The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 379 Chapter 370 Eight: Selling Cordyceps Five Youngsters Enter the Capital
When I arrived at the gate of the city, I saw eight guards standing on both sides of the gate.These soldiers held long guns and stared at the passing pedestrians and vehicles coming and going.

It does not interfere with people's comings and goings, people come and go in an endless stream, horseback riders, burden bearers, onion sellers, garlic sellers, donkey drivers, people in sedan chairs, people of all colors, etc. Everyone has it!

The five brothers got off their horses, and led the horses straight to the city of Chang'an.

When I entered the city, I saw, ho!This Chang'an city really deserves to be an important place for the capital!

The whole city is extremely prosperous, and there are so many people walking on the wide street, and there are businesses and shops next to each other, you can't see the end at a glance!

There are horse riders, sedan chair riders, runners, load bearers, all kinds of characters!

The whole street was full of traffic, it was extremely lively.

This is the first time for Duan Changqing, Duan Changhong, and Duan Changhao to come to the Great Wall, and they were already speechless by the bustling capital.

The three of them looked stupid for a long time.

Duan Changqing looked at this bustling city and said with a smile: "This capital city is too prosperous, if you don't come, you won't even want to see it in this lifetime!

It seems that we are still frogs at the bottom of a well, people who have never seen a big market!

Well, I have opened my eyes today, alas!This life is finally not in vain! "

Duan Changhao laughed and said, "Brother Changqing, the frog in the well is just the three of us!

Brother Tieniu and our brother Wuji have been to this capital several times, and they have seen this big market before.

The three of us have never seen anything at this age!

How embarrassing it would be to say this! "

The five chatted while walking, and under the leadership of Duan Wuji and Tieniu, they went straight to Naqiu Palace.

When he arrived at the gate of the mansion, Tie Niu said to his brothers: "You watch the horses for me, I'd better call the gate."

Saying that, Tieniu jumped off the horse, threw the horse's reins to Duan Changqing, and walked straight towards the gate of Prince Qiu's Mansion.

As soon as Tieniu climbed the stone steps, the soldier guarding the door immediately shouted loudly: "Hey! Who are you? Don't you know that this is the important place of the palace!

Ordinary idlers are not allowed to approach. "

Tie Niu laughed when he heard this.

"Everyone, how are you! Are we the idlers waiting? You guys really have no eyesight.

Whoever came in and informed me that Duan Tieniu from Taiyuan Mansion in Shanxi and Duan Wuji asked to see each other.

Hurry up and let us know, so we don't have to wait outside. "

"Oh! I said friend, what a big tone! Who do you want me to report to? You didn't make it clear, do we dare to report indiscriminately?"

Tie Niu laughed and said, "Anyone can report! Whether it's the old prince or the young prince, we all know them. You can report to whoever is at home. What's the matter!"

"This is what you said, then I will go in."

"Well, go, go at ease, it's okay."

The soldier turned around and went in.

After a short time, Qiu Tianbao ran to pick it up from inside.

"Brother Tieniu, Brother Wuji! Hey, all five of you brothers are here, hurry up and invite them inside!"

Seeing that the young prince spoke so politely to them, the gatekeeper couldn't help but look at these people with admiration!

Qiu Tianbao said with a smile: "These guards are newcomers, they don't know you well, otherwise, they would be very polite to you.

Hey, you guys have to show me clearly, these five people are distinguished guests of our Prince Qiu's Mansion, from now on you have to be more polite to them, otherwise, don't say that I, Qiu Tianbao, are not guests to you.

Did you hear clearly? "

Who are these gatekeepers? They are all carefully selected people who are exciting, and they are all extremely smart people.

Hearing what the young prince said, his attitude suddenly became very polite.

These people ran down the steps one after another and brought their horses over.

Duan Wuji saw it and said with a smile: "Brother Qiu, let them put these bags of goods away for us, but don't make any mistakes!"

Qiu Tianbao smiled and said: "Don't worry, anything is put into my Prince Qiu's mansion, it will be indispensable!

