Chapter 1331 (1/2)
Originally, as an emperor, generally speaking, he would not take private visits lightly.
But this time, the situation was different. The emperor was also very interested in the changes in the Miao area. However, the reason why he finally decided to take a risk was that the Jin soldiers were going south. Relying on the strength of the current country, it was impossible to resist the Jin soldiers.
If there is such a magical thing in the Miao area as the minister said, then even the emperor has to consider communicating with the other side. After all, face doesn't matter as much as a country's ruin.
So the emperor took Gu Zong, his imperial bodyguard and a trustworthy Taoist to Miao.
But to the emperor's surprise, Gu Zong did not take them to Dali immediately. Instead, he took a boat all the way to Zhangzhou.
”Gu Qing, why are you here?”
Stepping out of the boat, the emperor was quite puzzled, but Gu Zong replied in a low voice.
”To the Emperor...” My Lord, there happens to be a flying boat connecting Dali. We can take a flying boat here and go to Dali. ”
”Oh?”
Hearing Gu Zong's reply, the emperor was stunned.
”The boat Have you arrived in Zhangzhou now? ”
”Yes, it's not only Zhangzhou, Chengdu, Jiangling, Xiangyang and other places that have been connected to the fairway.”
”Hum, but I didn't?”
Hearing this, the emperor's face sank again, obviously not very happy. Then he swung his sleeve and strode forward.
”Come on, let's see what's so strange about the flying boat.”
”Follow me, my Lord.”
As he said this, Gu Zong took the emperor away from the dock, and then came to a strange building not far away. The building was built close to the mountain and looked like a temple, but he built a long platform on the hillside. I don't know what the use was. At present, many people are waiting on the platform, most of them businessmen.
”Gu Qing? What about the boat
The emperor turned his head and looked around for a long time, but did not see the shadow of the flying boat, while Gu Zong gave a wry smile.
”The Emperor My Lord, it's not the time yet. I've bought tickets. We can go directly to the VIP room later... ”
”Tickets?”
”Yes, my Lord, the way to take the boat is strange. The tickets are counted according to the head, and each person has one vote. The front row is a special class, which is luxurious and gorgeous. Generally, people with noble status and rich can take it, and the ticket price is one hundred Liang silver. The back is the ordinary cabin, only a table and chair, a pot of herbal tea, the ticket price is ten Liang silver
”Well It's not too expensive. ”
Hearing Gu Zong's reply, the emperor nodded with satisfaction, and Gu Zong also laughed.
”That's true. Although it's a little expensive for ordinary people, it's fast, safe and convenient to go to the Miao border from here. It's worth spending more money.”
”That's the truth.”
Of course, the emperor also understood what Gu Zong meant. In this era, if ordinary people want to go to miaojiang, they will have to walk along the mountain road for a long time, not to mention the beasts, monsters, bandits and bandits hidden in the mountain forest. Ordinary people may die on the way if they are not careful.
Considering the time and energy required on the way, it's better to spend more money on the boat. Besides being a little more expensive, it's comfortable and safe, so it's a good choice.
”Dang...” Dang...! ”
Just as they were talking, the bell suddenly rang, and then the people on the platform suddenly rushed forward with excitement. Seeing this scene, the emperor was also shocked.
”This, this is...”
At this time, Gu Zong also said to the emperor, and then extended his hand to the sky.
