Chapter 2 Zhifeng's entry into the WTO, the mystery of the bazaar
The late summer of the thirteenth year of Emperor Pingshun of the Great Zhi Kingdom.
Dawang Village, Jiaoyang County, Chengzu County, is a land of thousands of mountains and rivers.
It has been three years since Zhifeng traveled through this world.
"Changsan, a few of you, come here!"
With Zhifeng's loud shout, a few half-sized men with muddy faces came out of the crop fields on the side of the road, put down the farm tools in their hands, and ran with their legs.
After a while, Zhifeng was surrounded by more than a dozen sixteen or seventeen-year-old boys.
"Everyone scraped together 30 wen and asked me to buy three pots of wine, and the sister-in-law of the Chen family in the wine shop returned 5 wen to return the money, and I took two wen for the errand fee. No, there is one more than one article in a pot, oh, there are three articles left, take it away! ”
Hearing that there was still money left after buying the wine, the teenagers laughed, not too dirty, you and I poured it happily.
Zhifeng smiled, "Brothers, a pot of wine is worth nine yuan, three pots are twenty-seven yuan, I will take two yuan, a total of twenty-nine yuan, and who will lose one penny?" ”
These words made all the peasant children stunned for an instant, yes, when I bought wine, I made up 30 yuan, how can I calculate that only 29 yuan has been settled, where is the rest of the big money?
Seeing everyone's confused and confused looks, Zhifeng smiled secretly in his heart, but said in his mouth, "Ladies and gentlemen, count slowly, if you can't figure out why, push 369 with me, and next time you will have to make up the money for this wine!" ”
Running back to his courtyard with a smoke, Zhifeng picked up the unknown beast horn and whined and blew the little song he had compiled, and the music was leisurely.
Wang Niang was cooking hot rice porridge on the stove, chattering to Wang Daddy, "Tomorrow is the market day, hurry up and prepare the dried mountain goods, and bring them to Feng'er in a while, and tonight will be the night road, I guess this time I can sell it at a good price, our pigsty will be repaired, and the chicken coop will also be expanded...".
Wang Niang and Wang Dad have been farmers in the village for generations, there are three girls and one boy in the family, and the youngest son, Zhifeng, is the godboy they rescued from the mountain depression three years ago, but they are not reluctant to take their surnames.
The so-called old man has a son, it is rare not to do it, the child was injured and dying when he was rescued, and the two of them finally saved themselves after three days and four nights.
It is known that Feng himself said that he was an orphan, and he wandered to the mountains and was attacked by wild beasts and almost died.
Now in Wangjia Village, this year's seventeen-year-old half-grown child, taller than the adults in the whole village, except for a slightly thin figure, looks handsome and chic.
"Feng'er eats!" Wang Niang beckoned, took two large bowls full of thick rice porridge, three or four steamed buns and side dishes were placed on the table, watching Zhifeng gobble up, her eyes were full of joy.
The family affection that I didn't enjoy in the previous life, the joy of family, I didn't expect it to be made up in this life! Zhifeng sighed in his heart, shook his head, and smiled, sweet and bitter.
***
Niujiawa, a large town with thousands of households, is located in Jiaoyang County, the three eastern counties of Dazhi Kingdom.
Jiaoyang County, formerly known as Jiaoyang County, has a perennial shortage of water, and the locals have a proverb that says, "Jiaoyang in June, three hundred miles of ripping soil", which refers to the drought here.
But I don't know which county magistrate felt that the name Jiaoyang County was too ugly, so he changed his name to Jiaoyang County. Strange to say, in the decades since the name change, more and more rain has fallen. In particular, Niujiawa has accumulated a natural lake in the past ten years.
Although this lake is not much bigger than the 'Weiming Lake' in the later Beijing University, the people here are very happy, and they love to go around the lake when they have anything to do. As a result, the small traders and merchants had endless business opportunities, and over time they even formed a market every ten days.
Merchants from the south to the north go to Qingcheng, the capital of Dazhi State, Niujiawa is a necessary place, and some fragmentary or difficult goods are also sold in the market.
In the past few years, the market of Niujiawa has developed rapidly, and the hunters of the neighboring towns and even the surrounding counties have come to join in the excitement, and where there are many people, there will be money to make and get rich.
Different from the history that Zhifeng knows, this era is not a dynasty in the annals of history, nor is it a situation of great unification, but a bit similar to the Warring States Seven Heroes and Heroes, which is composed of five countries.
Maybe it's the so-called 'unplanned space'.
After three years, Zhifeng finally knew that the country he was in was called Dazhi Kingdom, which had been established for nearly two hundred years, and the political situation was quite stable.
As for the social situation, according to later generations, the level of development of the productive forces was probably the same as in the Tang and Song dynasties, but the language, especially grammar and pronunciation, was strikingly similar to that of later generations.
However, the shape of the text is completely different, Zhifeng followed the private school in the village for almost three years, and it was only after he basically mastered five, five, six, and six.
It's just that the old gentleman is very puzzled, Zhifeng is obviously illiterate, how can he casually recite a few impressive, even amazingly talented verses?
Approaching noon, saying hello, Zhifeng found his usual place, spread out a bear skin, and put all kinds of mountain goods that Wang Dad picked from the mountains to dry, mushrooms, fungus, mountain ginseng, medicinal materials, and a wide variety of varieties.
Like other vendors, Zhifeng lay under the roots of the tree with his arms on his back, watching the sunlight shine out from the gaps in the branches and leaves.
