Chapter 40 That's natural

 After hearing what Zhao Sheng said, the medicine stall owner was almost frightened.

Originally, he tried his best to bargain with Zhao Sheng, but if it weren't for his silver medal status, he would have driven him away long ago.

It's just that in this city, although there are not many people holding silver medals, there are still a few.

Therefore, he didn't pay too much attention.

Now it sounds like this person is actually the elder among the two of them?

He has been selling medicine at a stall here for several years, so he naturally knows the identities of these two people.

The patrol guards in Donghuamenfang City usually don't go out, but when they go out, several stalls will be in trouble.

Although most of the things sold in the market have no taboos, this is the palace after all, and there are always some things that cannot be touched.

But there will always be people who don't obey the rules, and at this time the patrol guards need to take action.

The stall owner had seen the ruthlessness of the guards, and he had done nothing wrong, but when he saw the two men standing in front of him, he was frightened to death.

And he was actually bargaining with the patrol guard?

"I'm a clumsy little person, please forgive me, but I'm a little careless, so please accept it."

The stall owner respectfully presented the medicinal materials Zhao Sheng wanted to buy and did not dare to mention the money again.

"You are quite aware of current affairs."

Zhao Sheng teased and threw him a banknote.

The denomination of the silver note was one hundred taels, and Zhao Sheng entrusted the people in the cleansing room to exchange it for him.

"At the price I just said, you won't lose anything."

Zhao Sheng Eye Poison knows how much these medicinal materials should be sold for.

Originally, the stall wanted to sell one hundred and sixty-eight taels, but he said that for the sake of the silver medal, he would give a round number.

But Zhao Sheng knows that one hundred taels is enough. The stall owner will not make much, but he will never lose money.

"Sir... how dare this... villain?"

The stall owner was holding the banknote in both hands and almost cried, as if these one hundred taels were a hot potato.

In this world, just adding a tiger skin can make people so scared that they are eager to spend money to buy disaster.

Zhao Sheng waved his hand.

"Doing business is doing business. If you want to rob someone for your own personal gain, wouldn't it destroy the market?"

In fact, he could have robbed it by force, after all, he was using Xiao Lizi's token, but he didn't want to.

We are all poor people, and we have to bear each other's burdens to survive.

The stall owner wanted to say more, but the two patrolling soldiers next to him glared at him.

"Just accept it if you are told to do so!"

After the two of them finished speaking, they said to Zhao Sheng respectfully: "Sir, the goods in your room are full. I haven't seen you in these days, so it's hard to clean up."

What room? What kind of goods? I don’t understand... Zhao Sheng pretended to be calm, raised his head and said: "Lead the way."

Now that the token was discovered, he couldn't just run away in front of everyone, so he simply took a look.

Judging from the fact that these two people are respectful to me, it shouldn't be a big deal.

The two of them nodded quickly and led Zhao Sheng towards the depths of Fang City.

"This gentleman's character has changed. If he had been before, he wouldn't have given me money. Who said that guy was so ignorant that he contradicted you?"

One of them whispered to his companion.

When Zhao Sheng heard this, he immediately clenched his fists and thought of several escape plans.

"What are you talking about? It's not necessarily the same person who comes with the token. Maybe it's another person coming this time?

If you say bad things about another adult in front of this adult, you may get into trouble."

Another person refuted in a low voice.

I understand, this city recognizes cards but not people... Zhao Sheng silently loosened his fist.

The Nanku in Chongzuofang City is very large, three stories high.

The two took Zhao Sheng to a room on the second floor and knocked on the door. Someone walked out and took Zhao Sheng in.

"The adults are finally here. The goods in the room are getting fuller and fuller. If we want to restock, there is not enough room to put them."

The man wore a mask and said with a smile.

Zhao Sheng didn't understand and looked around through the mask.

The room is not big, but it is full of boxes.

He only glanced at it and immediately took a breath.

Boxes full of gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin are all very expensive.

He glanced to the other side again, his nose twitching slightly, and the blood in his body began to boil faintly.

The medicinal materials placed inside are all expensive. I am afraid they are old and pure. They are goods with a price but no market!

Are these things all looted from the market?

Zhao Sheng was puzzled and didn't ask any more questions, just waiting for the man to speak.

The man picked up a pair of account books from the desk next to him and turned them over to Zhao Sheng to read.

"My lord has not been here for nearly half a year, and the monthly rental fee for the room is recorded on it.

It has been transferred from your account and has not been credited."

Zhao Sheng took it over and looked at it carefully and found that they were all accounting details.

"The monthly rent is fifty taels, but this small room is so expensive."

Zhao Sheng was amazed in his heart, handed the account book to the person, and said calmly: "Every matter must be handled according to the rules."

"That's what the adults said."

The man put down the account book with a smile and picked up a paper from the desk.

"My lord, have you never been here before?"

He suddenly said something, and Zhao Sheng immediately became nervous, pretending to be calm and calm, and nodded.

“It’s my first time here, so I don’t know much about it.”

The man smiled and said: "The adults are all busy, so it's normal for some things not to be explained clearly. There will be a little old man to explain something."

He clicked on the cargo boxes placed in the room and said: "The market is prosperous, and rare treasures can always be found.

If you see a good one, buy it from that person. Of course, the price will be cheaper, which is normal.

The market is also large, and it is divided into many small workshops, which are handed over to adults to take care of.

The incoming goods are placed here. When the quantity is large, they are unloaded outside. After deducting the cost, 50% of the resale money can be handed over to the boss.

It’s your business to unload the goods, resell them, and hand over the profits.”

Zhao Sheng was confused when he heard it, but he generally understood it.

This is the way the Lord of Fangshi wins people’s hearts.

Divide the city into regions and give your subordinates the power to benefit from the public good. At the same time, you save energy and make money, killing two birds with one stone.

Everyone in the city recognizes people by their cards. If something goes wrong, no one will recognize anyone.

However, Zhao Sheng speculated that the master of the market must know the identity of the adults in each small business.

He took Xiao Lizi’s token, but he was invited here to clear the goods. I’m afraid he is the agent of Mr. Xiaofang?

As for who this Master Xiaofang is, it goes without saying that he must be Xiao Lizi’s boss He Chengming.

He Chengming has been demoted since October 20 last year and was demoted to the eunuch of the Huanyi Bureau for half a year.

Therefore, I haven’t bothered to deal with the small business affairs until now.

And because Fangshi acted in a secretive manner, no one knew who the master of this small place was, so when Zhao Sheng came with Xiaolizi’s token, he was mistakenly identified and brought over.

"In the past few months, everyone has shipped goods, but this one has not. I am afraid that if it is delayed for a long time, the superiors will be unhappy."

The man spread out the paper in his hand and showed it to Zhao Sheng, and said: "Please choose the position for unloading the goods. It is best to unload the goods."

To be on the safe side, Xiao Lizi would choose a location in advance every time he unloaded the goods so that others would not notice.

Zhao Sheng originally wanted to fool him casually and said he would just do it as before.

But he took a casual look and suddenly noticed one of the locations.

The locations are all outside the palace, but this location is special. It is only one street away from Zaoyi Lane, but opposite to the north and south.

Zhao Sheng suddenly had an idea in his mind, so he pointed to that place and said, "It would be good just here."

"Know."

The man circled the location, raised his head and asked, "Do you know how to contact Lifu, the unloader? This is a big matter, and we need to be careful."

Zhao Sheng straightened his back.
