Chapter 513
Zhang Hu led the way, and the two of them left the manor and came to Shuangxi Town.
I don’t know if it’s a market day, but today the town is packed with people, including people selling firewood in exchange for salt, and hunters selling pheasants and hares.
After all, Shuangxi Town is a rural market town, and even if it is on a large scale, most of the people who come and go are poor people and some small traders.
"Master Tiger!"
"Master Tiger!"
The acquaintances immediately nodded and bowed when they saw Zhang Hu, looking flattering.
Because Du Yu had a different body, even though Du Yu had the appearance of Zhang Wenyuan, his temperament was far beyond that of the original owner, and he didn't have the look of a lustful ghost.
In addition, few people in the market town knew that the head of the Zhang family sent this playboy to the countryside, and those people really didn't know who the young master was following Zhang Hu.
In fact, no matter who it is, it has nothing to do with them, but it is Zhang Hu. Everyone knows that he is the attendant and bodyguard of Mr. Zhang, and he has martial arts and status.
When Zhang Hu saw Du Yu looking at him with a smile, Zhang Hu felt a little frightened. He waved his hand to disperse those who tried to come up with words.
"Master!"
"It's interesting, you have become Lord Tiger." Du Yu said with a smile.
"Let the young master laugh, and the people in the countryside will not see the world and scream nonsense." Zhang Hu explained.
Du Yu ignored it, waved the folding fan in his hand, and asked, "Is there anything interesting in this market town?"
Zhang Hu thought he was talking about the Goulan brothel, so he quickly shook his head and said, "Master, Shuangxi Town is not comparable to Lingyun County. How can the beauty of Puliu attract your attention?"
"I'm not asking about Goulan." Du Yu said.
"There are gambling houses, but they are our own property. If I let the master know..." Zhang Hu said cautiously. He was reminding his young master that he had been sent to the manor by the master to reflect on his honesty.
"Is this the only thing in my eyes?" Du Yu said.
"Um. Master, what do you mean...?" Zhang Hu asked.
"Forget it, you bitch is too stupid. It's useless to ask." Du Yu said.
Having said that, he ignored Zhang Hu as he strolled down the street, and from time to time he would take a look at the vendors setting up stalls on the roadside.
In fact, Shuangxi Town is indeed, as Zhang Hu said, a rural market town with not many good things, not even a fake secret book, let alone other things about cultivation.
He simply stopped paying attention to what was being sold on the street and listened more to what people were chatting about.
While the two were wandering aimlessly, the sound of an argument suddenly came from the door of a trading house not far away. It sounded like a hunter was arguing with someone.
It is human nature to eat melons, and Du Yu is no exception. When nothing happened, he and Zhang Hu went over to watch the fun.
"You, the Luo Family Trading Company, must be reasonable. The price is too low and I won't sell it. Why don't you?" said a child of about fourteen or five years old.
He was wearing patched but cleanly starched cloth, and carrying a somewhat worn bow and arrow behind his back. He was obviously a child of an Orion family.
"What are you talking about? I'm not forcing you to buy. I just want to tell you that the price offered by Luo's Trading Company is a fair price. No other store on this street would be able to offer ten taels of silver." The person who spoke was a person. A middle-aged man wearing silk.
"Since it was not a forced purchase, why are you not allowed to leave?" the child asked.
"It's okay to leave, but if you break my bag of tea and drop it, you'll have to pay for it." The middle-aged man said with a sneer.
"It's not that I won't compensate you, but what do you mean by asking me for ten taels of silver for a bag of tea? You're not interested in the snow fox I caught, and you want to take this opportunity to blackmail me." The child said angrily.
"My tea was shipped back from Qingshui County. It only cost ten taels of silver when I purchased it. I haven't even asked you for the freight, but you raked it up." The middle-aged man said.
"Humph, no one knows what you are thinking." The child said.
"If you break other people's things, you have to pay for it. You should understand this. If I exchange a pack of tea for ten taels of silver for your snow fox cub, everyone will not lose. If you get the tea, I can give you an explanation. Why not Why." The middle-aged man didn't hide it and directly stated his purpose.
"Did everyone hear that he is trying to steal my snow fox cub? Shuangxi Town is the backbone of Mr. Zhang's family. I don't believe that your Luo Family Trading Company can cover the sky with one hand?" said the child.
