Now that you have thought of it, just do it. If there are dates or there are no dates, it will be a big deal.
After eating at the Eight Immortals Table for the first time, Su Ren finally found some traces of modern life. However, the quality of the food was hard to agree with. In order to get rid of this precarious life, Su Ren decided to go to Wenshui County.
See how the people of Han Dynasty live.
Su Ren is not an expert in business, and he doesn't know who to sell to when he has something. When he was about to enter the city, Leng Jun suddenly asked: "Su Ren, can we really sell this thing?"
Su Ren raised his neck: "I don't want to talk about whether I can sell it or not, but let me ask you whether these things are useful or not?"
Leng Jun nodded. Su Ren pretended to be like an expert, with a sly smile on his face: "Isn't that enough? Since it's so easy to use, why doesn't anyone buy it? Doing business doesn't mean you can buy something if it's good, it mainly depends on who we sell it to?"
"Then who do we sell this to?"
Su Ren thought for a long time. Things are vaguely expensive, but not rare things can be sold for a good price. At this time in the Han Dynasty, just after the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, etiquette was very important in the hearts of scholar-bureaucrats. Things like what he created
Although this thing is useful, it does not respect the etiquette and law. It is definitely not suitable to sell it to the scholar-officials. If the scholar-officials don't like it, then who else? Naturally, it is the businessman.
"Don't worry about this. You will know it when you enter the city."
Leng Jun sneered: "You won't know when the time comes, which will make us carry these things in vain."
"Stop talking nonsense and let's go!" Su Ren took the lead in carrying an imperial chair and walked out the door, completely ignoring that there were three chairs and a table left for Leng Jun.
As soon as he stepped out of Laojun Temple, a strange feeling immediately spread from the soles of his feet throughout his whole body. He didn't know whether this step was good or bad, and he hoped it wouldn't deviate too far from his plan.
The chair was quite heavy. It was made of pure wood and weighed at least twenty kilograms. After walking only two miles, Su Ren couldn't hold on any longer. He threw the chair to the ground and sat on it.
Look at Leng Jun in front of him, who is not only carrying a table, but also carrying three chairs. He looks like a normal person. This is their overnight achievement. According to Su Ren, these things can be exchanged for a month's rations. Leng Jun also
I don't know where I made the mistake, but I actually believed Su Ren's lies.
"Have a rest! I really can't walk anymore!"
Leng Jun said with disdain: "You are like this, and you still go out. I really don't know if the brains of you rich people are broken."
"Okay, don't pretend to be a rich kid. My family really has no money. Apart from food and clothing, we don't have any spare money."
"You're not rich yet. If you can have enough food and clothing, you're already living like a god!"
Su Ren was too lazy to quarrel with Leng Jun. Anyway, in Leng Jun's eyes, he was the representative of a playboy, and it was useless no matter how much he proved it. Seeing that it was already past noon, the two of them stood under a big tree on the roadside.
The Eight Immortals table is set up for eating solid food.
The roadside is full of paddy fields, and it looks green. There are a few farmers working in the paddy fields, shirtless and sweating under the scorching sun. The road is not an asphalt road. It is not only narrow but also bumpy, and the stones on it are very restless.
.My original pair of hiking shoes can no longer be worn. The soles of the cold cloth shoes are too thin. Walking on this kind of road, my feet will soon be worn out.
Taking off his shoes and looking at the blisters on the soles of his feet, Su Ren grinned. He smiled coldly: "When you come back from the county town, your feet will be dead. Otherwise, I will chop them off for you now to avoid trouble."
"
"Go away, stop making sarcastic remarks, and quickly find me a thorn."
Leng Jun pulled out a thorn from the thorn next to him and handed it to Su Ren. Su Ren gritted his teeth and opened the blisters on the soles of his feet one by one. The clear water inside flowed down his heels. After picking out his left foot, he picked up his right foot. On the way.
The few pedestrians turned to look at these two weirdos.
The people of the Han Dynasty were really thirsty. If they were thirsty, they could just find a house and ask for a bowl of water. Everyone had no food left, so they didn't have to eat. They waited until the sun turned west, and then the two entered the city.
.
Leng Jun was a little depressed. He went to the city at night to sell something. There was not even a shadow of a ghost on the street. Who could he sell it to? It was said to be a county town, but it was actually just a small fort. It was surrounded by a city wall made of mud.
It's not very high, with two or three streets. Judging from the signs on the doors, apart from a few restaurants, there is only one pub left, and the other shops don't even have fronts.
The county government office is located in the northwest corner of the county. It is very remote. It is estimated that not many people come here. The best places in the county are not the shops of merchants, but the residences of the gentry. These are the real rich people, roughly
It is estimated that the smallest gentry household has a house area of more than 1,000 square meters. Which rich man in modern society has this ability?
Su Ren's heart felt very cold, it seemed that his plan to sell the Eight Immortals Table to the businessman was about to go bankrupt.
Leng Jun began to mutter: "I asked you to go faster, but if you don't go, it's good now. The city gate has been closed. We are trapped inside and we can't get out even if we want to."
Su Ren's scalp went numb after hearing this, and he wanted to use something to stop Lengjun's mouth, but there was nothing handy, and besides, he couldn't beat him. In such a small town, there was no place for entertainment at night.
