A special forces soldier traveled through time and space to become a genius of literature and martia

Yuan Ying came to a clothing store called Fengji with a large bag of silver in her arms. She walked to a piece of clothing that looked good, stopped, and said to the waiter, "Brother, how much is this clothing?"

The waiter looked him up and down with sidelong glances. He was wearing a rough linen shorts and didn't look like a rich man at all.

"Don't look at it, you can't afford it. You can't afford it even if you see flowers! Go away... Don't affect our business, it's really unlucky." The waiter pushed people away with a rag.

Hey... you look down on people, don't you?

Yuan Ying said sullenly: "Call your shopkeeper. You are just a waiter, and everyone who comes is a guest. Is there any unwritten rule in your shop?

I would like to ask you, which law stipulates that anyone wearing coarse linen clothes cannot enter? I am neither ragged, naked, nor untidy.

Don’t you understand that everyone who comes is a guest? Is the store bullying the guests? Then let the neighbors judge for themselves, okay? "

The waiter saw that he had met a tough guy. Although he was a man dressed simply, he could speak very well. The waiter was panicked and didn't know what to do. He looked behind the counter for help.

The shopkeeper had indeed been listening in the dark for a while, and he quickly came out to smooth things over.

"Hey, young man, I'm the shopkeeper of this store. The waiter is ignorant. Please be magnanimous. I'll give you a discount on anything you like." He turned around and glared at the waiter.

The shopkeeper was in his thirties, with small but bright eyes, and not very tall.

Yuan Ying pointed at the clothes in front of him and asked, "How much is this dress?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Young man, you have a good eye. This is the finest satin and the latest style. I'll give you five taels of silver after you've discounted it."

Although she had no idea about ancient money, two buns for one penny was indeed a bit expensive. Yuan Ying touched her nose and wished she would not have been so stubborn.

But he couldn't wear too bad clothes when traveling in the martial arts world, so he gritted his teeth and said, "This is a complete set, and I need two sets of this cloth clothes for my daily martial arts practice. How much do I need two sets of inner clothes?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "I'll give the young man a discount and the total will be six taels of silver."

Yuan Ying picked up a piece of silver from the money given by those people just now. She didn't know how much it was. She put it heavily on the counter and asked the waiter just now: "How much silver is this? Can I afford it?"

The waiter was so scared that he stammered, "Ten... ten taels, I can... afford it..."

Yuan Ying smiled when he heard this: "Why don't you give me the change quickly?"

The waiter quickly took the silver and gave some change to Yuan Ying from the counter.

She took the packed clothes and left the store, then looked for an inn to take a good bath and have a good sleep.

After walking through the bustling main street, Yuan Ying asked a street vendor about a nearby inn.

"Young man, if you want to stay in a hotel, there is a Shuangxi Inn over there. The owner, Tong, is very nice. The rooms are clean and comfortable, the price is reasonable, and it is quiet at night. Turn into the alley from here and you will see it not far away." The small vendor introduced with a warm smile.

After Yuan Ying thanked him, he walked into the alley and saw the sign of Shuangxi Inn fluttering in the wind.

Shopkeeper Tong was indeed a nice person, a middle-aged woman in her forties who always smiled at everyone she met, making people feel very friendly.

Yuan Ying asked for a medium-sized room for fifty cents a day.

After returning to the inn, she put away her clothes, went to the lobby, ordered food, and had the waiter deliver it to her room.

I called the waiter to add bath water to the room. I had almost no time to take a bath because I was busy traveling every day. Occasionally I took a simple bath with river water, but it still smelled in the hot summer.

The inn's big bathtub was filled with water carried in by the waiter. Yuan Ying first scooped some water to wash his hair, and then took a nice bath.

I have a hard time choosing clothes. These expensive clothes are troublesome. I have to put on layer after layer in the hot summer, and it is not as convenient as wearing burlap.

After putting it on, I found that the clothes were too tight, and the 36 cups in the front could not be hidden. I had to wrap a cloth around it tightly, which was really painful in the hot summer.

In ancient times, men had more convenience, and there were too many restrictions on women. There was no choice but to sacrifice 36 cups.

After changing into clean clothes, I felt a little lighter.

Knock, knock, knock... There was a knock on the door. Yuan Ying got up and opened the door. It was the waiter bringing in food.

The waiter was stunned when he saw Yuan Ying's short hair. She saw the waiter's serious expression and said nonsense: "Don't make a fuss, I am a monk who has returned to secular life."

Then he took out a small piece of silver and gave it to the waiter, saying, "Young man, please sit down. I have something to ask you."

"I have been practicing in a temple deep in the mountains. This is my first time down the mountain. I know nothing about the outside world. What country is this? Who is the emperor? How strong is the country? Please tell me everything in detail."

