The next day, just as the sky was bright, a man with a command flag rushed out from Li Mu's barracks; a messenger with a bamboo tube on his back.
Hurry up and rush towards the capital...
Three days later · Huzhou City
Three people came in at the gate of the North City, each holding a horse in his hand, looking like a distant visitor.
Let's look at the young man walking in the middle, with the head at the head, wearing a white jade crown inlaid with tufts of hair on his head, with a sapphire blue wide brim and a forehead; wearing a sapphire blue Shu brocade wide-sleeved robe, with eight treasures and pearls tied around his waist. Jade belt, there are not too many complicated and luxurious accessories around the waist, only a small white white jade pendant with red tassels, which looks refreshing and unique from a distance.
This young man was wearing a pair of gold-plated black and green tiger head shoes, walking in all directions, with a smile on his face, and was looking left and right at the shops on both sides of Huzhou City Street.
Looking at the attire of this young man and the shiny black horse he is leading, one can tell at a glance that it is the son of an aristocratic family who is out to play, but this son is slightly different from the jade-faced sons he saw on the streets of Suri. Different, this one actually had a dark face.
The two people behind him were all dressed in commoner clothes and looked like the young man's entourage. The young man on the left had darker skin, but his steps were steady and vigilant.
The man on the right is about the same age as this young man in Chinese clothing, and his eyes are also looking around, with shrewdness in his eyes, like the young servant of this young man in Chinese clothing.
These three people were Lin Wanyue, Meng Ni Da, and Bian Kai who went to Huzhou City to investigate.
Lin Wanyue thought and thought before leaving, and finally brought this outfit out and walked to the boundary of Huzhou City. Lin Wanyue suddenly came up with an idea and found a place to change the outfit.
When Meng Ni Da and Bian Kai saw Lin Wanyue walking out of the jungle wearing this outfit, their eyes were straight, and their shock was no less than that of Xiao Ci that day.
Meng Ni Da even looked at Lin Wanyue and said in admiration, "Captain, when you put on this outfit, I seem to be more noble than the prince of the Marquis of Pingyang from the capital."
Lin Wanyue hooked the corner of her mouth: "Call me Young Master."
…
Although Huzhou City is much more prosperous than Yangguan City, and it is also an important transportation hub, its geographical location is still somewhat north, and it is far worse than Tiandu City. There are dignitaries in Huzhou City, but no one can dress as elegantly as Lin Wanyue.
Lin Wanyue's outfit is from the Shangyi Bureau in the palace; it is the prince's uniform, not to mention in this Huzhou City, I am afraid that it will be top-notch in Tiandu City.
Therefore, when Lin Wanyue and the three entered Huzhou City, they attracted the attention of passers-by. Some shop owners with vicious eyes even shouted at Lin Wanyue, recommending their own things, and wanting to attract the patronage of this "God of Wealth".
Lin Wanyue was unmoved by this, leading Meng Ni Da and Bian Kai around, and walked into a teahouse casually.
The shop assistant with a white clean cloth on his shoulders saw Lin Wanyue coming in from the door, his eyes lit up, he came to Lin Wanyue full of energy, bowed and smiled and said, "Oh, your distinguished guest, this gentleman, Are you going to the private room on the second floor?"
Lin Wanyue glanced at Xiao Er, looked around for a week, and said casually, "No, my son is sitting in this hall."
"Hey, come on!"
The second shop assistant led Lin Wanyue to a table of the Eight Immortals in all directions, took off the clean cloth from his shoulders, wiped the table and stool quickly again, and then asked Lin Wanyue to take a seat.
Meng Ni Da and Bian Kai looked at their battalion commander with an attitude, looked at each other, and almost couldn't hold back their laughter.
"Sir, the shop has Sichuan Green, Dianhong, Mengding Huangya, Junshan Silver Needle, Lu'an Guapian, Yulu Tea, Golden Phoenix, Gaiwan Tea, Banshan Demon, what do you want?"
The shop assistant reported the top-grade tea leaves that almost no one in the shop usually ordered in one breath. After reporting the name of the tea, all the tea customers in the entire hall turned their attention to Lin Wanyue's table.
When these people heard the name of the tea, they almost didn't hold back and spit it out. They thought that this shop's second was slaughtering foreign customers. When they saw Lin Wanyue's outfit, they immediately changed their previous thoughts.
Jun secretly wondered in his heart, when did Huzhou City have such a face-to-face son
So the people in the hall tacitly pretended to be drinking tea, but they all aimed their eyes at Lin Wanyue.
After the shop clerk finished registering a string of tea names, Bian Kai and Meng Ni Da seemed to be listening to the scriptures, and had no idea what he was talking about, so they could only stare at the table in front of them in silence.
Lin Wanyue is actually not much better than these two, but she remembered the last tea name, so she said lightly: "Just bring a pot of Banshan Yao."
"his..."
Hearing the tea Lin Wanyue ordered, everyone else in the hall took a deep breath.
