"What's wrong with just the two of you? What about Lord Xiao's guards? ”

Shen Ru saw that there were only two people in the room, Xiao Wuyan and Luneng, and asked curiously.

"Shen Ru, don't care about it, why did you appear in Baishui City, Baishui City is currently closed, how did you enter, or did you come in a long time ago?"

Xiao Wuyan said with a grim face.

"Lord Xiao, I entered Whitewater City with a heavy responsibility."

Shen Ru immediately shouted injustice.

Xiao Wuyan frowned slightly, and then asked, "Even if you can't travel fifty miles a day, shouldn't you just go to Baishui City, what happened on the way?" ”

"Lord Xiao asked a good question, he really got to the point!"

Shen Ru immediately said, "It's not just the blessing of Lord Xiao." ”

She explained in detail what happened in the canyon, and finally did not forget to sigh:

"Lord Xiao, we are all because of you!"

Xiao Wuyan was a little shocked, and couldn't help but ask, "How many Bang killers did you say?" ”

"About a dozen people, they are all dead anyway, and it is estimated that there is still a fish that has been caught in the net, that is, the boulder that was put down on the canyon."

Shen Ru thought about it for a while and said.

"It's just so unfortunate that the rescue officers and soldiers went back before they went back, and there was a riot, and it was strictly forbidden to enter and leave the city in Whitewater. It's been a few days since Lord Xiao was in this city! ”

In this way, it is really because of myself.

"Your business, Luneng, you go for a trip."

Xiao Wuyan said to Luneng, "The exile is delayed, ask the state capital of Whitewater City, can you take this responsibility!" ”

"Shen Ru, just accompany this official to the auction house!"

"Huh?"

Shen Ru was surprised, and Luneng was also surprised.

"My lord, this is not very good!"

"I'm worried about how to hide my identity, and with Shen Ru as a companion, I can naturally hide people's eyes and ears."

Xiao Wuyan said, "It is said that there is a map of the distribution of the countries in the Western Regions in this auction in the city, but the underground black market behavior is guarded against by those of us who are in the imperial court. ”

"Auction, ...... Is Lord Xiao rich? ”

"I was worried about this, but if you come, I won't worry about it!"

Listening to this shameless rhetoric, Shen Ru's eyes widened.

"I don't have any money!"

Xiao Wuyan said in a firm tone: "Shen Ru, cooperating with me is good for you and your whole family." ”

"What's the benefit?"

Shen Ru asked rhetorically, "Lord Xiao, your empty gloves white wolf's rhetoric is quite smooth. ”

"I asked Lu Neng to do what you have to do, and I will also tell the officials outside the city and your parents that you are doing things for me, how about it?"

"And I suppose you still enjoy not being in exile, don't you?"

Xiao Wuyan looked at Shen Ru and spoke calmly and confidently.

Shen Ru admitted that Xiao Wuyan was right, but she was not wronged!

"Lord Xiao, the ugly words are in front, my money is not blown by the wind, and it is not used by you to pretend to be a local tyrant."

"Local tyrants?"

Xiao Wuyan was a little puzzled by this word.

"Anyway, it's okay to accompany you, but it doesn't cost me anything."

"Yes!"

Xiao Wuyan nodded, and went first.

Lu Neng saw that the two had negotiated, and he could only help Shen Ru do things!

Until the two walked into the auction hall together, Shen Ru couldn't help but ask:

"Lord Xiao, where are your guards?"

"I'm back in Liangzhou, I don't need too much protection."

Xiao Wuyan replied, "When I meet you this time, I am even more sure that the Fanbang killer is no longer a threat." ”

"If there is a fish that slips through the net, you are not afraid of ......"

Shen Ruting admired Xiao Wuyan, who was so desperate for his life, and was still so lonely.

"It's my usual style to keep a low profile."

Xiao Wuyan took out the identity token he had prepared in advance and entered the auction hall smoothly.

Entering inside, Shen Ru felt a great disobedience.

It was a mess outside, there were officers and soldiers patrolling the streets, and there was a tense atmosphere everywhere.

But here...... The maid shuttled through the crowd with a wine jug, and the guests laughed and laughed, as if they were two worlds from the panic outside.

"Everyone, please take your number plates, find a seat and sit down, the auction is about to begin!"

"This auction is about to start, and it has been 300 years since Daduan closed the door to Cisse country, and who remembers the glow-in-the-dark glass of grape wine in the past. Ladies and gentlemen, the first item in this auction is a glass cup from the Western Regions, and ...... How wine is made. ”

Shen Ru and Xiao Wuyan sat in an inconspicuous place at the front, and when she heard the words of introduction, she couldn't help but widen her eyes.

How to make wine, she knows!

"What, you want?"

Xiao Wuyan couldn't help but ask in a low voice when he saw Shen Ru's widening eyes, but before Shen Ru could nod, Xiao Wuyan spoke again.

"The method of making wine is not too difficult, it is the glass cup, which is a rare thing, but ...... Playthings are demoralized, and you'd better not shoot. ”

"You're so boring, I really don't want to shoot, but I'm a little curious, are things in the Western Regions rare?"

Shen Ru asked, "Isn't Liangzhou closer to the Western Regions?" ”

"Liangzhou is the only way to go to the Western Regions, but on the surface, there is no caravan that knows the route, and there are only some mercenary merchants who risk their lives to secretly go to the Western Regions to buy things and sell them back."

Xiao Wuyan explained, "In Daduan, if you find out that you are trading with the Western Regions, you will be killed. ”

"Why not?"

Shen Ru couldn't help asking, "Actually, if trade with the countries of the Western Regions can be restored, Liangzhou will immediately prosper, right?" ”

"The imperial court banned, it's not that no one has tried to fold it, but all of them have been banned!"

Xiao Wuyan didn't explain too much, but when he said this, his brows were a little tightened.

In the whispered conversation between the two, the glass cup was auctioned off for a hundred taels of silver.

Some objects with strong exotic characteristics of the Western Regions were put up for auction.

These things are not very attractive to Shen Ru, watching the people around her loot and speculate the prices of things, she only feels that she lacks interest.

Finally, Xiao Wuyan said in a low voice: "It's here!" ”

"Next, there is a map drawn by an experienced businessman, with the distribution of various countries in the Western Regions, as well as the specific route from Liangzhou, the starting price, three hundred taels!"

"Three hundred taels, grab money!"

Shen Ru muttered, "I really can't figure it out, since the previous dynasty said that it was allowed to come and go, how could there be no map left?" ”

"Three hundred years of prohibition, a lot of things are gone, Shen Ru, take this thing down for me!"

Xiao Wuyan had an inevitable light in his eyes and participated in the bidding.

"Five hundred taels."

"Five hundred and fifty taels."

"Six hundred taels!"

When Shen Ru heard the voice of bidding, there was something familiar to her.

Looking at the voice, Shen Ru sighed in his heart, Pei Wenjing, what is he doing here?

"Eight hundred taels!" Beside him, Xiao Wuyan shouted lightly, like a local tyrant with a huge amount of money.

Shen Ru raised her eyebrows, how could she suspect that Xiao Wuyan didn't have a hundred taels on him?

"One thousand taels!"

Pei Wenjing's voice was as cold as freezing to the ground, shocking Xiao Wuyan.

"Shen Ru, I have to have this thing, so ......"

Xiao Wuyan said in a low voice, and then raised his head and said in a high-pitched voice: "One thousand two hundred taels!" ”
