The vendor didn't expect that the little homeless man who was still swallowing saliva just now would be able to take out such a silver tael in the blink of an eye.

He didn't care where the money came from, but people don't get dirty money.

The vendor immediately put down the long stick in his hand, bent down and picked up the silver on the ground, and said with a smile: "You wait a minute, I'll fill the caramel for you." ”

He only made this caramel today, and if it was in the past, he would have to sell it slowly for two or three days before it was sold out.

It was sold out not long after the stall came out today, so I was really lucky.

The seller's hands moved quickly, and in a few moments, a load of caramelis was cut and divided, and then wrapped in oiled paper.

"Your sugar is ready."

Zhang Yi took the sugar and said lightly: "The caramel is very expensive, but it is impossible to buy this for ten taels of silver, what about the rest of the money, don't you give it to me?" ”

"What is the rest of the money, my load of caramel is ten taels of silver."

The vendor said with a blushing face and a heartbeat.

In his opinion, this little flower can get money like this, it must have been stolen from somewhere, and he clearly wants to eat black.

It's just two small homeless people, and they can't turn over any big flowers.

Zhang Yi's face turned sideways, and he said with a sneer: "Don't ask me where this money came from, just accept it indiscriminately?" All I can say is you, you're so bold. ”

"The sage has a saying, greedy for small profits, and lose big gains. That's what you're talking about. ”

The vendor was slightly stunned.

For ordinary people, there are not many opportunities to be able to read and hyphenate.

At this time, seeing Zhang Yi's exit, he was suddenly a little surprised.

Zhang Yi continued: "I'm not afraid to tell you where I got this money from. I just met the lord of the Wuwang Mansion on the road, and I presented him with the family heirloom sword, and the lord was overjoyed, and gave me two silver taels to do one thing for him. ”

"I didn't expect you to be greedy. Now it just so happens that I don't think I can do what the adults tell me to do, and I just have an excuse. It's all because you, a black-hearted peddler, have broken things. ”

After speaking, Zhang Yi couldn't help laughing.

Seeing that Zhang Yi was so careless and upright, the vendor suddenly felt a little worried.

The young man in front of him, such a speech and demeanor, is definitely not an ordinary family.

Maybe it's a down-and-out nobleman who came from afar, looking for relatives to take refuge.

Whether what he says is true or not, he may not be able to afford to provoke him.

After thinking about it, he finally honestly found the rest of the change.

"It's my money obsession, don't blame the little boy."

Zhang Yi glanced down, and accepted the change found by the vendor as usual.

He then asked, "Where is it convenient to inquire here?" ”

The vendor thought for a moment and replied, "If you want to say that the most well-informed, there is no one more well-informed than those little flowers in the city." They are in groups of three or five, who has cats and how many chickens they have. ”

Zhang Yi nodded and said, "If you understand that you still sell sugar, you are still here, and I will come to buy it." ”

"Okay."

Zhang Yi carried two packets of candy and walked towards an alley with the little girl.

The two of them sat on the ground, took out two pieces of caramel and ate them one by one.

The happiness of sweet juice running down their throats almost made them almost cry.

They haven't eaten for a long time, and now their stomachs are very fragile, and they can't stand the toss of big fish and meat.

Only eat some light foods.

Caramel is just right, as a wheat and other crops to refine, on the one hand, it can supplement some nutrients, on the other hand, it can also nourish the stomach.

After eating a piece of candy, the two of them immediately felt a lot more comfortable.

Although they still felt very hungry in their stomachs, they had a lot of strength, and their complexion and spirit were much better.

At the very least, you won't get tired easily after talking for a long time.

The little girl asked curiously, "Brother, why did you stare at that vendor just now and make a fuss about him?" ”

Zhang Yi explained: "Generally, the people who buy caramel are people from better families, or some small nobles. So this candy seller must have some eyesight and can know what is good or bad. If the other Riba peddlers talk about it, they won't know what is good or bad about you. This is one of them. ”

"Second, we have a lot of money in our hands, and if we go to some stores with a lot of people, I'm afraid it will be easy to attract the attention of other people. There are fewer people who buy candy, and we can be slightly safer. ”

"Of course, the most important thing is that I buy candy for other purposes."

