Chapter 37

Chapter 37 Seeing Through

Lantian City.

Bai Yan entered the city and was a little surprised when he saw the endless stream of pedestrians on the street in front of him.

Qin State has always emphasized agriculture and suppressed business. Although Bai Yan knew that suppressing business refers to ordinary people. There are countless merchants in Qin State.

But Bai Yan had always thought that most of the wealthy businessmen were in Shu and Xianyang.

Unexpectedly, I could see a bustling city scene in Lam Tin.

As Bai Yan walked, he looked at Old Soldier Yu in front of him.

Because there were too many people on the street, a carriage would pass by from time to time. Bai Yan walked very slowly along the way.

Bai Yan was walking, and while observing whether there were any Lu's shops, he found that there were so many restaurants in Lantian City. It even made him feel a bit like he was in Linzi, Qi State.

You must know that Linzi was the capital of Qi State. Business was extremely prosperous. During the period when the king and queen assisted the king of Qi in his construction, the people enjoyed cockfighting, and the nobles and nobles were even more addicted to horse racing and women in restaurants.

From the time when the queen was in power until now, not only Linzi, but all the cities and thousands of restaurants in the entire Qi State are under the control of the Qi royal family.

But unlike Linzi, this Lantian City is just a city near Daying.

In terms of status, in the Qin State, not to mention Xianyang and Yongcheng, even Jingyang, Yueyang, Shudi and other big cities, all crushed Lantian.

But there are so many restaurants here in Lam Tin.

"You kid is waiting outside!"

Old soldier Yu came to a shop and said to Bai Yan, then turned around and approached the shop.

Bai Yan raised his head and stared dumbfounded at the two big Chinese characters on the shop: Liquor Shop.

"Yu Bugeng is here to buy wine again!"

"I'm afraid all his annual salary was given to this wine shop."

"So what if I don't give him a drink? This Yu Bugeng is also a pathetic person."

When two men passed by, they saw this scene and whispered.

Bai Yan turned his head and looked at the two men. Obviously, the two men knew General Yu, and it was not the first time that he saw General Yu coming here to buy wine.

Thinking of this, Bai Yan couldn't help but be curious. His mentor once told him that the Qin State valued food very much because of wars between states. Qin's laws even stipulated that ordinary people's food could not be used to make wine.

This wine shop obviously has an unusual background!

Did you hear those two men just say that General Yu is a pitiful man?

Why do they say this?

"Let's go, boy."

By the time Bai Yan came to his senses, Old Man Yu had already walked out of the wine shop with a bulging thing hanging from his waist.

Bai Yan knew that there should be a wine flask inside.

"Um!"

Bai Yan said nothing and looked at General Yu walking in front, very confused.

In broad daylight, General Yu dared to come here to buy wine at the liquor store, and seemed to be planning to take it back to Lantian Camp.

General Yu is not afraid of being punished?

On the way back.

Old soldier Yu took a look at those restaurants.

"If your boy is not short of money, you can take other people to a restaurant for entertainment after Shen Shi's training without worrying about punishment."

Yu Laozu said as he walked.

Hear the words.

Bai Yan, who was walking behind, really didn't understand why Old Soldier Yu said this.

He even asked him to take the initiative to bring others to Lantian City after sunset to drink in these restaurants without worrying about punishment.

Not knowing what General Yu meant, Bai Yan did not speak, but continued to follow behind, listening as he walked.

When Bai Yan was confused, he suddenly heard General Yu walking in front speak.

"Although Liang Lang is impatient, he is a man without any scheming. If you want to be the first to ascend in the future, he will definitely be a great help to you."

One sentence made Bai Yan freeze on the spot, looking at General Yu's back.

Old soldier Yu looked at the pedestrians walking past him, looking over his shoulder and behind him, feeling a little confused.

Old Soldier Yu turned around and saw Bai Yan looking at him stupidly.

See the situation.

Old soldier Yu couldn't help but smile proudly on his slightly older face.

"Boy, let's go quickly."

