The Reborn Wife is Farming - Chapter 1223 Enemy or Friend (2)
The man responded happily, and ran out to call for someone.
Squatting around the inn are men who specialize in guiding and interpreting. They are all nearby villagers or people from the town. This was once the occupied area of Dajin, so they all know some golden language, and because they are related to the grassland Recently, I often do some barter transactions with the people of those tribes, so I also know their languages, and it is not difficult to communicate with each other.
This is also an income during the slack season, and it is not weaker than farming if it is done well.
As soon as he saw a smiling man running out of the inn, a man shouted loudly: “Wen San, your cousin is looking for you, and he must have found you another job!”
Everyone looked enviously at Wen San who was squatting on the ground. It would be great to have a cousin who works as a waiter in the inn.
Wen San immediately stood up when he heard the call, and limped to meet him quickly.
The clerk pulled Wen San and whispered: “Cousin, although this client is a bit stingy, but his overall demeanor is a bit different. If you put your heart into it, you might be able to develop into a long-term client. They are going out to practice. My son, it is estimated that the money given by the family is not enough.”
Wen San nodded again and again, and assured him repeatedly, “Don’t worry, I will take good care of you!”
When Xiaobao and Xiaoxiong saw the two of them approaching, they looked away, and they stopped looking at the men squatting under the eaves or standing under the wall.
Xiaobao and Xiaoxiong didn’t seem to notice that Wen San’s leg was lame, and nodded with a smile, “Let’s go.”
The clerk was still a little nervous, nodded and bowed with a smile, and said, “Thank you two young masters, don’t look at the little cousin who is lame, but his walking speed is not slower than others, if you have something to do, just let him walk.” Running errands.”
As if to prove that his legs didn’t interfere with his work, Wen San took two quick steps forward, and said with a smile on his face, “Young masters, if you have something to do, just tell the younger ones, the younger ones are quite familiar with this place.”
Xiao Bao nodded, and said as he walked out: “We just want to buy some local products such as fur medicinal materials.”
Wen San breathed a sigh of relief, this kind of thing is quite common in the market, and it’s not hard to find.
The market place is two or three hundred paces to the east outside the city gate, and this inn is close to the city gate, so a group of people walked slowly.
Although they have been here for two days, the two of them don’t know enough about the important town, so they looked around curiously and asked Wen San, “Are many of you here doing translators like you?”
“It’s a slack season, so there are a lot of people,” Wen San explained. “When the farming season is busy, only special farmers or people who don’t have work in the field come.”
Xiao Bao nodded and asked, “Can you all find a job?”
Wen San shook his head and sighed: “It’s okay when the farming is busy. There are few people who rob. You may receive a customer in a day. At this time, there are many people who rob, and you may not be able to receive a customer in three to five days.”
Little Bear: “Then you just squat there and wait? If you can’t get the job, isn’t it a waste of time?”
“I’m resting when I go home. Maybe I can get a job here. As long as I get it, I will have money.” Wen San limped a step in front of the two of them, turned around and smiled, “We’re pretty good.” Well, those who can’t even do this job can only wait for the job of loading, but the merchants always bring their buddies and bodyguards here, and they are even less used, not necessarily for ten days and a half months Waiting for work, the work is still tiring, and the wages are still low.”
After all, there are still too few sideline jobs.
And because this is an important border town, there are a lot of businessmen traveling from south to north, so everyone can still do some scattered work, but in other places, they don’t even have these opportunities. Isn’t their life even more difficult?
If only more people could have this opportunity!
Little Treasure walked outside the city gate while thinking, and when he saw the questioning field not far away, Little Treasure couldn’t help being taken aback, even Little Bear stopped in his tracks.
This is the first time for the two children to visit the border crossing. When they saw the people of all ethnic groups inside, they couldn’t help being stunned. Before the two of them approached, they heard the noise coming from inside. There are really languages of all ethnic groups. , and speak by shouting.
The two listened attentively, and found that they didn’t hear the golden language they were familiar with at all. They couldn’t help but feel lucky, fortunately they brought Wensan.
Wen San, who was familiar with the way, led everyone into the market, pointed to the goods on the booth and introduced: “These are just a part, and they don’t display some goods. Only after meeting a big buyer and confirming that the price can be sold Just take it out.”
Xiao Bao and Xiao Xiong nodded, carefully observed the Yuan people in the discussion room, and asked, “Is there anyone from Yuan Ting here?”
Wen San paused, and said cautiously: “Young Master, why do you ask this? This is Daqi’s discussion field, and there are no people from the Yuan court. Most of the people who will come to this discussion field are herdsmen on the grassland or representatives of the tribe. .”
Thinking that this is his client after all, and that he has a good attitude towards him, Wen San couldn’t help reminding: “Da Qi just fought with Da Yuan, and the relationship between the two sides is not very good. It is better for you to inquire less about Yuan Ting’s affairs. .”
Is it because they are worried about their collusion with Yuan Ting?
Xiaobao and Xiaoxiong looked at each other, and said with a smile: “We are just asking curiously, after all, this is an important town of the imperial court, and there are so many merchants on the grassland, so it should be said that Dayuan should also send people here, after all, the debate should be conducted by It was mediated and managed by both parties.”
Wen San was slightly relieved, and explained: “Our Daqi and Dayuan have just finished the war, and the two sides have no contact. This discussion is still asked by our magistrate and the court. It is only counted as a private transaction, not a formal one, so There is no one from Yuan Ting.”
Xiaobao and Xiaoxiong nodded, then looked down at the goods on the stall.
They only brought three cars, and kept one for themselves or something they took with them, and the rest could be used as vans.
Because of the limited space, the two of them decided to bring all the medicinal materials and furs. These two things are easy to buy and carry in the Central Plains.
The two of them squatted down to ask the price, and after walking around, they knew it by heart, Xiaobao said to Xiaoxiong in a low voice: “Wen San said that the price of these things is nearly 20% higher than last year, it seems that the people of Dayuan are having a hard time. “
“It’s a pity that we don’t know their language, otherwise we can ask them about the situation in the grassland.” Xiaoxiong glanced at the people in the field. The translation here is similar to that of Wensan. Three points are based on shouting, seven points are based on gestures, and the price is negotiated. It’s okay, it’s impossible to really ask the other party’s situation.
They came here not only to do business, but more importantly, to learn more about Da Yuan’s situation.
Xiao Bao took Xiao Xiong to walk around the venue again, and then told Wen San and the two guards: “We are short of time, the three of you go over there to see what happened, and we go this way.”
Wen San was surprised, “Don’t you need me to translate for you?”
Xiao Bao smiled and said, “No need, let’s go shopping by ourselves, just take the two of them there.”
Such a situation is not uncommon, Wen San thought about it and took two guards with him, anyway, he only needed to obey the orders of the guests.
Xiao Bao then pulled Xiao Xiong and the rest of the guards to find the biggest stall in the market.
