Chapter 6239 Baishui Tower
After experiencing this little episode, the next morning, the group continued to set off.
Because I knew that there were figures like gods, whether they were warriors or porters, they seemed to have their feet become lighter, and there were no accidents next. After more than ten days, I arrived at the territory of Jiujianghu.
Next, there are two roads to choose from, one is to take the water route, directly cross the Jiujianghu Lake to the territory of the White Fox clan, and the other is to take the land route. Compared with the two, because the next road is muddy and difficult to walk, the water route will definitely be faster, especially with a person like Lin Haoming, Wan Ji changed his previous plan and directly hired a big boat to change the water route he didn't walk much.
After changing into the waterway, everyone was more convenient, and the porter had a rest time, while Lin Haoming and others stood at the bow of the boat, admiring the vast misty waves of the Jiujiang Lake.
Although midsummer has passed, you can still see lotus leaves everywhere on the lake. The boats picking lotus pods shuttle through it. As they enter deeper waters, fishing boats set sail.
"This is one of the best times in Jiujianghu."
After Lin Haoming performed his miracle, the pair of Lin Haoming was even more attentive. He also knew that these people in the Xuanmen liked to be happy, so he specially prepared wine and dishes and placed them directly on the deck to enjoy them.
Jiujiang Lake is calm during this season, and enjoying the scenery of the lake and mountains while drinking is also a pleasure in life.
After three days like this, the ship headed towards the shore again. Because it saved at least five or six days on the waterway, Wanli proposed to go to the most prosperous Jiujiang City along the Jiujiang Lake.
It was boring to be on the boat all the time. Since Wanli proposed, he agreed. So the group of people docked at Jiujiangcheng Wharf in the afternoon.
Jiujiang City is the prefecture of Jiujiang Prefecture in Bai Kingdom. Bai Kingdom is slightly different from Jing Kingdom and Kun Kingdom. It is not based on the county system, but is managed as if it is managed. Although it is somewhat similar to the county, it is essentially caused by the relatively powerful local tribes.
In some places in the north, it is closer to the governance method of Kun Kingdom, while in most parts of the south, the tribal leaders decide everything.
At present, Jiujiang Prefecture is nominally a county, and it is also a big county. The entire Jiujiang Lake is within its jurisdiction, and Jiujiang City is naturally a top priority. It can be regarded as the most important city in the central and northern Bai Kingdom.
Because it is located on the main waterway traffic road in the middle of Baiguo, it is natural to say that it is prosperous. Wanli does business and most of the time it will transport goods here, and then resell them by other local cloth merchants, so it is very familiar with this place.
After boarding the pier, Wanli packed an inn not far from the pier. After leaving, the porters and warriors also scattered their things. It was difficult to get such a big city, so they naturally had some fun looking for it. Lin Haoming and others went to the street market to stroll.
Although the customs of Bai Kingdom are very different from those of the other two countries, there is not much difference in Jiujiang City, so I asked Wanli casually what good places to go here.
Wan Jian wanted to have fun when he saw everyone, so he took Lin Haoming to the most famous Baishui Tower here.
This Baishui Building is not a nominal building or brothel, but is actually a rare coupe. Of course, it is also a gold-selling nest here. In addition to betting on beasts, there are also all the fun that can be found in general gold-selling nests.
Because it was afternoon and there was still some time before the evening when we arrived here, so there were not many people. Wanli was also considered an old customer here. As soon as he arrived, he was recognized by the host in charge of the entertainment and was directly welcomed to the private room.
The so-called private room is actually a wing room. From the window of the wing room, you can see the Colosseum outside. The Colosseum is a circular venue with a large area, but it has not started at the moment. There are only a few artists performing acrobatics to perform for guests, which is also a transition between each show.
The owner of the venue is a middle-aged man in his thirties. He looks kind but is wise and has a ruler in his heart. Obviously, he is the kind of person who cannot be looked at.
After waiting for a large group of people to come into the private room, he greeted with a smile: "Boss Wan, you haven't come for time. The last time I came last year, but every time you came, it's a coincidence that there will be a dragon and tiger fight tonight."
"What is a dragon and tiger fight?" He Wanfeng asked curiously.
"It's just a big snake fighting with a tiger." Wan Lian had a lot of knowledge and explained casually.
"Tonight, both dragons and tigers are both fierce. It is difficult to tell the outcome of both sides, and no one can tell, so they will lose one." The owner introduced with a smile.
"It's all about losing one, what's the profit of using the white house?" He Wanfeng continued to ask.
Wan Zize explained with a smile: "This is a commission. If you lose, you don't draw money. If you win, you will draw 10% of the money."
"What kind of snake is this snake, and what kind of tiger is a tiger?" He Wanfeng continued to ask, as if he was very interested in this beast fighting.
The owner also smiled and introduced: "This snake is a giant golden python, and the tiger is the tiger caught near our Jiujianghu. The tigers were hungry for three days before the beast fighting, so it will definitely be a battle between dragons and tigers."
Listening to the owner's introduction, He Wanfeng was really moved. After thinking about it for a while, he really made a bet on Tiger's side.
Wanli would play with it every time he came, so he also set a little bargaining chip at will. Now he is a tiger, which is for He Wanfeng to support him. As for the others, they are not very interested in it.
When the owner left to greet the others, Lin Haoming asked casually: "When Wan Junwai comes here every time he comes here?"
"Haha, in addition to playing, this place is actually a place full of human nature. Some high-ranking officials and nobles in Bai Country like to play this, and they can meet them from time to time here. It is difficult for me, a businessman, if you don't have these relationships well, fortunately, the officials here in Bai Country are generally trustworthy." Wan Jian said helplessly.
In addition to fighting beasts, Baishuilou does have other entertainments, and of course it also provides wine and food. In fact, the food here is not bad compared to some other restaurants. At least these people are quite satisfied with the food at the moment.
Before the so-called dragon and tiger battle began, there were two other beast fighting performances. From Wanli’s introduction, it was learned that there was also a fight between humans and beasts in Baishui Tower, but it was banned later. However, it still exists in some places further south. This is not cruel, but some insufficient warriors in the Bai Kingdom regard being able to hunt beasts with their own achievements as their achievements. Therefore, many people will participate in such a battle in order to become famous or prove their strength. Although most of them will win, there are naturally accidents, and there are many.
