Chapter 26 Changyang Street Morning Market, Daqin version of mutton in clear soup!
Ying Gao felt a little worried!
After all, he had just gained some goodwill from Qin Wangzheng. Once he leaves the house, I am afraid that the goodwill will be in vain.
This time, the biggest reason why he was able to appear in Qin Wangzheng's study was because of Wang Ben's recommendation. Without Wang Ben, he wouldn't even be able to go to Xianyang Palace.
Great Qin has strict rules.
The majestic Qin Law has turned Da Qin into a war machine with strict rules and regulations compiled by Qin Law. If you have not lived in this era, you will not realize the power of Qin Law.
This is not the first time Yinggao has experienced this. If he wants to survive in this barbaric era, he must obey its rules.
Only those who are like Qin Wangzheng are qualified to call the shots and change the rules.
At this thought, Ying Gao couldn't help but feel a little less interested in going out. Just looking at the eagerness in Wang Li's eyes, for a moment, he didn't know how to refuse.
"Gao, nothing will happen!"
Wang Li smiled casually and took Ying Gao's hand: "I used to go out a lot, so it's okay!"
"Before grandfather and father arrive, you and I just need to return home in a hurry. Let's go——!"
"Walk!"
Ying Gao smiled bitterly, but he didn't say anything to Wang Li. Children at this age are at their most playful, and it was hard for him to refuse his only playmate.
Wang Li treated him very well, like a brother, and did not alienate him because he was just a third son.
Moreover, the first step in Ying Gao's strategy to win over Wang Jian was to open a gap in Wang Li. After all, compared to the two old foxes Wang Jian and Wang Ben, Wang Li was much more immature.
The most important thing is that Qin Wangzheng is now in his prime. Once he is able to win over the courtiers, Ying Gao will probably receive a crazy attack from Qin Wangzheng.
…
The sun climbed up to the high mountains in the east, and for a moment, the light swept across the world. The thin autumn wind stirred up light dust, and on both sides of the Weishui River, earth mist filled the sky and the earth.
For a time, the vastness enveloped the entire Xianyang Royal City. Walking on the street, Ying Gao felt that the air was full of earthy smell.
On the main road in the city, there were cars and horses rushing by, and officials were rushing to the government offices in cars and horses.
Farmers who worked at sunrise and rested at sunset went out of their homes to tell each other, went to their workshops, and went to the farmland in the suburbs outside the city.
At this moment, the entire Xianyang Royal City seemed to wake up all of a sudden, giving people a sense of vitality.
"Gao, this is your first time seeing Xianyang City, the big day in Chenshi, right?" Seeing Ying Gao's expression of surprise and confusion, Wang Li couldn't help but smile.
Hearing this, Ying Gao suddenly smiled.
This sentence made Ying Gao suddenly think of a sentence from later generations, have you ever seen the sky in Beijing at 3:30 in the morning?
However, in the previous life, only overtime workers and Beidiao could see the Beijing sky at half past three at this moment. Today, Ying Gaogui is the young master of the Qin Dynasty and has no worries about food and clothing throughout his life.
Of course he has never seen it!
However, what Wang Li said was somewhat inaccurate.
"Of course I have seen the sky of Xianyang Royal City in the morning, and I have also seen the bright sun at this moment, but I have never seen the officials, workers, and farmers running around..."
"Brother Li, where are you taking me?" After saying that, Ying Gao couldn't help but ask Wang Li.
"Go to the morning market on Changyang Street. There is a mutton soup there that is very delicious. It makes you want to eat..." Wang Li smacked his lips as he spoke, obviously missing the taste of mutton soup.
Changyang Street is a long street inside the south gate of Xianyang.
The north entrance and the royal city face each other across a forest of Populus euphratica. It is about three miles long from north to south and more than ten feet wide from east to west. The two-sided shop
Connected with shops and workshops, it is a large market with the largest concentration of local merchants in Qin State.
To the east of Changyang Street, across the rows of official residences, is the world-famous Shangshangfang Market.
The two cities are adjacent to each other. The Customs and Excise Department of the State Council named Changyang Street the national city and Shangshangfang, where Shandong merchants gathered, the outer city.
"Two bowls of mutton soup..." Wang Li, a regular customer, shouted to the proprietress.
"Coming!"
The store is not big, but there are many customers. In the small store, seven or eight people are sitting, waiting for the proprietress to bring the mutton soup, which makes Ying Gao look stunned.
This scene gave him a familiar scene of Chinese people queuing up to eat breakfast. For a moment, he felt a little friendly, and he was filled with emotions.
Unfortunately, Ying Gao knew that he could never go back.
"Take it easy, you two. It's not enough..." A little girl brought the pottery bowl and put it on the table.
Looking at the mutton soup in the pottery bowl, Ying Gao's eyes lit up. This was simply mutton soup, but he didn't recognize the green vegetables added to it.
When he brought it over, Ying Gao didn't smell the unique smell of mutton. He was a little surprised by this small shop. He knew that removing mutton was not easy.
But then Ying Gao felt relieved. If there was no secret recipe, he might not be able to open it in this world. After all, this is the largest Qin City in the world.
The aroma was so fragrant that Ying Gao could no longer bear it. He picked up the white cake on the plate, tore it into pieces in a pottery bowl, and ate it.
After eating a few bites, Ying Gao had to admit that the Chinese people have a talent for eating that no one else can match.
"Gao, why did you tear the white cake into pieces..." Wang Li thought that Ying Gao was born in the royal family and had never eaten mutton soup, so he couldn't help but said.
Hearing this, Ying Gao smiled carelessly: "Brother Li, it tastes delicious when eaten like this!"
…
After having breakfast on Changyang Street, the two of them felt very comfortable. After walking around Changyang Street, Wang Li pulled Ying Gao and said, "Let's go to the Weishui River..."
Hearing this, Ying Gao was shocked: "Brother Li, isn't it? If I don't take care of myself, I'm afraid you and I won't be able to get out of the city -?"
Ying Gao didn't want to leave the city at all. He knew better than anyone else that the current Xianyang Royal City was under the surveillance of Heibingtai when Lu Buwei made a fuss about "Lu's Spring and Autumn".
Their whereabouts must be extremely transparent in the eyes of Qin Wangzheng.
"Ha ha……"
Smiling and shaking his head, Wang Li pointed to the southeast and said, "There is a canal in the southeast of the royal city, which we call the Wei River..."
"Others must be waiting somewhere, hurry up and go..."
Hearing this, Ying Gao breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he did not leave Xianyang Royal City, he would almost accept it.
After all, as long as there is Xianyang City in addition to the palace, even if the King of Qin is dissatisfied with the government, it will not go too far.
Although Ying Gao is only eight years old now, he has already experienced many vicissitudes of life in his heart. He has experienced countless things in the world, so he naturally knows that some things are within the rules.
"Brother Li, what do you mean, is there anyone else besides us?"
Ying Gao's eyes flickered. He didn't think that Xianyang Royal City was very friendly to him. Compared with the unknown Xianyang Royal City, Wang Jian's mansion was safer.
He once heard a sentence and believed it deeply: Only the living people deserve to have everything!
