The Golden County Magistrate
Chapter 164
Cai Da Dangjia seemed to understand the first part, but he heard it clearly at the end. He was surprised and said, "What! Bigger than the capital?! How is this possible!"
The capital is the largest city in Sili and the largest city in the whole Great Zhou!
It is said that from east to west, it is more than seventy miles!
Qingshan County is just a small county, and it is also a low-level county. According to the system, it should be smaller than Lianggu County.
At best, the upper limit is about ten miles in diameter.
Such a place actually wants to compare with the capital? Isn't this a joke!
"Why is it impossible? Lord Chen said that the Third Ring Road will be completed in three years at most. By then, let alone the capital, there may not be a city as big as ours in the world!" The old man said proudly.
"Old man, don't joke! Qingshan County is so small, and you dare to compare with the capital!" Cai Da Dangjia laughed.
"Hmph, how big? Now the distance from the east gate to the west gate is about sixty miles." The old man snorted.
The head of Cai burst out laughing.
The old man said dissatisfiedly: "Girl, what are you laughing at? Don't believe what I said? Okay, then go and see it yourself!"
The head of Cai smiled and thanked him, turned back to the carriage, and asked the driver to turn the horse's head and return to the road.
Of course she didn't believe it. These country people have never seen a real big city?
Not to mention the far ones, the near ones are probably not even seen the Longzhou Prefecture, but they talk nonsense and brag without thinking!
Sixty miles in diameter?
The capital is only this size!
The prefecture Wuyin City is only thirty miles in diameter. How can Qingshan County dare to say that it is twice as long as the prefecture!
And this is just the length of the diameter.
If the size of the area is calculated, it is several times larger than Wuyin City!
The carriage returned to the road and continued to move forward along the road.
Along the way, Cai Dadangjia saw dozens of places that were constantly under construction.
Most of them were paving roads, but some seemed to be building houses.
However, the construction method was very different from what she knew. She looked confused. If she hadn't been in a hurry, she really wanted to stop and take a closer look.
"Boss, it seems to be... here!"
The driver suddenly said, his voice trembling.
At this time, Cai Dadangjia was looking at a street vendor selling a kind of fruit she had never seen before.
When she heard the voice, she turned her head and looked forward. In an instant, her body was shocked and she said in a lost voice: "This... what is this place!"
About two hundred feet ahead, a towering city stood like a mountain!
The road they were on was facing the city gate.
The gate tower on the city gate was more than five feet high, and the high city walls extended to both sides, all the way to a distance that could not be seen by the naked eye.
Cai Dadangjia was speechless.
She has been to many places for business.
This scale of city wall, let alone the county town, let alone the prefecture Wuyin City.
Even the capital, the scale of the city wall is far less than here!
"This is... the wrong way? This can't be Qingshan County!" Cai Dadangjia murmured.
"Boss, are we still going?" The driver was also doubtful and turned his head to ask.
"Don't go into the city first, turn left from there and walk along the city wall." Cai Dadangjia calmed down and instructed.
The driver hurriedly followed her instructions, walked forward for another hundred feet, turned left and took a fork road.
However, unlike the general fork road that was half narrow, this fork road was also about three feet wide, similar to the main road they took when they came.
There was also a sign on the side of the road, which read "Qingshan County Second Ring Road East Section 2".
Cai Da thought of the Third Ring Road that the old man had just mentioned, and compared it with the Second Ring Road he saw at this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
Oh my God!
This is really Qingshan County!
But why is this place, which is said to be so poor that the city walls are almost broken, so prosperous like the capital!
This is obviously still outside the city.
But the number of pedestrians on the road has exceeded the most prosperous area of Lianggu County!
Some of them can be seen at a glance that they are not local residents, but foreign vendors, carrying a lot of goods, going in and out of the city gate.
"Boss, there are so many people here. If you open a shop here, you will definitely make money!" The driver has been watching and said at this time.
Cai Da had thought of this a long time ago.
There is no business in the world that does not require a large flow of people.
The flow of people in this place is so large that it can be compared with Wuyin City. If you can open a shop here, it can be said that the business will be prosperous.
Just now on the road, she noticed that almost every street vendor was packed with customers!
If her shop came here...
The carriage went smoothly.The carriage kept going along the Second Ring Road.
Cai Da Dangjia soon discovered that the Second Ring Road was running around the city wall, and it had always maintained a distance of about 200 feet from the city wall.
There were four city gates in the east, south, west and north of the city for ordinary people to enter and exit, and there were more than a dozen side gates that were always closed, and there were soldiers guarding them.
This magnificent city was surprisingly large. The carriage went around the Second Ring Road for a long time before going from the east gate to the south gate.
"Boss, do you want to go around again?" the driver asked back.
"Forget it, it's almost noon, let's go into the city first." Cai Da Dangjia looked at the sky and said.
The carriage turned into the avenue leading to the city gate and followed the crowd.
Not long after, the people in front entered the city one after another, and finally it was the turn of Cai Da Dangjia's carriage.
"Wait!" The sergeant at the door stopped the carriage.
"Sir, we are here to do business." The driver said hurriedly. He had just seen two carriages of merchants in front of him. The sergeant did not stop them and let them in directly.
"Is this your first time here?" The sergeant laughed.
"Yes." The driver did not dare to lie.
"No wonder, outsiders have to pay a city tax to enter the city, one tael of silver each time." The sergeant replied.
"Why don't those merchants' carriages have to pay?" The driver could not help but point to the carriages that had already entered the city.
"They are not here for the first time. They all have access permits, fifty taels of silver each, and they do not need to pay the city tax within six months." The sergeant was quite patient.
"Fifty taels! So expensive!" The driver could not help but be amazed.
The head of the Cai family in the car had roughly understood it and handed out one tael of silver.
The sergeant collected the city tax, briefly checked the inside and outside of the vehicle, and let them in without making any more trouble.
The head of the Cai family looked at the city gate that was four or five feet long, and his heart was even more turbulent.
It looked magnificent from a distance, and even more stunning up close!
If the war really spread here, if the rebel army wanted to break into the city, given the scale of the city wall, it would be impossible without hundreds of thousands of people!
While she was daydreaming, the carriage passed through the city gate and entered the city.
In an instant, waves of sound surged!
