Chapter 184
"Brother Lin, is Tianshui City ahead?"

Lu Changfeng was dressed in a sapphire blue brocade robe, which was particularly eye-catching on the dusty land of Yongzhou, but behind him was a group of heavily armed soldiers, so no one dared to think about this young master, they just watched from afar, envious and jealous muttered a few words.

Lin Chen stopped his horse, looked around, and looked at Lu Changfeng, "It should be here. The roads in Yongzhou are rarely as smooth as Tianshui. You see, there are no two dirt bumps in this area for more than ten miles, and it is boundless. It should be Tianshui gone."

Lu Changfeng looked excited, "That's great Brother Lin, we're finally here."

It is only a hundred miles from Tianshui to Jincheng, and it can be reached in one day at a fast pace. However, Lu Changfeng and Lin Chen were not familiar with the road conditions when they set off, so they made some detours.

"If Ding Yi knows that we are only here now, I'm afraid he will laugh at me for a whole year."

Lin Chen laughed at himself.

"Brother Lin, didn't my elder sister say that you may encounter any situation when you go out. We finally arrived in Tianshui today. I thought we were going to sleep in the wilderness!"

Lu Changfeng can think about it here.

Lin Chen smiled wryly, "Okay, let's go to the city and settle down quickly, please!"

"Alright Brother Lin!"

Lu Changfeng's clear voice was mixed with excitement.

This was the first thing he did independently since he was a child. Lu Changfeng became independent, starting from Tianshui City in front of him.

Wangshan horse racing, Lin Chen and Lu Changfeng rode fast for about a quarter of an hour, and finally entered Tianshui City before closing the city gate.

"Brother Lin, this place seems to be bigger than Jincheng."

Lu Changfeng led his horse along the streets of Tianshui.

Lin Chen followed Lu Changfeng, "Jincheng is a state capital that was established because of the dangerous terrain and the dangers that can be defended. Therefore, it is only a small city according to local conditions, but Jincheng is small but solid as gold. This is not the case in Tianshui, which is close to Zhili Hanzhong. , the land is vast and sparsely populated, but fortunately the land roads are smooth and waterways pass by, so the city of Tianshui was built to a certain scale."

Although Lin Chen has never been to Tianshui, he has seen the map and knows the advantages of the terrain.

"Let's stay overnight, rest early today, and tomorrow we will start a big fight!"

While talking to Lu Changfeng, Lin Chen walked towards the city on the main road that directly enters the city from the city gate.

In an ordinary city, the best inn is only on the main road.They are not short of money, so there is no need to find troublesome places for themselves.

After arriving at the largest Yuelai Inn in the city and opening a room, Lin Chen made arrangements for the soldiers who came with him, and then he and Chang Feng went back to their rooms to rest. They had to do business tomorrow.

...

"Brother Lin!"

Early in the morning, Lu Changfeng didn't need the housekeeper's father to come and urge him to wake up for school. He got up early by himself, washed up and went to Lin Chen's room next door to knock on the door.

The door opened, and it turned out that Lin Chen also got up early, "Come on, let's go downstairs to have breakfast. I hope your method will work here."

Lin Chen teased Lu Changfeng.

What he said was what Changfeng used. After arriving in a place, he searched for news at tea stalls and restaurants.The inn is also a place where merchants gather, and I believe they should gain something.

"Hey, have you heard? There seems to be a group of horse thieves in Hanzhong, who are elusive. Some time ago, the tea mountain in Hanzhong disappeared without anyone noticing it. It’s impossible to say that she disappeared for ten days and a half months without anyone knowing about it.”

Lu Changfeng and Lin Chen had just sat down in the hotel lobby when they heard the explosive news, and their ears froze instantly.

"When you say that, there is something vaguely wrong. In the past, Lao Cao would come back as a merchant in winter. This year, there is still no shadow in the twelfth lunar month. A few days ago, I said that Lao Cao was afraid that he would get rich, so I wasted time. , now hearing what you said, I’m afraid it’s more ominous than good!”

The two merchants spoke in a low voice, but it was quiet early in the morning, both on the street and in the lobby, so the voices of the two of them reached the ears of everyone in the lobby, and those who had doubts echoed it.

"I just said that this year's year is not right, and I can't tell why it's strange. After hearing what you said, it turns out that there are fewer familiar faces in Tianshui this year. If I say that, I'm afraid it's not a good omen!"

