Chapter 39
Tianmen Pass is the first pass in Tiansheng, across the northernmost border of Tiansheng Kingdom. Although Beiguan is still experiencing famine, this place is still a bit lively. Most of the traffic are caravans, and almost all of these caravans pass through Luzhou. Go all over the country.

"go!"

The guards at Tianmen Pass were more conscientious than those in Beiguan County.

Duan Yuzhi withdrew the pass order, and this Yunyang was considerate in his work. The pass order was a customs clearance document stamped by Tiansheng and Beili. Only caravans with this order can travel between the two countries for trade.

He pulled the guard over the gate and said mysteriously, "General, do you know a general named A Xing?"

The soldier looked at him warily. The man's face seemed to be buried in a beard. He was wearing a large and bloated Beili dress and a cloth cap. His eyebrows were covered, leaving only a pair of clear eyes. How could he look at him? Strange.

"What are you doing! Why are you looking for him!"

Duan Yuzhi smiled, and secretly stuffed him with a few coins.

"Ah Xing is a friend from my hometown. I heard that he became a general in Beiguan. Didn't I just bring my family here to do business? I want to visit him by the way."

The soldier quickly stuffed the silver into his clothes, looked at his carriage, the curtain was tightly covered, but he didn't ask too much, he whispered,

"You are late. This Ah Xing was originally our deputy team leader. He committed a crime some time ago and was driven back to his hometown."

"Ah, isn't magistrate Hu his relative? Did he make a big mistake and get kicked out?"

Hearing this, the soldier seemed to conclude that he and Ah Xing were indeed good friends, let go of his defenses, and sighed, "Hey, who knows! He was the one who ordered Ah Xing to deliver the goods out of the city, and the next day he was the one who sent the goods out of the city." I regretted it, said that it was Ah Xing who made up his own mind, and sent him back."

"This matter is really unjust!"

Duan Yuzhi said goodbye to him, and drove into the city in a carriage.

Sheng Yang lazily said in the car, "Teacher Duan is good at acting."

Duan Yuzhi shook his head and smiled, "Not as good as my driving skills, what do you think, Your Highness?"

"Duan Lang, your name is wrong, I am Mrs. Duan."

"Okay, ma'am."

Not long after the carriage passed, the carriages and horses entering the customs gradually dispersed as soon as the gate of heaven passed. There were not many people who entered Beiguan with them. Duan Yuzhi frowned as he looked at the group of carriages following closely behind.

He deliberately stopped the horses and moved aside to let them pass first. Unexpectedly, this group of carriages also stopped.

A few men from the North Li country got off the carriage and walked towards him.

"Hello fellow."

The man at the head was tall and burly, with a beard that was even more exaggerated than the fake one on Duan Yuzhi's face.

"Hello." Duan Yuzhi tried to keep smiling.

"Where do you come from?"

"Pearl's."

"So are we!"

"Where are you guys going?"

"It's in Beiguan City."

He looked at the carriage, "You don't look like you are in business, what are you doing here?"

"My wife is homesick and wants to go back to her hometown in Feng County."

"Oh... Your wife is from Feng County?"

"Yes."

"No wonder you are so polite! Hahahaha, not like us from Beili!"

Several big men let out a burst of laughter.

"Hehe." Duan Yuzhi smiled awkwardly.

"It seems that you are very familiar with this place," the man thought for a moment, "Have you ever heard of a food street near here?"

"Gourmet Street?" Duan Yuzhi was puzzled.

Seeing him like this, with an expression of saying something wrong, the man immediately waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I don't know if you look like this."

"Sorry, my wife married me when she was a teenager, and we have been away from here for ten years."

"Not much has changed here." The man patted him on the shoulder.

"No, I don't know much about this place anymore. The demon street you mentioned just now? I've never heard of it."

"It's only in recent years. Does your family not do business?"

"Our family mainly does farming."

The man looked him up and down, "You don't look like an ordinary farmer, do you have a Zhuangzi at home?"

"Ha ha."

Duan Yuzhi smiled awkwardly again. After asking the way, if they still don't leave, what do these people want to do?
"Okay, we're going to do some business in Beiguan, so let's leave it alone!"

They hurriedly turned around and ran into the carriage. A dozen or so carriages passed by them, kicking up dust.

Hearing the sound of horseshoes fading away, Sheng Yang opened the curtain and stuck out his head, "What are they doing?"

"I don't know either." Duan Yuzhi got into the carriage and fiddled with the reins, and the carriage stepped on the empty Beiguan Street again. "They seem to be asking for directions."

"Where is the food street they are talking about?"

Duan Yuzhi frowned, "I don't know, go to the restaurant and ask."

When they arrived at the restaurant, they were dumbfounded again. There were more than a dozen carriages parked at the door, and a group of people were unloading their luggage. Among them was a big man with beards. Seeing him was like a butcher seeing a chicken, Come over with bright eyes.

"Brother, you're here too!" He patted Duan Yuzhi.

Duan Yuzhi felt that his sternum was almost broken, and the strength was too great.

