Five hundred and twenty-one chapters wither
Although Zhang Jiao has a good family background, his childhood experience is very miserable. He has worked hard for a long time, so he has a very good understanding of the worldly style of ordinary people.
He smiled and said, "I don't want to hear any secrets of hidden things. I just want to find someone who has had a long experience in Shennongjia and talk about his true thoughts in his heart."
This is so literary that it makes people feel at ease. Although I can’t guess Zhang Jiao’s intentions, it’s good to make money. The broker Zhan Yan nodded and bowed: “If this is the case, then I will thank you for your help.
If you have anything to ask, just say it.”
"It's already noon. Let's find a simple and elegant place to eat and chat.
It doesn’t matter if it’s more expensive.” Zhang Jiao said with a smile.
He heard what he said so readily that he failed to recruit any of the customers in the morning. He was obviously hungry and put on his chest and back, but because he had no income, the broker who was reluctant to spend money was not shirked and said happily: "Then I'll disturb you.
Since my husband is from Nanyang, I must like Yusheng.
The live fish in the "Haizhen Pavilion" in front is now slaughtered, and it is full of fresh flavor. Why not go there to try it?"
Hearing the word "Yusheng", Zhang Jiao's face suddenly appeared in his mind, and a thought flashed through his heart, "I don't know if Boss Li has joined Yiyuan's 'Sword Alliance', the disciple of the legendary former president."
A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he nodded and said, "It's just a fish, please lead the way, sir."
He followed the broker and disappeared at the dock entrance.
Haizhen Pavilion is called a restaurant, but it is actually a small seafood market.
Guests choose seafood at the stalls with clear prices and hand them over to the chefs in the kitchen. After paying a little processing fee, they can enjoy a delicious and affordable seafood meal.
More than 10 minutes later, Zhang Jiao walked into the market and looked at the salty ground. He knew that although he was generous and said it was okay to be more expensive, the broker still savvyly jumped into a restaurant with an appropriate price.
Although he was not satisfied with the surrounding environment, he had a better impression of the old broker.
The broker on the side kept secretly looking at Zhang Jiao's face. When he saw him entering the 'Haizhen Pavilion', he frowned and immediately smiled dryly: "Although the environment here is a little dirty, the food is very fresh and clean..."
"No need to say anything else, old man," Zhang Jiao waved his hand and interrupted the broker's words, and said bluntly: "Although I really don't have the meal fee for this few dollars, I can still tell the difference, so I won't get angry no matter what."
The broker was stunned when he heard this and suddenly said with emotion: "Sir, you must not be an ordinary person with such a demeanor."
Alas, I didn’t expect that after many years, I finally saw such a polite and well-educated person again.
My words are by no means compliment, but sincere.”
"Hahaha, the old man has gone too far." Zhang Jiao took this rainbow fart and started ordering dishes.
Then I handed it over to the kitchen, and habitually found a seat to sit in the dining area, and asked, "Old sir, I came to Haiyuan Harbor with my father when I was a child.
I vaguely remember that this place was much more prosperous than it is now. Did something happen?"
"Nothing special happened. It was just that with the decline of Nanyang, Jiang Chu, Shan Jin, and Western Qin started to compete for the country again, and life gradually became more and more difficult.
Alas, it’s not just Haiyuan Port, but in fact, the entire Shennongjia is like this.” The old broker said with a wry smile.
Zhang Jiao shrugged and blurted out when he heard this: "Actually, life in the zero zone is very hard. If you go out for adventure, even the intermediate supernatural will easily die, right?"
"Mr. comes from a wealthy family," because he has always been gentle and friendly and very well-educated," the old broker was much more courageous and corrected with a wry smile: "So I don't quite understand the meaning of the word "bitter" in the mouths of our common people.
Although life in the zero zone is dangerous, it makes money quickly.
It is natural to make money quickly and have big money to fight for our lives in the eyes of people like us. Otherwise, no one would come to Shennongjia to make a living, so that is not "hard".
But the problem is that now, even if you exchange your life for money, you can't exchange it much, so I say 'hard'."
Zhang Jiao was stunned and said strangely: "Since that's the case, why didn't the old man leave Shennongjia?
Anyway, you can’t make money by taking risks. Since you can’t make money, just take care of your safety.”
The broker sighed and shook his head and said, "We are not as handsome as a gentleman. His wife and children are used to living in the same place, so it is not so easy to leave.
Besides, Jiang Chu, Shan Jin and Western Qin are fighting together, and the main area is much safer than Shennongjia, so it is better to wait here and wait for a turnaround.
But I didn't expect that what I waited for was a major shift in the power of the supernatural catastrophe.
Now the economy of Nanyang is beginning to recover bit by bit, with more and more merchant ships coming and going, and now passenger ships have resumed, and the money from Haiyuan Port is getting easier and easier to make..."
"No, old man, it's still easy to make money now?" Zhang Jiao couldn't help but interrupt in surprise when he heard this.
"In the past, families that lost their pillars at the port all starved to death." The old broker said with a slutty smile: "Now, at least I want to beg for food, and I can survive by half-closing the door."
As he spoke, he felt a sense of hatred in his eyes, he gritted his teeth tightly, took a few breaths before he gradually calmed down.
Seeing this, Zhang Jiao understood how the people's livelihood had withered before Shennongjia. He thought to himself: "Sure enough, I just wanted to find an old landlord in Shennongjia and ask about the situation.
There are so many grain-producing areas near Haiyuan Port, I remember that the first plantation under my name is nearby, but it can still starve people to death.
It seems that in order to compete with Western Qin and Shanjin, the Jiangchu government was simply pursuing the food from Shennongjia like a murder. Killing chickens to get eggs in this way has caused public grievances but still doing their own thing.
Obviously, I have maintained a semi-give up-and-out attitude towards this place.”
At this time, the seafood was ready and delivered.
Smelling the fragrance, Zhang Jiao came to his senses and glared at the opposite side of his greedy eyes, but he still held back the decent and did not move his chopsticks and smiled and said, "We will start eating when the food comes, don't be polite."
Then he first picked up a chopstick of fish sashimi and put it into his mouth, which was considered as a ribbon cutting.
The old broker immediately started to move when he saw it, and his chopsticks flew to feast.
As he ate, his movements suddenly slowed down, and a trace of sadness appeared on his face. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't speak and just tried hard to eat and drink.
