I have a supermarket system, shocking the whole court
Chapter 177 Meeting Hong Shang again
The person in front of him excitedly made a flying bee gesture towards Ning Ning.
"Miss Chuchu, have you forgotten me? I'm Zhou Jun, the merchant from Xizhou, the one who helped you sell the butterfly hairpins!"
"!" Ning Ning's eyes suddenly widened. Hey, it seems to be the case.
At the beginning, she wholesaled a pair of hairpins from the mall, asked someone to sell one, and gave the other to Shang Wenqi.
By the way, she and the peddler went their separate ways, and she completely forgot about this matter after going to Beijing. She never thought that she would meet him again, and looking at him like this, could he have sold the hairpin?
Zhou Jun grinned happily: "Do you remember me? Zhou Jun, I am Zhou Jun."
"Ah... Zhou Jun!" Ning Ning called out his name: "My partner."
"You finally remembered me. When we parted in Qinzhou that day, I thought we would see each other soon, but it has been several months. To be honest, the butterfly hairpin was sold the day after I parted with Miss Chuchu. It was sold for ten taels of gold!
I carried the huge treasure with me and wanted to find the girl, but unfortunately I couldn't find any trace of her. When I asked others, they said that you had gone to Beijing with the dance troupe.
The journey to Beijing is long, and I have urgent business to return to my hometown, so I have no choice but to keep the ten taels of gold for the young lady temporarily. Now that I finally see the young lady, I will take the ten taels of gold for her right now. "
Zhou Jun told the story of his selling hairpins in a rapid succession.
Ning Ning never expected that a plastic butterfly hairpin would be sold for ten taels of gold. It was really a bit outrageous.
Although I am not short of gold now, who would complain about having too little money?
At this time, Xiao Meng also understood that this was someone he knew.
He finally let go of the hand that was holding Zhou Jun back.
Ning Ning was not in a hurry to get the ten taels of gold. Compared to this, Zhou Jun must be more aware of the situation here, so she simply asked Zhou Jun to go to the teahouse for tea together.
Zhou Jun naturally agreed.
A group of people came to the teahouse in a mighty procession. Along the way, Zhou Jun was greeting passers-by, which showed that he was very popular here.
"Sure, I didn't expect you to be the local boss here."
Zhou Jun chuckled when he heard this, and he touched his head awkwardly: "Thank you, thank you. I just want to make a living, and the neighbors also give me face and take care of me."
"So you only do business? Do you have any tips on buying and selling houses?"
"Miss Chuchu wants to buy a house?"
"My friend wants to buy it." Ning Ning said, pointing at Si Yang and Chu Yun.
Zhou Jun quickly spoke up, "Ms. Chuchu's friends are my friends. You two came by chance. I actually know a few people who want to sell their houses. They are all my friends. They want to move to Xizhou and are worried about how to sell their houses. We have shops and houses. Let's see what you want."
As mentioned before, traveling merchants travel to various places, and in order to facilitate replenishment, they will set up small courtyards or shops in some cities as transit stations.
However, these transfer stations are not fixed. As their routes change or the commercial centers move, the transfer stations will also move accordingly.
Therefore, houses were often circulated among traveling merchants.
Compared to searching everywhere for a house, it is undoubtedly much easier to find someone who has a house available.
Si Yang and Chu Yun were overjoyed. They obviously didn't expect buying a house to be so smooth.
They ate something together and chatted for a while, then Zhou Jun took them to see the house.
Si Yang and Chu Yun have been living in misery since they retired from the underworld. They want to find a place to settle down as soon as possible more than anyone else.
And now, I have finally found it.
The two finally chose a small courtyard by the river, which was not far from the market, had a good surrounding environment, and was very convenient to get in and out.
Even Ning Ning thought that this courtyard was great, and it could not be compared with the gardens of later generations.
After all, although the gardens of later generations are very beautiful, the surrounding areas have long been developed into big cities, and it is basically impossible to see a vast expanse of greenery like this.
The homeowner also introduced it with great satisfaction: "This yard is very new. We have hardly lived in it. Taking it over is basically the same as moving into a new house."
"Why don't you live here anymore?" Ning Ning wondered.
"The war in the Western Regions has stopped, and we are preparing to move back." The landlord smiled and said, "Since you are Zhou Jun's friends, I can give you a cheaper price. 500 taels of silver will be enough. The title deed and everything are still there. We just need to go to the government office to modify the documents and it will be considered a change of ownership."
Ning Ning suddenly remembered that there was a war going on in the Western Regions with the Qiang and Hu.
Isn't it because of this that the Western Region Dance Troupe fled to Daliang to avoid disaster?
I didn't expect that they had stopped the fighting so quickly.
It is said that since ancient times, the Qiang and Hu barbarians have often invaded the Central Plains. The back of Wuji Mountain is the territory of the Qiang and Hu. I wonder if they will turn around and harass Daliang after fighting with the Western Regions.
If she came to Daliang, wouldn't her Minzhou be in danger?
After all, the Qiang and Hu people are on the other side of the Wuji Mountains.
Everyone couldn't help but laugh after hearing Ning Ning's question: "Don't worry, this Wuji Mountain is a natural barrier. It is like a natural moat that cuts across the middle of Qiang Hu and Daliang. It is tens of thousands of miles high and extremely dangerous. If they want to cross Wuji Mountain, they will have to lose at least two-thirds of their troops.
In short, climbing over Wuji Mountain is the dumbest way. No one has ever been heard of climbing over it since ancient times."
Ning Ning raised her eyebrows, feeling that Wuji Mountain was like the Himalayas. But that was also good, at least she didn't want to experience war for the time being.
"Speaking of the Qiang and Hu, most of the places they invaded Daliang were in the Bazhou area. There was no Wuji Mountain blocking that area, so it was easier to attack. But even if they invaded Bazhou, they would directly sweep across the fertile land south of the Yangtze River from Bazhou, and would not take a detour to Minzhou."
Although Minzhou has gold mines, they can't compare with the Western Regions. They look down on the gold in Daliang.
Ning Ning was originally listening to gossip, but as she listened she felt something subtle, but she was so caught up in the conversation that she didn't catch it immediately.
Soon it was time to pay the money, but Si Yang and Chu Yun were a little hesitant.
Ning Ning suddenly understood that this couple might have taken half their life savings with them when they retired from the business, but after all the twists and turns, it is likely that all their savings had long been robbed.
She said decisively: "I'll pay the money first."
"How about that?"
"We are really embarrassed to have received your kindness along the way." The couple felt a little ashamed.
"Don't say that. You gave me money to go to Beijing. Just consider it as a successful investment. Zhou Jun, can you deduct money from the ten taels of gold?"
"Of course you can! I'll get it for the girl right now."
Zhou Jun didn't delay and ran out directly.
Si Yang and Chu Yun were about to refuse, but Liang Zhuangyan spoke up: "Just accept it. Even if Ning Ning doesn't ask, I will help you. You have to accept a favor from someone anyway, so make your choice."
