On the cement road from Shanhaiguan to Tianjin, four-wheeled carriages drove on the spacious cement road. Although it would snow and freeze in winter, the cement road from Tianjin to outside the pass was extremely important, so the imperial court also
Specialized people clear the snow on the cement road every day to ensure the smooth flow of the road.
Batu rode his beloved white horse and followed the large team while looking curiously at everything on both sides of the road.
This was his first time in the pass, his first time seeing the world outside the grassland, and he was full of curiosity.
Beside him, his good friend Agudamu also looked curiously at the extremely busy scene on both sides of the road. Even in the middle of winter, it was still very busy here.
Agudamu is about the same age as Batu, and he is a good friend whom Batu met on the road.
"Batu, these Han people's houses are so beautiful."
Agudamu looked at the neat rows of new houses on both sides of the road. People here in Beizhili are the first to enjoy the fruits of capital development because they are close to the Beijing-Tianjin area. Their living standards and income levels are the best in this era.
Highest.
The houses built here are also based on the houses here in Tianjin. They are made of reinforced concrete, with glass windows and ceramic tiles, which makes them look very beautiful.
"Whatever is beautiful can't be moved, that's it."
Batu curled his lips and said, looking at the factories on both sides of the road. The factories were extremely busy. There were large chimneys emitting thick smoke, and four-wheeled carriages were constantly coming and going. People were coming and going on the road. It was very busy.
lively.
There were too many people, many more than what Batu saw in Shuanghu Town.
"There are so many people~"
Agudamu said with a sigh.
"There are indeed a lot of people~"
Batu also nodded.
"I heard that we can arrive in Tianjin today. I heard those Han people say that Tianjin is the most prosperous city in the world. I don't know if they are just bragging."
"Who knows, we are grassland people, free-flying eagles, and no matter how prosperous the city is, it has no attraction for us."
The two young men were chatting while watching.
Gradually, there are more and more roads connecting the concrete roads. Spacious concrete roads extend in all directions. In the field of vision, chimneys reaching into the sky stand on the earth, emitting black smoke, making the winter sky appear darker.
, as if the sky was shrouded in black smoke.
Soon, a huge city could be vaguely seen appearing in the field of vision, with neatly arranged factories, dotted here and there, tall buildings, and countless horse-drawn carriages and ox-carts coming and going on the roads.
There were also those hurried pedestrians, making it an extremely busy scene.
"This~"
Seeing everything in front of them, Batu and Agudamu couldn't help but open their mouths wide and their eyes stared straight.
At this moment, not only the two of them, but all the people who came to Tianjin for the first time couldn't help but look curiously. Even Anmul, who was sitting in the carriage, opened the curtains and looked curiously at the huge
of Tianjin City.
Getting closer and closer to Tianjin City, and gradually starting to enter Tianjin City.
Entering Tianjin City from the north is the industrial zone. Walking on the spacious cement road, factory buildings are on both sides of the road. A large number of horse-drawn carriages are constantly transporting various things back and forth. There are also the roar of machines and teams of teams.
Workers in uniforms also looked at the grassland team walking on the road with curious eyes.
The industrial area is very busy. There are cement roads extending in all directions. The neatly planned industrial area looks very good.
After walking through the industrial area, you quickly entered the commercial area and residential area.
In these places, there are many tall buildings, extremely busy streets, and bustling commercial districts. Everything makes these people from the grassland look straight.
There are really too many people in Tianjin, too many.
Just passing by, they saw more people on the road than they had seen in their entire lives. When passing by a commercial street, the entire commercial street was full of people, a sea of people.

The New Year is coming soon, and goods from all over the world are gathered here. Rich Tianjin people are busy preparing New Year's goods, and shopping has become a fashion in Tianjin.
There are many, many, many buildings, and they are very, very high.
High-rise buildings stand tall on the ground. Wherever you look, there are high-rise buildings everywhere. Although they are only five or six stories high, they are nothing compared to the high-rise buildings of later generations.
But in this era, the most appropriate ones are high-rise buildings. For these prairie people, they are very high and there are many of them.
In residential areas and commercial areas, land is valuable. Almost all houses have such a structure, neatly planned, and look very spectacular.
