After Emptying the Enemy’s Warehouse, He Carried Supplies To Survive the Disaster Years

Chapter 21 The Noisy Pier

Zi Yu, who hangs from front to back like a kangaroo, is crowded in a group of men who exude various smells. It is found that there are very few people like her who work alone.

　　Most of them are in groups of three or five, or there are more people with servants or thugs. As for those who come here with children on their backs, they are rare.

Occasionally there are one or two single vendors, and they are also tall and strong men who stand up to both of them, and they look shrewd and not easy to mess with.

Outskirts of the crowd, carriages were parked in the distance, and from time to time a face of a woman with exquisite makeup was revealed, and the coachman and the maid were whispering to each other.

When the mast of the ship was clearly visible, a burst of cheers erupted from the front. Ziyu, who was caught in the crowd, stood on tiptoe and could only see the dark back of her head in front of her.

 “Brother, brother, there are so many big ships!”

 A group of small buyers behind him were nodding their heads rapidly, because they also wanted that kind of treatment, even if they paid ten times the commission, it was worth it.

 But Ziyu, who has a lot of money, doesn’t mind!

Seeing that most of the people didn't move, Ziyu wanted to wait a little longer to see the excitement, but she didn't expect the rough man's words to remind her.

How could the rugged man not see Ziyu's expression? He couldn't help but feel that this little guy was really interesting. Most single vendors would most likely take the initiative to make friends with him when they saw such a big guy.

　　When the excited crowd moved out of the way, the rough man kindly picked up the purple jade and took the person to the edge.

The man carrying the basket did not stop in the middle of the road, but entered the centralized trading center not far away. There were special stalls there, and of course the cost was indispensable.

“Little brother, help me, I’ll help you carry the goods first.

After you finish picking things, take a little time to help me negotiate a deal, and I will pay you twice the commission. "The rugged man said quietly to himself.

 “Uncle, thank you!” Ziyu, whose face alternated between red and black, said to the rugged man.

Seeing a group of people carrying baskets coming over, Ziyu didn't have time to say anything to them, so she was gearing up for a big fight.

The buyers who were watching suddenly surrounded Ziyu in the center, all wanting to learn a few tricks from her.

 There are no high-quality pearls or gemstones, which is far from what Ziyu expected.

Ziyu glanced at the big man, took out a cloth bag from the bucket bag in front of her and shook it. A bag as big as one person appeared in front of everyone.

 In his small world, the boat was the biggest thing he had ever seen.

The half-bag of gems laid out by one person was quite rich in color, but the largest one was as big as a pea and the smallest one was only as big as a mung bean. At first glance, they looked like the kind of worthless local scraps.

Speaking a fluent London accent, the small traders were respectful, because only the royal family of their court could have this accent.

 “Hahaha, it’s easy, little brother, don’t worry!”

The small traders who have many ideas do not dare to shout high prices, and the prices quoted are even more unbelievably low.

The rugged man stretched out his thick left arm to protect Ziyu behind him. He was really afraid that the two little people in front of him would be squashed under his nose.

 Ziyu quickly looked around at all the bags on display and found that most of the products on display were mainly spices and seeds.

He was so impressed by Ziyu that he almost knelt down on the spot. His dignity didn't **** matter.

 This kind of pearls and gems can definitely be sold at a good price after processing, and she just happens to have gold and silver readily available.

 With their thin bodies, it was a miracle how the two of them managed to squeeze in between.

It is true that there are smart people in every dynasty. I don’t know why people in later generations think that the ancients are dull. I don’t know where the confidence comes from.

 In ancient times, unlike later generations, there was sufficient supply of goods for people to shop around.

Ziyu grabbed a handful of sleeves and prepared for a big shopping spree, but the rough man still understood.

Vendors like us can only get goods from those adventurers. As long as we act quickly, we can still get a lot of good goods. "Seeing Ziyu still standing there, the rugged man reminded him kindly.

 “Wow~, why is it so cheap!”

Everyone’s mouths are twitching to the sky. How much do you want to buy, little brother? Can you leave some residue for them?

Especially some small traders who are alone will be important targets for robbery.

“Hurry up and take a look!

 In the future, the goods will be the own goods of some large merchants and will not be sold to outsiders at the dock.

 When bargaining, number cards come in handy.

 The trading place on the dock has strict management, which is the reason why it has been prosperous for a long time. If they only compete for immediate interests, who will come all the way to trade here.

 Opening a jewelry processing workshop is also a good choice. Ziyu, who had the idea, stepped forward to bargain with others.

Being able to buy good and cheap goods is your real skill!

Ziyu bared her teeth at this person's shamelessness and turned her head away, ignoring him. Who doesn't know how to pretend to be stupid?

Ziyu didn't know that the anxious hawker had already begun to think about her background, wondering whether she might be a descendant of the royal family who was living abroad.

 “Howmuchisacattyofpearls.（How much does a pound of pearls cost?）”

The vendors present were careful not to buy pearls or gems, because most of them had limited funds and would not waste it on these low-profit items.

The rugged man was already shocked by Ziyu's strange accent, but he didn't expect that what would shock him even more was what came next.

There are also people who specialize in translation at Ziyu Meeting. Their fees are based on the transaction amount, which looks very generous.

“Two taels of silver. (One tael of silver)”

 But he didn’t remind him again, preparing to watch the joke later.

In the dark crowd, Xiao Luo, who was not afraid at all, opened his hands on his back and gestured, happily sharing what he saw with his brother.

Ziyu was almost speechless. When had she been treated like a baby? It was really a great insult in life.

 The open bags are placed on a wide stone slab that is half a leg high. The owner behind the bag either squats or stands guarding it. There are people with yellow skin and black eyes, white skin with blue eyes, blond hair, brown skin with green eyes and red hair. Most people hold a few number cards in their hands because of the language barrier.

Although there is nothing going on at the pier for the time being, it is because there are many people and mixed views. Once the transaction is completed and we leave Shangdu Mansion, there will be a lot of storms along the way.

If they can bring the descendants of the royal family back to the royal court, their rise to prosperity will be just around the corner, because the royal family has no real heir to the throne yet.

 Two people put out pearls. Although there was a small half bag, most of them were about the size of a finger. If you looked closely, there were still some flaws.

 “Thank you, uncle, for reminding us, let’s go together!”

A rugged man who stood out from the crowd, took one look at the little boy who only came to his nest, and he was carrying a baby on his back when he went out to earn a living.

 …

 Not for anything else but for safety.

Ziyu dragged the oversized bag and unceremoniously took the pearls and gems for herself at a very low price.

With less than twenty taels of silver, he received three and a half bags. Ziyu felt like he was picking up goods.
