Chapter 596 Target

"It's still done." Old Ma smiled openly, and a simple and honesty came to his face. He didn't dare to say anything else, but when it comes to knowing the way... He has lived in the capital since he was a child, and he has been in the capital for several generations. If he said he was not familiar with himself, no one here would dare to say that he was familiar with the capital. This is the first time he has been to the old man. It's not right, it's the young master who has to perform well!

"I don't know where the young master wants to go. Don't worry, no matter where he goes, the old man can send the young master there as fast as possible!" No matter how honest a person is, he will say good things and flatter. No, this is not a flattery. What the old master said is really his ability to do it, even if he closes his eyes, he can do it well.

"Stories around, Lao Matou, which is the most lively city and which is the most worth visiting?" Anyway, Feng Honglin has no goals, so it's better to listen to other people's opinions and make a decision.

"I wonder if the young master has heard a saying: Dongcheng is noble, Xicheng is rich, Nancheng is beggar, Beicheng is shop?" Lao Matou asked.

"I heard Cheng Rui say it, but that time I only talked about this East City, but I didn't say it in detail in the other four urban areas." Feng Honglin said.

"This rumor is about the four urban areas of our imperial city, and this Dongcheng, which is the area where you live now, you have a little understanding of it, so I won't talk about it in detail. Let's focus on these other four urban areas?" Old Matou looked at Feng Honglin inquiringly.

"Okay, tell me!" Feng Honglin nodded.

"This Dongcheng is expensive, which means that most of the people here are noble people. In contrast, this Xicheng is rich, which means that most of the people living there are rich people, and most of these people are rich merchants. Merchants like to talk about face and enjoyment the most, so the houses in Xicheng are extremely luxurious, which is even more than our Dongcheng District. Of course, this luxury is luxurious, but it seems too ostentatious and luxurious, and it lacks the nobleness and weight of the Dongcheng District."

"Of course, Xicheng District has its advantages. Because most of the people living in Xicheng District are extremely rich, the things sold in Xicheng District are very particular. All the capital is the best. Even if the noble families in Dongcheng District have time, they will fall in love with Xicheng District and go shopping and things. After all, the most expensive restaurants and inns in the entire capital are there, and the most expensive jewelry shop is there, and the most expensive snack shop is there too... The most expensive snacks in that shop are all worth ten taels of silver."

Speaking of this, Lao Chengtou couldn't help but stutter. Ten taels of silver are several generations more expensive than his and his grandson's silver sold back then. I really don't understand why there are still people eating such expensive snacks! In fact, not only are there people eating such expensive snacks, but they are also limited in quantity every day, which is completely in short supply! Lao Chengtou can't figure it out, can't that snack be made of dragon liver and phoenix gallbladder?!

I don’t know if this is made by the Dragon Liver and Phoenix Gallbladder. This is not the point. The point is: “If the young master wants to go to Xicheng District, I’m afraid he has to bring more silver notes.”

"I understand." Feng Honglin nodded. To put it bluntly, Xicheng District is just a sentence, full of local tyrants, plus the luxury goods distribution center. In particular, Feng Honglin noticed that the old horseman said that he brought not silver, but silver notes, which was very telling.

The situation in Xicheng District is just like Feng Honglin’s previous visit to those luxury goods stores in the Romantic City. Of course, if you plan to just go shopping and not buy knowledge, then nothing will have to do. Just go in and sneak in.

However, if you are planning to go in and buy something for yourself, then checks, bank cards, credit cards, and mobile phones (used to notify banks to transfer large amounts of money) please take it with you! As for cash, you should save money, unless you want to pretend to be a pussy (of course, this is what you think. In the eyes of others, you will only do this stupid/pillow). Otherwise, you have to be accompanied by a few big suitcases that are specially used to carry money for you. This street, you don’t want to feel comfortable shopping!

Similarly, the news in Xicheng District should be extremely high. In this way, unless you like something, you ask the waiter to follow your people to return to the house to get money. Otherwise, if you buy some valuable items, it would be too troublesome to pay the bill in cash. This silver is heavier than our modern banknotes and more difficult to carry.

I took a look at the price that Lao Matou just reported - the price of the most expensive dim sum shop in Xicheng District's best dim sum shop. Think about the silver money I asked Youjiang to withdraw from the kuo before... Well, it seems that the preparation is a little insufficient today and cannot support him to buy and buy. But after a little shopping, it is still affordable to spend a little.

It’s rare to have a trip in ancient times. I can’t afford to pay. Isn’t it a waste of not seeing this ancient version of luxury goods and luxury enjoyment?

However, there is no hurry. I have arrived in Xicheng District. There are two more urban areas, and Lao Matou hasn't said it yet.

"Old Matou, there is also the South City and the North City? Let's talk about it together." Feng Honglin said. After he finished talking about it together, he could set the first and second goals.

"Yes, if you want to go to Master, there is nothing to see in Nancheng. There are mostly poor people there, which is very dirty and messy. I am afraid that a noble man like you, you, will not be able to bear it."

No matter which country, city, or place, there are rich and poor people, why are they called beggars in Nancheng? Isn’t it because there are no other places in Nancheng, but there are many poor people! Bankrupt, hardworking, and even begging for a living, basically gather in the territory of Nancheng, so it is not an exaggeration to say that there is a slum in the entire imperial capital.

When Lao Matou's family was not selling themselves to the mansion, they lived in Nancheng. So, in fact, the four cities in the southeast, west and northeast of the capital, this Nancheng is the most familiar place for Lao Matou. It is precisely because of his familiarity that he did not recommend that his young master go there. It is really too eye-catching to dress up with his young master...

"Okay, let alone the Nancheng District, but also the Beicheng District? Is there a lot of shops in Beicheng? " Feng Honglin was curious. He said that he had two shops in Beicheng District. The Feng family sold the glass ornaments he had brought before and got money. Old Mrs. Feng bought them for him. But she has been busy these days, and Feng Honglin hasn't taken time to check out the shop, so Feng Honglin doesn't know what the shop looks like.

"This is what the young master said. Most of the people in Beicheng do business." Old Ma nodded and said.
