When Zhao Hai heard what He San said, he couldn't help but smile slightly and said: "Forget it, I can't blame you for this matter. Not many people know about this matter, and I don't mean to blame you. Let's do it, He San , you go to the city to find a better restaurant and book a table of food and wine there. By the way, does that restaurant have private rooms? If there are private rooms, book a private room. Remember, the food and wine must be good. Yes, how much does this cost?”

He San immediately said: "Five silver coins are enough." He often does such things in this city, so he knows very clearly about this matter, so he naturally came up with it, and he became more and more grateful to Zhao Hai. , Zhao Hai not only did not blame him for this incident, but still trusted him so much, he was really grateful.

Zhao Hai nodded and then said: "Okay, then go ahead and do it. After you finish it, come to me at Mufeng Inn." After saying that, Zhao Hai took out six silver coins and gave them to He San. Three said: "I will reward you with the extra silver coins. Go ahead. You should have known Mr. Qian before. You should also know what he likes. You should be better prepared. With people like him, we will not be able to work with him." He has established a good relationship, which can only do us good and no harm."

He San took the silver coins and said in a deep voice: "This Master Qian is an old scribe in the city, and his family has been scribes in the city for generations. There are many people in the city. We helpers , some filial piety will be given to him almost every month, and we will treat him to a meal from time to time, so that it will be so convenient for us to do anything in the yamen. This Mr. Qian’s energy in the city It's still a big deal. Many of the catchers and chiefs in the capture shop have to give him face. Even with the county guard, he can still say a few words. It is naturally best to have a good relationship with him. .”

Zhao Hai nodded, and then said: "Who else is there in his family? Do they have any hobbies or urgent needs?" Zhao Hai knew very well that people like Master Qian had better be Don't offend him. It's best to have a good relationship with him. This will be very convenient for his future actions. It can be said that people like Mr. Qian are like those local snakes in the city. They have many connections. , there is no harm in making friends with him.

He San thought for a while, then said in a deep voice: "Master Qian's family only has one wife, but there are two young masters. The eldest young master has entered the yamen and has become a scribe. I heard that he is doing quite well. The second young master is the most loved by Mr. Qian, but he is also a figure. I heard that he is practicing martial arts with a general in the Blackwood Army and is now a third-rate martial artist. By the way, I heard that this Qian Some time ago, I was looking for high-quality weapon-refining materials for his second son to refine a high-quality long sword. I don’t know if he found it, but Master Qian is very fond of it. He also likes wine and gold coins very much, but other than that, I haven’t heard of him having any hobbies.”

When Zhao Hai heard what He San said, he also nodded and said: "Okay, then you go ahead. Remember, after making arrangements, come to the Mufeng Inn to find me." He San responded, and then rushed towards Zhao Hai saluted, then turned and left, while Zhao Hai was walking alone on the street. After arriving in this city, he had not taken a good look around, so naturally he wanted to take a good look now.

There are many shops on the main street of the city. Some of these shops are restaurants, some are inns, and some sell groceries. There are all kinds of businesses, but there are no stalls. Zhao Hai After looking around, he walked directly into a grocery store. There were two people in the store, a middle-aged man, sitting behind the counter calculating accounts, and a clerk sorting out the goods in the store.

As soon as he saw someone coming, the waiter immediately came up to him, saluted Zhao Hai and said, "What do you need, sir? The store has a complete range of goods. Just ask, sir." While talking about the relationship, he looked at Zhao Hai, Zhao Hai took a look and found that this grocery store was similar to the grocery stores he had seen before, there was nothing special about it.

Zhao Hai didn't look any further, and just said: "I'm going to give someone a gift today, but there's nothing to put it in. Do you have a box here? This box should be at least five feet long, and it doesn't need to be too wide, half a foot." Just as wide as the left and right." What Zhao Hai wants to buy is actually a sword box, but in a place like this, it can only be called a box.

When the clerk heard what Zhao Hai said, he was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately said: "Yes, sir, don't worry, our store has the box you want. What you said should be a sword box for holding swords. I am Just bring it to the guest officer." After saying that, he walked directly to a counter, then picked up a ladder, climbed to the counter, and took down a box. This box was really long, five feet long. It was large, but it was not very wide. After the boy took the box down, Zhao Hai saw that the outside of the box was also carved with patterns, which looked very beautiful.

