The hunter started it, and the others who were interested naturally followed suit. With so many people around, the sale went faster, making Dao Cheng feel that what he did was worthwhile, and his luck had improved as well.
Five pairs remained unsold. After the rest were sold out, Dao Chengyi clasped his hands in apology and said he would come again next time. After the crowd dispersed, he started looking around at the straw sandal stalls to attract customers.
These vendors had been eyeing the stalls eagerly, and upon hearing Dao Cheng's introduction, they enthusiastically introduced their straw sandals, resulting in a few transactions.
The rest of the time, Dao Chengyi was free. He took his money and his bundle and wandered around the market, originally intending to find a secluded place to disguise himself.

For a fleeting second, Dao Chengyi wanted to kill this person, but soon he realized that this was an opportunity, an opportunity to enter the city.
"Good day, Steward Mu. I was unaware of this matter. Zhao Er was killed four days ago by a vicious man from who-knows-where."
Seeing Dao Chengyi become respectful, Steward Mu stroked his goatee. He had only come to check on the situation and inquire about the matters the young master had entrusted to him, but he never expected to be pleasantly surprised.
With such a quick mind and a knack for having fun, the young master must be very happy to see her.
Good news, good news
Both of them felt that coming to this event today was the right decision.
