In the blink of an eye, it was the third day. At about four o'clock in the morning, everyone in the villa had already woken up. Zheng Yuming was busy making breakfast and preparing dry food, while Chu Chaohui packed up a pair of baskets, each of which was filled with hunted game. , This is a gift for Wu everyone.Another basket is ready to put the Huo brothers and sisters and wood.The two adults didn't know that they would leave the villa for a few days, so the children and wood could not be left in the villa, and they planned to take them to Nanbu and entrust Wu Da's wife to take care of them.

After the brothers and sisters of the Huo family arrived at the villa with enough food and clothing, the chilblains on their hands and feet began to itch, and the two children could not sleep well at night. Frostbite wounds open.Chu Zhaohui put the wild game for Wu Da in a basket, just to carry the two children away with the wood.

In the early morning at the end of winter, the temperature was below zero, and the grass along the way was covered with hoarfrost. The Huo siblings were sitting on a stone with two large apples in their hands, with a wood sandwiched between them, filling a basket to the brim. .The brothers and sisters of the Huo family were too light, and the combined weight was only half of the game basket, so they had to put a stone in the basket to balance the weight of the two ends of the pole.

From the villa to the outside of the valley, a small road has been walked. Now it only takes one and a half hours to walk from the villa to the hillside at the exit of the gap. As soon as I went down the hillside, I saw Wu Da’s mule cart on the small road. It turned out that Wu Da was early in the morning. He came to fetch them in a mule cart.

The three of them greeted each other for a while, Luokung and others got into the car, Wu Da saw the two bald children who had changed into a new look, and looked at them for a long time in amazement, before turning around and driving the mule cart to the village. I secretly sighed in my heart that the Huo brothers and sisters jumped into the granary as mice, and they had to work hard to enjoy themselves.

The villagers of Nanbu Village have already started a busy day to earn a living. Two wooden boats have been moored at the pier. The owner of the wooden boat is directing the coolies to carry goods to the shore. These goods will be transported to the city for sale.Apart from Yu Kui's wine shop and a blacksmith's shop, Nanbu Village has no other shops. People's daily needs are traded with peddlers who travel all over the country. These peddlers don't come to Nanbu every day, but once or twice a month. Every time they come, the merchants will be surrounded by trading villagers. Today, two merchants have arrived at Nanbu Wharf.The wooden boats are busy unloading goods, and the noisy trading sounds around the shopkeepers make Nanbu Wharf lively.

Wu Da drove the mule cart directly into the yard, and as soon as he entered the yard, Wu Da's wife and Wu Feng were already standing in the yard to greet him.After Chu Chaohui and Zheng Yuming got out of the car and met with Mrs. Wu's wife, they offered a basket of wild game, and took two apples from the brothers and sisters of the Huo family and handed them to Wu Feng, leaving the remaining two apples to Huo Feng. brothers and sisters.These four apples are the last of the villa's fruit stock.Wu Feng was overjoyed when he took the apple. The apple was fragrant and sweet, full of water, and tasted so good that he had never tasted it before.The apples given to him three days ago have already been eaten by him, including the belt and core.

Wu Da and his wife accepted the game and thanked them repeatedly. You must know that due to the lack of hunting tools, it is not easy for people in this time and space to hunt. If you want to go into the mountains to hunt, you have to go in groups. If you are lucky, each person will get more prey. Not good, except for small animals, people sometimes leave empty-handed.Chu Chaohui and Zheng Yuming gave away two wild boar legs, five hares, and six pheasants this time. These game meats were worth three months of meat for Wu Da's family.

Wu Da's wife and her servant, Peng Fu, brought out two sets of dark clothes day and night. The two time travelers immediately changed their temperament after wearing them. In the eyes of the time travelers, they concealed the modernity and became elegant, but in the eyes of the ancients, they changed. You have to be noble and have status.

After changing their clothes, Wu Da, Chu Chaohui and Zheng Yuming set off for Dacheng. The Huo family brothers and sisters and Mu Mu stayed in Nanbu. Before leaving, Zheng Yuming asked Wu Da's wife to help the Huo family brothers and sisters get two pairs of shoes. There are no suitable shoes on the children's feet.

