But why did Eldest Uncle say the word "enlightened"? Before leaving, Jun Linyue asked again, "Uncle, are you saying that the current Endless Sun is not enlightened?"
Eldest Uncle was preparing to rein in the rope, but he paused and then said, "Remember what I told you about getting along with Zhuzhou officials. You must have been up there ever since you were a kid and never got along with these low-level officials. After a while, you'll understand what I mean. Sigh, I won't say anymore. If we say these words again, it will bring about a calamity to our lives! "
His last words were long, like self-deprecation, but also like helplessness. With that, the boatman raised his pole and slowly walked away from the shore. Jun Lanyue stood there, a frown on his face. After some thought, he muttered to himself, "I'll give it a try."
On the road, someone looked at him but only glanced at him once. He had already evacuated the crowd, but there were still some people who were silently watching him from the hospital. Even though Jun Lin Yue had seen this, he didn't think it was a good thing. From now on, he had to be careful of where he went. When others ask him, he must not reveal his identity.
Because right now, he was feeling a little awkward. Not only that, he was also feeling a little awkward in the Black Tortoise City of Qingzhou.
He raised his head and saw the huge city wall of Zhuzhou. However, the willow trees here were big and tall. They were almost at the top of the city gate tower. The distance from the city wall to the river was not very far, but the wild was not close. This very wide road outside the city had become a place where people could relax and enjoy themselves, leading to important exits from the other eight states.
It was worth mentioning that thousands of years ago, when the Human Emperor was building water traffic in the Central Region, he had put in great effort to pull it out from the depths of the northwest mountains. With the help of the natural lake and the help of the terrain, he was able to build a great river that seemed to run through the entire Nine Prefectures in a short span of twenty years. This river was not only able to carry goods, it also made it convenient for the nine prefectures to communicate with each other. It was just that a large amount of water flow required a much longer and stronger mountain, so it took a lot of manpower and financial resources.
However, many years later, whether it was precipitation or drainage, they all achieved significant success. Therefore, this Grand Canal of the Nine Prefectures had also become the symbol and blood of the people's hearts.
He had never admired the great river before, and now that he looked at it, he felt a sense of peace and security. He could not help but take a deep breath and quietly breathe in the fresh air.
After a period of time, he tidied himself up and headed for the gate of the outer city of Zhuzhou. The guards of this city were almost the same as those of Qingzhou. Their armors were also almost the same. In the end, they were controlled by a Human Emperor. Even thousands of miles away they could do it with accuracy.
Two rows of guards were standing on either side of the door in a trapezoidal formation. They didn't obstruct or search the people who were entering the gate. Jun Lanyue had even made preparations for them stopping him from interrogating him. However, no one stopped him as he continued to walk inside.
As soon as he entered the outer city of Zhuzhou, he arrived at a bustling city. Compared to the Azure Province, this busy city was a lot larger. There were many merchants on both sides, as if it was a holiday. However, the road in the middle was very wide. The insides of the city wall marked the time of construction of the city wall. Jun Linyue lowered his head to look at the words. They were very small, and after calculating the time, he also wasn't able to clearly calculate it. Thus, he gave up. However, it seemed that this city wall was at least several hundred years old.
As he walked deeper in, it was still a busy city. He could not use the power of the officials to head to the Great left city, because this matter had not been approved by the Human Emperor. Searching for jade ornaments, once discovered, would be a rather troublesome matter. Moreover, Jun Lin Yue's identity had now been suspected, and he was currently in an awkward period.
At this time, he felt hungry, so he looked around for something to eat. Every time Jun Lanyue paid, he would only get a shard of silver, so he was soon out of money. He knew very little about the concept of money. He did not know that a single silver coin could buy more than ten small shops like these on the roadside.
Seeing that no one had ever seen silver before, Jun Lanyue felt a pang in his heart. However, objectively speaking, the stall owner had never seen such a large amount of silver. He saw that everyone else used bronze coins to buy their wares, so he asked a stall owner, "Brother, how many copper coins is this piece of crushed silver worth?"
The younger brother's eyes were wide open as he said, "Such a large chunk of silver?" Go to the bank! This piece of copper coin is enough for you to use for half a year! "
Jun Lanyue said in surprise, "Really? It's so magical!? "
The peddler replied with disdain, "Then if you don't believe me, I'll help you trade!" Jun Linyue was not so foolish as to ask, "Where is the bank?"
However, the peddler crossed his arms and ignored him, as if he was angry. Jun Lin Yue took a deep breath and said, "Fine, tell me where the bank is and I'll give this piece of silver to you!"
The peddler's eyes lit up, as if guessing his thoughts. "Really? "Really?"
Just as Jun Lanyue was about to take out a few taels of silver from his storage ring, a familiar voice called out from behind him, "Hey!" You're stupid! "
Jun Lanyue turned his head and saw that it was actually Yun Dai'er. "You're using silver to return the money, and you're even giving it to someone else. Do you have so much money that you don't have any place to use it?"
Jun Lanyue didn't bother to greet her brother. After a brief moment of surprise, he asked, "What should I do then? I don't know!"
"I really can't do anything to you!" With a sigh, she covered her face with the veil and dragged Jun Lin Yue away. All that was left was the dejected hawker at the side.
Walking to a quiet place, Yun Dai'er took off her veil and said, "This is not how money is spent." How much is enough for you to use it like this? Before it was finished, I starved to death! "
Jun Linyue nodded in agreement. "Then let's go to the bank. I'm hungry now!"
"Sigh, let's go, let's go. I'm not familiar with Zhuzhou either." As he finished speaking, he led Jun Lanyue into a restaurant. There were many people eating there, and every table was a little crowded. Everyone ate their meals in a very peculiar manner.
Could it be because there wasn't enough space? Jun Linyue murmured in his heart as he surveyed his surroundings. Yun Dai Er seemed a bit annoyed, the waiter who came to greet her called out, "Two guests, please come upstairs. There is a private room upstairs."
"Quick, quick, quick!" Yun De'er waved her hand, indicating that she was about to be unable to take it anymore.
It was the first time that Jun Lin Yue had seen so many people eating together: steamed buns, liquor, steamed vegetables, fried fish and prawns … They all sat on the table, watching with drool flowing out of their mouths.
