Splendid little maid

Chapter 78 Burning Money
After Luozi was successfully sold, Chen Xi's apparent goods were emptied.

Only the sale of salt remained.

Zhang Hansan still had a lot of goods left, but he still looked happy and not in a hurry.

"Uncle, since the things are sold out, I want to go shopping around here and buy some things."

Chen Xi said in a low voice.

She had to hurry up and do this too.

Looking at the people coming and going, Zhang Hansan thought about it and said, "Okay, then you should be careful, don't be too conspicuous, and buy whatever you want to buy."

After all, he couldn't hold her by his side until he finished selling his stuff before going together.

This kid has his own mind.

Presumably can't wait.

Only then did Zhang Hansan allow it.

He was naturally responsible for bringing her here, so he defended her repeatedly.

You have to think about it too.

Seeing that he agreed, Chen Xi nodded and said, "Hey, okay, I'll be back as soon as I go."

Zhang Hansan nodded at her.

Although the ghost market will last until morning, it is obviously better for them not to linger for too long.

It's not safe after all.

Go back quickly.

Chen Xi got up and jumped into the crowd alone. There were already a lot of people at this time, and she was neither tall nor short, so she could easily blend into the crowd.

Under the unlit torch, the lights and shadows staggered, the figures were vague, chatting and laughing happily.

Chen Xi passed by many people, but no one paid much attention to her.

Just focus on yourself.

She originally thought that the ghost market would be eerie and weird, but she didn't expect that it would be more lively than the downtown area in the city, and it was full of people's voices, and everyone was used to talking about it.

It may be the price of the goods on the market today, or it may be a well-known merchant here.

Everyone wears masks.

Chen Xi didn't make a sound, she hid inside and quietly listened to the information. She didn't follow the crowd until she confirmed the direction of the area where edible salt was bought and sold.

It's not close to that side, and there are too many people, so the action is not as fast as imagined.

She planned to walk all the way to the area where the salt business was done.

The roads in the ghost city are all dirt roads, and they are probably worried about dust, so most of them are covered with cloth blankets.

It feels soft to step on.

Chen Xi walked steadily.

There are many shops on both sides.

Almost everything is on sale.

Common pots and pans, rouge powder, smuggled foreign goods, wild vegetables and fruits, handmade snacks, these can be sold even in the outside market.

Things are common, so it must be that the people who sell them are not simple. Most of them are not allowed to show their faces outside, so they come here to do business and make a living.

People like her.

And it is also convenient for people like them to have all the things here, at least they don't have to take the risk of going to the streets to buy those daily necessities, and they can live on here.

Chen Xi suddenly felt that this place was quite good.

It has nothing to do with anything, just doing business, the more you look at it, the more all-encompassing it feels.

It seems that the people in here are too.

Some people are dressed in gorgeous and rich clothes, and they wear beautiful and delicate masks, and there are also ordinary people who wear common clothes and ordinary masks, and even people in ragged clothes and rags covered their faces with leaves. In short, there is a feeling of tolerance for everything.

I don't know who came up with it.

Zhang Hansan said that this place is scary. Chen Xi was still confused when she saw it at first, but when she got closer and closer to the center, she found that there are indeed many "tolerant" here.

Sure enough, there were butchers selling meat beside the small street, standing outside the shack in frivolous clothes to entertain customers, waving and waving a pungent cheap incense handkerchief.

In the crowd, Chen Xi could clearly sense that the conversation of the people around him had changed.

Someone laughed and walked away quickly.

Some people teased each other with obscene smiles, why didn't the other party have a good time, and commented on the woman, saying that although the face could not see the figure, she was very good.

The words behind it became more and more difficult to hear.

Chen Xi felt nauseous for a while, and felt that he was about to vomit the overnight meal, so he couldn't help leaving at a faster speed. There were many people with her, and they all passed through this place quickly.

I thought it would be fine to leave, but then came across the area where slaves were traded.

There are those who sell people, and there are those who sell themselves. Whether they are sold or sold themselves, their faces are not covered. After all, slaves have no right to cover up, and faces are also capital.

Chen Xi followed the crowd and glanced sideways, some of them were just children.

There are also many buyers around.

The two parties did not speak, but gestured with their eyes, and bargained in the jargon of the industry. Outsiders were confused, but they could guarantee their own interests.

Chen Xi knows that there are industry slang words, but it is very strange to encounter them for the first time.

Look twice before leaving.

After all, she didn't want to buy or be sold.

It gets darker and darker.

Chen Xi could see gamecock sellers. She didn't like to know about this kind of thing, so she filtered it directly, not to mention there were people who sold themselves as sandbags.

From her point of view, this ghost market is still busy, and she might have strayed into a messier place.

Seeing this, Chen Xi started to walk in another direction, and finally got away from the messy place here, and returned to the stall area. There are some older things here, as well as some ancient books and weapons, which is finally normal.

The flow of people is relatively less, there are more rich people, and the atmosphere is quiet.

Sure enough, the circle and the circle are different.

When Chen Xi found the paper, the stall owner was very casual. He moved a recliner and fell asleep, so he wrote a sign asking how much for a piece of paper, and the paper was still sold by the piece.

But considering that it is not easy to make paper here, it is normal that it is more expensive.

Chen Xi took a closer look, and found that the cheapest paper cost ten cents a piece, and it was not too big, just the size of letter paper.

I guess it was used for writing letters.

Chen Xi felt that it was rough and thin, and it was estimated that this thing was really difficult to use, but there were two other prices, fifteen and twenty, which were not bad.

This is really burning money.
Chen Xi recalled that the piles of papers in the young master's study were simply insane.

The Huang family is indeed rich.

The young master needs to study.

After thinking about it, Chen Xi gritted his teeth and bought thirty fifteen sheets of medium paper.

After spending 450 Wen, the string of copper coins I just got disappeared with a crash.

Scholars at this time really burn money.

We must know that 450 Wen is enough for the farmers to spend for several months. How many catties of salt can this buy?Just thinking about it makes my tooth hurt.

Chen Xi thought of the status of the scholar here, and then thought that if the young master could succeed in the future, then she would get a little bit of credit, and at least he owed him such a big favor.

Still worth it.

Besides, she also needs to practice herself, and she has to get rid of the label of being illiterate. This thing will affect her future development, so she is willing to think about it.

The stall owner was quite casual, he didn't count the copper coins, threw them into the basket next to him, and then counted out the papers and wrapped them neatly for Chen Xi.

Chen Xi saw that the pannier felt useful, took the paper and turned around and bought a medium-sized pannier for [-] cents not far away, planning to purchase it later.
