"Tell me, what everyone in the city is saying about Duke Ping is true or false?"
There are also many small vendors outside Chang'an South City. After lunch, there is not much business.
So a few people who usually sell goods got together and started chatting and spanking.
"Wu Laosi, do you still have a conscience?"
"Why do I have no conscience?" Wu Laosi choked back.
"I remember that three years ago, you couldn't even get enough to beg for food. What's the matter? Now that you've earned two dollars, I wonder where you got the money?"
"What do you mean I don't know where the money came from? Didn't I get up early and work late at night to collect melon seeds from farmers, fry them myself and then sell them?"
"Bah!" Ge Mazi spat in front of Wu Laosi: "Those melon seeds were not planted by Duke Ping for everyone to plant. Can you harvest them? Where did you get the coal for frying the melon seeds?"
"I...I..." Wu Laosi was speechless for a while, and then said with a pinched neck: "Then tell me, in the past few years, there have been locust plagues, droughts, floods, ah, and wars and so on... "
"Ahem!" Liu Sheng, who had a gray beard next to him, couldn't stand it anymore: "Wu Laosi, aren't you a three-year-old child? I think you are in your thirties, right?"
"I'm thirty-six, what's wrong?"
"I think your thirty-six years have been in vain! Tell me, in the past thirty-odd years, when Duke Ping didn't come, did we have a locust plague? Was there a flood or drought? Was there a plague? And were there any? How many years have you not fought?"
"That's right!" Ge Mazi shouted: "It turns out there was a disaster. How many years didn't many people die? What about now? When the locust plague came, Duke Ping taught everyone to grow potatoes and raise chickens and ducks. When there was a drought, he dug wells for everyone to get water. When the plague came, You can still get medical treatment!"
"This..." Wu Laosi groaned for a long time and then said something: "That's also what's written on the bronze tablet at the city gate, and... it's not me who said it."
As soon as he said this, several people around him, including Ge Mazi and Liu Sheng, stopped talking. After all, the appearance of the bronze monument was strange. Even though they, the common people, knew that Tang Ping had brought countless benefits to everyone, they could not refute this. Something.
Many people say that the bronze monument is a warning from the immortal to the world, telling everyone to be careful of the disasters caused by Tang Ping.
This made many people who had been favored by Tang Ping want to speak for him, but they didn't know where to start.
The small group that was originally chatting began to become awkward.
"Hmph, anyway, I believe in Duke Ping. Maybe that bronze monument was conjured by a monster!" Ge Mazi replied, then hugged his pole and planned to leave.
At this moment, many people began to run outside.
Liu Sheng grabbed one of them and asked, "Why are you running?"
The man shook his clothes impatiently and said, "I heard that there is another bronze monument growing over the city gate."
After saying that, he ignored Liu Sheng and started running towards the city gate.
"New bronze monument?"
Liu Sheng and Ge Mazi looked at each other: "Let's go and have a look!"
By the time a few people arrived at the city gate, there were already many people surrounding them.
Fortunately, these salesmen have developed a lot of strength in picking goods. They squeezed here and there and finally squeezed in.
In the innermost place, there is also a police cordon set up by the government last time the bronze monument appeared. In addition, there are city guards guarding it, so no one dares to really go in. They all stand outside the cordon and watch.
"Look, there, there, there are so many!"
"One, two, three...there are eight in total!"
"Is there any writing on it?"
"I can't see it, it just popped up!"
Next to the original bronze stele with eight characters written on it, another circle of bronze stele appeared, and now only the top can be seen.
But it looks like it is similar to the original bronze monument.
Among the crowd of onlookers, two more people looked at each other and found that each other looked strange.
The two of them retreated and arrived at a street corner where no one was paying attention.
"what happened?"
"I don't know! We just did that..."
"Could it be that Tang Ping did it?"
"This...it turns out that no one has touched that bronze monument. How did they know we were...
how did you make it? "
"You ask me, who should I ask?"
"It's better to go back and inform the young master!"
"OK!"
Soon, the news about the new bronze monument spread throughout Chang'an City.
The last time the bronze monument appeared, although it was considered a sensation, before those few words appeared, everyone only paid attention to it occasionally.
But this time it was different. This time eight bronze monuments appeared around the last bronze monument. Some people looked back and said that these eight bronze monuments happened to be in the same position as the Eight Trigrams, surrounding the original one in the middle. There are also two theories in Chang'an. One theory is that God reminded Datang last time, but everyone did not pay attention to it. Now a new warning has come.
There is another theory that the last bronze stele was created by monsters, and now this Bagua bronze stele was sent by heaven to collect the monsters.
Anyway, the public is right and the mother-in-law is right. When the words on the bronze tablet are not fully revealed, no one can convince anyone.
The official attitude is also very ambiguous. Not only did they remove the red cloth that originally covered the original bronze monument, this time the bronze monument does not prohibit everyone from watching, as long as it does not pass the warning line.
There are even city guards to maintain order, and an aisle has been set up. Those who want to watch queue up, and the viewing time cannot exceed ten minutes. The city gate here is not even closed at night.
I just set up a searchlight borrowed from Tang Ping and pointed it down. I can take a look at it at night!
This place has inexplicably become one of the most popular attractions in Chang'an, with countless idlers coming here to check in.
"How's it going? Has it grown?"
"It's grown, it's definitely grown. When I looked at it yesterday, the most it popped out of the ground was this much!" One person compared the distance of one card with his hand: "Today, there are so many more!"
"Let's go and wait in line again. This round will take almost three hours! I'll wait in line while you go buy some food from the stall next to me. After three hours, I'm afraid more of the bronze monuments will appear. ”
There are more and more people here, and it is open even at night, so countless vendors are flocking here. All you need to do is pay the urban management a few coppers in management fees and garbage management fees.
"Cousin, how many more days will it take?"
Above the city gate, Li Chengqian asked Tang Ping on the side.
"Probably, it will appear in three days!" Tang Ping held a bunch of candied haws bought from below and ate one. It was too sour.
However, Wang Qingluan likes to eat sour food these days, so it will be just right for her to take it back later.
"Only three days?" Li Chengqian felt a little pity, because he suddenly discovered that the Internet celebrity check-in point mentioned by his cousin was really profitable. In just a few days, he made a lot of money just by collecting the management fees from the vendors.
If my cousin hadn't told me not to charge for viewing the stone monument, I would have probably made a lot of money just from this check-in point in a month.
Li Chengqian was thinking vividly, should he wait until this matter is over to set up a few so-called internet celebrity check-in points near Chang'an, and then collect management fees, etc. It would also be a big gain.
