Seventy-one heart-to-heart words
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Walking on the street, you can gradually see the tents set up on both sides, you don't need to look closely, just smell the pungent medicinal smell, you know that you are selling herbs and the like.
But to be honest, if these medicinal materials are fried on the fire, they can have a clear and bitter and eternal medicinal fragrance, and the various medicinal flavors of the medicinal materials alone cannot be talked about a "fragrant" word, and because they are mixed and impure, dragons and snakes are mixed together, and they are often very pungent.
It seems that the traders at these stalls are all merchants who do not know martial arts, the goods are all ordinary herbs, the goods are sold by the car, and the price negotiation also relies on "hand-holding", which is no different from the bulk goods trading market outside.
Meng Shuai and the others are not here, and they go all the way to the center.
After walking for a while, I saw a large sign in the center of the street with the word "C" written on it.
With the arrival of Area C, the shops on both sides of the street gradually opened. These shops usually exist, and I don't know if they are grain stores, hotels, and grocery stores, but now they have been requisitioned by the Guo family, and they have all done medicinal material trading.
The people who are active in Area C are probably martial arts people, and naturally they are just ordinary martial artists, with shy chests and belly, big shoulders and round waists, carrying bags one by one, taking money from them, and trading in cash. The price of a herb can be sold for a few taels or even dozens of taels of silver, which is enough for the people outside to eat and drink for a year.
Walking further inside, you can see the huge "B" character. On the contrary, there were fewer shops on both sides, and only eight on the left and right sides remained. Each one is not just a pharmacy, but an exquisite liquor store, with a plaque hanging in front of the building, indicating which one operates here. Raise your eyes to look in, but see that the tables and chairs inside are neat and tidy, the tea is fragrant, only a few people sit opposite each other and talk, not as if they are talking about business, but like tasting tea.
I heard Jiang Qi suddenly speak: "Brother Zhu, what do you think of here?"
Zhu Qiang said: "Backed by the mountains, facing the plains, the terrain is flat, and there is a slight low-lying in the middle, which is really easy to attack and difficult to defend. ”
Jiang Qi smiled and said, "On the other hand, this place is suitable for ambushes and encirclements. ”
Meng Shuai secretly despised the scenery and said: Dasha scenery.
When they walked further, they saw a mansion in front of them, with a high wall. The outside was fenced with an ironwood fence, and two maidens in scarlet clothes acted as guards at the door. The tallest house in the mansion has five floors, and it is magnificently renovated, and it is the mansion of the local rich gentry before I think it was, and it was requisitioned by the Guo family.
Jiang Qi said: "This is the first-class one." Let's go inside and have a look. The person we're looking for is inside. ”
At that moment, a few people went in with gilded invitations, and two young girls saluted, and one of them asked, "Do you want to change your clothes?"
Jiang Qi touched Meng Shuai, Meng Shuai was stunned, and then asked, "Sister, why do you still need to change clothes?" He also reacted quickly, the three of them didn't know the rules of this Medicine Immortal Society at all, and they were clearly three little whites, but if they asked indiscriminately, it was easy to miss a flaw. Among the three, only Meng Shuai was a child, and it didn't matter if he asked anything, so Jiang Qi let him speak.
One of the girls smiled, "Some guests don't want to show their faces in front of people, so they wear cloaks, and we rent cloaks in the venue." ”
Meng Shuai said: "How many people will wear cloaks?"
The girl said, "There must be one out of ten." ”
Meng Shuai said: "That's not wearing it, but it's conspicuous?"
The girl pursed her lips and smiled, "Yes." But no one knows who they are, and the goal has been achieved. ”
Jiang Qi said, "We don't need to change clothes. ”
The girl smiled and said, "So, please come in." ”
The three of them entered the hall from the front hall, and as soon as they entered the door, the sound of huge silk bamboo gongs and drums came, accompanied by the chanting of someone clinging to each other, which shook people's eardrums.
Meng Shuai said: "I didn't expect that there was still a big drama here." Because his voice was so noisy, he didn't even hear him say this, he roared again, and the girl next to him replied, "Yes." This drama is the best Sanxi class in Liangzhou City, and it is the most lively martial arts, from morning to night, all day long. ”
Meng Shuai wanted to say something, but Gu Nian was too tired to talk, so he stopped.
I turned the screen, but I saw a large hall full of round tables. There are no more than three or five seats per table. There was no one at the table for the most part.
But this is not to say that there is no one in the hall, on the contrary, the people are so black and oppressive that they can barely stand on their feet. It's just that they don't sit at the table, but stand on the ground in groups of three or five and talk. On both sides of the hall, on one side is a huge stage, with figures in the sound of gongs and drums, and on the other side are several large tables of eight immortals, which are full of melons and fruits.
Meng Shuai glanced at it, and roughly counted, this form setting is a bit like a standing cocktail party in later generations, everyone leaves their seats to socialize, and no one gets in the way. The so-called business is determined in this conversation.
