Chapter 306: Make a Deal

When Xuan Shaoning passed by the place where Leng Yuezhai used to be, what he could see was no longer the most prestigious place of evolution in the capital, all that remained was a dangerous building, a dangerous building full of arrows, most of the doors and windows had been lost, and those that were still left shivered and moaned in the cold wind.

Originally, this area was the most lively place in the fireworks and willow alleys in the capital, but now after a heavy snowfall, there are few people and it is no longer prosperous. At the beginning, Yinfeng Pavilion on the opposite side of Leng Yue had always been competing with Leng Yuezhai openly and secretly, they wanted to steal the limelight, Leng Yuezhai fell It stands to reason that Yinfeng Pavilion should be the most happy, but unfortunately the reality slapped them in the mouth.

The two most powerful places competed with each other to attract enough people, and when one of them fell, especially after it was encircled and suppressed by the imperial court, it left behind ruins and the ghosts of those who died. Without competitors, the business of Yinfeng Pavilion is not as good as before, not to mention the newcomers, even the old customers choose to take a detour and never step into Yinfeng Pavilion again, leaving those little guys to sit in front of the door bored.

"This is not the Leng Yue Zhai we are familiar with at all, but you can imagine how fierce the battle here was at the beginning." Duan Lang said with regret and regret.

"We'd better find an inn to stay in, and don't linger on the streets." Xuan Shaoning was also unwilling to see Leng Yuezhai's bleak end, he forced himself to think about the plan to rescue Chu Hanqian.

"And what about that brother of yours?" Shen Ming asked.

Xuan Shaoning glanced around and said, "Xie Yu has always been cautious and cautious in doing things, there must be a reason for him to ask for this." I'd better go on my own. ”

"Brother Xuan!" Xuan Shaoning stopped Rouge in time, "Don't worry, Xie Yu, haven't you seen it, you know what kind of person he is, I'll be fine, you still stay in the inn." I'm not Xuan Shaoning at the moment, I'm a dealer from Mobei. ”

"Time is limited, you go early and return early, we will go to the inn first and wait for you."

Xuan Shaoning nodded at Shen Ming with his felt hat neat, and headed towards the most lively Shang Workshop in the national area, where there will be a large-scale temple fair before the annual New Year's Festival, and merchants from all over the world will take the opportunity to enter the capital to make a big profit.

The temple fair lasts for about ten days every year, and this year's time has not changed anything, Xuan Shaoning still remembers that the annual temple fair is called a lively, crowded with people, shoulder to shoulder, he has been there a few times, and each time he is squeezed dizzy, but Xuan Shaoning just likes this feeling, which makes him experience the down-to-earth human touch. Isn't this the festival supposed to be so lively? Isn't this temple fair supposed to be so crowded? Otherwise, where does the taste of the New Year come from?

Along the way, Xuan Shaoning sighed that he had come to join in the fun before, but now he has become an authentic dealer, looking at these skins on his back, Xuan Shaoning couldn't help but smile. With a task in place, these skins are not important at all, and they will be sold directly later, which will definitely attract a lot of people to come and buy them. Being a businessman for the first time in his life, Xuan Shaoning couldn't help but feel a little looking forward to it.

When I arrived at the temple fair, the number of people was not as many as I imagined, although there were still a lot of people hanging out, but there was still a lot of gap compared with the noisy scene in my memory. With a little regret, Xuan Shaoning slowly paced at the temple fair, looking at the surrounding vendors while looking for a location.

This location is not a random search, Xuan Shaoning still remembers that Xie Yu clearly stated the place of meeting in the letter. After walking for a while, Xuan Shaoning relied on his memory to find the place where they agreed to meet-Baile Hall. This is a century-old shop, from the time of the opening of a large number of dynasties, it chose a piece of land here in Xuancheng to open a small face pastry shop, this business has continued for nearly a hundred years, and the descendants are said to have reached the fifth generation.

Xuan Shaoning knew that this Baile Tang was the most famous pastry shop in the capital, and the store had a lot of vicissitudes after a hundred years, but everything was tried to maintain its original appearance, especially the pastry that inherited the taste of the beginning. The old people in the capital praised the Baile Hall when they mentioned it, and they all praised the taste of the pastry as if it had not changed at all, and it was as delicious as when they were children.

