Douluo: A Century-old Legend I Am the Second Uncle Chenxin
Chapter 1041 Gao Laozhuang
There was a wide road between each block, which was more than 100 meters wide and could accommodate dozens of horses running side by side.
The road surface, paved with loess, is solid and heavy. On both sides of the street are thick walls, outside which are planted a large number of elm and locust trees.
Counting the streets of Chang'an, there are a total of twenty-five main roads crisscrossing each other, including fourteen running east-west and eleven running north-south.
These streets, like the blood vessels of the city, cleverly divide Chang'an into 108 districts and the bustling east and west markets.
From a macro perspective, Chang'an can be divided into four major regions: Northeast, Northwest, Southeast, and Southwest.
The East and West cities are like the prosperous hearts of the southeast and southwest regions.
Dongshi is a paradise for luxury goods. Every commodity is sparkling and reflects the taste and pursuit of the upper class.
The transactions here are not just the exchange of materials, but more of the interweaving of power and relationships.
The Spirit Hall, the Great Fighting Spirit Arena, the Xuan Ye Pavilion, and the giant Plant Guild organizations are all located here.
Neutral organizations such as Jubao Pavilion, Rose Hotel, Qushui Liushang, and Food Hall, as well as some large chambers of commerce, are also located in the East Market.
The West Market is a different scene.
The wide variety of goods, from daily necessities to rare and exotic objects, is why it is praised as the "Gold Market".
The commercial activities in the West Market were more active and suitable for large-scale transactions, becoming an important economic center of Chang'an City and even the entire Fasno.
The Chen family’s medicinal materials market is a shining pearl in the West Market.
It is also a place where gangs, underground black markets and other groups gather together.
However, three years ago, the Chen family and the government jointly cleaned it up, and the public security has improved a lot, and it has been completely renewed.
The northwest corner of Chang'an is the intersection of politics and culture.
The City Lord's Mansion and government offices are majestically located here. Because to the west of Chang'an City is the Chang'an Fortress, and to the north is the Chang'an Academy, a defensive corner, the City Lord's Mansion is here and can respond quickly.
The picturesque Chang'an Furong Garden adds a touch of elegance and tranquility to this area.
As for the Northeast region, it is famous for its nobility and is a gathering place for celebrities.
The ten great families chose to settle here, and the Gao family was one of them.
Therefore, the Gao family mansion is not far from the Duke Chen’s mansion.
The carriage drove slowly and arrived in about twenty minutes. Of course, in this prosperous city of Chang'an, the speed could not be too fast and could only move slowly.
Chen Xiaojun sat on the soft cushion of the carriage, describing the layout of Chang'an City to Xiaoyi eloquently. Every street corner and every building seemed to be the pages of a storybook in his hand, telling the story.
Xiaoyi sat by the window, listening quietly, and from time to time gently lifted the curtain and looked outside.
Horse-drawn carriages shuttled through the streets and alleys of Chang'an City, and the wheels rolled over the bluestone pavement inside the alleys, making rumbling sounds.
Soon, Zhu Changyun's steady voice came from outside the car: "Master, the Gao family has arrived."
Zhu Changyun, Zhu Wuneng's uncle and Zhu Hefeng's youngest son, used to be under Chen Chen's command and has followed him over the past few years.
Although he is almost 40 years old, he is already a Soul Emperor.
The carriage slowly approached, and the head of the Gao family, Gao Cuilan's father, Gao Yunpeng, was already waiting in front of the door with everyone.
…………
The Gao family mansion is elegant in style, with dark stone exterior walls carved with dragons and phoenixes, highlighting its nobility.
There is a gold-rimmed plaque hanging on the door, with the three characters "Gaolaozhuang" written in vigorous and powerful strokes.
This name is special!
The palace is paved with marble, the courtyards and corridors are well-arranged, and precious flowers and trees are fragrant all year round.
The furnishings in the hall of Gao's mansion are antique and reveal a sense of calmness and solemnity.
The mahogany furniture is exquisite, and the walls are filled with the fragrance of famous calligraphy and paintings.
At this time, Chen Xiaojun was wearing a gorgeous robe and a white cloak. He was very elegant and was a rare talent among men.
Xiaoyi beside him still maintained her cool outfit, with her veil fluttering slightly, adding a touch of hazy beauty to her.
Chen Xiaojun and his companions bowed to Gao Ying, the old patriarch of the Gao family, and Gao Yunpeng opposite them. At the same time, they nodded to Gao Cuilan and Gao Duan below Gao Yunpeng, as well as Gao Yunhe behind them.
Following Chen Xiaojun and Xiaoyi were Zhu Wuneng, Su Ningxia and Cheng Yun, all of whom were very impressive.
Chen Xiaojun smiled and said, "Mr. Ying, Uncle Yunpeng, Uncle Yunhe, I am sorry for disturbing you by coming to visit me today."
Gao Ying stroked his long beard, smiling: "It is a great honor for the Gao family that Xiao Jun came to visit in person."
He treated Chen Xiaojun as his nephew in the future, and felt very pleased with himself.
For this meeting, Gao Ying came all the way from the real Gao Village in the south of the city.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
After all, this was the first time in three years that Chen Xiaojun had visited a noble family with formal etiquette, which showed how much importance he attached to the visit.
The Gao family ranks in the middle among the top ten families in Chang'an. Although it is only a second-rate force, it has a good foundation and should not be underestimated.
Of course, it is not a second-rate force, but it is not worthy of the name of an aristocratic family.
In the world of soul masters, to become a second-rate force, one must possess the strength of one Soul Douluo and three Soul Saints.
The Shen family and the Ji family are the top second-rate forces; as for the He family, which is the first of the top ten families, it has three Soul Douluos and is considered a first-rate force.
In fact, the Shen family has the title of Shen Tianjun, who can be considered a first-rate force, but almost no one knows it openly.
Gao Yunpeng was also very happy: "My dear nephew, your visit to my humble home really brings honor to our family."
Chen Xiaojun responded modestly: "Mr. Ying, Uncle Yunpeng, you are too polite."
After he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and Zhu Wuneng and Su Ningxia came forward.
There was a flash of light in the hands of the two men, and each of them held out a precious item.
What Zhu Wuneng was holding in his hand was a large bowl of water, with a bright white lotus inside.
The lotus looked like it was carved from white porcelain, and was as crystal clear as white jade, emitting a faint intoxicating fragrance.
Gao Ying stood up upon seeing this, panting slightly: "Could this be the White Jade Lotus?"
Chen Xiaojun smiled and nodded: "Mr. Ying has a keen eye for identifying a pearl, it is the White Jade Lotus."
Gao Ying said with emotion: "The White Jade Lotus is truly a rare treasure."
Chen Xiaojun waved his hand gently, smiling: "Mr. Ying, you are too kind. This is just a small token of my appreciation. I hope you won't despise it."
Gao Ying is a flower lover, and she particularly loves lotus flowers. She has a special liking for such rare things.
This white jade lotus is not only of great ornamental value, but also a seventh-grade elixir. It can be used as medicine to treat diseases, and can also be placed indoors for a long time to refresh the mind and increase mental strength.
A hint of surprise flashed in Gao Ying's eyes. He looked at the white jade lotus carefully, intoxicated by its fresh fragrance.
At this time, Su Ningxia walked forward lightly, her slender hands carefully holding an exquisitely carved wooden box, in which lay quietly a vibrant spiritual herb.
The leaves of the magical herb are full and thick, sparkling with the green of life like emeralds, quietly emitting a fresh and elegant aura that seems to be able to cleanse people's souls.
