Chapter 1025: On the River
Shanghe City is the most prosperous city in the Linglong Upper Realm, where there are countless powerful people, merchants are like streams, all industries are prosperous, and entertainment is developed; because it is far away from the Linglong Dao Mountain Gate, the power of the monks is relatively limited here, and those who are really good at the Tao will naturally alienate this kind of red dust right and wrong.
The reason why Shanghe City is named Shanghe is because there is a river in the city that splits the city in half, and all kinds of prosperity and customs are concentrated on both sides of Shanghe.
On both sides of the river, the courtyard and pavilion, the courtyard of the high gate, compete for luxury and luxury; in the middle of the river, the painting boat is like a building, the canopy shuttles, competing for beauty!
If you have to find a template, then here, it is the Qinhuai River, which was famous all over the world in Li Ji's previous life, or a strengthened and refined version, after all, there is a Xiuzhen world, the exquisite utensils, and the handsome and elegant characters are not comparable to the pure mortal world.
In March, the entertainment industry that has been dormant for a winter has begun to move, and a large-scale river flower party is in full swing to prepare, which is also the practice of every year, enough pomp, restless crowds, beautiful Oiran, and the competition of major entertainment forces behind are waiting for this day!
Waiting to stimulate the enthusiasm of tourists to consume, throughout the ages, it is basically a business model.
This is also the most lively month in Shanghe City, countless businessmen and strongmen who come here regard this place as their own gold kiln, spending a lot of money, just for the Pomeranian people to smile, as for this crazy month, there is no entanglement back to the hometown, who will care about these?
There is wine today and drunk today, don't regret the youth!
On both sides of the river, there are only two kinds of fields - restaurants and green buildings!
It is a place to meet the primitive desires of human beings, in the era of singing and dancing, its deformed development has become the city's largest supporting industry, not only stimulating domestic demand, but also stimulating external demand, and countless downstream industries, which have truly become the cornerstone of the city, the business card.
There are countless green buildings, and there are high and low levels;
Ya is the only criterion for distinguishing levels!
Poetry and songs, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, you are embarrassed to say that you are the first to open a green building! Therefore, a good poem, a good score, here is often hyped into a sky-high price, not only the girls will buy it with a lot of money, but the backstage of the Qinglou is also racking their brains to buy, just in order to show their heads and feet at the March River Flower Fair, and take the lead!
There are elegant, of course, there are vulgar; there are guests, rich and poor, there are those who can afford the price, of course, there are also those who can't afford it; as the trend-setting Shanghe City, of course, there are many places that simply solve physiological problems, but such places, whether they are famous or backstage, are far from comparable to those elegant places.
It is impossible for these places to occupy the golden treasures on both sides of the river, they are distributed all over the city, even in the narrow streets and alleys, and are collectively called the faction outside the river, while those who occupy both sides of the river alone and have a far-reaching reputation are called the Hanoi faction, which are clearly divided and enmity with each other.
Of course, the Hanoi faction does not look down on the Hewai faction, in fact, there is really no comparison between them, and they are not at the same level at all!
On this day, a group of scholars came in at the south gate of Shanghe City, all of them were high-spirited and radiant, and their expressions revealed a more ardent yearning than when facing the sage book.
After a simple registration at the city gate, they disappeared into the vast sea of people, causing several doormen to pout and laugh, and a sour-mouthed doorman said shamelessly:
"Look at their virtues, thinking that when I come to Shanghe City, everything will be taken by them?
Another doorman replied: "Second Brother Wang has good eyesight! Look at their royal horses, more than half of them are yellow-toothed old mouths, and the goods of the cart are pulled; and then look at the clothes, they are clean, but the material is ordinary, just plain cloth, and there is even a guy with patches on his underwear, I don't know how excited he is? I'm afraid it is the level of going to the Hewai Dispatch to see a little!"
The third doorman smiled and said: "Do you think that the faction outside the river can be seen by one person? Although it is cheaper, but your physical strength is insufficient, those sisters are afraid that they will not be able to look down on you!
Not to mention the sour mouths of the mendings, a group of scholars followed the flow of people and looked around the street, and the only experienced scholar who had been here before asked:
"Brothers, what are you looking at? Pay attention to the soles of your feet, don't step on!
In addition, in addition to the excellent girls and exquisite food, this Shanghe City has a good characteristic, that is, there are a lot of thieves who are very fast, so be careful!"
A scholar who entered the city for the first time asked: "Brother Kong, how can I look at this street, they are all serious businessmen, but no, there is no place for elegance?"
The experienced Brother Confucius sneered, "You are so impatient, you are really sweeping the floor! How can there be a famous place for fireworks here? How can you do it in a grand manner?"
Don't worry, come with me, find a place to stay first!"
A group of people, under the leadership of Brother Kong, turned left and right, only looking for the remote place to walk, and finally found an inn, but it was a private house buried in the alley to rebuild, and some people among the scholars were dissatisfied:
"Brother Kong, I'll live in such a place, isn't it, isn't it a little too simple?
Brother Kong raised his head and walked inside, "It's too simple, how much money do you have in your pocket? I really lived in a big place, don't say go to the river to see the girl, I'm afraid you can't afford to pay for this half month!"
This is good, the price is fair, and it is clean, change places, the same inn. I will at least double your money!
Don't you know that this is the annual month of slaughtering customers in Shanghe City? I have sharpened my knives for the winter, and I am waiting for you broilers to enter the grain!"
A group of people took accommodation, freshened up a little, and didn't eat, so they poured out of the inn, shouting that they wanted to go to the bright lights on both sides of the river to see it, and Brother Confucius couldn't pull them, so he had to lead everyone to ......
Two hours later, a group of scholars left the range of Shanghe with a disgraced face, two of them were still covered with black eyes, probably from the fists of the thugs; they finally understood that with their so-called net worth, let alone going to the banks of the river to find girls, they went into the flower building to eat a glass of wine is enough, and they can basically go home after eating.
Brother Kong's face was indifferent, this was expected, he knew from the beginning, but this wall, newcomers have to hit it once to know that it hurts, how can it work just by saying it? Now, aren't they all honest?
"Why don't I go have some dinner first, and then I'll talk about the rest?"
Although a group of scholars were not lightly hit, their perseverance was extremely tenacious, worthy of reading the books of the sages, and one of them said:
"I have setbacks in my generation, but I can't lose my sharpness, I don't see the girl today, and I vow not to eat!
Brother Kong, didn't you say that in addition to the expensive Hanoi faction, there is also a faction outside the river that is close to the people? Let's go to the faction outside the river, but we need to say that we need to say that if we want to go, we will go to the best place of the Hewai faction, so we will empty our pockets overnight, and we will go home, but we can't go to the deep private hall in that lane!
I've already swept my face, how can I sweep it again and suffer from that pickled breath in vain?"
Everyone was shocked!