The guy also brought the box. There was also a piece of white cloth in the box. There were two strings on the upper and lower sides of the box, which seemed to be used to fix the sword in the box. , this is a sword box used to hold swords. Zhao Hai really didn't expect that there was actually a sword box in this grocery store.

He looked at it carefully and found that the materials used in this sword box were pretty good. Although it was top-notch, it was still a good thing, so he nodded and said, "Yes, I want this box. How much does it cost?" The workmanship of this box is really good. It seems that the person who made it put some thought into it.

The guy immediately said: "Only one silver coin." It seemed that the guy was also very good at doing business. He said it only cost one silver coin, which made it sound like it was very cheap, but in fact it was not necessarily the case. The price of one silver coin, here It's definitely not cheap. Although Zhao Hai knew that five copper coins could buy a steamed bun, he thought that the purchasing power of money here was almost the same as on earth, but in fact it was far from it. In this world, steamed buns, but It is a relatively high-end food. Ordinary people cannot afford to eat a few steamed buns all year round. What they usually eat are multigrain pancakes. This kind of pancake is much cheaper than steamed buns. In fact, it costs only five copper coins. , you can afford about twenty kilograms of miscellaneous grains here. From this, you can infer how valuable this steamed bun is.

Therefore, the price of this silver coin is definitely not cheap, it can even be said to be very expensive. However, Zhao Hai didn't care and casually threw a silver coin to the guy, took the box and left directly. After sending Zhao Hai to the door, he returned to the store and handed the silver coins to the shopkeeper.

Zhao Hai took the sword box and walked forward slowly. When passing by an alley, he suddenly found that there were many small stalls in the alley, and most of the people setting up stalls were warriors. There were also some warriors wandering there, which made Zhao Hai stunned for a moment. Then he immediately understood that this should be a small market specifically for warriors to trade, and he should go and see it.

When he thought of this, Zhao Hai glanced around, then found a place where there was no one, put the sword box in his own space, then walked to the market empty-handed, and entered the market directly. , as soon as we entered the market, we saw that the warriors' stalls contained everything, including materials for all kinds of strange beasts, even swords and other things, and some strange things. , I don’t even know what it is used for.

Zhao Hai took a look at the stalls and found that many of them were fake and of no great use, so he walked forward all the way. After a while, he stopped and his eyes fell on a stall. Go up, there are a lot of things on that stall, but they all look a bit old. There are a few swords, which look dull, but Zhao Hai knows that the quality of those swords is still good, and they should be antiques. , in addition to swords, there are also some accessories, from hairpins to necklaces, all in Bu Yao, but Zhao Hai's eyes fell on a blood jade bell in the stall.

This blood jade bell is not very big, only the size of a walnut. It looks small and refined. The shape of the bell looks like a flower that is about to bloom. It is very beautiful, but when placed among other accessories, But it's not very conspicuous, because the bell is really ordinary, with no decoration except for its decent appearance.

The stall owner is an old man with gray hair, wearing a warrior uniform. He is sitting there with his eyes half closed, as if he is not very concerned about the things on the stall. Zhao Hai glanced at the things on his stall. , and found that they were all antiques, and he didn’t know where he got them from. Most likely, he had stolen an ancient tomb. Although he didn’t know where the ancient tomb came from, Zhao Hai didn’t say anything, but picked up the He picked up the bell and looked at it, then said to the old man: "Old man, how can I sell this bell?" When Zhao Hai picked up the bell, he was already sure that his previous guess was correct, this bell was indeed a nice one.

Zhao Hai noticed this bell when he passed by this stall before. This bell is made of blood jade, which is a type of yin jade with strong yin energy. This yin energy is not a good thing for warriors. But for ghosts, this Yin Qi is the best thing. This Yin Qi can nourish their souls and make them stronger, so Zhao Hai is planning to buy this bell and give it to the ghosts he is ready to surrender. A home.

When the old man heard Zhao Hai's voice, he opened his eyes, then glanced at the bell in Zhao Hai's hand, and then said: "One gold coin." Then he stopped talking, as if he had no idea whether it could be done. He didn't really care about business. This made Zhao Hai smile slightly. Then he took out a gold coin, flicked it to the old man, took the bell and left.

The old man stretched out his hand to catch the gold coin that Zhao Hai bounced over, glanced at Zhao Hai again, and then murmured: "It was actually sold. It seems that the price was still low." After that, he sighed softly. With a tone of voice, he immediately put away the gold coin, and then rested there with half-closed eyes, as if he was indifferent to the things around him.
