Chapter five hundred and fifty-four inquiries

Several people arrived at an inn outside the north gate of Changsha, and saw people coming and going, people coming and going on the wide official road, cars and horses were noisy, and people were buzzing.

Next to the official road, there is a small town, with the market houses and houses in an orderly manner. The simple and neat inn occupies the largest area, but it is empty. There are only a few green robe officials eating simple meals. Compared with the tall and gorgeous inn next to it, it is simply divided into heaven and earth.

The senior officials could not be wronged by their masters, so they would rather not take advantage of the court and stay in the inn and serve them properly.

Around the station is a bustling street, with Hu cakes, fruits, silks, butchers, vegetable shops, book shops, and gadgets, all in one place.

There are everything you need to eat, drink, and have fun. The nearby market is gathered here. It should not be called a post station, but a post city.

The arrival of Chen Dutou and his group seemed to have a drop of water entering the sea, inconspicuous. There were too many such hawkers.

As soon as I entered here, the huge Transportation Office was in sight.

"Damn it, there is this yamen everywhere!" a man muttered.

"Of course there are people who take money out of the money!" Chen Yi frowned and said softly: "There are many people here, so talk less."

Immediately, the group of people, like ordinary mountain people, took the package into the warehouse, found a toothman, and sold all the fur buckets. Because they were rare fur goods, the price was low, and they only got more than 500 stags of money in total.

The reason why I chose to sell it in the warehouse is that, on the one hand, the warehouse can be used as a guarantee, and on the other hand, there are many merchants here.

"Do you want copper coins or money tickets?" asked the tooth man who received the goods with a smile.

"Let's get money tickets, we're going to have trouble with copper coins!" Chen Yi said without hesitation.

"Oh, your knowledge is quite obvious. Before, many mountain people only knew copper coins, but they didn't know that now, can money tickets be used and it's very convenient!"

The tooth carefully took out a handful of money tickets from his arms, which were blue and black, densely filled with symbols, and there was a very conspicuous word "Shi Guan" on the front. Then he took out fifty-six tickets to him and took two more 100-month tickets to him.

"If you want copper coins, I have to go to the Tianxia Money House to exchange it. It requires one cent of water to pump, and it's troublesome. Why not let's add five points to the second one? If you have such goods in the future, you have to come to me!" Yaren said with a solid face, revealing his closeness in his words.

Chen Yi sneered in his heart. The complete tiger skin alone was worth more than 1,000 guan, but he only gave 200 guan, and it would be five times the amount of money he made. It was ridiculous to want to buy it with 200 guan for such a big profit.

Besides, 560 stakes are 560 stakes per cent, and 200 stake is too stingy.

"This is the word "Shi", why is it just a ten-sing?" Chen Yi pointed to the word "Shi" and asked curiously.

"This is the meaning of ten, it was promulgated by the court, and the rumors were written by His Majesty. They are different from the usual ones, and they are similar in sound!"

Yaren forgives the ignorance of such mountain people and patiently explains: "Look at this word, the same is true. Although it is light and dozens of paper, it can be spent anywhere. The largest one is only ten cents of money, and the smallest one is only a hundred cents. All money houses in the world can exchange it."

"The money houses in the world are amazing. I heard that they are royal, and they have them in every county, as big as ours, as well."

After Yaren left, the five people hurriedly looked at the dozens of papers. Because they had guarantees from the warehouse and were also Yaren from Yaren, they had some guarantees and were willing to collect money tickets.

Moreover, after their mission is over, they will still have to return to the north. At that time, the money ticket will be brought directly to Jiangling for exchange, which is convenient and fast.

Then another person divided the ten-point chunk of money, and Chen Yi asked them to go to the tea stall and the wine shop to inquire where the ordnance department was.

After three days in a row, as old scouts for many years, they finally found a territory.

"Fifty miles west of Changsha City, there is a valley called the Imperial Guard Camp, but after three or five days, I have to transport food and fruits over there. The amount is huge, not only a few thousand people, but more than ten thousand people. It is very likely that it is the Ordnance Division we have been looking for for a long time."

Chen Yi said excitedly, and the others were also happy.

They came to Hunan just to find the Arsenal Department and find the legendary Arsenal that fired the sky thunder. This peerless weapon must not be exclusive to the pseudo-Tang Dynasty. It is necessary to find out clearly. It is best to take a craftsman back and then take it back to the Central Plains.

At the very least, you have to figure out how it looks, and its pros and cons.

If this task is completed, at least it will be promoted to the third level. There is absolutely no shortage of land and luxury houses. This temptation is really too great and no one can stand it.

Chen Yiguan was promoted to the third level, which was from Dutou to become the King of Ying. This was a big leap. When he reached this level, he would basically not have any worries about his life.

"Duzhu, let's do it!"

"Yes, I'll try."

Chen Yi looked at everyone excited and couldn't help but nodded, saying, "This time, we dressed up as civil servants. Every time we transported fruits and vegetables, we had the opportunity to peek into the situation inside. Remember, everything is to keep the name. If it is exposed, we will all die!"

"No--" Several people lowered their heads and said in a deep voice.

After spending some money, a few people entered the civilian group and drove a cart to drive the donkey. Then they arrived at the valley. A military camp firmly controlled the entrance of the valley, and they would conduct strict inspections when entering and leaving.

No craftsmen can come out if they are lenient and strict.

After being examined, several people were also surprised and saw that the scene was very grand.

There is a widened and reinforced river above the valley, with rapid water flow. Water channels and many gates were built below. The river water poured down from above, like waterfalls.

There were several huge water wheels rotating continuously where the river water was left, and then a gentle stream was formed. Next to the stream, there were many houses, and many women, children, young and old lived in it. It was even seen that it was a small market with many beautiful little ladies passing by.

In the distance, dozens of chimneys were towering, and black smoke was constantly emitting. The courtyard wall was very high and there was nothing to see, but it was predictable that it must be a place where craftsmen worked.
