Chapter 15 Honesty

The evening breeze in spring was slightly cool. When the sunken light left the Kucha Palace, the slightly drunken feeling was hit on his face by the cool breeze that hit him, making him feel extremely comfortable.

Feng Changqing walked beside him. Although he was a little lame when walking, his pace was not slow. The two left the hall and looked at each other speechlessly. Chen Guang didn't know what to say, so he could only move forward silently.

In front of the gate of the palace, when he saw Wang Shenyuan leading the fangs to wait, Chen Guang couldn't help but ask, "Wang Guzheng, have you eaten?"

"Thank you, my husband, for your concern, we have all eaten it."

Seeing that Chen Guang didn't seem to be drunk, Wang Shenyuan hurriedly called his men to come over and then said to Feng Changqing, "I've seen Judge Feng."

In Gao Xianzhi's shogunate, Feng Changqing was in charge of clerical affairs, and occasionally supervised military discipline. Therefore, even an old soldier like Wang Shenyuan was a little afraid of this cold-faced judge.

Seeing that the tooth soldiers who were originally laughing stood up in a state of grace when they saw Feng Changqing, Chen Guang had a new understanding of Feng Changqing. He looked back at the Kucha Palace under the lights. He thought for a while and said, "Brother Feng, is the Protector staying in the palace?"

"The Protector and the Lord of Kucha were about the same age as each other. They met and made friends when they were young and often went to and from the palace."

Feng Changqing replied that he knew the deeds of his lord and had a close relationship with the lord of Kucha, otherwise the Great Jiedushi would not have entrusted all the Anxi military to the lord.

Wang Shenyuan and the fang soldiers looked at Feng Changqing and Shen Guang in surprise, and their eyes turned back and forth. They remembered that the cold-faced judge was not easy to get along with. It was the first time they saw someone calling the judge Feng Brother Feng.

"Chen Lang, this night is cool, you and I might as well walk more and enjoy the alcohol."

"What Brother Feng said is exactly what I want."

Wang Shenyuan saw the two of them walking side by side, leading their subordinates to follow the guards to escort them. Yancheng is not as good as Chang'an, and there is no curfew at night. However, there are many merchants and tourists from Dashifujing and other places in the city, with fish and dragons mixed with everyone. There are many robbers and thieves here, and it will be very dangerous if they are alone at night.

"Chen Lang, how about the fun of Kucha today?"

“It has a unique charm.”

"It seems that Chen Lang is very sure."

"Just do your best."

"It's almost fake if you're too humble."

"Brother Feng misunderstood, but a certain lady often said that she is sure of being a person and doing things, and only takes five points. Only in this way can she do her best and not go on a business trip."

Feng Changqing was stunned when he heard this, then nodded, "My mother must be a strange woman."

"There are two hundred Lenu actors in the Protector's Mansion, and Chen Lang can carefully select the ones that are used together."

Chen Guang nodded and said yes. He found that Feng Changqing was very serious when talking about serious matters, so he could not even move the topic away.

Gao Xianzhi's private residence is not far from the palace. When he arrived at the door, his slave opened the side door and led Chen Guang and others into the house. "Chen Lang has a good rest tonight, and I will look for you to talk to you at night."

Feng Changqing asked the Gao Mansion slaves to take Chen Guang to the villa room to live in the villa. Wang Shenyuan and his team of fangs rested in the front yard. They were Gao Xianzhi's private soldiers. When Gao Xianzhi returned to Yancheng to live for a while, they also lived in the mansion and took turns to stay at night guards with other teams.

The lights were on in the wing room, and Duowen, who was holding the money box, was dozing off. Hearing the sound of the door shaft turning, he suddenly woke up. He was confused and thought that he had entered, so he grabbed the wooden sticks placed beside him and almost hit the Gaofu slave who led the sunlight in.

"This is the most peaceful place in the city. What kind of thieves do you guard against?"

Seeing Duowen throwing the wooden stick awkwardly and apologizing to the slave, Chen Guang couldn't help but smile and said, "She has always been like a wealthy slave since he has this money box."

"My husband has something to do, but I just want someone to go to the next room to call me."

"You can make some hot water."

"If the husband wants to take a bath, there will be a hot soup in the house."

Chen Guang didn't want to be too troublesome, but he was busy all the way and had not taken a shower for a long time. For a moment, he felt itchy all over, so he followed the slave.