After saying that, Old Soldier Yu turned around and continued walking towards the city gate.

Old soldier Yu was walking, and after a while, he heard the voice of the young man behind him.

"How did the general know?"

Listening to the young man behind him asking, a smile appeared in Yu Laozu's eyes.

He spent most of his life in the camp and led countless new soldiers.

At first, when I saw the young man wearing armor, he still had the surname Bai. Some people may have doubts. If he was greedy for life, why would he join the army even though he knew he had no title?

But then when the young man gave him the wooden sign, he saw the calluses on the young man's hands, and he immediately knew why the young man put on the armor.

He concluded that unlike other soldiers, this boy named Bai was here to risk his life!

Otherwise, with the calluses on his hands alone, the young man wouldn't need armor at all.

Generally speaking, for people who practice martial arts, the better their martial arts skills are, the less they like to be restrained.

This boy named Bai not only wears armor, but also adds protection to his hands and feet. Others may not be able to tell, but he is different. He knows that he must be planning something with such preparations.

War?

No, when two countries are fighting, they have thousands of troops. If they gain the upper hand, they will win. If they lose the upper hand, the thicker the armor, the easier it will be to become a burden.

All that's left is to attack the city.

But the only thing worthy of the young man's efforts and preparations is to attack the city first and get there first.

Bai Yan has been waiting for Old Soldier Yu's answer. He never thought that Old Soldier Yu didn't make a sound when he walked to the city gate, so he couldn't help but curl his lips.

Old soldier Yu ignored Bai Yan and walked alone.

A moment later, outside the city gate.

An old man and a young man walked towards Lantian Camp.

Inside Lantian Camp.

"Bai Yan, where have you been?"

Gui looked at Bai Yan with a puzzled look on his face, wondering why he hadn't seen Bai Yan since the morning.

"I followed General Yu to Lantian City."

Bai Yan said with a smile.

The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional, and his eyes widened.

"General Yu wants you to go with him to Lantian City?"

Gui was full of curiosity. This was the first time he heard that the general would take someone with him when he went out.

Bai Yan shook his head, he didn't understand either.

However, Bai Yan guessed that General Yu might have seen his purpose and reminded him kindly.

Bai Yan didn't know whether he was reminded because of the Bai family.

Gui looked at Bai Yan and didn't understand, so he didn't ask any more questions.

"Bai Yan, here are your sword and leather armor."

Gui followed Bai Yan to the tent, pointed to the stacked leather armor and the Qin sword placed on the leather armor, and said to Bai Yan.

The sword was just delivered, and Bai Yan was not there, so he took Bai Yan and put it in the tent.

"Thank you!"

Baiyan said to Gui with gratitude, "Gui is here, there are few people who don't look at him with 'eyes'."

"Your luck is not bad, it is a two-handed sword."

Gui said to Bai Yan, although most people also have two-handed swords.

But I heard that some people still get one-handed swords and can only hold the hilt with one hand.

Clang~!

Bai Yan picked up the Qin sword and then pulled it out, accompanied by the sound of the sword being unsheathed.

Bai Yanzai carefully looked at the flat and bright blade of the Qin sword in his hand, and saw that the name of the forger who made the Qin sword was engraved on it.

"What a sword!"

Bai Yan murmured.

Before he was in Qi State, he had always heard that Qin Jian was similar to "Six Qi", but different from "Six Qi".

Qin Jian's forging technology is far superior to other countries in today's world, and the specific gravity of forging materials has unknown details.

The name on the Qin sword corresponds to the Qin law's "Things are drawn to people's names to test their sincerity"!

Gui felt that when Bai Yan held the sword, the way he looked at it seemed a little different from usual.

Maybe it was an illusion, Gui didn't think much about it.

Bai Yan put away the Qin sword, and then put on the armor instead of the leather armor.

"Why don't you wear leather armor? Training with armor will be very tiring!"

Gui looked at Bai Yan with a surprised look on his face, wondering why Bai Yan put on heavier armor when he didn't wear good leather armor.
