Chapter 13: The Hidden City
The sun awoke, the light dispelled the darkness, and shone on the earth, and a city sat in front of it, and at the city gate, the chariots and horses were noisy, and the voices of people were boiling. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
As soon as he saw the hidden city, Han Xiaoyun immediately shouted excitedly, Ning Xin looked at this city, although it was ancient, but it did not make him feel much shocked, the three-meter-high city wall separated the county from the outside, the gray city wall revealed the vicissitudes of history, there were no traces of war on the city wall, if there was no war here, or the city wall had been repaired. At the head of the city, Ning Xin saw two words, which were somewhat similar to the traditional Chinese characters, but they were a little different, and Ning Xin probably guessed that it should be the word "hidden city".
Quite a few people were walking towards the city gates, and so were they.
At the gate of the city, there were four soldiers guarding, looking a little lazy, but Ning Xin felt the cold breath on their bodies and the flash of divine light in their eyes, proving that they were not as lazy as they appeared.
After paying three copper coins, Han Daquan drove the ox cart into the county seat. After entering the county seat, Han Xiaoyun and Ning Xin got off the ox cart, and Han Daquan also came down and led the ox forward.
The county seat is very lively, there are vendors setting up stalls everywhere, if this is in the world where Ning Xin lives, there would have been a chengguan to enforce the law.
Finding a vacant lot, Uncle Han tied the ox cart, laid a cloth on the ground, and then took the tiger skin, tiger meat and tiger bones from the cart and put them on the cloth. And then just sit there and wait for someone to come and buy it.
Ning Xin saw that Uncle Han put things away and didn't sell them, so she was a little curious, and asked, "Uncle Han, why don't you sell them?"
Uncle Han's old face turned red and he didn't speak, and he really couldn't shout when he asked him to betray him.
Han Xiaoyun pulled Ning Xin and said, "Brother Ning, I sold it before. ”
Ning Xin nodded a little embarrassedly, "I see, then I'll help you shout." ”
Han Xiaoyun smiled and said, "Brother Ning, you don't need to help shout, this time there are tiger demon fur and bones, there must be many people who will come over to take a look." ”
Ning Xin nodded, it turned out that the things on this demon clan were so popular here.
"First-order tiger demon fur, flesh and blood, and tiger bones, first come, first served!"
Han Xiaoyun shouted, and all the people around him who heard it gathered around, but they didn't believe that what Han Xiaoyun said was true.
"Is it really a first-order tiger demon? it can't be a fake, right?"
"I think it's fake, the first-order tiger demon is also a tiger demon, how can it be so easy to be killed, and we have never had a demon clan appear, he is just grandstanding!"
"Whether he's true or not, let's go and see?"
"yes, let's take a look!"
A large number of people gathered around, these people didn't want to buy these things, but they were just curious if they really killed the tiger demon.
"Little girl, is this really a tiger demon? Don't be an ordinary tiger and use it to deceive us. Someone looked at Han Xiaoyun suspiciously.
Han Xiaoyun is not angry, she and her father have gone into the city to sell things so many times, and they have not been questioned, and now others just want to confirm the authenticity of some items, which is reasonable, and she will not blush.
"This uncle, these things are here, you can check it for yourself and see if it's real or fake!"
No matter how much he says, it is better to let him verify it with his own eyes, so that he will really believe it. And these things are true, she is naturally confident.
"Yes, Tu Laojiu, you personally inspect and inspect, we all believe in your vision!"
"Yes, we will believe you Tu Lao Jiu!"
It seems that this middle-aged man named Tu Laojiu has a lot of reputation in Qiancheng, and so many people support him.
This thought only flashed in Ning Xin's heart, this Tu Laojiu had little to do with him, and he didn't need to pay too much attention to it.
Tu Laojiu was coaxed by everyone, he was not angry at all, on the contrary, he enjoyed the feeling of being in the limelight very much, but unfortunately he had no qualifications, he could not become a cultivator, and he did not have the talent to become a storyteller, so he rarely attracted so much attention, and now he has turned from the original indifference to a good impression of Han Daquan and several people, if it weren't for them, he would not have had a chance to be in the limelight.
Tu Laojiu was full of spirits and laughed loudly: "Since everyone has promoted me Tu Laojiu, then I will give everyone a test to prove the authenticity!"
picked up the tiger skin from the stall, Han Daquan naturally wouldn't stop it, and let him take it.
"The fur is smooth and shiny, and when you blow it, it forms a whirlpool, which is the best fur. ”
At this time, someone said loudly: "Tu Lao Jiu, don't talk about it, tell me if this is the skin of the tiger demon?"
The others also joined in.
Tu Laojiu was not angry, and said: "Don't worry, don't worry, and listen to me slowly." ”
"This skin smells, there is no fishy smell, faintly emitting a strange fragrance, in the hair fluttering, there is a faint red light emanating, this is indeed the fur of the tiger demon, if you use this skin to make clothes and wear it, you can not be afraid of the cold, it is a treasure. ”
After finishing speaking, Tu Laojiu was a little reluctant to put down the tiger skin.
When the onlookers heard Tu Laojiu say that this skin was really the skin of a tiger demon, they suddenly boiled. Since this tiger skin is real, then the other two things should also be true.
"Little girl, how do you sell this tiger skin?
"Hey, Zhang Kui, there are so many people here, you said you wanted it, little girl, you said a price for this tiger skin, I promise not to bargain!"
"Wu Youde, do you want to rob me?"
Wu Youde smiled and said, "Zhang Kui, don't say it so ugly, this is a business, you love me, how can you say it's a robbery?"
The reason why these two people will fight for this tiger skin is because the two of them each have a ready-to-wear store in this hidden city, and the competition between them is very fierce, and both of them want to make their ready-to-wear store the first in the hidden city.
Before, the two were evenly matched, and no one could help anyone, but now, this tiger skin is an opportunity! If you have this tiger skin and make it into clothes, you can take advantage of this to make a hit, and take the opportunity to receive most of the customers in the hidden city.
Han Xiaoyun saw these two people fighting there, and she didn't know what to do, she used to be bargained for when she bought things, and she never competed, so she didn't know how to deal with such a thing. And Han Daquan is not to mention, there is no problem with letting him go to the mountains to hunt, but it is too difficult for him to let him deal with such a thing.
At this time, a smile appeared on the corner of Ning Xin's mouth, quietly pulled Han Xiaoyun, and asked in a whisper in her ear.
"Both, you guys can't solve the problem if you're so noisy, why don't I come up with an idea?"
・・・・・・
"Xiaoyun, how much do you think this tiger skin is worth?"
Being so close to Ning Xin, Han Xiaoyun's ears turned red, and he didn't hear what Ning Xin was saying at all, until Ning Xin repeated it again.
"Ah, Brother Ning, this is the skin of the tiger demon, although it is only a first order, it is much more precious than the ordinary tiger skin, and it should be worth at least one or two silver. ”
One tael of silver, this price is estimated by Han Xiaoyun, an ordinary tiger skin, worth one hundred copper coins, this is the fur of a first-order tiger demon, it should be ten times the value of an ordinary tiger skin, so she quoted one or two silver.
Ning Xin nodded, and then walked towards the two people who were still arguing with a smile.
Originally, the two of them were still fighting for the ownership of this tiger skin, and in the end, they ripped out the previous trivial grievances after arguing, and even almost started to move. Others have said that they are not afraid of big things when they watch the excitement.
"You two, you can't solve the problem by arguing so much, why don't I come up with an idea?"