Nanbu is about 10 kilometers away from Dacheng, and it takes three hours for a mule cart to arrive. It passes through three large villages along the way. The nearest village to Nanbu is the back slope where Wu Da lived for a night last time. In the past of the back slope is Qiancun and Qiuzhuang. In the past four or [-] minutes, Qiuzhuang will reach Dacheng.The three villages of Houpo, Qiancun and Qiuzhuang all have earthen walls surrounding the villages. The reason why Nanbu does not have an earthen wall is because the south is a new village. More than ten years ago, the village had only half of its current population. I have no property to build protection for my village, and besides the waterway, the fence is also connected to the outside world, so the fence that must be built in time and space was not built. Fortunately, there are no large groups of bandits and robbers around. He was driven away by the villagers of Nanbu with concerted efforts.

The protective fence of Dacheng is made of stones and blue bricks, and the city wall is only four or five meters high. It is not as tall as the seven or eight meters that two travelers saw in the movie, and there is a moat surrounding the city wall. The trench, because the climate is dry in the trench, there is no water in it, only some mud.Dacheng has three gates, the south gate, the north gate, and the west gate. The south port is in the southeast direction of Dacheng, and the south gate is used to enter the city.

There are three or four guards at the gate of the south city. Every citizen who enters the city gate must pay the entry fee. The entry fee is one Wu State copper coin per person, and two Wu State copper coins for the carriage.Zheng Yuming calculated according to the price. A copper coin of the Wu Kingdom is about five yuan in the previous time and space. Calculated in this way, the toll for entering the city is very high. There are many ragged people standing on the roadside outside the city gate, and they are reluctant to pay a copper coin. If there is no entry fee, you can only sell your own goods to passers-by outside the city gate. Most of the goods you sell are firewood, your own agricultural and sideline products, and game you hunt. A few people sell cloth without dyeing colors. The kind of white coarse cloth with a yellowish tint.Seeing these white coarse cloths, Zheng Yuming and Chu Chaohui realized that the yellow clothes worn by many common people were made of this white coarse cloth, and the white color gradually turned yellow due to unclean washing.In this time and space, the price of dyed cloth is one-third higher than that of white coarse cloth.

The city gate guards are generally taller than Wu Da, about 165-170 centimeters tall, wearing blue coarse cloth clothes without armor protection, their hair is only wrapped with blue cloth of the same color as the clothes, and they have different weapons in their hands. One with an iron rod, one with a bronze knife, and one with a spear.These weapons are all brought by them. In this era, soldiers were born of nobles, and peasants were not qualified to fight. The ruling class in the previous time and space arrived in the Warring States period, and only peasants were allowed to participate in the war as the war expanded.

"Wu Dong's family, come to Dacheng to make a fortune again." The tallest soldier among the guards greeted Wu Da.

"Guo Huben! You guys have worked hard!" Wu Da got off the mule cart and saluted the guard respectfully. Huben is a respectful title for soldiers.

"Who are these two?" Guo Huben looked at the two travelers getting off the mule cart, his face full of surprise. Chu Chaohui's height of 183 seemed like a giant standing at the entrance of the city, and Zheng Yuming's outstanding appearance made the two even more so. The noble soldier watched intently.

"These two strong men are from overseas. They came here in a shipwreck. This time they came to Dacheng to buy some things." Wu Da introduced the identities of Chu Chaohui and Zheng Yuming.

"It turned out to be a strong overseas man." Guo Huben cupped his hands towards the two time-travelers.

Chu Chaohui and Zheng Yuming quickly clasped their fists and saluted the gate guards. People in this time and space admired force, and believed that strong and tall people were god-given. The height of the two immediately attracted the attention of the gate guards, and the guards saluted them one after another.

"Guo Huben, this is the gate fee." Wu Da handed over five copper coins.

