The young man at the inn turned his head, his gaze wandering around the entire lobby.

Then, he looked at me, smiled softly, and whispered, "If you see the right one, you can ask for the price." ”

Hey, why didn't I think of that?

The young man's words reminded me in an instant!

I listened to what he said, and my eyes lit up.

His idea is good, anyway, it is fate to be able to live in the same inn!

Nothing was gained from going around the bazaar, but the inn hadn't tried to ask yet.

If the merchants living in the inn happened to sell this, the price might be cheaper than all the ones in the bazaar.

Last night, when I was chatting with the shopkeeper in the inn, I heard some news from the town.

I'm not a trader, but a casual visitor who wants to buy skins to keep out the cold, just so that I can withstand the cold climate when I go to the Northland.

Don't drop the chain halfway down the road, or you'll have to give up.

Now, since the young man brought it up, it means that he can do me a favor.

It's rare that he's so enthusiastic, I'm just a guest at the hotel.

If I were him, I might not be willing to take things on my shoulder, and I felt a little emotional in my heart for a while.

Earlier, I was very impressed by his flexibility.

Such a talkative person is in front, and he will make a round for me to help me with a few words, and I may be able to buy it.

Bulk goods have to be traded, and there is no loss to the businessmen who happen to do a retail business and live in a store!

Heartfelt thumbs up, in my opinion. Anyone who comes up with a good idea is a talented person.

After thinking for a moment, I raised my head and silently exchanged glances with the young man at the inn.

Then, I watched him turn his head sideways and glance around the room of people sitting around the table eating and drinking.

Less. He withdrew his gaze and leaned closer, whispering to me, "To tell you the truth, some of the guests who came at noon were doing business. ”

"They just happened to be transporting goods to Suzhou, but they were genuine furs from the North," the young man paused, stared at the corner of my mouth and continued with a slight smile, "They should stay at the inn for dinner." ”

I rolled my eyes and remembered the conversation I had just heard at a tea stall on the streets of Nanhua Town.

I couldn't hold back at the moment. A few words with the guy in general, especially about the origin of the goods.

For example, the one thing that comes to mind is about the origin of goods. Merchants sell to the south of Zealand and outside under the banner.

The young man listened attentively, and after a moment of silence, he turned to my gaze and said, "That's right, many people do it this way. ”

"Some of the businessmen who passed by us a few years ago came from the north to stay in Nanhua Town." The young man said in a light tone. "They also went to the market, and sold the goods they replenished to the south."

"I'm afraid there will be more this year," the young man thought thoughtfully, bowing his head, "because there are fewer merchants from the Northland, and there are fewer goods. ”

He raised his head and said slowly: "It's the local people who have repeatedly lowered prices. ”

I had already seen their trading in the bazaar, and as soon as the young man's words came out, I immediately continued: "That's right, I have heard with my own ears that the prices offered by the mountain people have been pushed down a lot. ”

We discussed for a while on the ground floor of the inn. The topic returned to the guests that the guy said.

"When you didn't come back just now, I passed on the word for them." He said in a low voice, "These people want to eat the specialties of Nanhua Town, and they have ordered the dishes with the big kitchen." ”

The young man winked at me and said, "They want a few jars of wine, and they will definitely drink it at night." ”

Generally speaking, it is easier to talk when drinking, because the person who drinks alcohol is more likely to be moved when his emotions are released.

The merchants who walked the Northland, which one of them did not have a good amount of wine, so a few people asked for several jars of wine.

The conditions are quite favorable, which is conducive to success.

I nodded knowingly and said to the young man, "I'll come down when it's time for dinner." ”

"When the time comes, remember to help me ask," I asked him, "whether this can be done or not, most of it depends on you." ”

The young man blushed after hearing what I said, turned his face away and lowered his head, "Where is it, you are polite." ”

"By the way," I asked him, remembering another thing, and asked him when I saw that he was about to turn away and go to the large kitchen for the guests in the hall, "don't you have any clues about the thief who came to the inn?" ”

I recalled, and it seemed that the shopkeeper's eyes flashed when he mentioned it, but he didn't tell me what to do with the thief once he was caught.

