Cultivating the Tao: Beginning with Meditation and Liver Experience

Chapter 70 Wangjiang Tower, seventh in the Tianjiao list?
As the imperial capital of the Dagan Dynasty, Tianjing City covers an extremely large area, with a radius of hundreds of miles and a population of over ten million. It is a veritable giant city.

In order to ensure the daily needs of the common people and dignitaries in the city, the imperial court specially dug nine water veins.

Every day, thousands of large and small ships transport fresh vegetables, grain, cloth and other daily necessities from outside the city into the city to meet the daily needs of the residents in the city.

Nine water veins criss-cross and run through the entire city, like nine water dragons guarding the entire imperial capital.

Wangjiang Tower, located in the outer city of Tianjing City, is the most prosperous restaurant in the outer city of Tianjing City. It is located along the Luojiang River in Tianjing City.

People in the restaurant can see the scene of the Luojiang River, so the word "Wangjiang" is used.

The scale of Wangjiang Tower is huge, it is a behemoth with 36 floors.

Every day, there is a constant flow of guests and visitors, and those who are qualified to enter are all wealthy businessmen and dignitaries.

Night falls.

The entire Tianjing City was still brightly lit.

The fluttering colorful ribbons, the red lanterns hanging high, the delicate flowers blooming on both sides of the street, the brilliant aura constantly blooming in the sky, and the crowds of people...

They all told Xu Yan about the grandeur of the Son of Heaven's Xunshou celebration.

This was Xu Yan's first time leaving the palace after the Son of Heaven's birthday celebration started, to experience the festive atmosphere up close.

however.

Do not know why.

Walking on the bustling streets of Tianjing City, Xu Yan didn't feel any joy in his heart, only endless strangeness and loneliness.

Just like Mr. Lu Xun said: "The joys and sorrows of human beings are not connected, I just think they are noisy."

Strange world, strange city, strange buildings, and strange people.

No matter how busy it is.

Xu Yan's heart was deserted, only strangeness and loneliness.

He seems to have never been integrated into this world from the beginning to the end, like a passer-by in time and space, he has been quietly watching the world, without thinking about the end and participation.

"Hey, Brother Yan, we've arrived at Wangjiang Tower!"

Suddenly, Fatty Hong's voice came, awakening Xu Yan from the strangeness and loneliness.

All of a sudden, there was a lot of people around him, which made him feel a little noisy.

Wangjiang Tower!
Xu Yan looked at the 36-story restaurant in front of him, which was like a pagoda, almost as tall as the inner city wall not far away, and nodded calmly.

If it was any other time, Xu Yan would definitely be curious and amazed by the restaurant in front of him.

After all, the castles in ancient society were not because they didn't want to build them taller, but because they were too technically difficult.

For a restaurant building as high as 36 floors and more than 100 meters high like the Wangjiang Tower in front of us, the materials used have already involved spiritual materials, otherwise it would not be able to support this height at all.

Similarly, for Wangjiang Tower to open such a high-standard restaurant in Tianjing City, especially near the inner city of Tianjing City, its background is naturally too simple.

This situation is the same as someone building a seven-star hotel in the second ring area of ​​BJ.

One can imagine the business of such a restaurant.

Most people probably wouldn't dare to enter the Wangjiang Tower when they came to it.

Seeing Xu Yan's calm face, Hong Hao's heart moved, and his evaluation of Xu Yan increased by three points again, and he felt more and more that he was not an ordinary person, not as simple as he appeared on the surface.

Xu Yan and the two had just arrived at the gate of Wangjiang Tower.

The steward of Wangjianglou who was guarding at the door had already walked over quickly, looked at Hong Hao, greeted him with a smile, and said, "Oh, I'm still wondering why the magpie was calling just now, it turned out that Lord Hong came." .”

As the eldest grandson of the Duke's Mansion.

Hong Hao is definitely the top playboy in Tianjing City.

At least among the younger generation, apart from the sons and grandsons of the imperial family, there are definitely not many who can have a higher status than him.

So a place like Wangjiang Tower is nothing to him, it is a regular visitor to Wangjiang Tower.

It would be strange if they didn't know the welcome manager of Wangjiang Tower.

Fatty Hong came in a menacing manner. Standing outside the restaurant door, looking at the oncoming steward, he raised his hand and said bluntly: "Leave the room on the top floor empty. Today I want to entertain brother Xu Yan."

The Immortal Room is the top floor of Wangjiang Tower, the top guest room, which can be used to entertain distinguished guests.

Because the 36th floor of the restaurant is extremely high, it is named the Immortal.

It is equivalent to the presidential suite of a five-star hotel.

It's just that one is for meals and the other is for accommodation.

The steward hurriedly said: "Master Hong, don't embarrass the villain. Today's Immortal House has already been booked."

"Furthermore, Master Hong is also aware of the situation in the Immortal's House. Generally speaking, it is booked at least one month in advance, and there may not be time. But Master Hong is different, and will leave it to Master Hong tomorrow."

Don't look at Fatty Hong who is usually amiable and easy to talk to in the imperial guards.

In fact, it also depends on the person.

The people in Yuqiansi are basically the sons of nobles, either the young masters of some duke's mansion, or the concubine sons of a certain duke's mansion, and there are even quite a few grandsons of dukes and dukes.

With so many people, one or two can still offend them.

Really need more people.

Not to mention Fatty Hong, the grandson of the Duke, even the crown prince has to weigh it.

Under such circumstances, it would be strange for someone as smart as Fatty Hong to speak up.

Even Xu Yan, in the Yuqian Division, was just dawdling, and dared not take too much care of the young soldiers under his opponent.

Now I'm outside, facing a restaurant manager.

Fatty Hong naturally didn't have such a good temper. He snorted coldly and said angrily, "Master, I understand the rules of Wangjiang Tower better than you. There must be a few vacant rooms for guests every day."

"Could it be that, you Wangjianglou think that I am not qualified to use it, young master?"

Those who run restaurants are naturally all smart people who are tactful.

Especially in top-tier restaurants, there must be some top-notch vacant rooms, in case a nobleman comes suddenly.

Now the manager of the restaurant told him that all the banishment rooms had been booked out.

Isn't this fooling him?
The steward's expression changed, and his originally smiling face froze all of a sudden, and he said sincerely and fearfully: "Master Hong, how dare you lie to me, but today's banishment rooms are really all booked out."

"Today, it was Zhao Qiye of the Luojiang faction who made the final appointment for the Immortal House. He is a master of a generation. I heard that it was to entertain his son-in-law back home, so he reserved the entire first floor of the Immortal House."

"I heard that Uncle Hong is the seventh-ranked supreme genius in the Divine Proud List of China. There are quite a few friends who are invited this time. The villain really can't afford to offend him."

"Seventh on the Proud Ranking, Luo Ying?"

When Hong Hao heard this, he also showed hesitation.

If it was another time, he would definitely not care about the list of Tianjiao Tianjiao.

Because the ranking of the so-called Tianjiao list, in his opinion, is completely for the self-entertainment of the Jianghu people, and there are very few imperial courts, and the elite children of the capital will compete for it.

And he also heard from his old man that it is not a good thing to be selected in the list of the most talented people in China, because some strength has been borrowed and needs to be repaid.

But at this time, the Tianzi Xunshou Ceremony has not yet completely ended, and there is still a competition for the Tianjiao of all races.

No matter how courageous Hong Hao is, he would not dare to clash with those Tianjiao list at this time.

Otherwise, if they were injured, would it be possible for him to step up?
Seeing Fatty Hong's hesitation, Xu Yan shook his head slightly and said, "Forget it, it's just a meal, even in the lobby."
