Early the next morning, Qin Chuan got up early, had a simple breakfast, and brought dry food and some things he usually used. There are also medicinal herbs that I usually collect, large and small things, and I brought a big bag. Needless to say, those medicinal materials Qin Chuan felt that the value was higher, and it was a pity to sell them, so he kept them by himself, maybe they could be used in the future.

When Qin Chuan came to Zhang Biao's house, Zhang Biao was loading some sundries and collected medicinal materials into the car at home.

"Uncle Zhang. ”

"Xiaochuan is here, I got up so early, I thought you were going to sleep more, I haven't eaten breakfast yet, I'll ask your aunt to make you some food." ”

"I've eaten, Uncle Zhang, you can get busy first, I'll wait, it's okay. ”

"Okay, then you wait a minute, there are some other people in the village who will follow us into the city and go out to sell and buy some daily things. ”

After the meal time, four or five ox carts came one after another, and the carts were just loaded with some miscellaneous things, and Qin Chuan lost interest after watching it for a while. After those people came, they all greeted Zhang Biao and Qin Chuan warmly. Qin Chuan returned the salute, while Zhang Biao simply waved his hand, which was regarded as a response. In fact, Zhang Biao used to make a living by reselling some of the village's specialties like them, but in the past two years, he has specialized in making medicinal materials. Let the people of the village do the rest, like some surplus food in the village, and the prey obtained from the usual hunting.

Zhang Biao felt that these things couldn't make a lot of money in the past two years, and they were very bitter and tired, so it was better to be a favor and give it to others. And he specialized in purchasing medicinal materials and then selling them to the "Blood Sword Hall". As the value of the medicinal materials given to him by Qin Chuan became higher and higher, Zhang Biao also received the attention of the "Blood Sword Hall". This is also why he dared to give Qin Chuan a ticket, saying that he would definitely be able to give him a place in the "Blood Sword Hall" assessment.

As everyone came, Zhang Biao waved his hand to signal everyone to go, and he and Qin Chuan got into the big cart with a tall horse and a cloak. It was just that there was a blood-red flag on the carriage, and a big word "blood" was embroidered on it.

Don't underestimate this flag, with the bandits and bandits around it, no one dares to pay attention to these convoys. If you offend the government, the people of the government come to suppress the bandits, just shouting slogans, you just have to abandon the cottage and run away, but if you want to "Blood Sword Hall", it is a never-ending pursuit and killing. People in the mountain village will follow Zhang Biao every time they enter the city, because they don't say how much money they make in this way, but their safety is guaranteed.

When he got to the carriage, Zhang Biao immediately put away the cold face just now, and chatted with Qin Chuan enthusiastically, Zhang Biao told a lot of what he had seen and heard, while Qin Chuan mainly listened to some information about Qingyang Town, and the other things were in and out of the left ear. In Zhang Biao's place, Qin Chuan really knew a lot about the situation in Qingyang Town.

Qingyang Town is located in the southwest of Liangzhou at the foot of Qingyang Mountain, in the vicinity of Qingyang Town, there are more than a dozen villages like Qin Chuan lived, the so-called relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, in these villages, basically rely on hunting and picking for a living. There is less farmland in this area, so the production of grain is limited, but there is more meat. Qingyang Town, on the other hand, is a place of exchange for meat and grain, as well as medicinal herbs. The mountains are inaccessible, overgrown with shrubs, and there is plenty of rainfall, so that many medicinal herbs grow here. It also attracts many medicinal herb merchants to come here to search for treasures. Sometimes it's just a leak, and it will make a person rich overnight. Therefore, whenever the market in Qingyang Town is traded, it is also the most lively time here, and Qingyang Town at this time is not even much inferior to some big towns in Liangzhou.

In Qingyang Town, there are three major forces in charge of the government, the Blood Sword Hall Branch, and the Great Green Gang, and the others are some large and small martial arts families, which are far from being able to compete with these three major forces.

Among these three forces, the strength of the "Blood Sword Hall" is the strongest, but the Blood Sword Hall mainly cultivates killers and makes money by assassination, so although the strength is strong, the number is not large. And the Daqing Gang has many gangs, but the strength of each gang is not strong, and it is also the most well-informed place in Qingyang Town. The government represents the power on the surface. These three have always been at peace with each other on the surface, but behind the scenes, the competition is really fierce. But there is one thing that the three families abide by, that is, they are unanimous with the outside world and do not allow foreign forces to have the opportunity to settle in Qingyang Town. The general conflict of interest of these three forces is resolved through negotiation and consultation. So it's still relatively stable in Qingyang Town.

After half a day, Qin Chuan and his party finally came to Qingyang Town. Qin Chuan walked out of the carriage and saw the word Qingyang engraved on the city gate in the distance, and there were two rows of soldiers in front of the city gate, charging passers-by to enter the city.

