The Ming Dynasty took an unconventional approach

Chapter 587 Too Popular
Cen Ermu watched them leave.

Soon, the entire land temple became quiet, with only the rustling sound of the wind blowing.

He raised his head and looked at the knife hanging on the beam, staring at it eagerly.

The knife swayed in the wind, but it did not fall, and the rope remained strong.

Cen Ermu had tears in his eyes and watched it almost desperately as it slowly stopped shaking.

Pan Yunfei returned to the Cen family.

Qu Le asked: "Just leave the person there and not care about him?"

Pan Jun: "I already have all the information I want, why would I care about him?"

She snorted, "Trying to rob me? I'm just catching a thief."

Qu Le thought so too. If Pan Jun was really a weak young lady, and Cen Ermu sneaked into her room like this, losing money would be a small matter, but she might even lose her life.

Cen Ermu deserved the fine.

"Now we have to think about whether we should take Cen Dachuan with us when we leave tomorrow." Pan Yun said, "From what Cen Ermu said, Cen Dachuan is quite a man of character."

"It's difficult to interrogate such a person. It won't be easy to interrogate him in a short time, and it will easily alert the people in the village." Pan Yun said: "If we want to interrogate him, we have to take him out."

Qu Le: "How come?"

Pan Yun touched his chin and said, "We'll see what happens tomorrow."

After saying that, she flew to the ground and gently pushed open the door.

In the room, Miao Zhen and Miao He were sitting on the bed, their legs swaying. When they saw her come back, they immediately stood up: "Little Master, what happened?"

"I just caught a mouse, nothing serious." Pan Yun closed the door and asked, "Is anyone from the Cen family up?"

"Miaohe and I have been listening attentively, but we didn't hear anything."

Pan Jun nodded and asked the two to lie down and sleep. She also lay down: "You need to practice your sensitivity later. You can't sleep too deeply when you are out."

Miaozhen Miaohe didn't even know when she went out. Hearing this, she said "Oh" in shame and agreed.

Cen A Shou's family didn't notice anything unusual, and neither did Cen Ermu's family.

Today is the big market day. People are setting up stalls and shopping at the market. The streets are soon bustling with people.

Cen Ermu had been in a bad mood since he came back from the sea. He slept until noon every day, so his room door was closed. The Cen family thought it was normal.

They took out the things that Cen Ermu had brought back, put them on the table and went to set up a stall on the street.

They all heard that a big customer had come to the village, and that ordinary villagers rarely bought the imported goods they had, so they could only sell them to outsiders.

They hope that their products will be picked by big customers.

Even Cen Dachuan quickly brought out a few boxes of goods with a few of his men and set them up in the best spot in the market.

After he finished arranging the items, he glanced around and frowned slightly: "Where's Ermu? Why didn't he come?"

"He must still be sleeping. That kid has been in a bad mood since he came back. Every day he either fights with his brothers or quarrels with his parents. Brother Dachuan, do you want to go to his house and call him?"

Cen Dachuan thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, let him sleep. He has a bad temper and coming here will only cause trouble."

Everyone instantly forgot about Cen Ermu.

Pan Jun and the others had just gotten up at this time.

The group washed up leisurely, had breakfast, and watched the bright sunshine. Qu Le persuaded them again and again, and Pan Jun finally went out reluctantly, holding a round fan.

The so-called big market is a market formed over time where villagers from several nearby villages come together to trade.

Since this is a big fair for the villagers, these imported goods are naturally not the main commodities.

At the fair, cloth, sugar, meat, rice, flour, oil and other daily necessities were the main items. Everyone was wearing gray coarse clothes, but Pan Yun and her friends were wearing bright dresses, which made them stand out in the crowd. Everyone turned their heads to look at them.

All five of them were used to being stared at, so they took it all in stride.

Qu Le introduced to Pan Yun as if no one was around: "Look, little aunt, there's a mushroom vendor there. This kind of mushroom is very fresh and sweet. When cooked with meat, it tastes like dragon meat. Shall we buy some?"

Pan Yun: "Have you ever eaten dragon meat?"

Qu Le: "...No, but that's what the country folks say."

Pan Jun snorted and said proudly, "I bought it!"

Qu Le responded immediately and asked Tao Yanbai to buy mushrooms. Then he took Pan Yun to a small stall and took out a small mirror: "Look, little aunt, this is a mirror imported from the sea. It is clearer than the best polished bronze mirror. The most important thing is that it is cheap. Stall owner, how much is this mirror?"

The stall owner was stunned to hear Qu Le selling him a mirror. He immediately said, "One hundred coins! This mirror only costs one hundred coins."

Seeing Pan Yun frown, he quickly pushed the mirror to her hand and said, "It's very cheap, much cheaper than the ones in the county town. The ones in the county town are three hundred coins."

Pan Yun: "The three hundred coins in the county are much more than this. Your..."

She shook her head in disgust: "Too small."

The stall owner gritted his teeth and said, "Ninety cents for you."

Pan Yun didn't say anything, so Qu Le immediately said, "Eighty cents, if you want to sell my aunt, take it."

The stall owner thought about it and nodded in agreement.

Pan Yun glanced at Miao Zhen.

Miaozhen pulled Tao Yanbai over, took out a string of money from the bag he was carrying, counted out twenty coins and gave the rest to him.

The stall owner counted them and became happy. He quickly took out a piece of woolen paper to wrap the mirror and recommended other things to Pan Yun: "Miss, please take a look at other things. I have a lot of imported goods on this stall."

Pan Jun looked down and finally picked out a gemstone necklace: "This gemstone is okay, but the necklace is too ugly. It should be made with a silver chain. Let's take the gemstone out and make a necklace ourselves."

Miao Zhen agreed and asked arrogantly, "How much is this chain?"

Stall owner: "Five taels!"

"Five taels, you are stealing money, two taels, if you want to sell it, just sell it."

After some bargaining, the deal was finally settled at three or eight cents.

Miaozhen counted out the money from her bag and gave it to him.

The gazes from all around became even more intense, and the eyes staring at Pan Jun were almost burning.

After watching the excitement, Cen Yuan immediately squeezed out of the crowd and ran back to Cen Dachuan, saying excitedly: "Brother Dachuan, that little girl is really rich. Brother Damu has already sold her for more than four hundred yuan."

Cen Dachuan's eyes lit up slightly, and he was also happy, but he still glared at Cen Yuan first: "Watch your mouth, when the distinguished guest comes, you have to call me Miss, and if I hear these messed up names again..."

"Yes, yes, I will definitely not shout."

Pan Yun bought things as she walked.

She doesn't just buy imported goods, she's also willing to pay for local items as long as she likes them.

Wooden hairpins, bamboo products, even medicinal herbs and wild vegetables, she would buy anything she was interested in.

Although the people around her would lower the price every time, they would only do so once or twice and they were very quick to pay.

In less than half an hour, Pan Yun became the most popular guy on the street.

Throughout the whole fair, everyone selling things at the stall, from the eighty-year-old old lady to the five-year-old child, would show their teeth first when they saw her, and those without teeth would show their gums.

After walking around for a while, Pan Yun finally came to Cen Dachuan's stall.
