The officer's eyes changed when he looked at Sun Yaozu. The villagers in Nanshan Village were really extraordinary. They were able to hunt tigers. This ability was enough to make people admire them.
The officer's eyes fell on the others. He had just glanced at them briefly before, but now he looked at them carefully.
The number of women is much greater, but this group of people are very energetic, and among them there is a man as strong as an ox.
No wonder you can hunt tigers.
However, the official did not know that the person who hunted the tiger had nothing to do with these people.
He ignored the person who was actually hunting the tiger, and the official ignored Qin Qi'er who was leading the cow.
"Brother, official officer, we are still in a hurry to enter the city, I don't know..." Sun Yaozu indicated whether we can let him go.
There was no contraband on the bullock cart, but a piece of tiger skin. Speaking of which, this was a tiger-fighting hero, so he should be admired. Naturally, the officials did not make things more difficult for them, and the group was finally able to enter the city.
As soon as you enter Min County, you can feel the excitement.
This kind of liveliness is relative. Compared with Nanshan Village, it is naturally lively.
In Pei Yun's eyes, it can only be said to be okay.
Looking at it, you can see that it is a straight road with shops and many stalls on both sides of the road.
The road divides from east to west in the middle, forming a crossroads.
The East and West Streets are where the dignitaries of Min County live.
East Main Street has the Yamen, the Military and Horse Department...
West Street is where some wealthy families live.
The layout of Min County is simple, and it is not an important county after all.
This can also be seen from the architectural aspects of Min County. The houses are much better than those in Nanshan Village, but most of them are only one-story high, with very few two-story buildings, and those with three stories stand out from the crowd.
At first glance, there is only a three-story building with red bricks and green tiles.
If you get closer, you can hear the singing and whispering of birds.
Yes, the business operated in this building has been enduring from ancient times to the present.
This is a flower building.
There were very few things for the ancients to do for entertainment. Visiting the flower house was a place where people could not forget to leave and get drunk.
The flower building is also the most profitable. As soon as the door opens, someone will give money.
It is ironic to think that the best building in a county town is actually a flower building.
Although Min County is a county town, as the saying goes, it's okay.
Pei Yun's thoughts will not be discussed for now.
As soon as other people entered the city, many looked around. Some of them came to Min County for the first time and were full of curiosity about everything.
Among the group of people, Sun Yaozu was naturally the leader, but the one who was most familiar with Min County was Aunt Zhao, who had been frequently in Min County before.
After seeing it and being curious, the group of people gathered their emotions. They were here to do business, and they couldn't allow themselves to be delayed. The villagers were waiting for them.
"Sir, let's peel it off and take a walk first. What do you think?" Sun Yaozu said to Pei Yun.
Pei Yun: "You can just make arrangements."
Regarding socializing with people, I don’t want to get involved.
When it comes to communication, it pays more attention to worldliness, and where does the worldliness come from? There is a gap between a modern person and a group of ancients.
It's okay to let yourself think of ways to get things done, but forget about socializing with others.
Xingchanglong is the largest leather shop in Min County, and the shopkeeper’s surname is Zhang.
Shopkeeper Zhang has a high status in Min County. Because he sells furs, he has met many high-ranking officials.
In terms of class, businessmen have the lowest status, but there is a saying that it is easier to do things if you have money.
The world looks down on profit-seeking businessmen, but they know that money is a good thing that everyone wants.
Of course, as a businessman, you also need to have a discerning eye for things and people.
For example, the person in front of you is not someone you can offend.
An old man from the Military and Horse Division looked a bit slovenly, but the military uniform and weapons he wore were enough to identify him. Gong Zihong was his name.
The soldier is very unhappy now because he did not find the fur he wanted.
For this reason, he spit out sweet fragrance, and the spittle splashed on shopkeeper Zhang's face.
Shopkeeper Zhang could only lower his head and keep apologizing.
You must know that this soldier is not using soldiers to coerce others, he is really rich.
Even if he doesn't have the money of Lord Bing, as long as he has money, even if he is scolded, Shopkeeper Zhang will still have to bear it.
There are huge customers in the world. Rich customers are your parents. If you are scolded by your parents, there is nothing shameful. They are all for making money and not shabby.
"The biggest fur store in Min County sells furs like this. It's because you have no skills, or you just hate me."
"How dare you disgust me, Master Bing? It's my fault because I don't have the skills." Shopkeeper Zhang nodded and bowed.
"If I were you, I would have closed down a long time ago. It's really embarrassing."
"Master Bing, I'm still a pity for this little guy. If I'm locked up, how can I make a living? You know, I have an eighty-year-old mother and a three-year-old wife and son."
"Stop it, don't cry pitifully, it's bad luck."
"I know that Master Bing is the master of Qingtian and will never embarrass this villain. I promise that once I find something good, I will tell you as soon as possible, Master Bing."
While he was talking like this, someone walked into the cloth shop.
Sun Yaozu walked in front, followed by Aunt Zhao and Sun Youniang.
Aunt Zhao is very capable of doing things, and taking her with her can help. Sun Youniang is his favorite, so he takes her to see the world when he has the chance.