In vain. Except for a few beggars on the roadside, these two guys carrying large items soon became the targets of the city patrol.
"Stop! What are you doing?" The gentleman grabbed Su Ren's collar and looked the young man up and down: "I think you are unfamiliar, tell me honestly, where are you going to steal?"
Su Ren had never been caught like this before. He was almost choked to death. Looking at the sword hanging from his waist, his legs felt a little weak. He quickly smiled and said: "Selling things, oh no, giving things away."
of!"
"One day I'm selling things, another time I'm giving things away. I think he's not a good person at first glance, so I'll tie him up!"
Leng Jun was about to step forward to take action, but was stopped by Su Ren. He continued to explain with a smile to the gentlemen: "Brothers, wait a minute, wait a minute, we are really giving away things, these things are for
The county magistrate is definitely not a thief. Really, he came all the way and his feet are broken. Look, look!" As he spoke, Su Ren sat down on the ground and took off his shoes.
Gongrentou quickly stayed away. He hadn't washed his feet for dozens of days. The smell when he took off his shoes was really unbearable. Even Leng Jun covered his nose. Looking at the Taishi chair that Su Ren had thrown aside, Gongrentou didn't know.
What is this thing for? I just feel strange. Where the emperor is far away, the county magistrate is the local emperor here. No one can offend the county magistrate.
The gentleman waved his hand: "What is this?"
Su Ren quickly got up from the ground, moved the Taishi's chair upright, and sat down on it: "Chair, Taishi's chair! This is where you sit!" That was so flattering to the extreme, it was disgusting to see.
The gentleman was also a soldier. I thought these two boys were carrying some siege equipment, but unexpectedly they turned out to be two strange pieces of furniture. Wenshui County is located in a remote place, and bandits are rampant around it.
There are Southern Barbarians and Qiang people to the west. I have been a public servant here for several years and I have to be careful about many things.
Su Ren got up from the Grand Master's chair, smiled at Gongtou and said, "It's really a chair. Try sitting on it. It's very comfortable!" While speaking, he took Gongtou's arm and dragged him to the chair.
Amidst the nervous expressions of several other officials around him, Su Ren reluctantly pressed his head on the chair. He sat on the Taishi chair and rocked it twice, and it turned out to be very stable. Only then did his head believe that this thing was really furniture.
.
"Who gave this to the county magistrate?"
"Master Chongxu from Wenling Laojun Temple, this is his disciple!" Su Ren pulled Leng Jun in front of him.
Seeing that Leng Jun was dressed as a Taoist boy, Taoist Master Chongxu was considered a local celebrity. When he was fine, he drew a charm and applied water to save many nearby people. Of course, more people were killed by his treatment.
The public servant looked at Leng Jun. Leng Jun had an aloof look on his face. He remembered that the last time he and his master came to Wenshui County, the name of Taoist Laojun Guan Chongxu was very resounding in Wenshui County. Everyone respected him wherever he went.
Only half a year later, he was almost imprisoned again. Mr. Rentou knew Leng Jun, so he believed Su Ren's words.
He took back his sword and rolled his eyes: "From now on, I will deliver things during the day. It's not peaceful at night. Okay, let's go!"
Watching the patrolling man turn a corner, Su Ren wiped the cold sweat from his head. He didn't expect that the public security in the Han Dynasty was so good. In Wenshui County, which is a big place, there are still people patrolling at night. You know
In his time, not to mention small counties, even big cities would not see many policemen at night.
While Leng Jun was packing up the furniture that was about to fall apart, he asked Su Ren: "Do you really want to give it to the county magistrate?"
Su Ren smiled: "I'm afraid he's the only one who can afford it. Look at the rich people around here."
"Didn't you say it was a gift? Why did it become a sale again? Are those words in your mouth true?"
"I want to beat you up. This sentence is absolutely true!" Su Ren didn't like Leng Jun's inquisitive approach: "Damn it, go to the county magistrate's house first. If you don't give me money, I have to give it away."
.”
He smiled sternly: "A few officials scared you silly, and you dare to ask the county magistrate for money. I don't believe it!"
The county magistrate's residence is actually the county government office. Generally, the front half of the county government office is the office space, and the county magistrate's residence is behind it. On the way to the county government office, the two of them discovered that a mansion next to the county government office was actually larger than the county government office.
It's even more luxurious. The dark door and rows of copper nails are shining in the light of the lanterns on both sides of the porch. The gatehouse is almost like a carved beam, which is countless times better than the row of low thatched houses on the front street.
.
"Eh? What kind of place is this?" Su Ren stopped and looked up at the plaque on the top of the gate tower. There were two seal characters with flying dragons and phoenixes. After twisting and turning for a long time, he only recognized that the one on the right was the character "福".
He glanced coldly: "It's the county magistrate's home! His family occupies half of the entire Wenshui County. The paddy fields and dry fields we saw on the way here belong to their family. This old guy is not a good person. Sometimes he is in Wenshui County.
The county speaks more rudely than the county magistrate."
Su Ren giggled and made a face at Leng Jun: "Come on, our products are marketable."