The clerk looked at the silver in his hand and swallowed his saliva, saying: "We are in the Great Xia Kingdom, and Emperor Kang Ren is in power now. Emperor Kang Ren has thirteen sons and eight daughters.

This year is the 32nd year of Kangren, and the current crown prince is born to the eldest prince and queen. The capital is in Yanjing City, and the national strength is the second largest among the surrounding countries, and Yin is the strongest.

The capital is located in the north, and the diet is mainly based on noodles. We are in the southeast of Xia State, thousands of miles away from Yanjing City. Xia State is now vast and sparsely populated, and there are many territorial disputes with neighboring countries.

There have been wars for many years, so the people have been suffering. Sir, that is all I know. "

She fell into an imaginary dynasty. Yuan Ying digested the man's words and thanked him: "That's detailed enough, thank you, brother."

She was puzzled as she ate the slightly bitter dishes, wondering why every dish had a bitter taste. Fortunately, she was not picky and ate them all.

After dinner, Yuan Ying walked to the window and opened it. The lights outside were just coming on, and big red lanterns with soft red light were hung around the inn.

She thought that if she wanted to settle down, she would have to settle down, but she didn't know whether it was easy to get a household registration in ancient times.

But money talks, and you can definitely get it done if you have money. It's just a matter of how much money you have, so if you want to make money, you have to go to a big city.

I think in ancient times you needed a travel permit to go to a big city. It's not that easy to get a household registration, but a travel permit should not be difficult.

At this time, Brother Eagle flew in from outside with a hare in his mouth.

Yuan Ying said: "Brother Ying, now we have money, we don't need you to hunt anymore, just follow me from now on, I guarantee you will have a good life."

Yuan Ying carried the hare downstairs and found Shopkeeper Tong, saying, "Hello Shopkeeper Tong, this is what my eagle caught. I'm giving it to you as a snack."

Shopkeeper Tong narrowed his eyes and smiled, "That's great. Thank you very much, little brother."

Yuan Ying said, "Shopkeeper Tong, do you have a way to get a pass?"

Shopkeeper Tong immediately looked at Yuan Ying with vigilance. Yuan Ying smiled innocently: "I ran away from the temple and wanted to go to Yunfu City, but I don't have a pass. I want to see if you have any solution?"

Shopkeeper Tong immediately clapped his hands with a smile on his face and said, "Little brother, you have come to the right person."

"But little brother, let me tell you that things are not peaceful outside. There is a plague in Zhuang County, many people have died, and it has affected several surrounding counties.

The imperial doctors in the palace are at a loss. The court has posted an imperial decree, offering a reward of 100,000 taels of silver and 100 acres of fertile land to find a famous doctor in the world to treat febrile diseases. You'd better not walk around casually now." Shopkeeper Tong kindly reminded.

Yuan Ying's eyes lit up when he heard the reward: "Really? One hundred thousand taels? There's actually such a huge reward!"

Shopkeeper Tong waved his hand casually and said, "Of course it's true, but the imperial edict is not so easy to uncover. In the past two days, the imperial edict in Yanjing City has been uncovered many times.

They all claimed that they were miracle doctors and had good ideas to cure the plague, and that the imperial court was not just sitting there doing nothing. But what happened? They walked into Yanjing City upright and were carried out horizontally.

Then he said seriously, "Brother, don't joke around. You might lose your head if you're not careful."

Yuan Ying nodded thoughtfully: "Manager Tong, what are the symptoms of the plague? How is it caused?"

Shopkeeper Tong said helplessly, "It seems that someone ate poultry that died in the flood and developed a persistent high fever, cough, vomiting, diarrhea, and in severe cases, a rash all over the body. Not long after being infected, they died."

Yuan Ying thought of a comrade who had a similar illness before. He was infected with typhoid bacteria because he ate raw meat and raw water during field training. The old military doctor gave him a prescription and he recovered soon after drinking it. Based on Tong's description, she initially concluded that it was typhoid fever.

Seeing Yuan Ying thinking, Shopkeeper Tong said, "Little brother, you don't want to reveal the imperial edict, do you?"

Yuan Ying smiled and did not answer directly: "Manager Tong, please help me get a pass and hire a carriage."

Yuan Ying took out some change and said, "This is all I have. Do you think it's enough? If not, I'll find a way."

Shopkeeper Tong glanced at the scattered silver coins, about ten taels in total, and gave a flattering smile:

"It won't cost that much. A travel permit costs about five taels of silver. I'll charge one tael as errand fee.

Just wait, I will definitely get it done for you tomorrow morning." After saying that, he walked away with his waist twisted.

It is an unwritten rule that several inns with the best business in the town can privately assist those in need in obtaining travel permits.

As for the price, it is naturally not cheap. After all, the officials in the yamen also need money, and not all the money goes into their hands.

Yuan Ying looked at the departing figure of Shopkeeper Tong and thought: He is a frank and straightforward person.
