Wujiang County, is the place where Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, killed himself, used to be called Wujiang Pavilion, Taikang of the Western Jin Dynasty officially established the county in six years, it belongs to Huainan County of Yangzhou, the first year of Yongxing of the Western Jin Dynasty, the imperial court divided the Wujiang River and Liyang two counties were established as Liyang County, Wujiang County has since been subordinate to the rule of Liyang County, and has continued until the era of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

Gao Fei and Jia Liu entered Wujiang County together, different from the bleak scene outside the city, the city was very lively, there were many vendors on both sides of the road, all kinds of shouting and selling were endless, and all kinds of passers-by shuttled back and forth on the road, which seemed particularly crowded.

Gao Fei stared intently ahead, as if a picture scroll about the livelihood of the people in the ancient city was slowly unfolding, and this scene suddenly reminded Gao Fei of "Qingming Riverside Map".

Due to too many pedestrians on the road, Jia Liu was inconvenient to walk in a donkey cart, so he had to jump off the donkey cart, looked at the overcrowded street in front of him, and said suspiciously: "Hey, what day is today, why are there so many people, it wasn't like this two days ago?" ”

Gao Fei asked, "Uncle Liu, where is the pharmacy?" ”

Jia Liudao: "Keep going along this road, turn right at the second intersection, and then walk three more intersections to arrive." It's just that I didn't expect that there would be so many people in the city today, you see the road ahead is crowded, and our donkey cart is afraid that it will not be easy to pass......"

"Uncle Liu, I'll just go over by myself!"

Gao Fei jumped down directly from the donkey cart and bowed to Jia Liu, and then said, "Uncle Liu, you can wait for me here, I'll come back when I go." ”

After saying this, Gao Fei didn't wait for Jia Liu to respond, turned around and ran towards the city.

Jia Liu wanted to stop it, but there was still a donkey cart beside him, so he shouted at Gao Fei: "Yu'er, don't run around, come back quickly, wait for Liubo to find a place to tie the donkey cart and go with you to catch medicine......

Although Gao Fei was small, his hands and feet were nimble, and he disappeared into the crowd with a stroke of smoke, and Jia Liu could only look through it, and he couldn't find any trace of Gao Fei, so he decided to stay here and wait for Gao Fei to come back.

Although Wujiang County is not big, it is still a little unfamiliar to Gao Fei who has just arrived here, and there are many people on the streets today, after Gao Fei got rid of Jia Liu, he walked in the direction of the pharmacy according to the road pointed out by Jia Liu.

Of course, Gao Fei came to grab the medicine this time, not really to catch the medicine, but just a pretense. The purpose of his trip was only one, that is, to think that the refined salt he had refined would cause an uproar in Wujiang County.

Originally, Gao Fei could not have mixed this matter, but during the day yesterday, Jia Liu's son Jia Cheng was locked out of the door by his mother, and Jia Cheng was idle, so he came to Gao Fei to play together. Although Jia Cheng is two years older than Gao Fei, for a person with a mental age of thirty, Jia Cheng is just a little kid.

It happened that Gao Fei was also very curious about how Jia Liu sold salt when he went to the county seat and how much he sold it, so he tried to get words from Jia Cheng's mouth. Originally, he just had the mentality of trying it out, but who knew that Jia Cheng happened to know about it, so he told his father about selling salt in the county.

After Gao Fei learned that Jia Liu directly sold salt to a large family and got thirty big money, he immediately felt that Jia Liu was a short-sighted person. A stone sinking into the sea can also stir up a little waves, originally expected Jia Liu to be able to use these two catties of refined salt to make a sensation in the county, who knew that Jia Liu was so uncompromising, not only did he not make a sensation, but he didn't even hear the sound, and it didn't circulate in the market at all, so that his two catties of refined salt were wasted.

For this reason, Gao Fei decided to personally take the refined salt to the county seat, ready to make a sensation.

In order to confuse Jia Liu, Gao Fei decided to grab the medicine first, and he followed the path pointed out by Jia Liu and went directly to the pharmacy.

Gao Fei arrived at the pharmacy, opened his mouth and shouted inside: "Boss, grab me some cheapest medicine!" ”

The guy in the pharmacy was working, and when he heard the voice, he turned his head and looked over, and found that the store was empty, and there was no one, he couldn't help frowning, and said to himself: "It's strange, I heard someone talking just now, why didn't I see anything?" ”

The counter of the pharmacy is about one and a half meters high, maybe it is because of the poor living conditions in ancient times, malnutrition or something, Gao Fei's height is not even one meter, he stands under the counter and shouts, and the people inside look out, as if they don't see people.

Goofy raised his hand high, still not reaching the top of the counter, so he knocked on the counter with his fist, making a muffled "knock knock" sound.

When the man heard the voice, he poked his head out of the counter, and saw Goofy standing there, dressed in a very cheap fabric, and remembered what he had just heard, so he asked, "You were shouting just now?" ”

Gao Fei nodded and said, "I'll grab the medicine, grab some of the cheapest medicine for me." ”

"Kids! You can't take medicine indiscriminately, good medicine is not cheap, cheap medicine is not good, come and let me see what disease you have, I will prescribe the right medicine! "The guy is an apprentice, and he knows a little bit about medicine and pharmacology, and he pretended to say.