The little girl seemed to understand: "Oh. Also, brother, why do you say nonsense that the adult is from the Martial Prince's Mansion, and you are not afraid of being found out in the end? ”

"Why do you say I'm? Isn't that lord from the Martial Prince's Mansion? ”

"How does brother know? I don't think the adult said it. ”

"The man was seven feet tall, with a white face and no beard, and he was clearly a useless eunuch. On the way, I heard that Yingjun is now the fief of King Wu, and King Wu has arrived in Luling. Who else but around him would use eunuchs? ”

"Brother, you're so smart. No wonder Master said that you will definitely be able to get ahead and become great in the future. The little girl looked at Zhang Yi's eyes, with a faint indescribable light.

"It's hard." Zhang Yi sighed and said: "I have been cultivating for so long, and I only have the martial arts cultivation of the three grades of opening the pulse, and in this life, at most, I can only cultivate to the Tongqi realm." ”

"For example, today, there are many martial arts forces, and they have mastered more than half of the world's heritage. If I want to get ahead, these martial arts forces are obstacles that I can't bypass, which means that I can only take advantage of a certain big man in the future. ”

"It doesn't matter, Master said that everything is prosperous and declining, and there will always be a day when the martial arts power declines. Brother's skills will always be useful. ”

"That's all later, let's find a way to fill our stomachs first."

Zhang Yi's eyes were blazing, and he always felt that this might be an opportunity.

King Nawu He heard that he was not powerful in the palace, but in the end, he was a royal identity.

Now that there is no better choice, this martial king is a good refuge.

"You're almost rested, aren't you? Let's go, let's go to run errands with my brother. Zhang Yi got up and patted his ass and said.

He walked down the street with the caramel in his hand, and then observed in a restaurant near the house of a rich man.

Zhang Yi saw three or four beggars guarding the door, looking at the many nobles coming in and out of the restaurant.

Every time someone came out, they knelt on the ground and kowtowed, asking for a reward.

Occasionally, you can get a few copper coins.

Other than that, there were no other big beggars involved.

He found a place that was not too conspicuous and sat down with the little girl.

Then he spread out the sugar in the oiled paper and ate it in front of these little beggars.

An unkempt little beggar noticed Zhang Yi and hurriedly turned his elbow with his little friend.

When they saw Zhang Yi eating with relish, they couldn't help but move their throats slightly and swallow and foam.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Zhang Yi motioned to a few beggars to let them come over and eat candy.

These beggars, overjoyed, couldn't wait to run over to Zhang Yi's side.

Under Zhang Yi's seemingly relaxed expression, his muscles were already tensed, ready to deal with sudden situations at any time.

His current physical strength is a bit difficult to deal with adult adults, but it should be more than enough to deal with these little beggars.

Zhang Yi smiled and said, "Do you want to eat?" If you want to eat, you can take it yourself. ”

The beggars looked at each other and went to grab it with their hands open.

However, their actions are not as good as Zhang Yi's.

Just as they stretched out their hands, Zhang Yi immediately put away the caramel in his hand again, and let them catch an empty one.

"However, I have a condition here." Zhang Yi said: "Each of you says a piece of news that you have recently inquired about, and I think it is useful, you can eat a piece of candy." ”

The little beggar said happily: "I know I know, Aunt Wang on the street has raised seven chickens, and they are fat, and I stole one last time." ”

After finishing speaking, the little beggar looked at Zhang Yi with anticipation.

After Zhang Yi heard it, he shook his head and said, "This is not news that is useful to me, I don't need it, so there is no sugar." ”

The little beggar was a little depressed.

"It's all a fart, there are three of us, and he robbed him alone."

Some beggars suddenly turned abrupt and had a bad idea.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Yi kicked him in the middle of his crotch, so that he didn't even have a chance to react.

In an instant, the beggar fell to the ground, curled up together, unable to speak in pain.

"I've practiced martial arts, you can't beat me, I suggest you still follow my requirements honestly, otherwise, there will be no sugar." Zhang Yi's golden knife sat on the stone pier, so that these little beggars did not dare to be presumptuous for an instant.

The other two little beggars began to bow their heads and think.

Zhang Yi said: "You can talk about something related to the martial arts forces. ”

A little beggar's eyes lit up and he said, "Oh, I know that." Not long ago, the elders of the Tiger Shark Gang were shaken out of the ashes, and then the Heavenly Thunder Sect also destroyed a village and took all the fertile land in that village as their own. ”

Zhang Yi nodded and said, "This news is very useful to me, you can get two pieces of sugar." ”

After speaking, Zhang Yi spread out the oil paper and took out two pieces of candy for the beggar.

