Three Kingdoms Swept the World II

Chapter 759
"Yedu, finally here!" Looking at the huge city wall in the distance, Pang Tong wiped the sweat from his face, and tightened the burden on his shoulders.

It was the first time for Pang Tong to have such a spacious and comfortable avenue. "If it wasn't for this kind of avenue, I'm afraid it would take several days to get to Yedu. I heard that there are such avenues in the north that four carriages can travel side by side. If you want to get rich, you must The prime minister's words about building roads are so philosophical! Even the sage Confucius couldn't say something so close to the people's livelihood."

On the avenue, there is a lot of traffic, and they have not yet entered Yedu, but the bustling crowds on the road can feel the breath of prosperity and prosperity.

Pang Tong sighed: "The most prosperous city in the south of the Yangtze River is Xiangyang. It has not been damaged by war for more than a hundred years, but compared with the prime minister's Yedu, there is still a big gap."

The prime minister's Yedu, which shows that Pang Tong knows that the prosperity of the North is inseparable from Qin Feng, but has nothing to do with the Han Dynasty and the imperial court.

"People say that being close to the countryside is timid, why are you crying when my brother went to Beijing to catch the exam?"

"I'm so excited. I think I've been studying hard for ten years, and I've been seeking recommendations from aristocratic families. I thought there was no hope in this life. The prime minister is really my Confucian sage teacher, and he gave us Confucian students a way to realize our ambitions. Wuwuwu... ..., don't persuade me, right here, I want to kowtow to the prime minister first."

When Pang Tong looked over, he saw a group of scholars, who looked at their clothes as if they were from a poor family, and they knelt down at Yedu on the side of the road.

Pang Tong sighed unceasingly, and said to his heart that depending on your age, you are older than the prime minister, and you are still an old man, but the prime minister is not old.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, don't block me from entering Beijing, drive~drive~."

A fine horse galloped past, bringing up a cloud of dust, blowing on Pang Tong's face, "Grandma is a bear, hurry to die!"

When Pang Tong entered the city, he was immediately lost in the prosperity of the prosperous age.

"This is where the prime minister lives, it's just different from ours."

"Of course, haven't you heard of it? People all over the world say that wherever the prime minister is, the troubled times will end, and the prosperous times will come, and the people will come to the end of their hardships."

"Well, you are so right!"

Pang Tong looked left and right, "Wow~, is this what the prosperous age looks like?" He also saw the description of the prosperous age in the book.

"It is forbidden to ride horses and gallop in the street market for non-official purposes!"

With a stern shout, Pang Tong saw the rider who galloped past on the road just now obediently dismounted under the scolding of the patrolling soldiers, with a bewildered look on his face.

"You're dumbfounded. I've never seen a big city." Pang Tong smiled secretly.

The rider was indeed shocked. He had only seen so many people in wars, and it was the first time in normal times.

"It's all about the prime minister's ability to govern the country. Hey, there is a bookstore. Since the prime minister promoted paper at a low price, books have been promoted. My son, go in and have a look."

"Tch~, what's so good about books, this prosperous and prosperous world depends on the prime minister's ability to manage the army!" The rider felt a headache when he saw the bookstore, turned and left.

It was noon, and Pang Tong was holding an ancient book, relishing it, looking for an inn while reading it.

An hour later, it was already afternoon, and Pang Tong still couldn't find the inn.It's not that there are few inns, but there are many inns, but now that the imperial examination competition has seen the population of foreigners skyrocket by tens of thousands, every place he goes is full.

After a while, Pang Tong came to another inn, "Gaosheng Inn, the name is good." He walked in.

"Are you staying in the shop?" the waiter saw Pang Tong coming in, and said sharply.

Pang Tong was reserved like a scholar, and asked politely, "Is there any room?"

"Is this room?" Xiaoer shrugged his shoulders, rolled his eyes, and looked at the shopkeeper next to him.

The shopkeeper stopped writing and looked at Pang Tong like him. He didn't feel much about his shabby clothes.He murmured: "Our place is already full of guests, and now it's the year of the competition..." Hao Sheng, the shopkeeper, looked at Pang Tong, and pointed out: "Our place is full of students who are going to Beijing to catch the exam."

The shopkeeper waved his hand, "No idlers are accepted."

"The people who live here are all juzi?" Pang Tong was quite happy, and said, "I'm also taking the exam?"

"Huh?" The shopkeeper's snack was startled, "You too?" He came out from behind the counter and looked Pang Tong up and down.

Pang Tong didn't know what he meant, he followed the shopkeeper's eyes and looked at his clothes, wondering what the old man was looking at?

The shopkeeper smiled, "There are rooms, but they are used all day long..." He looked as if you couldn't afford to live there, and asked, "Can't you live there?"

"Ah? Yiguanqian!" Pang Tong was taken aback. His parents died in his early years, and he had been boarding at his uncle Pang De's house. Now that he has grown up, he has come out to seek a career. How can he have so much money.Hastily asked: "It's too expensive, is there a cheaper room?"

"Cheaper ones? Of course there are~ Don't." The shopkeeper raised his finger and pointed outside.

"Bie's house, Bie's house is already full." Pang Tong said.

The shopkeeper rolled his eyes and put his hands together, "Then it's over, and I can't help it."

"This..." Pang Tong looked helpless.

The shopkeeper shook his head contemptuously, and was about to ask the waiter to kick him out.At this time, the shop waiter whispered something instead, the shopkeeper's eyes lit up, he nodded, and he turned around and said, "Boy, you are lucky, there is still a cheap one... It can be said that it is the cheapest in the whole capital."

Pang Tong was overjoyed. Just as he was about to speak, he saw a young man with a big belly coming out of it. The gorgeous and splendid Confucian shirt on his body was almost bursting with fat.

"Master Zhang!" The shopkeeper left Pang Tong and ran over, his face just now burst into smiles.

"I'm tired of reading, so I'm going to go out for a walk." The plump Mr. Zhang hummed.

The shopkeeper hurriedly opened the way, and continued to say: "Young Master Zhang is too right. It's boring to read books all the time. Let's go for a stroll outside. Do you need to prepare a sedan chair? I will prepare dinner for you later." Although Young Master Zhang ignored him, He still chased after him and continued: "Master Zhang, I will keep the door open for you later." Although Mr. Zhang had disappeared into the crowd on the street, the shopkeeper still shouted: "I...I am here personally, guarding for you." At this……."

It was really the first time that Pang Tong saw such a flattering person.

The shopkeeper sent Mr. Zhang away, turned around and saw Pang Tong's strange eyes, his face turned cold, and he stared.

Pang Tong also put away his weird eyes, and smiled, "Shopkeeper, didn't you say there is still a room?"

At this time, a burly man came outside, "Shopkeeper, do you have any room?"

The shopkeeper said: "Yes, there are, but we only accept juzi here."

"That's just right, I'm rushing for the exam too." The man said.

The shopkeeper was taken aback, and looked him up and down for a while. It seemed that he had a stern face and a well-dressed outfit, without any elegance.I don't want to rush for the exam, but it looks like robbery, "You are also rushing for the exam?"

"Martial arts." The man was a little annoyed.

Pang Tong looked over and found that the person who came was the rider he had met before.

The shopkeeper laughed happily, "Well, one Wen Ju and one Martial Ju, it's a match."
