Chapter 82 Purchase News
The next day, Wang Yao secretly left the Kuanglang Martial Arts School. Only Zhang Yun and Wen Bingdie knew about it. Of course, he announced to the outside world that he was in seclusion.
Wang Yao wore a conical hat, a common green suit, and a beard on his face, disguising himself.
In an inconspicuous pawnshop, Wang Yao waited until there was no one else around before standing in front of the counter, pretending to be an ordinary customer.
"Sir, what treasure do you need to pawn?" The pawnshop clerk was naturally accustomed to Wang Yao's attire. He thought that such a person was a fat sheep with good things, so the clerk was very enthusiastic.
Wang Yao said in a hoarse voice: "God knows the truth."
The man's face changed when he heard this, and he also responded, "I know geography."
Wang Yao continued, "I know everything."
The guy also replied: "I know everything."
"Sir, please follow me. Our boss is waiting for you in the back." The waiter became very active and even a little attentive.
Wang Yao followed him around to the back, where a secret door was opened by the waiter turning the candlestick a few times, and Bai Xiaosheng's information sales point appeared in front of Wang Yao.
Various mechanisms, gears, and countless luminous pearls illuminated the dim room. Wang Yao opened his mouth and could only say that it was too luxurious.
There was also only a counter and a window in the room, and a person wearing a mask with ears and eyes was waiting at the window.
At this time, the waiter had already closed the secret door and was guarding outside according to the rules.
Wang Yao walked to the counter and took out an ancient copper coin with a strange word "Xiao" engraved on it.
After he got the first place on the Yellow List, Xu Tong found him again and gave him ten of these copper coins and a map of the strongholds of the Zhang Wu Dynasty in various places.
Copper coins are the currency needed to purchase information, and Bai Xiaosheng will provide some of them for free to potential warriors.
If you want to get it again, you must complete the tasks issued by Bai Xiaosheng from time to time.
As long as other forces reach a certain level, Bai Xiaosheng will set up bases for them, and all major forces will tacitly accept their existence.
After all, there is no harm, and there are multiple channels to obtain information.
This was also Wang Yao's first time visiting Bai Xiaosheng's territory, so he didn't know the quality of the information.
"I'm Bingsan at your service. What information does this guest need?" The masked man glanced at the coins in Wang Yao's hand and nodded.
"I want to know the list of all the people who participated in the destruction of the Kuanglang Gang." Wang Yao said hoarsely.
"Please wait a moment, sir. We will immediately find the files for you and assess the value of the information." The masked man took a brush and wrote a line of words on a piece of paper.
He pulled a silk thread, and a secret compartment beside him opened, and the note was placed inside.
They just stared at each other in amazement. Wang Yao waited patiently, and in less than an incense stick of time, the secret compartment popped open again.
Inside was an envelope and a small note. The masked man picked up the note and took a look at it.
"The information the guest needs is worth three copper coins. Do you accept it?" The masked man looked at Wang Yao and asked.
"I don't even know how much information is in this envelope. Can't I take a look?" Wang Yao asked.
"No, we have to pay for the goods first, and our pricing must be reasonable. If you don't have enough copper coins, you can choose to complete our task." The masked man shook his head firmly and pulled another string. A white cloth fell from the side of the counter.
There are tasks listed on the white cloth, and the copper coins that can be obtained by completing them are marked on the back.
For example, providing the specific strength of the top leaders of the Three Fists Gang is worth one copper coin; providing the personal information of Chang Hai, a new disciple of the Zhonghe Sect, is worth one to three copper coins depending on the situation.
They were all sects that Wang Yao didn't recognize. It wasn't until he reached the bottom that Wang Yao calmed down and realized it was the Nandou Sect.
Providing the whereabouts of the leader of Nandoumen is worth ten copper coins.
They are all tasked with providing information. The principle of keeping oneself out of trouble is implemented very well, but providing information does not touch the bottom line of the major forces.
"Number C3, right? I don't need to complete any tasks. Here, here are three." Wang Yao snorted coldly and took out three copper coins and gave them to the masked man.
The masked man silently took the copper coins with one hand and handed the envelope to Wang Yao with the other.
Then he said without emotion: "Happy business. If you are satisfied with Bai Xiaosheng's information, please come again next time.
If you have valuable information, please provide it to us and we will buy it at a price that satisfies you."
Wang Yao nodded slightly, put the envelope close to his body, turned around and walked out.
"Your jade pendant is very nice. Welcome to come again next time." The clerk sent Wang Yao out of the store enthusiastically and said in a pretentious manner.
Then Wang Yao came to the place where Ergou and Shitou lived, which was still a broken house with rotten beds.
However, there is one room that was renovated very well by the two of them, and this is the room with the tunnel.
"Shi Tou, Shi Tou?" Wang Yao saw that Shi Tou was the only one lying on the bed, reading a book and practicing calligraphy out of boredom.
"Ah, is that you, brother? You're here. I haven't thanked you for saving my life the day before yesterday." Shi Tou recognized Wang Yao's voice and struggled to get up despite his weak body.
"How is it? How is your recovery? Where's Ergou?" Wang Yao held him down and injected another stream of wood energy into him.
Shitou immediately felt much better, heaved a sigh of relief, and said to Wang Yao gratefully, "I feel much better now. Thank you, big brother. By the way, Ergou went out to buy some medicine for me."
Wang Yao nodded, smiled slightly, and said, "Just rest and recuperate. Don't worry about what's happening outside for now. How's your character recognition going?"
Shi Tou's face turned red, and he covered the name of the book with his hand, stammering and unable to speak.
"Haha, do you think it's a shame for a warrior to read books and he will be looked down upon?" Wang Yao had already seen the name of the book and asked deliberately.
"Well, no, it's not." Stone didn't know how to answer.
Wang Yao looked at Shi Tou. He was more honest and sensible than Er Gou.
"Let me tell you, the Martial Ancestor was both civil and military, so what is there to be ashamed of? It's good to be proud of martial arts, but that doesn't mean you don't have to know the word 'martial artist'." Wang Yao raised his voice and said seriously.
Shitou seemed inspired. He slowly removed the title of the book that was covering it and said, "Brother, I understand. I will definitely learn all of this Shuowen Jiezi."
Shuowen Jiezi is the elementary textbook for children in this world. It is a bit more profound than the Three Character Classic. Wang Yao sighed.
How can a poor person practice martial arts if he can’t even recognize all the characters? If I give you a martial arts manual, how can you learn if you don’t even recognize the characters?
"Shi Tou, I'm back! I brought you some pig's trotters to nourish you!" Er Gou walked into the house happily carrying two paper bags.
"Who is it? Who are you?" Ergou was very alert and did not recognize Wang Yao at first glance like Shitou.
Wang Yao took off his bamboo hat, smiled at Ergou and said, "Ergou is me."
Ergou then recognized Wang Yao and said happily, "Brother, why are you like this? You don't have to dress like this to see the stones."
Wang Yao was too lazy to pay attention to this idiot. He turned around and moved a large vat. There was a tunnel underneath.
"During this period of time, follow Shitou and learn to read well. Don't run around. Do you hear me?" Wang Yao left his instructions before going in.
"Ah?" Ergou was in tears.
