10 Along the way

With the arrival of Cao Yongyi, Li Tianyang's team trip was indeed much smoother, and after watching in Hangzhou City for several days, the natives looked hideous and dangerous, and did not attract the attention of the parents and officials of Hangzhou Prefecture and County.

Except for the fact that the common people were amazed by the peculiar appearance and costume of the indigenous patriarchs and their attachés, pointing at them along the way, and paying attention or watching from time to time, the activities of the indigenous people to watch the ancient city of Hangzhou did not cause any other trouble.

Of course, this also has something to do with the fact that the natives have restrained their behavior, visited in a proper manner, spoken a slightly strange Chinese, and bought all kinds of favorite objects with the people with real money.

As a newcomer, the patriarchs of the various tribes do not know how much the price in Hangzhou is, looking at this group of customers dressed as obviously foreigners, although the common people do not sit on the ground and raise the price, but the cunning of the small citizens still makes them raise the price by a few percent.

The indigenous patriarchs, who didn't know how to bargain, simply paid for the goods, didn't care about the people at all, and even bought the items they wanted, the indigenous patriarchs also had to say thank you to the small traders with a smile according to the etiquette they learned in Bengang, so that the small merchants and vendors were secretly happy, and at the same time did not forget to despise this group of fat sheep.

The natives of Bengang had basically never seen such things as gold and silver before Li Tianyang and them came, let alone bought and sold them. However, with the introduction of silver coins among the natives, the previous method of settling the wages of the natives with food and materials became obsolete, and silver coins became hard currency.

Although the natives really couldn't figure out how these things could be replaced with all kinds of things they needed, which were neither edible nor usable, and were not as hard as stones as hard as stones, and that were too heavy in their pockets. But as long as they stupid Hong Kong people admit their accounts and can use this thing in exchange for what their natives need, then they don't care that stupid Hong Kong people use this thing instead of the previous method.

Of course, over time, the natives also felt the benefits of this, and as their lives became more prosperous, they began to accumulate and store up on dead things that they would never have looked at before, just like the people of Bengang.

Therefore, the patriarchs of the indigenous tribes also have a lot of such things in their hands, especially after Li Tianyang reminded them of the important position of this thing in the Ming Dynasty, they brought the silver from their families with them when they came.

The clansmen respect their patriarchs, plus Li Tianyang gives them every year, these clan patriarchs, who don't carry a few hundred taels of silver on their bodies, put it on the ordinary people of the Ming Dynasty, it can be regarded as a huge amount of money.

Subsequently, along the canal, they went upstream, and stayed in Suzhou for several days, from Suzhou Wuxi to Yangzhou, along the way, because of the official ship Cao Yongyi, they did not receive too many official difficulties. In addition, Li Tianyang and they really don't care about things outside their bodies, and they are not stingy with taxes at checkpoints along the road, so they naturally won the favor of these officials on the water, who would trouble them.

Of course, it is not completely absent, Cao Yongyi still has the face of a military attache from the third grade on the water, but on the ground, his energy is a little clumsy. He is not from a family of eunuchs, and he is a martial artist, in the eyes of these civil officials in the Ming Dynasty, he may not be much higher than ordinary people like Li Tianyang.

Therefore, when Li Tianyang and them wanted to appreciate the style of Yangzhou's thin horses, they took a group of local buns to think about wrapping a good grade Qinglou and having a good experience.

This made Li Tianyang sigh that there was still money in this world that couldn't be spent, not to mention Cao Yongyi's vain temper, and he wanted to break in on the spot.

But in the end, Cao Yongyi was stopped by someone who was free to take care of me, and whispered a few words in his ear, Cao Yongyi's face finally changed a few times from blue to white, and then walked back in a gray way.

"His grandmother's, I didn't expect that there was a prince behind this building, we can't afford to offend, let's change it!" Cao Yongyi walked back dejectedly and said with a wry smile at Li Tianyang.

"Forget it, I'm not in the mood!" Li Tianyang looked at the indigenous patriarchs around him who didn't understand what was going on, and rejected Cao Yongyi with great interest.

In Jianghuai, there are too many rich and powerful people, and the group of indigenous men around Li Tianyang seem to be well-behaved along the way, but Li Tianyang knows that they are like this more because Li Tianyang always advises, and after arriving in such a prosperous place for the first time and seeing countless amazing scenes, the natives are a little restrained in their hearts, so they have not caused any trouble for Li Tianyang until now.

If they know the reason why the old bustard and the turtle don't let them in, I'm afraid that these natives will roll up their sleeves and theorize with such a dog-eyed bastard thing, so that they can see the majesty of the natives.

Indigenous talents, no matter what kind of prince you rely on, or Futai background, just such unruly people as them, now that they have suddenly seen the civilization and wealth of the Ming Dynasty, their sensitive hearts will naturally always have a sense of inferiority, which is also the reason why they feel restrained.

And it is precisely because of their inferiority complex, so they can't tolerate the contempt of the Ming people, and the northerners are already a little annoyed by the onlookers along the way, if this kind of thing is stimulated again, Li Tianyang does not dare to guarantee that he can still restrain this group of guys.

Therefore, for the sake of later planning considerations, Li Tianyang had to reluctantly refuse Cao Yongyi's proposal, and after taking the natives for a casual stroll, he went home.

But in my heart, Li Tianyang is dripping blood, and it is not easy to come back to Yangzhou, and even Li Tianyang, the famous ancient and modern holy land, can only watch from afar, so I don't know when I will be able to come to Yangzhou again in the future!

Originally, through ancient times, Li Tianyang was only extremely curious about a few things about the ancients, among which was the Qinglou, a place that men were fascinated by.

But until now, I have never had the opportunity to contact a place like a green building except for the humble Qinglou that I had given me in Lehui County when I was fifteen years old. Not to mention, the original trip to the Qinglou was really not a very good memory for Li Tianyang, because the first time he killed someone with his own hands, it was there.
