From the moment Xia Ning and Song Shaoqin walked into the reception center, the attention of the three foreign businessmen was locked on the two of them, and their eyes were full of curiosity and inquiry.

Looking at Da Jiang and Lao Lai's respectful attitude towards the two, the three of them instantly understood their identities, presumably these two people are the ones who make Da Jiang and Lao Lai respect and admire, right?

Sure enough, it's outstanding!

Walking all the way from Guanwai to here, all the Central Plains people who saw them would be more or less surprised, even if some did not dare to approach, they would secretly look at them.

However, when the man and woman saw their appearance, they did not seem surprised at all, not even inquisitive and curious, and their faces were as usual as if they were commonplace.

Lao Lai immediately introduced. "Miss, second master, let me introduce to you, these three Persian merchants came from the Northern Desert, they are very interested in our Central Plains, so they came with us, and they want to follow our base to do business."

Li Jiang followed up and added, "The tallest one is called Abbas, the middle one is called Hassan, and the one on the edge is called Ali. ”

"A few brothers, the two of them are Miss Xia and Second Master Song that we often mention, and we are doing things for them." Lao Lai hurriedly motioned to the three foreign businessmen, but his eyes looked at the translator who followed the three of them.

In fact, this so-called translator, that is, a hawker living on the border between the two countries, the hawker is a young man in his twenties, everyone calls him Ah Lang, because he grew up eating 100 family meals, and he does not have a surname.

Since he was a teenager, he has been dealing with foreign merchants a lot, and the more contact he has had with it, he has naturally learned some foreign languages.

It's not proficient, but basic communication is fine.

This time they entered the Central Plains to do business, and in order to buy and sell smoothly, they deliberately brought him along, hoping that there would be an intermediary to help convey the meaning.

As a result, before Ah Lang could open his mouth to help translate, he heard a beautiful female voice.

“hello？ speak English？ ”

Xia Ning tentatively sent out a greeting, judging from their physical characteristics alone, she could be sure that they were foreigners, but their appearance was quite similar to that of several Western European countries, so she was not sure if foreigners in this period spoke English?

And her foreign language level is average, just some daily spoken English.

“oh！”

“ unbelievable！”

“Yes。”

Hearing the more familiar language, the three of them were shocked, as if they didn't expect that there were women in the Central Plains who could speak the language of their country, although the tone sounded a little strange, but they understood the meaning.

After a burst of surprise, the three of them looked at Xia Ning with curiosity, they had been in the Central Plains for so long, and this was the first person they had met who could speak the language of their hometown, which instantly made the three of them feel very cordial to Xia Ning.

Xia Ning smiled, it's good to be able to communicate in English, if it's French or German, then she's really like listening to a book from heaven.

Then, the people on both sides began to greet and communicate simply, and when encountering too complex sentences, Xia Ning relied on her previous basic skills to guess, and she could barely understand it.

And Song Shaoqin on the side was also listening hard throughout the whole process, dragging out the blessing of the previous vacation abroad, and he also learned a little bit of spoken English.

Although he couldn't understand most of the content, he had a good brain and a strong learning ability, and while memorizing their pronunciation sentences, he tried to understand the meaning of the words, and he learned it very seriously.

In the new year of 2024, I wish all book lovers who read the text a prosperous life and success in everything!
