Meng Yi rested in the prefecture for another two days.
Originally, he wanted to play in the county for two days.
But unfortunately, there was nothing interesting to see in the prefectures and counties here, so after wandering around for two days, he finally prepared to set off back to Xianyang.
Zhao Jun also left Ba County on the same day.
"Master Zhao, we will separate after we pass this section of the road ahead."
"I'm going straight ahead when I return to Xianyang. You have to turn left when you go to Shu County."
Meng Yi, who was sitting in the carriage, lifted the curtain and shouted at the other carriage next to him.
Zhao Jun stuck his head out.
"I know. Okay, let's just walk here. You can go back to Xianyang. Be careful on the way."
"And the most important thing I asked you to bring back, you must take good care of it."
Zhao Jun and his friends parked the car in front and said goodbye to Meng Yi.
"Okay, I'll keep it safe."
Meng Yi thought about the huge bag and felt helpless.
The few of them didn't talk for long and soon went their separate ways in the wilderness.
From here, Zhao Jun's troops turned left and headed towards Shu County.
"Sir, according to the description given by the prefect Zhu and the map, the distance between Ba and Shu counties is not that far."
"We can arrive in about ten days by carriage."
Xiao He said, pointing to the map he carried with him.
"Well, it looks like this section of the road is relatively easy to walk, but I don't know what the specific situation is like in Shu County."
Zhao Jun sighed deeply.
This is another journey into the unknown.
For the next ten days, the carriage rattled along the road.
Although the road was still bumpy, at least we could ride in a carriage the whole time, which was much better than having to walk through the mountains and forests in Ba County before.
They occasionally passed some small villages along the way and were able to stop and rest for a while.
However, despite this, Zhao Jun still spent the last few days lying in the car.
As the ninth day passed, they were finally approaching Shu County.
However, the closer you get to Shu County, the more strange things you find.
"Xiao He, did you see that? It's so strange."
Zhao Jun got out of the carriage and sat in the front driver's seat, talking to Xiao He who was riding a horse next to him.
"It's a bit strange indeed."
Xiao He nodded in response.
"What's so strange? What are you talking about?"
Liu Bang suddenly jumped out from the middle.
Zhao Jun was so scared that he couldn't help but glare at him.
"Don't you feel that the closer you get to Shu County, the more people there are on the road?"
Zhao Jun said unhappily.
"Yes, it seems so."
Liu Bang suddenly realized.
"When we were in Ba County before, the further we went, the fewer people there were. But along the way, we've already encountered several groups of people, and they all seem to be heading towards Shu County."
"I wonder what these people are doing. Did something happen in Shu County?"
Xiao He was a little worried about whether there would be any danger if so many people went to Shu County.
"From what I've observed, some of them are probably caravans, but many are not."
"I don't know. Let's wait until we get to Shu County and see."
A few people slowly approached Shu County with a slightly nervous and confused mood.
When Zhao Jun and his companions' carriage stopped outside the city gate of Shu County, everyone was shocked.
This place is really different from the previous Ba County.
Before, Ba County seemed sparsely populated as soon as one entered the county town.
But now, they were standing outside the city gate of Shu County, with people coming and going in an endless stream.
The not-so-big city gate was filled with people coming in and out, including many large caravans.
Although it is not as lively as the area north of Xianyang, it is much more prosperous than places like Hanzhong.
"We've arrived in Shu County now. Wow, it looks like we don't have to take the mountain road anymore."
Liu Bang was so excited watching the lively scene.
He was really bored because there were so few people in Bajun County before, but now it’s so lively and bustling, it feels like he’s in the city.
For a moment, Zhao Jun was also a little confused.
This Shu County looks really lively, and it seems to be in front of the mountains. The location is not remote and it is very convenient to travel.
"No wonder we met so many people along the way. It turns out there are so many people traveling to and from Shu County."
Xiao He couldn't help but sigh.
"Okay, let's go in and take a look. It's so lively that I can't wait."
She rubbed her hands together excitedly.
Although she is not afraid of the harsh conditions of the mountain roads, it is still worth looking forward to having such a prosperous county town.
"Yes, yes, I can't wait either. Let's go in quickly."
Liu Bang took the lead and rushed to the front.
There were quite a few of them, especially the armed captain following behind them, which made them even more eye-catching in the crowd.
As soon as you enter the city, you will know that Shu County is definitely a prosperous city.
There were many people and vendors walking on the street.
Among the crowd speaking local accents, there are also outsiders who speak Mandarin.
There are many foreign vendors here.
Zhao Jun frowned and became even more confused.
How did Shu County do this? Even now, Qin's business is not very active.
Except for Xianyang and Beidi, where business developed under her encouragement, there were still few merchants gathering in many other places.
But now Shu County has done it, and is watching the gathering of foreign merchants.
What is it about this place that attracts them?
They walked around the street and were not in a hurry to go directly to the local county magistrate.
As it was almost noon, the few of them found a local restaurant and sat down.
Besides, in Shu County, restaurants and eateries can be found everywhere.
