Xue Wu couldn't figure out what this person was going to do.

Was it because he was afraid that she would tell his secret, so he came to keep an eye on her? But you don't need him to come in person, do you?

She regretted it now, why did she have a hot brain yesterday, and wanted to unmask him to see what he really looked like.

It's a good thing now, I didn't see his true face, but I was entangled by him.

"I just finished the business at hand, I came out for a walk and relax, who would have thought that it would be such a coincidence that I met Miss Zhao, which shows that the two of us are very fateful."

Xue Wan: I'm afraid it's a bad fate.

Although I didn't feel any malice from this person, it wasn't a problem to be followed by him like this.

There was a croquette stall not far away, and she moved in her heart and walked over, "Boss, bring me three strings of meatballs, one string of fish balls, and two strings of meatballs." ”

"Holo."

Xue Wu got the pills and was about to pay for them, so Huo Kang took the initiative to pay the money.

As a result, when he turned around, the person who was still standing beside him disappeared.

Huo Kang was not surprised, and even showed a smile in her eyes, it would be strange if she really let him follow and do nothing.

On the corner of the street, Xue Wu chewed a ball with relish, looked at the man she left in place from a distance, and smiled proudly, hum, look at how you are going to follow this time!

As soon as he turned around, the man who was still in the distance was already standing in front of him!

Xue Wu almost choked, "You-"

Huo Kang stroked her back, as if what she left behind had never happened at all, "What else does Miss Zhao want to eat?" ”

It seems that this man has made up his mind to follow her.

Forget it, let him follow if he wants to, and she just tries to ignore him.

Xue Wu ignored him and changed directions.

Huo Kang held one hand behind him and followed her leisurely.

Like a dutiful husband who accompanies his wife shopping.

Xue said that she was ignoring Huo Kang, but in fact, she couldn't do it at all, because this person has a strong sense of existence, and he is especially good at brushing his sense of existence, reminding her to pay attention to her feet for a while, and helping her avoid the children who collide with her for a while.

It's like being possessed by the boss.

However, Xue Wu was not moved by his methods, hmph, my aunt and grandmother are not the kind of little girls who have no knowledge, I can do it myself, and I don't need you to be attentive at all.

After shopping for a day and buying N more local products, Xue Wu finally returned home satisfied.

Huo Kang also followed her back to the inn.

Xue Wan glanced at him, "Is it possible that Huo Gongzi still wants to follow me in?" ”

The corners of Huo Kang's lips hooked, "That's not it, but I also happen to live here." ”

Oh, that's a coincidence.

After the jade festival, it is the much-anticipated gambling stone conference.

The gambling stone conference is well-known to the whole people in Yujing City, and even many outsiders rushed to participate.

Xue Wu felt that if she went to participate by herself, she would really bully people, so she didn't sign up, but she didn't miss the excitement.

And Tang Yu and Zheng Feibai she knew were all contestants, so she had to cheer for them and cheer them on.

The gambling stone conference was hosted by the Jade Chamber of Commerce in Yujing City, and everyone who signed up had to pay a registration fee of ten taels of silver, and the Chamber of Commerce could make a lot of money just for this one.

As for the jadeite wool used in the competition, they are all sponsored by each shop for free. It stands to reason that since it is sponsored for free, it is tantamount to spending a sum of money for nothing, but there are still countless merchants rushing to ask for this sponsorship, why?

If you can get a sponsorship place, it is equivalent to promoting your shop for free, and the traffic brought by the time will definitely earn back this sponsorship fee.

Xue Yu and Tang Yu went to the competition venue together.

She thought that Huo Kang would follow, but he didn't show up.

While she breathed a sigh of relief, there was a faint sense of loss in her heart.

Did she want him to follow her? Ah, this is by no means her, she is not such a hypocritical woman!

The competition venue is located in the square in front of the Jade Temple, and in the center of the square, a four-sided ventilation shed has been erected, each shed represents a business, and there is a signboard hanging on the outside. In the shed, there are a lot of wool.

On the periphery of the square, there are crowds of people, crowded with circles and circles, all of whom come to see the excitement.

The restaurants and teahouses on the street have all occupied their places early. Others climbed directly into the trees and looked down.

In order not to disturb the contestants, a wooden fence with a height of one person was enclosed around the square, and there were people from the government to maintain order in the fence to prevent anyone from running into the stadium to make trouble.

The contestants meet on the other side.

On the north side of the square is a table with a nameplate engraved on each table, which is for the judges to sit on.

It's not yet time for the official competition, so none of the heavyweights have appeared.

In the corner of the square, under a big tree, behind the table sat the organizers, and next to it stood a sign that read "Registration Office".

You can register before the start of the competition.

After all, every time one more person signs up, they can earn an extra ten taels of silver.

"Hurry up if you want to sign up! The race is a quarter of an hour away! ”

"The jadeite that the contestants bet on during the competition will all belong to the contestants!"

"Don't miss the time again, everyone must hurry!"

Xue Wu, who originally planned to find a good position to watch the game, was stunned when she heard this.

The jadeite that the contestant bets on during the competition will all belong to the contestant?

So there is still this one?

Xue Wu had to admit that she was shamefully moved.

Just now, she subconsciously swept around with her divine sense, but she found several pieces of superb jade in the field!

Xue Wu walked over and took out ten taels of silver, "I want to sign up." ”

"Okay, here's your number plate, take it!" The person who signed up handed over a wooden sign engraved with a number, which was her code name for the competition.

After all, there are so many people, who can remember the names of those people. Moreover, the first game is actually equivalent to a knockout round, and the vast majority of people will be eliminated, even if they remember the name, it is useless.

The real competition is the semi-final in the afternoon.

Xue Wu took the wooden sign, which read "Nine Eighty-One".

She is number 981, and it seems that there are almost a thousand people in this game.

Xue Wu took the wooden sign to the southeast corner, which was the entrance gate, where all the contestants were waiting.

"Knock-" A long bell rang out, and the originally noisy square fell silent.

Everyone was looking in a certain direction, and a group of people were slowly walking in this direction.

The leader was a middle-aged man with a round face, wearing a cyan official robe embroidered with a white crane and a glass accessory around his waist.

This person is Liu Biliang, the county magistrate of Yujing City.

The few people behind him were several elders of the Jade Chamber of Commerce, all over forty years old.

The county magistrate and the five elders formed the jury of this gambling stone conference.
