Chapter 175: Arrival at the County Seat of Yongzhou!

The next morning, Shen Qing chose to travel with the Wu family caravan, and the two teams merged into one.

Since the Wu family caravan often traveled on this road, they were very familiar with the road here, and they were much faster.

It took almost a day and a half to reach the county city of Yongzhou.

County city Yongzhou, outside the west city gate.

Wu Sheng and Shen Qing's two teams stopped outside the city gate.

Because Wu Sheng had to go back to hand over the business of this trip and had other things to do, he could no longer travel with Shen Qing, so he chose to say goodbye at the city gate.

"Brother Shen, I hit it off with you on this journey, and we got along very well. When you settle down in Yongzhou City in the future, come to Wu's house to find me when you have time, and I will take you to visit this great Yongzhou."

Wu Sheng spoke with a sincere attitude.

If he didn't know that he was doing other businesses, Shen Qing would really think that this person regarded him as a real friend, and he was more friendly than the gold medal real estate consultants he had seen in his previous life.

However, no matter what Wu Sheng's purpose was to make friends, Shen Qing still learned a lot about Yongzhou from him.

Seeing the information, Shen Qing's face was also full of smiles, and he said happily: "Of course, I hope Brother Wu won't think I'm troublesome."

"Haha, how could it be. I will definitely prepare a table of good wine and food for Brother Shen when we meet again in the future." Wu Sheng clasped his hands and said, "I'm leaving first, and we'll meet again in the future."

"See you later."

"Go!"

Wu Sheng got on his horse and led everyone into the city with his head held high.

Seeing Wu Sheng and others leave, Shen Qing raised his head and took a good look at the city called Yongzhou.

As the county capital of Yunlu County, Yongzhou has a population of 8 million. If the hidden population that has not been registered and has arrived one after another is included, it may have exceeded 10 million.

His cultivation level of Yangqi Realm seems to be the top one in Taiping County, but it is not good enough in Yongzhou City, and can only be regarded as ordinary.

According to Wu Sheng's boast, a brick thrown casually in Yongzhou City can hit a martial artist in the Yangqi realm.

Although the statement is a bit exaggerated, one fact is certain: the overall cultivation level of Yongzhou's martial artists is more than one level higher than that of Taiping County.

There are probably countless people who want to stand out.

It was almost dusk, and the lights in Yongzhou City were just turning on, and there was still a constant stream of people on the official road outside the city.

Shen Qing took a casual glance and saw monks wearing cassocks, Taoists with Taoist bones and immortal styles, noblemen and young ladies wearing gorgeous clothes, and gang knights with swords on their waists or long knives on their backs... and so on.

Of course, there are more small vendors carrying goods and pushing wheelbarrows here, as well as ordinary people working in the city.

Compared with Taiping County, people living in Yongzhou are obviously much better off, at least they don't have the kind of numbness of Taiping County.

As the sky was about to get dark, Shen Qing rode on the back of a tall horse, leading the way and walking in front.

The gray carriage behind him followed him, and the wheels collided with the stone road, making a gurgling sound.

When he walked to the city gate, Shen Qing was stopped by the city gate guards to verify his identity.

Shen Qing did not act rashly. He got the certificate of origin and handed it to the other party honestly.

To Shen Qing's surprise, the other party just checked it and let them pass after confirming that there was no problem. There was no so-called entry fee like Taiping County.

Sure enough, each city has its own way of living.

After entering Yongzhou City, Shen Qing saw the prosperity of this world for the first time.

In the past, Taiping County was just a lively and larger ancient town in his eyes, and there was nothing that made him shine.

But the Yongzhou City in front of him was different.

The roads on the street were all paved with bluestone slabs, and there were rows of teahouses and wine shops on both sides, crowded with people, and a prosperous scene.

Even when night fell, it was still bustling with people.

All kinds of lanterns were hung high on the street, and the lights were bright.

The shouts of vendors came one after another, and all kinds of goods were dazzling, from exquisite silk brocade to rough iron farm tools, from sweet cakes and snacks to spicy street snacks.

It really opened the eyes of Shen Qing and others.

I heard that there are a total of twelve market towns in Yongzhou City, and each market town has its own characteristics.

Shen Qing couldn't help but look forward to the next life.

He found an inn and took everyone to stay.

The innkeeper saw that they were dusty and embarrassed, and did not refuse, but silently raised the room price by 30% and welcomed them in.

Shen Qing didn't know the prices in Yongzhou City, and suddenly felt that the accommodation was extremely expensive.

They only opened three rooms, but they charged him three taels of silver.

Shen Qing instantly had a rough idea of ​​the prices in Yongzhou.

Shen Qing was a little tired from the long journey and the tension in his mind these days. After staying in the inn, his mind was finally relaxed and he felt unprecedented peace.

After Shen Qing washed up, he fell asleep.

A dreamless night.

Shen Qing, who had a full sleep, became energetic after waking up.

After breakfast, Shen Qing found out about the yamen of the Bingmasi and rushed over impatiently.

The yamen of the Yongzhou Bingmasi was tall and majestic, and it was extraordinary.

Two gatekeepers stood at the door, one on the left and one on the right, full of majesty.

Shen Qing calmly stepped forward, explained his purpose to the gatekeeper, and considering the prices in Yongzhou, gave each of them a large "door bag".

The latter was delighted to see this and generously let Shen Qing into the military office.

After successfully entering the office, Shen Qing knew the official style of the Great Zhou Dynasty very well. He used money to open the way all the way. It only took an incense stick of time to find the Lifang, which was responsible for the transfer of officials from the military office.

Shen Qing took out his appointment document to the official on duty and waited patiently on the side.

After seeing the appointment document and confirming its authenticity, the official in the Lifang took him to a side room without any nonsense and entertained him well.

"You've come at the right time. There are several vacancies in our Bingmasi. If everything goes well and you meet the requirements, you will be able to start work in the next few days."

Shen Qing felt a little incredible after hearing this. He always felt that it was too easy to get into the Bingmasi yamen. He remained cautious and said with a little joy: "So fast?"

"Haha, not fast, not fast, the key is to see if it goes smoothly. I'll take your appointment documents and registration certificate to the chief yamen later to explain your situation to the chief yamen and see what arrangements the chief yamen has for you."

The official in the yamen said enthusiastically with a mouthful of yellow teeth, and he deliberately emphasized the word "smoothly".

Shen Qing immediately understood, and took out his registration certificate, pressed a piece of gold leaf on it, and handed it to the official in front of him: "Then I'll trouble you, sir."

The official's eyes lit up, and he took the gold leaf with a smile, and promised: "I'll go first. You wait patiently for my news here."
