Taverns along the main roads are a major feature of the eastern region.
Although they are both plains, there are hills and mountainous areas in the east compared to the west.
This results in fewer options from a travel perspective.
To put it simply, if you compare the western plains to a great plain, you can see the end of it at a glance.
Then the eastern region should be surrounded by rolling mountains.
In addition to most of the plain areas, the only areas left are mountains and hilly areas.
Of course, these terrains are not separate.
Instead, it intersperses among the plains, dividing the entire eastern region into countless small plains, large and small.
This forms the unique characteristics of the eastern region.
Obviously, most of the area is plain, but transportation is not as convenient as in the western plains, and the area available for living and farming is much smaller than in the western plains.
But that doesn't mean that the eastern region is poorer than the western region.
On the contrary, it is richer than the west.
As for the reason...
"Master, I told you that this position is mine. Where did you come from? How dare you compete with me for the position?"
Attracted by the movement downstairs, Li Yi couldn't help but cast his gaze over and saw a handsome young man holding a folding fan in his hand. He was looking with condescending eyes at the man in front of him who had a red face and thick neck because of his arguments. A person dressed as a businessman.
Well, it should be an unequal quarrel.
Li Yi just took a glance and came to such a conclusion based on their clothes.
The reason is also very simple.
Although the young man seemed to be wearing flashy clothes, the folding fan he held in his hand had the word "蔱" written on it.
He might not have recognized anything special before this.
But after several rounds of information bombing, coupled with Guo Yunkai's popular science, he had a certain understanding of this strange country within a country, especially the power structure and force hierarchy of this place, as well as some of the people responsible for local security. Violent institutions.
The words signed with 蔱 are very special and difficult for ordinary people to recognize.
This also puts an end to the abuse of power by people in Qianziying to a certain extent.
Li Yi really didn't know what the relationship between this young man and that Qian Ziying was. It was possible that the other party just gave him a fan as a gift.
But after all, he is considered a person with connections.
Apart from anything else, just by looking at his arrogant look, you can tell that he has some etiquette.
Perhaps it was precisely because of his attitude that the people around him generally believed that the merchant who had a conflict with him was in bad luck.
These people may not know these characteristics of Qian Ziying, but it does not prevent them from observing words and emotions.
And with the blessing of his master's momentum, the young man's servant also looked full of momentum.
Each and every one of them took advantage of the human strength, raising their chests higher than the other, and they almost hit each other directly in the face.
As for the merchant, you can tell by the material he is wearing that he is not a wealthy businessman. Such a person would not fight for position in a roadside tavern.
But I don’t know if this person is really stubborn or he didn’t notice the difference in clothing between the two parties.
Even though he was alone, he didn't give in at all and kept shouting.
"Are you being unreasonable? I obviously occupied this position first. I even asked the waiter to look at it for me. I also put the things on the table. I went to the toilet while the food was being served. I'll look at it when I get back. How could it be possible for you to take my position?"
"Don't think that having more people means you are more powerful. I'm not afraid of you!"
In fact, apart from saying a few words at the beginning, the young man at the head never said anything again. He just sat aside and drank tea slowly while watching with cold eyes.
As for the work of driving people away, his own servants have to take care of it, and there is no need for him to take action.
After all, you have the advantage of having more people, right?
I don’t know why, but I almost didn’t say my identity directly even though I had hinted clearly.
But the person opposite didn't seem to understand. Besides yelling and refusing to leave, he just argued with reason.
His servant once thought of simply blasting him out.
And they did.
But the strange thing is that even though seven or eight sturdy servants tried to push him, they didn't let him move even half a step.
Instead, the other party just leaned forward and exerted a little force, and several strong men were pushed around.
This man has skills!
This was Li Yi's first feeling.
It is quite normal for him to travel north and south as a businessman and to have martial arts skills.
Leaving aside those big businessmen, those small businessmen who have little financial resources and hire bodyguards every time will always learn some boxing and kicking skills, firstly for self-defense, and secondly, for those who travel long distances, they will be more resistant if they have the skills.
This is normal.
But as he continued to read, Li Yi shook his head.
He could tell that although the opponent's foot was very stable, he could see that his basic skills were very good.
But he is not the kind of agile warrior.
According to Li Yi's opinion, he is just a fitness enthusiast.
I can’t even talk about getting started in martial arts.
Of course, although he can't be said to have any martial arts skills, there is still no problem in dealing with a few servants who have no martial arts skills.
If nothing else, he is stronger than the other seven or eight people.
A few people started arguing, and it was in a narrow corner of the hall. There were too many people, so it was hard to move.
It is precisely because of this that the party with more people was suppressed.
Gradually, the young man who had been watching with cold eyes also noticed the clues, and a look of fierceness flashed on his face.
He stood up slowly and stared at the merchant, who was not very good-looking and not very tall, but very strong.
Then, he pulled out a whip from his arms.
Under the cover of several servants, he followed.
This move was not only clearly seen by Li Yi above, but also by the people around him.
Only the merchant didn't know it at all.
It was obvious that this kid was planning a sneak attack.
Seeing this, Li Yi jumped lightly and landed directly from the second floor without saying a word.
The moment he landed, he tapped the floor, jumped and flew towards the center of the incident.
Curtis, who had been silent all this time, was a little surprised.
"You don't like to meddle in other people's business, don't you? And this trip is equivalent to an unannounced visit... You also brought a burden, so you are not afraid..."
"Don't talk, I know what's going on."
Li Yi interrupted the doubtful Curtis without hesitation, stepped in front of the young man, and grabbed his hand that was about to make a sneak attack.
The other party exclaimed and unconsciously let go of the hand holding the whip.
Li Yi said with a smile.
"Friend, it's just a small misunderstanding, just use fists and kicks. Isn't it too much for you to use weapons?"
The young man opposite was angry and just about to say "Who do you think you are" when he saw Li Yi's face with a faint smile.
This man who appeared harmless to humans and animals inadvertently revealed a trace of murderous intent that can only be cultivated on the battlefield!
Subconsciously, he suppressed the words that he almost blurted out.
Unlike that businessman, this man with a smile on his face would really dare to kill someone if he disagreed!
The young man had seen the real good guys in the military camp.
He knew very well that this kind of aura could only be found in those who had experienced the battlefield.
He could even feel that the aura of this man was no less than that of the battlefield killing god he saw back then!
"You...who are you? What is your relationship with him?"
Thinking of this, the young man's momentum suddenly dropped a few points.
And because the opponent immediately grabbed his weapon, it was a bit awkward to speak.
Li Yi smiled.
"Me? I'm just a spectator, but I also have to watch the spectacle with caution. I like to watch fights, but if such a murderous weapon is used, it won't be a good look."
The young man blushed and tried to argue.
"What kind of murder weapon? I'm just a soft whip..."
"Soft whip?"
Li Yi sneered when he heard this, and with a little force, he whipped the soft whip directly over, and with a skillful flick, he just broke the teacup he drank from before.
In an instant, it was completely shattered and tea splashed everywhere.
Fortunately, no one was hurt.
The young man was startled for a moment, and then realized that there was no follow-up. He sneered and was about to retort when he heard an exclamation from the crowd watching the fun.
His face turned pale immediately.
"This... tea is poisonous!"
