As the stall owner finished speaking, a cold wind blew, causing the people around him to wrap themselves tightly.

In such a bustling market, no one is interested in Lin Yi.

Seeing that Lin Yi didn't care at all, the stall owners nearby didn't want to pay any more attention to him and just focused on their own business.

After most of the day, Lin Yi's stall was still crowded with passers-by, but there were no buyers.

Xiaomei was sitting nearby, feeling uncomfortable because of the biting cold wind.

What also made her uncomfortable was the lack of business.

"Master, why don't you just forget it?"

She thought that she still had some money left with him by Mr. Hong, so she wouldn't starve to death in the short term. This loss was just a lesson.

"No hurry, wait a little longer, business always has to be done to the end."

Lin Yi still didn't care, but he looked at Xiaomei with some confusion, "Why are you so cold?"

"Master, I am feeling bad, but look at those stalls nearby, they are all visited by people!"

As Xiaomei spoke, tears were about to fall.

"Be patient in business, and you will eventually make money."

Lin Yi comforted her with a few words and continued to wait for the destined person.

"Brother, forget it."

"You guys definitely won't be able to sell it at this exorbitant price!"

The stall owners nearby laughed and said, "We are doing business, not trying to scam fools!"

As he spoke, another stall owner touched the cloth on Lin Yi's stall and burst into laughter.

"You really are here to trick fools!"

He smiled and explained to several stall owners nearby, "This is wool!"

As soon as these words were spoken, smiles appeared on everyone's faces.

Wool is worthless, and the cloth made from it costs one ounce of silver and one zhang?

The day was about to pass amid everyone's laughter.

……

At dusk, the sun sets in the west.

A woman dressed in luxurious silk strolled through the market.

With her petite and delicate figure, she often attracts the attention of passers-by when walking on the street.

Passing through various stalls shouting, she saw a stall that was completely deserted.

She looked carefully and saw that the stall owner looked like a scholar.

"How much do you want to sell this cloth?"

With curiosity, she walked over.

"One ounce of silver is worth one zhang."

Lin Yi answered slowly, looking as if he didn't care whether to buy it or not.

"The most expensive silk is only 180 coins a foot. Could it be that your cloth is made of gold?"

The girl asked curiously as she touched Lin Yi's cloth.

The feel is very strange, a little furry but not sticky.

"He's wool!"

"The most worthless thing is just to trick fools!"

The stall owner next to him was trying to dismantle the stall.

They don't want anyone to buy such worthless stuff!

I also don’t want to shatter the judgment in their minds that “I can’t sell a single horse”.

"It's expensive, of course there's a reason why it's expensive."

Lin Yi spoke slowly, pretending to be indifferent on his face, "I only sell this cloth to those who are destined to buy it."

"If there is a destiny, then I will naturally come to buy it."

Hearing this, the stall owner next to him could no longer sit still.

"It's just trash, why are you pretending to be a sorcerer?"

"That's right, you might as well learn from that blind guy over there and set up a fortune-telling stall!"

The stall owners' ridicule only made the girl more interested.

"So, do you think we are destined to be together?"

The girl looked joking and wanted to hear the answer from this "charlatan".

If you are happy, it is okay to buy one or two meters.

"Of course it's fate. So many people are so short-sighted that they avoid my stall."

"Only a beauty like you would have the discerning eye to come here."

Lin Yi immediately used all his life's praise skills and then recited a poem.

"Others laugh at me for being too crazy, I laugh at them for not seeing through me."

"Wool is turned into cloth and sold in the market, just hoping for a beautiful woman's smile."

The girl had read some poetry and books since she was young, so she could naturally tell the quality of poetry.

"Your wife is still around, and you're already trying to please another woman?"

She glanced at Xiaomei beside Lin Yi and mistakenly thought they were a couple.

"She is my maid. I am originally from a wealthy family, but now that I have fallen on hard times, I want to start a small business."

Lin Yi hurriedly explained.

This somewhat anxious look actually made the girl laugh.

She covered her mouth and smiled secretly, "Just because of your literary talent, I'll buy one first. But, can you make it cheaper?"

"There's no second price. This is already the cheapest."

"Don't forget, we are destined to be together."

Lin Yi waved his hand slightly.

"How about you try it first, miss?"

Xiaomei was very anxious. She couldn't let the duck she had already got fly away, right?

It’s getting dark now. It will be embarrassing if I really can’t sell it!

"Okay, let me take a look first."

The girl said this and picked up a piece of cloth and looked at it.

She originally thought that a ten-foot piece of cloth should have some weight, but she didn't expect that after delivering it, she would feel that the cloth was extremely light!

It feels as smooth as silk, but warmer than silk.

Just by holding it for a short while, the warmth was preserved between my hand and the cloth.

She had never seen such magical cloth in her life.

I opened the cloth and wrapped it around my body to try it out, and the biting cold wind seemed to be "kept out".

Immediately, she had an idea.

"It's getting dark, I'll buy one first."

Then the girl took out a tael of silver and handed it to Lin Yi, "Wait for me at the market entrance in an hour."

“Miss, we are all small businesses, and we still have to go back to light a fire and cook.”

After Lin Yi nodded slightly, Xiaomei disagreed, "If you want more, you should buy it now."

Seeing that the girl wanted to sell, she wanted her to buy more at one time.

"Um……"

The girl frowned slightly and began to think.

"Let's do this first. You guys come with me."

"I'll treat you to dinner!"

As he spoke, he took out a silver note and said, "This is a silver note for one hundred taels. Consider it my deposit."

When the stall owner nearby was about to close his stall, the "sharp" sound made them all stunned.

A single business deal costs only one hundred taels, and there are really people who get "cheated"?

They stared at the girl taking down a piece of cloth, and watched helplessly as a hundred taels of silver note was delivered to Lin Yi's hands!

However, Lin Yi did not mock them. Instead, he slowly asked the girl, "I have a total of twenty pieces of cloth, each measuring twenty zhang. Even if it's a deposit, ten taels will be enough."

Although he said so, he honestly put the money into his pocket.

"Why are you talking so much nonsense? You two, follow me!"

The girl's face became more playful, "Take everything with you."

At this time, Lin Yi and Xiaomei didn't know what the girl wanted to do, and they didn't even understand her identity.

However, when they arrived at the girl's door, everything became clear.

Prince Qing’s Mansion!

When Dayong was attacked by foreign enemies, Prince Qing, regardless of his royal status, personally led his troops to fight the enemy. Afterwards, although this place nominally belonged to Dayong, it had already become half of Prince Qing's fiefdom.

"Let me be frank. These cloths of yours are very warm and interesting."

“I’d like to order a large quantity.”

The girl slowly said, "However, this matter still needs my father's approval."
