Chapter 100: Qingluan Main Street

The Kingdom of Cyan, the imperial capital.

In the early morning, the sun shines warmly on the earth.

A sudden morning breeze blew open the empty window in an instant, and the morning light shone through the window into the guest room.

Yueye was sleeping on the floor of the guest room. The bird suddenly shook its wings and slowly flew to Yueye, and stopped and watched for a while, then rushed to Yueye's ears. When it faced Yueye's ears, there was a chirping noise.

Yue Ye suddenly woke up from his sleep. He frowned immediately, squinted his eyes, and reached out to drive away the bird's extraordinary.

Bufan alertly avoided Yue Ye's sweeping arm and flew from Yue Ye's left ear to his right ear.

The chirping noises once again disturbed the moonlit night that was still sleeping soundly.

Yue Ye stretched reluctantly, then raised his hand and rubbed his sleepy eyes.

After a while, Yue Ye opened his sleepy eyes slightly, but saw the dazzling sunshine outside the window shining into the room along the wide open window.

Yue Ye hurriedly reached out to block the dazzling morning light. He blinked his eyes and adapted for a moment before he removed the hidden palm.

Yue Ye immediately looked at Xiaoniao Bufan. Although he was quite dissatisfied with Bufan, a smile appeared on his cheek. Yue Ye coughed lightly, reached out to greet Bufan, and said, "It's early! Bufan."

But the little bird Bufan shook its little head, blinked its eyes, and stared at Yueye. Bufan opened his beak slightly and retorted: "It's getting late, Brother Ye, the sun shines on your butt."

"Hehe...Bufan's words are not wrong at all. The sun shines on his butt. Brother Ye is so embarrassed to say it's too early?

Humph... I just drank so hard last night, but I couldn't stop it. Is this alcoholic, almost forgetting what I do today?"

Mu Sifan was sitting in front of the dressing table, tidying up her hair, and her tone was quite complaining.

Yue Ye turned his head and looked at Mu Sifan, scratched his head with some embarrassment. The round beads swelled up, then left the topic and said, "Uh... it's really late at this time.

Sifan, let’s quickly sort it out, and immediately go to the imperial capital palace, present Brother Meng’s letter of introduction, and meet the king with the sword of the former General of the Protective Country, right?”

Mu Sifan gave Yue Ye a blank look, hesitated for a moment, then nodded slowly and said, "Well, I'm almost done, you should go and wash it up as well! Could it be that I'm so unkempt to see the king?"

Yue Ye rubbed his hands on his face, made a face at Mu Sifan, and nodded immediately, saying, "Okay, today we must meet the monarch in the best condition."

After Yue Ye said this, he took the basin, poured some clean water, and prepared to get up in the morning to wash up.

...

The imperial capital of the Cyan Kingdom, Langcheng.

The crisscrossing streets are like chess board lines, planned in an orderly manner by the imperial capital.

Qingluan Main Street, which leads to the imperial capital palace, is the most prosperous place in the entire capital. In addition to being temporarily requisitioned during extraordinary times, Qingluan Main Street is bustling and lively on weekdays.

The road surface of Qingluan Main Street is very spacious, with various well-decorated shops standing on both sides of the main street.

The entire Cyan Kingdom, whether in the north or east, or in the southern border or the western region, from the south to the north, all kinds of commodities and goods can be said to be full of all the goods in Qingluan Main Street.

In the middle of Qingluan Main Street, the government has planned many small stalls of similar size, three feet wide and six feet long along the street. The government has marked the stall numbers in the grids of these small stalls with dyes.

On weekdays, small vendors only need to pay a fixed rent to the government's special urban construction agency, and the government can allocate corresponding stall numbers based on the types of items sold by small vendors.

The small vendors paid the rent and got the stall number plate issued by the government to them. They could set up stalls at the stall corresponding to the stall number plate within the time period specified by the imperial capital, place the items registered when paying the rent, and start setting up stalls to sell their goods.

On both sides of the stalls in the middle of Qingluan Main Street are streets for pedestrians, cars and horses to pass through.

Of course, for safety reasons, the government used bamboo to make fences to separate the sidewalks, and all the cars and people walked on the roads.

On both sides of the middle stall, two meters of sidewalks are left for tourists to visit.

The distance from the middle stall to the shops on both sides is about thirty feet wide. The span of the entire Qingluan Main Street is at least more than sixty feet, and the ground is covered with small green bricks, which shows how spectacular the Qingluan Main Street is.

During the day, cars come and go, and in order to attract the attention of pedestrians, small vendors would shout at the endless crowd from time to time.

...

Follow Qingluan Main Street and head north, the bustling pedestrians, cars and horses will gradually divert to other streets.

Go north to Qingluan Main Street, and when you reach the end, you can see the red walls and yellow tiles of the imperial capital palace.

About one mile away from the gate of the Imperial Capital Palace, there is a gate called "Xuanwu". This "Xuanwu" is located at the north end of Qingluan Main Street.

