On that day, Zhao Zhen secretly sealed Liu Tang, Shi Qian, Tang Long, and Pei Xuan. After lunch, he arranged for the heroes to go to the military camp to stay with Ruan Xiaowu and Ruan Xiaoqi. Zhao Zhen took With his wives and concubines, and ten soldiers of the Forbidden Army as guards, the group rode to the county town to visit their parents, brothers and sisters-in-law.

On the way, Hu Sanniang couldn't help but feel a little nervous. She held the reins tightly with both hands and spoke less.

When Zhao Zhen saw it, he drove his horse to Hu Sanniang's side and said softly: "Sanniang, don't worry. The eldest wife, Cheng Wan'er, and the three of them have also paid their respects to their parents. My family was originally just a family in the head of Guizhou. It was only in these years that we got property." The family members are all high-ranking, so there are few rules. My parents, brother and sister-in-law are good people, so Sanniang doesn't have to worry."

Ji Minghan and Ji Minglian, who were riding on horseback, also ran over and comforted Hu Sanniang for a few words, and Hu Sanniang relaxed a little.

The group entered the county seat and went straight to Zhao Jin's residence.

The mighty motorcade came from a distance, and Zhao Jin saw it early. By the time Zhao Zhen and his party stopped, Zhao Jin had already greeted his mother Li E and walked out of the counter. Zhao Zhen quickly dismounted and called himself father and mother.

The family walked through the shop and entered the back hall. Zhao Zhen led Hu Sanniang forward to meet Li. Li E smiled and said: "Last time, I heard Erlang said that he wanted to marry a beautiful girl. I never expected that she would be so tall. Erlang and You are a lot shorter when you stand together, and your children will probably not be shorter either."

Listening to Li E's joke, Hu Sanniang was relieved.

At night, after a family banquet, Zhao Zhen and others returned to Nanshi's house to rest.

That night, Ji Minghan and Ji Minglian took Zhao Zhen back to the east chamber early, and Ji Qingwan had to arrange for Hu Sanniang to stay next to Ji Xuan in the west chamber.

Sure enough, that night, the twin sisters tried their best, and the three of them struggled for half the night before falling asleep. Exactly:

Tingting Chuchu, a jade female fairy. So cute, so commendable!

On the second day, Zhao Zhen and his party returned to Bailiu Village.

In the next few days, Zhao Zhen drank and ate meat with his brothers every day and competed in martial arts. Seeing that the appointed time was approaching, Zhao Zhen ordered his troops and horses and set off for Hanji Township.

It was the Cold Food Festival, and no one made a fire on the road. They only ate dry food, pickles, vegetables and the like. It was getting dark, so the group arrived at Hanji Township. I don't know if it was because of the night, but Zhao Zhen just felt that the atmosphere in Hanji Township was much more solemn. Zhao Zhen and his party were planning to enter Hanji Township. Song Shiqin and Song Jinhong were waiting outside the township gate.

After exchanging pleasantries, Song Shiqin led Zhao Zhen to a camp that had been set up first. Along the way, the townspeople were carrying lanterns and coming and going in a hurry, looking busy.

Song Shiqin said: "Brother Zhao Zhen, please rest here today. I will send someone some hot water, soup cakes and other things. Let me rest early today. I will ask you to talk in detail tomorrow."

Zhao Zhen said: "Brother Song, go and do your own business, I don't need to worry here."

Song Shiqin cupped his hands and left in a hurry.

Zhao Zhen ordered everyone to check the camp and found nothing wrong, so he arranged to have a meal and rest.

Early the next morning, Zhao Zhen and others also got up early and dressed themselves up.

The guard Song Qian whom I had seen earlier brought meals and invited Zhao Zhen to discuss matters.

Zhao Zhen gave a few instructions to everyone, took Liu Tang with him, got up and followed Song Qian. While walking on the road, Zhao Zhen observed carefully and saw that although the people in the town were coming and going in a hurry, they did not show any panic and seemed to have already adapted.

