I was the best old lady in ancient times

"Oh, my lord, my dear brother Misnin, how long has it been since we saw each other?"

John shrugged and asked after Ning Lao Si hugged him vigorously.

After asking, I found that Ning Pengpeng was still standing behind Miss Ning.

Immediately, his eyes widened in surprise, and he stepped forward to look Ning Pengpeng up and down in disbelief and said.

"Oh, Your Majesty, it's beyond my expectation that you will come.

If I knew you would come, I would definitely contact the members of the royal family here to welcome you. "

After all, in John's heart, Ning Pengpeng is equivalent to a member of the royal family on their side.

Ning Pengpeng knew that just now John wanted to reach out to hold her hand and kiss the back of her hand.

However, she pretended not to know that they had such etiquette, and just replied with a smile.

"Mr. John, you are polite. Since I came here with my son, this is naturally a private trip, and there is no need to disturb the royal family on your side.

By the way, I heard that you helped buy a big manor here for the Ning family, can we go and have a look now?
After all, we had been on the ship for so long, and now that we had finally landed, we had to freshen up and rest for the night to recover from fatigue. "

As if responding to Ning Pengpeng's words, after Ning Yongkang got off the boat, he looked at the people around him and remained silent.

As soon as Ning Pengpeng's words fell, he couldn't bear it anymore, turned around and ran to the side of the road, vomited.

Seeing him like this, Ning Pengpeng was speechless.

Unexpectedly, Ning Yongkang got seasick on the boat, and after getting off the boat, he would still faint?

John did not expect that among the people brought by Missining, the seasickness was so severe.

Originally, he suppressed the idea of ​​inviting Ning Pengpeng and Ning Lao Si to have a meal together, and nodded thoughtfully, asking the servant to drive the carriage over.

There are a lot of things on this ship, which can be unloaded and sold directly at the pier.

Therefore, Fourth Ning was not in a hurry to unload the cargo from the ship.

He just ordered his men to take care of the ship when they left.

Those who came with him this time were also those who came here often.

Therefore, after listening to his instructions, everyone stayed where they should be guarded, and did not let anyone approach them.

After Ning Laosi gave his orders, he helped Ning Pengpeng into the carriage and set off for the manor he bought.

The manor took a carriage from the pier for more than two hours, that is, almost four hours.

Ning Pengpeng was sitting on the carriage just now, looking out from the window, looking at the receding trees and the somewhat muddy road by the side of the road, he could feel that the speed of the carriage was not too slow.

If it is said, the vicinity of the pier has become a market because of the boats coming and going.

Most of the houses here are built of stone, and the exotic style can be seen at a glance.

The roads in the market are all paved with stones, and the sound of carriages rolling over can be heard.

However, after leaving the scope of the market and going out through a gate of the city wall, only trees can be seen.

Except for the trees on both sides of the road and some unidentifiable fields, there were only their carriages on the road, and there were no passers-by at all.

Therefore, even if the speed of the carriage is fast, there will be no problem.

What Ning Jiner saw when she got off the boat and what she saw now seemed to be two worlds, which shocked her so much that she couldn't help asking Ning Laosi.

"Daddy, why is there nothing outside the city here?"

In the Jin Dynasty, although there were many people living in the city, there were also many people living near the outside of the city.

The outside of the city is definitely not like this. There are always some people from the countryside driving mule carts or ox carts into the city to sell things.

Here, it seems that there is no one outside the city.

Regarding his daughter's question, Ning Laosi also asked John when he first arrived here.

John told him with a smile, because besides the nobles here, there are common people. The nobles live in the inner city, and the common people live in the outer city.

The civilians here are equivalent to skilled people, so they will basically live in the outer city and take on some jobs that the nobles need.

For civilians like them, it would be good to earn some copper coins every day.

Unless the craftsmanship is very good, very outstanding.

Maybe you can get a reward from the nobles and give some silver coins.

As for the gold coins, that is something you don't even think about.

If it weren't for John's ancestors being of noble blood, he wouldn't be able to break into the inner city of nobles and earn gold coins from those noble gentlemen.

Of course, if John didn't have any business skills, he and his descendants would eventually become the same as those ordinary people in the outer city who earned some copper coins by their crafts.

However, even if it is an outer city, there is still a city wall outside to protect the nobles and civilians in the city.

Similarly, if the city breaks down, the first to die will be the civilians living in the outer city!

Besides the nobles and commoners in the city, there are only slaves.

In the eyes of nobles, slaves are inferior to the cattle and horses in the manor.

Commoners are not allowed to own slaves, and slaves in noble families are allowed to appear in front of their masters except when cleaning and delivering meals.

At other times, they have to stay in the kitchen or work in the stable.

If he appeared in front of his master at other times, he might be whipped to death by his master.

For the nobles, killing a slave by killing them is no different from crushing an ant to death.

Therefore, slaves stay where they should be unless they are allowed, and will never run out casually, unless they want to seek death.

Hearing her father's explanation, Ning Jin'er couldn't help but took out a pen and paper from her satchel, and jotted it down.

Speaking of the satchel and pen, Ning Pengpeng helped her find a way to get them.

Ning Pengpeng gave a rough outline of the satchel and called Ning Jin'er's maid to come over, but it took only half an hour to finish it.

As for the pen, it is charcoal.

Although the ship is at sea, it still cooks food every day.

So, I removed the head of a brush, stuffed the charcoal into the pen holder, tied it with a rope, and it was a simple charcoal pen.

In this way, it is also convenient for Ning Jiner to hear what he wants to memorize anytime and anywhere, and he can take it out and write it down first, and then copy it at night.

Ning Jin'er is very fond of these two things.

"It seems that these slaves here have a worse life than our servants over there!"

Ning Pengpeng listened, smiled, and did not speak.

The oppression of slaves here in the west is probably many times more severe than that of the Great Jin Dynasty. At least in the Great Jin Dynasty, it is not allowed to kill servants at will.

If the master kills the subordinates at will, although he will not be sentenced to death, he will be sentenced to one year in prison. If he kills maliciously, he will be given a higher class, and he will be sentenced to one and a half years in prison.

Of course, if it is found that the master did not intend to cause the death of the servant, the master will be found not guilty.

Ask for a monthly pass, please!