Xuanwu Gate is guarded by the imperial guards day and night, so ordinary people are not allowed to step into the Xuanwu Gate.

The Qingluan Main Street outside Xuanwu Gate is bustling and bustling. However, the Xuanwu Gate seems particularly deserted. Apart from the patrol team of the Imperial Guards, there are few people who come and go.

...

Yue Ye and Mu Sifan were walking on the avenue on Qingluan Main Street. Along the way, Mu Sifan was attracted by the shouts along the street and ran around. Yue Ye had to sigh and shake his head, and followed Mu Sifan tightly, for fear of losing her.

Mu Sifan suddenly ran to the stall selling puppets and got the puppets with different expressions, and was extremely happy.

However, just as Mu Sifan was holding the puppet and about to call Yue Ye to take out her wallet, she suddenly caught a jewelry stall next to her.

So Mu Sifan put down the puppet in her hand with unfulfilled wish. She immediately ran to the stall selling jewelry, and looked at the hairpin and the bracelet.

Yue Ye frowned and followed Mu Sifan tightly, for fear that he would be separated from Mu Sifan in this crowded place if he was not careful.

At this moment, Mu Sifan actually ran to a stall of a candy seller. She stared at the craftsman in front of her and made a butterfly pattern with a small candy man. Mu Sifan was stunned.

Yueye saw Mu Sifan looking at the candy man in the craftsman's hand, and his eyes were straightened. He immediately smiled bitterly and asked the craftsman: "Boss, how much does this candy man cost?"

Mu Sifan turned his head and glanced at Yueye. Seeing that Yueye was about to buy a candy person for her, she was delighted in her heart. She pulled Yueye's arm, shook it gently, and laughed: "I know that Brother Ye is the person who loves Sifan the most in the world."

The craftsman who was a sugar man raised his head when he heard this. When he saw that a business came to his house, he hurriedly put down his work and said with a smile on his face: "It's not expensive, it's not expensive, it's delicious and beautiful. It only costs five cents per person."

"What? Five cents a dollar?" Yue Ye opened his mouth wide, hesitated for a while, but stopped talking.

"Brother Ye..." Mu Sifan pouted and deliberately acted coquettishly towards Yue Ye.

Yue Ye looked back at Mu Sifan, then turned his head and looked at the candy man with a butterfly pattern. He took a deep breath and whispered to the boss of the candy man who sold the candy man: "Boss, you can be cheaper, you can be cheaper, I'll buy one."

The boss of the candy seller opened his eyes wide and looked at Yue Ye from top to bottom. There was a hint of contempt in his eyes, and the smile on his face suddenly stopped.

After hesitating for a while, the boss of the sugar seller suddenly said in a plain tone: "The ingredients for my sugar seller are not cheap. Besides, I sell technical work. It is already very discounted for five cents per person, so I can't be cheaper."

Yueye looked at the boss of the candy seller and saw that he was stubborn, and couldn't help but retort: ​​"Five cents. I can buy three buns for five cents. Three buns can at least fill my stomach. Uh... Can you, a candy person, fill my stomach?"

"Uh... can this... be compared? It's really a mess." The boss of the sugar seller was stunned for a while, and didn't know how to refute Yue Ye, and immediately blurted out: "I, the sugar seller, are technical jobs. The sugar made can be viewed and tasted."

Yue Ye shook his head and said, "As you said, aren't people who make buns technically? Hehe... Some people make buns that are both fragrant and delicious.

But the buns made by most people are both ugly and unpalatable.

Hehe...you can be a sugar man, but can you make good buns?"

"You..." The boss of the candy seller was speechless. He was so angry that his face turned red by Yue Ye's words. He pointed at Yue Ye and said the word "you", and he didn't know how to refute it.

Seeing this, Yueye immediately struck the railway while it was hot: "Buns can fill your stomach, you can buy three for five cents, and it is also a meat filling. You can't fill your stomach, you can only buy one for five cents."

Yue Ye said this, and suddenly pointed to the stall selling buns nearby and continued: "Look at how prosperous the business is when people buy buns. Just after buying one, they steamed it in another.

Tsk, tsk... Look at the one you buy candy, but you haven't sold a single candy for a long time. Do you know why this is?"

The boss of the candy seller was now looking as if he was blushing. After hearing Yue Ye's words, he immediately gasped for a few breaths. He trembled all over and continued to point at Yue Ye with his fingers, and suddenly shouted: "You... do you like to buy it?"

Yue Ye sighed intentionally, whistled, and said, "Boss, as the saying goes, customers are God, you must be sincere in your attitude towards customers and have love. Uh... Only in this way can business come to you."

"Get out, you'll get out of here..." The boss of the candy seller finally couldn't help but feel angry, and shouted at Yue Ye: "Buy a candy seller and talk a lot, who is the one who?"

Yueye was dressed up and didn't hear anything, but she was still shameless, staring in front of the candy seller's stall, and she didn't hear what the candy seller's boss said.
