Chapter 12: The First Experience of Entering the City

After 3 days of marching, Ma Chao and his entourage arrived at the periphery of Cangyan County, and saw the county seat of Cangyan County, Ma Chao felt a little formal, as if it was a primitive society, and saw that the county was surrounded by a city wall of up to 5 meters, and the city wall was surrounded by soldiers standing guard, and there was only one city gate on the entire back for people to enter and exit, and there were soldiers at the city gate to check and charge for each person who entered and exited, so it was not lively.

"Every county town is like this?" Ma Chao said as he turned his head back to stare at Wei Ran

"Well, all the county seats in Chiyang County are all like this, with such a structure, each city is divided into four gates, east, west, north and south, and you need to pay 2 yuan every time you enter and leave the city. Hearing Wei Ran's explanation, Ma Chao nodded slightly, Wei Ran also felt a little pressure, his cheap boss, the pressure on himself was getting bigger and bigger, he was originally a child but he was able to do it more than his old fritters who had lived for more than 30 years, and he didn't dare to hide it, as if he knew what he knew.

After Wei Ran finished speaking, Ma Chao and a few people, after paying the fee of 8 yuan, entered Cangyan County, and only after entering did he feel the liveliness inside, many people on both sides of the road were setting up stalls to sell, and many outsiders also chose to buy and sell here, the most important thing is that there is a comprehensive hotel for each section of the journey, downstairs to eat, upstairs to stay. The most terrifying thing is that Ma Chao actually saw the Qinglou, the name is very good, "Yanchun Building", Ma Chao defined the boss of the Qinglou as a cultural person.

Looking at all kinds of scenery, Ma Chao and a few people walked around for two hours, feeling hungry, so they stopped and found a hotel with a large number of people to ask for two rooms, and then began to eat below, because the first time they entered the city, the thin monkey and Ma Liang seemed very excited, and on the other hand, Wei Ran turned a deaf ear, Ma Chao turned a deaf ear, maybe it was not time for Wei Ran to tell him about it, but Ma Chao believed that as long as the time came, it would definitely come out.

However, the cost of this hotel is also quite expensive, the cost of a day is 1 hanging money, this is not counting the cost of eating, a few hours to go down, Ma Chao's biggest feeling is that the price is soaring, than the price of Shitun is not a grade at all, after eating Ma Chao took Ma Liang, Wei Ran and the thin monkey together, each went back to the house to rest, after all, he has been on the road, and he has been shopping for two hours with joy just now in the county, and now he is exhausted, and he goes to bed after eating.

The next morning, early in the morning, Ma Chao had already gone out, and began to walk outside for nearly 1 hour, and then bought some breakfast back to the hotel, at this time a few people just got up, and felt embarrassed after seeing Ma Chao, Ma Chao didn't care, a few people came to Ma Chao's room to sit down and start eating breakfast, and after breakfast, Ma Chao began to explain the current plan.

First: Find a remote location in the county to buy a house, as the foundation for the development of Cangyan County, but the hotel is definitely not possible, it is inconvenient to do things, this matter is responsible for Wei Ran, and it takes 3 days to see the results.

Second: Find out all the beggar forces and the information of the person in charge in Cangyan County, plus all the information about the private school and school in Cangyan County, if you want to develop, no one will definitely not succeed, and the personnel in these two directions can be used, this matter is in charge of the thin monkey, and you need to see results within 5 days.

Third: Count the categories and numbers of all the small shops and small traders in Cangyan County, and may need to do business with them in the future, which is the responsibility of Ma Liang, and the statistics need to be completed within 10 days.

After speaking, Ma Chao will be with one of them every day, and guide them at the same time, and Ma Chao will arrange freely the rest of the time.

Less than 2 days after arranging things, Wei Ran has already achieved results, there are currently 3 good choices in the county, and the homeowners want to sell the house as soon as possible, the first area is small, the asking price is 25 taels of silver, but there is a big road in front of the door. The second area is medium-priced, 20 taels, the reason why it is cheap is mainly because the house is a little old, it is a house handed down from the ancestors, and the geographical location is also average. The third area is twice as expensive as the first one, and the price is 35 taels because it is at the back of the green building, so the location is not very good, so the price is cheap.

After listening to Wei Ran's report, Ma Chao stared at Wei Ran and asked, "Which one do you think is suitable?"

Wei Ran knew that Ma Chao was testing himself, thought for a while and said: "Second, because we are just looking for a place to live, there may be more people in the future, it should not be too small, and we will not do business at home, so the road feels indifferent, and at the same time, if it is too close to the Qinglou, it feels a little chaotic, which is not conducive to our development."

Ma Chao nodded slightly after listening, and then said: "Whether it is doing business or learning about intelligence, the best place is to gather a lot of people. The second is a brothel, no scholar, a gentleman, a resettler, or a flat-headed people, princes and nobles, before the human nature is not extinguished, go to the kiln, listen to a song, and then go to bed, it will be a common thing, and it will naturally come out after more experience, even if the mouth is tight, the kiln will leak more, this is a better source than the teahouse, more accurate and true, but the cost of obtaining is longer, but it is not worth it. You get the idea, right?"

After Wei Ran heard this, he suddenly felt cold sweat on his body, and at this time he had an illusion in the face of Ma Chao, he was not a child in front of him, but a prince and nobleman who held the power of life and death, this indifference and self-confidence, he had only seen it in his grandfather. Then unconsciously said: "The subordinates understand".

Ma Chao smiled and said to Wei Ran: "Oh! Your subordinate doesn't look like a beggar, hahahaha...... If you know it, do it."

Wei Ran left, but it didn't take long for him to come back, bringing Ma Chao's name with Ma Chao on the deed, and then telling Ma Chao that under his efforts, the seller only took a few valuable things, and the rest was not moved, so we can move over directly. Ma Chao and Wei Ran looked at the house together, the house was just behind the Qinglou, and there was a teahouse and a hotel next to the Qinglou, Ma Chao was quite satisfied with this location, the two of them tidied up the place together, and then asked Wei Ran to go to the hotel to wait for Ma Liang and the thin monkey, and he was waiting for them at home, and he moved over tonight.

After Wei Ran left, Ma Chao stood alone in the courtyard, looking at the Qinglou in front of him and listening to the Yingying Yanyan inside, then turned his head to the screaming beast on his shoulder and asked: "Who do you say he is, why hasn't he heard from him until now?" Seeing that the screaming beast did not reply, but stared at the Qinglou, he smiled bitterly again, and said to himself: "When did you say that we will be able to accept this Qinglou, by the way, the teahouse next to it will also be accepted, maybe you can know who he is, and there is still little news now." , Hearing the beast called here, he shouted directly at Ma Chao: "Haw chirp chirp ...... chirp", Ma Chao was speechless for a moment, you can't speak human words?

However, Ma Chao didn't see it, and the beast's vision when he saw Qinglou was different from other things, but he put a fine light, and such a fine light caused a lot of helpless trouble to Ma Chao in the future.