In retrospect, this is a bit strange!

Because it is usually angry when this kind of thing happens, but their emotions seem a little subtle to me.

My eyes fell on the young man's face and I watched his reaction.

His gaze froze, and he hesitated in his tone to answer me: "It's not that there are no clues, but there are some inside stories that are hard to say!" “

Sure enough, I expected it again!

I didn't have time to start this topic last night, and at this moment the young man looked at me with a look of embarrassment.

I sat up straight and looked at him with a restrained smile.

Listening to his tone, it is clear that there is an insider, and there are even clues I mentioned, why can't you just tell the truth?

I looked at him and asked earnestly, "Does the shopkeeper know, or do you all know?" "Well," the young man was about to answer, when another guest at the table next to him shouted, calling him over.

He quickly turned his head and smiled at the man, then turned to me and said, "I'll tell you more about it when I'm free in the evening." "Okay, you go and do what you have to do first."

I said without hesitation.

Since the guest shouted, he has to be busy with business first, and I am embarrassed to ask more.

Listening to the tone of his voice, I should be able to ask something when we talk in the evening.

It's just that you have to choose the right time. Obviously not right now!

The young man was called away by the guests who were eating in the inn, and after a while he walked through the hall on the ground floor to the large kitchen.

I waited at the table, my eyes following him and disappearing into the aisle next to the wooden staircase. Thinking about it in his heart, it was probably the guest who ordered him to go to the big kitchen to spread the word.

As I expected, it wasn't long before the young man returned.

He hurried, this time holding a tray with steaming bowls of fish noodles.

When he walked up to me, he took a bowl from the tray and handed it to me, "The guest at the door ordered it." I'll give you a copy too. “

I nodded to him, and then watched him walk over to the table and serve it to the guests.

I ate the bowl of strong fish noodles he sent with hot soup, which was delicious and delicious.

I put down my chopsticks. The guests here pay the bill when they leave

I went up the stairs and just happened to pass the people coming down from above, the weird guy again.

Time. The air was a little dull.

I said in my heart that I would meet as soon as I arrived at the inn. Even if the young man had told me that he had been sent by an old friend of the innkeeper to deliver tea, it always felt strange.

I don't think my instincts are likely to go wrong in general.

Although such a person also said that he was the guard of the tea garden, his temperament was really not like that of the guards in ordinary people's homes.

That kind of temperament can obviously be had after a lot of experience.

Even if he was wearing very ordinary clothes, he couldn't hide it!

It's more like my senior brother's subordinates of the Sea Kingdom, who look like they have been on the battlefield.

This time, he didn't look at me deliberately, passed me by in a hurry, and left without any reaction.

Look at the way he looks. I shouldn't have gone downstairs to eat, or I was in a hurry to go out.

I stared at the vanishing back. Turning his head and taking a long breath at the top of the stairs, he adjusted his mood.

After standing for a while, I continued up the wooden staircase to the corridor on the second floor, and soon came to the outside of my room.

Push the door in, and the first thing I do is check it inside.

Looking at each other, it turned out that everything was business as usual, and there was no sign of anyone coming

The tall figure sat outside the teahouse until the man came down from the upper floor.

The young man was far away, and his palms were clenched.

Then he followed the man all the way through the market and into the alley.

The young man waited by the alley for a while, and strangely enough, at this moment, another figure suddenly bumped into him from behind him, and he quickly gave way, and saw that the man had also followed into the alley.

However, when the boy walked to the mouth of the alley and looked ahead, there was no one in the whole alley.

He didn't turn around until this moment and walked forward.

Not worrying about the guy's residence in the town, because he had already inquired about all the inns in the town, and had targeted one of them.

Not surprisingly, it's at that house.

