The days when I was an obstetrician and gynecologist in Chang'an

Whether 34, 35, and 48 count as meritorious service is up to the judge.

Li Dalang and his group of more than a dozen people, who are far away from Jiangnan Eastern Road, have already left Shule and headed for Xizhou (now Turpan area). (Chapter 595 of Book Friends Circle is accompanied by a simplified map of the Silk Road on Land)
Due to its superior geographical location, Xizhou is not only an important supply point for the overland Silk Road, but also an important transportation hub connecting the Eurasian continent.

Fortunately, the Tang Dynasty was strong and powerful. After the Gaochang Kingdom was destroyed, the place was renamed Xizhou.

Along the way, the weather has become warmer and warmer. After arriving in Xizhou, it is enough to wear only an outer shirt at noon.

Li Dalang and his party, who pretended to be leather merchants, are queuing up at this moment, waiting to enter the city.

As for the goal of Li Dalang's trip, the caravan of Shen Ji Company invested by Jiangnan Shen's family has already entered the city.

Because Shen Ji is a wealthy merchant, he is used to this business route. Although when he entered the city, Wang Bold, who had been sent by Li Dalang in advance and pretended to be a traveler who had returned home alone, was watching for a while, but he did not catch Shen Ji. What is the name of the business.

"Team Zheng, I can clearly see that although the steward delivered the purse to the policeman guarding the city gate as usual, the policeman who inspected it didn't even look at the goods.

I watched from the sidelines, as if this gave the purse, but it was just to be able to skip other people in line and check as soon as possible.

It doesn't mean that you don't need to check, or just close things.

I can see clearly that after the police leader collected the purse, although he gave the inspector a wink, the four of them were still conscientious and carefully inspected every car, even the tightly wrapped sack, which was also caught. Ask to open to view. "

Li Dalang nodded, he didn't say anything else to Wang Boldly, he just said: "It's okay, let's just remember what the Shen family's business did along the way, what happens afterwards is up to the judge.

Tired for more than half a month, you and them take turns to take a bath to relieve fatigue, and everyone eats pot together at night. "

"Captain, what about Shen Ji? Don't need to stare?

Otherwise, I'll go alone, I'm not tired, how can this journey compare to the pain we had when we ran thousands of miles back then? "

When Li Dalang heard Wang Boldly mentioning the events back then, he couldn't help but think of the dozens of people who died. After being stunned for a while, Li Dalang got up and patted Wang Boldly on the shoulder, "No need, this place is an important traffic road. Only here is the most prosperous place in the hundreds of miles nearby.

Shen Ji and his party will definitely rest here for at least two days, don't worry, we won't get lost. "

With Li Dalang's accurate words, Wang boldly let out a sigh of relief, "The team is saying yes, so it must be."

As Li Dalang said, Shen Ji and his group really stayed in the city for three days.

During these three days, besides arranging the missions and actions of the dozen or so people who came with him, Li Dalang personally took Wang Bold to follow up with Shen Fangming, the steward of Shen Ji and his group.

But Li Dalang and Wang Bold, who had followed Shen Fangming for three whole days, really didn't realize that he had talked with any suspicious person.

Going back to the rented place at night, Gao Haiping and the others, who were arranged by Li Dalang to do other things during the day, also explained their discoveries to Li Dalang one by one.

"It's nothing unusual. It's really normal for those who have arrived here to visit the Lang Guan who is in charge of business here the next day.

We are a small caravan in disguise, and when we come here, the managers of the shops owned by wealthy merchants will have a drink with Lang Guan.

It's not for any purpose, but it's just to be polite to the officials and family members, and if they are familiar with each other, if there are any edicts in the future, it's good to get first-hand news.

These are the methods commonly used by businessmen, but they are nothing. "

Li Dalang asked Gao Haiping: "Then what strange things did you find?"

Gao Haiping's hesitant look, not to mention Li Dalang, even the other people in the room were a little curious when they saw it.

"Just say, what you find strange is our breakthrough point."

After hesitating for a while, Gao Haiping told Li Dalang what he found strange: "Team leader, brothers are all real people, we were originally on a mission, and we are all honest.

However, when the merchants usually go to the supply area and have a good repair, there is no man who will not go to the flower building. "

However, Li Dalang, who was only 16 years old, understood what Gao Haiping was talking about when he heard the word "Hualou".

Gao Haiping didn't see contempt and disgust from Li Dalang's face, but saw Li Dalang's crooked brows and tightly pursed mouth.

Li Dalang guessed in his heart, but didn't say anything, he continued to look at Gao Haiping, before Gao Haiping could continue speaking, Wang Boldly answered from the side: "What's the matter?

Didn't the people from Shen Ji Company go to Hualou? "

"No, Shen Fangming and the other three managers didn't go. The four of them went to Lang Guan to drink with the managers of the other two companies on the first day. , spent a day in the only teahouse in the city, and in these three days, the four of them really didn't go to the flower house once!"

"Weird! This is definitely weird!"

Although Li Dalang didn't marry a wife, he understood the impurity of a man. After all, Li's family practiced medicine, and Li's family had an enlightened male elder like Li's father. He had told Li Dalang about the man's spermatorrhea since he was a child. , It is also said that men and women can conceive children only in Dunlun.

Although Li Dalang has never practiced it, he is rich in theoretical knowledge.

Therefore, what Gao Haiping said is indeed weird.

It would be reasonable to say that those servants in the caravan with little money would not go to Hualou, but Shen Fangming and the other three chief stewards did not go. If there is no problem with this, it is really unreasonable.

After listening to Gao Haiping's words, Wang Bold and the others discussed together.

"Could it be that Shen Fangming can't do it?

The rest of the stewards are afraid that they will provoke Shen Fangming's eyes? "

"Then how old is Shen Fang next year?"

Li Dalang answered Wang Boldly's question directly, "However, thirty to eight is not considered old."

Gao Haiping was a little older and married a wife and had children in his hometown, he continued Li Dalang's words: "Even if Shen Fangming really died at this age, he would not stop going to Hualou.

Even if it's just asking Hua Niang to drink and listen to music, she will definitely not refuse to go!
Such a matter is related to a man's dignity, Shen Fangming is 38, even if he is 78, he will definitely go. "

"There is indeed a problem!

Come on, tell me the itineraries of the other three stewards you have monitored for the past three days in detail. "

In other words, I have always wanted to travel to Xinjiang, it is really a good place.
