Bafang Street is the most lively place in Tahongzhou. It has always been said that Bafang crowned Tahong. Although it is probably just nonsense made by scholars, it is not an exaggeration. Although it is just a city, It is said that Xuanhua City occupies one stone of silver, and Bafang Street accounts for eight of them. It can be said that gold is worth bricks, and silver money is the stepping stone. No one knows that Bafang Street in Xuanhua City, How many noble people with extraordinary abilities and prominent family backgrounds live inside?
As for why it is named Bafang Street, it turns out that Xuanhua City is at least ten times wider than other cities in Tahongzhou, and this Bafang Street is eight long streets from the beginning to the end merged into one place. , it looks extremely majestic, like a sword divided into eight sides. In addition to being flat, it should have been bluestone as the road, and it is also more white jade stone steps. Jade jade is framed at the plaques on all sides. Women in the building are walking around, wearing clothes. Walking barefoot in gauze among the buildings, smoke and willows are whirling, and jade instruments are in full bloom.
Naturally, ordinary people are not allowed to enter Bafang Street. Only famous and wealthy businessmen can step into it. However, no matter how well-off businessmen from other places step into Bafang Street, they can only praise them repeatedly but dare not ask. To clear the price, I am afraid that after seeing the extremely precious things here, I will never forget the time when I return home, so as not to regret it for the rest of my life. In the end, I will become more depressed and have a lot of decadence. It is better to just taste it briefly and gain two or three points of knowledge. Leave peacefully.
But it happens that this place is considered the most prosperous place in the whole world. Every day, there is a drunken young man, riding a green bull, slowly and steadily walking through the long white jade street, but no one dares to come. After saying a few words, many women often raised their eyebrows when they caught a glimpse of this young man who behaved very unscrupulously, wishing that they could show off their already more attractive Xia Shi skirts.
It's a pity that most young men in the world don't understand the woman's thoughts. At most, they just rein in the green bull's bridle, then slightly raise their drunken eyes to salute, and then fall down behind the green bull and fall asleep, showing their drunkenness.
There are a few women in Baiqiong Tower who often stay at the balcony and window lattice, not to enjoy the scenery. After all, no matter how beautiful the Bafang Street is, the coral and green trees are all hung with gold and jade silk ribbons, decorated with precious jade beads and flowers. For several women who have been coming to Baiqiong Tower to serve guests since they were young, they are really tired of seeing them. They stay outside the windows and windows all day long just to see what happens every day at noon. A drunken boy riding a green bull in the street.
"Qiao Lan, it seems that the young man will not be able to pass by this long street today. The sun is shining brightly outside. It is better not to burn his face and go back to the house early." A man with light red eyes and high arms When the woman with cloudy hair saw someone coming, she smiled, frowned, and said a few words of blame. She quickly wanted to push the thinly-clad woman named Qiao Lan back to the building, but she didn't want to be shunned by the latter. However, for a while, I felt ashamed and embarrassed.
"If Ting Lan knew that the young man would not pass by here today, then why did he insist on enduring the summer heat outside, even ruining his makeup, and insisting on staying here? He is obviously about the same age as me, but he didn't He knows how to protect food, and he doesn’t know what kind of luck the young man riding the green bull has, to be attracted by our always high-minded and beautiful Ting Lan."
Qiao Lan has always been very articulate. Regardless of whether she is a resident of the Baiqiong Building or a frequent visitor to the Baiqiong Building, they all know this. However, when someone praises her, this girl who has always been bold and bold will always To blame for a while, it seemed that he was quite reluctant to get such a name.
Today happened to be the day when Baiqiong Tower had not had many business transactions. It was probably due to the fact that many high-ranking princes or wealthy foreign businessmen with tens of millions of taels of gold and silver had spent all their money one after another, and had not yet filled their wallets. It's rare to have two days of leisure. I guess that when the boat rides outside Xuanhua City, there will probably be countless guests who come to Baiqiong Tower to look for flowers and willows. They all gather here like fish in a lake when they see bait, so I am free for this moment. It's really hard-won.
Qiao Lan and Ting Lan are only in their teens and twenties, an age where they have no time for leisure. Even if they belong to an ordinary family, they are still far from the time to study embroidery and weaving, and there is no need to learn any manners. , it was probably a good year for them to be on the streets and travel with friends, but now the two of them seemed to have bloomed, and they looked a bit like they were leaving the court. They were slim and graceful, and their eyebrows were dazzling.
But that is
Even if the women in the building eat and wear fine food every day, even if it is not in season, they can always taste it, not to mention all the so-called best nourishing soups and medicines in the world, and even the tea soup after meals. Two teas can be worth one or two gold, but these women are not allowed to go out. Only during the holidays, servants are sent to guard them, and they go out to visit the garden or enjoy the scenery. The time was a little long, but of course I lacked interest. Even if I saw the gold threads woven into the complicated clothes and the fine horses with jade hanging on their foreheads, I still felt very bored. It was at this time of year that a young man I had never met was riding a green bull all day long. , leisurely and leisurely crossing the street drunkenly, which instantly attracted many women to be very curious.
