On the way back to the inn, Zhang Yan asked Zeng Hao to take him around in a large circle, visiting all the main shopping streets in Xiangkou.
I have to say that the biggest difference between Xiangkou and Langyuan City is that there are many more shops here than in Langyuan City. The most shops sell various tea bricks and spices, as well as some high-end silk fabrics. And there are many shops in and out of these.
Many of the people in the shop are from the Beiwu Kingdom, whose clothing and hair accessories are different from those of the Nanyuan Kingdom.
Although Xiangkou is the first hub city after passing Tonghu Pass, are there too many Beiwu people here? You can see two out of ten people on the road.
Zhang Yan didn't understand the reason, but Zeng Hao knew it. Compared to Zhang Yan, although Zeng Hao was not much older, he had already visited every county in Nanyuan Kingdom. Even the towns in Beiwu Kingdom and the east coast of Yueshui
He has been to Huayue Shangguo.
Reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles is something Luo Changshan and his disciples have been practicing for a long time.
"Sir, you don't know. This month is the semi-annual "Business Month" agreed between us and the Beiwu Kingdom. During this period, several times more customs clearance documents will be issued than usual. In addition, some large companies that have fixed trade orders will be issued.
.More people from the Beiwu Kingdom poured in. And Xiangkou is the hub of Beijiang, so those barbarians naturally like to gather here."
Zhang Yan understood after hearing this. Normally there would not be so many people from the Beiwu Kingdom in Xiangkou. I think this time he just happened to meet them.
"Sir, this Yushizhai's rouge and gouache is very famous. I'll buy some for Sister Huiyuan to take back. She will definitely like it!" Zeng Hao suddenly remembered something when he was passing by a rouge shop, and he was about to rush in excitedly.
.I completely didn’t notice the increasingly serious expression on Zhang Yan’s face.
This brat is really thinking about my little sister!
However, Zeng Hao ran out happily and took two steps back. He looked at Zhang Yan awkwardly and said, "Sir, can you lend me some money? I didn't take it with me when I went out because I was afraid it would be stolen. I'll change it when I get back."
To sir."
Zhang Yan snorted in his heart and asked with a smile on his face: "How do you know that my sister likes this kind of rouge and gouache? Why didn't I know?"
"Sir, I heard Sister Huiyuan mention it once when I was helping in the store. She said that this kind of rouge gouache is the best in Nanyuan Kingdom. It's just too expensive and can't be bought in Langyuan City. So I
I just want to find a chance to bring her a box back."
The half-grown child had no idea how dangerous it would be for him to say this in front of his brother.
"That's it. Then I won't bother you. I'll just buy some for my little sister."
"Ah? Sir, you, you" Zeng Hao didn't know what to say for a moment. He couldn't let Zhang Yan not buy something for his sister, right? So he just strangled her by the neck with a funny expression.
Zhang Yan felt funny when he saw it. He ignored Zeng Hao and walked into the rouge and gouache shop in front of him that Zeng Hao had mentioned.
As soon as Zhang Yan entered the door, he smelled a complex fragrance. It seemed to be the aroma of many kinds of flowers intertwined together. And the people inside were almost all female guests. Of course, there were also male guests.
"Please take a look, sir. Do you want me to introduce you to you?" A waiter in the store, also a woman, greeted Zhang Yan. She was quite young, about forty years old.
Zhang Yan nodded, pointed to the bottles and cans on the cabinet behind him, and asked: "I don't understand these. I want to buy some rouge gouache for my sister. I heard that your products are very good. Can you recommend some to me?
Right? Just something suitable for little girls."
In Zhang Yan's opinion, this place is no different from the big-name cosmetics stores on earth. If you don't know something, just ask a knowledgeable salesperson to recommend it. And if you want to buy something, just buy the most popular ones, so you won't make any mistakes.
The clerk smiled and took something out, which was said to be a set. He also said it was the best-selling item in the store this year.
"You're in luck, sir. This is the last set in the store. You'll have to wait a month to get it again. If you're satisfied, I'll wrap it up for you?"
"Okay. Make the bag more beautiful, and I'll reward you with the remaining money." Zhang Yan didn't ask for money, and a few big tickets were placed on the counter. The other party's eyes lit up, he put away the money and started to find colored paper to pack.
"Wait a moment!"
The sudden sound caused the clerk who was packing at the counter to stop. He raised his head and saw a young girl walking over surrounded by several people.
"Miss, what can I do for you?"
"I want this box of rouge and gouache."
"But this box has already been sold to this customer." The clerk explained with a smile. This is not the first time she has encountered this kind of rush to buy the same thing. Kicking the ball to the customer is just like in their store.
It doesn't matter.
The girl frowned, and before she could speak, a young man of similar age next to her had already shouted to Zhang Yan: "Hey! How much did you give me? I'll give you double the box.
Give me the rouge and gouache. Do you hear me?"
Zhang Yan was speechless for a while. He never thought that one day he would encounter such a ridiculous plot.
Turning his head, Zhang Yan saw several people behind him. There were seven men and women, all 17 or 18 years old. And they were all wearing Beiwu Kingdom-style robes. The one in the middle who was reading a book was the last one.
The girl who spoke first was dressed the most luxuriously, and she looked like she was definitely not from an ordinary wealthy family. She was probably a lady from an official family.
Zhang Yan shook his head and said, "If you want it, you can figure it out for yourself. I won't sell what I have." After saying that, he motioned to the clerk to continue packing. He ignored the shouts of the young man behind him who wanted to add more money. It was like a bird.
The little male dog barked and barked, hoping to behave the same in front of the other female dog. Zhang Yan was not even interested in talking to him. Otherwise, wouldn't it really become a bloody plot?
"Hey, are you deaf? How dare you ignore me! Look, I won't beat you. Hehe, what's the matter with Miss Qingyu?" There was a surge of strength in the young man. He was obviously a Kaiyuan realm warrior, and he raised his fist as if
He wanted to rush towards Zhang Yan to teach him a lesson, but was finally held back by the girl in the middle. He could only watch Zhang Yan pick up the rouge and gouache without saying a word and walk out of the store.
The girl didn't even look at the boy who was trying to please her. Instead, she looked at Zhang Yan's leaving figure and said, "He has a badge around his waist that teaches him the martial arts academy. If you had done anything just now, we would have been in big trouble."

After hearing the girl's words, several people in the group were surprised. They either didn't notice the badge around Zhang Yan's waist. Or they noticed it but didn't read the words on it.
"Isn't that person a martial artist? How could he be a teacher from the Wushu Academy?"
"Besides, that person doesn't look very old, right? Are all the teachers appointed by Nanyuan Kingdom's Jiangwu Institute so careless?"
"Miss Qingyu, aren't you dazzled? That person can't be a teacher from the Wushu Academy."
The words of the companion did not make the girl in the middle change her words, but she also explained: "I am not a martial artist, and I am young. These are not problems. Don't forget to talk about the saying that there are guest teachers in the martial arts academy."
