Chapter 1711 Shop Shop Shop away
Traveling was actually quite boring.
In his previous life, when they were on the plane, they either played computer or listened to music and read books. In any case, they could still play cards together.
And now ?? Hehe, besides chatting, there isn't any other better entertainment.
Reading books was such an extravagant activity that Shen He didn't even dare to think about it.
The book outside was sold for just a few taels of silver. How could Shen He, who only had two thousand gold, bear to sell it!
Therefore, he might as well use this time to chat and pass the time!
Coincidentally, Shen He also wanted to ask about the local customs and practices in the capital, so he asked the four of them to take turns driving the car and come in to chat with him.
Hong Hua said, "If I were to say how big the capital is, I would actually be unable to tell you."
The moment they left Wuxian, Red Flower and Emerald Bamboo started to behave themselves, calling themselves servants.
Shen He was too lazy to correct her.
This isn't much different from his previous life.
"The Imperial City is divided into three parts. The central area was the imperial palace. According to the Second Madam, the palace was divided into four main gates, each of which guarded the safety of the palace. The guards of these four gates were fourth rank generals under the direct jurisdiction of the current emperor. Outside of the palace gates was a ring shaped area. It was called the Northern Ring, the Southern Ring, the Eastern Ring, and the Western Ring. These four rings were where the nobles lived. The Wen Mansion was located in the east ring. Neighbors were the Minister of Justice and the Minister of Industry. Wen Family is a clan member and had a few rank 1 Great Clans, so they live in the Eastern Region. "
Shen He nodded.
Yes, yes, the Rich District, ah no, the Official District.
"The capital city respects the east and the south. Thus, the people living in the Eastern Region are all royalty and rank 1 and rank 2 elites. On the other hand, the people living in the Southern Region are nobles and officials below rank 3 who have already fallen from grace. " Cui Zhu continued.
"What about the Northern and the Western Rings?" Shen He asked with interest.
These things were all common knowledge. If he didn't clarify them, he would easily offend the nobles in the future.
Especially since she didn't have anything right now.
"The Northern Ring is a family of martial generals." Cui Zhu replied, "The mansions of the several old nobles are in the North Ring. Later on, a new rule was formed. All the new generals would build their residences in the Northern Ring. In fact, it was meant to protect the guards of the imperial palace. The West Rings were occupied by nobles with no real power but no title. To put it bluntly, it's a place for old age. "
Shen He laughed, and her conclusion was not bad.
"This is the i
er city's Fourth Ring. Even the most destitute Western Ring is not an existence that the outer city can offend. Which family doesn't have a strong relative? " Cui Zhu said again.
Shen He nodded her head again. That's right, this made a lot of sense.
"There is a distance of about three kilometers between the i
er city and the outer city. The i
er and outer city gates separate the i
er and outer rings. The royal family lived in the i
er ring, and outside the city gate was the outer ring. They were respectively the Northern Outer Ring, the Eastern Outer Ring, the Southern Outer Ring and the Western Outer Ring. These four outer rings were also divided into different grades and ranks. However, the status of the four outer rings were far inferior to that of the i
er rings. Therefore, most of the people living here were officials below the fifth-grade as well as wealthy merchants and commoners. The outer ring is the largest area, and the distance between the i
er and outer ring are almost ten miles, filled to the brim. If we were to enter the capital, we would only be able to buy a small courtyard from the cheapest outer ring. Cui Zhu said.
Shen He once again felt the huge gap between the rich and the poor.
In his previous life, why didn't he have this kind of thought?
Could it be that the heavens allowed him to experience life here?
Wen Jian Qing lived in the West Ring of the I
er Ring.
He lived in the poorest and most impoverished place in the Eastern Outer Ring, and he might not even be able to buy a place in the yard!
Well, this was the capital, the capital. It was understandable.
In his previous life, the imperial capital was even more exaggerated than this.
"How many people live in the capital?" Shen He asked again.
"About one or two million yuan?" An uncertain answer from Red Flower.
Thus, Shen He regained her confidence.
In his previous life, even a second-tier city had a population of several million.
The top and bottom lines were all tens of millions of people!
Only two million people!
Soeasy!
The time for chatting always passed by very quickly.
Soon, they arrived at the resting area.
Shen He jumped down from the carriage, stretched her limbs and looked at her surroundings.
This road was the official road, so along the road were places to rest.
These places were close to the towns, making it easier for people to replenish their supplies.
Guards, lead the horses to rest and graze. The attendants and maidservants brought the chests down. After opening the rooms, they moved the chests in.
In modern times, even valuables couldn't be put in a car, let alone modern times.
This was something that could not be doubted!
Seeing how the four of them struggled to carry the crate, Shen He once again sighed at the ease of the crate.
If there had been a suitcase in this era, it would have been much easier.
Shen He chose five rooms.
He had one room for himself, one for the servant, one for the servant, five guards and two for him. He would take turns to protect Shen He's safety.
The arrangement was perfect.
Hong Hong Hua called for a few dishes from the tavern, and after taking care of Shen He, she casually ate two mouthfuls.
Cui Zhu made up a bed for Shen He and asked: "Miss, the hot water will be here soon. You will be able to sleep after taking a bath later."
"Alright." Shen He yawned, she was indeed a little tired.
Roughly an hour later, hot water was sent over. Shen He took a comfortable bath, changed her clothes and was ready to lie down.
But before she could fall asleep, she heard a commotion from outside.
Shen He immediately sat up.
Cui Zhu quickly went into the house and said, "Miss, don't worry, someone was found stealing something. They are currently catching thieves outside!"
So it was a thief.
Shen He then swept her eyes across her own house. Very good, it's all here.
Shen He waved his hand, and said: "Since you do not want to do anything, then let's rest early. We still need to get up early tomorrow to continue our journey!"
Deep down, Shen He was glad that Wu County was not far from the capital. Otherwise, who knew how long she would have to walk for.
However, Shen He didn't celebrate for long.
Because that little thief had actually snuck into Shen He's room.
Just as Shen He was about to fall asleep, she heard many footsteps in the room.
Although Shen He did not train much in this world, but was it okay to persevere and train?
So when the little thief crept towards Shen He's big box, Shen He quietly appeared behind him and grabbed her wrist, a perfect shoulder throw, then directly nudged his throat with his knee, laughing wickedly: "You really have a lot of guts! She actually dared to steal from me! If I don't show you my power, do you think I'm Hello Kitty?! Even if I don't attack, I won't be able to fight the five scum! "
The thief that Shen He had captured: "..."
Who am I? Where am I? Where is my ideal?
