Chapter 456 The Imperial Capital
While speaking, Zhao Humeng, Tang Gu Wende and his party walked out from the civilian warship berth and entered a wide street on the outskirts of the imperial capital. Horse-drawn carriages drove on the street, dazzled the onlookers.

"No. 68, Linghai Street!"

As soon as he came out of the civilian warship berth, Meng Tang took Zhao Hu and Gu Wende to the row of carriages in front of the gate of the warship berth, said to the nearest carriage driver, and then talked with Zhao Hu. Hu Gu Wende boarded the carriage together.

The interior of the carriage is well decorated and has a lot of space. There is a small wine rack for the passengers to drink a glass of wine.

"Zhao Hu, let's go back in a carriage first. Your entourage, my entourage will take them back in a public carriage, so you don't have to worry!"

After boarding the carriage, Meng Tang saw Zhao Hu cast his eyes on the guards outside the carriage, and said with a smile on his face.

Hearing Meng Tang's words, Zhao Hu nodded lightly, and turned his gaze to the bustling streets of the imperial capital outside the carriage.

While Zhao Hu and Meng Tang were talking, the carriage started slowly under the driver's driving, and galloped on the bustling street, and ran faster and faster, while the wine rack inside the carriage was full of The glass of red wine did not spill a drop of wine, which showed that although the carriage was driving fast, it was very calm.

"Zhao Hu, let me give you a brief introduction to the imperial capital of our Ultron Empire. The imperial capital has an area of ​​about [-] square kilometers and is divided into three urban areas: the core area, the inner city area, and the outer city area. The core area is the Imperial Palace. It is the place where the imperial family and their relatives live. It is the most luxurious and the smallest area. Everyone living in it has great power. The inner city is where the imperial nobles live. Luxurious and quiet, there is no pass in the core area and the inner city, and no one is allowed to enter it. There are elite soldiers guarding the entrances to the streets leading to the core area and the inner city.

The outer city is where the people of the empire, businessmen, and various departments of the empire are located. It is the largest and most bustling city. It is almost a city that never sleeps. Whether it is day or night, there is a huge flow of people.

The outer city covers an area of ​​more than 9 square kilometers and is divided into four main areas: the Imperial Yamen Area, the Imperial Commercial Area, the Imperial Industrial Area, and the Imperial Residential Area.The imperial yamen area is where the imperial military department, the imperial civil affairs department, the imperial punishment department, the imperial industry department and other major government offices of the empire are located, and it is also the area with the largest concentration of imperial soldiers and imperial officials.

The Imperial Business District is a place where imperial merchants gather and trade. The famous merchants of the Empire have established stores and stable trading channels in the Imperial Commercial District. There are a wide variety of commodities in it, allowing the people of the Imperial Capital to purchase commodities from most parts of the Empire. , very convenient.

The Imperial Industrial Zone is the area where the important factories of the Empire are located. Important factories such as the Imperial Battleship Manufacturing Factory, the Imperial Communication Jade Talisman Factory, the Imperial Arms Manufacturing Factory, and the Imperial Steel Factory are all located in the Imperial Industrial Zone!It is no exaggeration to say that the Imperial Industrial Zone has gathered the top industrial talents of the Empire and produced the top industrial products of the Empire.

The residential area of ​​the empire, as the name suggests, is the place where the people of the empire live. Every day, wealthy businessmen from all over the empire enter the residential area of ​​the empire. There are also many residents of the residential area who are forced to sell their houses and live in other parts of the empire.

Zhao Hu, I will arrange the accommodation for you and your entourage today. We are having a good drink. Tomorrow, you will follow Wende to report to the Imperial Army Headquarters and wait for the imperial royal family's reward! "

Seeing Zhao Hu looking at the bustling street outside the carriage with curious eyes, Meng Tang smiled slightly and began to briefly introduce the situation of the imperial capital to Zhao Hu.

Of course, Meng Tang's introduction to the imperial capital was very simple. If Zhao Hu wanted to know more about the situation in the imperial capital, he had to go out and experience it himself.

"Thank you, Uncle Meng, for taking care of him. If Uncle Meng needs Xiaohu in the future, Xiaohu will do his best to help Uncle Meng and satisfy Uncle Meng!" Zhao Hu immediately said sternly when he heard Meng Tang's words.

The carriage was traveling very fast, and within a quarter of an hour, it began to slow down slowly and stopped on the side of the street.

"Master, No. 68 Linghai Street is here!" The coachman's voice sounded in the carriage, and it was clearly heard by Zhao Humeng, Tang Gu Wende.

"Let's go down!" Hearing the coachman's voice, Meng Tang said with a smile on his face.

While talking, Meng Tang got out of the car first, followed by Zhao Hu, and Gu Wende got out of the car last.

"This is my mansion, Zhao Hu, you lived here during your time in the imperial capital!"

Meng Tang took out ten silver coins from his body and handed them to the coachman, letting the coachman drive the carriage away, he said to Zhao Hu with a smile on his face.

Hearing Meng Tang's words, Zhao Hu quickly thanked him, and turned his attention to Meng Tang's mansion.