"There is no need to pay. How can such an outstanding man come to Dacheng, how can he charge an entrance fee?" Guo Huben still stared at Zheng Yuming. He had never seen such a handsome man, and his eyes were not enough.

"Then thank you, Junmen. I will send green wine to thank you when I go out of the city." Wu Da looked helplessly at Guo Huben's obsessed eyes. This Guo Huben is famous for judging people by their appearance. Take double copies, or simply not let in.

Chu Chaohui felt that the man who watched the city gate was really outrageous, so he couldn't help squinting and glanced at Guo Huben, who was only as tall as his neck.

Guo Huben was coldly glanced at by Chu Chaohui, and realized that he had lost his composure, so he quickly raised his hand to ask his companions to remove the roadblock, and let Wu Da and his party enter the city.

"Guo Huben wants to share the same bed with that hottie?"

Homosexuality in this time and space only exists among the nobles. These guards are all nobles. It is sometimes heard that "intimacy with children" among relatives and friends. Guo Huben prefers male sex, and he never hides his hobby. Seeing that Guo Huben was still obsessed with the backs of the overseas people who had gone away, the guards couldn't help booing loudly.

"If you really want to be favored by those who are beautiful, Guo's death is enough!"

"I see someone who is guarded by my side." One of the companions poured cold water on Guo Huben.

"If the handsome man favors me, it doesn't matter whether I have someone to take care of me." Guo Huben seemed to be very confident in himself.

"I see that these two have extraordinary temperament, they must have been born masters." The two time-travelers saluted them with neither arrogance nor condescension, and they advanced and retreated with restraint. The guards couldn't help guessing about their life experiences.

"Master Wei's demeanor is not comparable to that of the handsome one." Guo Huben still has no memory of Zheng Yuming.

"Guo Huben said carefully, Lord Wei is our lord." Although Guo Huben's companions agreed with the evaluation in their hearts, they still spoke out to stop Guo Huben from saying anything. The Lord Wei in their mouths was Lord Ulsan, the lord of Dacheng, The second son of King Wu.

The streets of Dacheng are paved with stones. Some houses in the city are made of stone bricks, and some are mixed with mud bricks and stones. Some noble houses are all made of blue bricks and blue tiles, and the appearance looks much neater.These dingy buildings in the eyes of travelers are already the most decent buildings in a hundred miles around Dacheng.

The streets in the city are very lively, bustling with people, including citizens and people outside the city, nobles sitting in their own slaves driving carriages, and down-and-out warriors.These people were surprised to see the same expressions of the two time-travelers.And the two time travelers stand out from the crowd wherever they stand, they are too conspicuous.

Wu Da first led the two travelers to live in the inn, and then took the glass beads to find a family member in Dacheng. This family member is Wu Da's distant cousin. I got acquainted with some nobles in this city.Wu Da wanted to find the buyer of the glass beads through this distant cousin.After Wu Da entrusted the beads to his cousin, he went back to the inn to wait for news.

In the afternoon of the next day, Wu Da's distant cousin sent a message, asking if the price was acceptable for 21 bolts of city cloth for the colorless glass bead.

When Zheng Yuming and Chu Chaohui heard Wu Da's estimate, they already felt that the glass ball was too expensive. Now that they heard that they could sell for 21 pieces of Dacheng cloth, they quickly asked Wu Da to tell their distant cousin that they would accept the price.

In the evening, Wu Da’s mule cart returned to the inn with [-] horses of Dacheng cloth. The missing two horses of Dacheng cloth were paid for by Wu Datang. If a business is completed, one-tenth of the commission has to be paid to the middleman.

Zheng Yuming and Chu Chaohui only took [-] bolts of Dacheng cloth, and gave the remaining four bolts to Wu Da. The clothes they wore were provided by Wu Da, and Wu Da took care of them along the way. Helping to sell and sending four bolts of cotton cloth as a reward is really not much in the eyes of the two timetravelers. This time the bead sale is just to explore the way. There are many treasures in the villa in this time and space. Selling, with a trustworthy sales channel, they can guarantee that they will not be short of coins in the future.
