Chapter 764 Behind the surface is the truth

On the surface! Everything is normal in Xianyang City. But Peng Zhou naturally didn't believe it, thinking that everything was just a superficial phenomenon. Only behind the surface is the most real life.

All morning, he walked on the main street with a stand-in and Fusu, and did not go down the alley. In his social experience, in the alleys or in the corners of the city, there is the most real life.

If you want to understand life and experience real life, you can't run to a crowded place, you can't run to the streets, you can't run to the villages......

You run behind the street, you run on the side of the road, you run where strangers meet...... So! You can experience real life.

Although he came from Nanban to Xianyang City and passed through many places along the way, he did not see the real life of Qin.

As you can imagine! You are under the escort of the guards, and you are the grandfather of Qin Shi Huang, will others tell you the truth?

Even if you walk the main road (official road) alone, you will not be able to experience the real life of the world. What you see is still superficial, not real life.

But! You can get a general idea of the state of society as a whole. For example! In troubled times, there are very few inns. Because! Opening an inn is too risky. The world is a little more peaceful, and there will be more inns, restaurants, and so on.

In troubled times, the service in inns, restaurants and other places is very poor and barbaric. But! If you don't fuck it, they'll treat you like a guest. If you fuck it, people are more fucked up than you.

But! There is another situation! That is! There are a lot of black shops. If you are not careful, thinking that the shopkeeper and the guy in the store are very enthusiastic, you may often die without knowing how you died?

In short! During the period of peace and prosperity, the service industry was developed.

Overall! After Qin Shi Huang ruled the world, the world as a whole was still very good. At least! The chaos is not going to be chaotic. But! It does not mean that it is absolutely peaceful, there are definitely places where the sun does not shine.

Back to the inn, I had lunch in the inn.

For the convenience of customers, the inn also provides three meals a day. But! They are generally part-time. The so-called concurrent operation means that it is not open to the public, and can only provide services to its own customers.

The same is true for restaurants and liquor stores, which also operate inn business.

Either! You apply for two "business licenses" separately, and you can have an inn on one side and a restaurant on the other.

In order to have a good relationship with the inn, Peng Zhou came back for dinner with a stand-in and Fusu Gongzi. Otherwise! If it does not bring profits to the inn, the service attitude of the people is definitely not good.

Other than that! Peng Zhou also had another plan: to leave Fusu and the stand-in in the inn, and he would go out alone in the afternoon to experience life.

Fusu still has to study, and he can't delay his study. If you take him out crazy every day, he doesn't want to go to school?

After resting for a while, Peng Zhou excused himself to say that he had something to do, so he came out alone.

He didn't go out of the city, but went straight into the alley.

On the bustling streets, there are alleys everywhere.

The entrance to the alley is just as bustling, but after a little walk there aren't many people. Because it is dirty, messy, and poor, rich people and people with some status are reluctant to go inside. For them, the feeling of insecurity has increased.

And for the poor, they are fearless. They have no money, and they are not afraid of death, but they are afraid of hair? I even thought to myself: Do you want to hack me? I still want to eat black! Do you think I'm going to die? Ha ha! I want you to die at once.

Lao Tzu has had enough, and he is trying to find a place where no one is there to fight and vent his emotions! Come on? Kind of?

The streets in Xianyang City are criss-crossed, and there are countless alleys connecting with each other between the main streets. And also! There must be alleys behind the streets, so that the people who live in them can live conveniently. Yue eBook

The main street is generally a commercial street, and it has been turned into a shop. So! People who live in cities can only connect with the outside world through alleys.

So! The main street is the surface phenomenon and image project of society. And the alleys! It is a place to experience the real life of the people.

Of course! Rich people and aristocrats, most of them don't go down the alleys, they go directly to the streets. The door to the alley in their backyard was blocked. Even! On the other side of the alley, there are high walls.

The mansions of the rich or nobles are generally whole. From the front street to the back alley, it's so big and long.

And in most places, it is no longer the pattern when the city was founded. Maybe it used to be this pattern, but then it fell and was divided into pieces. The façade house on the street in front was occupied by rich people. In the back, it is occupied by people who have fallen.

These declining people come and go through the alleys.

As you can imagine! There are still quite a lot of people going in and out of the alleys.

In today's language, these alleys are like the entrances and exits of urban villages, and when it comes to commuting time, there are a lot of people coming in and out.

"Look at the looks! Look at the look! Look at the face! Hey, hey, hey! ……”

Peng Zhou was walking into the alley when suddenly a middle-aged man in his forties rushed over from the side and beckoned to him.

This is a tall and sturdy man in the prime of life, and he knows at a glance: the other party is a practitioner with good martial arts.

Looks? Hey!

Peng Zhou snickered on the spot when he heard this!

I thought: this is life! That's what he's going to see.

Really! There are such talents in the alleys!

Peng Zhou stood still, looked at the other party and did not speak.

The middle-aged man came to Peng Zhou's face, stepped forward and looked left and right, and then his expression changed greatly.

"What? What's wrong? Peng Zhou's expression also changed and asked.

He's in disguise, and no one will know him. But! Nor can it be said that absolutely no one knows him. After all! He used to be a man of the hour, who knows where others have seen him?

"Ahh It's a pity! Old man? You? Your life is not good! The middle-aged man looked at Peng Zhou, nodded and said affirmatively.

"What's wrong with my life?" Peng Zhou asked quietly.

"You should be rich and rich! You should enjoy the glory and wealth, right? But you? What do you look like? Do you see where you are now? Isn't it? Your life is not good? ”

"Where do you see that my life is bad?" Peng Zhou asked.

"Why? By your countenance? I'm a master of faces! As soon as I look at your face, I know that you are a rich and noble person, and your ancestor should be a nobleman, right? Isn't it? The current aristocracy has lost the opportunity to inherit the title, and only has priority. Isn't it? In the past, you would have been sitting at home and enjoying your blessings! Isn't it? The family has thousands of acres of land, and there is a market town or city tax, right? ”

"Tell me about it? Why is my life bad? ”

The sturdy middle-aged man looked at Peng Zhou, and then stretched out his hand, looking begging.

That means: give money! I'll tell you about it! Don't give money! You're going to fuck me off!
