Ancient buildings, with the exception of a few special ones, such as stupas and the like, are rarely three-storey high. But this restaurant is so high, obviously the owner behind it is very big, and because of this, it is cheaper for Hu Guang, and he can see the movement in the entire Zhangjiakou Castle, at least in the direction of this private room.

Hu Guang took out the monocular he was carrying, adjusted the focus, hid behind the window, and slowly looked around the city.

He found that there were several houses in the city that covered a very wide area, and it was estimated that the owner there was in Zhangjiakou Castle, which was definitely very promising.

In particular, the big mansion in the city is not only the largest, but also very well guarded. In broad daylight, you can see the nursing home patrolling around the area, as if it were wartime.

In addition, there are individual warehouses in front of which there are ox carts pulling and unloading. Quite a few guys sweated and carried bags of goods inside. Hu Guang can estimate that what is in it is grain.

Hu Guang looked around, and after knowing the situation in the city, he returned to his seat.

The guards were already eating and drinking, and they were not small, which was a kind of cover. However, those who sang outside couldn't see what the people inside were doing because the curtain was lowered.

Li Dingguo leaned over Hu Guang's side and asked in a careful low voice, "Master, how is it?" ”

Hu Guang looked back at him, smiled slightly, just stretched out his hand and handed over the binoculars, and then whispered: "You go and see for yourself, tell me how you feel when you go back, pay attention to cover your body, don't let people see you snooping around." ”

As soon as Li Dingguo heard this, he knew that the chief was going to test himself. Not only was he not afraid, but there was a sense of excitement in his heart, so he immediately nodded in agreement, took the telescope and went to the window to observe.

And Hu Guang himself ate and drank with the guards. It's a good idea to spend so much money. It's a pity not to eat.

About half an hour later, Hu Guang breathed out the smell of wine, called the singing woman in, said that she sang well, and gave a heavy reward on the spot.

When the woman thanked her, Hu Guang stood up. walked to the open window and said: "Little lady, the scenery here is very good, would you like to introduce one or two to this son?" ”

One of the biggest features of this third floor is that it is the commanding height of the whole city, which is a unique scenery. When ordinary people come for the first time, they will also be curious about their surroundings, and it is common to have similar requirements from Hu Guang.

Therefore, the singing woman did not shirk. He immediately came over and took on the role of a tour guide.

Hu Guang asked a few places without a trace, especially the heavily guarded mansion, and soon knew what to expect.

He had been in the restaurant for more than an hour, and he felt that staying any longer might make people suspicious, so Hu Guangcai led his men and left under the congratulations of Xiao Er.

After leaving the Drunken Eight Immortals, he didn't go back immediately. Instead, I went to a few key stores before going back.

At this time, it is already approaching the western mountains. The day is going to be over again. An Yue and Kang Quanan also entered the door with their front and back feet, and when they saw Hu Guang coming back, they all came to greet him.

It can be seen that Kang Quanan and An Yue are both more happy to shop. An Yue, in particular, seemed even more excited, chattering with Hu Guang about her discovery.

"Eun Gong. I didn't expect there to be any goods here, onions, garlic, sauce, vinegar tea, cattle, horses, sheep, pigs and dogs, silk and satin, ......"

An Yue may really have a talent for business, she even told all the goods she had seen, and even pointed out what flaws there were in those goods, or whether those goods were more expensive or cheaper than those in Jingshizhong, and so on.

She spoke for a long time. In the end, he sighed: "I just didn't expect that this is the closest trading point to the grassland, but the price of cattle and horses is not cheap at all, and it is in short supply!" ”

When Hu Guang heard this, his heart moved, and he immediately asked her: "Has the price of cattle and horses always been so expensive?" ”

"Not really!" An Yue shook his head and said, "At that time, the slave family was also puzzled, so they asked about the previous price. It is said that it was not so expensive before, but recently someone has been buying a large number of them, and it has risen a lot. The Mongols outside the pass have made a lot of money recently, and they have driven a lot of cattle and horses over several times in a row. Next, they probably won't come over for a while, and it may be impossible to collect more cattle and horses. ”

Her interest was obviously not here, but she immediately suggested to Hu Guang: "Engong, if the slave family brings some goods from Jingshi, such as ......, the money earned will be taken from here ......."

Hu Guang listened to her happily talk about her business experience, and did not interrupt her, until she stopped by herself, and then smiled and said: "Your idea is very good, and when you have a chance in the future, maybe it will be okay." ”

An Ping has been waiting on the side for a long time, but he didn't expect his sister to say that he had been waiting for so long, so he took this opportunity to secretly pull his sister's sleeve, and then said to Hu Guang: "Engong, my sister is very energetic when she hears about making money, and she will disturb your rest!" ”

An Yue originally didn't care about her brother saying that she was making money, but after listening to her brother's next sentence, she realized that she seemed to be too excited, so she was embarrassed to say goodbye to her brother and leave.

As soon as their siblings left, their own guards looked out of the room. Hu Guang turned around and looked at Li Dingguo and said: "I went out for a day today, watching and listening, have you gained anything?" ”

As soon as Li Dingguo heard this, he knew that the chief was testing himself, and after sorting out his thoughts a little, he replied to Hu Guangdao seriously: "The eight major Jin merchants in the city are all preparing for the sale of materials to Jianyu, and the cattle and sheep that Sister An Yue said are eight or nine times out of ten bought by the eight major Jin merchants......

Hu Guang nodded approvingly and continued to listen to Li Dingguo's analysis.

"There must be a lot of goods prepared by the eight Jin merchants this time, because the oxen and horse carts they originally had were not enough, so they would buy cattle and horses to pull them again."

After Li Dingguo said this, he stopped, and added after a while: "Also, the upper room of this Fulin Inn has been used up a lot, which shows that those who sold to the Eight Great Jin Merchants must be very rich, and there will be no shortage of things sold!" ”

Seeing that Li Dingguo stopped again, Hu Guang asked with a smile, "Is there anything else?" ”

Kang Quanan and the other guards in several rooms all looked at Li Dingguo with a little curiosity, not knowing how many things he could sum up at such a young age.

Li Dingguo lowered his head and thought about it for a while, but he really came up with something, and immediately replied: "Also, that Fan Yongdou must have done business with Jianyu for a long time and made a lot of money." Not only is the largest inn in the city his, but the largest restaurant today is also his property. He has the largest house in the city, and he employs so many nurses, he must be very rich! ”

After he finished speaking, he saw that Hu Guang was still looking at him, as if waiting for him to say the following, so he said with a little embarrassment: "No, I ...... That's all I can think of! (To be continued.) )
