Economic and Trade Song Dynasty

The person inside came up and asked whether he was killing or stealing goods. Although Qin Juan and Xu Cheng who were standing outside the door were not frightened, it also left them speechless.

The two listened with pricked ears, and Qin Juan looked at Xu Cheng, as if asking him if he felt something was wrong.

Xu Cheng knows where this Luoxian Tower is, so he knows a thing or two better than Qin Juan.

Seeing Xu Cheng's expression, Qin Juan suddenly understood something.

They heard Zhao Huaizhi reply: "That man is not worthy of death, but I want to injure him severely."

The man in black squinted his eyes, and said in a calm voice, "The only people who do that kind of thing in Luoxianlou are murder and robbery."

That is to say, if you just want to hurt someone hard, find someone else.

The man in black did not leave, but stretched out his hand to pick up the teacup on the table.Zhao Huaizhi's eyes dimmed slightly, and he paused for a while before saying, "How much does it cost to kill someone?"

Hearing that, the man in black slowly raised his eyelids. He didn't say how much money it was right away, but asked who he wanted to kill.

Zhao Huaizhi said in a calm voice: "The son on the Qingchuan boat offers you the Lord."

The man in black paused for a moment with the hand holding the teacup, and seemed to twitch the corner of his mouth.

"Okay, 1000 taels." The man in black put down his teacup.

Zhao Huaizhi looked at him with more cunning eyes, and he asked, "Why did you agree without asking me who this person is?"

"Didn't you mention the Qingchuan boat?" The man in black chuckled.

It was obvious that Zhao Huaizhi had already thought too far, Luo Xianlou should have received the task of killing his son and presenting the king, and the reason for agreeing to him was just to make more money.

"Okay, 1000 taels." Zhao Huaizhi was even more curious, who is the other person who wants to kill Zixian?

Zhao Huaizhi took out 500 taels of silver bills and pressed them on the table, "This is a deposit. If the killer you send out finds Zi Xian's location, I will pay you the other half."

Although the man in black seemed to be in poor health, he was unambiguous when collecting the money: "Leave me the address."

"This is my address." Zhao Huaizhi took out a folded piece of paper, "Your Excellency."

"No expense, I have no surname." The man in black didn't seem to be joking.

The moment he stood up, he said to Zhao Huaizhi: "People in the building call me the second head, and those who know me better call me Wuyi."

The people in Luoxianlou did not want to disclose their names or even their code names for a sale, but he was willing to tell Zhao Huaizhi, but for some reason.

Qin Juan and the others quickly followed Zhao Huaizhi.

Walking out of Luoxian Tower, the three of them went back to the inn.

On the way, Qin Juan said to Xu Cheng, "Someone is following us."

Xu Cheng: "People from Luoxian Tower."

Zhao Huaizhi rode in front on horseback, and when he heard the conversation between the two of them, his face remained unchanged.

He didn't go back to the inn immediately, but went to the market instead.

Zhao Huaizhi took a look at the market in Luoshan Town. Most of the products sold were porcelain and tea. As for silk, most of the goods were shipped from merchants in Lin'an Prefecture. There were also many fan shops in the market. It was almost early winter. The store began to sell silk lanterns.

There are various styles of lanterns, such as koi carp, rabbit and tiger...

Qin Juan couldn't help but asked the price, probably because he thought Songman and Xiaoqu'er would like this, so he bought two more.

Xu Cheng hugged his chest: "..." He felt that it would be a hassle to buy this thing, and it would take a lot of effort to bring it back.

Qin Juan is probably because he was rare when he was a child, and no one bought it for him at that time, so now he sees it and wants to buy it for the two cubs...

Coming out of the market, Zhao Huaizhi stopped at the door of a tea shop, and he said to Qin Juan and Xu Cheng, "I'll go in and ask."

Zhao Huai got off the horse, Qin Juan followed him in, leaving Xu Cheng outside to watch the horse.

Xu Cheng: ...

Zhao Huaizhi asked about the market price of tea, so he looked at the varieties of tea here.

"Mao Jian, how much do you get?"

"It's cheap and there is no profit." The shopkeeper continued to fiddle with the beads without raising his head.

It means that there is no profit, and I don't want to buy any more.

Zhao Huaizhi seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "Don't you earn three pennies and one tael?"

He turned around and was about to leave when he was stopped by the shopkeeper: "Wait a minute."

"Please go into the back room and sit down. It's not too late to leave after having a cup of tea." The shopkeeper rubbed his hands and said.

Zhao Huaizhi smiled, and followed the shopkeeper into the room.

There are many hills in Jingbei, and nothing can be grown, but the tea grows very well. There are many tea farmers in the military households, and the tea yields are very high every year.

But when Zhao Huaizhi didn't come back, almost all the tea leaves were sold at a low price of two cents and ten taels, and they couldn't be sold at such a low price. The problem was that there were too many tea farmers in Jingbei.

It would be good if the tea can be transported to this area for sale.

This tea shop almost supplies the tea of ​​the entire Luoxian Town, so as long as the business is concluded, there is no fear that the tea will not be sold.

At that time, the tea from Jingbei will be secretly transported to Jiangzhou, and sold from Jiangzhou, just say that it is Jiangzhou tea.

Even if someone wants to check, they can't find anything.

Thinking of this, Zhao Huaizhi smiled.

The deal went smoothly, and Lao Cai from Jiangzhou reached a business agreement with the owner of the tea shop.

