These days, Yongan is much more prosperous than before. Because Anting Town was occupied by the Chu army and was at the forefront of the battle between the two armies, the road in and out of the Shifang Mountains was cut off. Even Shifang Town, the most senior node in and out of Shifang Mountain, has also been depressed a lot. Saying that the depression may not be enough to describe the scene in those places, because the state of Chu deliberately expelled those adventurers who were ready to stay in the local area, or even prepared to enter the Shifang Mountains for a long time to avoid the disaster of the war, and requisitioned a large amount of supplies, even obviously unreasonable, so that the adventurers could not buy enough supplies at all, and almost all the adventurers there left. Only a small number of adventurers raised by chambers of commerce, wealthy families, etc., are still stranded there. Some groups with big names with hands and eyes on them came up with ideas, and they withdrew from the front line of Anting and Shifang Town early, came to Yong'an, and began to make preliminary preparations first. Most of them were adventuring groups of the Chu State.

The ambitions and covetousness of the upper echelons of the Chu State for the Yue State are probably well known to everyone. And when Yue Chu was at war, it could also be seen that the Chu State was planning for this battle and had taken all aspects into account. If it weren't for the horizontal swings of the generals and sergeants of the Yue country, the Vietnamese country would have been unable to maintain the battle line by now. What the State of Chu thought about was not only to invade the territory and people of the Yue State, but also to seize the passage of the Ten Great Mountains that the Yue State had been controlling all along. The Anting-Shifang Town line has been opened very maturely, and the Chu army drove the adventurers not to completely abandon this route, but precisely because this route has been able to obtain all kinds of materials steadily, and some people have even begun to try to plant some special medicines on the edge of the Shifang Mountain, etc., some people in the high-level of the Chu State want to directly form a huge business group to unify the management of this route. As for the Yong'an frontline, it still needs many years of continuous investment, and it requires a lot of adventurers to sacrifice, and the top management of Chu State feels that it is better to open this road to adventurers. Even if it is necessary to let many people share in the windfall profits that can be obtained by the Ten Directions Mountains in the early stage, it can also reduce the loss of the relatively sophisticated combat power of the Chu State. There are not so many adventurers and outlaws who are exploring on their own in batches, let alone the Chu State, even the powerful Yongguo Kingdom in the north definitely does not have the manpower and material resources to continue to explore.

Yong'an became popular in this special background.

For Geng Yekang, who has lived in Yong'an since he was a child, his life has been getting better and better recently. The two chambers of commerce from Taifeng City rented half of his storehouse and piled up all kinds of supplies purchased from Taifeng and Yong'an, as if they were ready to make a big move. However, the warehouse was only a warehouse after all, and it could only be stacked with some things, and the warehouse could not support horses and other pack animals, nor could it accommodate many people, that is, the few guys who watched the goods did not mind the simplicity of the place, rolling together with blankets and large piles of wood. The person in charge of purchasing and transporting supplies came to the inn every day, but still lived in a nearby inn. Geng Yekang had already heard from the steward that when the large group of men and horses arrived, especially those good men and guides, they would set up camp on a large open space specially set aside in the city, and then they would leave. Do the math, that's what happened in the past few days.

Geng Yekang was worried, when they left, would there still be such a good business in his own store?

Geng Yekang's warehouse was less than thirty steps from the city gate. Across the wall was the guard of the soldiers at the gate of the city. His brother-in-law is in charge of another city gate, and the steward here can be regarded as a bit of incense, with the help of these people, safety is naturally not a problem, and he can often directly turn a few orders of business from the city gate.

Just as he was worried, there was the sound of wheels running over at the city gate.

"This ...... You can't go in!" said one of the soldiers.

"Demon beasts, how can you run around with demon beasts. What if you hurt someone?"

Demon beasts? Geng Yekang was stunned, now there is actually a caravan that can carry demon beasts? What a strong group of people should it be, but are the soldiers stupid, they actually dare to intercept a large caravan that can afford to raise demon beasts?

He turned his head to see that it was not the case. The demon beast is indeed a demon beast, clearly two white tigers with extremely beautiful patterns, and on the cart they are pushing, there are several golden-threaded birds. But this wave of people added up to only a dozen people, pushing several large board cars.

"Master Jun, these demon beasts have been raised for many years. If you're close to us, it won't hurt anyone. You see, how well-behaved these guys are. The old man said, patting one of the big white tigers on the head. The tiger did not look offended at all, but rubbed the old man with his cheek, as if he was coquettish.

"But...... But...... This is a monster. How can you manage just a few of you? If something happens, are you responsible?" the soldier shouted.

