Having successfully entered the city gate, Mo Lan lifted the curtain and looked at the streets of Jiang County. As expected of a plain area, it was prosperous and bustling. Even the people on the street looked more peaceful than those in Ye County.
Sure enough, being far from the border and untouched by the flames of war, the people lived a relatively peaceful life.
According to the investigation, Jiangjun was the most important transportation hub in Ji State because of the Jingwei River, which runs through the north, south, east and west, making water transportation very convenient and developed.
Therefore, Jiang County was no less prosperous and magnificent than the capital city.
"Find a comfortable inn to stay in and get some rest." Now that she's in Jiang County, she naturally wants to explore the area.
"Yes, boss." Han Shuang drove the carriage, asked passersby for directions, and went directly to the most bustling street. He stayed at the Maple Bridge Restaurant, which was said to offer all-inclusive dining and lodging services.
Mo Lan stepped off the carriage and looked at the three-story building in front of her. She couldn't help but marvel at the wisdom of the ancients, realizing that the building already had its beginnings.
This was the first time she had ever seen a three-story house. In Guan County and Ye County, the highest house was only two stories. The plains were indeed different, and the lifestyle was much higher.
Following the waiter inside, we discovered there was another courtyard in the back.
They eat in the front and sleep in the back, without disturbing each other.
Mo Lan, who was not short of money, booked a suite with a small courtyard. The decor was quite unique, elegant and quiet, which pleased Mo Lan.
Ordinary people can't afford to live in such a place; even in modern times, it would be considered a five-star accommodation.
"Please rest assured, young lady. If you need anything, just pull this bell and I'll be right there."
The waiter looked at Mo Lan and her servant with a smile. People who could stay at their restaurant were not simple people. Don't underestimate them just because they were just waiters serving tea and water. They had a good eye for people.
"Our restaurant offers both dining and accommodation. The girls can dine in the main hall or be taken to their rooms. Just let us know in advance."
"Okay, bring the hot water over first," Han Shuang said, tossing a dime to the waiter.
"Yes, I'll arrange it right away," the waiter said, his smile growing even more eager after receiving the tip.
After driving at night for several days in a row, they were both quite tired, so they took a hot bath and went straight to sleep.
I woke up to find it was almost dusk.
After a good night's sleep and feeling refreshed, it's time to satisfy our hunger.
"Boss, shall we eat in the room or go to the front to order?" Han Shuang looked at Mo Lan, who was full of energy, and turned to look at the lanterns that had been lit outside. She couldn't help but ask.
"Since you're new here, let's eat in the room first. After dinner, we can take a stroll around the streets and do some on-site research." Although the lobby was lively, it was also cluttered, which affected our appetite.
If you want to inquire about the local customs and culture of Jiang County, just ask the waiter here.
The waiters who work in this kind of restaurant are all clever and quick-witted.
Han Shuang rang the bell, and within a few breaths, the waiter came running over.
"Have you two ladies rested well? Is there anything I can do for you?"
"I heard you are the most famous restaurant in Jiang County. It's just the two of us. Please arrange for some of your signature dishes to come over."
"No problem. If this is your first time visiting Jiangjun, young lady, I'll really give you a rundown. Just in time, the chef's marinated drunken crab has been opened, and the taste is absolutely amazing. Winter bamboo shoots and goose are warming and nourishing. Braised general fish is also one of our specialties, made from the freshest river fish from the Jingwei River. In addition, add a stir-fried small river shrimp, and that will be enough."
Upon hearing that the guests wanted to dine, the waiter immediately brought out the signature dishes and then waited with a smile for Mo Lan to confirm.
"This is indeed our first time in Jiangjun, so we definitely have to try the local specialties."