"Next month, my people will bring in a hundred catties first." Zhao Huaizhi said.

That's what I said, but it's far more than a hundred catties. The wages for this trip are a lot, so it won't be so little. At least more than 2000 catties should be brought to Jiangzhou first.

After coming out of the market, no one followed them anymore, the people from Luoxianlou should have gone back.

After the people sent by Luoxianlou went back, they told the Erdang Wuyi that after arriving at the market, the old Cai from Jiangzhou was a tea merchant, and he must have negotiated a big deal with the market tea shop.

After Wuyi knew about it, he ordered his subordinates: "Contact Anshou first, I want to know about Zixian within three days."

"Yes."

Zhao Huaizhi wanted to borrow the news from Luo Xianlou Cha Zixian, and now they agreed that this Zixian, who didn't know whether he was dead or alive, was the key to finding Qin Gu.

Luo Xianlou only kills people and steals goods, so Zhao Huaizhi didn't ask Luo Xianlou to help find Qin Gu, so he can only feel wronged by that son Xianjun...

Furthermore...

Zhao Huaizhi looked at Qin Juan and Xu Cheng: "Before I go, someone should have invited people from Luoxianlou to kill that Zixian."

Qin Juan felt that something was wrong when he was in Luoxianlou, and Wuyi asked without asking.

"It's not a big deal for them to take over jobs repeatedly, so they don't think it's a big deal." Zhao Huaizhi stood up, "However, who wants to kill Zixian?"

He still hasn't figured out whether Qin Gu is the killer or just wants to kill Zixian for some reason, but he doesn't think Qin Gu will be the buyer.

There are always indications that Qin Gu will not be the buyer, and should not be.

What I can't figure out is Qin Gu's position, the killer or Zi Xian's friend?

Now we need to check Naluo Xianlou carefully.

"Xu Cheng, you go to contact An Zhuang to find out the details of Naluo Xianlou."

Zhao Huaizhi rubbed his forehead.

Xu Cheng took the order and rode away overnight.

As soon as Xu Cheng left, Qin Juan returned to his room to take a shower, then went through the window to find Zhao Huaizhi.

Zhao Huaizhi seemed to know that he would come, so he didn't fall asleep at all. When he touched the bedside, he opened his eyes and looked at him, "It's addictive to open the window." Qin Juan didn't speak, just kicked off his shoes and climbed onto the bed.

"Climbing the bed is also addictive." All right, what he said is what he said, Qin Juan still didn't speak, but he started to move his hands and feet.

Zhao Huaizhi held his hand and smiled, "Have fun tonight, but I have a task for you tomorrow morning."

"What task." Qin Juan finally spoke.

"Go to Quanzhou and find that Qing Wanwan."

Qin Juan didn't know who Qing Wanwan was, but it sounded familiar.

Zhao Huaizhi knew he didn't know: "The boss of Xiulou, that late lady."

"You go and ask her if Qin Gu is in black clouds and white clothes, and then ask her where she is now."

Qin Juan sat up suddenly, why didn't he think of this!At that time, I forgot to connect them together and think about it again!

Seeing his appearance like this, Zhao Huaizhi knew that he had figured it out.

So he put his arms around his neck: "Okay, let's get down to business." Qin Juan's face became hot, and he pressed down directly.

Before dawn the next morning, Qin Juan got up and got dressed.

Zhao Huaizhi woke up: "I won't see you off."

"Well, take care of yourself and remember to add clothes."

"Come back sooner."

Qin Juan nodded.

Riding on Huhu, he left Luoshan Town and walked all the way to the official road in the south.

The distant mountains are vast, and the mountains and rivers are connected.

He is already familiar with the way to Quanzhou.

About ten days later, Qin Juan arrived in Quanzhou.

It's just that he failed to enter the city that night and spent the night in a temple on the outskirts of the city.

The monk led him to the side room in the backyard, and he thought he was lucky, he came a little earlier, and there happened to be a vacant house, and those who came after him had to live in the woodshed.

Unexpectedly, I discovered it when I was taking a shower. The wing rooms of this temple are not soundproof at all.

He was in the middle, and the room on the east side should be a couple. He couldn't wash it after halfway in the shower, because...the sound came from over there...

Qin Juan's face turned black and red, threw the towel and went for a stroll in the yard, wanting to wait for the couple to finish their work before going back to the room.

Unexpectedly, the monk in charge of the yard came and told him not to wander around at night, but to go back to his room to rest.

It should be that the green forest has come down the mountain recently, and the monks are worried about the accident of the benefactors, so they are not allowed to stroll or go out.

Qin Juan pretended to go back to his room, but as soon as the monk left, he went up to the roof.

However, my hearing is so good that I can clearly hear the sounds from the east room and the west room when I go up to the roof...

Leaving aside the east room, what about the west room?

These two people were speaking in awe-inspiring words, not sure where they came from, but they probably came here by smuggling...

I didn't dare to go ashore in Lin'an Mansion, but found Quanzhou to go ashore, which is considered a bit of skill

Qin Juan was sure that the two people were not as cowardly as he was, and they might have exchanged cowardly words just to hide their identities.

Their voices are very soft, and they have already paid attention to them, but his hearing is too good.

Inside:

One person: "Sleep first, and see if I can enter the city tomorrow."

Another person: "If we can't find anyone, we don't have to go back..."

Presumably these two people went around from the east gate to the north gate because they couldn't enter Quanzhou City...
