The next morning, the ship came to a slow stop at the dock.

There are many boats coming and going on the river, and many wharves have been built along the way for boats to rest and buy.

In addition to the coolies who carry things, there are more hawkers on the docks. There are also some shrewd merchants who have built neat shops not far from the wharf, or sell some local specialties, or tea, silk, satin, porcelain, etc., and rouge gouache shops are indispensable.

"Cousin Shu, let's go to the shop over there and have a look." Ling Jingyan said excitedly.

Even if she got off the boat to relax, Ling Jingshu didn't want to spoil the fun, so she smiled and nodded.

Uncle Ling and Sun didn't get off the boat, but the juniors couldn't hold it back and got off the boat together. Girls who have not left the pavilion should not show their heads, Ling Jingshu and Ling Jingyan both put on their hats. Jiang also wore a hat.

However, the group is still very eye-catching.

Ling Ji is tall and heroic, and he is very eye-catching in the crowd. Ling Xiao's unusually delicate and beautiful face also attracted everyone's attention. The tall Jiang family exudes the charm of a young woman in her gestures. The pretty and lovely Ling Jingyan laughed like a silver bell. Not to mention Ling Jingshu, who is alluring.

The thin light veil on the hat only vaguely concealed the face, but could not hide the touching beauty.

The coolie vendors on the docks, who had never seen such a beautiful girl, couldn't help but look at them frequently.

Fortunately, Ling Ji deliberately brought more than a dozen sturdy family members to firmly surround Ling Jingshu and the others in the middle. Everyone looked at each other a few times, and after the eyes, they retracted their gaze with interest.

After a few days on the boat, once you set foot on the flat ground, you walk a little softly, which is quite unaccustomed.

Ling Xiao held Ling Jingshu's hand tightly and whispered excitedly, "Ashu, it's so lively here." "There was a lot of noisy talking, mixed with the loud shouts of the vendors, and it was really interesting to listen to.

Ling Jingshu glanced around, and sighed a little in her heart: "Yes, it's really lively!" ”

Not to mention that Ling Xiao had never seen it, how could she have experienced such a landscape.

At that time, she was raised in a deep boudoir, and then married far away to Jizhou. From one delicate cage to another, more delicate one.

When she and Lu Hong had the strongest relationship, it was also when Lu Hong studied hard and prepared for the township exam, and she had no time to take her on a trip. Later, she became pregnant and gave birth to a child, so she had to stay in the Lu family honestly. Later, she was placed under house arrest and couldn't even get out of the courtyard gate

Ling Jingshu didn't want to think about these painful pasts, so she quickly opened the topic: "There is a shop that sells the four treasures of the study, I'll accompany you to take a look!" ”

As long as you are a reader, you can't leave the four treasures of the study. Although Ling Xiao was blind and inconvenient to read, his love for the four treasures of the study was not affected at all. Hearing this, he immediately responded with a smile.

Ling Jingshu smiled again and asked Ling Jingyan and Jiang, "Are you also coming along?" ”

Ling Jingyan hurriedly responded: "Sister-in-law and I will go to the fat powder shop to have a look, anyway, the two shops are not far away, and we will meet again later." ”

Ling Jingyan had already said this, and the Jiang family was inconvenient to disobey her sister-in-law's wishes, and echoed with a smile: "Let's divide the army into two ways." To be on the safe side, let half of the family follow you. When we're done, we'll go to you. ”

That's fine.

Ling Jingshu nodded, took Ling Xiao's hand, followed by five or six family members, and walked into the Four Treasures Shop of the Study Room together.

The two sisters and brothers entered the shop.

A thin beggar squatting not far from the shop stared at Ling Jingshu's figure, and a trace of amazement and greed flashed in his eyes

The beggar was about twenty years old, with a slender face and a lame leg. Begging at this pier.

The man who begged for a living on the dock was accustomed to seeing such a beggar, and no one paid attention to him.

The lame beggar quietly got up and left, turning into the alley on the other side of the dock. After entering the alley, the lame beggar walked much faster, and the neatness was staggering.

The lame beggar stopped in front of a low house and knocked on the door with a special technique, knocking three times before the door opened.

The one who opened the door was a sturdy man with a scar on his face: "Cripple, you didn't keep an eye on the fat sheep on the dock, why did you run back early?" ”

The lame man replied excitedly, "I came back to report the news." What about the second family? ”

The man with the scar cursed a swear word: "The second master slept with two fans last night and was still asleep in bed." I'm not going to touch this mold. ”

The lame man is responsible for keeping an eye on the fat sheep on weekdays, because his vision is vicious and accurate, and he is quite important. Hearing this, he replied with a smile: "I found a really good product this time." If the report is late and delayed, the big boss and the second boss will be blamed at that time, but I can't be blamed. ”

The man with the scar glared at the lame man and reluctantly went into the back room to call for someone.

After a while, the second master came out.

The scar man is already very strong, this second master is half a head taller than the scar man, a pair of triangular eyes flashing fiercely, and it is intimidating to stand there.

The second master asked impatiently: "Cripple, you said that you found a real good product, what does it look like?" If you lift your hat and look pockmarked like last time, you don't need to make a big move, I will tear you alive! ”

In front of the arrogant and murderous second master, the lame man suddenly became much more honest, and hurriedly said with a smile: "Second master, please rest assured, I will never look away this time." The pair of sisters and brothers are about the same age, they should be twin brothers and sisters, and they are only fourteen or fifteen years old. The girl wore a hood and couldn't see her face clearly, but when she looked at it from a distance, she knew that she was a rare and stunning beauty. That young man is also a first-class good look. ”

When the second master heard that it was a beauty, he was immediately interested, but he scolded in his mouth: "Through the hat, how do you know that it is a stunning beauty." If not, I'll gouge out your dog's eyes. ”

"Second master, you just believe me this time!" The lame man swore and said: "I have been staring at it for the past few years, and I have indeed seen it, but this time I will never be wrong." If you go away, you don't have to do it in the second place, I will dig up these tricks myself. ”

"I've made a note of what that official ship looks like. We also followed our old method and secretly followed for a day or two. When I found a secluded place in the river, I got on the boat in the middle of the night, grabbed someone and left. ”

Such a stunning girl from an official eunuch family can be exchanged for a hundred fine war horses if she snatches them and sells them to the barbarians in Saibei. Once it changes hands again, it is a huge profit of tens of thousands of taels.

and that beautiful boy, who is also a rare good product.

If this vote is successful, the huge profit will be enough to make people risk being beheaded.
