Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Walking casually on the busy street, there is lightness under your feet.  The gorgeous sunshine is sprinkled among the green tiles and red walls everywhere, the abrupt cornices, the high-flying store signs and flags, the sparkling horses and carriages, the endless stream of pedestrians, the  All the peaceful and comfortable smiling faces all reflect the self-satisfaction of the people of Dachu for the prosperous and prosperous age.

    Walking on Gutan Street, Meng Xia savored the hustle and bustle of the big Chu capital, a bustling city and half a city full of smoke, how many people in the world are intoxicated.  This is the taste of the capital.

    Meng Xia casually walked into a restaurant on the side of the road, ordered a pot of the famous daughter red in the capital, and ordered a plate of red-billed green parrot and small white fish and amaranth soup. When she was a child, she heard Su Jiner's second brother Su Zizhong chanting, saying  I finally had the honor to taste these famous dishes in the capital today.

    He sat on the stool, raised his chopsticks to taste carefully, the taste was really good, the meat was tender and juicy, and the vegetable soup was fresh but not greasy, which is really worthy of praise.

    Meng Xia tasted the delicacy silently, listening to the discussions of the drinkers in the wine shop and the hawking in the market outside the window, watching the pedestrians who came and went leisurely outside the open door of the wine shop.

    Walking out of the restaurant, two or three dumb sparrows could not help but doze off among the tranced old trees beside the street.

    Meng Xia casually broke off a branch and held it in his hand, then walked slowly towards the main building of Jinyu Building, where the world's wealth gathers.

    ?The Jinyu Tower in the capital city is built in an extremely magnificent manner. Looking around, it looks like carved beams and painted buildings, and everything you see is golden, which is really shocking.

    The tallest building in the Great Chu Imperial City, Zhentian Pavilion, is divided into nine floors, which symbolizes the meaning of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, while the rest of the buildings are lowered to three floors to show respect.

    And there are very few buildings in the capital that can build six floors, and the main building of Jinyu Building is one of them.

    Meng Xia didn't come here simply to search for clues. Judging from the case in Zilin County, Jinyulou's influence has penetrated all over the country, even the local government. The control of Jinyulou's main building will only be stricter.  It would be better if we could find clues, if not, it would be the most famous place in the capital.

    When Meng Xia walked into the Jinyu Tower, the doorman at the door immediately stepped forward,

    "This young master, is this the first time you have come to Jinyu Tower?"

    "Oh? How do you know that this is my first visit to Jinyu Tower?"

    The little door boy smiled and said: "One is that the spring is just around the corner, and tributes from all over the country have come to the capital, so they will inevitably come to visit this building. Second, the young master has carefully looked at this building outside the door. If you have been to this building  You won't be like a son anymore."

    The little doorman is clever. He has observed all kinds of people all year round.  Although Meng Xia is dressed in ordinary clothes, but with her handsome appearance and good temperament, it is really hard to be no different from ordinary people.

    "I am indeed here for the first time, can you introduce me?"

    Meng Xia had a good impression of the little doorman in front of him.  He is not disgusted with Jin Yulou, but he is not disgusted with these people at the bottom, and he can still tell the difference.

    Following the doorman's introduction, Meng Xia learned that the main building of Jinyu Building has six floors. Unlike the sub-buildings in various places, the main building does not provide accommodation.

    The first floor is mainly used for treasure appraisal and consignment. There are the best treasure appraisers in Manda Chu to identify all kinds of treasures.

    The second to third floors are for the sale of treasures. The treasures collected by Jinyulou from all over the world are sold by product and order.

    The layout of the fourth floor is very simple. As soon as you go up to the fifth floor, you can see a plaque with four big characters on it, "Tongtianknows the earth".  There are four lists hanging on the walls around them, with the words 'Heaven and Earth', 'Wisdom', 'Beauty', and 'Treasures' written on them.

    The fifth floor is the auction house, where many rare treasures are auctioned at sky-high prices, but the fourth floor is not open every day. Generally speaking, there are only two auctions in a month.  The gold and silver earned are sky-high prices, and the auctioned ones are also extraordinary.

    The sixth floor is an independent attic.

    "This fourth floor is interesting, can you take me there to have a look?"

    After listening to the first three floors, Meng Xia is not interested in him at present, and there is no auction on the fifth floor today. The only thing that interests him is the "knowledge of heaven and earth" on the fourth floor.

    "Young master, please follow me."

    This little doorman has been trained well. If customers go to other floors, they will get rewards regardless of whether they buy or sell goods. Only the fourth floor, they don't get any income at all.  Dissatisfied with only wanting to go to the fourth floor, she still warmly guides Meng Xia.

    The little doorman leads the way in front, and there are other doormen immediately behind to fill the position of the little doorman to welcome the next guest.  I have to say that there is still some way for Jinyulou to spread all over Dachu.I can't pick out any flaws in the work I sent.

    Meng Xia followed the little doorman to the fourth floor. As the little doorman said, a plaque was hung horizontally on the top, on which was written "The Heavens Know the Earth", written vigorously, free and easy, full of vigor.

    Meng Xia's sixth sense felt that the plaque was a bit strange, but it was hard to say what was so strange.

    Going up to the fourth floor, just like the introduction of the little doorman, there are four lists hanging on the four walls, Meng Xia asked,

    "What do these four lists mean?"

    The little doorman replied respectfully: "My lord, these four lists are the ones that the high-ranking officials and people in the world are more concerned about, like this list,"

    The little doorman introduced to Meng Xia as he walked,

    "The list of 'beauties' is a collection of hundreds of beauties from all ethnic groups in various places today, and they are ranked on it in order."

    Meng Xia glanced at it, and there were indeed densely written names on the list, but some had detailed introductions, and some had only a few strokes. The higher the ranking, the shorter the introduction. The sixth place only wrote one line of "Yaozu, Yu Sisi".

    There is only one code name for the top five, for example, the third place is called Wonderful Fairy.

    "Young Master, the opposite of beautiful women is this list of 'talented scholars'. Those who can be on the list are all talented and well-educated, but none of the great Confucian scholars are on the list."

    "Oh? Why is that?"

    The little door boy seemed to know that Meng Xia wanted to ask this question, and immediately opened his mouth to answer: "If you are a general, you will have a world, and if you are poor, you will be independent and famous. The sky cannot die, the earth cannot be buried, and the world of Jiezhi cannot be polluted. No one can stand without a great scholar.  Therefore, this list is not included in the Great Confucianism."

    Meng Xia smiled, "Hey, you little boy has some knowledge."

    Hearing Meng Xia's praise, Xiaotong scratched his head,

    "These are all taught by my landlord. In fact, the villain doesn't understand what this sentence means."

    Meng Xia became even more curious about this gold and jade landlord. If he didn't have any Confucian background, he wouldn't be able to say this.

    Seeing that Meng Xia was almost ready, the little door boy followed and guided Meng Xia to the list of 'treasures'.

    This list is more densely written and divided into categories.  There are magic weapons, heaven and earth spiritual objects, foreign treasures and so on.

    Meng Xia glanced over it, and now he is most interested in this "Heaven and Earth" list.
