Chapter Twenty-Five: West Market

Nanzhao has developed commerce and trade, among which the capital city of Yejing is the most prosperous.

There are countless large and small markets in Yejing City, among which the West Market is the most special.

Because this western market is an area dedicated to foreign merchants.

Of course, there are not only shops of foreign merchants in the West Market, but also many people of Nanzhao Kingdom who have opened shops here to do business.

The population of Xishi is complex, so there are three religions and nine streams, and everyone has it.

Under normal circumstances, the wealthy families in Yejing City will not let their subordinates come here to buy things, unless they are greedy for freshness.

Mother Zheng today, it was at the behest of An Sheng that she was greedy for this "freshness".

Early in the morning, bursts of noisy shouting could already be heard in the West Market, and the tea shops, taverns, and food shops had already opened their doors and started business.

It's just that their business is more special, and the main customers come from those places in the West Market.

Zheng's mother stretched out her head slightly and looked into the noisy streets of Xishi.

The mother-in-law who came with her dragged her and said in a low voice: "Go buy vegetables, it's late, and the rest is not fresh." ”

Mother Zheng retracted her gaze when she heard this, and said to the mother-in-law: "Why don't you go shopping for vegetables first, I'll go in, I heard that there is a small shop in this West Market, and the cakes are very good, and the second lady likes to eat cakes, and I want to buy two for her to take back." ”

"This ......"

"I'll go to you when I'm done, how about you wait for me for a while in front of the stall we frequent?" Mother Zheng saw the mother-in-law's hesitation, and immediately took out a corner of broken silver from her sleeve and stuffed it into the mother-in-law's hand.

The woman took the silver, pinched it twice with her hand, and nodded with a smile, "Okay, you hurry up, don't delay the hour." ”

"Don't worry, I'll look for you when I've bought it."

There is a very small shop in the West Market, which is opened by a Hu man, specializing in making Hu cakes, and only sells them for two hours a day in the early morning.

In the distance, you can see the navy blue guise of the Hu family cake shop.

Zheng's mother couldn't help but speed up her pace.

Soon, I arrived in front of the Hu family cake shop.

Zheng's mother looked up at this small shop, the door was so small that it was a little dark inside, and she couldn't see the situation clearly, but there was a long queue in front of the stall outside, indicating the prosperity of the shop.

Zheng's mother didn't see the person described in An Sheng's mouth, so she could only go inside the store first.

As soon as I entered, I was greeted by an exotic woman with a high nose, yellow hair and deep eye sockets, who spoke not very fluent Chinese, and beckoned, "Hello, what do you want to eat?" ”

There were no customers in the shop, and no other guys were in sight, just this woman.

Mother Zheng got closer and said in a low voice, "I'm looking for Hu Da." ”

The woman's raised eyebrows furrowed tightly when she heard this, and then she looked Zheng's mother up and down a few times, and said, "Wait." ”

After saying this, the woman left.

Before Zheng's mother could understand why she suddenly became cold, she saw a tall man walk out from the direction of the kitchen behind her.

The man was also a bearded man, with thick hair and dark skin, and a scar under his right eye that snaked across the entire right cheek.

That's this person, this is the Hu Da in Miss's mouth.

"You're looking for me."

Hu Da walked up to Zheng's mother, and as soon as he opened his mouth, it turned out to be a fluent and standard Nanzhao official dialect.

Mother Zheng was shocked, then nodded, and then handed a money bag to Hu Da.

Hu Da stretched out his hand to take it, checked it, and then asked, "What's the matter, let's talk about it." ”

Zheng's mother looked around cautiously, and then approached Hu Da and told her what happened.

After hearing this, Hu Da frowned.

After a while, he added, "It's too difficult, and the pay is not enough." ”

Zheng's mother immediately said: "This is just a deposit, the real reward, in the back, my master said, if you do this, she will help you cure your daughter, the condition is that you must do it yourself and must keep it secret." ”

Hu Da's pupils instantly opened when he heard this, and he looked at Zheng's mother fiercely, "Why should I believe you!" ”

Zheng's mother tried her best to calm down, "With so many doctors you have found, you can't cure your daughter." ”

Hu Da's eyes were even colder, and he seemed to want to eat Zheng's mother alive.

After a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "You'd better not lie to me." ”

Mother Zheng suppressed her beating heart and replied: "My master never lies." ”

Her young lady really doesn't deceive people often, and what she said is not wrong, pray that Miss really didn't deceive people this time......

"Deal!" Hu Da took back the money bag and said to Zheng's mother, "Tomorrow, when you apply, come to get the news." ”

After saying this, Hu Da went back to the kitchen and ignored Zheng's mother.

Zheng's mother clutched her chest and gasped for breath sharply.

This person is also too fierce, especially the two slightly faint pupils, when she stares at people fixedly, she is almost scared.

There was a faint sound of quarrel in the kitchen, but it was not Nanzhao's official language, and Zheng's mother couldn't understand it, so she took two breaths and relieved, and she quickly left the shop.

After going out, there were many fewer people queuing outside, so Zheng's mother hurriedly walked to the stall, bought a few Hu cakes, and then left the West Market quickly.

Half an hour later, Zheng's mother returned to the Yongning Hou Mansion with another buying mother-in-law.

The two parted in the front yard, and Zheng's mother went back to Yushengju directly.

Not long after, Tingxuetang went to a mother-in-law, and after a closer look, it was the rough envoy of Yushengju, Mrs. Wu.

Xi Xiang personally received Mrs. Wu, asked a few words, and then took her to the Fang family's main room.

"You wait here first, and I'll go back to Madame's words, and then I'll let you in."

Leaving Mrs. Wu in the outer hall, she quickly stepped into the inner room.

"Madam, Mrs. Wu from Yushengju is here."

Hearing this, Fang immediately put down the teacup in his hand and said, "Call her in." ”

"Yes, ma'am." Xiangfu bowed, and then went out and called Mrs. Wu in.

Mrs. Wu followed Xiang into the inner room, and she didn't dare to look around, so she knelt down and kowtowed to Fang's greetings, and then dared to stand up when she heard Fang's call.

"Tell me something." Fang's voice was faint, and it sounded a little careless.

But Mrs. Wu didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly reported the movements of everyone in Yushengju in the morning.

"You say, that girl sent her mother-in-law to the West Market early in the morning to buy Hu cakes?"

When Mrs. Wu heard Fang's question, she nodded hurriedly and replied, "Mrs. Hui, exactly." ”

Fang thought about it for a long time, but he didn't think of anything strange about this matter, so he had to let Mrs. Wu go back first.

"The things that can't be on the big table, and the food you like is so vulgar." Thinking of what An Sheng was going to eat, Fang's face was disgusted.

Those uncivilized Hu people also like to eat things, and Gu Ansheng is destined to not be able to get on the big stage.

Even if there is Master Puyun as a master, it is still the same, her Gu Ansheng's life is destined to be cheap!
