There was only one line of small words written on the note.
"Go to Zhuji Zhugong Lake Farmers Market to find Lao Jia,"
When Wen Zhouhua saw this, he frowned and said, "Didn't you say that we will pay in one hand and deliver the goods in one hand in Hangzhou? Why did it change to Zhuji?"
"I don't know, it seems...this buyer is very careful," I said with a frown.
Zhuji is only more than an hour's drive from Hangzhou. There was a small class driving on the road. I sat in the passenger seat and kept thinking about what to do next.
Jiu Qingning only asked me to come to Hangzhou and find a man named Nie. There is a nickname in this industry called "Anxiang Shuying." As for why the nickname is this? To be honest, I didn’t know. At that time, I only knew that this southerner had a huge business. It was said that he had private cooperation with dozens of foreign museums. Only such a big buyer could spend tens of millions at a time. Buy goods.
I arrived in Zhuji at around three o'clock in the afternoon. I was completely unfamiliar with this city, and I didn't know where the Zhugong Lake Farmers Market was. I couldn't understand a word of the dialect spoken by the locals. Finally, I found this farmer's market after asking around.
There were a lot of people in the market in the afternoon, so Xiaoban stayed behind to watch the cars. Wenzhouhua and I went in to look for people, and finally found a fish seller. The boss was named Jia. He was in his forties, with a big beer belly and a leather apron. He had a bald head and a fish in his mouth. When you smoke, you kill the fish with your hand and the knife.
I was not sure if the big buyer "Anxiang Shuying" was this person, so I went up to talk to him.
"Hello boss, bring me a fish."
With a cigarette in his mouth, he looked at me and said loudly: "What a small mistake! Oh, stuffed gourd fish into it?"
"What's the matter?"
I said I don’t call it a small mistake, and I don’t buy gourd carp, I buy grass carp.
Only later did I realize that the local accents in Zhuji are special and different, and it is extremely difficult for outsiders to understand them. The fish seller like this one has the accent from Anhua Town. They usually don't say "hello" when greeting you, but all say "hello". "Small mistakes are good, old mistakes are good," is the meaning of "little master" and "old master".
What he said, "Longbaimaazi'en?" probably meant what kind of fish you bought. Anyway, it's pretty much the same. Don't laugh at me, local friends.
My impression when I went there was that Zhuji people were arrogant, and young men liked to show off. Even if they only had five dollars in their pockets, they would still find ways to smoke ten-dollar cigarettes. Moreover, Zhuji people looked down on Jinhua people, Xiaoshan people, and Yiwu people. people.
Zhuji had several major industries that were relatively developed at that time. One was the sock industry, and the other was the gambling and sex industries. Don’t underestimate this small place. The big bosses in Wenzhou would come here to gamble when they were free. This kind of industry was hidden among the people. The casino is a mixed bag, with countless masters. The mysterious buyer "Anxiang Shuying" who has not yet appeared is said to control part of the local casino business.
Seeing that I couldn't understand the local dialect, the fish seller slapped the fish-killing knife on the chopping board and said loudly in Mandarin: "Why are you talking to me if you don't want to buy fish?"
I walked over and whispered: "I don't buy fish, I fucking sell fish."
"Oh? You're selling fish, what kind of fish are you selling?"
"Goldfish, I sell goldfish, a specialty of the north." I said.
His expression changed and he immediately asked me to come into the room for a secret chat.
After entering the house, he took off his leather apron and asked directly: "Where is the goods?"
"It's in our hands, you want to see it now?"
He squinted and said look now.
"Are you Anxiang Shuying?" I asked.
He smiled, shook his head and said, "I'm not! That's the big boss. It's not easy for you to meet him."
I definitely don't agree with this. It's against the rules. I'm dealing with the big boss "Anxiang Shuying". If I can't see the buyer in person, I definitely won't show the goods to anyone.
After a dispute, I expressed my position again and again: "That's it! My goods won't show up until people see them!"
"Hey, wait! I'll call and ask for instructions!"
After a few minutes, the fish seller came back and said, "Let's go! The boss said he can see you! I'll take you there!"
"Where to go?" I asked.
He blew out a puff of smoke and said with a smile: "Zhejiang Socks Industry."