The beggar stuffed two pieces of caramel into his mouth, fearing that someone else would snatch it, and saw the other beggar scratch his ears and cheeks.

"Now you can also see that I am more interested in the martial arts forces in Luling, you can inquire about the martial arts forces in Luling and even Ying County as soon as possible, I will come again tomorrow, you can exchange the news for sugar."

"Really?"

Zhang Yi snorted coldly and said, "Is it any use for me to lie to you?" ”

The little beggar thought about it, and it was true.

They all have nothing, and they have to rely on other people's handouts to survive, so what is there to deceive each other.

For a while, they became eager to try.

"Also, don't let the big beggars know, or I won't come."

"Uh-huh."

After speaking, Zhang Yi did not stop, and went to several other places in turn to repeat the old tricks.

After such a toss, both the Zhang Yi brothers and sisters felt a little tired.

I happened to eat a lot of sugar, supplemented the nutrients, and the stomach and intestines were also relieved.

So, Zhang Yi felt that it was almost over, so he took the little girl to find a stall, ate two bowls of boiled noodles, took a bath in the river, bought clean clothes, and dressed himself up again.

In the evening of the same day, Zhang Yi also found a small inn and lay on the bed to rest.

The next day, he went to the sugar seller again to buy sugar, bought some pen and paper, and began to collect information from the beggars.

Zhang Yi was very cautious, and when he saw a big beggar there, he would not show his head.

He will only appear when all the little beggars are left.

After three days in a row, after his unremitting efforts, he finally got a rough idea of the martial arts forces of nearly 100 families in Luling and even Ying County.

Some places were too exaggerated, he either went to the scene to observe it in person, or he was near those martial arts forces, pretending to learn from his master and re-verifying it.

In the end, it took another day to make a rough sort of the information he had collected according to the background of the martial arts forces, word of mouth, and the good and evil things he had done recently, and set it into a booklet.

Finally, on the fifth day, he arrived early at the agreed place.

And Gao Yanshi was also very punctual and came as promised.

When Gao Yanshi saw Zhang Yi again, he couldn't help but show a surprised expression.

At this time, Zhang Yi had already changed into clean clothes, except for his skin being a little dark and rough, he couldn't contact the homeless people at all.

Zhang Yi noticed Gao Yanshi, took the initiative to step forward, took out the booklet he had collected, and offered it with both hands: "My lord, Xiaomin is fortunate not to be dishonored. ”

Gao Yanshi suspiciously picked up the booklet handed over by Zhang Yi and found that it recorded the distribution of martial arts forces in Ying County large and small.

Not only that, but there is a general list of who else is on an errand in the yamen.

Even if he is not highly educated, he can understand it.

Talent.

Definitely a talent.

"Good, good." Gao Yanshi said three good words in a row.

This Zhang Yi brought him a lot of surprises.

Gao Yanshi was not stingy, and immediately took out ten taels of silver and said: "This is a reward for you, do it well, I will walk here every five days in the future, and you can tell me any valuable news." ”

Zhang Yi knew that he was hugging a thigh for the time being, and he said happily: "Thank you for giving Xiaomin the opportunity." ”

"Do it well." Gao Yanshi took the booklet in his arms and turned to leave.

Zhang Yi looked at the silver ingots in his hand and shook them excitedly.

Wuwang Mansion.

Zhao Hongming took the pamphlet presented by Gao Yanshi and read it carefully.

He couldn't help but show a look of surprise on his face.

In this booklet, the martial arts forces that are named by name in Yingjun are listed, and there are also some important officials in the yamen.

It is very detailed.

Zhao Hongming praised: "In just a few days, you can do this level, and you really did a good job." ”

Hearing Zhao Hongming's praise, Gao Yanshi's heart suddenly burst into flames: "This is what a slave should do, as long as he can help His Highness." Your Highness, what do you do next? Is it to solve the Flying Crane Gate? I see that Feihemen does all kinds of evil, and its reputation in Luling is very bad. ”

"What are you going to do when you take the Flying Crane Gate?" Zhao Hongming put the booklet on the table and said, "This king's first target is the Iron Tiger Gang. ”

"The Iron Tigers?" Gao Yanshi was a little puzzled.

Judging from the information he had gathered, this sect seemed to be in a thriving stage, and he hadn't done too many things that people were angry about.

Zhao Hongming smiled and said, "Because they are the fattest among the most rookie martial arts forces." ”