The leader of the soldiers defending the city saw a convoy coming and immediately ran over.

"Yo, Master Biao, you're back, let's enter the city!" the leader of the small soldiers nodded and thought about Zhang Biao. Soldiers

"Hurry up, hurry up, get out of the way, let Biao Ye and them enter the city. ”

"Little Liuzi, you are on duty today, you are doing a good job. Zhang Biao said a word, and casually threw a certain amount of silver to the soldier named Xiao Liuzi.

"Take it to the bar, but don't charge the people in the back. ”

"Since you have spoken, you will be exempted. Xiao Liuzi was laughing while sending Zhang Biao into the city. It wasn't until Zhang Biao and Qin Chuan and his party walked away that Xiao Liuzi said with a sigh: "What Biao Ye, he wasn't a peddler two years ago, and when he saw me before, he had to call the sixth master, I don't know what kind of luck he has taken in the past two years, and he actually came together with the big man of the Blood Sword Hall, and even the city lord didn't dare to offend him." ”

Qin Chuan and Zhang Biao naturally didn't know what this little sixth son thought. After entering the city, everyone broke up with Zhang Biao and Qin Chuan.

"Xiaochuan, let's go to the restaurant to eat something first, it's been a bumpy morning on the road, Xiaochuan, you are also tired, eat a good meal at noon, take a good rest in the afternoon, let Xiaohu come in the evening, accompany you to walk around the bazaar, and tomorrow I will take you to the Blood Sword Hall branch hall to meet the person in charge here, and you need to determine the number of places to participate in the Blood Sword Hall assessment here." I just came to send you to the main hall to participate in the assessment, and you have been having a good time here for the past few days. But don't worry, Uncle Zhang will definitely give you a place to participate in the assessment, what do you think?" Zhang Biao asked tentatively.

"Everything is up to Uncle Zhang, you just need to make arrangements, I have no opinion. ”

The two came to the largest restaurant in Qingyang Town, Qingyang Restaurant. Seeing that Zhang Biao was coming, the shopkeeper immediately became much more enthusiastic and invited them into the restaurant. But he was a little surprised when he saw Qin Chuan, who was dressed as a veterinarian in animal skins, with dark skin, and a look of dirt buns entering the city. But with Zhang Biao on the side, it's hard to say anything.

"Little Er, come to the two upper rooms, and then serve all the specialties here and send them to the room.

After a while, all kinds of wine and dishes were placed in front of Qin Chuan, and the bursts of fragrance made Qin Chuan's appetite soar, but with a sense of caution, Qin Chuan did not start eating. Instead, he said to Zhang Biao: "Uncle Zhang, come and eat too, I can't finish so many dishes alone, let's eat together, otherwise it will be wasted." ”

Zhang Biao looked at Qin Chuan, who looked forward to it, with a hint of solemnity in his eyes, and sat down without saying a word. Qin Chuan first gave him a glass of wine, and saw that he was fine after drinking and eating, and then he started eating. This can't blame Qin Chuan for being too careful, whether it is a tiger skin or a medicinal herb, it is a valuable thing, if Zhang Biao poisons himself with malicious intentions, he Qin Chuan will be in danger, and pinning his life on the benevolence of others is not what Qin Chuan wants.

After a meal, Qin Chuan was full of wine and food, and the two chatted for a while. Zhang Biao got up and said goodbye. Qin Chuan sent him out of the restaurant, and when he saw Zhang Biao walking away, Qin Chuan returned to the restaurant. After returning to the restaurant, he called the shopkeeper to his room again. When the shopkeeper saw Qin Chuan's dress as a dirt bun, he was very reluctant at first, but when Qin Chuan took out two taels of scattered silver, he immediately didn't look at it and laughed. Later, when Qin Chuan questioned him, the shopkeeper knew everything and said everything.

From the mouth of the shopkeeper, Qin Chuan learned that the situation in Qingyang Town was similar to what Zhang Biao said, only some more information about Zhang Biao, and the shopkeeper looked at Qin Chuan strangely at first, but when he thought of the silver, he said everything he knew. Qin Chuan knew that Zhang Biao had been valued by the Blood Sword Hall by selling some precious medicinal materials to the Blood Sword Hall. In the end, in order to get the protection of the Blood Sword Hall, he specially collected medicinal materials for the Blood Sword Hall, and his current status is almost the same as that of the Blood Sword Hall's steward in Qingyang Town. After learning all this, Qin Chuan couldn't help but admire Zhang Biao's vision and insight.

After getting what he wanted, Qin Chuan threw another one or two pieces of silver to the shopkeeper and sent him away. He himself meditated on the bed. (To be continued)
