I have a supermarket system, shocking the whole court

These days, whenever there is a market or a big event such as a temple fair, a lantern festival, or even a performance by an opera troupe, ordinary people will carry their own goods to trade.

If you are lucky, you can exchange it for some money. If you are not so lucky, you can barter for the things you need.

In short, everyone followed the news.

"Looks like we have to go too." The merchants looked at each other and saw the business opportunity.

"What business are you in?"

"We came from the south to sell silk flower jewelry and stuff."

Merchants are divided into traveling merchants and fixed merchants. Traveling merchants are those who travel around with their goods to do business, while fixed merchants have fixed shops and do not need to travel around.

Among them, Dingshang is the highest grade, after all, there is no need to wander around the world.

Itinerant merchants are the lowest class. They have to wander around, the things they sell are not too expensive, and they don’t earn much. The danger is also great after all, all kinds of banditry are hard to predict. But from another perspective, the advantage is freedom, and they can appreciate different scenery and experience different folk customs.

Generally, traveling merchants would travel in groups and make an appointment to go wherever there was a market.

There is no other way. There are so many thieves and bandits these days, and it is unsafe without companions.

These merchants came down from Kyoto. Originally, they were planning to go to Qinzhou, but now that they heard that there was an event in Xingyuan Prefecture, they thought it would not be a bad idea to take a detour through Xingyuan Prefecture first.

The villagers were overjoyed: "Okay, okay, let's go together."

"You don't know that villagers were killed near the mass graves in Qinzhou City the day before yesterday. Oh, this road is not safe. It's better for you not to go to Qinzhou for the time being."

The merchants were stunned: "What's going on?"

"Oh, that's a long story."

The common people spoke in low voices about the major events that had taken place in Qinzhou City in the past two days.

It was probably that a funeral team came out at night to dig a grave to bury a child, but they did not return all night. The next day, their family members went out to look for them, and found that only one of the ten people was alive, and the rest were all dead outside the city.

There was still a mark of Buyi Village next to the body, clearly telling the world who did it.

The merchants could not help but be shocked: "This Buyi Village is really too rampant."

"Speaking of which, the government won't intervene?"

"Well, Minzhou, Qinzhou, and Qizhou are all the territories of Buyi Village. Even the government is afraid of them and can't do anything about them. How can we control them?"

"So the man who escaped was very lucky."

"What? He didn't leave the city at all. He fainted at the charity cemetery."

"What's going on?"

"Who knows? Maybe his ancestors blessed him and knew that if he went out that night, he would never come back, so they didn't let him leave the charity cemetery."

"Okay, stop talking about this, or you'll get into trouble."

Everyone stopped talking and the merchants looked at each other. Although no one said anything, they all decided to take a detour to Xingyuan Prefecture first due to tacit understanding.

At this time, everyone naturally turned their attention to the merchants' goods.

Ning Ning had always thought that ancient silk flowers were made by folding linen, gauze, silk, etc., but when she saw the real thing, she found that these silk flowers were quite beautiful. They looked like real flowers from a distance, and even when she looked at them up close, she found them interesting.

Moreover, the prices of silk flowers vary depending on their shape and material. The cheapest one is three cents, and the most expensive one is fifteen cents.

"These are all new styles from the capital. They are not available here."

The merchants smiled as they introduced the treasures they had found. Everyone watched with saliva in excitement, imagining how happy their wives would be if they got one. However, it was just imagination, after all, the cheapest one cost three cents, and ordinary people could not afford it.

Uncle Wang and his friends only looked but did not buy, but the merchant did not get angry. He continued to introduce the special features of the silk flowers to them with a smile.

At this moment, a servant from the table at the back of the teahouse came over and asked the merchant to deliver the silk flowers over as their lady wanted to see them.

The merchant was overjoyed and immediately sent over the most beautiful silk flowers. I don't know which official was traveling there, but he actually picked out more than a dozen silk flowers from the merchant, all of which were beautiful and exquisite.

After a while, the merchant was seen coming back happily holding two strings of money.

One string is equal to 100 coins, so that means 200 coins are earned at once.

Everyone couldn't help but look at them with envy.

The merchant smiled awkwardly: "It's all capital, it's all capital. Most of it hasn't been recovered yet, there's not much left."

Ning Ning couldn't help but ponder. These silk flowers were beautiful, but after all, they were common to the ancients. If she went to the small shopping mall in Yiwu to get some hairpins and headwear, would there be any business opportunities?

There should be someone who can appreciate those sparkling aluminum butterflies and crystal bead hairpins that cost only a few cents each, right?

[Host, good idea, you can wholesale in the system, earn money to exchange for gold, and connect to the galaxy port, it is no longer a dream! ]

Ning Ning: "..."

She was staring at the silk flowers, which naturally caught the attention of other merchants.

They mistakenly thought that Ning Ning was also interested in the silk flowers, and excitedly sent them over here.

Ning Ning originally wanted to refuse. After all, she was short of money and no one could take a penny from her.

Unexpectedly, Shang Wenqi took out 10 cents and gave two flowers to Ning Ning.

The merchants were overjoyed and became much more enthusiastic towards the two men.

"Where are you going, young lady and young master?"

When the two men bought a car from a farmer, they also bought two sets of farmer's clothes. However, they had outstanding temperament and charm, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell that they were definitely not ordinary farmers.

Just now it was inconvenient to strike up a conversation due to the unfamiliarity, but now that there was an opportunity to buy silk flowers, the merchant finally found an opportunity to chat.

Shang Wenqi rarely spoke: "We are also going to Xingyuan Prefecture."

"In that case, we are fellow travelers. How about we travel together? Then we can have some company."

The merchants happily made appointments with each other.

After all, the journey takes five days, so the more people the better.

"Okay." Shang Wenqi nodded.

Ning Ning glanced at Shang Wenqi lightly, thinking that he was a cold person, but she didn't expect that he could communicate normally with others.

Although his attitude was not very warm, it was not as cold as towards her.

"What are you looking at?"

After the merchants left, Shang Wenqi looked at Ning Ning indifferently.

Ning Ning curled her lips, thinking that this man might really be misogynistic, otherwise why would he be so cold to her.

But there was nothing he could do even if he hated himself, because they were now bound together.

So, Ning Ning shyly picked up the two silk flowers and thanked him: "This is the first time I have received a gift, thank you."

"Don't think too much. This is just a stone for asking for directions and a brick for knocking on the door." Shang Wenqi didn't even frown.

What he meant was that he just wanted the merchants to invite them to travel together.

Ning Ning curled her lips: "No matter, just consider it as a gift from you, thank you."

As she said this, she casually pinned it on her head, not caring whether it matched her clothes or not. She couldn't see it anyway, so even if it was ugly, it wouldn't be ugly to her.
