Chang'an, I yearn for it, the carriage slowly marches towards the most awesome metropolis in history.

According to the coachman's introduction, Wangjiazhuang is about [-] miles away from Chang'an City, and if there is no traffic jam, it will arrive in half an hour.I looked around and saw that there was no such thing as a meter in the car, so I believed that there would be traffic jams even in the Tang Dynasty.

Ying originally planned to ask some servants to accompany me, but I immediately refused.A man, and then take a few men to go shopping together, it's a big spoiler!Anyway, this is also my first time in Chang'an, sharing my first time with a few strong and strong elders...

So, there were only me and my second daughter in the car, and my dragon-slaying sword.Outside the car was the second-ranked driver in Wangfu, and the number one driver was taken away by Ying.

The second daughter sat beside me obediently, and she really put a lot of effort into dressing up for her little appearance.The second daughter and Ying have the same make-up technique, so I ordered the second daughter to wash her face before going out.The little girl already has the capital of youth, so why make herself like Dou Erdun.

The shock absorber of the carriage was not good enough, and it wobbled, trying to doze off.The car is spacious, but there are no pillows. "Second daughter, lie down here!" So I laid my pillow on her body, it was soft and fragrant, very comfortable.It may be that I am too heavy, or it may be that the carriage is bumpy, but the second daughter kept humming and chirping in a low voice. 'Crack', I raised my hand and gave her a small buttock, the sound was gone, and I could take a nap.There is no time to dream, the carriage has already stopped outside the Xuanwu Gate, it seems that the ranking of the coachman list needs to be updated.

The second girl's body was stiff and she couldn't get up.I massaged her a few times with my own hands, and Lima worked.Seeing the second daughter staggering out of the car with her waist supported, I felt that I was too much, and I didn't know how to be sympathetic at all, so I had the idea of ​​slapping the driver a few times, because his eyes were very lewd. ".I held back, the lone man and the widow were in the same car, and the posture of the lady getting off the car was very intriguing, as long as it was a man, he would have his own ideas.

"Let Rang~ Rang Rang" A bullock cart passed by me, and the hustle and bustle of the city suddenly sounded in my ears.

You were a city dweller a month ago, don't be so worthless!I warned myself, but my expression betrayed me deeply.The young master is about to fall ill, the driver thought about it.The second girl hurriedly took out the Jiuhua Yulu and put it under my nose.

"What are you doing? Don't you lead the way?" I scolded the driver, "I don't understand any traffic rules. Are you afraid of being fined by the traffic police for parking on the road?" No. [-] woman, why doesn't she have any common sense?"

"Where is the young master planning to go? The villain can lead the way, right?" the coachman smiled charmingly.

"Where is the excitement going, let's take a good look around today!"

"Then invite young master to get in the car, let's drive there quickly." The coachman hurriedly raised the curtain.

"No, young master, I want to take a walk, you lead the way by the horse's head." I turned around and picked up the second daughter, and put her on the side of the car, "Sit well, don't fall off." The second daughter nodded.

It is worthy of being an international metropolis. In terms of scale and planning, it is undoubtedly the demeanor of the Kingdom of Heaven.

The chessboard-like streets are wide and straight.The streets in Chang'an City are arranged in a north-south and east-west direction, perpendicular to each other, straight and upright, wide and open-minded.There are 11 avenues in the north-south column and 14 avenues in the east-west line. These avenues cut the Waiguo City into 109 rectangular squares, and the two cities in the east and west, and the two cities in the second city each occupy two squares.

There are drainage ditches on both sides of the streets in the whole city, and elms are planted, the avenues are straight, the trees are shaded, and the city appearance is very spectacular.The saying in Bai Juyi's poem to Zhang Ji: "From Qinghuai Street to Bajiufang", reflects this situation.In the palace city and the imperial city, there are many kinds of sycamore and willow trees.

