As the three of them hugged each other and saw that the water was about to flood the Jinshan Mountain, Cairu immediately persuaded them with a few words and then stopped the three of them.
Lin Mengya listened to all their conversations.
Although the three of them left with great gratitude, Lin Mengya still looked at their backs thoughtfully.
Cairu understood what she meant, took a step forward and lowered her voice to reply.
"My subordinates have tested them, and it seems that there are no loopholes. I wonder if the master has any other instructions?"
In the Holy City, the more dangerous the place, the more careful she has to be. Traps are always hidden under the appearance of peace.
"No need, I know who they are."
She raised her head and looked at the distant holy mountain in the clouds and mist.
"They are from the temple, and they want to find out if we have the person they are looking for."
Although they were quite careful, they were able to get away with it so easily in front of the city guards, which was really inconsistent with the style of the city guards conducting such a high-profile search.
This can only mean one thing. They simply knew each other's details and deliberately made such omissions.
Cairu's face suddenly tightened, and she frowned and said, "Did the temple have suspicion on us, so they sent people to confuse us?"
Lin Mengya thought for a while, then shook her head.
"No, not to mention that we have been covering our ears and not showing any flaws. If they really suspected us, they wouldn't have let us enter the city so easily. I guess this was secretly used by them to detect people like us. Such caravan methods."
She called the people behind her and inquired carefully. Sure enough, the three people seemed to want to find out their background by chatting with them.
Fortunately, the people he brought this time were all from the Jackdaw Guard, and their words and actions were impeccable. I believe that the three people must not have discovered anything, so they left so easily.
She wrapped her clothes around her body, feeling that she was in the holy city of early summer, but it still felt overwhelmingly cold.
Since they didn't want to expose their whereabouts this time, they followed normal caravan practices in terms of route and others.
If you want to do business in the Holy City, you must first have a guide issued by the Holy City and each fiefdom.
She bypassed her own family on this point and asked the Ma family to prepare it.
Not to mention her relationship with the Ma family, let's just say that Ma Beichen, in order to pursue her good sister Liu Qianrong, tried his best to please her.
She didn't even need to ask for the guide, and the guy just handed it over obediently.
It's just that Lin Mengya always puts sisters first in her eyes. No matter how Ma Beichen behaves, whether she can accept it or not depends on Qianrong's own feelings.
They took the road guide to the "Commercial and Manufacturing Office" in the Holy City, which is responsible for registering caravans. Here, each of them had to be registered with a portrait, write down detailed personal information, and then receive a temporary Credentials for living in the Holy City.
With this certificate, they can rent shops or stalls here.
If not, it will be regarded as operating without a license, and the products will be confiscated and expelled from the holy city; in severe cases, not only will you suffer physical pain, but you will also be banned from entering for life from now on.
But even with such harsh conditions, there is still an endless stream of people coming to the Holy City to do business.
Not only because this is the holy land of the entire Wei Kingdom, but also because here, they can expand their network of contacts, and they may be lucky enough to hug the thick legs of some big shot.
Thick-legged Ben-legged Lin Mengya didn't have this problem. They found a guest house specifically for the caravan to stay.
The conditions here are not as good as those inns outside. At least you can live better if you have money outside.
Everything here must be done according to the voucher you got when you entered the city.
It can be said that this is the place with the strictest hierarchy in the Wei Kingdom, and all this makes Lin Mengya feel uncomfortable.
It’s not simply the feeling of falling from the clouds, but more of dissatisfaction with this rule of measuring others based on status.
Although the atmosphere was depressing when she came last time, it was far less dull than this time.
They are like puppets controlled by a big invisible hand.
Pedestrians on the road were in a hurry, and even the shops on both sides looked a bit depressed.
She sat in the carriage and looked at everything around her calmly.
It wasn't until Cairu arranged everything that the team went to the guest house to rest.
She was relatively good, and at least she could live in a separate house with Cairu, while the rest of the family had to live in a big shop that could accommodate more than twenty people.
Even so, they were invisibly squeezed out by those who came in before.
Lin Mengya didn't understand either. Everyone was here to do business. Why were they so disgusted with her
It wasn't until the waiter brought the rough meal that she took the opportunity to find out the reason.
Perhaps she secretly put away the ingot she had stuffed into her, and then there was a bit of a smile on her face.