After seeing the ceremony, Song Shiqin said: "Brother Zhao Zhen, could you have a good rest last night?"

Zhao Zhen said: "Nothing happened last night, it was quite safe. I wonder what Brother Song has planned for today?"

Song Shiqin asked: "Brother, there is no hurry. After dinner, I will go to the pile with my brother to have a look, and then we will make a plan. I wonder if my brother has any extra Tridacna magic weapon in his hand?"

Zhao Zhen had long thought that although he brought the sergeant here this time, he did not intend to bring him into the fog. He only took eleven people including Liu Tang, Hu Sanniang, Dong Laodao, Ji Minghan and Ji Minglian, together with himself, for a total of fourteen people. Each person holds either a sapodilla dagger or a mahogany sword, or wears a rosary made of eighteen-dimensional clams.

Naturally, there were enough magic weapons, and Zhao Zhen also wanted to sell them, so he took out a string of first-class clam beads from his arms and said: "I have a few clam beads here, which are only first-class Buddhist treasures and have only one characteristic. Buddha’s light can help people calm down and suppress demons and ghosts.”

With that said, he handed the rosary to Song Shiqin. Song Shiqin took it, felt it carefully in his hand, and handed it to Song Jinhong who was standing aside. After the two of them looked at it, Song Jinhong said: "It is indeed a magic weapon. I wonder how many of them Zhao Lizheng can give away? Is there anything better?"

Zhao Zhen shook his head and said: "The clam is mostly a first-level material. More than 600 beads were made, but only more than 140 beads can emit Buddha light. Now only seven pieces of the Eighteen Realms have been made. Rosary."

Song Shiqin said: "Brother, the selling price of weapons of this level is usually 600 guan and up. There is no market for magical weapons except here. My brother originally used the eight tails of spiritual fish, which was converted into less than 2,000 guan in silver. I paid 400 guan for the price." How about an acquisition?”

Afraid of Zhao Zhen's reluctance, Song Jinhong immediately said: "The Buddha's light of this rosary has a protective effect. Holding it can indeed cause harm to the soul. It would be even better if it was made into a weapon. The protective power of this Buddha's light is also Unsatisfactory.”

It was not easy for Zhao Zhen to refute, after all, what Song Jinhong said was true.

Song Shiqin said: "Brother, what's the price?"

Zhao Zhen said: "I can sell all seven rosary beads to Brother Song. Put them all together and ask for 3,000 beads. However, I don't want cash here. Please change them to cotton or cotton cloth. But the price must be discounted." "You two have been growing cotton here for many years, and I think there are some exotic species. It would be best if you could use this as a replacement."

Song Shiqin and Song Jinhong looked at each other, Song Shiqin said: "That's the calculation." Song Jinhong also said: "We do have some exotic cotton here, which has been made into cloth long ago. The output of these exotic cottons is not large, so the cotton cloth will naturally be less. It is even rarer on the market. If Zhao Lizheng needs it, I can certainly exchange it here, but the quantity is not large, and most of them have to use ordinary cotton. "

Zhao Zhen nodded and agreed. It was an unexpected surprise to have such a harvest.

Song Shiqin said: "The transaction is not urgent. I will take my brothers to Qudui first to take a look. Today at noon time, we will enter the fog. At this time, the Yang energy is at its strongest. Although it is difficult to distinguish between morning and dusk in the fog, after exploration, it is indeed true that at noon The ghosts and ghosts are the weakest in the fog.”

Zhao Zhen took out the other six strings of Tridacna rosary beads in his arms, handed them to Song Shiqin, and said, "Brother Song will use these rosaries first. We will trade them after the trip to Qudui is completed."

Song Shiqin did not shirk, reached out to take it, and said, "Thank you, brother. I really need it here, so you're welcome. Brother, please rest assured that this transaction will not be unfair to you."
