There was nothing to say that night, and the next day Zhang Feng got up early in the morning, grabbed a handful of animal jerky and walked out, Zhang Mazi told him: "You haven't been to class for a few days, and you have to go to the school to show up today." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Zhang Feng chewed on the dried meat of the beast, and his mouth was vague: "Every year when the merchant comes to the city, the school hall will have a few days off, and the teachers are doing business, who should I go to class?"

As he spoke, his legs had already spread. This kid is energetic, always in a hurry, and runs very fast, no one in Cliff City can outrun him, but his house is far away from the center of the city, and when he runs to the Hero Terrace at the end of Baihua Street, it has already fallen, and it is already crowded with people, crowded with people from Cliff City who come to do business with merchants.

The Hero Terrace is a kilometer square, about one meter high platform, this thing is made of mysterious black iron, it is said to have been handed down from ancient times, although it has been hundreds of millions of years of wind and rain, it is still intact, after each scrub is black and bright, like a newly cast one, there is no scratch.

After the merchants enter the city every year, they all choose to set up stalls and sell goods on the Hero Stage, which makes sense, and there is really no second place in the entire Cliff City that is so flat and open.

The buying and selling is a two-way street, and many people rush to the hero's platform with a large bag of souvenirs on their backs to sell to the merchants' husbands, and then buy a large bag of salt, cloth and other living materials from the merchants' husbands and carry them back.

There are not many local products that people in Cliff City can trade, and the most important thing in the past is the delicious and beneficial green radix wine, but since Zhang Feng's generation, the buying and selling of green radish wine has been difficult to do, and the reason is not because of anything else, it is all because Lan Jing'er and her father Lan Fat have monopolized this business.

The blue fat man is Zhang Feng's idol, this person was also a poor barehead when he was young, his family was poor, he only begged his wife in his twenties, and then he didn't know what luck he had, he started from scratch and opened a big winery, which crushed all the small wineries in the city, and also got on the line with the regional headquarters of the Shang family in Nanshan Prefecture.

Zhang Feng is now working in the direction of the blue fat man, and his dream is to open a dried animal meat factory and monopolize the meat business in the city.

Having said that, most people in Cliff City are actually very repulsive to people like Blue Fat. After all, the carrying capacity of the merchant is limited, and there are not many goods that can be taken away in and out of the cliff city, and the blue fat man's green radish wine is sold too much, which not only crushes his peers, but also affects those who want to sell local products such as animal skins, yams, and ginseng mushrooms.

Merchants in the purchase of goods to implement the quota system, for each kind of special products are quantitative purchases, until the full amount, I don't know what's going on, in recent years, the quota of green rael wine is increasing year by year, the quota of other specialties is decreasing year by year, everyone suspects that the blue fat man is playing tricks behind the scenes, and this person is even more complaining.

Zhang Feng and the businessman's husband, the housekeeper, and the bald uncle are very compatible, and his family lives by the city gate, so he can be one step ahead of others to ship all the dried animal meat that has been stored for a year. He came to the Heroes' Stand today, just to have a good time, and by the way, to see what is worth buying.

Others were not so laid-back, and there were long queues in front of many stalls to buy special products, and the people of Cliff City who were honest and chatty looked anxious one by one, and only when it was finally their turn did they breathe a sigh of relief and grin.

Zhang Feng walked around and took a look, and after walking for a long time, he suddenly saw the second stunned Ziyi crying in the crowd, and the guy was holding a few rolls of paper and standing stupidly. He leaned over and made a noise: "Brother Yi, you also come to join in the fun." The second stunned pointed to the paper in his arms with his chin, and said with a smile: "My mother asked me to sell these paintings, but no one would accept them." ”

Nineteen-year-old Yi Crying looks quite normal, not like a fool, but he laughs silly all day long, so everyone says that he is a dumbfounder behind his back. However, his father and mother are both teachers in the academy and are very respected, so no one will call him stunned in front of him, and they are all polite.

The second stunned and his mother, Teacher Eli, taught literacy classes, and his father, Teacher Gu Xing, taught geography and history, these two courses were not within the scope of the Immortal Sect's appropriation, and the salary was paid by the city lord from the taxes, which was a cut lower than the other teachers. Their family has no land, and they don't know any crafts, so their lives are quite hard.

When Zhang Feng first entered the school hall at the age of five, because he was far away from home and had no money, when the other dolls went home or went to the street to eat at noon, he would sit in the corner of the school hall hungry and wait for the afternoon class to start. The second stunned mother noticed this situation, and would take him to her house for dinner at noon every day, so after a year, he got into a relationship with Liancheng, and then went to the city lord's house to eat.

He has always remembered this kindness, and in his heart he regarded the second stunned son as his brother, in recent years, he has become rich, and often helps the second stunned son and their family. The errand that the second stunned man now has in the blue fat man's winery is also what he helped to ask for.

At this time, he heard that the second stunned man was in trouble, so he immediately pulled the second stunned man to find the bald uncle.

Uncle Bald Head was patrolling on the hero stage with his hands behind his back, Zhang Feng found him, and opened his mouth and said: "Uncle Bald, I know that you are a particular person and know how elegant, can you help me look at these paintings in my friend's hand to see how much they are worth?"

