Until Tangning found an inn and booked the second floor of the inn. After temporarily resettled it in Shazhou, there was still a slight pain in a certain location on his waist.
Xiaoxiao gave him a helpless look and closed her door and took a shower.
After entering the room, Tang Yaoyao snorted coldly, sat by the bed without saying a word
Tang Ning sighed secretly. He admitted that he had caused more love debts, but he would not be so tempted to see a few foreign women with their belly exposed on the street.
Don't worry, Tang Xiangyin, who likes to be jealous, she will be fine after a while
Tang Ning was worried about Xiaowan's mother and Tang Shui. Xiaowan was different from Chen Chu and Guizhou. Tang Ning had no eyes or ears there, and no one escaped except Hong Qi. Apart from Hong Qi, all of them became Xiaowan's prisoners.
No matter how urgent he was, what he needed to do now, he should calm down and collect information about the Western Regions and Xiaowan.
In addition, they also need at least one guide who is proficient in the language of the Western Regions. After all, none of them understand the language of the Western Regions. If they rashly enter the Western Regions, they will not be able to communicate with each other, and they will encounter unimaginable obstacles if they communicate.
However, this matter is not difficult. Western Regions and Chen State had traded with each other in their early years. In Shazhou City, there were many people who made a living by translator, called "translator". They were proficient in the languages of the two regions. Western Regions and Chen State merchants were willing to hire them and followed the caravans all the way, and they only needed to pay them a portion of the reward.
Although the languages of dozens of small countries in the Western Regions are different, except for a few countries, the languages are similar. Generally speaking, hiring two translators is enough to solve the problem of communication.
As for big countries like Xiaowan and Wusun, there are already many envoys who are proficient in Chinese, so there is no need to worry about communication.
Even so, just in case, Tang Ning planned to find a reliable translator before leaving.
Tang Yaoyao saw Tang Ning sitting at the table and hadn't spoken for a long time. She slowly leaned over and whispered: Don't worry, you didn't say that Xiaowan has always been very good to the prisoners, they will definitely not be able to do anything.
Tang Ning sighed lightly and said: If only I stopped them and didn't let them come to the Western Regions.
Tang Yaoyao shook her head and said: My cousin wants to come to the Western Regions to find her parents. Even if you want to stop her, she can't stop her.
She suddenly thought of something, looked at Tang Ning and asked: If Tang Shui cousin finds her parents, can your engagement be cancelled?
Tang Ning nodded. At that time, Tang Ning and Tang Shui's engagement was decided by both parents, so they could naturally cancel it.
Tang Yaoyao asked again: What if she didn't find it?
The ancients valued loyalty and promises very much, the orders of parents and the words of the matchmaker, and the marriages made by both parties naturally cannot break the contract. This is a ceremony.
If the other party has passed away, this agreement cannot be easily violated, otherwise it will be despised by ten thousand people.
But, we can't really let him and Tang Shui fulfill the agreement between the two parents that year, right?
My cousin turned into a wife. Thinking of that possibility, Tang Ning swallowed, lit up Tang Yaoyao's forehead, and said righteously: What are you thinking about in your head all day long? Go and take a shower, and we have to go out to do business after taking a shower!
Tang Ning exposed her dirty thoughts, and Tang Yaoyao went to take a shower in shame. The air in Shazhou is extremely bad today, and the air is filled with wind and sand. She and Xiaoxiao have been walking outside for so long, and they can't stand it anymore.
Tang Ning sat at the table and waited for Tang Yaoyao to go out together after taking a shower. For some reason, a thought suddenly emerged in his heart.
After a while, he lowered his face, gently slapped himself, spit hard, and said angrily: Bah, scum!
……
Although Shazhou is located in a desert, the weather is hot and the air is not very good, the fruits here are of good quality.
Tang Yaoyao and Xiaoxiao were holding a piece of melon, and Tangning was also holding a bunch of grapes in his hand. Due to the large temperature difference between day and night, the fruits grown here are very easy to accumulate sugar. Tangning has eaten a lot of tribute fruits, but they cannot be compared with local fresh goods.
I heard that the westward outside Yumen Pass, the sweeter the fruits produced are, but they are not resistant to preservation. Only in the local area can they taste their original taste.
With the lesson I just learned, Tang Ning no longer looked at the women with their navels and forearms exposed. He found out where to hire translation, and walked to the translation hall with little Tang Yaoyao while walking.