But he still lowered his voice and stared outside tightly, as if he was afraid of being discovered by someone.
"Looking at your appearance, you must have just arrived in our Holy City recently. You don't know that the rules in the Holy City are different now from the past. There are rules from above that the number of all merchants can only be kept at around three hundred. Except for fixed merchants like ours, once the number of traveling merchants like you exceeds the number, the first caravan that enters the city must exit."
She raised her eyebrows. No wonder those people looked at her like an enemy. They probably thought that their coming would cut off these people's wealth.
After learning the reason, Lin Mengya felt dumbfounded. These people were so ignorant.
She wasn't the one who made the rules. They were angry and didn't dare to vent their anger on the people in the temple, so they could only vent their anger on people like them.
I couldn't help but shake my head. The temple was really good at this.
In this way, in order to seize the opportunity to make money here, everyone will definitely supervise each other. Once they find anything abnormal about the other party, they can use it as a threat or directly report to the Commercial and Manufacturing Office.
In this way, the people in the Holy City can keep all of them under their control with almost no effort.
The smile at the corner of his mouth turned cold. Only an equally sinister and vicious person could come up with such a sinister trick.
No matter how much the people around them ignored them, they could not waver in the slightest.
They were minding their own business, as if those people were a joke.
Over time, when people arrived later than them, those people immediately shifted the target of their hatred.
Seeing such a scene, Lin Mengya could only respond indifferently.
If people let themselves fall, it is not worth anyone's time to save them.
Cairu soon bought a shop facing the street. What they bought was indeed the best spices. In addition, the prices in the Holy City had unified standards. Therefore, in terms of purely commercial interests, their order In fact, you have to pay half of it.
Therefore, the caravans that can come to the Holy City are almost all wealthy, that is, they come to make money and make a fuss.
After a simple decoration, their spice shop also opened for business.
But just as the guys were transporting bags of spices out of the guest house, a little incident happened.
"Master, someone said that we took their goods."
Cairu hurried to the shop and pulled Lin Mengya, who was checking the surroundings, back to the guest house.
On the way, she told all the causes and consequences that she had learned.
It turns out that because spices are one of the most popular and in-demand goods in the Holy City, there is still a spice merchant like him in the guest house.
But they had always kept their peace, and everything was fine. However, when the guys were transporting spices, a guy from that caravan suddenly chased them out and said that they had taken their own spices by mistake.
You must know that the people of the Jackdaw Guard have received special training, and their eyesight and memory are definitely not at the level of normal people.
They knew whether they got it wrong or not.
They thought that after explaining the matter, the other party would let them go, but unexpectedly, those people insisted that they coveted their own spices, and started fighting over a disagreement.
Because the men of the Jackdaw Guard were ordered not to show their knowledge of martial arts, they suffered some losses in the fight, but those guys didn't get much benefit either. It was clear that they couldn't come, so it was still a matter of looking at the hidden tricks. Not coming out.
However, this incident alarmed many people, and the boss of that family also stood up and insisted on expelling them from the Holy City.
Only then did everyone realize that their purpose was to have one less competitor.
After hearing these things, Lin Mengya frowned.
Whether things are lost or not is a trivial matter, the main thing is that if they make such a fuss, they have to attract attention.
Fortunately, everyone in the Jackdaw Guard knew the importance and did not reveal any flaws at the time, otherwise they might not be allowed to argue now.
The two people rushed back to the guest house as quickly as possible. When they arrived at the door, they heard the noise inside.
"No! Today you steal goods first and beat people later. Let's go, let's go, I have to report to the Sheriff!"
The voice was full of confidence, and he obviously felt that he had defeated them.
Several people from the Jackdaw Guard were standing in the crowd. Although the people around them were pointing or laughing at them, to them, this was an insignificant matter.
It wasn't until Lin Mengya pushed aside the crowd that they quickly walked to their master's side.
Before they could say anything, the man who had made the most noise walked up to her with an angry look on his face.
"It's you! You must have instigated them to steal my spices. You must give me an explanation today!"
That man was tall and thick, and Lin Mengya, who looked slender from a height perspective, was really no match for him.
But the woman's eyes were moving, and instead of showing any trace of panic, there was a strange smile on her face.
"Before you ask for an explanation, do you have to introduce yourself to your family first? You scream at the top of your lungs when you see people. Your family is really a good tutor."
