I have attribute points in Three Kingdoms

Chapter 26 Luoyang
Early the next morning.

Chen Lei and his party finally rushed outside the city gate.

The towering city gate seems to be higher than the sky, and it is difficult for ordinary people to see the height of the city wall with the naked eye.

"This is your first time in Luoyang, isn't it?"

"Where's Lu Yin?" The soldiers guarding the city gate stopped them and said coldly.

Chen Lei took out his proof of filial piety.

The guard took it and took a look, then stared at Chen Lei's face, showing a disgusted expression, "Okay, let's go in."

Chen Lei nodded and walked in with big strides.

Luoyang City is worthy of being the seat of the country, the roads are full of traffic and people's voices, there are acrobatic performances by the side of the road that Guangling usually doesn't see a few times a year, and there are a few foreign people wandering with horses.

Little Six said in an unhappy tone, "Are all the gatekeepers in Luoyang so good?"

Chen Lei nodded, "This city wall is not something ordinary people can defend."

No strength, no background, no one dares to guard the gate in Luoyang, you must know that Luoyang is the center of the world, there is no second city in the world more prosperous than Luoyang.

Usually with one eye open and one eye closed, the drizzle flowing from the cracks between the fingertips is enough for ordinary families to eat for a long time.

"But why does he show such hostility to us?" Little Six was even more upset.

"Don't ask so many questions. Isn't it normal for people to be hostile because they see you unhappy?" He Yu interrupted Xiao Liuzi in time.

Both he and Chen Lei knew that the soldier hated them because he thought they were bought by Xiaolian.

But it's not much different from the one I bought, but Chen Lei's character is absolutely passable.

"Okay, okay, Xiao Jing, little six, go find an inn to put our luggage down, and find a suitable house tomorrow."

"Uncle He and I will go to Shangshutai to report first." Chen Lei didn't dwell too much on this matter, it was just a small episode. "We will meet at Sande Restaurant later."

"Okay, Master Chen." The three should agree.

After asking many hurried passers-by on the road, Chen Lei and He Yu finally came to the Shangshutai.

Chen Lei walked up to the porter and explained to the porter the purpose of his visit.

The concierge asked them to wait, and sent someone to find the person in charge of the matter.

Not long after, a man in official uniform came steadily.

"Xuzhou Guangling Xiaolian, Chen Lei and Chen Qingyuan?" The person in official uniform confirmed.

"This is Chen Lei, I don't know your name."

"My official is Shangshu Zuocheng Xu Leshan, you come with me."

Chen Lei followed Xu Leshan and came to a clean courtyard. There were already many people in the courtyard. If there was no accident, they were all filial and honest people.

"From now on, you need to come here for at least two hours a day. There are two days in each month to rest and take a bath. You can report to me in advance. The shooting will be after August. (Han Dynasty Examination)" Xu Leshan finished these Let's go, after all, he is also very busy.

Chen Lei thanked him and walked into the courtyard.

Seeing the newcomer coming in, many people smiled at him, some were chatting, some were writing furiously, and some looked at him with disdain.

Those who smiled at him were basically around his age, and the people who chatted were dressed in luxurious clothes. . .

Chen Lei didn't say hello to them, but just found an empty place and sat down.

He Yu was taken to another yard next to him just now.

That courtyard was specially set up for Xiaolian's entourage to rest while waiting.

Chen Lei's first day at Shangshutai passed quickly, he did nothing but sat there simply observing the people in the courtyard.

See who is more interesting and get to know him, otherwise it would be too boring to stay here alone for the rest of the day.

Chen Lei first ruled out the disdainful people. Anyway, there are so many people here, and they are not bad for people with low status.

Then he ruled out those who were struggling to write. The friends he wants to make now are purely looking for someone to pass the time. They work so hard, how dare they waste other people's time.

So he naturally fixed his eyes on a few people in luxurious clothes.

Chen Lei smiled and made up his mind.

Bring those things over tomorrow, Chen Lei thought to himself.

Using those things to make friends with these idle rich and noble children is simply invincible!

Chen Lei went to another courtyard and called He Yu to go back together.

Many of the remaining people who stayed after two hours were eager for the chief officer to come down to inspect, so they looked familiar.

Chen Lei knew that the national tusk of the Han Dynasty was not long, so he had no intention of flattering the superior officials. He would bring some so-called ancient items as gifts, get an official position in Guangling, and just wait quietly until Dong Zhuo came to Beijing.

As Chen Lei walked and watched, the prosperity of Luoyang was unimaginable to those who have never seen it.

Walking on the street is like visiting a temple fair in a previous life. Although it is not crowded, there are many novelty items.

Chen Lei and He Yu walked slowly to the leading restaurant in Luoyang - Sande Restaurant.

The boy from the restaurant greeted him, "Guest officer, two?"

"There are two more, a man and a woman, they should have been waiting for us here." He Yu stepped forward and replied.

"Is the man still relatively young?" the servant asked.

There was indeed a man and a woman who came over before, and one of the boys was relatively young, looking only twelve or thirteen years old.

"Yes." He Yu affirmed.

"Okay, guest officer, come with me, the two of you are already waiting in the private room on the second floor." The servant shouted loudly, "The Witness Pavilion is full, serve ~ dishes ~ slightly~"

The servant respectfully took him to the "Genius Pavilion", and there was an elegant poem on the wall, and the decoration was as close as possible to the style that scholars like. It can only be said that Sande Restaurant has lost a lot of thought to achieve this level. of.

The moment the Talent Pavilion was opened, there were still two people bickering inside, it was Xiao Liuzi and Xia Jing.

Seeing Chen Lei outside, the two of them immediately stopped their bickering, looking like brothers and sisters respectfully, Little Six got up and let the aisle out, let Chen Lei take the main seat above.

When Chen Lei sat down, Little Six said, "Master Chen, I have found a quiet inn for the time being, and I have already contacted some residents in Luoyang to pay attention to the house."

The full name of the sixth son is Lu Shi. He is the sixth among the seven brothers in the family. He is usually impeccable and quick-witted, so when he was dissatisfied with Thirteen, he was taken to Luoyang by Chen Lei to handle these chores.

Chen Lei nodded, "I know you know little six, as long as you don't waste money."

If they bought a house of several hundred square meters, it would be too wasteful for the four of them to live in it, and Luoyang houses are expensive, so it is right to save a little bit.

Not long after, the servant who served the dishes brought up the dishes one by one. The dishes looked quite rich, because Xiao Liuzi often came out with him and knew what dishes he liked, so Xiao Liuzi ordered them every time. vegetable.

Chen Lei took the first bite of fish and held it in his mouth.

It is already very good in terms of knife skills and plate presentation alone, and can be called a master chef.

It's a pity that Chen Lei doesn't care about these appearances when he eats, just like spicy noodles.

The fish meat is delicate and delicious, and the taste of the ingredients is good, but that's all. The flaws of the fish meat are not covered up too perfectly. Chen Lei swallowed the fish meat and sighed slightly. He thought that the chef in Luoyang Can bring him a surprise.

But the taste is similar to that of the chefs of Guangling Restaurant, at most, the knife skills are a little more amazing.

Chen Lei turned his mind away, looked out the window, watched the pedestrians coming and going outside the window, and listened to the loud conversations of other people.

At this time, there was a voice that was particularly piercing in his ears, "Brother Lu, is today still the same as usual?"
