In the evening, the troops camped outside Yangdi City.

Yangdi, originally named Yuzhou (now Yuzhou City, Henan Province). Yuzhou was called "Dayu's State" because Dayu was first granted here.

Later, the capital was founded and established by the Xia Dynasty, which was also called "Xia Capital" or "the first capital of China." Yu was in power for eight years in Xia Capital and ordered the country to implement a unified calendar, commonly known as "Xia Calendar" and also called "Lunar calendar".

The name of Yangdi originated from the 16th year of King Xiang of Zhou (636 BC). The Di people in the north (also known as Di people) entered Lidi. Because its land was in the Yang of Songshan, Zhongyue, it was renamed Yangdi (pronounced Di).

Sun Ce brought the generals into this long-standing city. Anyway, there was nothing to do, so he just took a trip.

I think that in the future, just to take a look at the ancient city walls, there are too many people in the world who travel thousands of miles and go thousands of miles, and they can find various ways to approach them at all costs. They just want to touch their thickness with their own hands, because every brick and every layer of rammed earth carries the rings of history.

But the city walls in front of me were full of sight. This was a real ancient city, a real city wall. Although it was no longer strange, Sun Ce still looked carefully and looked at it again and again. The generals also thought that his lord was a little abnormal, so they just came up to pull him away.

If they were not wearing armor from Yangzhou generals, a group of guarding county soldiers at the city gate would have thought they were spies to arrest and question them. Even so, the soldiers' eyes were already a little wrong. If they continued to look, I was afraid that the commander-in-chief would bring people up and check whether their waist cards were fake.

Walking in this authentic ancient city, Sun Ce was still looking around and looking around, as if he was looking for something.

Although Yangdi City is old, it is just a small town after all. It is placed in a modern city, just a little bit the size of a palm. Even a small town is bigger than it.

Since the capital of Yuzhou was established in Ancheng, Yangdi has not developed much. The three-mile-square city wall has never been expanded. Coupled with the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and a year ago, Dong Zhuo sent Li Jue and others to Kanto to capture all parts of the country, and went to Yingchuan and Chenliu. The population in the city has decreased by at least half.

The original population of 30,000 in this city has dropped sharply to less than 10,000 today, which makes this small city look particularly depressed. Just looking at the shops on the roadside, they are lazy and lose their energy because of their light business!

～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～

Three months ago, in Yangdi City, there was a newly opened tavern on the roadside on a small street in the north of the city. The four words "Yangzhou Tavern" are written on the guise of the floating door outside the tavern. It is clear that this is a tavern that runs Yangzhou cuisine.

Because there are not many peers around, the business is pretty good. At present, there are more than ten guest tables in the tavern, and guests are also sitting on the tables.

The shopkeeper of the restaurant looked blessed, white and fat, smiling, and was busy greeting guests. But when he saw that the runners were running slower, he would immediately throw a fierce eye knife over.

Several young and strong runners seemed to be shocked by electric shock, and their whole body shook. They called the vegetable and ran harder when they served. The shopkeeper's face would return to a harmonious look, but it seemed that he was very intimidating to the guys.

The guests at about ten tables were all ordinary residents, and they looked nothing special.

There was only a unique young man sitting on the table next to the window. If an ordinary young man was in the wind, he could only say that he was in the wind. Moreover, judging from his dress, ordinary taverns could not welcome people of such status.

The body is too thin and makes people feel obviously malnourished and their face is slightly blue and white.

But his clothes were quite good. He was wearing a slightly larger, plain white slanted robe, and the materials were very luxurious. He was tied with neat leather crowns on his head. He was thin and handsome, and had clear and deep eyes.

The shopkeeper has been doing business for many years and is a discerning person. You can tell at a glance that this young man must be a rich or powerful person, and ordinary people will definitely not be able to wear such clothes.

So although he walked into the tavern since the beginning of the afternoon and sat there, drinking pot after pot, he didn't use many dishes to order.

This made the boss feel a little regretful: "This young man has a good alcohol tolerance. After more than an hour, he drank nearly ten pots of jade grain spring. (The so-called jade grain spring is actually a low-grade turbid wine brewed from millet.)

If he had eaten more dishes, wouldn't I have made a small offer today! Such a "big customer" is rarely encountered, and ordinary people can only end up with one pot of wine! No one can bear to drink this hard. There are still many generous people in these literati who have read a lot of books!"

When Guo Jia was 21 years old in history, he joined Yuan Shao under the instigation of his friends Tian Feng and others. Yuan Shao had just entered Jizhou at that time and was called the "hero of the world". He respected Guo Jia and others very much and treated him with kindness.

But after dozens of days, Guo Jia realized that Yuan Shao did not understand the way of employed people and was not a person who accomplished great things. So Guo Jia resolutely left Yuan Shao. Guo Jia left Yuan Shao at the time of his glory. This not only requires great courage, but also extraordinary vision.

After that, Guo Jia remained unemployed for six years. It was not until 196, the first year of Emperor Xian’s Jian’an that he was recommended to Cao Cao by Xun Yu.

