The young man was dressed very ordinary, like a teenager from an ordinary or even poor family, with no temperament at all.

"What are you doing!" As soon as the young man appeared, he was stopped by a shopkeeper.

This inn is indeed not very luxurious, but now everyone knows that there is a "big man" living here, and those merchants have just chartered this place just now, just to entertain that big man.

Now that such a "shabby" young man has appeared, naturally he can't be looked down upon by Xiao Er.

"You hurry up, this place is being chartered today, and no guests are accepted!" Xiao Er wanted to blast him out with a look of disgust, and then he had to close the door of the inn to prevent this kind of person from disturbing the rest of the guests.

"The kid is here to find the old gentleman, and I've made an appointment with him before!" the young man chuckled and said to Xiao Er, not feeling lost or angry at all because this Xiao Er looked down on him.

When Xiao Er heard the young man's words, his face became even more disdainful, "Just like you, are you embarrassed to say that you have some agreement with that guest? I'm afraid people don't know who you are." ”

"Whether you know it or not, we made an appointment to come at this time, and now the kid is here!" the young man chuckled and continued, "If you don't let me in, then forget it, but please take the initiative to tell the old man when you go back, it's not that the villain doesn't come to him!"

"You're going to pretend to be here... Pretend..."The little second wanted to taunt, but as soon as he was halfway through speaking, he saw that the young man left without hesitation, and he suddenly panicked.

Xiao Er really looked down on this young man, but when he saw the appearance of this young man saying that he would leave, he was still a little frightened, he was afraid that if what this young man said was true, then he would delay things.

The one inside has a relationship with their lord of Flame City, and if he delays their affairs, then he will really be finished.

"You wait!" Xiao Er stopped the young man, then pursed his lips and said, "You wait here, I'll go and tell you for you, if what you say is false, see how I clean you up!"

The little second still didn't dare to let him go like this, and chose to report to the drunk old man.

When Xiao Er came to Li Ru's door, before he opened his mouth, a voice came from inside.

"That person is indeed here to find the old man, let him in!" Li Ru's voice suddenly came from inside, and then it really startled him.

Xiao Er nodded hurriedly and quickly ran down, glad that he hadn't really blasted the young man out.

When the little second went to call someone, Li Ru was slowly drinking tea in the room, and beside him was Huo Jun, one of the Huo family brothers who was responsible for guarding him this time.

"Why do you want to see him?" Huo Jun didn't understand why he wanted to see such a young guy on this big night, "He doesn't look special, and he doesn't look like a rich man!"

"Well, you're right!" Li Ru nodded very naturally, "He really has no cultivation and no temperament, and he seems to be barely literate, but he is very interesting." ”

Huo Jun couldn't understand Li Ru's words, but shook his head helplessly, "You can see it yourself, I don't understand!"

After finishing speaking, Huo Jun gave up continuing to communicate with him, but ran to the side, holding the spear in his hand and closing his eyes to recuperate.

Soon, the young man came to Li Ru's door.

"Old gentleman, Duanmu asks to see you!" the young man whispered to the door.

"Come in!"

Duanmuci is very humble, but it can be seen that Duanmuci at this time does not have much culture, although he is polite and courteous, but in Li Ru's eyes, he is still a little flustered, and many things are not in place.

"Your name is Duanmu Ci?" Li Ru didn't get up, just sat there naturally and looked at the young man who had just arrived, "Do you know that the old man will have a banquet today?"

"The boy knows that it is the famous merchant of this Flame City who is feasting you. Duanmu Ci didn't pretend to be stupid, and said very naturally, "But they will definitely not make a deal with you today." ”

"Why?" Li Ru looked at Duanmu Ci, who was very confident, with a smile on his face and asked, "Why don't they make a deal?"

"Because at this time, they don't make the most money. Duanmu Ci said softly, "In Shangyan, they did nothing wrong, and gave a part of the profits that could have belonged to you to the city lord of Flame City, so that both of them got more profits, and you didn't suffer losses, but you just earned less." ”

Li Ru nodded, he didn't understand business, but he wasn't stupid, the actions of those people just now were nothing more than to inquire about his origin, and the rest was just to inquire about his relationship with Situ Hao.

As for procurement, they didn't get involved too much, so it can be seen that Duanmuci was not wrong.

