That's right, the three must-visit places in Kunzhou are the outhouse, the trading area, and the restaurant.
Besides the food, the restaurant is also famous for its performances.
This group of women, who used to be prostitutes at the Jieyou Pavilion, have transformed themselves and no longer entertain customers, except for performing shows.
Their performances are diverse and captivating, making you want to see them again and again. But when you travel a long way to come back for the second time, they will have changed their performance style, giving you a refreshing experience.
After Gu Si said that, Gu Xin also thought it made sense.
She recalled that the day before yesterday, she and her sisters had gone to the restaurant to watch the girls from Jieyou Pavilion rehearse. She was confident that this time, the lantern festival in Kunzhou would definitely be known throughout the Great Zhou Dynasty.
She looked forward to the night.
The performance stage of Jieyou Pavilion was set up between the trading area and the restaurant, on the West City Avenue, which is the entrance to the West City Gate.
The two sisters are now heading to the trading area to check on the stage setup, so they've taken Xicheng Avenue directly.
Although the full moon is round and bright on the fifteenth, the stage still needs lighting.
Therefore, Gu Nian and Cai Xiaolian put a lot of effort into designing this stage. Currently, the only way to light it is with lanterns and torches. To ensure that everyone can see clearly without it being too crowded, the mother and daughter chose an open space on all four sides. After the girls from Jieyou Pavilion finish their performances, they can go down to change their clothes, unlike in the restaurant where they can go to the back or the sides to change.
Gu Xin and Gu Si looked around, then went off to do their own thing with anticipation.
Before they had gone far, the two sisters were stopped.
A burly man wearing a padded jacket, a full beard, and a hat stopped them: "Are you Young Master Gu the Third and Young Master Gu the Fifth?"
Gu Xin was taken aback. Since Bai Er hadn't come out to stop him, it meant this person wasn't in danger. So she nodded and asked, "What brings you here, brave warrior?"
"Hahahaha... That kid really didn't lie to me!" The big man was overjoyed, and then said, "Young Master Gu, Fifth Young Master Gu, I am Azahan from Chuyun Kingdom. I want to talk to Lord Gu about something, but Kuncheng doesn't allow non-Great Zhou people to enter the eastern city. So, I came to you first."
“Oh? Warrior Azahan, what do you need to discuss with my father? Since you can’t go to the East District, if you don’t mind, you can talk to us brothers and we can pass on your message,” Gu Xin said calmly.
“Oh dear, my three brothers, what we really want is to buy a house. Why does Lord Gu only build in the east? Why not in the west? It takes us two or three days to get here from Chuyun Kingdom. If we delay on the way, we won’t know about the new things Kuncheng is launching. Since we’re not allowed to enter the East District, why not build a place outside the West Gate specifically for those of us who can’t enter the East District? We really need it,” Azahan said with a frustrated expression.
“Brave warrior Azahan, just because you want it doesn’t mean everyone else does. Building a house is no easy task, and as you know, the government in Kunzhou doesn’t have any money. If we build it and can’t sell it, won’t my father be in big trouble?” Gu Xin looked at him with disapproval, saying that the idea was no good and that they didn’t want it, but she was already thinking about the problem.
The five neighboring states do not interact with the Great Zhou. The Emperor wants them to submit to the Zhou, but they want to remain in their own corner of the world. Therefore, people from the five neighboring states are not allowed to enter the Great Zhou.
The Great Zhou's defense line is Kuncheng. As long as you don't cross Kuncheng, you're not considered to have entered the Great Zhou. But now that they've come here and brought so many things, they've clearly attracted people from these countries. With so many people, the Kuncheng restaurants don't have enough rooms, and they can't keep letting people eat and sleep outdoors.
Therefore, building a hybrid city outside the west gate is entirely feasible.
