The two entered the city through the west gate, although it was still early, but the street was already full of all kinds of stalls, shouting and shouting were mixed together, through the early morning fog was spread far away, and the pedestrians on the road gradually increased, and the whole street was like a market scene.

"Buns...... Steamed buns, newly released meat buns, thin skin and many fillings. ”
"Eggs, selling eggs, just pulled out of the hen's coop!"
"Fresh fish and shrimp, guest officer, look, this shrimp is still alive, you want to buy it!"
Zhang Jingsheng looked at the sky is still early, Saihuatuo's pharmacy may not have opened yet, this street is a morning market, it is better to take a stroll here, just to see if there are river eels for sale.
The two of them walked down the street, following Zhang Jingsheng, looking east and west, he was very curious about these things, and for a while he picked up an egg from someone else's basket and looked at it, and then caught a crab from someone's bucket to take a look. even picked up other people's things and left, so that Zhang Jingsheng had to apologize to others.
Zhang Jingsheng saw that it was not a way to go on like this, so he pulled the Qi Prison to his side, and whispered in his ear: "Big brother, the things here can't be taken indiscriminately, they are all hard worked by people to get them, and they are sold here. ”
"Money, Lord, what is money?"
"Ah...... You don't even know what money is, do you?" Zhang Jingsheng looked at the prison in surprise, then took out a copper coin and a piece of broken silver from the money bag on his body, and explained to the prison: " This round, there is a square hole in the middle of the thing called copper coin, a copper coin is a penny, this small piece of white thing is called silver, a tael of silver is a thousand copper coins, the things here are taken by others, if you want, you have to ask the person clearly, how much money is needed, after paying the money to others, people are willing to give things, otherwise people will not give you, understand?"
"Oh......" Qi firmly agreed as if he didn't understand, and then wondered: "In the past, when I was with the old master, if I wanted anything, I just took it directly, and it wasn't so complicated at that time!"
"Big brother, was that good before? Now you have to pay for it, and there is a price, if you want to buy something, the seller will tell you to give him a few, don't give them all." ”
While he was talking, Zhang Jingsheng suddenly heard a shout in the crowd: "River eel, the river eel that has just been caught from the river! The meat is so delicious that it can also replenish the deficiency and nourish the blood, and you won't feel tired after eating it five times a night!"
Someone next to him quipped: "Hey, the river eel seller, your river eel is so good, it's better to take it home and eat it yourself, you are so thin, you should make up for it, hehe!"
"I want to too, but it's useless for me to eat alone, mainly because I have nowhere to vent my fire. ”
The conversation between the two caused a burst of laughter from the people next to him, Zhang Jingsheng followed the laughter, and saw a wooden basin in front of a thin young man, and several river eels were swimming in the wooden basin, sometimes rolling up and down, sometimes a lot of bubbles came out of his mouth, and sometimes he struggled and splashed a little.
Zhang Jingsheng walked over, and was about to ask how much the price was, but before he could open his mouth, he suddenly heard a person shouting loudly behind him: "Hey, the river eel seller, I want all your river eels!"
Then, Zhang Jingsheng felt that someone hit him the shoulder, stumbled, and almost fell, and when he looked back, he saw a burly guy with three or five thick looks coming menacingly, and pushed many people aside.
The strong man walked over to the tub, squatted down and grabbed all the river eels from the tub, put them in the bag he had brought, and then turned and left. ...,
The river eel seller saw the strong man behaving like this, isn't this openly robbing things in broad daylight, this is okay, the river eel seller was in a hurry, and hurriedly chased after him, and grabbed the man: "Hey, guest officer, you don't seem to have given money!"
"What, I still have to pay for my purchases? Boy, are you new here, why didn't you ask who I was before you came? I took your things, you gave face, you know?" the strong man yelled at the river eel seller.
The river eel seller saw that this guy had robbed him of his things, and he was really shameless to talk to him so loudly, so he was not to be outdone, and said loudly: "No matter who you are, you will always give money when you take other people's things, even if the county master comes." ”
"Hehe, boy, I really let you say it, it was the county master who asked me to get the river eel, how about it, you let it go, if you don't let go, hum, don't blame me Wu Huaide is not polite to you, didn't you ask who I am before you came?"
"It doesn't matter who you are, you guy is still so arrogant when he takes my things, let's talk about it, does this guy have any heavenly reason?" At this time, there were more and more onlookers, and when they heard the young man who sold river eels say this, they all accused this tall man who robbed river eels, but when everyone heard that guy was called Wu Huaide, everyone didn't dare to say it.
Because everyone knows this guy named Wu Huaide, especially these business people, he is often bullied by him, this guy is the most famous bully in Ruian City, he is often abducted and deceived everywhere, forced to buy and sell, and the bad things are done.
It's a pity that God doesn't have long eyes, and always lets the bad guys live a comfortable life, and now this Wu Huaide relies on his father to have a little money, and he actually found him an errand at the back door of the county office, which boosted his courage, and became more and more presumptuous in Ruian City, and everyone hated it in their eyes.
Even so, everyone still doesn't dare to offend him, for fear that this guy will retaliate, everyone is thinking, I can't afford to provoke him.
The thin guy who sold river eels grabbed the bag containing the river eel at this time, pulled it hard, and shouted loudly: "You guy is actually swaggering and deceiving everywhere under the guise of the county master, even if the county master comes to buy it, it will cost money." Come on, come and catch this bully!" But no matter how hard he tried, the bag didn't move in Wu Huaide's hand.
Wu Huaide was a little annoyed and angry at this time, he wanted to go away quickly, otherwise the more people gathered, the more he would be excused.
Wu Huaide grabbed the clothes on the chest of the young man who sold river eels, and then lifted the whole person up with force, and the young man was lifted by him so that his feet were off the ground, and his feet suddenly kicked in the air, and his mouth shouted: "You...... What do you want to do, you want to beat someone after you rob something?
I only heard Wu Huaide shouting "Ah......", and then threw the young man who sold river eels towards the wooden basin, everyone didn't expect Wu Huaide to suddenly make this move, so they had to watch and couldn't help at all.