"Hello, we met again."

This caravan is quite big, and these big guys also seem to have kung fu. He and Sheng Yang are just two people, and they still have a mission. It's better to have a good attitude and don't mess with them. He forced a smile when he thought of this.

"This is really fate! My name is Tuzhi, and you!"

"My name is Duan Yu."

"Huh," Tu Zhi asked curiously, "Why haven't I heard of this surname in Mingzhu?"

"I..." He was sweating in his heart, "My family used to be from Beiguan, and my grandfather used to be from Tiansheng."

Tuzhi suddenly realized, "Ah, like this! It's okay! You don't have to feel inferior because you are not a native of Beili, we never look down on people of any race!"

Duan Yuzhi nodded.

"You guys come here too, I heard that this is the biggest restaurant in Beiguan!"

"We just happened to be here," Duan Yuzhi raised his head, "Wenxianglou."

What is the difference between Wenyulou in Pingyang?Is this more than [-] taels because the family property is too much, and the name is so casual.

"We are here specially! I heard that this is the first restaurant opened by Fu Yu Wanliang in Luzhou. Let's see how good it is!" The big man was very happy, and said, "We thought it was closed! There was a restaurant a few days ago The folks who went back said that there was a famine in Beiguan recently, and all the shops on the street were closed! We were so worried about how to do this business! We decided to go to a further place, such as Pingyang, to try our luck and see if we can You can’t sell the goods at a good price!”

"Duan Lang."

Sheng Yang stretched out his hand from the carriage, and Duan Yuzhi took her hand, opened the curtain, and half-supported and half-carried her out of the carriage.

The big man's eyes widened. The brother's wife did not expect to be so beautiful!
She is wearing a traditional Beili dress, a sheepskin shawl, leather boots, a turban covering half of her face, and a silver forehead ornament on her forehead, which is the most common style among women in Beili, but There was a sparkle between her eyes, and for a moment she didn't know whether it was the silver jewelry that made her beautiful, or whether she had borrowed the silver jewelry.

"Wow! Brother, your wife is too beautiful!"

"Thank you."

Sheng Yang smiled generously, this person is informal, and has a lot of practical words, if she hadn't come down to interrupt him, I'm afraid I heard him say that he would not be able to enter the gate of Wenxianglou last night.

She moved in while laughing, and a group of people followed her and finally entered the gate.

"Brother Tu, just now I heard you said that there was a famine in Beiguan. Hey, because of this, I couldn't let go of my family, so I insisted that my husband take me back to visit relatives."

Several people walked to the counter, and the waiter hurriedly greeted him when he saw that there was a big business coming.

"Sister, you don't need to panic, the famine is all destined, just like we didn't last month..."

Xiaoer interrupted, "Madam, don't worry, the famine in Beiguan will be resolved soon. The Holy One is wise, and the imperial court will send people to deliver food immediately."

"Oh?" Duan Yuzhi was a little unhappy when he interrupted Tuzhi, "How do you know?"

"Look at what you said, the people of Beiguan know about such a big event! Our restaurant just reopened today!"

"That's all right, ma'am, you can rest assured."

Seeing Duan Yuzhi stroking his wife's hand, the big man said affectionately and enviously, "Brother and wife have such a good relationship! It's not like me and me, who want to beat me up when they see me!"

"Brother Tu, my sister-in-law cares about you! You should also care about her more. Only when the two of you understand each other can you live a good life."

"The girl is right!"

Tuzhi gulped down a cup of tea, like drinking wine, and had nothing to say for a while, so he drank a few more glasses of water.

When the waiter came over to serve the food again, he grabbed the waiter and asked, "Do you know a place?"

Xiao Er was stunned, "Guest officer, what place are you talking about?"

"I don't know what it's called, but it's a place where a lot of rare goods are sold."

Xiao Er's face froze, looked at Duan Yuzhi and Sheng Yang who were on the table, and said awkwardly, "This... guest officer, Beiguan is so small, just a few streets, if you can't find it, I don't even know the little one..."

He let go of Xiao Er's arm, "What you said is also reasonable."

Xiao Er almost fled in despair.

He sighed, "Hey! I was impulsive, I thought that place is not something shameful, everyone knows it!"

"Where is the big brother talking about?"

"I only heard from a brother in my hometown what it was called Yao Street. It was near Beiguan, and it sold what I needed, so I came here... Who knew that I couldn't ask anyone along the way, shouldn't it... Could it be Didn’t he tell me he’s in Beiguan?”

The big man was lost in thought.

Duan Yuzhi and Sheng Yang were thinking about half of what he said just now. They claimed to be from Beili, and it was not easy to ask what happened last month, so they had to find another opportunity to ask.

"Hey, those people who died just now are from the military camp?"

The people at the next table were discussing.

"It should be, I don't know who killed it, it's terrible."

Seeing that they were paying attention to the conversations of the people next to them, the big man explained, "Just now, I met some dead people on the road. The weapons looked like those of the Weibei Army. My little brothers might have been frightened."