"Master Jun, it's impossible for something to happen. You see, this is accommodating us?" the old man shoved a piece into the soldier's arms. Geng Yekang could clearly see that it was actually a demon core! These people were a demon core? Even if it was a low-grade demon core, it wouldn't be cheap now. Although Yong'an is the frontier of Chu State's entry and exit from the Ten Directions Mountain, due to the limited time for development, it is not yet time to be able to harvest the demon core steadily. A highest-grade demon core costs about ten taels of silver. Normally, this kind of demon core is of little use except for some high-level monks to use as a material for experiments. Ten taels of silver, which is too much to bribe the soldiers at the city gate.

"Well, let them in. If you don't worry, then watch it here. Anyway, I guess there are no inns that dare to accept you. Geng Yekang stood up with a smile, took a few steps forward, and said loudly. "Isn't that good?"

When the soldiers heard this, they stopped insisting. If you really want them to guard it, you will definitely not be able to watch it, but anyway, it is right under your nose, at least there is an explanation from above. Moreover, these people have a lot of money, and they can still do some good.

In this way, the group smoothly entered Geng Yekang's warehouse. The stewards of the two chambers of commerce in Taifeng are in the warehouse, and it seems that they have bought a lot of things today, and they have just delivered a batch of arrows, steel bars, oil and so on. The two stewards seem to have a good relationship, and the two adventuring groups have discussed and competed in advance, but they have no taboos with each other, they have always been in and out together, and the purchase of goods is also discussed together, and if the amount of goods is large, it is easy to lower the price. The two stewards were a little knowledgeable, and when they saw that this group of people was actually carrying two jade-spotted tigers and several golden-threaded birds, their eyes were straight all of a sudden.

"Oh, I said, you guys just came out of the mountains? Why are there so many people?" asked a steward in a friendly manner.

"That's how we are. Jiang Mei said: "How many of you are preparing to enter the mountain?"

"Oh, yes. We're here to play the front station. The brigade is coming in the next few days. It just so happens that you are here, and I want to ask you for advice, is there anything special about the mountains lately?"

"Hehe, it's hard to say. Jiang Mei sold Guanzi.

No one will say this kind of thing lightly, some points are related to the operation and results of their respective adventure groups, and some methods are even secrets.

"I understand, I understand, you settle down first, and then let's go to Changqing Building to set up a table. They are all insiders, who doesn't know. Of course, it's a matter of what you can say, and thank God you can avoid some trouble. ”

"Well, who's to say it's not. Jiang Mei said a little smugly: "We live on these demon beasts." That's why I dared to stay in it for a long time. ”

"How long?

"Half a year. Jiang Mei said nonchalantly. This put the two stewards in check.

"You've been able to stay in that place for half a year?" both of them had incredulous expressions.

"Alas, it's good to eat and drink, but there are no herbs. After all, it's impossible not to hurt people. Besides, no matter how many things we have, we can't afford them. Jiang Mei smiled and said, "I'm not afraid of you laughing." We used to be thugs and bodyguards, and we had no way to sell goods. That is, to avoid the military disaster, relying on the demon beasts raised before is still a little able to survive. The two of you have seen the world at first glance, and you can't say that you still have to rely on them. ”

The two stewards gave up their hands one after another and said, "It's easy to say." ”

That's how the atmosphere is lively. Although it seems that there are few people, no one dares to despise these people, except for a few who pull carts and carry them, there are actually several good hands in the excitement period, and the veiled woman is a healer. These people can raise two jade-spotted tigers and a few golden-threaded birds, and they must have come from wealthy families before, although I don't know why they would hide instead of running to the front line to make contributions, but these things don't seem to be what they should be looking into as a business manager. With these people, more than a dozen people can stay in the Shifang Mountains for half a year, that is really capable, and they have to have tricks, with this kind of ability, everyone has to stick to them one by one.

"Oh, it's all a two-way thing, it's easy to say. Jiang Mei happily agreed.

They didn't have much stuff in total, and they were all sorted out with a little order. Then, Jiang Mei went to the two stewards with the gifts, and asked them to take him to the place where the demon core was collected in the city first. also said that their daily expenses and so on are gone, and only a few copper coins are left. This kind of good opportunity to make friends, the two naturally will not miss it, if it weren't for the fact that they themselves are also in the adventure team, it is really inconvenient for them to receive these things that are not too rare, they are directly ready to take this batch of goods.

"Here, this is the market of the largest demon core in Yong'an City, and there is an owner on the first floor inside. The higher the demon core, the higher the level. What are you going to do? Everybody won't break the rules, it's where it should be, it's there. High-grade, even if it is seen by people, he will not dare to accept what he shouldn't accept, and will let you go upstairs. So, whether it's a newcomer or a veteran in this industry, it's basically coming here. ”

Jiang Mei smiled and said, "We have a lot of messy things in our hands, do we go up layer by layer?"

"Oh?" said one of the stewards meaningfully, "it seems that you really have good things in your hands." ”

ps: I still owe two more...... I know, I'll try!
