My Pet is a Snapping Turtle - Chapter 646
Chapter 646 Invited to the capital (monthly ticket 900 plus updates)
Liu Yong is going to the capital.
It’s just that there were too many entertainments, and it took two days to get away. There was no way, too many people came to visit.
The first person to visit was Wu Xuan.
Hearing that Liu Yong was back, he came over immediately and brought tens of millions of golden tickets.
All the more than a dozen magical weapons were auctioned off smoothly, and each piece ranged from more than three million yuan to a maximum of four million yuan and hundreds of thousands. It was a real profit.
Although the percentage of commission is very small, the total amount is huge. The Wu family’s profits are huge, which is enough to cover their income for many years.
“Master Liu, you are finally back, a total of 46.21 million gold coins, all of which belong to you.”
A large stack of thick gold tickets, the smallest face value is 100,000, and the largest face value is 1 million. This is also the highest face value gold note in the entire Great Xia Kingdom.
Liu Yong accepted the stack of gold tickets with a smile, thinking in his heart, after arriving in the capital, find the biggest bank and exchange them all for gold coins.
Tens of millions of real gold coins are obviously better. How can these gold tickets compare to gold coins? If they are not exchanged, they are just a voucher.
The second person who came to visit was Zhong Zhi, the new head of Haizhou Prefecture. He took the initiative to visit him with a very humble attitude.
Where there is a little air of the palace master, he is like a servant, as respectful as he wants.
Zhongzhi is a smart man.
The former head of the palace was killed, the eldest prince was taught a lesson, Liu Yong has nothing to do, how dare he put on airs of the head of the house.
After Wu Xuan and Zhong Zhi, prominent figures in the entire Haizhou Prefecture came to visit them one after another. Only Liu Yong has this face.
There were too many people coming, so Liu Yong handed over all of them to Tang Hongyi or Sun Liyong to receive them. Liu Yong only received a few people with status in Haizhou Prefecture.
Two days later, Liu Yong left Haizhou Mansion and was invited to go to the capital. He didn’t even take anyone with him. He drove by himself and set off along the official road.
The road condition of the official road is not bad, generally two lanes wide, sometimes it is dirt ground, and some places are paved with gravel, overall it is fairly flat.
It is about six to seven hundred kilometers from Haizhou to the capital, which is not too far, but not too close.
If you ride a horse or take a carriage, you can travel up to 100 kilometers a day, and it will take at least a week.
The speed of the Wrangler is much faster. Driving along the official road, the speed can often reach about 40 to 50 kilometers.
On the first day, I drove more than 400 kilometers in one go, only stopped at noon, and found a restaurant for a meal.
“If there is a highway, it would be great. Usually seven or eight hours is enough. Today, I ran for almost ten hours and only had more than 400 kilometers.”
Accustomed to the speed of modern expressways, Liu Yong is not satisfied with only more than 400 kilometers a day.
If people in this world know that they ran eight or nine hundred miles a day, they will definitely exclaim, impossible, how can there be such a fast speed.
At noon the next day.
It’s not far from the capital city, and it takes two or three hours at most. Seeing that the time is approaching noon, and there is a small town in front of it, Liu Yong took the Wrangler and planned to go into the town for lunch.
The scale of the town is not too small, at least it is larger than the Zhaojiaji Town I saw when I came to this world for the first time.
There are also several restaurants, and the streets are fairly spacious and tidy, with bluestone slabs on the ground. Liu Yong found the largest and best restaurant.
Walking into this restaurant, he found a table and sat down. Liu Yong ordered a few dishes, ordered a pot of tea, and ate slowly by himself.
I didn’t drink, because I have to drive later, even if the wine in this world can be described as fine wine, even if there is no traffic police in this world.
Just halfway through the meal, there was movement at the door, and a lot of people came all of a sudden, all of them were heavily armored warriors. They almost filled the outside of the restaurant, not more than a hundred, at least dozens.
Then several strong men and several girls in strong clothes walked in, surrounded by a girl in red. The girl was very young, about 17 or 18 years old by visual estimation, with first-class temperament and appearance.
Liu Yong glanced at it, and thought in his heart, there is such a beautiful girl with so many people, he probably has an unusual status.
After the girl came in, a strong man behind her shouted loudly, “Waiters are waiting, please get out of the way!”
The business of this restaurant is good, and it is now at noon, and there are quite a lot of people dining, but with such a shout, other people leave immediately, one by one in a hurry, as if they will be beaten if they leave a little later Same.
Liu Yong didn’t move, still eating there.
I haven’t finished my meal yet, why should I be allowed to leave? You must always pay attention to first-come, first-served.
One of the strong men walked up to Liu Yong with a vicious look on his face, “Leave quickly, don’t make yourself uncomfortable.”
Liu Yong seemed not to hear, with a calm expression on his face, he ate in a leisurely manner.
The burly man’s expression changed, and he was about to get angry when the voice of the girl in red floated over, “Ah Er, forget it.”
The strong man seemed to be in awe of the girl in red, and immediately said, “Yes!”
When he was leaving, he gave Liu Yong a bad look and snorted heavily.
The girl in red began to dine, and there were many people serving her. Apart from the girls in smart clothes she led, the owner of the restaurant stood beside her.
After taking a look, Liu Yong continued to eat, and when he was full, he paid the bill and left, not caring about the girl in red at all, no matter how noble her status was, in Liu Yong’s eyes she was just a passerby, an ordinary person.
After leaving the town, with a thought, he took the Wrangler out of the Qiankun Ring, then drove away, and drove along the official road towards the capital.
In the afternoon, Liu Yong arrived in the capital.
You can already see the majestic city walls of the capital, but the city walls of Haizhou Prefecture are nothing compared to it.
The city wall of Haizhou Prefecture is three feet high, and the city wall here is five feet high, which is almost double the height. The height has increased, and the width has also increased a lot.
I saw the majestic city wall and the huge gate, but I couldn’t see how long the city wall was, and I couldn’t see the end at all. It can be seen that the scale of the capital is larger than that of Haizhou.
Such a majestic and huge city wall is such a huge project. It is hard to imagine that in this technologically underdeveloped world, there is such a large project.
It was not far from the city gate, and there were more people. Liu Yong got out of the car, put away the Wrangler, and walked towards the city.
Entering from the city gate, there is a wide, straight street with almost no end in sight. This street alone is at least three to four kilometers long.
The street is wide and straight, and the ground is paved with neat large stone slabs, which looks clean and tidy.
There are many shops on both sides of the street, and the height of the houses is generally higher than that of Haizhou. Liu Yong has a feeling that this is a real city.
The fourth update is here!
