Yinzhou has a city area of 1,720 feet and an area of 70 miles. It is connected to the Luoshui River in the south and Mount Jia in the north. It is adjacent to seven cities in the Four Kingdoms. Cars are like flowing water and horses are like swimming dragons. It is the largest city in the world.
The majestic city tower is more than twice the size of Chengyang County. There are eleven city gates downstairs. Except for the middle one, which is not accessible to ordinary people, the other gates are full of porters and carriages.
Qingyu looked up at the tall tower. She had been fleeing for nearly half a year, and now her destination was just around the corner. Even though she had always been calm, she could not hide her inner joy at this time.
Seeing that the faces of the senior brothers and sisters were also full of excitement and heated discussions, Qingyu even felt that he had returned to Xuanmen for a moment. Every year when each peak selects disciples, the senior brothers and sisters are so lively and happy.
She couldn't help but thought to herself: God was kind to her for once. With her brothers and sisters by her side, at least there were people to share the joys and sorrows with, which was very good.
...
After entering the city, maybe because I was carrying something on my back, as soon as I passed the city gate, I was stared at by several house bugs waiting at the door.
"A few of them have come from afar. Are they here for fun or to join relatives?"
"Looking at the noble faces of these people, they must be coming to the city to do big business. I have a Feng Shui treasure house on hand, which is suitable for people like you, the guest."
"I have more houses here than they do. They are all available in cheap, expensive and good locations near the market. As long as you tell me what kind of house you want to live in, I will take care of it and find it for you."
"Do any of you need accommodation?"
The four houseworms followed closely around the "head of the family" Zhufeng, and you and I introduced each other as best we could. Qingyu saw the senior brother running away like a snake and a scorpion, and completely lured the houseworms away.
She continued walking slowly, and not long after, the senior brother came back panting, very proud, "Throw them all away."
Thanks to my cleverness, these people who are stationed at the city gate to solicit business are specifically trying to prey on outsiders like us and deceive us into not knowing the market. If we fall for this trick, we will suffer big losses."
"Look how proud you are." Hong Tao choked him, "With me, the best fortune teller in the world, how can I tell whether those people are good or bad? Huh~"
Seeing that the two of them were about to bicker again, Qingyu simply took out the last candied haws of sugar haws from Xuannv Hall.
Shi'an was worried that she would fall, so she held him with one hand and persuaded Zhufeng and Shi'an, "Senior brother and two junior sisters, you are all top-notch, no matter how good you are, if you insist on judging your superiority, this will not embarrass both our ancestors."
?"
Wen Ya was annoyed by the quarrel between the two of them, so she said coldly: "There is a slang in the world: a jar full of water makes no sound, but a jar half full of water jingles."
The two of them fell silent immediately. Qingyu pursed her lips and smiled secretly, feeling that this strange Yinzhou City was quite friendly.
The streets are full of people and cars, and there are many shops along the streets. They are all more lively and prosperous than Chengyang County, and even the streets are half a foot wider.
Qingyu was surprised. Chengyang County was already very prosperous before, but now compared with Yinzhou City, Chengyang County looks much inferior. As expected, each city is bigger than the other.
Seeing a restaurant, Qingyu stopped and said, "To have a good lunch today, let's go to the best restaurant in the city."
"The best?" Zhufeng was a little confused. When did the junior sister become a person who could enjoy herself? However, such a junior sister had a bit more fireworks, and said, "I'll go find out."
Then he went to the surrounding shops and came back soon with the news, "Some people say that Fengle Building is the best, while others say that Baxian Building is the best. There are also Changqing Building and Yicheng Building. I guess these four are almost the same.
it's the best."
Qingyu thought for a while, "Then go to Fengle Building."
"I asked you about the way." Zhufeng said, "It's a bit far from here. It takes more than an hour to walk. It's near the inner city gate."
"It's a pity about our carriage." Wen Ya said regretfully.
Shi'an saw a carriage and called him over with a greeting.
After riding a carriage for half an hour, we arrived at Fengle Building. The four-story building stood out among the surrounding houses. It was very majestic and even more daunting. Ordinary people could not afford this kind of place.
It was noon at this time, and guests were constantly coming and going at the entrance of the restaurant. You could hear the noisy and busy sounds before you even approached.
Qingyu's family stepped forward, and the waiter at the door immediately greeted him warmly, "Guests, do you have any reservations?"
Everyone was stunned, and Wen Ya showed displeasure: "Why, you can't eat without a reservation?"
The waiter hurriedly laughed along with him: "The guests misunderstood. Seeing how noble you are, I thought we had booked private rooms on the second floor and above, and invited the guests inside.
There are a lot of people in our shop, so we need to wait for a while before we can get a seat. The guests, please go to the side courtyard first, have some melon seeds and snacks, and wait for a while. As soon as a seat is available, I will call you immediately."
While talking, he introduced Qingyu and his family into the building, and shouted: "Five distinguished guests." Immediately, another waiter ran over to greet them with a smile, "Guests, please come this way."
Qingyu observed all the way, and found that the first floor was very large, with at least thirty guest tables, and each table was occupied. There were at least a dozen waiters, but all of them were so busy that their feet did not touch the floor, but they were also very agile and clever.
No one will be left out in the cold.
Follow the waiter through the lobby to the left, out a small door, and into the side courtyard.
There were also many people in the side courtyard chatting, eating melon seeds and waiting. When someone came in, some people took a curious look.
Qingyu noticed that most of these people were dressed in bright clothes. In comparison, their family's coarse linen clothes seemed a bit out of place.
Sure enough, before sitting down, someone said in a strange tone: "This Fengle Building is really not as good as before. Now anyone can enter. I remember when I came to Fengle Building, all the people who could enter were dignitaries and famous people in the city."
Rich households.
But what about now? Any ordinary person can enter, but I think the threshold of Fengle Building has been trampled down by these people and is worthless."
His words were too obvious, and now everyone's attention was drawn to Qingyu's family.
Some people are indifferent, some people have nothing to do with themselves, some people are happy to watch the fun, some people are angry, and some people feel the same as the person who speaks, with disdain written on their faces.
Wen Ya couldn't stand the anger the most, and was about to get angry, but the waiter, with a smile on his face, poured tea, water, a stool and melon seeds, and enthusiastically invited them to sit down, "Guests, wait a moment."
"Boy, we spend money to eat here to enjoy ourselves, not to get into trouble. You guys haven't swept this place clean, and my shoes are all dirty. How can I eat comfortably?"
In the courtyard, the voices gradually became quieter.
The waiter smiled and said, "Sir, maybe your shoes are dirty. Look, our place is clean. There is no dust on the soles of my shoes. How can I say your shoes are dirty?"
."
"What are you talking about? You are a waiter's servant, why are you so proud of yourself here?" The man was offended, and he slapped the table and roared.
The waiter was not scolded, and his tone became even better, "Sir, our store is big and can accommodate all guests, but everyone who comes through this door is a distinguished guest.
Guest, if you feel that this place is too crowded to accommodate your size, please go out and turn right, as the place is spacious."
There was a burst of laughter from the crowd, and the person who was looking for trouble blushed with shame and anger, threw up his sleeves and left in a hurry.
Qingyu was a little confused, but she heard someone next to her say that it turned out that when she left the house, she turned right and there was a stable. She chuckled and couldn't help but look at the waiter a few more times.
"Second brother, you're right." Wen Ya took out ten copper coins and wanted to hand them to the waiter, but the waiter waved his hands and said with a smile, "I can't do that." Then he whispered in front of the Qingyu family: "We are Fengle.
With the support of the Si family, Lou is not afraid of these troubles."
