Chapter 211 Jiezi Town (2)
The group hurried along, but Yang Jiu, as light as a swallow, took the lead and set off on his return journey, heading straight for the capital city, just to pass on the important news as soon as possible. The rest of the group followed closely behind him and entered the Yang family's large warehouse.
The warehouse here is more than twice as big as the one in Yucheng and is very spacious.
Upon entering, Shopkeeper Du came forward, beaming with joy as he led everyone inside. He expertly arranged comfortable rooms for everyone, then methodically instructed his staff to prepare steaming, fragrant meals. While the food wasn't particularly delicious, it was nonetheless piping hot and filling. As everyone devoured it, they felt a warm glow throughout their bodies, as if the fatigue accumulated from the journey had instantly dissipated.
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Team Leader Yang clapped his hands and motioned for Shopkeeper Du to come over. The two exchanged a few words in low voices, and Shopkeeper Du had Team Leader Yang carried into the room. Team Leader Yang wanted to ask a few questions.
Meanwhile, after finishing breakfast, the Zhu family decided to go for a stroll as it was still early. This was a rare experience for them, as they had never been to this ancient town before.
Along the way, everyone was filled with curiosity and anticipation, secretly wondering what this ancient town would look like. Would it be exactly like the one they had imagined? Or would it have a different style and characteristics?
Zhu Yingying strolled along the ancient streets, feeling the cool breeze of the cobblestones beneath her feet, her gaze drawn to the quaint buildings around her. She couldn't help but sigh, "How lucky we are! To be able to walk on such a land steeped in history, it feels like stepping back into the past."
Yu Bo, who was standing by, heard Zhu Yingying's sigh and responded with a smile: "Haha, it seems that my sister Yingying is in a poetic mood today!" There was a hint of sarcasm in his words, but more of it was his appreciation for Zhu Yingying's delicate emotions.
Zhu Yingying: "I just expressed my feelings."
The Zhu family walked around and just watched the fun without buying anything. Even so, everyone returned to their rooms contentedly, ready to have a good rest.
Zhu Yingying was extremely excited, blinking her bright eyes as she said, "We'll be arriving at the city tomorrow! I wonder what the city looks like now? I'm really looking forward to it!"
Father Zhu beside him smiled and nodded, responding, "This capital city is now called Jincheng! It should be our old Chengdu."
Zhu Qingqing frowned slightly and said, "From a geographical point of view, it is indeed the same, but I really don't know what it looks like now." There was a hint of curiosity and worry in her eyes.
Wu Di, standing nearby, seemed incredibly excited, waving his arms and shouting, "Who cares what it looks like now? We've arrived in ancient times! My heart is pounding when I think about how I'll be able to showcase my talents and accomplish something earth-shattering in this unfamiliar era. I'm so excited I can't control myself!"
At this moment, Mother Zhu glared at Wu Di and scolded him, "You little brat, why are you getting so excited? Just stay still and don't go around causing trouble."
Wu Di quickly patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry, Grandma! I will only do my best to help you and will never cause any trouble or bring any trouble to you!"
Mother Zhu: "It's good that you know. This is a strange world after all, so it's better to be safe than sorry. And you all, you all need to be honest and low-key, understand?"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Zhu Qingqing turned her head to look at Wu Di and asked softly, "Didi, are you going back tonight?"
Wu Di shook his head without hesitation and replied, "No! I'll go back and tell Brother Jinyuan and the others tomorrow after we arrive in the capital. I've almost finished all the preparations I need to make, and Brother Jinyuan is also eager to try and can't wait to get started!"
In fact, Zhu Qingqing had long known that Zhu Yingying and her friends were planning to open a shop to do business. She did not object to this, but repeatedly reminded them to strictly control the process and not to bring anything that was too unconventional or unreliable into the store.
Mother Zhu: "Yes, let's go back after we get settled in the capital and have a good talk with your godmother and Shifeng Jinyuan. Let's all go to bed early tonight, as we probably have to leave early tomorrow morning."
Everyone agreed and took a rest.
