September 18
The crisp autumn air is perfect for traveling!
Wei Han, who had just hunted a bird monster and benefited a lot from it, couldn't help but fly to the county seat on the snow-capped mountain condor after two days of silence.
There are too few martial arts resources in Qingshan County. After the breakthrough, many things that are in short supply cannot be bought. Wei Han thinks it is necessary to visit the county.
As the gathering place of dozens of counties in Pingzhou Prefecture, the county town is located in a plain, surrounded by dragons and tigers, separated by mountains. Bandits are rampant in various places, making it difficult for ordinary people to come and go.
But Wei Han is different!
He flew high in the sky on a condor.
The journey was smooth, with no detours or worries about bandits. It only took just over an hour to reach the destination.
"Not bad, not too far!"
Wei Han smiled with satisfaction and placed the condor in the forest dozens of miles away, while he walked towards the county town alone.
This is his second time here!
The first time I escorted my senior brother and the others over, but I didn’t go in either.
This time, when I took a closer look, I realized that this county with a population of millions was truly extraordinary, lying on the plain like an ancient giant beast.
Its city walls are tall, thick, and primitive.
There was an endless flow of people coming in and out at the city gate, and there was a long queue.
Occasionally, noble princes on horseback would come in and out, causing crowds of people to get out of the way.
All kinds of merchants and passers-by carrying vegetable baskets, goods, and driving horse-drawn carriages, talking to each other, seemed to be a noisy and prosperous scene, and there was no sense of despair shrouded in the war in Qingshan County.
"Stop, where did you come from?"
"Why are you coming to the county town? Do you have the imperial household registration register?"
"It costs three cents for locals to enter the city, and five cents for foreigners. Be gentle and be friendly to each other. Don't waste time!"
The soldiers at the city gate kept shouting and exploiting passers-by.
Anyone who saw any oil or water would immediately search for it.
Whether it's the hunter's animal skins or the mountain people's dry goods, as long as they like it, they will take some away, and everyone dares to be angry but dare not say anything.
Anyone who dares to resist will probably end badly.
Wei Han disguised himself as a middle-aged warrior with a somewhat ferocious face. He didn't dare to provoke these bullying soldiers, so he let him go after accepting the city fee.
Entering the city, you can see only a few broad streets!
The ground is paved with bluestone slabs, the streets are wide enough for horse racing, various stalls and shops are gathered together, and the merchants are crowded. The warriors all over the street exuded amazing energy and blood, and there were a lot of blood refining realms that were rare in Qingshan County.
The sounds of selling and bargaining are endless!
Duan is a lively and prosperous place, and there is no sign that war is approaching.
Dozens of young people gathered at the city gate. When they saw Wei Han looking up and down, a young man came over immediately.
"I have met this guest, I am Xiao Wu." The young man had an upright face, simple but well-washed clothes, and said politely, cupping his hands: "This young man is a native of the county. His parents died when he was young, and his family was poor. I know the county and the city well, so I boldly became a guide."
"The guest must be from out of town, right? If you are not familiar with this city, how about hiring a boy to guide you? The price is not expensive, it only costs five grand a day."
"No matter whether you want to find a Yahang pawn shop or a Midian charcoal shop, as long as you name it, the villain can guide you to the place. It will definitely save you time and money."
"oh?"
Wei Han became interested.
It's quite novel that there is a profession of guide in the county.
But think about it, these young men from poor families can't raise their hands or carry their shoulders. If they can help people lead the way by relying on their familiarity, they can still make money for food and clothing.
"How did you know I needed a guide?" Wei Han asked with interest.
"My guest looked around after entering the city. It was obviously his first time here." The young man said with a smile: "Although your clothes are not gorgeous, they are clean and tidy, and you look like a martial arts practitioner. You must be generous. People like you Man is naturally the God of Wealth for the villain.”
"That makes sense!" Wei Han threw over a silver ingot with satisfaction and said, "Take me to the largest and best martial arts firm in the city."
"Thank you for the reward!" The young man excitedly put away the silver coins and introduced warmly while leading the way: "Sir, you seem to be a straightforward person at first glance. Maybe you don't like small talkers, so there are many people in this city. It’s a beautiful scenery, so I won’t introduce it to you!”
"Let's get down to business first. If you want to find the best martial arts firm, you probably want to buy some warrior treasures. There are three largest firms in this city, namely Pingzhou Trading Company, Wanbao Pavilion, and Li's Trading Company. Each of them has its own advantages. "
"I recommend that you go to Wanbao Pavilion. This is the largest chamber of commerce in the Dali Dynasty. It is said that semicolons can be found all over the country. All kinds of treasures can be found. The prices are also fair, so you can be honest!"
Wei Han nodded silently when he heard this.
This guide is really good.
"Just go to Wanbao Pavilion!" Wei Han ordered.
"Yes!" the young man continued: "There are three branches of Wanbao Pavilion in our city. There is one in the west of the city. It is only two streets away from here. There is no need to take a carriage. Please come with me."
"Yes!" Wei Han nodded with satisfaction and asked casually: "A family moved to Qingshan County some time ago. Do you know about it?"
"Which family are you asking about?" The young man asked curiously: "There are too many people fleeing with their families these days, and several groups have come from Qingshan County."
"Chen family!" Wei Hanyan said concisely and concisely: "They should open a new pharmacy in the city."
"Oh, you are talking about the Chen family in Qingshan County, and the newly opened Chen's Pharmacy." The young man suddenly realized, and said with all the family treasures: "The first wave of people from Chen's Pharmacy arrived in June, and they were just in the east of the city. With great fanfare, we acquired a store and opened a pharmacy!”
"There has been a lot of commotion in recent months. There was some conflict with the local pharmacy, and there was also a medical competition, which attracted many people to watch."
"Originally, there were several people in the city who disliked them, but then someone spread the news that Chen Qingdai, the eldest daughter of the Chen family, had an irreconcilable relationship with the top leaders of the Shenhuo Sect, and the major forces stopped targeting them."
"oh?"
Wei Han narrowed his eyes curiously.
Unexpectedly, I got a lot of information just by asking casually.
It seems that the Chen family has established a firm foothold in the county.
And 80% of it will develop better than before, so he feels a lot more relieved.
Of course, Wei Han was not interested in visiting.
Now that he has long given up his identity as Dr. Wei, why bother getting involved again?
After a while, the two arrived outside Wanbao Pavilion!
This is a large, antique carved loft with three entrances to the front and back. There are many guests coming and going. The greeters at the door are all girls wearing purple dresses, which looks very majestic.
"Sir, please go in and stroll around. I'll wait outside." The young man stopped walking knowingly.
Wei Han nodded and walked in without saying anything else.
"Master, welcome to our pavilion!"
"I wonder what you need?"
A young girl came forward respectfully and asked.
Wei Han strode into it and said casually: "Do you have a map of monsters and beasts, a blood refining realm training experience, a secret book on the best archery techniques, and a good strong bow?"
"Yes, sir, please move to the second floor."
Upon hearing this, the girl immediately knew that a distinguished guest was coming, and immediately warmly led him inside.
