Chapter 671: Grey Wind City (2)
I didn't believe it: "You just talk nonsense!" ”
If there was a gold mine, it would have been discovered a long time ago.
"Let's go, next." The soldier looked at us, "What are you two talking about?" What do you all have with you? Open the package and let me take a closer look! ”
Maybe it's because of my whispering relationship with Xiao Wuhua, and the soldiers are very unfriendly to us. He watched us as if we were fine works, and forced open my package in full view.
I couldn't stop it, the package contained a lot of beads and gold jewelry, and all of them revealed their wealth. I could feel the greedy gaze coming from all sides, and it made me very uneasy.
After opening it for a while, I hurriedly closed the package, took out a few beads, and carefully stuffed them to the soldiers: "Master Jun, we are just doing business, please make it convenient." ”
"Well said." After the soldier accepted it, he glanced at Zhang Liao, who was coughing non-stop in the carriage. And then we got through.
We followed the map and arrived at the location of the Greywind Marketplace.
They are all bazaars, but the bazaars here cannot be compared with the long streets of Yanju City. Here, bartering is the mainstay, and money is not used much, and goods are more scarce.
There were crooked wooden sheds around it, on which a simple coarse cloth was placed, and some of them had several holes. A simple cloth was placed under the stall, as if it was never cleaned, and it was covered with dirty dust. The goods were laid out in such a mess on the cloth, as was the case in almost every stall.
In the scorching sun, those people sat down casually, and in front of them, spread out crooked goods.
Some are crockpots, some are dried fruits, and most of them are things that can withstand storage for a long time. There is almost no fresh fish and meat, and even wild vegetables are scarce.
"It's so miserable." I hugged the package full of gold hairpins, "I made a mistake, I should have brought more goods." ”
Xiao Wuhua sang the opposite: "Can you take it?" ”
Me: "Isn't there a carriage now?" If you knew earlier, you should have fished more from Jiang Dayu, and it was good to prepare more materials. ”
Jiang Dayu and I are both targeting the military camp dozens of miles west of Greywind City, but before we get there, we need to settle in the city now for supplies. After all, Jiang Dayu has 30,000 people, and it is normal to be slower than us. They had baggage to transport, and they did not need to return to the city, they only needed to meet up with Yunhan's army.
"There are 40,000 troops on Yunhan's side, 30,000 on Lei Meng's side, plus Jiang Dayu's 30,000, there are now a total of 100,000 troops on the border of the Northern Regions." I counted the number of soldiers, "It's a pity that the border guards can't be deployed at will, if I can persuade them to fight with me back to Nandu Daxing, let alone Zichuan, even if Luan Lu uses the entire Luan Dynasty resources to fight with me, I am not afraid of her." ”
Hearing my words, Xiao Wuhua was noncommittal, and Luo Heng had nothing to do with himself. Only Zhang Liao in the carriage coughed and coughed, and suddenly laughed.
I glanced back at the carriage, the curtain of the carriage was still down, and Zhang Liao didn't look around because he had reached the Greywind City Market.
He didn't seem to be curious about it at all.
Did you come before? A gut instinct flashed through my mind, but I didn't dwell on it.
It's normal to have been here, he is the Great Sima, and he has been stationed in the Northern Regions for many years. It stands to reason that he should know everything about this city.
Reading is exciting, reading is wonderful!
