Through Time Chapter 31

“Just taking you into town?”

Wang Li said, somewhat unprejudiced, to

“It’s that simple?”

Zhao Lang laughed and

“I grew up in the manor and haven’t been outside yet, so of course I’m curious about what it’s like in town.”

“Also, you’ll pay for all the expenses we have to go out this time.”

Hearing this, Wang Li obviously felt some meat on his bones, after all, there could be dozens of the girls.

However, he spoke with a stiff upper lip and said

“What does it matter? I don’t care about this small amount of money.”

Zhao Lang did not poke at it and said that

“Then it’s settled.”

The two agreed at once to go to the city when the girls could move around.

The next few days were the same as usual.

It was Kong A who looked at the teenagers with bruises and battered noses when he was teaching the class and asked curiously.

Once he knew it was the result of training, he didn’t ask any more questions.

It was Zhao Xie who was curious about what had happened, but Zhao Lang simply ignored him.

Soon, a few days later, when Zhao Long saw that Su could already move around freely, he decided to take the girls shopping the next day.

“House Master, what about us?”

Big Dog asked as soon as Zhao Lang had announced the news, running over to him on his butt.

At this time, Zhao Lang was lying on the recliner that had only been made recently, with Little Seven and Little Nine massaging him behind him.

This was Zhao Lang’s way of soothing his sore muscles after his daily training sessions.

“You guys?”

“You all lost, and you still want to go shopping?”

Big Dog said with a shy face.

“House Master, how inconvenient it is for so many of you to go, and all of you are girls, you always need one to run ahead and behind.”

Zhao Long looked at Big Dog until he was a little embarrassed to see the other side.

Suddenly revealed a smile.

He knew who had leaked the secret.

But Zhao Lang wasn’t surprised, it was normal for such young boys and girls to have secret feelings together.

“Alright, you talk to Go to Hell and bring five boys to leave with me tomorrow.”

Zhao Lang said indifferently.

“Go to hell and go too, huh?”

Big Dog’s interest was visibly lowered.

“Well, it’s settled, you go and tell him.”

Seeing that Zhao Lang had already made his decision, Big Dog could only admit it.

After Big Dog had left, Little Seven and Little Nine became visibly excited.

The two of them had grown up in the countryside, and after they arrived at the manor, they had just been following Zhao Lang and had never been to the city.

“Tomorrow you guys can buy whatever you want, you don’t have to be polite.”

“Thank you, Gongzi!”

The two men said in unison.

Zhao Lang also nodded in satisfaction, although he was not short of money either, but it always felt better to spend the money he won from a bet.

Early the next morning.

A slightly longer team of ox carts set off.

There was a lot of stuff on the oxcarts, as the distance was quite far to spend the night in the city.

So in addition to the five boys, Hef and the others were out in full force this time.

Looking at the fading cattle caravan, Fubuki’s eyes were full of worry.

“Don’t make any mess is what’s going to happen.”

Soon after, Uncle fo*k smacked himself lightly in the mouth and

“Blah, blah, blah, blah, the bad doesn’t work for the good.”

“The local officials have all said hello, the itinerary has been reported to the family head, and the Duke is going to the imperial capital, what can go wrong?”

It wasn’t until the bullock cart’s were no longer visible that Uncle Fu returned inside the manor.

At that moment, the ox-cart team was in full laughter.

This group outing was new to the young girls and everyone was extra excited.

For Zhao Long, it brought back memories of his autumn trips as a student in his previous life, so he was in a good mood too.

But Wang Li, who was in the same ox cart with him, did not look so good.

“What’s wrong? Didn’t sleep well yesterday?”

Zhao Lang asked deliberately.

Wang Li twitched the corner of his mouth and said that

“Ah Long, why are there so many people? Didn’t I say just take the girls?”

He had all but planned to hemorrhage money.

But looking at Zhao Lang’s battle, this was asking for people’s lives!

At this point, Zhao Lang said in a serious manner that

“I’m taking the girls out, and it’s not good to walk such a long distance, so an ox cart is a must.”

“There are so many people, do we need servants?”

“When there’s a lot of people it’s an eye sore, surely you need Uncle Hef and the others as bodyguards too.”

Zhao Lang counted them one by one, and Wang Li thought they all made sense.

In the end, he could only close his eyes as if resigning to his fate.

Zhao Lang laughed at this time and said

“Whatever you’re worried about, didn’t we agree that you would pay for the girls’ purchases only?”

Wang Li’s eyes instantly lit up and he gave a smile, faked a cough and said that

“It’s not like I’m worried about that, I’m just thinking that there are so many of us going into the city, we still need to be safe.”

“After all, the capital city is not like other places, there are many rules.”

“But don’t worry, I grew up there, there won’t be any problems.”

Wang Li wasn’t joking, Qin law was so strict that in some places littering could get you arrested and sent to jail.

As the ox cart slowly moved on, Zhao Lang looked at the scenery on both sides of the road and gained some more insight into the Great Qin.

The scenery was beautiful, but the people were very poor.

No one in the caravan felt anything, as everyone was the same now.

But Zhao Lang felt a little hard done by, a situation that in a previous life would have been below the absolute poverty line.

The Chinese people deserved better.

As we gradually approached the capital city, things slowly got better, and Zhao Lang’s touchy-feely thoughts only slowly faded away.

By mid-afternoon, their caravan finally arrived at the capital city of Xianyang!

Looking at the towering city walls, and the marks of swords and spears on them, Zhao Lang felt the atmosphere of the Great Qin for the first time.

This was a great dynasty.

“Unfortunately, it was a bit short-lived.”

Zhao Lang said to himself.

Soon, the inspection for entering the city was done, and Zhao Lang led the men into the city.

Looking at the bustling streets, the whole group was slightly excited.

“Pass it down, we will check in at the inn first today, no one is allowed to move without permission.”

Zhao Lang said to Wang Cai who was standing by.

Just as Zhao Lang was about to give a few more instructions.

Suddenly, an army dressed in Xuan black clothes came out from everywhere like a tidal wave.

They began to clear the streets.

Zhao Lang’s mind was baffled for a moment at that time.

“A rebellion and you’re discovered? But I haven’t even started yet.”

Wang Li’s face changed drastically at this point, and he hurriedly led his team, retreating to the side.

Luckily, there was a large open space at the entrance of the city, enough for so many of them.

“What’s going on here?”

Zhao Lang quickly realised that these sergeants were not coming for him.

“This is the First Emperor’s guard! The First Emperor has gone on a tour!”

Wang Li’s face was red with excitement at this point.

Zhao Lang cursed, this is too much luck for them!

After waiting for a long time, an extremely large group of people slowly appeared in front of the people.

Inside a magnificent carriage in the middle of the procession, Qin Shi Huang, dressed in an imperial crown, was sitting inside, with Zhao Gao serving at the side.

“The Zhuangzi reported over that Long’er is arriving in the capital today, right? ”

Qin Shi Huang asked indifferently.

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Zhao Gao returned, and

“Gongzi Lang should be among the crowd at this time.”

Qin Shi Huang laughed at this point and

“Let him see the might of my Great Qin army, and see if he still has the ambition to rebel.”