Guo Jia, who has no income at the moment, is a scholar from a poor family. However, he is confident and noble, likes to be free and picky, and only interacts with the kind and ambition in his mind.

But once he becomes his friend, he will treat him very sincerely and enthusiastically. He often likes to drink and chat with his friends all night long.

Because he loves drinking, he has used all the money he has obtained from Yuan Shao recently. Apart from the new clothes that Yuan Shao bought when he first joined Yuan Shao, he has nothing valuable on him.

Since a few days ago, he mortgaged the most valuable jade pendant on him in Zuirenlou, the largest restaurant in the city. The larger restaurants in the city are all very informative. He was directly listed on the unpopular list. Last time he wanted to go to drink, he was told that the store was small and profitable and would not be owed credit.

Please take out the mortgage first before letting him enter the store, which made Guo Jia feel that these hotels are simply too bullying.

Guo Jia looked at the wine glass in his hand and felt the hot eyes of the shopkeeper at the counter.

I thought to myself with some self-deprecating thought: "It's better to be a small hotel like this. At least I won't do anything to bully customers by the store. But it seems that the shopkeeper is waiting for me to bring him a generous income. But now all I have left is this brocade robe and it's worth some money. It's really nothing!

In this chaotic era, even the merchants became extremely greedy. The best jade pendant used to be worth hundreds or thousands of guan, but now it is only worth a meal of wine in his restaurant.

But thinking about it, even Guan Tian’s life is worthless now, and this jade pendant cannot be eaten as a meal, so it would be reasonable to exchange for his wine. It is not unfair, nor unfair. The ones who are unfair are just the millions of people.

Haha! I wonder if the shopkeeper will be disappointed and let the sturdy waiters beat me up and strip me of the clothes used to wear the storefront?

No matter how much he is, I will drink it beautifully before talking about it. I haven’t drunk for many days, and a bird fades out of my mouth!

Although this wine is a bit sour, it can still be eaten. He can't keep holding me and let me go! Besides, this talented man is not not giving money, but just postponing it for a period of time. Scholars are naturally able to speak and believe it."

Guo Jia actually decided to play a rogue and eat a tycoon meal! I wonder if the shopkeeper who was thinking of making a fortune from him would vomit three liters of blood after knowing his true thoughts.

Soon, after drinking for a whole hour, Guo Jia finally felt that his stomach began to swell and he could no longer hide a sip of wine.

He sighed regretfully: "It's a pity that there is no good wine in this world. Why is it so difficult to get drunk?"

I looked up and saw a diligent runner standing by the table.

The runner was very eye-catching. When he saw Guo Jia put down the wine pot, he knew that he was finally having fun. Without the instructions of the shopkeeper, he quickly trotted to Guo Jia and waited to help him check the bill.

The waiter at the hall thought proudly: "That's the point when the eyes are sharp. Maybe this rich man can give me a few big money when he is happy, so he will have a income today. After working in this tavern, he has not received a rich man's reward! Then the shopkeeper is satisfied, and I am also satisfied with such a good thing!"

Guo Jia just looked at the waiter who was looking forward to the expectant look and said, "Waiter! Your wine is too light. Is it all mixed with water? I have drunk so much, so why can't I get drunk?"

The waiter of the pauldo's original face suddenly became a little rigid, and said, "Young Master, what are you talking about? The wine in the small shop is an authentic millet pure wine. The wine is famous far and wide. You can't just talk nonsense, it ruins the name of the small shop!"

The pawn looked at the gesture made by the shopkeeper with a frosty face behind the counter and said, "Please ask the young master to settle the account. There is a total of 220 yuan. The shopkeeper is generous and you will accept the two of you! Please ask!"

As he said that, he reached out to Guo Jia for money.

It seems that the shopkeeper also heard Guo Jia's words and knew the seriousness of the matter. He thought about closing the account quickly, and just threw the fractions and sold them to this guy who didn't know what background was.

But I never thought that business is difficult to do now. Shortly after the opening, someone came to eat the Bawang meal. But he was still a scholar who looked very weak and like a bamboo pole. He even drank ten pots of wine in one breath!

If you can't receive the money, today's business will probably lose money. I thought I would have a big customer, but I thought it would be a big cheater. This is really a cheater!

Guo Jia had no idea that he should pay for food after eating, and said in a deep voice: "Your goods are not good, so should you sell so expensive?"

At this time, several diners happened to walk into the tavern gate and heard Guo Jia looking for trouble. They immediately knew that there was a fun time. The few people couldn't help but look up. Watching the fun has always been a unique tradition of Chinese people, so how could they miss such a good pre-dinner event!

Among them, there is a fat man named Xu Feng, but he is an acquaintance of Guo Jia.

He wanted to make friends with Guo Jia, who was famous for his talent, but he was rejected mercilessly. The fat Xu Feng was always worried about Guo Jia and recognized him at a glance.

Seeing that Guo Jia, who has always been self-proclaimed, was actually in this tavern. After drinking but trying to pay for the debt, he felt that the opportunity to repay the debt was coming.
Chapter completed!