"It's just a young man who doesn't know his background. He's not very good-looking, so he might as well have tea. Just recently, he got a few pieces of high-quality cloth. The embroidery is perfect. I heard people say it's as thin as a cicada, but it's It is most suitable to be able to guard against some scoundrels in Bafang Street." Tinglan didn't care, shaking her bun slightly, wearing a jade ring and jade hairpin when they bumped against each other, it made a very pleasant tinkling sound, but it was a pity that the surroundings The few women didn't pay attention at all. Instead, they swarmed up and filled the place where Tinglan originally stayed.
Everyone knew that Ting Lan cared about the young man very much. Almost every day after her free time, she would come to the corridor to open the window and look down. However, she insisted on being stubborn and said that it was hot in the building. If you want to come and enjoy the cool breeze, you should take a rest. But no one cared about it at the moment. They only knew that Ting Lan gave up her original seat so that she could go and take a look at the drunk and well-behaved young man.
Although the background of the young man is unknown, he somehow manages to get into Bafang Street. The street guards are very respectful to this young man who often rides a green bull for leisure. Compared with those princes and nobles with great backgrounds, he is very respectful. I also want to be respectful. I heard from well-informed people in Bafang Street that this young man had once rescued the owner of Bafang Street with his skills before he entered the streets. It was probably for this reason that he rose to prominence. Rumor has it that this seemingly handsome young man is good at swordsmanship. He did not take any of them with him, but he defeated the enemy's two hundred men and killed them until they were frightened. Then he rescued the Bafang Street owner who was almost dead and treated him as a guest.
For half a year, many masters or servants of high-ranking merchants in Bafang Street have come to look for young people to compete. However, there has never been any news about the outcome. It is only known that the street guard became more respectful when he saw the young boy. , during the salute, he almost lowered his head to his feet. According to most people's guesses, he was probably completely undefeated. After all, if he defeated this young man, the Lord of Bafang Street would definitely be given an important position, let alone come and go at will. In Bafang Street, even though this young man was often drunk, he never had any restraint.
But what makes people in Bafang Street most curious is that within six or seven days of the young man's residence, a carriage will be walked out of the tent, loaded with gold, silver, money and food, and slowly go to other places, but no one knows that this young man, who always wears plain clothes Why is the young man in black so frugal that he scatters all the gold and silver? It is precisely because of this that the woman in Baiqiong Tower feels that this man is difficult to match with his skills and behaves differently from ordinary people. The boy riding a bull is particularly eye-catching.
It was only half a stick of incense, but the sound of cow hooves could be heard on the street. A green cow with messy fur was carrying a young man who seemed to be drunk to death, slowly walking through the long street from south to north. .
Qingniu didn't walk very fast, so the young man was obviously very drunk, but he still forced his head up, nodded to the women upstairs, with a smile on his face, and then lay on Qingniu's broad back, letting his snoring go. He stood up slightly, but didn't move at all.
The young man was dressed in black. He was not particularly particular about satin, nor was he wearing a jade sachet. He looked very casual. His figure was long and his hair was messy. When he sat down, the green cow looked ordinary. He seemed to be in the middle of the field. The cattle with copper bells were all the same. When they saw the women upstairs, they looked very disdainful. They shook their heads, flipped their short tails, and walked through the street step by step.
"Such a dress is really different from the people in Bafang Street, but it is obviously highly regarded by the street owner. He should not worry about money, but he has never been willing to buy more good clothes. Based on this, this young man is the only one in the street. One serving.”
Outside the balcony, there are still birds and birds, and it seems to be crowded with jade, and it is very lively. Of course, it makes people on the street look up for a while. Even if they are a little shy in their pockets, they can temporarily relieve their addiction, and they don’t need money. good thing.
But the young man lying on Qing Niu's back didn't care about the looks of the many women behind him. He had made no move since he stood up and nodded, holding the yellow rope around his wrist with one hand.
, without exerting any strength on his body, fortunately Qingniu's steps were steady, so he did not fall to the ground and walked leisurely to the mansion.
It's rare to have a change of mind, but unfortunately the world is always quiet but windy, and there are always turbulent things that disturb the mind and will. Now that we have just arrived, we are already trapped in the chaos.
"Speaking of which, although this world is full of people, everyone just wants to exchange their money for fun and doesn't care about other things, but this wine is indeed the best among the best, and I don't know how many people have been stolen from it. The silver that I need to survive to buy a house and a place to live is why I have such good wine."
"If it's not called Shuo Shu, it's better than Shuo Shu."
