Escape after crossing

"I gave you the bone as a gift. How are you going to take it away?"

Jiang Ziluo counted the money for the pork seller and handed it to him. "Put it aside for now, my family will be here soon."

"Okay, I'll put them all here for you." The pork shop owner put everything Jiang Ziluo bought aside.

Jiang Ziluo was waiting next to the pork stall. He looked around and saw that next to the pork stall were sellers of live chickens and ducks, as well as chicken and duck eggs.

The shop next to it had a sign that said game, but the door was closed. Jiang Ziluo was very curious.

"Boss, why is the shop selling game meat closed?"

The pork seller was very happy with this customer who bought so much meat at once.

So no matter what you ask, he will tell you everything he knows. "We'll close when we're sold out."

Jiang Ziluo was even more curious, "It's sold out so early? How many are there every day?"

"It's like this. He sells game and also buys game. He has fixed restaurants to deliver the game to. Sometimes he gets too much and sells it out quickly, and sometimes he only has enough to deliver to the restaurants."

"Boss, wouldn't people who hunt wild game deliver it to the restaurant themselves? Why are they sending it here?"

"Speaking of this, we have to talk about the people behind this store." The butcher looked around and continued in a low voice.

"The man behind this store is the county magistrate's brother-in-law. No one dares to offend him. But there is one thing: he won't lower the price.

No matter what you hunt or how much you hunt, he will give you a fair price.

Later, people who hunted wild game gradually sent it here, and no one bullied others by taking advantage of their power, so it is what it is now.”

Jiang Ziluo nodded to show that he understood. But Jiang Ziluo didn't agree with this approach in his heart. In this small county, there appeared a black and evil force with a protective umbrella.

But this is something that happens in every dynasty, and there are many more hateful things than this. This is not so bad, it’s just a market monopoly.

"Boss, do we have a lot of hunters here?"

"Our county is not small, and there are many people who hunt, but they are all small animals."

“Are there no mountains?”

"That's not the case. The biggest mountain in our county is the Black Mountain. But for so many years, no one has dared to enter the depths of the Black Mountain."

"Black Mountain? But the Black Mountain in Black Mountain Town?"

"Yes, that Black Mountain."

"Lolo." At this time Jiang Hongyu drove the ox cart over. Jiang Ziluo put the bought meat on the ox cart, greeted the butcher, and the two siblings left.

When they arrived at the cloth shop, Jiang Ziluo got off the ox cart and went into the shop to buy a piece of fine linen. Seeing this, Jiang Hongyu asked.

"Lolo, why did you buy such plain fabric?"

"Brother, don't you like it?" Jiang Ziluo looked at the cloth, then at the color of his clothes.

Jiang Hongyu didn't know that his sister bought it for him, so he smiled and said, "If you like it, I like it too."

Jiang Ziluo understood the meaning of the words and realized that he had not expressed himself clearly.

"Brother, I bought this piece of cloth for my mother to make clothes for you. Of course, you have to like it."

Jiang Hongyu hurriedly said, "No, no, the clothes you are wearing were made not long ago, there is no need to make them again."

"Big brother only has this one set of new clothes. The clothes I'm wearing were altered from Big Brother's new clothes, so naturally I have to make another set."

"Brother, you don't need so many clothes. The old clothes can still be worn after washing. Go change the color of this piece of cloth and bring it back so that mother can make clothes for you and your sister."

"No, I'm wearing big brother's new clothes, so big brother still has to make another one for me. Okay, listen to me, let's go home!"

Jiang Ziluo was talking to Jiang Hongyu without paying attention to the people around him. Maybe he thought that what they were talking about was not important, or he also felt that he had deliberately changed his clothes and makeup today, so he let down his guard.

But just this time of relaxation, all the special changes made today were in vain.

This morning, the Ninth Prince Leng Shixuan asked Bai Yi and Zhou Ming to go look for two people. Bai Yi did not find the person he was looking for, and seeing that it was almost noon, he prepared to go back to the inn to report to his master.

When he walked outside the cloth shop, he saw a medium-sized cart parked in front of the door. Bai Yi planned to bypass the cart and leave.

Unexpectedly, I heard a familiar voice, but when I turned around, it was a little boy. I thought I had heard it wrongly.

He shook his head and left. On the way back to the inn, Bai Yi kept thinking about the voice just now.

They were so similar that I couldn't figure out what was going on when I returned to the inn. So I told the Ninth Prince Leng Shixuan about it.

After hearing this, Leng Shixuan understood that they had remodeled the house. This made Leng Shixuan even more curious about this family.

"Bai Yi, do you still remember, besides Doctor Hu, what was the surname and name of that family?"

"The village chief's surname was Zheng, but I don't know his name. The family's surname seemed to be Jiang? The village chief didn't introduce the person at the time, but just called out his name. I can't remember for sure."

"Go to the government office now and check if there are any people with the surname Jiang or Hu among the refugees that have been sent here recently."

When Leng Shixuan talked about Hu and thought about what happened today, he had a bold idea in his mind.

Bai Yi received the order and left. Leng Shixuan, however, sat there in a trance. In his previous life, he met Ju Ziming in Bailing City.

He was not just guessing. Since he knew Yu Mo was rescued, some things had changed. And he knew best how many people around him had received treatment since he met Ju Ziming in his previous life.

Since Ju Ziming’s medical skills were so good in his previous life, the person who could save Yu Mo in that place in this life might be him.

Otherwise there wouldn't be so many coincidences. Yu Mo was injured, and the doctor surnamed Hu and his apprentice passed by that place. His apprentice was a girl. As for whether her name contained the character "Luo", we would know when Bai Yi came back.

Bai Yi did not let Leng Shixuan wait too long. After Bai Yi arrived at the government office and revealed his identity, he quickly found the refugee registration book because refugee registration was a recent matter.

There were eighty people assigned to Qingli County, so the search was quick. He returned to the inn and told Leng Shixuan the information he had found.
