Chapter 874 Prosperous Pingwan
Chapter 874 Prosperous Pingwan
On the border of Pingwan County, a donkey cart struggled to pull goods and people walked panting.
Seeing that the road was getting better and better, Emperor Jing's mood gradually became brighter.
Before entering here, there were dirt roads everywhere, but the roads now are obviously paved by hand.
Moreover, many people were walking in the direction of Pingwan County on the road.
This official way is already full of popularity.
What's even more amazing is that there are still many people riding bicycles!
Looking at this wonderful scene, Emperor Jing couldn't help asking: "I didn't expect that there are so many people willing to ride bicycles outside the capital? This road doesn't seem very comfortable, does it?"
Fangzheng nodded.
Why is it uncomfortable? Although it is a repaired dirt road, the current level of bicycle shock absorption is not good for this kind of road.
Those people riding bicycles must be uncomfortable watching the bumps and bumps.
It is estimated that after riding for an hour or two according to this virtue, the basket should be smashed...
But... As for why he still has to ride because he feels uncomfortable, Fang Zhengyi probably has some ideas in his mind.
Perhaps the people in this city get information quickly and know that bicycles are popular in the capital.
So everyone is willing to follow the trend, even if it is uncomfortable, they are willing to ride. After all, this represents some kind of upper-level 'trend'.
In later generations, there are people who play on the West Coast, with dozens of pairs of pants on their legs.
There are even more shameless people in the public, wearing overalls and pushing their shoulders against the air.
So this situation is very normal!
Fangzheng said together: "Look, there are so many people here who are willing to ride bicycles, at least it means that they have some money in their hands. Otherwise, on such a road... how can anyone sell such impractical tools?"
"Hmm! That makes sense!" Emperor Jing's eyes lit up, and he began to carefully observe the passers-by.
After a closer look, I found that many people were in a hurry, but they were not in a sick state.
This situation was enough to relax Emperor Jing's heart a lot.
Emperor Jing cheered up a bit, with a smile on his face: "I don't know what the scene in the city is like? By the way, I heard that many guards and soldiers have the bad habit of secretly exploiting the people. We won't pay any tolls when we enter the city." ?”
"Probably not."
Fangzheng thought about it carefully.
He once wrote a letter to warn Yang Fengfan that he must not engage in travel expenses.
In addition, Jin Yiwei was sent in to supervise the matter.
If Yang Fengfan is obedient enough, and Jin Yiwei's deployment has not changed, then it shouldn't be a problem.
When they got under the city gate, the crowds gathered in one place, which seemed very lively.
Many people lined up to enter the city.
Fangzheng stood on the donkey cart and watched with his neck stretched. Seeing that the people in front of them entered smoothly one by one, he couldn't help but feel relieved.
It seems that everything is fine, at least judging from the situation outside the city, Yang Fengfan's management is not a problem.
When finally Jingdi and others were in line, the four got out of the car and entered the city.
Suddenly, the soldiers guarding the city stopped the donkey cart with their hands.
"Just a moment."
Fangzheng was startled, and hurried forward and said, "Master Jun, what's the problem?"
The city guard stroked his chin, walked around the car, and asked, "This is your first time here?"
Emperor Jing frowned slightly.
What are you afraid of?The people in front all entered smoothly just now, and when they saw that they had a donkey cart, they stopped here.
This little soldier must have acted this way because he saw that they had money to fish for.
Sure enough... some things can only be discovered by private visits to Weibo.
Seeing the city guards approaching, Fang Zheng squeezed out a smile and said, "That's right, it's indeed our first time here, Mr. Jun, can you accommodate me?"
As he spoke, Fang Zheng handed over an apple.
Seeing the apple, the city guards showed contempt: "Who will be buried? I sent you this apple?"
presumptuous!Dare the lion open its mouth?
Anger arose in Emperor Jing's heart, and he was ready to go forward to argue immediately.
Unexpectedly, the officer said again: "Take it away, take it away! It's your first time here, and you don't understand our rules. You look like you want to set up a stall in the city, right?"
"Let me tell you, if you want to set up a stall, you can set up a stall. There is a special place for you to set up a stall. After you go in, ask someone to ask you first, don't mess around."
"Also, you donkeys, if you shit on the street, you have to clean it up, or you will be fined, understand?"
Emperor Jing stopped in his tracks and blinked in confusion.
Huh...not exploitative?It turned out to be a kind reminder!
Fangzheng heaved a sigh of relief: "So that's the case, thank you, Mr. Jun! Eat an apple."
The city guard waved his hands impatiently: "Go in, don't stand here in front of the people behind, who will eat your apples."
When the group entered the city, Wang Erzhu felt a little unbelievable, and moved to Fang Zhengyi's side: "Hey, Lu Zhong...the people here are really polite!"
Fangzheng said disgustedly: "Big tongue, can you stop calling me Mr. Lu? Mr. Lu."
"Yes, it's Mr. Lu, let's find a place to set up a stall!" Wang Erzhu looked around with light in his eyes.
Pingwan County, this is Pingwan County!
Although the city looks about the same size from the outside, there are far more people inside than Xinzhang County!
The roads in the city have been repaired and it looks very smooth.
There are many more people riding bicycles than outside the city.
There are stalls selling goods everywhere, and passers-by who talk to them.
There is order in the chaos, a bustling and prosperous scene. Although it is morning, the world is already full of fireworks.
Even Emperor Jing couldn't help being secretly surprised.
From the current point of view, the following people are still reliable in their work.
Fangzheng looked around and was quite satisfied, and said to Wang Erzhu, "Let's find a pawn shop first and pawn your ring."
Although Fangzheng mentioned it to him as soon as he was on the road, but now when he talked about Wang Erzhu, he suddenly felt a little bit reluctant. It would be better if he sold it: "My son, this is not suitable for you to give me? Or I will keep it." .”
Fangzheng sneered in his heart.
He could see through that small point at a glance.
Keep it, you are poor and have no capital, how can I sell apples?
"Let me tell you, it's not easy for you to sell this thing. The best place is the pawnshop! And the business here is prosperous, and the pawnshop must be trustworthy. There is nothing more suitable than this. The ring can't be eaten or played. Wouldn't it be better to exchange it for silver?" ?”
"Of course, it's yours, and you can deal with it as you like."
Wang Erzhu hesitated for a moment, then took out the ring from his chest.
"Then listen to you."
Since Mr. Lu said so, let's do this, anyway, he doesn't understand anything.
It can also be seen along the way that Mr. Lu's family has a good heart.
The business in the city is indeed more prosperous than ordinary cities visible to the naked eye, and there are also a lot of pawnshops.
The four of them found a pawn shop that seemed to be quite large without much effort.
Entering it, you will see a row of unusually high counters, separated by wooden fences, leaving only a small window.
With Fang Zheng's height of more than 1.8 meters, he had to look up to see the boy in the pawnshop.
At the moment, many people are working inside.
Wang Erzhu licked his lips, feeling a little nervous, this was the first time he had seen this scene.
Although he was a little stage frightened, the thought of having Fang Zhengyi behind him gave him another two points of courage.
When he walked to the counter, before he could speak, the servant behind the counter was already condescending, lowered his eyes and said in an indifferent voice: "Redemption or pawn?"
The people here are rustic, and you can tell by their virtues that this is their first time here.
Although this kind of customers are very foolish, but they don't make much money, the boy is a little impatient in his heart.
Wang Erzhu opened his mouth, stumbled and said, "Dang...dang."
"Bring things up."
Wang Erzhu nervously took out the ring and was about to hand it up.
Unexpectedly, a hand stretched out from him: "Bring it, I'll help you."
