Chapter 22: The Delayed Recruitment

The next day, Zhang Xiaosheng got up early, washed up, changed clothes, changed into a new white shirt, and brought a family heirloom jade pendant under the service of Cai Meng and Ning Lian,......

As the saying goes, people rely on clothes, horses rely on saddles, and with such a dress, Zhang Xiaosheng suddenly became a lot more handsome, with fluttering white clothes and a talent. The little girl is a loyal fan of Zhang Xiaosheng, and she is full of confidence in Zhang Xiaosheng, in their words, the eldest lady of the martial arts family will definitely make a promise when she sees it.

Of course, Zhang Xiaosheng will not take it seriously, compared to the girl's optimistic state of mind, at this time, Zhang Xiaosheng's heart is not easy, there is a little melancholy and dazed, expectation and worry, yesterday's events are still vivid, and I always feel that today will not be too smooth.

After meeting Steward Zhang, Zhang Xiaosheng and the others walked towards the General's Mansion.

It's early in the morning, the sun is shining, and the streets are already full of traffic.

When you are in the middle of the street, you will feel a strong sense of impact, which is completely different from looking at it from above. The shops on both sides of the road are full of people, and people with different accents and even languages are constantly commenting on the dazzling array of goods with the customs of various countries on the shelves, mixed with the introduction of the stores, and the sound of bargaining, which not only does not make people feel bored, but makes people especially enjoy the collision and intersection of cultures and customs of various countries.

Although there are different pedestrians on the street, in general, young men and women account for the majority, and they are heading in one direction in twos and threes, which seems to be the direction of the General's Mansion, and it seems that they are all holding the same year as Zhang Xiaosheng.

The two little girls looked around vigilantly, obviously treating them as young master's competitors, and their expressions were very similar to cows protecting calves, which made people want to laugh, but their hearts warmed.

Several people followed the flow of people, and unconsciously came to the square in front of the general's mansion.

"What a square!" Looking at the square in front of him, Zhang Xiaosheng let out a heartfelt exclamation.

A large square, covering an area of about dozens of acres in size, is paved with thick bluestone slabs, and at a glance, it gives people a sense of neatness and majesty. Surrounded by a circle of towering stone pillars, the relief knives on them are rough and clear, giving people a sense of desolation. In the center of the stone pillar, there is a black tiger about five meters long, roaring in the sky, which is the symbol of the Black Yao Empire, the Black Yao Fierce Tiger. Just behind the black and fierce tiger, a big ring was built on the flat bluestone slab, with colorful flags fluttering and red carpets paved, which should undoubtedly be a ring for relatives.

Strangely, the ring was empty, in stark contrast to the bustling crowd off the stage.

"What's going on?"

"Where are the people?"

"That's it, that's it, when is it, why is there still no movement!"

"What's the matter, I'm here from the south of the Empire. ”

......

From time to time, there were various discussions and complaints in the crowd, and it was obvious that everyone did not know the reason, and they all seemed very anxious.

Just when the crowd became more and more restless, an old man stepped into the ring, although his hair was gray, but he looked straight back and steady footsteps, he knew that he must be a fierce general when he was young. He cleared his throat and said, "Everyone, I'm really sorry, due to some reasons, this recruitment conference has been postponed to three days later, I hope you will forgive me." In order to compensate you, all those who have come from all over the world, my general's mansion is fully responsible for all the food and clothing in Fengyun City in the past few days. Here, on behalf of the General's Mansion, I solemnly announce to you that the recruitment conference will be held as scheduled in three days, and I hope you will have a good time in Fengyun City these days!"

After speaking, he turned around and hurried away, as if he was in a hurry.

There was an uproar in the audience, and many people were complaining. However, there are also some people who are quite happy, and they are all here to see the fun. Although the excitement has been postponed, it doesn't matter if you wait for two days, not to mention that there is free food and drink, anyway, there are not many such good things.

There was no excitement to see, and everyone dispersed.

"Do you know this, there is an inside story about this postponement!"

"Brother Tian, do you actually know?"