"Look at what you mean, it seems that you have any opinion on their approach!" Li Ru looked at the young man with a smile, "Look at your appearance, you are also a businessman?"

"The boy is not a businessman, the villain is just a businessman. Duanmu Ci said honestly.

"You want to eat this batch of old man's goods?"

"The kid wants to join your caravan and take charge of your caravan!" Duanmu Ci did not mention the matter of those goods, but made a "more excessive" request.

"Hahahaha, it's funny!" Li Ru couldn't help laughing, "Zhong Miao, look, isn't this little guy very interesting?"

Huo Jun, who had been holding the spear and closing his eyes, also slowly opened his eyes at this time, and glanced at Duanmu Ci curiously, but he didn't say anything.

"The old man is going to sell these goods now, why do you want to directly take the old man's caravan into your arms!"

"My lord is wrong, the caravan is still yours, the kid is the most... It's just a steward!"

"Then why does the old man believe you?" Li Ru looked at the young Duanmu Ci, "I'm afraid you are not even twenty this year, is it too early to talk to the old man here at such a young age?"

"The villain is fifteen years old, but he's been a foot merchant outside for seven years!" Duanmu Ci, who was barely tall, said with a chuckle.

"Fifteen, seven?" Li Ru was surprised this time, "It seems that you came out quite early." ”

"No way, when the villain was eight years old, the whole village was slaughtered by wandering aliens, so he had to be a foot trader himself. ”

"It's a poor person, but even so, how can you make the old man believe you?" Li Ru expressed pity for Duanmu Ci's past with an expressionless face, "I can't let me and others pity you like this because of your miserable background, so I believe you, it doesn't make sense." ”

"The boy understands that if you give the boy trust because of the poor boy, then this trust is really not reliable. ”

"Then you're giving me a reason. ”

"Your cattle and sheep skins, the boy can exchange them for thirty ox carts of grain, grass and supplies. Duanmu Ci didn't say what his ability was, but what he could bring to Li Ru with these things, maybe this was his ability.

"How can you do that?"

"Just because the kid is Duanmuci, Duanmuci never tells lies!"

"Do you only need one caravan steward, or do you want the entire caravan?" Li Ru pondered for a moment before asking Duanmu Ci.

"The money earned by the caravan belongs to you and the people behind you, but this caravan is a villain. Duanmu Ci's face showed a relaxed smile, and at this moment he suddenly became really a little bit of meaning.

"When do you think they will find the old man?" Li Ru felt that he needed to take the school exam.

"According to the boy's understanding of them, I'm afraid they won't show up in the next two or three days. Duanmu Ci also pondered slightly for a moment, "And not only will they not appear, but other people will not appear, because they will suppress the price together." ”

"And what can you do?"

"Merchants are not the only ones, Flame City is indeed an extremely special existence now, but there are many caravans that have not set up branches in Flame City, but it does not mean that they do not have strength. ”

"So what!"

"Lord Situ Hao, the city lord of Flame City, wants to have a lot to do with you, so I can use this incident to remind him. ”

Li Ru listened to Duanmu Ci who was talking eloquently, and finally nodded, "Then you can watch and handle this matter." ”

"Thank you, sir, boy, the boy will definitely not live up to Mr.'s hope and trust!" Duanmu Ci heard Li Ru's words, and knew that his opportunity had finally appeared.

Looking at Duanmu Ci, who was leaving excitedly, Li Ru couldn't help but chuckle.

"You just handed over the caravan so simply?" Huo Jun looked at Li Ru, and there was some complaint in his mouth.

"This little guy, although he is still a little childish in talking and doing things, but the old man sees a temperament from him, if the lord can cultivate him well, he may not be able to become a talent. ”

"Temperament, arrogant temperament?" Huo Jun sneered, "You better think about how to explain it to the lord first, you can give it to someone else after the caravan that the lord worked so hard to get out, you are really generous." ”

"If a caravan can get a great Confucian for the lord, then why not do it!" Li Ru laughed, stretched out his hand and drank the already cold tea in front of him.

"Confucian, businessman, what will happen from the combination of the two, interesting, really interesting!"

Huo Jun looked at Li Ru, who was laughing wildly, but shook his head helplessly.

"Another crazy one...."