"This is Tianjin?"
Agudamu's eyes were dumbfounded, and he looked at everything on both sides of the road with great curiosity. It was very fresh, as if he had entered a new world.
“It’s so lively.”
The same goes for Batu. He didn't give Tianjin a second thought at first, but now he is suddenly attracted by Tianjin's prosperity.
Batu's sister Qiqige, her eyes were also shining, and she kept looking at the women wearing beautiful clothes on the street, and then at the various colors and patterns of cloth and clothes in the shops on both sides of the street.
I started to dislike the clothes I was wearing.
too ugly!
It's too rustic.
Compared with the girls in Tianjin, I feel like a country bumpkin.
Look at the girls here in Tianjin. They are all wearing beautiful clothes. They are all carrying small bags. At this moment, they are talking and laughing while watching the marching grassland team.
The mighty grassland procession passed through the urban area of Tianjin and arrived at the Tianjin Port, where they parked at the empty piers that had been cleared for a long time.
There were ships already waiting. As soon as the prairie people's team arrived, workers immediately began loading the prairie people's things, horses, cattle, sheep, etc. onto the ships.
This time I went to Australia with a limited number of cattle, sheep and horses. Most of the cattle, sheep and horses had been sold, leaving only strong cattle, sheep and horses. They were not many in number, but they were the treasures of the prairie people.
Among them are ewes and mares specially used to give birth to lambs and ponies.
"The steamed buns are here~ The steamed buns are delicious~"
A bold hawker came to the pier carrying his own load and started doing business with constant shouts.
"Baozi~"
"Baozi~"
When Batu heard this, he immediately became energetic. His favorite thing to eat was steamed buns, so he immediately took his sister Anmul to the hawker and sold a dozen steamed buns for dozens of pennies.
“Delicious, so delicious~”
“It’s even more delicious than the steamed buns from Shuanghu Town.”
While eating, Batu also shouted out.
However, before the buns were finished, other vendors came immediately carrying their own burdens, selling steamed buns, steamed buns, noodles, and various small business people also came to the pier.
The prairie people who came to Tianjin for the first time were very curious about all this, and after walking all the way, being able to eat hot food also made many prairie people dig into their pockets.
In the blink of an eye, all the hawkers' goods were bought by these prairie people, and each of these prairie people were sweating profusely from the food and said they were so satisfied.
The food here in Tianjin is cheaper than the small towns where the prairie people live, but the taste is much better, which makes the prairie people who are used to eating beef and mutton very happy.
"Dang~dang~"
I tasted Tianjin's steamed buns, noodles, steamed buns, etc. at the pier. Soon it was time to set off. Bells rang. A ship was already filled with all kinds of things and was about to leave for Australia.
.
"Batu~Qiqige, it's time to get on the boat!"
Li Dahai's voice came, and Batu and Qiqige also hurriedly walked over.
Taking a boat for the first time, Batu and Qiqige were both full of curiosity and freshness. Standing on the deck and looking towards Tianjin, they could clearly see the prosperity of this huge city.
The entire Tianjin port is extremely busy. At every pier, large ships are moored quietly. Here in the harbor, a large number of ships are waiting to enter and exit the port.
The docks are equally busy, with workers loading and unloading goods, and fishing boats returning bringing back mountains of fish; further away, in the bustling neighborhoods, there are endless high-rise buildings...
All of this is deeply imprinted in their minds and will be unforgettable for the rest of their lives.
"Dangdang~"
The bell rang, the sails were raised, and the ship slowly left the dock and sailed towards the sea.
Batu, Qiqige, and Agudamu, like other children, were lying on the side of the deck, looking back in the direction of Tianjin. In their field of vision, the bustling and huge city gradually became blurred, and in the end only a piece of it was left.
The huge outline disappeared completely.
Looking at the sea ahead, between the water and the sky, seagulls are flying, making bursts of calls, and a huge fleet is chopping the waves on the sea, with thousands of sails going forward, heading towards an unknown world and an unknown life.
“Australia, I don’t know if it’s a good place or not?”
Batu looked at the sea in front of him. The young man's thoughts were far, far away.
