Although there is chaos and war, Chengyang County is also a big city, so everything in the city is still in normal order.
Qingyu and his entourage left the county governor's mansion and asked passers-by who was the richest in the city. The passers-by looked at them as if they were monsters.
"The richest ones are of course the Luo family. They run all the major shops and are the best in the city." The group then went to Luo's house.
Pan Ming followed him all the way.
Zhufeng wanted to turn a blind eye at first, but the young master's perseverance was amazing. Zhufeng finally couldn't help it. He turned back and pointed at Pan Ming and said, "Don't follow him."
Pan Ming hurriedly stepped forward with a smile: "Master, please help me carry this basket for you."
Chasing the wind hurriedly ran forward like a savage beast.
Pan Ming was not affected either. His eyes fell on Qing Yu and he walked over, "Little sister, have you learned Taoism from your master since you were a child? That's why you are so good? How old are you?"
Qingyu's mouth twitched: I also want to ask how old you are. "Eight years old." She smiled.
Pan Ming became more and more shocked, "Then I might as well call you Sister Qingyu, Sister Qingyu... Master, what does he know? In addition to medical skills, what other magic skills do you have? Tell me about it."
Qingyu walked up to Wen Ya in a few steps, pulling Wen Ya and Hong Tao, and turned a deaf ear to the others.
Pan Ming chased the master for a while, then Qing Yu for a while, and finally followed the family to Luo Zhai.
They were walking through the main gate. Luo Zhai was indeed the richest man in Chengyang County. There were six gatekeepers in front of the imposing gate.
Pan Ming snorted disdainfully, "You have the spare money to build such a nice house, but you are not willing to give a porridge shack to the refugees. God is really short-sighted. Why should you let such a person live a happy life?"
Zhufeng Hongtao and Shi'an were both surprised. Zhufeng looked at Wen Ya and said, "What on earth are we doing here?"
Wen Ya asked him to follow, and asked Hong Tao and Shi An to wait outside first, and then led Qing Yu to the door.
After talking to the doorman for a few words, the man first looked at the three of them, then took a look at Wen Ya's backpack. Finally, he seemed to say "wait" and went into the house. A quarter of an hour later, he came out again and took the three of them into the house.
After being brought into the house, Shi'an and Hongtao looked at each other in confusion outside the door. Pan Ming even circled around the two of them, asking questions.
…
Qingyu and the others were brought into the house, and they were reminded along the way: "You must take care of your hands and feet when you enter the house. Don't touch anything you shouldn't touch. Don't touch it casually."
Qingyu glanced at the person leading the way and felt that these words seemed to be spoken to her.
The three of them were taken into a side hall. The leader said "wait" and then left. After another moment, a fat man with narrow eyes walked in, followed by four nurses.
"You said you have some good stuff for sale? Take it out and have a look." He narrowed his eyes and sat down on the main seat, taking the teacup handed over by the servant.
Wen Ya put the basket on the ground, and there was a loud sound. She buckled the basket and took it away again. There was a big insect on the ground.
There was a sudden shock on his face with narrowed eyes, but it was fleeting. He put down the tea cup and stood up, walking around the big insect, touching here and there to explore. It was a pity: "If this is only alive, it is worth a lot of money."
Already."
Zhufeng immediately put on a smile and said, "That's easy to say. Next time, we will catch you alive. So this time, what price do you think we should give?"
He squinted his eyes and saw a knife wound on the big insect's neck, and was a little surprised: "This was hunted at close range? Which of you killed it?"
Zhufeng pointed at Wen Ya, "My wife killed her. My wife is born with great strength. We can hunt several big insects like this in a year."
Narrowing his eyes, he was startled again. He looked at Wen Ya, but was frightened by the latter's slightly sharp eyes. He quickly looked away, and then looked at Zhufeng with sympathy: There is a shrew in the family, and his status is not guaranteed.
.
He stood up and asked: "Are you selling only the skins or the skins and meat as well?"
"Together." Zhufeng said quickly.
He squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, then asked: "Can you really catch him alive?"
"Seriously." As long as we can meet him, Zhufeng added in his mind.
He squinted his eyes and tapped his fingers on his arms, "Then, since this is the first sale, I will give you a reasonable price. Skin, ten taels, meat, twenty taels."
Zhufeng glared, "Twelve taels? That's that much?" His son and daughter could earn two taels by running a street stall.
He narrowed his eyes but laughed angrily: "Twelve taels is not enough? Twelve taels can feed your family for a year. At this price, no more will be available. It's up to you whether to sell it or not. And you haven't peeled it yet.
Yes, I still have to spend money to find someone to peel the skin off. I've given you twelve taels of advantage, and you still don't appreciate it." He groaned for a while.
This... Zhufeng looked at Qing Yu and Wen Ya, then looked at Nian Nian, thought for a while, and then smiled and said: "Don't dare, then... can I ask for a reward from you and give us some money?"
Is there any winter coat you don’t want?”
...
Shi'an and Hongtao were bored waiting, while Pan Ming paced back and forth, "Master and Mrs. Master will not be detained inside. No, I have to find my father to bring in reinforcements."
"Hey, you're so anxious to get reincarnated." Hong Tao stopped him and raised her chin toward the door, "Isn't this coming?" As he said this, he and Shi'an went up to meet him.
Hongtao stepped forward and kept asking: "What are you trying to sell?"
Zhufeng then showed his confusion, "I also want to ask, where is that big insect? Why don't we know?"
Qingyu thought of something and was about to stop her when she heard Wen Ya say: "It was that night when I took my daughter to poop. I met her on the mountain and hunted her down." With Pan Ming present, she couldn't directly say it was Qingyu.
I went there on purpose because I thought there was an insect infestation there.
Qingyu couldn't stop it and shook her head helplessly.
When Pan Ming heard that he had hunted big insects, he was shocked: "You can actually hunt big insects..." Then he said with admiration in his eyes, "Master, Master, please accept..."
Zhufeng Shengfeng walked away in a flash. Wen Ya turned to one side and said coldly, "I am not the master's wife."
After the family left Luo Zhai, they began to wander around the streets in a novel way. The last time they went to Fu County, the city was in a dilapidated state, but this Chengyang County town was very lively and prosperous.
Pan Ming was used to seeing this, and there was nothing new about it. Instead, he was worried, "I'm afraid these superficial prosperity won't last much longer."
Several people looked at him.
Pan Mingsui explained: "There will be war here soon, and Qu State is ready to take action. I heard that they attacked Fu County a month ago, but Fu County was just their small-scale test.
Chengyang County is adjacent to Fu County and is an important pass. They will fight over soon. The court asked my father to make adequate preparations for the war, so the taxation of grain will start here again. Now the price ratio has increased several times.
Fan…”
Qingyu and the others were silent for a while. In the war-torn times, it was really unsafe to go anywhere.
After Pan Ming said this, he was inexplicably revived, "What do you want to eat? The young master of the county is treating you."
Zhufeng smiled: "How can we invite a little kid to treat us to dinner?" Then he pointed to a wonton shop and suggested: "Let's go have a good meal as a celebration." Now that he is rich, he really doesn't want to continue.
Eat the bark powder.
Everyone else nodded and said hello, and walked over to sit down one after another. Pan Ming didn't mind having a free meal and generously ordered three taels of wontons.
"By the way, master and master, what are your plans next?" Pan Ming took the time to ask.
Zhufeng thought for a while, then looked at each other with his family, "Let's find a place to stay first."