You guys will put these bags and stuffs into the warehouse of our palace and put them away in a while. I will ask you guys what happened. "

"Young prince, don't worry, there won't be any mistakes."

After finishing speaking, these people led the horses into the palace through the corner gate.

Qiu Tianbao said with a smile: "Several virtuous brothers, please come with me, today we brothers must have a good chat."

The five brothers followed Qiu Tianbao into the palace, and went straight to the study where Qiu Tianbao was.

After entering the study, Qiu Tianbao ordered the maid to bring fragrant tea, and the six of them chatted while drinking tea.

Chatting and chatting, let's get to the point.

Qiu Tianbao looked at Duan Wuji and Tieniu with a smile and said: "You two virtuous brothers, what's the matter with you when you come to the capital this time?

Just say so, and see if our family can help. "

Duan Wuji said with a smile after hearing this: "Brother Qiu, we brothers do need your help with a small matter when we come here this time.

A few days ago, my brothers and I went to Tupan Country and bought three hundred catties of caterpillar fungus from their place. I plan to ask you to help sell it.

Let's go home for a few pennies to celebrate the New Year! "

Qiu Tianbao laughed and said, "My virtuous brothers, your abilities are really great! You've all gone abroad! It's really amazing!"

Duan Wuji smiled and said: "Brother Qiu, there is nothing we can do!

How many of our brothers can compare with you, you live at the foot of the emperor, a land of great gangs, and you can get a salary every month.

If you say that our brothers don’t want to do it and want to earn a little money, you say what we eat and drink this New Year’s Eve! "

Qiu Tianbao smiled and said: "Well, what you said is also true!
It is true that there is no way to survive without earning two small money!

How about this, wait for my father to come back, and when he comes back, I will discuss with him what to do.

Ordinarily, this matter is not difficult for us.

My virtuous brothers, since you are here, let's stay here for a few more days.

It's nothing to do, you go to the street, and you can see this bustling capital by the way. "

Tie Niu laughed and said: "This time we are here, so we have to bother you in your palace for a few days.

Brother Qiu, don't think we are troublesome! "

Qiu Tianbao laughed and said, "Brother Tieniu, what are you talking about!

Why do you and my brother say such things!

Our buddies, that is the fateful friendship! "

Tieniu smiled and said, "Brother Qiu, I was joking with you just now, don't take it seriously!"

"Well, that's about it.

Why!Five virtuous brothers, are you walking around the street right now?Or rest in my palace?

My royal father has something to go out today, and I can only come back at night. I will be on duty to patrol the city in a while, so I can't accompany you for a long time, please forgive me. "

Duan Wuji laughed when he heard this.

"What's the matter! You are a person with an official position, unlike us who are like wandering clouds and wild cranes, no one will take care of you.

Big brother Qiu, you can't do it at this point.

How about this, my three older brothers are coming to our capital for the first time, we two brothers will take them out for a while, it's hard to come to the capital, how can we not go out for a walk!

Brother Qiu, if you should be busy, you should go. My brothers and I will go out immediately. "

"Well, that's all right! Just take a stroll in this street.

The capital is so big, none of you can finish shopping in ten or eight days! "

Duan Wuji waved at his brothers.

"Brothers, let's go, let's go out for a walk.

Don't come to the capital once, we've never been anywhere!

If you say that, won't people laugh at us! "

The brothers stood up immediately after hearing this, bowed their hands to Qiu Tianbao, and then walked out of the room.

Five people walked out of Prince Qiu's Mansion and wandered on the street.

After a short time, this Qiu Tianbao also came out of the palace. Qiu Tianbao confessed to the soldiers guarding Qiu Wang's mansion: "The few who went out just now are my good buddies. They will come back in a while. Don't make things difficult for any of you." them.

Did you all hear me clearly? "

"Little prince, we all understand, you can go at ease, we will follow suit."

Qiu Tianbao nodded, and left Qiu Wangfu on a handsome horse.
