A chubby kid wearing simple clothes but looking very expensive at first glance was followed by a burly young man who looked like a bodyguard.
As the pair walked along the barren streets of Beiyang Town, where the houses on the left and right were shabby and the clothes of all the pedestrians were equally shabby, they immediately attracted the attention of everyone around them.
There is only one main street in Beiyang Town, and it is already filled with stalls of all kinds early in the morning.
A man selling poultry on the roadside quickly took out a duck from the cage next to him and greeted him warmly: "Noble, noble lady, look at this big stupid duck like me...,,"
Before he finished speaking, he was pushed away by a fat woman, "How can a noble lady care about such things like yours? The noble lady, look at me, the flowers I just picked this morning are all fresh, how beautiful they are..."
She was also pushed away by another man, who held up the wooden sculpture in his hand and made a passionate sales pitch.
Seeing that everyone was about to rush in front of his sister, Daliang quickly stepped forward to block Qi Bao'er.
He shouted: "Go away, we can see what we want to buy."
This person also learned from Mrs. Tian's essence of pretending to be an AC. His sullen attitude of yelling at people was very bluffing, and he immediately calmed down the townspeople setting up stalls.
Looking left and right, they all hurried back to their stalls to guard them, all smiling at the brother and sister to please them.
There are no real wealthy people in Beiyang Town, but there are still some who pass by. Although they are in the mountains, precisely because they are in the mountains, there are many people who come to collect mountain goods. To them, those people are not noble people.
It was similar to Dali's attitude towards them, they were all yelling at them.
Qi Bao'er is really impressed by her eldest brother. His breasts are much better than hers. He doesn't have stage fright at all, and he feels like he's acting in his own right.
There is definitely something wrong with her genes!
The two of them didn't buy anything. They had no choice and couldn't afford it. They scattered money and left Qi Bao'er with a few hundred coins, which was the only possessions left by Lao Qi's family.
But the expensive things on both sides of the street, including a blue wild flower that seemed to be the cheapest, cost ten cents.
I just pray that Bao'er feels distressed because he picked up a lot of things casually on the road.
But these two drama stars didn't let anyone notice that they were poor. This is how Daliang asked the price. At first he looked like he didn't care about your things. When he found out the price, he gasped in his heart, but his face was full of anger.
'It's just that little, it's trivial'.
Needless to say, it's quite bluffing. Each of them thinks that they are annoyed that others don't appreciate the things they bring, instead of doubting that these two people will be poorer than them now.
But it doesn't matter, these people will stay in the town for a few days, and they can always come up with something that satisfies them.
A group of people watched the brother and sister go away with a smile. When the two disappeared around the corner, they immediately picked up their belongings and dispersed. It was obvious that they were very skilled in this operation.
But they didn't notice that at the corner of the street, he was looking up and down at them.
Da Liang pulled his head back and pulled the girl back, gritting his teeth with an angry look on his face and saying: "These people are going too far. They just want to steal our money. They are so blatant that they don't even bother to fake it."
Qi Baoer raised his head and looked at his brother with contempt: "Brother, do they need to fake it?"
Being able to do this is already giving them face, right?
They, a group of refugees, are now in Beiyang Town, which is currently the safest place within a radius of hundreds of miles or even further.
Just like last night, many people asked for ten taels when entering the city. They are directly reaching out to you to ask for it, but do you dare not to hand it over?
Whether you want to settle down here or just take a breather while passing by, you have to enter the city first.
The people in the town treat them the same way. They tell you openly that they are cheating on you, but do you dare to say openly that you don’t want to?
They are now the fat sheep in the eyes of the whole town. It is not terrible to offend one person, but if you offend the whole town, what can you do if you have someone in your hands?
This is where the county magistrate here is smart. He earns his own money without stopping the townspeople from earning. In this way, the interests are combined without the county magistrate having to say anything. The townspeople consciously deal with the issue of refugees.
They will be extremely united.
"Let's go to the blacksmith's shop." Qi Bao'er walked first, carrying his claws on his back.
Thinking about these is unnecessary.
Dali was originally depressed because of Qi Bao'er's words, but seeing that Qi Bao'er had left, he quickly put aside his bad mood and followed.
The blacksmith shop is said to be difficult to find, and it is located in a remote alley.
It can be said that it is easy to find. After all, although the town is not small, it is so poor that there is only one blacksmith shop in the town.
Qi Bao'er gave Dalian a hundred words and asked him to inquire among the children running around in the town. Dalian had some ghost spirits inherited from Qi Kang'an, and he was specifically looking for those who were alone. It was particularly difficult at first glance.
's children.
"Kid, I want to ask something." His tone was arrogant, and he handed over five cents like a charity.
Da Lian's heart was already bleeding with pain. He had never had more than five cents of pocket money in his entire life.
The child was so happy that he didn't even know where to put his hands. He wiped his dirty little hands on his clothes again and again before he dared to reach out and carefully take the money.
No matter how much he wiped his little hand, it was still black, but Da Lang didn't dislike it. Instead, he grabbed the little hand as if he was impatient and pushed the money into his hand. He still asked in a bad tone:
"Do you have a blacksmith shop in this town? We need to buy something."
The child happily grabbed the money in his hand and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, I know the way and I will show you the way."
That's a good feeling.
The child led the brother and sister through twists and turns in the alley. Whether it was a pure coincidence or the child's intention, they only occasionally heard human voices along the way, but never met anyone.
Arriving at a remote alley, the child pointed to the last shabby house at the end of the alley and said, "We're here, right there."
Da Lang looked at the broken house, then turned to look at Qi Bao'er beside him, with a confused look on his face.
Sister, are you sure the people living here can afford five hundred taels of silver?
Qi Bao'er didn't pay attention to Da Lang at this moment, but kept looking at the child who pointed out the place to them and ran away until his figure disappeared around the corner at the end of the alley.
"Sister, what's wrong?"
Qi Bao'er shook her head and said nothing. When the truth was revealed, her elder brother would go crazy.
He walked towards the broken house.
This town is really interesting.
The door of the shabby house was ajar, and when you pushed it gently, you could hear the old creaking groan.
Acridine, sister, brother is scared.
"Yes, is there anyone?"
As the eldest brother, Da Lang had the courage to push open the door and walked in. However, his back was a bit awkward and he looked like a little old man.
After entering, the brother and sister were a little shocked by the strangeness of the owner of the house.
From the outside, it looks like a dilapidated house that might collapse if the wind blows. But when you come in, all you see are blue bricks and red tiles.
"Who is it?" came an old but powerful response from inside.
After a while, an old man wearing a burlap jacket with his sleeves rolled up to his upper arms walked out from the door of the outer room of two side by side rooms on the right side of the yard.
