Chapter 1109: Chapter 74: Xining Port

Great Li Dynasty, Chong State, Xining City, a cacophony of voices.

Yuan Province, Yu State, and Chong State are the three most barren and desolate cities of the Li Kingdom.

In theory, Xining City should be the sa, but due to the geographical advantage of Chong State, it has gained imnse benefits.

This small city stands on the western land protruding from the "Chong State" treasure bottle, overlooking from the Sea Suppression Platform. With ports along its periphery, many rchant ships dock here, making it a crucial stop from Qu River to North Sea. Many aristocratic families, even businesses in Fangyuan Square, require the interdiary of "Xining City" for their transactions.

As a result.

This small city beca an exception, a "treasure land" held in the palm of the barren Chong State.

At Xining Port, many rchant ships are unloading, and scattered pleasure boats are also docked. In the Great Li Dynasty, prominent aristocratic families have set up residences in Xining City and stationed servants permanently... As long as there are people, even in a barren and desolate desert, beautiful flowers can bloom. Xining City is the best example; bearing the weight of "mariti transportation," aristocratic families have successively settled in, and within a few decades, this small city has revived, becoming a famous "city of entertainnt" in the Li Kingdom. In recent years, Fangyuan Square has invested heavily in opening restaurants, theaters, and opera gardens in Xining City, attracting many playboys and wealthy young masters.

"Hurry up!"

"Hurry up!"

Chong State is located in the Northern Territory, and when winter arrives, the river at the port freezes with thick ice. The rchant ships are large and rough, not worth maintaining, they just bluntly crash into the port at most, sending a few laborers to guide them ashore. But the pleasure boats carrying esteed guests are different, with attendants waiting at the port, preparing for the arrival of the "pleasure boats." These servants each bow humbly, holding lanterns, scattering talismans.

The talismans flutter like snow.

Even though snow has yet to fall from the sky, the talismans scatter like falling snow, cheap and plentiful.

These are said to be Snow Burning Talismans drawn by Taoist practitioners. To the nobility, they are trivial, but to ordinary people, burning even one would cost half a month’s hard-earned wages. As these talismans fall on the river surface, they ignite the ice instantly, lting it within a few short breaths, revealing a "clear" river surface, creating a scene as if in a fairyland... At each docking point, there are dedicated channels and guides.

A hundred feet away.

A cargo ship slowly docks at the port, with more than a dozen young n in thin clothing, wielding iron crowbars and hoes, struggling to "plow," making a docking point for the cargo ship. Although it is the depth of winter, they are poorly dressed, so even shirtless, bare-chested, steaming with heat.

The stark contrast presents a rather satirical scene.

"Truly pitiful."

A young master in a purple mink cloak, leaning against the railing of the pleasure boat, shook his wine cup and solemnly lanted, "In such harsh weather, still having to work so hard... these poor souls, it’s not easy to make a living..."

Though he spoke so.

He only gave a glance and then withdrew his eyes.

Outside, it is freezing cold, and aside from a few laboriously breaking ice, there is nothing to watch.

Inside the pleasure boat, a Great Array envelops it, with beauties accompanying.

lodic cords linger continuously.

Seven or eight beautiful dancers are performing barefoot in the pavilion of the pleasure boat, their waists slender, alluring and fragrant... However, what attracts the gaze of this young master in a purple cloak is not these "lowly" dancers. Smiling, he raises his cup towards a young woman in white not far away, speaking softly, "Miss Xie, your visit this ti is truly a pleasant surprise. Allow

to host a banquet to express my slight hospitality."

"Young Master Zhu, there’s no need for courtesy."

The young woman in white, not much older, wears a bamboo hat, her expression obscured.

She softly says, "Yueying’s eastward journey this ti is rely to visit the ’Marquis of Xining.’ Young Master Zhu’s assistance in facilitating this is greatly appreciated..."

"Don’t rush to refuse ."

Young Master Zhu replies with a smile, "You also know, my uncle is busy with affairs, and with so many trade rchants in Xining City, if he were to et everyone... how could he handle it all? The night is already late, the banquet is set, Miss Xie should give

so face."

"You..."

Beside the young woman in white stands a young man wearing an Iron Face.

Upon hearing this, the young man with the Iron Face imdiately stands up, his bronze eyes wide, filled with anger.

Xining City, indeed a vital location in Chong State, a hub for rchants.

But in the past, the Marquis of Xining always treated the Xie Family with great respect. In previous years, whenever the Xie Family sent envoys, the Marquis of Xining would personally welco them.

The Xie Family... after all, ranks among the top three families in Great Chu!

But now, the situation has changed significantly.

Since the Renshou Palace Incident, the Xie Family declined, and Xining City began ignoring Jiangning’s correspondence.

Now, having soone to et them is already considered an "honor."

This is the fickleness of human relationships.

When a person leaves, the tea cools, in just a mont.

"Tong Niu, it’s not worth it."

Before the young man with the Iron Face could act, a gentle voice reached his Heart Lake, followed by a snow-white hand gently resting on his shoulder, pressing him back down.

Xie Yueying stood up and smiled, "Young Master Zhu is right... this visit was indeed sudden. Young Master Zhu is willing to welco us and arrange a banquet, for which Yueying is truly grateful..."

With that said.

The pleasure boat emitted a subtle tremor as it docked.

Without waiting for more, Young Master Zhu disembarked first, frowning as he looked at the bowing boat attendants, he gave a fierce kick forward.