Gao Fei said: "I don't have a sick ......"

"I'm not sick, what kind of medicine are you grabbing, go and go, while playing, I still have a lot of things to do, I don't have time to mess around with you little brat!"

"Who's messing around with you? Who said that if you are not sick, you can't grab medicine? Wouldn't you just grab me some cheap medicine? Goofy said impatiently.

The guy glanced at Gao Fei, and didn't want to say more, so he spread his hand forward and asked, "What about the prescription?" ”

"If you don't have a prescription, you can just get me the cheapest medicine!" High Flying Road.

The guy seemed to be unable to pass Gao Fei with Chengxin, shook his head and said, "The pharmacy has rules, and you can't just grab the medicine without a prescription." ”

"What kind of rule is this?"

"The rules of the pharmacy!"

At this time, a young man dressed in a robe and wearing a scarf walked into the pharmacy, handed a piece of paper to the counter of the pharmacy, and said gently: "Brother Lao grabs the medicine according to this prescription. ”

The man picked up the piece of paper and glanced at it hurriedly, then turned around and busied around the pharmacy, and after a while, he had all the medicines, and then said to the man with a smile: "The medicine is complete, a total of one big money, six small dollars." ”

The man took out two big coins and put them on the counter, and after the guy accepted them, he took out four small coins and handed them to the man, and said with a smile: "Childe, this is looking for your money, four small coins, you can check it." ”

The man took the change from the man's hand, left the pharmacy with the medicine, and the man watched the man leave.

Gao Fei paid attention to this transaction throughout the whole process, and it is not difficult to find from the conversation between the two that the money in this era is divided into big money and small money, and one big money is worth ten small dollars. He remembered that Jia Liu had wanted to buy his refined salt for ten small dollars, and suddenly felt that Jia Liu was too picky.

"Brother Lao also grabbed a piece of medicine for me according to the prescription of the person just now!" Goofy opened his voice and shouted at the guy at the counter.

The guy poked his head out again, and when he saw Goofy, he asked, "Why haven't you left yet?" Get out of here quickly, and stop messing around here, or don't blame me for being unkind. ”

"You opened the door for business, I came to grab the medicine, why didn't you arrest me? Are you afraid that I won't give you money? Gao Fei took out two big coins and showed them in front of the guy, "You give me the same medicine as the person just now, and you don't need to look for the rest of the change, I will reward you!" ”

No one wants to have trouble with money, and the guy at this pharmacy is no exception, he looked around thiefly, but didn't find anyone else, so he stopped at Gao Fei and asked, "Is this true?" ”

"The money will be given to you first, you can just give me a pack of medicine!" Gao Fei directly threw the two big coins to the counter, and the guy caught them, stuffed the big money into his pocket, and then picked up a pack of medicine and handed it to Gao Fei.

Gao Fei took the medicine and left, and when he left, he didn't forget to scold: "Dogs look down on people!" ”

The guy was angry and annoyed, but before he could chase him out of the pharmacy, Goofy had already disappeared without a trace.

I've got the medicine, but I haven't done it yet. Gao Fei thought that if he wanted to make a sensation about salt, the first place to go would definitely be the salt market. However, the government has always forbidden the sale of salt and iron without permission, and once discovered, they will be killed, which is the crime of losing their heads.

Gao Fei's face was full of sadness, walking aimlessly on the street, and suddenly he felt that he was thinking about everything too simply, the background of the times was different, and the way of survival was naturally different.

And he is still a child in the eyes of outsiders, which makes it even more difficult for him to succeed, just ask, who would want to believe what a five-year-old child says?

Gao Fei walked for a while, feeling a little tired, so he sat on the steps on the side of the road to rest, but unexpectedly found that there were several shops selling salt on the other side of the road.

He looked around, and then he noticed that a sign engraved with the word "Yanshi" was behind him on the left.

Goofy sat there resting and observing, and he found that the so-called salt market here was completely different from what he had imagined. He always thought that the salt and iron were in the official camp, so the salt seller must also be an official, but through his careful observation, it was actually not what he imagined.

In this small salt market, there are as many as four salt sellers, and among these four salt sellers, only one has a sign on the door of the house that says "Official Salt", while the other three are different, and the plaques on the doors of their shops say "Li's Salt Shop", "Zhao's Salt Shop" and "Guo's Salt Shop" respectively.

Whenever someone comes to buy salt, they will first go to the shop with the word "official salt" written on it, and then go to Li's salt shop, Zhao's salt shop, and Guo's salt shop to compare, whether it is in terms of price or the purity of salt, the three salt shops of Li's, Zhao's, and Guo's will always be better than the official salt's, so every time people come, they don't buy salt in the official salt shop, but choose one of the three salt shops of Li's, Zhao's and Guo's.

Since the Li family, the Zhao family, and the Guo family can all open a salt shop so blatantly, wouldn't he also be able to open a salt shop on the side?

As soon as he thought of this, Goofy immediately regained his combat effectiveness, he stood up first, patted the dirt on his buttocks, and then walked towards the salt market opposite, wanting to see the quality of the salt in these four salt shops.
