Chapter 779: Are we going to fight?
Jifeng could understand that this was a compliment to him, so he raised his neck high with a proud and arrogant look.
"Third brother, I'm leaving."
Taking advantage of darkness and the fact that there were no outsiders in the desert, Jiang Lianzhu quietly left the marriage alliance group.
***
Jiang Lianzhu flew all night and arrived at the outskirts of the Great Snow Mountain at dawn.
Because Sanlangjun had told her that the black market was located here, and there were many talented people here, and they could easily be discovered riding golden eagles flying in the sky.
Since Jiang Lianzhu is coming here quietly, we have to pay attention.
Jiang Lianzhu also disguised herself, changed into men's clothes, patted the golden eagle on the head, let it fly away from the snow mountain, and found a place to hide herself.
Jiang Lianzhu is 1.65 meters tall, not a particularly short woman. She wore heels, had a small mustache, smoothed her chest, and put on a big cotton-padded jacket. Her chest was not visible at all, but she looked quite like the character.
The snow-capped mountains are rolling and all you can see is a vast expanse of white.
The world is covered with ice and snow, and the mountains, rivers and streams are all frozen.
There is a small town at the foot of the mountain. It is not big, but it has a high flow of people. There are all kinds of shops and people selling small things. The temperature here is low, and everyone wears cotton jackets. The rich wear mink coats. When Jiang Lianzhu entered the town, she could tell who were the natives and who were outsiders with just a glance.
The locals had probably seen many outsiders, so when Jiang Lianzhu entered the town, the guards at the gate just glanced at her and didn't ask her any detailed questions.
It was as if everyone knew why they came.
After entering the town, several eyes were fixed on her.
She just pretended not to notice.
Jiang Lianzhu observed calmly. It was still unclear where the entrance to the black market was.
Take a closer look at the environment first.
We came to a place that sells food. Early in the morning, there were quite a few people eating here.
The food is simple, mutton offal soup with big meat patties filled with mutton, which is full of aroma.
Simple ingredients, simple cooking, bring out the most original aroma of the food, and the portion is generous, the big meat patty is filled to the brim, the mutton offal soup is boiled into a milky white color, and it seems that some kind of spice powder is added to remove the fishy smell, which is very appetizing.
Jiang Lianzhu found a prominent seat and ordered a large portion.
The soup is the same, a big bowl, but the meat patties are divided into small patties and large patties.
The big meat pie was more expensive, so before coming, Sanlangjun gave her some currency from the Darong Kingdom so she didn't have to worry about not having enough money to pay the bill.
The Darong Kingdom used rectangular copper coins engraved with simple moon totems.
After flying all night, my face was frozen. After drinking the steaming hot mutton offal soup, I felt lazy and comfortable all over. Then I took a bite of the big minced meat pie, and the fragrance left on my teeth and lips. That feeling of satisfaction is the feeling of happiness!
The simplest and fastest way to find happiness in the world is to eat something delicious.
Jiang Lianzhu was probably the first person who leisurely looked for food as soon as she entered the town, without caring about anything else.
While she was eating, several groups of people came to her side.
They were all observing Jiang Lianzhu in a sneaky manner.
Jiang Lianzhu sat in the most conspicuous position in the stall, and she was not afraid of being seen.
Someone ordered a bowl of mutton offal soup and came over to her and said, "Little brother, where are you from?"
Jiang Lianzhu looked up at him. He was a middle-aged man wearing a big furry hat.
"From outside."
The man in the big furry hat chuckled twice. "Yes, yes, keep it a secret. Got it? There are many brothers like you from outside. Does that brother know anyone here?"
"No." Jiang Lianzhu took a delicious bite of the meat pie.
The man in the big furry hat looked around, covered his face with the bowl of mutton offal soup, and leaned close to Jiang Lianzhu's ear, whispering, "Little brother, let's not beat around the bush. Are you going treasure hunting? I can see that you are a man of great ability. You sit here calmly eating and drinking after entering the town, looking very confident. Do you have a detailed map? If not, I think you are destined to be together, so I will give you one..."
Jiang Lianzhu followed his words and said, "Do you need a map?"
The man in the big fur hat said, "From what I heard from you, little brother, I know you don't know much about our Great Snow Mountain. We have too many ice caves here. If you go into the mountains without a guide, you will definitely get lost. The ice caves are interconnected, and once you enter, you will get lost and can't get out. The place you want to go is even more full of caves. How can you go without an accurate map?"
Jiang Lianzhu asked again, "How much silver?"
The man in the big fur hat gestured with five fingers and said, "Since you're from another place, you certainly don't have a lot of money from our Great Rong Kingdom. So, you can accept gold and silver items. I'd ask for this amount from others, because I bought it for the same amount, but since we get along well, I'm selling it at a loss, half price. That's fine."
He bent three of his five fingers, leaving two.
Jiang Lianzhu asked, "Two taels of silver? So expensive?"
The man in the big fur hat blushed. "No, little brother, why don't you say it with a little sincerity? What do you mean by two taels of silver? Two hundred taels!! The outsiders who come here are all important people. Who are you insulting by saying two taels of silver?"
He was very angry, and his voice was a little higher with excitement.
The saliva almost sprayed into Jiang Lianzhu's mutton offal soup bowl, and Jiang Lianzhu quickly moved the mutton offal soup bowl to the side of the table.
Jiang Lianzhu shouted, "Two hundred taels is too expensive! Make it cheaper."
As soon as these words were spoken, the other people around who were staring at Jiang Lianzhu came over.
"Little brother, I have something cheaper here. It's exactly the same. I only want one hundred taels!"
"I'll sell it to you for eighty, little brother. I see you look like my long-lost brother, so I'll give you a discount."
"I can sell it for fifty. I have elderly parents and children to support at home. Little brother, please take care of my life."
…
The man in the big fur hat was so angry that his mouth was crooked.
"Grab, grab, grab, grab, grab every time! Didn't we agree that with so many people coming into town every day, whoever spots it first gets it? Do you still understand the rules? Do you want to fight?"
"I saw this little brother as soon as he entered the town!"
"That's right, I saw it too, but I'm not as thick-skinned as you..."
This is also a risky job, because the outsiders who come into the town are all here to look for treasures, and they are all capable people. If you are not careful, the deal will fail and you will often get beaten up.
It depends on the person.
If a normal person goes up and bids ten or eight taels, and others offer half of it, the deal can be made.
This little brother looked delicate and tender, and he was alone, without any acquaintances or friends in the town, yet the big-haired man offered him two hundred taels.
Jiang Lianzhu yelled at him.
Your peers won’t compete with you for a business worth five or eight taels, but who wouldn’t be jealous of a business worth two hundred taels?
