My pet is thighs
Chapter 69 The first day of travel
The land of Haochen Kingdom is very large, and the cities are not directly adjacent to each other. Instead, they have to pass through the wilderness and mountains. It is basically impossible to travel with just two legs.
However, wherever there is profit, there are merchants. Some far-sighted merchants have established carriage and horse shops to facilitate people's travel.
Depending on the price, the carriage and horse shop has ox-carts and horse-drawn carriages, and the charges for ox-carts and horse-drawn carriages vary depending on the number of people riding.
It is said that there is a special car that is specially prepared for one-on-one travel with noble people, and the price is also very high.
The bullock cart is pulled by a ferocious beast tamed by humans. The feral bull has strong limbs but a very docile personality, and is most suitable for pulling carts over long distances.
The carriage is driven by wildebeest. The wildebeest is not as endurance as the wild ox, but it is much faster and can travel thousands of miles in a day. It is suitable for guests who are in a hurry.
The special car is pulled by many wildebeest horses, and its speed is astonishing. In addition, its carriage is precisely manufactured, so it can be said to be fast and stable.
Chi Tianmin traveled to experience life and see the local customs. Naturally, he could not choose a private car, so he chose to take an ox cart.
Chi Tianmin was considered a celebrity in the imperial capital. In order not to be recognized, he even dressed up a little.
The ox cart was the cheapest way to travel, and the people riding on it were from all walks of life. One ox cart was packed with nearly twenty people.
As soon as Chi Tianmin got into the car, he regretted his choice. The crowded car was full of mixed smells, and Chi Tianmin was so smoked that he almost vomited.
Fortunately, Xiao Qi was beside him, and it gave off a faint green light, which dissipated a lot of the stench.
After living in an abalone shop for a long time without smelling the smell, Chi Tianmin got used to the smell.
Chi Tianmin looked at the scenery outside through the car window. It was far from the imperial capital. It was a flat plain with no scenery to see. After a while, Chi Tianmin got tired of it and turned around to chat with the people around him.
Chi Tianmin's clothes were incompatible with the people around him. His clothes were very valuable at first glance, so others unconsciously stayed away from him.
"Uncle, where are you going?" Chi Tianmin took the initiative to talk to the nearest middle-aged man.
It was a man who looked to be in his forties, with dark skin. He looked like a farmer who often did farm work.
The man chuckled, showing his teeth that were not very white: "We went to Laijing City to work. My brother-in-law took a job, and I went over to help."
Laijing City is the closest city to the Imperial Capital, only more than two hundred miles away. The trade exchanges between it and the Imperial Capital are also the most frequent, and it is called the Little Imperial Capital.
"It seems like a big deal. Uncle is really capable." Chi Tianmin complimented.
"Where, where, make some money. Actually, I didn't want to go there, but I couldn't bear my brother-in-law's begging, so he insisted on me going over to help." The uncle looked reluctant.
"What's the matter? Don't you want to do any money-making work?" Chi Tianmin asked curiously.
The uncle is also a talkative person. He opened up the conversation: "You can also make money in the imperial capital. You can just cultivate a few acres of fertile land and you can make no less than this. If you want to work, you can also go to the medicine field. Now every family is recruiting people. Don’t worry about work.”
Hearing him talk about this, other people in the carriage also responded.
"Yes, our life has become much easier since we had the things invented by Master Min."
"Brother, it's really not worth it for you to go to Laijing City. If you don't cultivate more fertile land now, you won't have anywhere to farm in the future. I heard that the government is considering banning the cultivation of fields at will."
"Yes, brother, the imperial capital is so good now. If you go to Laijing City and get sick, you can't find a doctor. It's not like our imperial capital."
Everyone, you say something, I say something, the middle-aged man said and frowned in confusion.
Seeing this, Chi Tianmin immediately explained: "You can't say that. Don't we in Haochen Kingdom pay attention to personal relationships? Since someone else's brother-in-law invites him like this, he must have his own difficulties. If his relatives are in trouble, we must do our best to help him. .”
Chi Tianmin's words were recognized by everyone, and they all said yes, and the middle-aged uncle also relieved his frustration.
Everyone tacitly agreed not to talk about this topic anymore, and some talkative people started talking about other topics: "Have you heard? Young Master Min is going to travel around the world."
"Have you heard of this? I went to give something to Young Master Min."
"You said that Young Master Min can't practice, so why is he traveling around the world?"
"I don't know, maybe I want to travel around."
"By the way, have you mastered anything new in the past two years?"
"You are so heartless that you can swallow an elephant like a snake. Don't you think that Young Master Ming has brought too little to everyone?"
"That's right, what do you mean by this? You said that those who are officials are not in charge. If you dare to say that you are pitiful, I will not obey you."
"No, no, how dare I say that, Young Master, I just mentioned it casually."
Everyone was talking and laughing along the way, but it wasn't boring at all. Chi Tianmin took out the snacks he brought and shared them with everyone, earning everyone's thanks again.
The sun is getting darker and the sun is about to set, but the oxcart is not far from Laijing City. After climbing over the hill in front, there is a flat river, which can be reached soon.
The oxcart traveled through the mountain forest, and the tall trees blocked the last rays of light, making it appear dim.
At this time, a loud shout rang through the forest: "Robbery, everyone get out of the car."
This place is not far from Laijing City. For experts, this distance can be reached in a moment, so no robbers have ever robbed here. Everyone was shocked.
"Get out of the car quickly. If you don't get off, I'm going to kill someone!" the robber yelled again.
The people in the car were all ordinary people with no cultivation. They had never seen such a battle before, so they got out of the car timidly.
Chi Tianmin followed them and got out of the car. What came into view were three people wearing black clothes and black trousers, with their faces covered.
They held bright steel knives in their hands and showed off their power to everyone, but when seeing the figure of one of them, Chi Tianmin felt familiar.
"Xiao Hu, is that you? Are you here to see me off?" Chi Tianmin realized, wasn't that Hu Lai, who had been bullied by him many times?
Hu Lai was stunned, could he be recognized even if his face was covered?
"Stop talking nonsense, who is Xiao Hu?" Hu Lai ignored him on purpose.
Chi Tianmin looked at him with interest, wondering what tricks he was up to, but he did not expose him anymore, wanting to see what he wanted to do.
The three robbers pretended to plunder, and then said to everyone: "Get out of here, you are a bunch of poor people, you are unlucky, your bodies together are not enough for the brothers to have a drink."
Chi Tianmin was even more confused. Could it be that Xiao Hu's head was damaged by him?
Hearing this, everyone dared not talk too much, and rushed to get on the bullock cart.
Not knowing what kind of medicine was sold in the small gourd, Chi Tianmin ignored it and turned around to get on the bullock cart.
"Hehehehe, that pretty boy, did I let you go? I let those poor people go because they had no money. You looked like a fat sheep at first sight. If I let you run away, wouldn't you and I be fools?" Hu Lai was behind him. Said triumphantly.
This time Chi Tianmin understood that his feelings meant leaving him alone to deal with.
Everyone on the oxcart had a good impression of Chi Tianmin, and they all looked at Chi Tianmin worriedly.
"What are you still looking at? Get out now, or I'll kill you all." Hu Lai cursed again.
At this moment, the driver drove the bullock cart and ran away quickly. Well, this good impression was not enough for everyone to risk their lives for him.
