Chapter 70 Yuhuang City

Canghai took medicine and drank three full glasses of water before he could barely dilute the bitter taste in his mouth, and then asked seriously: "Junior sister, you said that Wei San and the others went to Yuhuang City for the Secret Treasure Conference.

Are you going? There are still a few days left for the Secret Treasure Conference, why are they in such a hurry? Do they have to get to Yuhuang City within half a month?"

Cen Xiyan thought for a moment and said: "I guess they are going for the secret treasure conference. Apart from this incident, there are no other major events in Yuhuang City recently. As for the half-month period they agreed with us,

There are two possibilities for the time. First, we are afraid that the time mentioned is too generous. We are not in a hurry. If there is an accident on the road, it will delay their affairs. Second, maybe they are not very sure about the news.

We need to arrive a few days in advance to make sure, and to check the situation of the seller of that picture." Cen Xiyan paused, and then said: "Perhaps, there are both reasons."

Canghai thought for a moment and then asked: "When does Junior Sister plan to go to Yuhuang City?"

"Don't worry, rest in Uta Town for two days, and then I'll set off again."

"I really want to go and see with you the secret map drawn by Master Gongshu Ban. I don't know what it is like..." Cang Hai's eyes were bright with a look of longing.

"You, it's better to rest here and recover. Don't worry, if the secret map is true, I will definitely get it!" Cen Xiyan had a firm look on his face, and his tone was determined to win.

It’s not that she peeps at the value of the picture, but because the founder of their Yuanyin Sect has some connections with Master Gongshu Ban. If the picture is real, she will never let it fall into the hands of others.

!

"Okay, junior sister, when you get that picture back, remember to let me take a look first!" Canghai looked at Cen Xiyan with bright eyes, like a puppy begging for meat and bones.

Cen Xiyan smiled and said, "Okay, as long as you are willing to take the medicine on time, I will be the first to show you the picture when I get it back."

"No..." Canghai's handsome face fell again.

Cen Xiyan collected the medicine bowl and left Canghai's room.

In the front hall, I saw Cang Qing sitting there drinking tea, so I asked casually: "Brother Cang Qing, why didn't you go in just now?"

She had an extraordinary ear and had heard Cang Qing's footsteps before, but she stopped for a moment at the door of Canghai and then left.

Cang Qing put down the tea cup, glanced at Cen Xiyan, and suddenly said in a deep voice: "From now on, if he doesn't take medicine, just force him to drink it."

When Cen Xiyan heard this, he couldn't help but look at Cang Qing in surprise. This guy rarely spoke more than ten words! When did Canghai offend him?

Cang Qing felt a little uncomfortable when Cen Xiyan looked at her, so she stood up and said, "I'm going to practice sword practice."



Two days later, Cen Xiyan and Cang Qing, riding two fast horses, set off towards Yuhuang City. This time they only had two people. Cen Xiyan left the chisel and hammer behind to take care of Canghai.

Although Yuhuang City is not the capital of Yanjiang, it is the most famous city in Yanjiang! Because this is a city famous for its business and richest in the world!

This city has a long history and prosperous trade, and is a gathering place for Hu merchants.

Hundreds of years ago, some merchants from distant western countries would bring some jewelry, spices, wine and other items to Yuhuang City, exchange them for silk, porcelain, tea and other goods and then transport them back, earning huge profits from the price difference over time.

, this city became the most important and famous city for trade between several Eastern countries and Western countries.

There are also some Western businessmen who love Eastern culture and have settled here. Together with some local ethnic minorities in Yanjiang, such as the Uighurs, they are collectively called Hu people.

I don’t know since when, September every year has been regarded as the trade month of Yuhuang City by merchants. This is the most lively month in Yuhuang City. Businessmen, big and small, from almost all nearby countries will gather in Yuhuang City.

Sell ​​and exchange goods.

Especially the days from the fifth to the tenth day of September are the Secret Treasure Conference in Yuhuang City. Many rare treasures will be displayed and auctioned during these days, attracting the attention of countless businessmen and wealthy nobles.

In the past few years, Cen Xiyan has racked her brains to make money for Yuanyin Sect. Naturally, she has been to Yuhuang City, a gathering place for merchants. She also specially participated in the secret treasure conference in Yuhuang City, which really opened her eyes.

Although this ancient "auction" may be underestimated, its lively and spectacular scenes are no worse than some modern large-scale trade fairs and auctions.

However, she had not originally planned to come to this year's secret treasure conference in person. If it hadn't been for Wei San's business, if it hadn't been for the drawing of Master Gongshu Ban, she might have stayed quietly in Qingyuan Town for the last few days.

Months, she stayed until the Cen family sent someone to take her back to Beijing...

Cenxiyan and Cangqing arrived at Yuhuang City at noon on the second day after setting off from Wuta Town.

"Hey! This year seems to be even more lively than last year." Cen Xiyan said casually while looking at the scene on the street.

Cang Qing said "hmm" in agreement.

At this time, the city of Yuhuang was bustling with activity. Vendors selling and exchanging goods could be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys, and there was a dazzling array of goods.

Of course, the merchants who set up stalls are all small businessmen, and the products are of varying quality. If you want to do big business or buy valuable goods, you have to go to the Union Trade Plaza in the West City.

The venue for the Secret Treasure Conference is the Jinbi Building in the West Trade Plaza, which is the largest trading building under the management of the United Chamber of Commerce.

After Cen Xiyan and Cang Qing entered the city, they went straight to a restaurant near the West Market.

The name of the restaurant is very unique, called "North, South, West and East"! The fonts on the plaque are also flying and phoenixes, elegant and elegant! If Wei San was here, he would definitely recognize the fonts and the fonts on Cen Xiyan's fan, as well as Lan

The font of Cheng Linlang Pavilion was written by one person! That is, Cen Xiyan himself wrote the inscription.

In fact, although there are a lot of businesses under Yuanyinmen now, the only two stores where Cen Xiyan has written plaques are "Linlang Pavilion" and "South and North West East". Because he is afraid that if there are too many plaques, interested people will take away from these and other stores.

The plaque shows the famous place.

After all, it's okay to have two shops in one. If the plaques on many shops in various places are made by the same person, and someone notices them, it will be easy to guess that the same owner is behind these shops. And Yuanyinmen is hidden in the city, so you don't want to

Being noticed by the world, he has always made money in a low-key manner.

Therefore, except for the Liuxiangzhai run by Tao Niang, which is a chain store, other shops in various places, even those doing the same business, all have different names.
