Divorcing your wife might feel good for a moment, but seeing me make money will make you regret it f

The vendor looked up unhappily, wondering which fool dared to ruin his business.

Seeing Wu Yu's robust physique and the imposing presence that could kill a bull with a single punch.

He swallowed the rebuke that was on the tip of his tongue, but still said with some anger:

"Brother, you're really pushing the price too hard. This is the latest model cup from Great Britain."

Wu Yu said expressionlessly, "I'm from Wu Family Village."

Upon hearing this, the vendor's anger vanished, and he said, somewhat resentfully, "Fine, fine, deal!"

The vendor took out a wooden box, opened the lid, and found four compartments inside.

Soft straw was laid down, the glass cup was carefully placed inside, and finally the lid was put on.

"This wooden box of mine is worth half a tael of silver. I'm so unlucky to have run into you. I've really lost out today."

The vendor handed the wooden box to Ye Wushuang, muttering something under his breath.

Ye Wushuang suppressed the urge to roar to the sky, desperately trying to suppress the upturned corners of her mouth, and took the wooden box, handing over 6 taels of silver.

The group continued walking forward.

After moving some distance from the stall, Ye Wushuang could no longer contain herself and exclaimed excitedly:

"Brother Wu, you're amazing! You've bargained so well. They were originally 10 taels each, but you got four for 6 taels each."

How did you do that? Why did he stop talking after he heard you were from Wujia Village?

Xu Qing also cast a curious glance at him, pricking up her ears to wait for Wu Yu's answer.

Addressing his employer, a woman at that, Wu Yu softened his voice and explained:

"The people from Wujia Village were the ones who started these transactions, so we are very familiar with them."

This glass cup isn't of very high quality; it might fetch a higher price elsewhere.

But they're everywhere here, so they certainly wouldn't cost that much. He's just taking advantage of your lack of knowledge to scam you.

Ye Wushuang nodded repeatedly, and casually took out half a coin of silver from his pocket:

"Brother Wu, thank you. If it weren't for you, I would have spent 40 taels to buy this cup."

You saved me so much money, I must accept this small token of my appreciation.

Wu Yu did not refuse.

Xu Qing asked casually, "Then why don't you go into this business? I think the profits are quite considerable, much better than carrying heavy loads and unloading goods at the docks."

"Yeah, Brother Wu, why don't you go into business?"

Ye Wushuang said with exasperation, "Could it be that you can't bring yourself to rip off customers, so you quit? You're so spineless!"

Wu Yu had just saved him several dozen taels of silver, and Ye Wushuang had automatically categorized him as one of her own.

He abhorred others' rip-off behavior, but if it was one of his own people who did it, Ye Wushuang had no objection at all.

As long as it's not him who gets slaughtered, he'll feel like he hasn't slaughtered others enough.

Wu Yu didn't react to Xu Qing's probing. He understood that people traveling abroad are naturally wary, especially when it's a woman.

Moreover, he sensed that neither of them harbored any ill will towards him, especially the young boy.

Wu Yu explained, "I was serving in the army a few years ago when business was booming. I injured my leg this year and that's why I retired."

Many people have started doing business in recent years. This business looks very profitable, but it's not as easy as you might imagine.

I have a younger brother to support, so I don't have the capital to take risks. Carrying heavy loads doesn't pay much, but at least it doesn't require much investment.

"I see."

Xu Qing said calmly.

Ye Wushuang asked with a pained expression, "Brother Wu, how old is your brother? Are you short of money?"

Wu Yu forced a stiff smile and said, "It's alright, it's still manageable."

He doesn't smile often, but he tries to respond gently to the boy's enthusiastic and caring words.

The three of them and their guards continued walking forward.

As Xu Qing walked, he smelled the aroma of star anise.

She happily followed the aroma and quickened her pace toward the stall ahead.

Unlike other stalls that were crowded with people, the stall selling spices was very quiet, with only a few people scattered around.

After asking a few questions and smelling the odor, he covered his nose and walked away, as if he was very uncomfortable with the smell.

The blond, blue-eyed vendor started by enthusiastically hawking his wares, but eventually sat listlessly behind his stall, contemplating never selling these things again.

He thought that since these things weren't available here, he could definitely sell them and make a fortune.

To his surprise, the local people had no idea what it was, and since he couldn't speak the local language, they couldn't communicate with him.

As a result, after so long, not a single order has been closed.

Xu Qing walked to the stall and stood there. The familiar aroma of spices was even stronger, making her want to cry.

Braised chicken feet, braised large intestines, braised pig's trotters, braised beef...

With these ingredients, she was finally able to make the delicious food she had been craving for so long!

Although she could buy these things in the mall, they weren't sold in the town or the city.

If she suddenly took it out, I wouldn't know how to explain it.

If I buy some this time, I can buy them from the store later.

Xu Qing glanced at the items on the stall.

Sichuan peppercorns, black pepper, star anise, bay leaves, cinnamon, nutmeg, galangal, white cardamom, amomum tsao-ko, amomum villosum, fennel seeds...

Her eyes lit up as she looked at it; it was so complete!

"How much are these things?" Xu Qing asked.

The blond, blue-eyed British heartthrob stared blankly at Xu Qing: "What did you say?"

Xu Qing then noticed that the stall owner was a foreigner.

She screamed inwardly: My God! There really are foreigners here!

And it's about Ingrid!

If it weren't for the antique buildings and people around her, she would have thought she had returned to the modern era.

Moreover, seeing this blond, blue-eyed foreign handsome guy also dressing in ancient clothes to conform to local customs, Xu Qing felt a strange sense of amusement.

Seeing Xu Qing staring intently at him without saying a word for a long time, the stall owner lowered his head in frustration.

As expected, they couldn't understand what I was saying. It seems like I won't be able to sell anything today.

The next second, a question came through: "How are these things sold?"

The handsome man looked up in shock, and didn't react for a long time.

Xu Qing secretly recalled the question she had just asked.

I'm sure I'm not wrong, am I?

She's someone who's passed English Level 8, after all; it's just that she's been in this era for so long without using or speaking it, so she's a bit rusty now.

Xu Qing stretched out her hand and waved it in front of the stall owner.

The handsome foreign man then came to his senses.

He quickly asked, "How many do you want?"

Xu Qing: "A little of each, please."

Ye Wushuang and Wu Yu had caught up and saw Xu Qing speaking fluent foreign language while talking to a blond, blue-eyed foreigner.

Everyone was so shocked they couldn't close their mouths.

The stall owner, fearing that customers would leave if he was too slow, quickly packed each item into a separate small kraft paper bag.

After everything is packed, wrap it up in a large piece of kraft paper.

In total, it's five taels of silver.
