You know, even if criminals are exiled to other countries, they will never want to return to their own country unless they never want to go back. If they still want to go back, if the king of the Lanyue Dynasty knows about it, they will definitely add more crimes to their crimes and condemn them to another country. The crime of meticulous work.

As for Yu Luo and the others, they were originally assigned from the Hou Mansion, and their status was even more special than theirs. When Zhang Hu thought of these consequences, he couldn't help but worry about Yu Luo.

"I came here because I was worried about you. It's only a little over 1000 miles away. I just happened to come here to have a look."

"Miss, you really have great powers. How did you know that we are in Yueyang City?"

"There is only one inn in that small town near the border. I asked the innkeeper and he said that you set out at midnight last night, so I followed you. Well, making money is secondary. Anyway, your safety is the top priority. , if it really comes to a desperate situation, it doesn’t matter if you don’t want those goods, but you must also take care of your lives and don’t expose your identity.”

Hearing what Yu Luo said, the group of brothers felt moved in their hearts.

"Okay, miss, we understand, but miss, do you know? Hu Liu and Wu Er are amazing. That watermelon, oh no, people here call that watermelon cold melon. Hu Liu actually asked for four taels of silver per pound. Those who have The rich people even said it was cheap. And the tomatoes, Hu Liu asked for three taels of silver per catty. Rich people would buy them in dozens or tens of catties. Ordinary people would also buy a few to try them out. The fruit is very valuable.”

Hearing the words of a brother next to him, Yu Luo raised his eyebrows and was a little surprised.

This is more than double the price she expected. It seems that this year's test is very successful.

"A watermelon weighs seven or eight pounds at least. It seems that it is right to ask Hu Liu to come with him. But I still say that making money is secondary. You all put safety first. When you go out, why don't you go out with me? Don't get involved when others have conflicts, endure the calm for a while, take a step back, and don't offend people you shouldn't offend when the time comes. If anything happens to our identities in Yueyang City, we may not be able to get back."

When Yu Luo heard that the price of these fruits was higher than he expected, he was even more afraid that these brothers would risk their lives for money, so he had to warn them again.

"Okay, don't worry, miss. We won't cause trouble or conflict with others. Peace is the most important thing."

Yu Luo nodded and directly picked up the bag in Zhang Hu's hand, "You go to Dongshi first. If I don't come, don't look for me. I will go back to the small courtyard directly."

"Yes, miss!"

Yu Luo took the watermelon in the bag and headed towards another alley. The two masters and servants who caught up with Ye Lu searched hard in the busy streets, but they couldn't find any trace of Yu Luo. Only Zhang Hu and others were seen heading towards the Dongshi Market.

"Why is she missing? Did the girl leave first? Master, do we still want to follow her?"

"There are so many people, and since we can't find anyone, just follow her subordinates, and they will find her sooner or later."

Zhang Hu and his party arrived at Dongshi. They heard the familiar cries of the brothers in the distance. Following the sound, they saw that the long stall was already crowded with customers.

I don’t know where the brothers borrowed the wooden board from, but it was already filled with baskets of tomatoes and neatly arranged watermelons. Customers gathered around the stall and kept asking about the price.

"There are really a lot of people in the Dongshi Market. Many of them are wearing the same clothes. It seems that they all belong to wealthy families and come out to buy together. That person is really a good person. He actually pointed out a person like this to us. It’s a market where business happens, and it looks like our ten carts of goods will be sold soon.”

The brothers around Zhang Hu could not help but smile when they saw how popular their fruits were.To have such a business, even if they took such risks and worked so many days, it seemed to be worth it.

These things are so valuable. Once all the land is sold, there will be almost 2 of them. Even if they are all raised by their own ladies and gentlemen, it will not be too strenuous.

Zhang Hu took his brothers and went around to the back of the stall and started to help. These fruits were really valuable, and they would feel bad even if one was stolen.

But here, Lai Yelu, who followed quietly, directly ordered Azan to go up quietly.

"Master, they are actually selling cold melons. There are many cold melons. They are bigger and redder than the cold melons that Ximo Kingdom gave to the palace. Just now, someone couldn't afford one, so two people bought one together. They bought one on the spot. It was cut, and the subordinates saw it clearly! And the red fruit, those people said it was delicious. Those people were also very good at doing business. They picked up the fruit slices and put them in white porcelain plates for the onlookers to see. The guests tasted it one by one, and almost all the guests who tasted it sold it, and those who didn't sold it were probably because they were shy and reluctant to part with the money in their pockets."

"They are actually selling cold melons?! In that case, the cars that drove into the courtyard today were all filled with cold melons and red fruits?"

Ye Lu listened to Azan's reply with surprise in her eyes.

With his identity, he naturally knew how rare the cold melons were. If Xi Mo hadn't sent some to the man in the palace in recent years, they wouldn't be able to eat them at all.

Now, let alone the common people who were surprised and curious when they saw Liang Gua, even those high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital would be proud of receiving the Liang Gua from His Majesty.

There are even some people who are reluctant to eat the cold melons they receive as rewards, and just take them out and resell them at a high price, making hundreds of taels of silver.

It is said that there are also cold melon sellers in the Imperial City, but they are all on the black market. The prices are prohibitive for ordinary people, but rich people are proud of it.

Although the cold melon is produced in Ximo, it is not something that poor people can buy in Ximo. I heard that the yield is extremely low and the planting conditions are extremely harsh. It takes a lot of effort to grow a cold melon. and manpower.

But why did that girl have so many cold melons and sell them so hastily and cheaply in the open air?
Watching his master deep in thought, Azan was also thinking silently.

"Master, why don't we buy some, take them back and sell them to the dignitaries in the capital. Anyway, these cold melons are valuable. Not only can the master make a lot of money by selling them, but he can also secretly help the girl earn a lot of money. One stroke, isn’t this the best of both worlds?”

Hearing what Azan said, Yelu suddenly became happy!
"Wonderful! This is a good idea. I had a very bad impression on her before. If this happens, maybe we can turn our hostility into friendship. Why not?"

"Come on!"

Ye Lu gave an order, and a man in black, hiding in the darkness, descended from the sky. The people who passed by Ye Lu were so frightened that they were stunned on the spot. Then they looked back at how they were dressed, and the passers-by were so scared that they hurriedly avoided it.

"Go and ask them how many cold melons and red fruits they have. Then you buy them all and immediately send them to all the shops under my name in the capital to sell them." (End of Chapter)