As for Pei Yun, he felt that such things were the same with or without him, and even Qin Qier was accompanying him.
Seeing the customer arriving, shopkeeper Zhang looked at it first. He was wearing simple clothes and a simple appearance. He didn't look like a customer visiting a leather shop. The next one was empty-handed.
Shopkeeper Zhang couldn't guess what the purpose was.
Seeing that shopkeeper Zhang had business coming to his door, Gong Zihong was not embarrassed and was about to leave. But just as he was about to leave, he heard two words in his ear.
Gong Zihong immediately turned around and said to Sun Yaozu: "Tiger skin? You said you have tiger skin?"
Although Sun Yaozu didn't know who Gong Zihong was, seeing him wearing military uniforms and weapons, he knew that he was not someone he could provoke.
Also, although you look sloppy on the outside and have sharp eyes that hide evil spirits, your appearance can be deceiving, but your eyes cannot.
Sun Yaozu said respectfully: "Master Qi Bing, yes, I was the one who said it has tiger skin."
"real?"
"Of course it's true."
"Where?"
"Just outside the door."
"Okay, I want this tiger skin."
As soon as Gong Zihong said these words, shopkeeper Zhang and Sun Yaozu looked unhappy.
Shopkeeper Zhang didn't look good because the duck he got flew away.
If the tiger skin falls into his own hands, it will also fall into the hands of Gong Zihong, but he can make a fortune from it.
Now, if Gong Zihong and Sun Yaozu are allowed to talk directly, how can I intervene? As a middleman, I can't make the difference.
Shopkeeper Zhang felt resentful.
Why didn't Gong Zihong leave earlier, or Sun Yaozu come later, but they met at this time.
The reason why Sun Yaozu looked unhappy was that the opponent was a soldier.
If I were to sell the tiger skin to Shopkeeper Zhang, I would not be afraid of Shopkeeper Zhang, and I could just bargain for the price.
But the other party is a soldier. If he wants to buy something from you, what can you do if he gives you a random price?
Do you dare not to sell it?
I've heard the term "soldier and scoundrel" a lot. It's just like a scoundrel, someone who won't reason with you.
If you don't obey him, he will find many ways to make you feel uncomfortable.
If the other party is the owner of the leather shop, I can still use the name of the head of Nanshan Village to suppress him.
But the other party is a soldier, and his identity doesn't matter.
Of course, if we really talk about it, Sun Yaozu would have such an idea based on the premise that the other party made random prices and had no money.
In fact, this is not wrong. Although soldiers receive a salary from the court, they are not considered rich people.
Now, Gong Zihong expressed that he wanted the tiger skin. What could Sun Yaozu do? He could only lead him out, and shopkeeper Zhang also followed him out.
Pei Yun and Qin Qier, who were waiting outside, didn't expect Sun Yaozu to come out so quickly, with people following him.
Seeing them walking towards the bullock cart, I immediately understood that they were here for the tiger skin.
Pei Yun thought for a moment and pulled Qin Qier to stand aside.
Gong Zihong and Shopkeeper Zhang were all focused on the tiger skin of the oxcart, but they didn't pay attention to Pei Yun and Qin Qier.
When he saw the tiger skin on the bullock cart, Gong Zihong took it in his hand, and shopkeeper Zhang's eyes widened.
They are all people who know the goods, and they can tell at a glance that the tiger skin is in excellent condition.
Shopkeeper Zhang moved his lips to say something, but in the end he said nothing. The tiger skin fell into Gong Zihong's hands, and everything he said was in vain.
The more Gong Zihong looked at the tiger skin, the more he liked it, and he almost kissed it with his lips.
Sun Yaozu looked a little embarrassed. The tiger skin still belonged to him, but Gong Zihong already regarded the tiger skin as his.
"It can be seen that Master Bing really likes this tiger skin. It is a blessing to find a suitable buyer for this tiger skin." Sun Yaozu said, and the word "buyer" emphasized the tone. This was to remind Gong Zihong that tiger skin
Skin requires money to buy.
"You're right, this is a blessing. This tiger skin should match me. By the way, it's just tiger skin, as well as tiger meat and tiger bones."
Tiger skin is valuable, as are tiger meat and tiger bones.
Tiger meat and tiger bones are both great supplements.
Seeing that Gong Zihong didn't even spare the tiger meat and bones, Sun Yaozu was immediately confused. Whether to take it out or not was a question.
Gong Zihong also saw it at this time and said: "Okay, you think I can't afford the money. Hey, who are you looking down on? Do you know who provides the daily supplies for the Bingma Division? It's me.
Gong family, do you know who is responsible for purchasing daily supplies for the Military and Horse Division? It’s me, Gong Zihong, and you think I will be short of money?"
The supplier is Gong Jia, and the buyer is Gong Zihong.
Isn't there any need to avoid suspicion?
Being able to achieve this step proves that the Gong family and Gong Zihong are quite capable.
Only then did Sun Yaozu realize that he had made a mistake. The other party was indeed a soldier, but he did not expect that the other party was also a master who was not short of money.
