The market in Xianyang City is always noisy. As the capital of Qin State, the people's livelihood here is much better than other places. Vertex Novel Updates Fastest
At least, ordinary people can still have a meal, and occasionally they can buy some things with so much money left over.
How much is a horse at this time? Gu Nan has no idea. In the case of inconvenient transportation in ancient times, the price of a horse is equivalent to a modern car. Among them, the prices of good horses and bad horses also vary greatly. She is not very clear about what kind of money she can buy with the five slings in Gu Nan's arms.
Thinking of this, she regretted that she didn't bring out Bai Qina's driver, so at least she wouldn't be cheated.
Still dressed like a man, with the five pennies on his waist, Gu Nan looked around. Speaking of which, although he has lived in this place for more than three months, he has never really walked around the city. On weekdays, he practiced martial arts in Jun Wu'an's mansion all day long, and almost forgot the scene outside.
There are many people on the street, and there are hawkers hawking on both sides. It was considered a rare busy market in the Warring States Period. Gu Nan, who had never been in Xianyang City before, became interested. He stopped and walked, looked around, walked for half an hour, and almost forgot about buying horses.
Before I knew it, it was already around two o'clock in the afternoon.
"Boss, let's have a pancake." Gu Nan stood in front of the pancake stand, handed over a coin, grabbed a pancake, and took a bite. She needs to exercise in the morning, so she usually eats very little, and she has just finished exercising at noon, so she can't eat anything. By this time, I was already hungry.
The biscuit was just out of the oven, it was still hot, and it had a unique smell of charcoal fire. It was not delicious, but it was very filling for a hungry person.
The money for buying cooking cakes is her monthly money, um, to put it bluntly, it should be something like pocket money. The monthly money is not much, but it is enough for simple food and drink.
"Crack, click."
Gu Nan bit the pancake and lazily looked at the blue sky which was different from the later generations.
By chance, she lived a pretty good life in this troubled world. At least food and clothing.
To be honest, she is still very grateful to Bai Qi's family, not only because they took her in, but also from Bai Qi's attitude, Gu Nan really felt that they regarded her as a family, their own.
Because only one family will not treat you differently, and will not treat you specially. I won't treat you particularly well, but I will definitely not treat you badly. It just treats you as an ordinary member, but Gu Nan, an orphan, has never experienced such an environment.
In fact, she knew that Bai Qi taught herself to have his own ideas and desires. She can often see Bai Qi staring at a place in a daze, that way, he doesn't look like the Warring States Killer, but like an ordinary old man, worrying about things.
She didn't know what it was, and she wouldn't ask.
She only knew that one day Bai Qi would tell her about it, and she would do her best to complete it without any reason.
Even if it is her reward.
"Crack." Gu Nan clapped his hands after taking the last bite of the pancake, and prepared to go buy a horse.
Suddenly, he felt a hand reach up from his waist.
In an instant, she figured out what was going on, and smiled wryly on her face. It was really karma. She was still stealing from others a few months ago, but this time it was her turn to be stolen.
"Snapped."
After practicing martial arts for three months, her speed, strength, and reaction have all improved greatly.
Just a thought, and the thief's hand was already caught.
"Well, it really is the way of heaven and reincarnation." I was still stealing from others a few days ago, and now it's my turn.
Depressedly turning her head to look, Gu Nan was taken aback.
Standing behind her was a disheveled boy, about five or six years old.
There is something impressive about this kid, but there is no timidity in his eyes. It is a very different kind of eyes, calm and stubborn.
Seeing that Gu Nan had already grabbed his hand, he bit his lips: "Whatever you want, do as you like."
How to put it, the guy reacted more like an adult than a child.
Really not cute little devil.
Gu Nan curled her lips unhappily, and glanced at the boy.
After hesitating for a moment, he took out a string of more than a dozen coins from his pocket and put them in the little boy's hand, then let go of his hand. He said lightly, "Go and buy something to eat yourself."
This time, the boy was stunned.
He looked at the coins in his hand silently, but was speechless.
"There's not much left." Gu Nan didn't have much money in his hand, and the rest was money for buying horses.
"" The boy suddenly asked, "What's your name?"
"Yeah." After a pause, Gu Nan said, "Gu Nan."
"My name is Wei Zhuang, and I will definitely return this money to you in the future." The boy nodded firmly, bent over and bowed.
"It's up to you." Without hearing the boy's name clearly, Gu Nan waved his hand and left the stall.
Walking on the street, Gu Nan looked around silently, she knew why Bai Qi would give her a bite of food three months ago.
In this troubled world, the people who are wrong have never been these common people, let alone those children living on the streets.
But they are the ones who are homeless, they are the ones who have nothing to eat, and they are the only ones who suffer.
Forget it, I can't change anything, can I
Gu Nan shook his head, throwing away those unrealistic thoughts. She is not a savior, nor a saint, and she does not have such a great heart to save the suffering.
For her, earning a little money and becoming a rich landlord may be a good goal in life.
"If you let the child go like this, won't you be afraid that he will go back to his old career and go astray?"
A voice suddenly came from behind Gu Nan. The voice was not loud, but thick and clear. It could be heard that the man was full of blood. He should be a man in his twenties or thirties.
Looking back, it was true. He was probably in his twenties, and was wearing an official long robe. Looks like someone in business.
Should it be said that it is Xianyang City? It is so easy to meet this official.
Gu Nan glanced at him, and replied nonchalantly: "Oh, what's your opinion?"
Wang Jian himself was just wandering in the market, but he saw a little boy standing behind a "boy" stealthily from a distance.
Just as he was about to step forward to stop him, the little boy had already been caught by the "boy".
I thought that the boy would take the boy to the government, but who would have thought that the boy would give the boy a bunch of copper coins, so he left on his own.
Only then was he puzzled and stepped forward to stop the "boy" to ask.
You must know that since Shang Yang's reform, the laws of Qin State can be said to be very strict. If the "young man" acts like this, if it is known, he may be punished for the same crime.
The "boy" was stopped by him and turned his head.
But the moment the other party turned around, Wang Jian was dumbfounded.
