"Wu Shiluo, long time no see!"
Zhao Jun looked at the man's familiar profile, walked up and patted his shoulder.
Wu Shi Luo was also startled by the movement behind him and looked back.
"Master Zhao, it's been a long time since we last met. I didn't expect to actually see you here."
The man's face was thin and weathered, but his smile was particularly sincere.
"Sir, who is this?"
Fusu, who was standing aside, asked in confusion.
"This is a friend I met in Xianyang. He's in the cattle and sheep business."
She explained, then looked back at Wu Shi Luo.
"This is not the place to talk. Why don't you go around the city with us?"
Zhao Jun invited warmly.
I can actually see Wu Shi Luo here. I wonder what he is doing here.
"How dare I refuse your invitation?"
Wu Shiluo smiled and nodded.
"Meng Tian, let's go back first. You can walk around here by yourself."
Meng Tian was still eating with relish.
The King of Zhao didn't want to bother with him, so he took Fusu and Wu Shi Luo out.
Meng Tian: No, I am a guest after all!
After the other three left the market, Zhao Jun did not take him back to the official post station but instead found a teahouse in the north.
"Mm, this milk with nectar tastes really good, but it's a pity that you can only drink it in the north."
Wu Shiluo said after tasting it for a while.
The milk with nectar he mentioned was the same kind that Zhao Jun had drunk before, with a pot of goat honey added to it.
"Boss Luo, have you been to the North before?"
Zhao Jun asked.
From what he said, it seemed like he was very familiar with the North.
"Yes, this place is not far from my hometown. A caravan passed by here before."
Oh, she remembered that Wu Shi Luo’s hometown, Longguan, seemed to be not far from here.
"I see. I didn't expect to meet Boss Luo here. What brought you here?"
"The New Year was approaching and I was planning to go home. When I passed through the North, I heard there was a trade market and a cotton workshop here. I also heard a woman speak and guessed it might be Lord Zhao's work, so I decided to stop by and take a look."
"I didn't expect such a coincidence that I met you just after arriving in the Northland."
Wu Shiluo spoke slowly.
"The appearance of the North is very different from a few years ago. The trade alone is highly praised. This is all thanks to Lord Zhao."
"Your Excellency is very smart in business, and business in Xianyang is now booming."
Wu Shi Luo didn't stop praising.
Zhao Jun smiled and said.
"Whatever is said should be done."
"Did Boss Luo come from Xianyang before? I didn't meet Boss Luo when I was in Xianyang before."
She asked.
"No, merchants like us are naturally wandering around without a fixed place to live."
"I went to Nanhai County, which is quite far from Xianyang, and it took me less than half a year to come back."
Nanhai County?
The King of Zhao remembered that he had seen this county name on a map of Qin.
It is basically the modern Guangdong area, which is indeed a long way from Xianyang.
She silently looked at Wu Shiluo's skin, which was obviously darkening, and immediately had an explanation.
No wonder he got darker, it’s because of sun exposure.
However, Zhao Jun was very curious about Nanhai County.
"Boss Luo, Nanhai County is so far away. How do you feel about this trip? Is it very different from Xianyang?"
What was the Guangdong region like at this time?
The two began to chat about the topography and cultural characteristics of Nanhai County.
Fusu was stunned as he listened.
"This time, I traveled to Nanhai County for nearly two months just by walking. More importantly, although it is now a Qin territory, there are many people of different races living there."
"The environment there is completely different from the area north of Xianyang. The weather is extremely hot, and the mountains and plains are covered with trees. There are many snakes, insects, rats, and ants. There are very few people living there, and even in winter it's not cold and there's no snow. There are many small tribes that are very fierce and not very friendly."
Wu Shi Luo's description was very vivid, which made Fusu, who had no idea about it, seem very fascinated.
Zhao Jun was much calmer.
"But there are also many fun things there. You can see the sea and take a boat to the nearby waters. There is a lot of seafood and many fish we have never seen before."
“There are also a lot of fruits there, and they are very juicy and sweet, not astringent at all.”
"I brought back a lot of good things from there this time."
Wu Shiluo himself seemed to be very excited when he mentioned it.
Even Zhao Jun, who knew something about modern Guangdong, couldn't help but be moved.
In this day and age, very few people would go to such a remote place.
After hearing what he said, Zhao Jun started to think about the good things in Nanhai County again.
"Boss Luo, your caravan brought back a lot of stuff. Can I go take a look?"
"Don't worry, if there's something good, I'll definitely buy it and won't take advantage of you."
Zhao Jun made a generous promise.
"Haha, you're welcome, Mr. Zhao. I brought these things back from Nanhai County specifically to show them to the people here."
"It would be more appropriate to show it to you. I am sure your Excellency will be a great customer."
Wu Shi Luo quickly agreed and said he would take Zhao Jun to see his caravan.
"Sir, my caravan is parked at the Jidu Market, and I was planning to go in and sell some things."
The two began to walk back again.
Fusu, who was full of curiosity, followed closely.
Zhao Jun asked why he didn't see any caravan parked when he entered the market. It turned out that the caravan was parked at the farthest end of the market, or at the back.