In the wooden pond about five meters square, water vapor was filled with water. After bathing, the sunken light soaked in hot water. He felt comfortable all over. However, he had not been alone for long, and he could only hear footsteps outside. When he looked up, he only saw Feng Changqing, who was expressionless, was wearing a loincloth, and his narrow eyes staring at him as if he was sitting on pins and needles.

Chen Guang suddenly stood up from the pool, Feng Changqing's eyes lit up, and he whispered to himself, "The capital is good." After that, he took off his clogs, stepped into the pool, and said to Chen Guang, "The Protector will not come back tonight, don't waste the water in this pool."

After sitting back in the pool, Chen Guang said to Feng Changqing, "Brother Feng, isn't there often hot water in this pool?"

"That's natural. Anxi Shaolin wood is precious. Such a pool of water needs to be heated and kept warm. It costs less than a few cents. The mansion thought the Protector would come back tonight, so it burned the pool of water in advance. Now it's cheaper."

Feng Changqing replied, and then he leaned against the edge of the pool, his face full of comfort and no intention of talking.

Chen Guang was also silent. He calculated how many times he had enough money to take a bath. Duowen said that those coins were worth less than 400 knots, so it seemed that he was still a poor man.

"Brother Feng, what are the housing prices in this city?"

Seeing Feng Changqing's enjoyment look with his eyes narrowed, Chen Guang couldn't help asking, he was afraid that he would not be able to buy the four hundred decent houses in his hand.

"How much money does Chen Lang have?"

Feng Changqing suddenly opened his eyes. He looked at Chen Guang, who was a little embarrassed, and said slowly, "Yancheng is more than ten miles in the circumference of him. The prices of houses in different places in the city are different. Moreover, if Chen Lang wants to buy a house, he has to match all the errands and children, otherwise how to live."

"I only have four hundred guan in my hand. Brother Feng thought he would buy it and the size is appropriate."

"Four hundred stakes are not bad."

Feng Changqing did not expect that Chen Guang had a lot of savings. The soldiers of the Anxi Army were not counted as the land at home. The annual salary was about fifteen stakes. The staff in the custodian shogunate were only thirty stakes, and 400 stakes were enough to buy a large mansion. However, if you want to get closer to the custodian, it would be far from enough.

"I'll accompany you to go shopping tomorrow."

Hearing Feng Changqing's words, Chen Guang couldn't help but be stunned. He almost thought he had heard it wrong, but Feng Changqing had closed his eyes at this time, so he could only close his eyes and rest.

First set a small goal for yourself, buy a big house and have a pool that can take a bath!

After a while, Chen Guang got up and left the pond after thinking so. At this time, his whole body was soaked white and red, and he couldn't say anything comfortable. After changing into clean clothes, he followed the Gaofu slave who had led the way back to the wing room.

"Mr. Lang, you are back."

Seeing Chen Guang, Duowen hurriedly said that he had grown up in Zanmo Temple since he was a child. After returning to secular life, he had been with Shen Guang. He suddenly separated for most of the day, and he felt a little scared.

"Duowen, open the cash box and count it again, how much money do we have?"

Chen Guang sat on Hu's bed with his legs crossed, letting Duowen open the wooden box containing the money. Then, in the candlelight, the flashing little cuteness emitted a soft light, the copper coins inside were stringed together with ropes, and the gold and silver coins were also separated and stacked neatly.

"Langjun, there are seventy silos of copper coins here, thirty-two dinars, and thirty-seven thirty-six thirty-six thirty-six thirty-six thirty-six thirty-six thirty-six thirty-six thirty-six thirty-six thirty-six thirty-six thirty-

When he heard the news, he knew everything about his knowledge. The dinar and Dirkhan he mentioned were gold and silver coins from the old land of Dashi and Persia. They were also the most widely circulated currencies on the Silk Road. Almost one dinar is worth ten guan copper coins, and one hundred guan copper coins are worth three guan copper coins.

"Duowen, why did this gold coin even get a look?"

From the gold coins, Chen Guang picked up a gold coins with two extra holes and asked Duowen in confusion.

"Mr. Langjun, this is called money for piercing holes. Those profiteers deliberately drilled holes and used them as storing gold. They also cut the edges and cut the outside carefully. When such money is taken to the market and spent, they will be reduced."

Duowen said angrily, and he found more than ten gold coins from the pile of gold coins that had been tampered with, for Chen Guang to see.

"That means, our money is actually not as much as four hundred stakes!"