Standing in front of this century-old store, Xuan Shaoning suddenly had an impulse to enter the store to choose some pastries to bring back to Rouge, she would definitely like it. This thought came to mind for the first time, and Xuan Shaoning himself was a little surprised, and the first thing that came to mind when he encountered delicious food would be rouge instead of Yunxuan.

"Oops, I'm here on a mission!" Xuan Shaoning patted his head, "When the matter is done, it's not too late to buy it!" So he crouched down at a street corner near the Hundred Music Hall, spread the skins on his back on the ground, and began to look around without shouting.

"Xie Yu must have something wrong, otherwise he wouldn't have been in contact for so long, and he wouldn't have come to Mobei, and there is no need to be so careful to agree to meet in a place like a temple fair. What the hell is going on? What about Xing Gang, where is he, why doesn't Xie Yu mention Xing Gang in his letters? ”

Xuan Shaoning thought about the whole thing back and forth, and the more he thought about it, the more mysteries appeared, and these mysteries could only be answered by waiting for Xie Yu to appear. In order to make himself look more like a peddler, Xuan Shaoning began to shout like other vendors a little awkwardly, but his voice was so small that only he could hear it.

This stop was a few hours, seeing that the sky was gradually darkening, the number of people who came to visit the temple fair gradually decreased, and those vendors also began to close their stalls, Xuan Shaoning's heart began to get anxious. Why hasn't Xie Yu shown up yet? This is more than the agreed time.

Just when Xuan Shaoning turned his head and was patrolling back and forth, a common man walked to Xuan Shaoning's stall and began to squat down and pick these skins, and asked casually while selecting: "Is this skin an authentic product from Mobei?" How do you sell it? ”

Xuan Shaoning didn't come to do business, and he hadn't thought about the price before, but when he was asked like this, he thought that he still left some details behind, so he had to make it up: "This is the skin of the authentic Mobei, I am the herdsman of Mobei, this skin is to ....... One tael of silver! ”

"Oh? Are you telling the truth? The person who picked suddenly raised his head and looked at Xuan Shaoning with inquiring eyes, he was sincere, but at the same time, he also felt that this vendor was making fun of himself.

At the same time as this person raised his head, Xuan Shaoning let out a cold sweat, hurriedly lowered the felt hat on his head, and then deliberately adjusted his voice and replied: "Of course! If you can't afford it, you can go to another place! ”

The person who can make Xuan Shaoning so surprised is Yang Jing, he hasn't appeared for a long time, maybe many people are about to forget him, he is the captain under Ou Luyang, the commander of the Golden Armor Guard in the Xuanjia Army. Since Ou Luyang took a team of warriors of the Golden Armor Guard to the Divine Killing Cavalry, he has been following him, what military rank is now, Xuan Shaoning doesn't know, what he only knows at present is that fortunately, when they were in the military camp together, they didn't meet many times, and Yang Jing shouldn't be very familiar with him.

"This kind of leather costs at least three taels of silver a piece in this season, are you sure you didn't quote the wrong price?" Yan Yangjing lowered his head and began to look at Xuan Shaoning's face, "Or are you not really the stall owner who quoted the price indiscriminately?" ”

Xuan Shaoning really regretted that his intestines were blue, such an important detail was missed by himself, and he was about to have a flaw. At this time, an old man leaned over and picked up a piece of skin, touched it, and then said: "Oh, this dealer still has a conscience, these are shoddy skins, not the kind that Mobei is good, and it is suitable to sell it for one or two silver." ”

Yang Jing looked at this old man who didn't look amazing, and Xuan Shaoning also raised his head slightly to look at him, and he immediately recognized it at this glance! The old man smiled and said to Yang Jing: "This must be an official, right?" Just look at your temperament, these skins are not good goods, and they are not worthy of the official. ”

"I've been in Mobei for so many years, what skin is good, can I not know?" Yang Jing asked rhetorically.

The old man tore open a piece of skin with a strong hand, revealing some thatch-like things inside, and said to Yang Jing: "Official, this skin is not genuine!" ”

Yang Jing finally believed the old man, turned back to Xuan Shaoning and said: "People say that you have to keep your eyes open when you come to the temple fair, and sure enough, you are not wrong, you are really a profiteer!" Yang Jing threw down the skin, turned his head and left.

When Yang Jing had walked far enough, Xuan Shaoning dared to raise his head completely and said to the old man gratefully: "You are really too timely, Uncle Zhang!" ”
