After he said this, he turned his eyes away and didn't speak again.

It seemed as if he knew that Nangong Yuan would be in trouble.

"What are you talking about, Your Majesty? If you can't even show it to me, then there is nothing worth seeing in this world."

This is truly what she really thinks.

Nangong Yuan felt that even if he was not the villain in the book, he could still make a career.

But the plot of the novel revolves around the male and female protagonists. No matter how powerful the villain is, he can only serve as a stepping stone for them.

When you think about it, it’s really unfair.

For Nangong Yuan, a passerby who has nothing to do with the matter, it is really sad.

"I'm glad you think so."

Xiao Heyun brought her a bowl of soup with a normal expression.

When he was neither angry nor furious, he did not have that frightening hostility, but instead looked handsome and imposing.

Nangong Yuan didn't say anything else and just ate in silence.

The two of them have been getting along like this lately, sometimes happy, sometimes silent.

But even if no one talks, the atmosphere doesn't seem awkward, but rather peaceful.

The two of them finished their meal and Li Jin was almost back.

"Your Majesty, we have agreed that there will be a trade street in the west of the city tonight, and many caravans will go there."

Xiao Heyun nodded: "Then let's go and join in the fun."

"Yes, I will prepare it right away."

Soon, the group went to the west of the city with the things they wanted to sell.

Li Jin asked the local boss for a shop, and when he got there he only needed to sit in the hall.

"No wonder the south is so wealthy. With so many caravans coming and going, it's hard not to be rich."

Xiao Heyun said: "This was just a market before. Things from overseas were not rare here. No one wanted small things. But now that commerce has developed everywhere, it is thriving."

Speaking of this, Nangong Yuan thought of something and asked.

"So what were the tributes sent from overseas in the past?"

Xiao Heyun thought for a moment and said, "They are mostly valuable local items, including various handicrafts, jewelry, and minerals. Anyway, there are a lot of them."

Although he was not always in Kyoto, he occasionally saw those things when he came to pay tribute to the foreign court.

"Well, have you ever seen this thing?"

She took out the Western watch from the system's props.

"I seem to have seen this thing before. Your Majesty seems to have given it to someone before, but I can't remember who it was given to."

There was something dangerous in Nangong Yuan's eyes.

It is indeed a tribute. No wonder... it looks exactly the same as the one given by the imperial merchant before.

But how did this stuff get out?

When tribute is paid to Your Majesty from various places, they usually present the best local things to Your Majesty, so there is no such thing as using other things as a perfunctory gesture.

However, these things are rare and should not be sold. If the imperial court knew about it, they would definitely charge them with disrespect for the supreme country and then kill them all.

"How strange!"

She held the somewhat cold pocket watch in her hand, and the chain creaked.

"Why, is there something wrong with this thing?"

Nangong Yuan told what happened to her.

Hearing this, Xiao Heyun was also a little stunned: "This is strange. You know, the number of tributes is very small. Logically, there shouldn't be any extra to sell."

The two people have similar views on this matter.

Nangong Yuan sighed: "Don't worry about this for now, we'll talk about it if we find any clues."

Fortunately, she had come here along the caravan along the way, so there was always a chance.

"it is good."

Although he said so, Xiao Heyun still silently took note of this matter.

He knew what Nangong Yuan was investigating, otherwise he wouldn't be running around.

She hasn't gone home since the incident in Kyoto ended, perhaps because of this matter.

"Master, we're here."

Nangong Yuan got out of the car first and looked around. This place was more interesting than she had imagined.

This entire street is prepared for caravans, so at this moment many people are transporting goods to the shops.

There are many guests from all over the place, all of whom come to see if there are any rare things.

"Let's go in first."

Li Jin pushed his wheelchair down and the group entered the house.

"Oh, the chief shopkeeper is here, we are almost ready."

There was already someone busy in the shop. He was a slightly plump middle-aged man.

"Uncle Lin, thank you for your hard work. We will open soon."

The man nodded and said, "Okay, tonight is the first day of business on Changyou Street, there will be a lot of people. If you want to go out and play, please pay attention to the pedestrians and don't get squeezed."

I didn't expect that what he said was actually true.

Half an hour later, the shop was packed with people.

"what is this?"

"The most famous Siquan brocade in the south is used to make clothes. It is bright and beautiful, and it is not easy to bump into others."

Uncle Lin was introducing things to the customers in front of the stage, and Nangong Yuan was watching from behind, thinking that this guy was really interesting.

"You can go if you want, don't worry about me."

Nangong Yuan smiled and said, "I'll be back soon."

She had a cheerful and pretty face, and a gentle and bright smile, and was soon surrounded by young girls and wives.

"My dear, where is your dress made?"

Nangong Yuan said: "Of course it's my family. Look, the material I'm wearing is Siquan brocade. Do you want it, young lady?"

Being stared at by her beautiful eyes, the woman bit her lip shyly and said after a while: "Yes."

"And this, the fragrant tea from our own tea fields, tastes completely different from the others, you can try it too."

She was taller than ordinary women, and she didn't exaggerate when selling her products to them.

But looking at that face, many people are willing to pay for it.

"Sir, I need 100 kilograms. Send it to my house later."

A young girl, who was followed by several servants, saw this and waved her hand, spending a fortune.

Nangong Yuan said: "Miss, since you are so supportive, I will give you a gift."

She took out a jade hairpin from the table: "This one was carved by a master craftsman. Although the jade material is not the best, it is fresh and beautiful, suitable for the girl's temperament."

The woman took the hairpin shyly and her face turned red.

Seeing that there were only young and pretty girls here, some people wanted to come in and join in the fun, but were stopped.

"Hey, there are only women in there, please wait a minute before going in."

Li Jin brought secret guards with him to act as protection to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the situation and molesting the young girl.

"Tsk, it seems like someone really likes to look at it."

Some people were stopped from entering, so they rolled their eyes and left.

Some people were very curious and were waiting for this group of people to come out.

Nangong Yuan stood here and introduced everything from headwear to rouge, from fabrics to tea leaves, very skillfully.

In just two hours, the income was five thousand taels.

"Oh, the young master is really a genius. It would be a big loss if he didn't do business."

Nangong Yuan just smiled and gave the silk flowers she had prepared in advance to those present who had not bought anything.