The shopkeeper's face is about to bloom with joy. Their shop has been open for many years, and there are only a handful of people who have ordered the Mid-level Demon. Today, I really saw the God of Wealth, and I have to find the shopkeeper to receive the reward.
"Dare you ask me, what kind of refreshment do you need?"
Lin Wanyue was silent for a moment, then looked at the shop assistant and asked lightly, "Do you have Yulu Delicious Cakes?"
"His..." was an unheard of name for a tea drinker sitting in the hall.
The second shopkeeper also had an embarrassed expression on his face: "Young master, wait a moment, I'll ask the shopkeeper."
"Um."
The shop assistant ran away in a hurry, Meng Ni Da and Bian Kai just wanted to open their mouths to say something to Lin Wanyue, but immediately closed their mouths when they saw Lin Wanyue's eyes.
After a while, the shop assistant came back with the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper came to Lin Wanyue's side, looked Lin Wanyue up and down, and immediately smiled and said, "I'm really sorry, this young master, Yulu only grows around the capital. , our Huzhou is too far from the capital to make the pastries you mentioned, do you think you can change it?"
"Hey..." It's from the capital!
"Oh, then forget it."
"Thank you, son, what do you want?"
"Then just grab a plate of what you have."
"Young master, please wait a moment."
After a while, a plate of delicate refreshments and a pot of tea in an emerald teapot were brought up.
"Guest officer, take it slow." The shop assistant smiled at Lin Wanyue, ready to turn around and leave.
"Second brother, can you sit with me?"
Dian Xiao Er was slightly startled when he heard the words, and said with an apologetic smile: "Young Master, you are really joking, how dare you sit with you, if you have any orders, just say a word, and Xiao is waiting by the side."
Lin Wanyue didn't object either. She raised her hand and poured herself a cup of tea. With the sound of pouring tea, the fragrance of the Mid-mountain Demon overflowed and filled the entire hall in a moment.
Lin Wanyue drank a cup while Bian Kai and Meng Ni stared greedily, put down the teacup, Lin Wanyue looked at the second shopkeeper and asked softly, "Second brother, dare to ask if there is a large caravan passing by recently?"
"This... Although Huzhou City is not big, it is also a hub of the four directions. There are many caravans coming and going on weekdays. I wonder how big the big caravan you are talking about is how big it is?"
"A fleet of hundreds of cars, is there?"
"Yo, I've never seen this little one before."
"Second brother, think about it again? It doesn't matter which way you go!"
"Um… "
The second shopkeeper scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, and after thinking for a long time, he patted his forehead: "Sir, I remember that Su Shibuxing in the south of the city seemed to have taken a lot of big orders a few days ago, and it has been moved for several days one after another. , sometimes it's still starting when it's dark, I don't know if it's a big caravan!"
"Second brother, do you know where this Su's cloth car is going?"
"Everyone who sees them will go to the South City Gate. I'm afraid they will be sold to the south."
After listening to the shop assistant's reply, Lin Wanyue frowned and did not continue to ask questions. After thinking about it, she asked the shop assistant many other questions, and then dismissed the person.
The three of Lin Wanyue came out of the teahouse, led the horse all the way to inquire and walked towards Su's House in the south of the city.
Along the way, Lin Wanyue kept her brows furrowed, and she instinctively told her that this Su's shop was suspicious, but when she heard the second shopkeeper say that all the cars were heading south, she was a little puzzled.
When the three of Lin Wanyue arrived at Su's cloth shop, the whole cloth shop was already empty.
Only a few guys were left cleaning the empty yards and rooms.
Seeing this scene, Lin Wanyue's eyelids jumped, and she came to a guy and asked, "Little brother, is this cloth shop not doing business?"
The man looked up at Lin Wanyue and said angrily, "Why, the shopkeeper's business has grown, and he bought a piece of land in the capital. The cloth shop has moved out, and the yard will be sold after a while."
The three walked out of the cloth line, and Meng Ni looked at Lin Wanyue: "Master, what should we do?"
Lin Wanyue lowered her voice and replied, "My intuition tells me that this Su family's shop is very suspicious, how could they leave in such a hurry? The little Er also said just now that they even traveled overnight, and it would be too much to move. Are you in a hurry?"
"What does that boy mean?"
Lin Wanyue thought for a while, and said to Meng Ni Da: "Ni Da, you are watching in this Huzhou city, and then find a way to inform the commander about Su's arrangement, and let him send people to support you, if you When I found a large caravan and suddenly appeared in Huzhou City, I took the letter from the commander to find the patrol battalion commander in Huzhou City, and stopped the caravan for inspection!"
Meng Ni Da took the envelope that Lin Wanyue took out of his arms with both hands, and asked, "What about you, son?"
"I'll set off immediately with Xiao Kai and chase south!"
"Yes!"
Lin Wanyue nodded, left a small bag of silver money to Meng Nida, got on horseback, took Bian Kai out of the South Gate, and chased south along the official road!
