Chapter 206 Close to the truth
"Sister, what's your name? You helped us a lot today."
The people-pleasing Zhou Xiaozhou took up the post immediately.
"You can just call me Sister Yang." The sister wearing the gold bracelet smiled kindly.
Zhou Xiaozhou, who was smiling flatteringly, exchanged a few glances with Qin Tao and continued to flatter him: "Sister Yang, you just said that there is unrest in the county town recently. What's going on?"
Now it was Sister Yang's turn to look surprised.
"Why? Aren't you here for this matter?"
"what?"
Zhou Xiaozhou complained in his heart: How would I know what's going on in the county town? Am I just following your lead?
But what he said was: "It's a thing, it's a thing, it's a thing, by then the commotion in this county town will be a bit too big!"
"Where is this?"
Sister Yang looked surprised by Zhou Xiaozhou's performance.
"You! You've also caught up. The county magistrate here is going to be promoted because of this. Alas! When I say promotion, I guess it's just to make room for the people from above to take over. You! Hurry up and get as many good things as you can."
Zhou Xiaozhou's CPU started working quickly. Sister Yang's words contained a lot of information.
But she asked again why she was willing to tell this to a stranger?
Qin Tao also grasped the key point, "good stuff".
He asked tentatively: "Sister Yang, what do you think we can do here? We just got here and we are completely in the dark!"
Sister Yang looked at Qin Tao and then at Zhou Xiaozhou.
"Don't you have pigs?"
Pigs? Where can they get them now?
Zhou Xiaozhou was so depressed that he couldn't speak. He just gave up and said, "I ate it all."
This surprised Sister Yang: "You can do it! After all, it's hard to sneak something out of this natural experiment area, so it's safer to eat it. I thought you had some channels, and wondered if we could still cooperate."
This made Zhou Xiaozhou and the others even more at a loss for words.
Natural experimental area, what natural experimental area?
Since I can only smile foolishly.
Sister Yang then asked, "What else do you have?"
Qin Tao was about to open his mouth to say something when Zhou Xiaozhou held his hand.
Zhou Xiaozhou walked forward, got closer to Sister Yang, and even pretended to look outside, then asked Sister Yang in a low voice: "Sister, what do you want?"
Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared.
Zhou Xiaozhou now wants to be the person who is ready at any moment.
That's what Sister Yang prepares whatever she wants!
Sister Yang was also quite sensible, and she pretended to cover her mouth with her hand: "Sister, can you get the divine beast?"
"Mythical beast?"
"Well, dead or alive is fine."
"Hehe." Zhou Xiaozhou laughed awkwardly.
Sister Yang understood immediately.
Although Zhou Xiaozhou didn't know what she understood, that didn't hinder them from continuing their communication.
"Of course, it's hard to get a divine beast, but aren't you in the mountains? Can you get some divine herbs?"
Although Zhou Xiaozhou didn't know why the topic turned to cultivation, she could still continue to talk nonsense: "What kind of immortal grass?"
"Hey, you really have it! I knew you were extraordinary, girl."
Sister Yang was so happy that she rolled up her sleeves and her gold bracelets shook three times.
It looked like he was going to have a long chat, but he was still cautious.
"Who is that? Go to the door and see if those people in black leather are coming this way?"
The waiter had already retreated to the door, but when he heard this, he nodded and bowed and went a little further out onto the street, partly to solicit customers and partly to keep watch.
Sister Yang then continued to yell, "These guys in black leather are so annoying. They patrol the streets a hundred times a day. If you don't know, you would think this broken county town is doing so well. It's making it hard for me to do business here."
"Sister, this is off topic."
"Oh, sister! So that's it! Xiancao, I can buy everything for you. Don't underestimate me because this is just a small shop! This is a stronghold. It turns out that my disappointing cousin is in charge. Our business is not here."
Zhou Xiaozhou remembered that her cousin should be the original wife of Mr. Wu, the head of Huang Liangduo's family.
Ah! What is going on?
"No, sister, Sister Yang." Zhou Xiaozhou continued to deceive: "We don't have much stuff, you should tell me something real, I will see if I have anything."
Sister Yang thought for a moment and made the arrangements: "That's right! Girl, you smugglers are also in trouble."
Zhou Xiaozhou, who was forced to accept a new identity, felt uneasy.
"Is that so? If you can get some Changren and Huxiang, I won't say anything. I'll pay you the price. Of course, among the immortal herbs, the deer ox-bone is the best. If you don't have that, I'd like some dragon bone grass."
In just one sentence, Zhou Xiaozhou heard about two specialties of Lai'an Village.
No, this should be the specialty of Qingfeng Mountain.
Zhou Xiaozhou had a vague guess in his mind.
Qin Tao and the others didn't understand anything.
Seeing Zhou Xiaozhou fall into deep thought, Sister Yang immediately felt that there was hope.
"Of course, I'll collect some of the others as well. The market for tortoise shell fruit is the best outside recently. If you have large quantities, you can sell them to me. We can trade inside or outside."
Zhou Xiaozhou restrained his expression and said seriously: "Sister Yang, you are joking. What's the inside and outside? When we mountain people have good things, we must ask you for help."
After saying this, he was about to leave.
"Sister, look, we have been here for such a long time, and our family is waiting for the rice to be cooked! Let's go first."
Zhou Xiaozhou pulled up Qin Tao, who was confused, and ran away quickly, carrying two bags of rice.
When the waiter saw the man running away, he hurried back to the store.
"Master, are you going to chase him or not?"
"What are you chasing?"
Boss Yang turned his big gold bracelet and said calmly, "You can't escape from my palm."
Then he looked at the waiter with disdain and said, "Stop making trouble."
He threw his sleeves and went back to the store.
The clerk stood there blankly, keeping his head bent respectfully, but his eyelids rolled up and there were waves in his eyes. He didn't look like a living person.
Zhou Xiaozhou led his men to an empty back alley. Qin Tao broke free from Zhou Xiaozhou's hand and began asking questions.
"What's wrong, Xiao Zhou? They are willing to help us, why are you running so fast?"
Zhou Xiaozhou was still breathing heavily.
Qin Tao's two men consciously monitored the entrance of the alley to see if anyone was passing by.
"Then, big sister, are you setting a trap for us?"
"Trick?"
"I feel so. We have no relatives or friends, why is she telling us so much?"
Zhou Xiaozhou calmed down and said, "Didn't you hear what she said about inside and outside? She also said that we were smuggling. I doubt that we are really in a natural experiment area like she said, but we don't know what the experiment is. How did we get in and how can we get out?"