The translation museum in Shazhou is not an official institution, but a spontaneous organization among the people. Through the assessment of the translation museum, you can become a translation agency. It can be recommended by the translation museum to Chen Guo or the Western Regions merchant team who need translation.
Correspondingly, the translation library will also collect some of their remuneration as a recommendation.
In addition, there are some who have not passed the translation library assessment and usually do some translation business. The level of these translations is generally not very high. Only some small caravans who want to save money will hire them.
These were all found out by Tang Ning from the inn waiter
Tang Ning naturally hoped to recruit a reliable peer of translation, so he didn't take a look at those undocumented translations wandering outside the translation museum.
As soon as he stepped into the translation hall, a manager came up and asked enthusiastically: Young Master, do you need translation?
Tang Ning nodded and said: I need a translator who is proficient in languages in the Western Regions. Do you have any recommendations?
Proficient in languages of various countries? The manager was stunned, looked at Tang Ning and asked: "Young Master, which countries do the countries refer to?"
Tang Ning asked: Do you don’t understand the translation of all languages in the country?
The manager was stunned again, and then said with a smile: Young Master, there are more than 30 countries in the Western Regions, and almost every country has a different language. How could there be a translation that understands the language of all countries at the same time?
Although Tang Ning's ultimate goal of this trip was Xiaowan, in order to avoid any changes on the way, he naturally prepared carefully. He thought that if someone could be proficient in multiple languages, he would save a lot of trouble, but now it seems that he took it for granted.
At this time, a young man suddenly came up and said: Don't listen to him. If you want to find a general translator, you can find me Ah. I am proficient in the language of the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions, familiar with the terrain of the Western Regions, fair prices, and honest...
The manager saw the young man and kicked him hard on the butt and said angrily: Bahar, if you make trouble here again, I will let someone break your legs!
The young man was kicked and ran away. The manager looked at Tang Ning and smiled and said: This is a rogue, the young man doesn't have to worry about him...
Tang Ning ignored the young man, looked at the manager and said: Then find someone who is proficient in Xiaowan's language.
Xiaowan? The manager's face changed and he said: Young Master is going to Xiaowan?
Tang Ning looked at him and asked: Why, do you know the translation of Xiaowan's dialect here?
This is not
The manager shook his head and said: A few years ago, Xiaowan was just a small country with a population of only a few hundred. There are not many translations of Xiaowan here, but there are also several. The problem is that the situation in the Western Regions is now tense, and the biggest reason is that there are many dangers there. There are no translations willing to go to Xiaowan...
Tang Ning looked at the manager and said: Just ask me, money is not a problem.
The manager said: There are two translations here who know Xiaowan's words. The young master is here for a while and I'll ask you
The manager left the lobby and walked back a while later, shook his head and said: Young Master, it's really a coincidence that the two interpreters followed the caravan to another place yesterday, and it will take two months to come back at the earliest.
Tang Ning couldn't wait for two months. He felt a little regretful, thanked the manager and planned to leave.
The young master was about to turn around, but the manager called him again and said: Nothing is important. I would like to advise the young master not to go to Xiaowan...
Thank you for the reminder
Tang Ning smiled and threw a ingot of silver over. The manager subconsciously took it. After weighing it, he found that there were at least ten taels of silver in his hand. He was happy and immediately put it away.
He bowed to the background where Tang Ning left, then turned around and left
At the same time, in the translation museum, the few people who happened to see this scene suddenly lit up.
Tang Ning walked out of the translation museum, feeling a little disappointed. Just as he was about to go back to the inn and find another way, a voice suddenly came from behind him.
Are you going to Xiaowan?
Tang Ning turned around and looked at the young man who was kicked away by the manager just now walking towards him.
Tang Ning looked at the young man named Bahar and asked: Do you understand Xiaowan's words?
Bahar raised his head and said: Didn’t you say that I am proficient in the 36 languages of the Western Regions. In addition to Xiaowan, I also understand Dayue, Kucha, Wusun...
Tang Ning looked at him and asked: I don’t dare to go to Xiaowan so many general translators. Are you afraid of death?
They know nothing!
Bahar glanced at his mouth disdainfully and said: I am familiar with the situation in the Western Regions. No country is safer than Xiaowan. If Xiaowan cannot go, he cannot go anywhere in the Western Regions...
Xiaoxiao gave him a helpless look and closed her door and took a shower.
After entering the room, Tang Yaoyao snorted coldly, sat by the bed without saying a word
Tang Ning sighed secretly. He admitted that he had caused more love debts, but he would not be so tempted to see a few foreign women with their belly exposed on the street.