After a while, the tall figure who was also wearing a hat returned to the most lively teahouse in the north of the town.

The boy paused slightly as he was at the door, his eyes scanning the line of people lining up the street below to buy refreshments.

His gaze was fixed for a few seconds, and then he walked towards the teahouse.

Shicai avoided not entering because the teahouse was too small after all, and in such a small place, the person wearing the hat was easy to attract attention.

That guy has an extremely sharp temperament, and he may not be able to see it at a glance.

Who told him to leave in a hurry, and he didn't even have time to carefully pick up his own, not an example.

When the boy reached the second floor of the teahouse, his eyes swept over the room, and suddenly he stopped at a certain table, and then walked over with his gentle steps, and chose a nearby table to sit down.

The aunt at the next table was talking to the group of people who came with her about the past when she lived in Nanhua Town.

A group of people talked with relish, the tea was renewed twice, and even the dim sum was served a second time.

The people chatting with have no bad appetites.

One of them couldn't help but ask: "Aunt Wang, is the one you just walked over to talk to also an old neighbor from the past?" Look at the boy who looks weak and weak? ”

The aunt nodded and smiled: "That's right, it's an old neighbor, and he lives in the same alley." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, the tall young man sitting at the nearby table was stunned for a moment, and looked over through the hat in disbelief.

An old neighbor of Nanhua Town? Or is it in an alley? Why does it sound so weird?

Before he could think about it, the enthusiastic teahouse boy came over to greet him, interrupting his thoughts.

The boy ordered a pot of tea in a low tone, paused for a moment, remembering something, and then added a saucer of their most famous refreshments.

The young man left, and the young man looked down and thought, the confusion in his heart was still there.

Xiaoling, they are obviously talking about him, but when did that guy become a person from Nanhua Town?

How could he not know at all, he clearly remembered that Xiaoling was from the capital of Sealand.

Could it be that the guy lied, and the young man's palms clenched again.

The conversation at the next table continues.

The aunt said to the people who came with me: "I watched Xiaolin's child grow up, but I haven't seen him for several years, and his appearance is not much different from when he was a child." ”

"He also has a twin sister who is quite like him." "At first, I didn't dare to admit it, but I looked at it and felt like it, and after I looked at it for a while, I confirmed that it should be Xiaolin."

"Aunt Wang, what are you talking about" someone next to him said in surprise.

The man was an exception, who knew a little more about the town like his aunt, and had moved to another town a few years earlier.

"Shhh

The eldest aunt glanced around, thought for a while, and added: "His father has already gone south to the south of Zealand, and I heard that his sister went south to look for his father two days ago. ”

"Then why is the kid alone in town?" The companions were puzzled.

"Oh, I asked too," said the eldest aunt, glancing at the people who were with him, "and the boy said that he was too late because his father told him to deliver medicine to a few villagers in the nearby countryside." “

She took a sip of tea and said, "I guess it was taken care of by his father when he left." ”

The people at the same table sighed twice: "It's really kind-hearted." ”

"I heard a few years ago that this doctor in Nanhua Town has a very good heart and excellent medical skills, saying that the mountain people came to see the doctor, and he didn't bring enough money, so he helped pay for the medicine."

Hearing this, the eyes of several of the peers vibrate, and they looked at each other and nodded in unison.

Even if they didn't hear anyone in their company mention it today, Dr. Wu's affairs are more or less known to the neighbors.

"No, he told me, that's why he left a little late," the aunt smiled, paused, and continued, "but the townspeople don't know about his trip to the country, and they think their whole family is gone." ”

The people at the same table glanced at each other, and immediately answered: "Yes, we met those people on the street just now, didn't they all go to Zhendong to see Dr. Liu?" ”

Nanhua Town is small, and there are few doctors, and everyone knows it.

The aunt picked up a piece of dim sum from the plate on the table, and after eating a few bites, she raised her head and explained to them seriously: "Xiaolin's child said that he would leave tomorrow morning, but I don't think it's appropriate. ”