Closed workshops and centralized markets.The structure of the square is closed, each square has a wall, and the doors of the houses are all inside the square.Except for the 36 squares in the south of the imperial city, which only have two east-west gates and only east-west avenues, all other fangs have four gates, east-west avenues, east-west avenues and a north-south avenue.There are two gates on each side of the east and west cities, and each has two east-west streets and two north-south streets, forming a "well"-shaped street and dividing the market into nine squares.The four sides of each side are facing the street, and the shops are set up around all sides. The shops of the same industry are concentrated in one area, which is called a row. There are 220 rows in the East City (some say 120 rows), and the "stores in the city" in the West City are the same. East City".The West Market is the place where Chang'an City's businesses are concentrated and the center of Chang'an City's economic activities.

Chang'an was the most populous city in the world at that time. "Complete Works of Han Changli; On this year's power suspension election certificate": "There are as many as (chi) millions of people in the capital today." , go out and have nothing to do.” It is said that Chang’an has a population of one million. "Chang'an Chronicle" contains: Chang'an and Wannian counties have a total of more than 8 households.Based on one household with five members, Chang’an’s residents are 40. Adding the royal family, forbidden soldiers, servants, monks, nuns, Taoists, crowns (female priests), ethnic minorities, and foreign guests, the population of Chang’an can reach one million.

Strolling on Zhuque Street, which is about 150 steps wide, is refreshing (the central axis street of the North and South Gates is 155 meters, based on evidence). I think that if the World Cup is held in this era, more than a hundred games can be held on Zhuque Street at the same time, as long as the players If you can hold on, all the games will be over in one day, and there is no need to fly around in a plane.

"Young Master, this is the West Market, which is the busiest place in Chang'an City. Please wait a moment, Master Hou, the villain will park the carriage, and the horses should be fed."

"Oh, why don't you take a rest, just wait here, I will go in with my second daughter for a stroll"

"Yes! Lord Hou." The coachman looked very happy. Like all drivers, he likes to be herded.

I took the second daughter out of the car, took her by the hand and mixed into the crowd.I was afraid that there would be too many people to crowd her out, which is fundamentally different from the Xianshi uncle in Dongying manga.

It's so prosperous. Looking at the neat antique buildings with oriental characteristics on both sides of the street, I immediately entered the role.

The things of ancient times are made meticulously. No matter how big or small the vendors are, the quality is only higher than that of the 21st century.I only turned half a street, and I carried more than ten kinds of bags in my hand, adding a lot of gadgets to Ying and the second daughter, which made the second daughter excited, and the snatcher carried things with me.Naturally, she can't compete with me, I still have the quality of a gentleman who goes shopping.So I bought a stick of malt candy, stuffed it to the second daughter, and took her hand.

"Bring me that hairpin. It's not one, it's next to it. Hey! I can get it myself."

boss:………………….

"Second girl, put it on and let me see."

The second daughter was at a loss and looked at me cautiously.

"Hurry up! What porcelain!"

Among the two daughters wearing hairpins...  

The boss muttered in the back: This master has a bad temper, so be careful when serving him.

"Come, take a picture." I moved the bronze mirror and asked the second daughter to appreciate it. "How is it?"

nod

"That's all, boss, how much?"

"Guest officer, this is authentic Wenzhou... No! Hetian jade, look how well your wife wears it,..."

"Stop talking nonsense! How much is it?" Since you are Lord Hou, you have to look like Lord Hou.

"Hui Ke Guanhua, two qian silver, look at the handwork, the texture..."

I pulled the hairpin off the second daughter's head, held it backwards, and made a cs like holding a dagger. I glanced at the hairpin, then at the boss, and remained silent.

"Guest officer, this is a good item. I'll give you a discount, nine for one cent!" The boss hurriedly acted generously.

"This is also called a discount? Who are you fooling?" I gave him a disdainful look.

"Hehe, I'm at a disadvantage, five for one cent!" The boss laughed along with him.

