Chapter Thirty-Six: Being Deceived
"Fengyang."
Jiang Wan looked at the two big words hanging high at the city gate, and she sighed that after three months of long journey, she finally arrived at the capital of Zhao State - Fengyang.
"Miss, it's great! We finally left Qi State, and now we don't have to worry about our identity anymore." 012 said happily.
"Uh-huh."
After hearing what 012 said, Jiang Wan only replied to these extremely perfunctory words. After all, she was sleeping in the open all the way. Now she just wants to find a place to have a good rest.
As for the issue of identity, she felt that there should be little problem since she had pretended to die. As for what 012 said, it would say it if it wanted to, and it would be happy.
Looking at the city gate in front, Jiang Wan took a look and walked into Fengyang City, which was rumored to be a lot of delicious food.
I saw shops on both sides of the street, and the afterglow of dusk spread lightly on these neat and orderly pavilions, adding a bit of hazy and poetic to the prosperous Fengyang City in front of me.
"Fengyang City is truly prosperous and well-known. It is worthy of being the capital of Zhao State." Jiang Wan sighed.
"Is that right? I think so too." A young man with a handsome face suddenly appeared beside Jiang Wan. As soon as he spoke, he almost scared Jiang Wan's soul away.
Jiang Wan was frightened by the sudden appearance and retreated and hit a passerby walking behind her.
The passerby who was hit had a good temper. Although he was hit by Jiang Wan, he did not blame him for this.
When Jiang Wan turned around and saw that she bumped into someone, she hurriedly said, "Sorry, I accidentally bumped into you."
When the visitor saw that Jiang Wan had apologized, it was not a big deal anyway. Moreover, seeing that Jiang Wan was a quiet scholar, it shouldn't have been intentional. He waved his hand and said it was okay, and then left.
That's right, Jiang Wan was originally wearing women's clothes on the way from Qi to Zhao, but when she met 32 inexplicable conversations on the road, she robbed money and sex in broad daylight.
In order to make her journey less magnificent, she decisively chose to dress up as a man.
Not to mention, since Jiang Wan did this, the chances of accidents have been much less, at least those inexplicable pickups have disappeared.
Seeing that the matter of hitting someone just now had been resolved, Jiang Wan turned to look at the culprit who hit him.
When Xu Ziwei saw Jiang Wan looking over, he smiled embarrassedly.
"Sorry, I suddenly started to scare you just now. I will never do this next time, I swear."
As Xu Ziwei said that, he was about to raise his hand to make a swearing move. Jiang Wan hurriedly stopped him. After all, this was not a big deal, so there was no need to swear to explain.
However, Jiang Wan was curious about him. Logically speaking, don’t people nowadays believe in these things? Why did he just swear casually, as if he didn’t take the swear seriously at all.
When Xu Ziwei saw that Jiang Wan had taken action to stop him from swearing, he must have forgiven him. Next, it is time to show his true purpose.
"The young master must not be from Zhao, right? Let me introduce myself. My name is Xu Jing, who is an authentic Zhao. Fengyang is not a small place. If there is no one to guide you, I believe I will not be able to fully appreciate the beauty of Fengyang City."
After hearing Xu Ziwei's words, Jiang Wan realized that this guy was probably someone like a tour guide.
"012, are people nowadays so good at selling?"
After listening to Jiang Wan’s question, 012 answered:
"Miss, I don't know it, but I've said it a long time ago that this place is not ancient, so it's probably normal for this kind of situation."
Jiang Wan thought about it carefully, but generally the tour guide charges. This person named Xu Jing probably wanted to pay for it himself, but I don’t know how much he wants.
"Young Master Xu."
"I don't dare to be a lie, just call me Xu Jing."
"I understand what you mean, I guess you are leading the way, right? But I just don't know the price..."
After hearing Jiang Wan's words, Xu Ziwei knew that the young man in front of him understood. He smiled slightly and replied: "I only need ten taels of silver for patronage."
"Ten taels of silver? You might as well go and snatch it."
As he said that, Jiang Wan wanted to leave herself to go for a walk, but at this moment Xu Ziwei grabbed her.
"If the young master doesn't want me, you can also choose my picture album. I have a detailed map of Fengyang, the capital of Zhaoguo."
After hearing this, Jiang Wan's pace of walking slowed down. The only way Xu Zi saw that there was a chance, he immediately seized the opportunity to sell it.
"My picture album contains buildings and explanations of all sizes of Fengyang City. It's simply a must-have for Fengyang when traveling. I wonder if the young master has any intention?"
Looking at Xu Ziwei's sincere face, Jiang Wan decided to give him another chance. She asked: "I don't know how much the price is?"
"One or two, only one or two." Xu Ziwei's face was full of sincere smiles.
Because he had suffered the previous blow of ten taels, Jiang Wan now felt that it was quite cheap after hearing this and two taels.
However, Jiang Wan is indeed not short of money at present. After all, she has taken a lot of good things from her tomb.
Jiang Wan thought that there was a picture album that was indeed OK, so after a brief hesitation, she bought the picture album that Xu Ziwei said was necessary for traveling, Fengyang.
After seeing that the money was obtained, Xu Ziwei immediately said goodbye to Jiang Wan.
Jiang Wan thought he was anxious to sell it to the next person, and thought that Xu Jing was really dedicated, so she said goodbye to him.
Looking at Xu Ziwei's back as he left, Jiang Wan remembered that with this picture album, she must have found a place where she could rest well.
With excitement, Jiang Wan thought that she could take a break and relax for a while immediately. When she opened the picture album, she really wanted to beat Xu Ziwei to death.
012 At first, I didn’t understand why Jiang Wan was in such a bad mood now, but when it saw the picture album, it instantly understood the reaction of its young lady.
Not to mention the detailed pictures and texts of the picture album, it is simply as simple as it is.
Let me put it this way, as long as you don’t look at the little comments marked next to him, you will definitely not be able to tell what he is drawing.
"When traveling, Fengyang must have? Don't let me catch him next time."
Jiang Wan swears in her heart in anger.
"Miss, this picture album is so useless, let's throw it away quickly!" 012 made this suggestion because she was afraid that the young lady would remember her experience of being deceived after seeing it.
But unexpectedly, Jiang Wan said directly: "Take it? Why do you want to throw it? I have to keep it well. When I catch him next time, I will ask him to explain it to me."
After hearing what the young lady said, 012 could only express understanding and then stopped talking.
Xu Ziwei, who had already left there, was in a really good mood today.
"Hehehe, I sold another picture album today. I have to find a place to celebrate. After all, people these days are getting harder and harder to cheat. He is so lucky to meet one today."