He thought to himself: No wonder there is a big show, everyone has to talk about business, and they are afraid that others will hear it, so they must put on a big background music. There are so many gongs and drums, even if they are face-to-face, it is difficult to hear them, let alone other people. However, martial arts students have very smart ears, and if you want to really isolate your ears and eyes, you still need to bundle the sound into a line, or simply use gestures to make a gesture in the sleeve. It's just a matter of creating a psychologically safe environment.
One of the girls took out the jade plate, handed it to Jiang Qi and Zhu Qiang respectively, groaned for a while, took another one, together with a rouge pen, and gave it to Meng Shuai, and said with a smile: "This is for you." If you have anything to buy or sell, write it on it. When the time comes, hang the sign, and people will come and talk when they see what you have written. Don't fool anyone, little ghost. ”
Meng Shuai said: "This brand is so short, I can't write a few words." ”
The girl said, "Write four words." Enough is enough. That's the way we're here, and we're not selling cloth outside, so we still have to shout a long list? Don't write four words, and you're going to make people laugh. Saying that, he patted him with a smile, saluted Jiang Qi and the two, and the two girls retreated together.
Jiang Qi turned his finger around the jade plate and said, "It's a shame that Xiao Meng looks pleasing, otherwise how could we know so much?"
Meng Shuai said: "Yes, I really committed the peach blossom, and it is difficult to give up on myself." ”
Jiang Qi laughed and quipped: "If I were ten years younger, how could you steal the limelight from me?"
Meng Shuai said: "If you are ten years younger, am I not only three years old? ”
Zhu Qiang coughed, glared at Meng Shuai, and signaled him not to be too open-mouthed.
Jiang Qi saw Zhu Qiang's signal, shook his head slightly, and then stopped talking about this topic, and said, "Xiao Meng, Brother Zhu." Whatever you want, write it on it. When the time comes, you will find the government to report the account. ”
Meng Shuai said: "What if not?"
Jiang Qi said: "Then you be flexible and help me find Brother Fu in the crowd." If you find it, don't make a noise, don't go up to recognize each other, and come back quietly to tell me. Brother Zhu, you also go shopping. ”
Meng Shuai and Zhu Qiang dispersed. The hall was crowded with people, and Meng Shuai relied on his small body to shuttle through the crowd with ease. But he didn't dare to crowd too much, you must know that the one who can enter the lobby must be a martial arts expert, and he doesn't know which one he collided with, and he was pinched to death.
Although the hall is large, it is actually indoor after all, even if the flow of people has formed a barrier for a period of time, Meng Shuai has also walked around for half an hour. Not to mention Fu Jinshui, even the people who are familiar to others, including Guo Baolian, Guo Baocha and other people from the Guo family, have not seen it, but the jade plaques on each person's body are written in a variety of ways, and all kinds of names are dizzying, which is dazzling.
After a while, he almost walked back to the original point, Jiang Qi was no longer in place, but Zhu Qiang was nearby, standing against the wall, from his point of view, he could just look around the whole scene and overlook the overall situation.
Meng Shuai's heart moved, and he walked over and said, "Senior Zhu." ”
Zhu Qiang still stared at the hall and said, "Found someone?"
Meng Shuai spread his hands and said, "I didn't find it." What about the seniors?"
Zhu Qiang said: "I'm looking for it." ”
Meng Shuai hesitated for a moment and said, "Thank you seniors for reminding you just now." ”
Zhu Qiang said: "What?"
Meng Shuai said: "Thank you for reminding me just now. Just now I ...... Well, that's a bit out of proportion. ”
When Zhu Qiang heard this, he glanced at him, showed a rare smile, and said, "You are young, and you are also the age when you have no scruples." The young marshal will not take it to heart. He groaned slightly, and then said: "Our young marshal was born in the army, but there is no shelf. Everyone is commensurate with each other, and they usually joke with each other. I'm afraid that you children are used to it and are too wanton. When you are young, it is time to learn to be cautious. Although the young marshal doesn't pay attention to it, sometimes, taking a step forward or retreating is just a matter of detail. He had always been reticent, and seldom said such long passages, but he did it word for word.
Meng Shuai arched his hand and said, "Thank you for your advice." But he was a little worried in his heart, and said secretly: This is the education of mixed officialdom, rub, if it continues like this, will I really want to mix in their system for a long time?
Thinking about it, he took out his jade plate and said, "Take this senior." I don't have anything I want, and if my predecessors are useful, I won't be idle. ”
Zhu Qiang smiled again, and after taking it, he bent down and hung it on his chest, saying, "It's not necessary." I didn't have anything I wanted. What kind of medicine immortal will look very powerful, in the eyes of the Governor's Mansion, but it is just a country market, you will know when you look back. ”
Meng Shuai looked around the field and suddenly said, "Senior, I saw someone with a sign that said a special product of the Great Wilderness, what does that mean?"
Zhu Qiang's face changed color suddenly, and he said, "Have you seen clearly?"
Meng Shuai pointed to the northeast corner and said, "That's over there." There was a man sitting at the innermost table, not talking to anyone else, nor standing up, but he was sitting there alone, with a jade plaque on the table. ”
Zhu Qiang said: "This matter needs to be told to the young marshal." "Hurried into the crowd.
When he left, Meng Shuai said, "There is no one now." Come on, what did you just keep signaling me for?"