Mengtang's mansion is very large and imposing. The heavy gate is painted with glittering gold. The pillars on both sides of the gate are carved with exquisite circles. On both sides of the gate are five elite guards with sharp weapons, guarding the gate. Security of the mansion.

At the same time, the one-foot-high courtyard walls on both sides of the gate of Meng Tang's mansion extended outwards, and Zhao Hu couldn't see the edge at a glance. From this, it can be seen that Meng Tang's mansion is very large.

Of course, Meng Tang is also very rich. Otherwise, the low-priced housing prices in the imperial capital are so expensive, how could Meng Tang have such a large independent courtyard!

After crossing the threshold of the gate, under the leadership of Meng Tang, along the wide avenue, after turning a few turns, Zhao Hu came to an independent small courtyard.

The small courtyard covers an area of ​​more than 300 square meters. Dozens of tall sycamore trees stand quietly in the small courtyard. The luxuriant branches and leaves stretch out like huge umbrella leaves. Dozens of stone chairs are placed Under the tall plane trees, it is for people to rest and enjoy the cool.There are more than a dozen small three-story buildings densely built around the small courtyard, and it is not a problem to accommodate hundreds of people.

"Zhao Hu, how do you feel about this courtyard? If you feel good, you and your followers can live in this small courtyard!" After entering the small courtyard, Meng Tang looked at Zhao Hu with a smile on his face. Said.

"This small courtyard is very nice! I am very satisfied! Thank you Uncle Meng for taking care of me!"

Looking at the environment of the small courtyard, Zhao Hu showed a satisfied smile on his face, and quickly thanked him loudly.

"Just as long as you're satisfied! I've already asked someone to prepare a banquet, the three of us have a good drink!"

Seeing that Zhao Hu was satisfied with the small courtyard, Meng Tang showed a happy smile on his face, patted Zhao Hu on the shoulder and said.

After finishing speaking, Meng Tang pulled Zhao Hu, left the small courtyard, and walked towards his living room. Gu Wende beside him had a faint smile on his face, and he was not dissatisfied at all because Meng Tang ignored him.

Under Meng Tang's leadership, Zhao Hu came to Meng Tang's living room. A round table was quietly placed in the middle of the living room. More than ten small dishes, several pots of fine wine, and three sets of bowls and chopsticks had already been placed on the round table. Above, more than ten beautiful maids stood quietly beside the living room, serving Zhao Humeng, Tang Gu Wende and the others at any time.

On the wine table, Meng Tang and Gu Wende kept pouring wine on Zhao Hu, but Zhao Hu couldn't refuse, so he had to keep drinking, and finally passed out drunk on the wine table, was cleaned up by the servants, and the maid waited for him to take a bath , put on clean clothes, and was carried to the best bedroom in the courtyard to rest.

"Wen De, this Zhao Hu doesn't look special to me! Why do you make me value him so much! Could it be that he can really bring me millions of times in return!"

After Zhao Hu was served by the servants and left, Meng Tang and Gu Wende came to Meng Tang's study, and Meng Tang couldn't help asking Gu Wende softly first.

"Brother Meng, don't you understand my character? I am very optimistic about Zhao Hu and take good care of him. I believe that he will be famous in the empire in the future and bring me millions of times in return! You are my friend, so I will pull you in and give you a chance to be kind to Zhao Hu, if you grasp it well, then I have nothing to do! I just hope that you will not regret it in the future!" Hearing Gu Wende said Meng Tang's words with a calm expression.

"Since you said that, Wende, I won't think too much. Take good care of Zhao Hu and make him satisfied!"

Hearing Gu Wende's words, Meng Tang nodded lightly and said.

Anyway, his Mengtang family has a great career, so it is very simple to take care of Zhao Hu. Even if there is no reward, it doesn't matter. If, as Gu Wende said, Zhao Hu becomes famous in the empire in the future, he will be prosperous.

While Meng Tang and Gu Wende were talking secretly in the study, Zhao Hu also woke up from the hangover, drank a glass of sober medicine, got up from the bedroom, walked to the window of the bedroom, opened the curtains, and looked outside. The bright moonlight scattered on Zhao Hu's body, as if covering Zhao Hu with a layer of silver sand.

"Why did Meng Tang and Gu Wende treat me so well? Could it be that I have something they want in me?"

Looking at the sycamore tree under the moonlight by the window, Zhao Hu asked himself softly, recalling Gu Wende and Meng Tang's care for him.

Both Gu Wende and Meng Tang have stronger identities and strengths than Zhao Hu. Do they have any close relationship with Zhao Hu? Zhao Hu is very puzzled by the special care they take for Zhao Hu. He secretly suspects that he has Gu Wende and Meng Tang in him. Tang two people want something.

It's just that this doesn't make any sense. If I have something that Gu Wende and Meng Tang need, wouldn't it be enough for them to just grab it?I can't figure it out!Can't figure it out!Why!Don't think about it, maybe the two of them are optimistic about their potential!Zhao Hu shook his head and continued to sleep.