"That is, my cousin's aunt's son's eldest nephew's uncle is on an errand in the General's Palace, and he revealed it to me, it must be accurate!"

"Brother Tian, tell me quickly. ”

"Yes, Brother Tian, don't lose our appetite. The person next to him couldn't help urging.

"As you know, this time, the eldest lady of the martial arts family recruited relatives and invited young talents from the empire to come. However, the samurai family seems to have underestimated the influence of the samurai eldest lady, and heard that there were many young talents in their own country this time, and the news spread to neighboring countries, and many countries informed the shogun's palace one after another, hoping to postpone it for a few days, so that the young talents in their country could come to participate in the recruitment. Since the scope of the inviter was not announced in advance, the samurai family was not easy to refuse, so they had no choice but to postpone it!"

"Miss Wu is the goddess of her country, how can she let the people of other countries get involved!"

"It's hateful!"

“......”

Several young people walked past Zhang Xiaosheng, and their conversation happened to fall into Zhang Xiaosheng's ears word for word.

"Talented people from other countries,...... It seems that this trick is getting more and more interesting, but I just need to achieve my goal!" Although I don't know whether the news is true or not, Zhang Xiaosheng is fearless, and it seems that he has his own way in his chest.

"Young Master, why don't we go to Fengyun Market and have a look!" Cai Meng suddenly said excitedly.

"Young Master, I heard that no matter what strange things can be seen in the Fengyun Market!" Even Ning Lian was full of anticipation.

"Closed Cloud Market?"

"Young master, you don't know, do you!"

Before Zhang Xiaosheng could react, Cai Meng explained in a chatter. Under the repeated bombardment of the two little girls, Zhang Xiaosheng gradually understood.

Fengyun Bazaar, one of the three major bazaars in the Black Yao Empire, is also the only one far from the bustling place of the imperial capital. I heard that all of this was made possible by the samurai lady.

Back then, the master of the martial family, Wu Tianfeng was born and died for the empire, and repelled the attacks of the surrounding powers many times, which can be said to have laid a solid foundation for the empire's prosperity today. Wu Tianfeng, who had made great achievements in war, should have been honored and honored in the imperial capital, and his descendants were blessed. However, Wu Tianfeng refused Emperor Heiyao's reward, and offered to garrison Fengyun City, which was still extremely desolate at that time and was often attacked by other countries. This act was a surprise to many powerful people at the time.

After coming to Fengyun City, the rise of the eldest lady of the martial family seemed to replace her elderly father, and many important matters were handed over to her, and Wu Tianfeng seemed to be hidden behind the scenes and enjoyed Qingfu. The eldest lady of the martial family did not disappoint her father, not only maintained the stability of the border, but also managed the originally desolate Fengyun City into the current prosperity in just a few years.

Some people had speculated that perhaps this was the real purpose of Wu Tianfeng's request to come to Cloud City.

"Since it's okay, it's good to go and take a look, maybe ......"

Seeing that the young master agreed, the two girls jumped up excitedly.

The group walked towards the market, and in a short time they came to the market.

The two little girls happily looked at a small stall, and kept chattering and discussing, and they never got tired of it.

Zhang Xiaosheng looked at the two of them, the two of them were patronizing the jewelry stalls, the trinkets of different customs from various countries, all small and exquisite, exquisite craftsmanship, shining dazzling brilliance in the sun, beautiful, it seems that it is difficult for girls to escape its temptation.

"This is the real purpose of their market!" Zhang Xiaosheng looked at the busy two with black lines on their heads.

Steward Zhang stood quietly behind a few people, seemingly uninterested in everything around him.

Zhang Xiaosheng saw that the second daughter didn't care about herself, and felt bored, so she also looked at the surrounding stalls.

What strange ores, strange herbs, strange animals, feathers, animal eggs, dead branches, really everything, as long as everything is strange, weird, and unclear about the function, it will appear here, and it is really a good place for Taobao.

While walking and looking, suddenly his eyes lit up, and Zhang Xiaosheng found a strange stall......