The bald uncle scolded with a smile: "Stinky boy, don't you dare to take this seriously, when did your bald uncle become a particular person?" He glanced at the second stunned man, took a scroll of paintings from the second stunned man's hand, and took a cursory glance, the painting on it was a landscape, the brush and ink were delicate, and it was very realistic. He was slightly stunned, "I haven't seen this style of painting before." ”

When Zhang Feng heard this, he felt that this deal could be successful, so he took advantage of the situation and said: "This is painted by a female teacher in our school, and that teacher is a famous master in the water country......"

Uncle Bald Tou interrupted him: "You don't know where the Water Country is, and you still say that the famous artist of the Water Country? You are so easy to deceive when you are your bald uncle?" As he spoke, he rolled up the painting and handed it back to the second stunned man, "The business of this calligraphy and painting is not that our Shang family does not do it, but generally only handles famous paintings, and it is difficult for us to get rid of your things after we buy them back, so I can't help it." ”

The second stunned man laughed and said: "It doesn't matter, my mother also said that it may not be sold, but let me try my luck." ”

Zhang Feng was not convinced: "My teacher can draw anything wonderful, just like the real thing, her handwriting will never be worse than those famous artists in the outside world." ”

The bald uncle smiled: "I also see that your teacher's handwriting is very unusual, if she is willing to draw some picture albums that everyone is vying to buy, I will charge as much as I want, and the price will not be low." ”

Zhang Feng asked curiously: "What kind of album will everyone compete to buy?"

Uncle Bald smiled mysteriously, "You are still young now, and you can't let you know that in a few years, your Uncle Bald Head will give you a copy, and you will know when the time comes." ”

At this time, an old man came over and said softly to the second stunned man: "Doll, can you let me take a look at these paintings?" Uncle Bald and Zhang Feng called out to the immortal master together, the immortal master nodded slightly, and then looked at the second stunned man kindly, waiting for him to hand over the painting to himself.

The second stunned man brought a total of five paintings, all of which were handed over to the immortal master. The immortal master unfolded those paintings one by one, observed them for a long time, and sighed: "These paintings are the landscapes of the Cliff City, I know them all. Eight hundred years have passed, and when I look back, everything is still the same as it was eight hundred years ago. ”

Zhang Feng was stunned when he heard this, it turned out that this old man was really a peer of Mu Guo Shenzhu and Jin Guo Guoshi.

The immortal master held the painting in his hand, swept his eyes around, and sighed to himself: "Eight hundred years ago, before we left, we swore on this heroic platform, and we promised to live and die together, but there was only one battle in the north, and 10,000 brothers died, leaving me alone to live and live for 800 years. I went home without shame for 800 years, and now I have returned, the mountains and rivers are still the same, but things are not people. My old brothers, I miss you!"

The old man's words were sad, and his voice was so sad that in the end, a few tears appeared in his gray eyes.

Zhang Feng was stunned when he heard this, and suddenly thought of something, and exclaimed: "Immortal Master, are you the old city lord?"

Liancheng told him about this, and there was an old city lord in Liancheng's ancestors who once brought 10,000 warriors of Cliff City to fight in the north, and none of them returned.

The history of Cliff City has not mentioned this matter, and the reason is unknown. However, according to the Jin Historical Records, the war must have taken place about 800 years ago, when Emperor Zhenwu of the Jin Kingdom insisted on provoking the War of the Four Kingdoms in order to unify the southern part of the mainland, causing all countries to suffer heavy losses, and the Jin State itself lost half of its population, and it took many years to recover.

Liancheng once vaguely mentioned that Cliff City could have been spared from war because of its location in a deserted place, but in order to show his allegiance to the Emperor of Jin, the old city lord insisted on gathering an army of 10,000 people to participate in the battle in the north, and almost took away all the young people in Cliff City at that time.

At this moment, when the immortal master heard Zhang Feng identify him as the old city lord, he smiled sadly and said lightly: "What old city lord? I have long forgotten my real name, I don't remember much about the old things in this city, and I don't want to hear anyone mention it." ”

Zhang Feng was bored, smiled wryly, and stopped talking.

The immortal master returned the painting to the second stunned man and asked, "I just heard that doll say that the person who painted these paintings is from the water country, maybe this is true?"

The second stunned man nodded honestly, and said with a smile: "These paintings were all painted by my mother, my mother said that she and my father both grew up in the water country, and I was also born in the water country." ”

The immortal master wrinkled his brows and stared at the second stunned man for a long time, and he couldn't help but scratch his head when he saw that the second stunned man was not very comfortable.

The immortal master suddenly smiled, "These paintings are really good, can you take me to meet your mother and see if there are any such paintings, I want to buy them all." ”

The second stunned man laughed and said: "What's not to do, we still have a lot of this kind of painting in our house, all of which were painted by my mother when she was idle." "I immediately took the immortal master to their house.

After the immortal master left, the bald uncle seemed to be in an evil spirit, and he was in a daze, Zhang Feng pulled his clothes, and he came back to his senses and said: "I heard a rumor before, and I haven't taken it seriously, but looking at the appearance of the immortal master just now, that rumor is eighty percent true, no, I will go to find Miss Seven, and I can't let the head sect of the Immortal Sect get ahead of the business." ”

These words are not clear, they are not clear, Zhang Feng was about to ask what was going on, but Uncle Bald had already jumped up, stepped on the heads of everyone on the hero stage, and flew away.
