There are countless shops and restaurants, and even more brothels and restaurants. He has seen several brothels and restaurants along the way. There is also a smell of meat wafting from the restaurants. Thinking of what Wu Xiancheng said before, Sheng Changan couldn't help feeling a little nauseous.

I went to several restaurants in a row, but basically no one was allowed in. "Go away, go away, even beggars dare to walk in here."

Li Dashan was a little angry when he saw the waiter's arrogant look. Just when he was about to find someone to argue with, he was stopped by Sheng Changan, "Dashan, let's go to another place."

Even though they had tried their best to choose their own good clothes, compared to these people, they really looked like beggars. Sheng Changan's face darkened slightly. "We can't cause trouble. This is just the beginning."

She didn't believe that a city was full of rich people, unless they were separated. According to this layout, Sheng Changan's eyes lit up slightly and he walked straight forward. After about twenty minutes, he arrived at the place.

This place was completely different from what they had seen before. The people here were dead silent, and most of them were old people selling things. There were no children or women, and the clothes they wore were barely enough to cover their bodies. The streets were in a mess.

"Old man, how about I exchange these sweet potatoes for your firewood?" Sheng Changan walked to the corner and took out the sweet potatoes that had been prepared long ago from the basket.

The old man just looked at her and said, "One penny, and all the firewood is yours."

Sheng Changan's expression remained normal. "Dashan, take out the sweet potato from your arms."

Sheng Changan gently peeled the sweet potato, revealing the golden flesh inside. "This can fill your stomach." After saying that, she tore off a little and put it in her mouth, and handed the rest to her. "Look, this is edible, you try it."

The old man stared at the sweet potatoes in Sheng Changan's hand and asked, "How many do you want to exchange?"

Sheng Changan took out ten sweet potatoes about the size of two fists and said, "These will be exchanged for your firewood."

"Okay." The old man knew that he had indeed taken advantage of him, so he immediately put the sweet potato into his basket to cover it up. He then looked at the sweet potato in Sheng Changan's hand and swallowed his saliva. "This, what you told me before, is it true?"

Sheng Changan directly put the sweet potato in his hand. "Of course it's real."

The old man's eyes lit up as he gobbled the sweet potato, not even leaving the skin. He then looked up at the others and said, "You're not from here, are you? You better guard that wooden sign. If someone takes it away, you'll become a pig."

Sheng Changan's heart sank. It was indeed like this. "Do you know where the exiled people are?"

The old man's originally kind expression immediately changed to "I don't know, I don't know, don't ask me." As he said this, he put away the things in his hand and left.

Looking at the old man's receding figure, Sheng Changan came back to his senses. "Get the firewood, let's go set up the stall."

"Huh?" Setting up a stall? Li Dashan thought he had misheard. Seeing Sheng Chang'an not even turning back, he could only pick up the firewood on the ground, put on his backpack and chased after him.

After finally lighting the fire, Sheng Changan was ready to start without changing his expression.

"Sir, let me serve you." County Magistrate Wu took the sweet potato from Sheng Chang'an's hand.

Sheng Changan raised her eyebrows and said nothing more. It was indeed safer this way. As the fragrance of sweet potatoes gradually drifted away, it attracted many people, but none of them was the person she was waiting for.

"What's that smell? It's quite fragrant." A fat man stopped by the roadside. Even though he was curious, he did not cross the dividing line between the rich and poor areas.