"Little brother, I want to see this beast horn!" , Hearing a crisp voice in his ears in a daze, Zhifeng hurriedly sat up, and what caught his eye was a smiling and delicate face.
Zhifeng lost his mind in an instant!
The smiling face was hidden little by little, and a touch of coldness rose on his cheeks.
Zhifeng knew that he was stunned, and hurriedly replied with a smile, "That thing I picked up when I was picking up mountain goods in the mountains, and I don't know what animal's antelope horns, I use it to play and kill time on weekdays, is it what the girl said?" ”
"Well, it's ugly, it's a little scary, I've never seen it before, can you let me see it?"
Qing Yue saw that Zhifeng's expression was instantly calm, and she couldn't help but feel a little interested in him.
You must know that many young men who see their appearance for the first time are all stunned and staring at themselves stupidly, and they can't come back to their souls for a long time, and they will be unfavorable when they speak.
I didn't expect those so-called vulgar people in the mountains and wilderness of the elders to adjust so quickly in language and psychology!
In the kung fu of the dialogue, Zhifeng quickly observed and judged some different and usual situations, and his heart was vigilant!
Through this life, Zhifeng seems to have suddenly gained an ability to predict danger, which may be God's compensation for his tragic and humiliating death in his previous life.
The smaller girl next to the girl should be the identity of the maid, the strong man who is separated by three people should be a family general or bodyguard, and the old man who watches the goods at the stall next to him is also a companion, and more than a dozen strong men in Tsing Yi who are ten steps away are all a group of entourage.
These are all that, the rich and noble people of large families travel, and the front and back have a hundred and ten horses are all battles that can be seen from time to time, but a trace of mysterious danger makes the air have an extra stagnant atmosphere, where does it come from?
Quietly, Zhifeng picked up the horn and handed it to the girl, this is a swarthy beast antelope horn, like a bison horn and a rhino horn, its shape is slightly smaller, and the surface is smooth like silk.
The old man next to him turned around and looked at the horn in the girl's hand with interest, and gradually his expression became solemn.
Qingyue raised the horn and found that it seemed to have been artificially chiseled with several round holes, arranged according to a certain pattern, "Did you dig these holes?" Qingyue asked.
"No, pick it up!" , Zhifeng replied as if he was absent-minded, and his eyes no longer fell on Qingyue.
This unreasonable appearance made Qingyue a little unhappy, but she couldn't find a reason to have a seizure, and wanted to put down the horns, but she was reluctant to give up.
After hesitating, the old man leaned over and said, "Miss, let me see." ”
The old man was about fifty years old, dressed in a black shirt, and the scorching sun gave people the impression that it was so hot, and his eagle-like eyes were slightly open and shining.
The moment he took the horn, the old man's face changed greatly, "Where did you come from?" The old man's tone was suddenly unusually solemn!
Hearing the questioning tone of the black-shirted old man, Zhifeng's face turned cold, and he was angry in his heart, according to the words of later generations, who are you, and what do you have to do with me? Why do you ask me with such a condescending tone?
"It seems that there is no need to tell you the old man where it came from, and I don't plan to sell this thing, please return it to me after you take a look!"
After a moment of astonishment, the old man laughed, and said in his heart that the little guy is not big-tempered, and he is also used to his superiors, and he unconsciously brings out a condescending posture when talking to others.
But now my group of people are all in the state of so-called micro-service travel, who knows where we are sacred?
"Little brother, don't disturb, the old man is in a hurry to speak, but since this thing is on the stall, it should be sold, make a price, I want the horns!" , the old man is also a bachelor, and when he speaks, he not only gives Zhifeng face, but also faintly brings out an inviolable momentum.
There is a degree of relaxation, free advance and retreat, not to be underestimated! Zhifeng instantly had an evaluation of the old man in his heart, but he wanted to arrange me with just a few words, and things should not be too simple!
Seeing that the old man suddenly took a stance on the horns of the beast that had been placed in the cargo position for more than a year, but no one cared about it, he knew that there must be a hidden secret.
With a strange feeling in his heart, Zhifeng couldn't help but think of the instructor's words when he was in the special training of the Guwu Annihilation Clan in his previous life, "Eliminating the unknown factors around you is the foundation of the killer's life!" ”。
As much as possible, as accurately as possible, as detailed as possible to grasp the various situations around you, in order to truly become a 'confidant', so as to be invincible.
This sentence has always been regarded by Zhifeng as one of the five famous sayings in life!
But what if the situation is irresistible and there is no time to figure out the hidden worries?
The inheritance that Zhifeng has received is not to fight hard with a swollen face and become fat, but to 'run away if you can't do anything'!
I really can't figure out those hidden factors, flash people, stay away!
On this point, the former Chinese founding leader, the old man's wise saying, explained more incisively, "If you can't beat it, run!" ”。
If something goes wrong, it must be a demon, and the old man and others don't seem to be a good stubble!
Isn't it just a beast's horn, more is better than less, when Zhifeng was about to agree, the old man almost choked his stomach acid out of his words.
"You can open the price, but don't tell anyone that you got this thing, what kind of person bought it, then pack it up, and please take us to the place where the horns were found!"
Zhifeng almost burst into tears, the bazaar is so big, and there are so many people that I can't describe it or two, you asked me not to tell others, pretend that I haven't seen you people? I'll go, don't bring such a trick.
