Chapter 6 An orderly market

You'an and Wang left the alley and saw the layout of the streets and alleys. There were special inner gates to guard them. It was a closed structure. The inner alley was like a community, and the inner gate was equivalent to the property at the gate.

"Should the envoy go to Jia City or Guanfu City?" Wang Li adjusted his mentality and took You An around as he did his duty.

You'an didn't know the difference, "Jia Shi?"

Wang Li almost slapped his head. It turned out that the divine envoy didn't know this either, but it seemed to make sense.

"In Da Qin, private traders will be in Jia City, and the one run by the government is called Guanfu City. Chang'an Township is a bit special. Many of them are soldiers who have retired from the battlefield, and they are combined with the military market." Wang Li obviously didn't spend much time shopping, "Guanfu City There are all kinds of things in the city, but there are some weird things in the private sector, but it depends on luck.”

Jia City, which Wang Li knew about, would definitely not be a black market. Youan understood immediately when he heard it, "Then go directly to Guanfu City."

She just came out to take a look, and had no intention of spending half a liang of Qin on it.

You'an walked all the way and had only one feeling: Qin Chao really had everything organized, the alleys were closed, and even the market was closed.

You can see the entrance and exit of Guizhou in front of the gate. Not far away, there is a small building built on a rammed earth platform. You can overlook the entire market from a high place. There is also a towering flagpole, which is a very conspicuous sign.

This time You'an came too late, otherwise he would still have seen Jujing Dangshi.

There was no need for the city officials to check if she didn't bring any goods, but when she passed by, she noticed that the clerk would stamp the goods, which was also very rigorous and cumbersome, but no vendor dared to complain.

Wang Li came in and introduced smoothly, "The smaller the shops here, the more expensive the things they sell."

This is strange. This is the first time that You'an knows such a rule.

"Like this one, the front is not more than ten feet, but it is more than seven feet. It is cheap goods."

Youan could see at a glance that it contained some beans and wheat. She was disappointed that she couldn't even see millet in the market.

She was dazzled by what she saw, but she was also very quick. After all, there were not many things in the market, it was just a novelty.

Wang Li went shopping with her. She had no intention of buying, but she saved him some money. His father didn't give him any extra money when he went out, so he didn't have much money left.

However, when he saw the person selling a living person, all the novelty and relaxation he had felt before were gone. Wang Li had a look of annoyance on his face, but he had forgotten about it. It was just that he was already used to the slave trade. Would the envoy be angry?

You'an no longer wanted to go shopping, "Where is the factory?"

Wang Li didn't understand what she was going to do, so he still took her to the workshop. When he got here, Youan felt that the carpenter's work in Qin Chao was a little too detailed.

There are people who make wheel canopies, people who make farm tools and oxcarts, people who make book knives that engrave slips...but there are no people who make chairs.

After thinking for a while, You'an entered the craftsman's workshop and asked the craftsmen. He drew a simple pattern with a carving knife, and the communication was very laborious.

Wang Li followed and moved forward, looking at the envoy to see if she was shy or unhappy. When he saw that she had no abnormality, she stretched her neck longer and looked at the strange structure. There was no sense of surprise at all.

"what is this?"

"I'm used to sitting on this." You'an stood up straight without even daring to glance, thinking about how to get out his underwear.

I haven’t seen anything with needle eyes yet, but I might in the future.

Perhaps he had seen something even more bizarre and strange, but Wang Li was just curious and asked no more questions.You'an took a rough look around and found nothing worth continuing, so he decided to try his luck at the drug store. The sooner he found Artemisia, the sooner he would give the Qin people a little shock.

The medicine shop still returned without success. Youan remembered the useful but sun-burning golden finger, and asked Liuhe without any hope, "Do you know where there is Artemisia wormwood?"

"know."

Not only was Youan surprised when he finally answered in the affirmative, Liuhe himself felt much more confident.

It’s been a long time since I’ve been able to communicate with my host with such confidence.

"Turn left ahead, turn right, go straight, turn left, go straight..."

"..." You'an only remembered a left turn, "You can show me the way later."

Wang Li was even more confused and just passively followed You'an. The roundabout road made him feel dizzy even though he grew up in Chang'an Township. It was obvious that You'an had a serious face and thought something big had happened, so he swallowed back what he wanted to ask.

You'an's face was expressionless, but his heart was already filled with confusion and confusion.

After walking for less than half an hour, she had a body that had not yet fully grown when she was 14 years old. Her legs were sore from walking and she couldn't show it, otherwise it would be too embarrassing.

After walking a winding road, I finally found it in a shady corner. A small piece of Artemisia sativum stood there. If I glanced over it with my naked eye, I would probably not be able to count it.

She was not particular about it. She dug out the whole root by pulling at the moist soil. Wang Li wanted to help, but the force was too strong and he broke the root system of the roundworm in one go. You An gave him a look and he stepped aside obediently.

"Angel, is this some good medicine?"

You'an grabbed a handful of roundworms and gave Wang Li a meaningful look when he heard Wang Li's question. The hair on Wang Li's arms stood up at the sight of Wang Li, who was not even afraid of going to the battlefield.

"Yes, a good medicine to cure the disease." I'll give it to you first.

After going out for a while, he finally gained something. You'an's mood improved a little, "By the way, Mr. Marquis, do you have a craftsman in your family who specializes in making utensils?"

She was so confused that she actually went to the market outside to find craftsmen. The best ones were not all in the official family.

Wang Li shook his head, "The Wang family does not raise them specifically, but some of the Mo family live in Chang'an Township and study some weird things on weekdays. If the gods need it, I can take them there."

You'an patted her head in a down-to-earth manner. She was really busy. There are hundreds of schools of thought. Although the Dharma family is the dominant one and the Confucian family is trying to take advantage of the loopholes, other families don't really care about worldly affairs. They always want to find someone who can be called Ying. A place where governments treat each other differently.

Otherwise, they will not be able to accept it if it is lost to the public and the school's ideas are suppressed.

"Okay, is it convenient to go now? I want them to help me make something." She didn't eat rice, but she couldn't swallow the shelled rice. It just had fish bones stuck in her throat and she had to swallow, even if it was Even if you are said to be squeamish, you have to change.

Millet is mainly grown in the south, so it’s not too much for her to get wheat flour out of it, right?

"It's convenient. The Mo family doesn't have much work to do right now. They've been tinkering around all day and haven't accomplished anything."

Naturally, His Majesty wanted to arrange for them to go to Chang'an Township, but Wang Li had been watching them for several months without producing anything good enough to be rewarded. If they didn't break out of the predicament, His Majesty would forget about them.