"That's right, the jujube tree in my backyard suddenly turned green a few days ago. I thought it was a good thing, but it turned out to be a bad omen."

"Hey, I'm flustered when I hear that, don't say it, don't say it, it's the end of the year, what's better if we stop? Anyway, I have decided that I won't go out before the Chinese New Year this year, and I will celebrate the New Year in Tianshui Let's go."

This person's words were echoed by several merchants, but some people sighed, "Hey, you guys are from Tianshui, at worst, go back to your hometown to avoid it, but we have to go back to Hanzhong."

"That's right, Lao Yang, you can't be unreasonable, let's get together, there are so many people, I don't believe that some horse thief will stop us with emotion!"

"That's right, Lao Cao, don't be timid, the New Year's Eve is the time to make money. Anyway, all the money I earn this year is spent on this batch of goods. I just wait for these days to go out of the city to Hanzhong to make money. No matter what you do, you have to go to Hanzhong with me, the more people we have, the better."

Lao Cao seemed to be hesitant, "I'm also pressing the goods, but I don't feel at ease here, buddy, can't we leave when a large number of people and horses are dispatched in the next year? By then, horse thieves will not dare to come out."

The man got excited, "Old Cao, you have to be more kind. What you buy is cloth and satin, and you can still sell them after the New Year. I am a dried fruit snack. If I don't sell it during the New Year, I will be dragged and bankrupt next year." .Besides, news of the horse thief has been heard every year. If we traders are afraid of this, then we should not go out."

"That's right, if you're rich and in danger, the big deal is that this year's goods will be out, and you'll quit after the new year, and go home to farm! Don't worry about this surprise or fear anymore."

Someone said it angrily, but no one agreed.

They are all old merchants for many years. To be honest, after a year of tossing, they all make money by dumping some goods at the end of the year.So although there is news of horse thieves every year, they are frightened every year, but they also break through every year.

Those who couldn't make it through all left their lives on the road of trading. The lucky ones at home kept a few money in the bottom of the box, but unfortunately, they had to raise money everywhere to pay back the loan.

Neighbors are jealous when they see their merchants earning money, but how many merchants were abandoned on the road in the wilderness, and they can't enter the ancestral graves even after they die?

The atmosphere in the inn lobby was depressed for a while, Lu Changfeng and Lin Chen looked at each other in blank dismay.When they came out this time, Madam gave them 50,000 taels of silver to make them toss about, and if they were not enough, remember the letter. How can I understand the helplessness of putting life and death in the lobby for a few taels of silver.

"Why are you talking so much? Why go after eating for a while, who can really put down the goods and go home?"

With a low voice, everyone stopped talking, and the atmosphere became more serious.

Lu Changfeng and Lin Chen silently ate breakfast and went back to the room to talk. In the atmosphere of the lobby, their compassion prevented them from discussing things like no one else was there.

"Let's still follow the plan. On the first day, we will find out all the places in Tianshui City, and then we will observe the towns around Tianshui City on the second and third days. By the way, we will release people and collect information. The soldiers I brought out this time, There are a few good scouts, no matter whether it is official or private, no news can escape their eyes, and when we find out the cultural terrain of Tianshui, we will meet back in the city and make plans."

Lin Chen brought out his and Lu Changfeng's plan earlier in the morning. Lu Changfeng listened, smiled, got up and prepared to go out with Brother Lin.

"Brother Cao, it's still up to you. Don't worry. I paid two taels of silver to hire a carriage this time. Let's go and return quickly without delay on the road. Let's start now. If everything goes well, we can arrive in Hanzhong early tomorrow morning. We have already found a buyer for the goods, and the day after tomorrow, we will ship the goods without using a carriage, and go directly on horseback. If all goes well, we can go back to our respective houses with the money in the evening of the day after tomorrow."

Lu Changfeng and Lin Chen didn't expect that when they left the room, they ran into the two merchants who were talking in the lobby just now. Seeing their hurried steps, they might be going on a long journey.

Although the businessman surnamed Cao was complimented by his companions full of good words, his face was not angry, but his face was heavy. Passing by the door of Lin Chen and Lu Changfeng's room, he saw two soldiers armed with swords, followed by a majestic soldier. Envious, but he knew that even with all his wealth, he couldn't afford a long sword. In other words, if he bought a sword, he would have no capital to start a business.