Seeing that I didn't speak, "Guest officer, do you still think it's expensive?"

"It's more than expensive, it's like drawing my blood!"

"Guest officer, you are exaggerating. Seeing your imposing manner and extraordinary appearance, you must be a person of status. Don't talk about it, it costs three yuan!" The boss gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

I shook my head, dissatisfied

"Master, I only earn you a penny for this price. I swear on my personality." Seeing that I was indifferent, "Grandpa, one penny and two pennies can't be less, you will always take care of it."

"Well, it's about the same. This hairpin is worth the price." I weighed the hairpin in my hand.

"Okay~ I'll wrap it up for you now," the boss finally let out a sigh of relief.

"Slow!" I shouted

The boss stared at me in horror, "Who are you?"

"The hairpin is a good hairpin, and the price is right, but I don't have so much money with me." I said helplessly, the second daughter listened to my words, pulled my sleeve, and signaled that I had enough money. "Go!" I glared at her.

"How much money did you bring with you?" the boss asked feebly.

"I have a penny on me" I shrugged

"Sir, don't be joking. With your outfit, how come you only carry one penny? You add one cent, one penny!"

"I want to give you money too, but I can't do anything"

"Well, even if I lose money to open an account today, I will pay for every penny!" The boss insisted.

"I haven't eaten yet," I said

"It's easy to talk about eating. I'll introduce you to Tongfu Building opposite. It's clean, plentiful, and delicious!"

"I mean I need to leave a penny for dinner" I explained

"Grandpa, uncle, you're playing tricks on me!" The boss was a little anxious

"I haven't fooled anyone since then, look at my face, how sincere is it?"

"This old man, big brother, I really can't see how sincere you are. I admit the loss, 9 yuan is 9 yuan, I just ask you to let me go..."

"Okay, I'll pay now." I looked at the hairpin carefully, "Why is there a hole in this hairpin?"

"Please do me a favor, this hole is for "arranging" flowers, without this hole, it wouldn't be sold!"

"I think there is something wrong with the color of this hairpin, it doesn't look like Hetian jade."

"My lord! You can question my personality, but you can't question my hairpin!" The boss ran away, "This is real!"

I don't believe it,

"Okay, here is the purchase order. Look carefully. The place of origin: Hetian! Is there any problem?" The boss took out a large stack of receipts from the counter and showed them to me.

"I'm sorry, it seems to be real Hetian jade, but wait... The purchase price: four cents of silver"

"No, no, this is the price without tax. I am a Wuhao businessman, and I pay taxes actively!" The boss explained anxiously!

"Hey, you did such a black heart in broad daylight... You have deeply hurt the innocent heart of a consumer!"

"No, master, even if it is 6 cents of silver, you have to give me a way to survive, right?"

"Yes, it's only five cents. You adults have a lot, let the little ones go? I beg you!"

"Second daughter! Pay!" I turned around and greeted the second daughter.The second daughter took out an ingot of 10 taels of ingot from her bosom, and slapped it on the table, making the boss tremble with anger.

"What are you looking at? No change!" I gave the boss a hard look.

"Wait!" I continued

"Ancestor! Don't, can I close the door today?" The boss has a sign of hemiplegia.

"What's the price of this pair of bracelets?" This one is for Ying.

"You always look at it, and you can give me any money. You can go after you buy it."

.................................... ..

After taking the things, he gave the boss a sympathetic look, and told the two daughters, "Go to Tongfulou!"

The second daughter looked at me adoringly, just like the female colleagues in my unit looked at Beckham's mother.This girl even dared to look up at people, making progress!

"What are you looking at! Let's go!" I know that the second daughter likes this tune.

After ordering a few dishes, he forced the second daughter onto the table, and they were about to start eating.

"Is this Brother Zihao?" Someone nearby greeted him.

Do I have any acquaintances in Chang'an?He turned and looked in the direction of the speech.