"Child, why don't you go find Master Hu to make the decision for you? Even if Xue Hu is gone, you can't suffer this loss." Someone in the crowd said.
"Well, it's the same if you go to Mr. Hu's place. Why don't you accept it? There will always be a bag of tea."
"That's right, Mr. Hu may not be in town if he's so busy." "..."
The crowd was talking about anything, but most of them were trying to persuade the child to accept the bag of tea.
Perhaps the middle-aged shopkeeper didn't want to make things worse, so he said, "In this way, I will suffer a little loss. I can give you another two ounces of money."
"No, I have to go to Mr. Hu to seek justice today." The child's temper also rose, and he said with a pinched neck.
"Well, to be honest, your snow fox cub is the one that the ladies in the county like to keep for fun. Even in Lingyun County, no one may buy it. What's the use of keeping it? Take the bag of tea and two more Isn't it good to hang money? I really think it's a loss for me to pay more." said the middle-aged man.
The child hesitated slightly.
Upon seeing this, the middle-aged man immediately said: "Brother, even in terms of relationship, Master Hu and I are closer than you, so you have to think carefully. Besides, no one in Shuangxi Town knows who Master Hu is."
Hearing this, Du Yu had an inexplicable smile on his face and kicked Zhang Hu on the butt.
What a skill he had, the force of this kick was just enough to send Zhang Hu in front of the middle-aged man.
Zhang Hu has been with his master for many years. Although he looks like a rough man, he is actually very evil. He looked solemnly and said to the middle-aged man: "Tell me, who is Mr. Hu?"
"Ah, Hu, Hu, Master Hu, are you so free today?" The middle-aged man's mouth was a little cramped.
"Luoshan, I heard that there is something in your words, and it seems that you are arranging Master Hu behind his back. Can you tell me how close you are to me?" Zhang Hu said with a serious face.
Hearing this, the middle-aged shopkeeper didn't know that he was in trouble today, so he immediately said flatteringly: "Young man usually pays filial piety to Lord Tiger, so naturally he is closer than this country mud-legged man."
"I've been listening for a long time. Since when did your Luo family start doing business in the county? And bring over the tea leaves worth ten taels of silver. I want to taste the difference between the tea leaves given by the eldest young master." Zhang Hu said.
The middle-aged shopkeeper's expression changed, and he immediately put on a bitter look, and said: "Master Hu, I dare you to fool that wild boy, but the company does not have such good tea."
"Hmph, you are doing this kind of deception on my Zhang family's behalf. I think your Luo family doesn't want to do business in Shuangxi Town anymore." Zhang Hu snorted coldly.
"Master Hu, it's the little lard that has deceived the heart. You're too high-minded to let the little one go. If the business is driven out of Shuangxi Town, the little one's life will be at risk." said the middle-aged shopkeeper.
"Twenty taels of silver." Zhang Hu said.
"Okay, okay, Mr. Tiger, wait a moment." The middle-aged man said, and after that he trotted into the back hall and walked out holding three silver ingots.
Zhang Hu took the silver ingot, weighed it in his hand, and then said, "Let's scatter it."
When the crowd watching the melon meal saw that it was him who spoke, they immediately left for fear of being kicked too late.
As soon as the crowd dispersed, Zhang Hu came over respectfully and said, "Master, look..."
"I didn't expect that your boy is still a figure in Shuangxi Town. Let's leave this matter as it is. People from other families will be informed later and they must abide by the rules of the Zhang family in the Zhang family's territory." Du Yu said.
"Yes, Master." Zhang Hu said.
At this time, the child tied a bamboo cage behind his back and was about to leave.
"Snow fox cub, right? I want it," Du Yu said.
The child was startled, then let out a long sigh as if he had resigned himself to his fate, and put the bamboo cage down again.
Du Yu stepped forward and took a look. Inside the bamboo cage was a snow-white and extremely cute fox cub. It looked very cute indeed.
"How much do you want?" he asked casually.
"Ten taels of silver, I know it's more than this price, but I'm willing to sell it at this price." The child said.
"Ten taels of silver is indeed not expensive." Du Yu said.
After hearing his words, Zhang Hu immediately threw a piece of silver to the other party.
"Thank you, Master." The child said respectfully. After that, he pushed the bamboo cage in front of him and planned to take the money and leave.
"Wait a moment." Du Yu said.
"Master, you..." The child suddenly felt something bad in his heart.
