Chapter 232: The Itinerant Merchant

"But......" Huo Yuzhi choked up and was about to say something, but his head was gently pressed by Ye Wuchen.

He gently rubbed the top of her head and sighed with a smile, "Don't worry, Yuzhi, I will come back to see you, and maybe I will bring them with me when the time comes." ”

"Nine Knowledge...... Is that your sister? Raising his blurred eyes, Huo Yuzhi asked in a hoarse voice.

"Well, she's a year younger than you, and she'll be your sister in the future." Ye Wuchen bowed his head, and when he thought of Jiu Chen, he couldn't help but bend his eyes happily, not noticing the coldness that flashed in Huo Yuzhi's eyes.

I don't want any sister!

"That's the only way...... she roared in her heart, but she hung her head in frustration, and her two small hands tightly held Ye Wuchen's arm.

"That's right." Feeling that the atmosphere at this time was inexplicably a little strange, Ye Wuchen simply changed the topic and said, "Do you know where to sell cotton clothes?" ”

If he could know where to sell cotton clothes, he would have gone directly to the location tomorrow, and it would have taken him a lot of time to just run around looking for a store today.

"Cotton clothes?" Huo Yuzhi thought seriously for a while, "There are not many places that sell cotton clothes, but I heard that a cotton clothes shop in the east of the trading area is of good quality and low price. ”

"Words from the East...... It's a bit far. Ye Wuchen groaned, the eastern part of the trading area was at least half a day's walk from him.

"It's a bit far, indeed." Glancing at the heavy backpack behind Ye Wuchen, Huo Yuzhi touched his face and said, "There is also the hotel where the mobile merchants are stationed, where you can buy cotton clothes, and if you meet a good businessman, it can also be cheaper." ”

"Itinerant merchants?" Ye Wuchen was surprised, "Is there a mobile merchant here?" ”

Huo Yuzhi nodded.

Seeing this, Ye Wuchen suddenly thought of gasoline in his mind, and he couldn't help but ask, "By the way, can the mobile merchant sell gasoline?" ”

Hearing Ye Wuchen say that he wanted to buy gasoline, Huo Yuzhi was stunned for a moment before hurriedly lowering his eyes and said, "Itinerant merchants are not restricted by the rules of the first and second districts in the north, it should be okay, right?" ”

"Then I'll take a look!" Ye Wuchen was a little surprised, and after asking the location, he quickly ran away.

After Ye Wuchen completely disappeared into the crowd, Huo Yuzhi silently returned to the store with a broom, looking preoccupied.

"Huo Yuzhi, don't be lazy!" The owner of this shop sat on the chair with a grin, leaning at Huo Yuzhi and said indifferently, "I saw that the work you did just now was actually done for you by someone else." I'll tell you in advance, even if this work is done by two people, I still only pay one person! If you want to steal from me, there is no door! ”

Listening to the timber shop owner scolding and saying unclean words, Huo Yuzhi didn't say anything back, she just meekly lowered her head and scolded her, hiding all the expressions on her face.

The inn where the mobile merchant was stationed was very close to the place where Ye Wuchen was just staying, and it took him about ten minutes or so to find the place Huo Yuzhi said.

The exterior of this inn looks a little more luxurious than the average inn, and the house is almost the size of an apartment building, not to mention that the walls have been painted again, and it looks new and clean.

A few men pushed open the door and walked out in groups, neatly dressed in a way that contrasted sharply with the hurried pedestrians around them.

Ye Wuchen hurriedly took this opportunity to enter the hotel, and the oncoming warmth made him a little uncomfortable for a while.

The inside of the hotel is also very spacious, with a dozen tables placed in a large open space on the left, and there are many people sitting in front of the tables, some drinking and some scolding and arguing. On the right, there are several tables that look like front desks, and many people are gathering there to trade things.

This is probably the trading desk on the right that trades with itinerant merchants.

When Ye Wuchen raised his feet and walked to the right, he noticed that there was a clean and tidy staircase behind the trading desk, leading straight upstairs.

"Little one, tell me what you need, I'm the trading agent here." A man sitting at the back of the trading desk asked, his chin tilted, his eyes full of banter. In his eyes, Ye Wuchen, a little kid, must have broken in because of curiosity, and he wouldn't buy anything.

A trading intermediary is a person who provides a fixed trading place for itinerant merchants, they do not sell things, but only earn intermediary fees from itinerant merchants.

"I want ......"

"Shut up!"

Just as Ye Wuchen was about to speak, a violent voice suddenly sounded in the hall on the left, and a very strong man slapped the table fiercely and yelled at the other man sitting at the table, "Lao Tzu wants to admit defeat and have a fart relationship with you!" ”

"Don't get excited, there are people all around here, it's not a shame for you to be so noisy." The man sitting at the table wiped the saliva on his face with a wry smile, spread his hand and sighed softly, "But the result of your bet with me is that you lose and I win, so it has nothing to do with me." ”

The people around them began to coax when they heard this, and when they saw that the two of them were drawing their swords and crossbows, they seemed to be about to fight, but they all looked like they were watching a good show.

"What's going on?" Ye Wuchen couldn't help but ask the trading intermediary behind him.

"Just now, these two bet on the dice, and one of them lost." The transaction intermediary also had an attitude of watching the fire from the other side with his chin on his chin at his fingertips, "No one cares about this matter in the first place, I think it still depends on whose fists are hard." ”

Saying that, the trading agent also turned his head to his colleague on the side and said, "I look at the sitting hanger, look at the thin appearance, I don't know if I can take a punch." ”

The itinerant merchant sitting at the table with a wry smile was indeed thinner than the standing one, but his thin figure was slightly stronger than that of ordinary people.

Ye Wuchen was not interested in these things, although he didn't think that fighting was a good thing worth watching, but he wouldn't be stupid enough to meddle in the fight and persuade him.

He turned around and just wanted to ask the previous question again, but this time he didn't even have time to open his mouth when he saw the trading agent stand up and wave a fist into the air excitedly, and whistled casually.

"Beautiful!"

At the same time, the surrounding commotion became more and more noisy, and Ye Wuchen looked back and saw that the man sitting at the table before had taken two steps back, and the chair he was sitting on fell to the ground, looking like he should have been punched.

But the itinerant merchant who waved his fist looked sluggish, as if he was frightened.

"Ahhh......h I said Yaoyao, can you light down the force? The man who looked like he had been beaten said something inexplicable into the air, and when he looked up, everyone noticed that there was no scar on his face at all.
