"Why?"
"We are all honest merchants, and these goods belong to your people. The people at the foot of Xiao Mountain ordered us to transport all of them to Chang 'an City. Look, this is the approval from the military officer over there. We didn't dare to delay along the way because we were afraid that Prince Zhang would be anxious from waiting. That's why we came here …"
"Get ready!"
Without waiting for him to finish speaking, the golden-armored Jinwu Guard general waved his hand. In an instant, the guards at the city gate and on top of the city gate were all prepared for battle. The onlookers were so scared that they retreated one after another.
The merchant who had returned the message was also a little scared.
At this moment, a palanquin slowly came out of the gate. A cold voice shouted, "Stop! What are you doing?"
"Hurry up and stop Old Man!"
When the Jinwu Guard general heard this voice, he frowned slightly. However, he still waved his hand. Only then did the guards at the city gate release their bows and arrows.
Wei Zheng rushed over as soon as he heard about this.
Fortunately, he came in time. Otherwise, all of them would have been finished.
Wei Zheng stuck a fake beard on his face, making his original beard longer. Moreover, there were two more greyish-white whiskers below his temples.
He checked himself with a bronze mirror. After confirming that there were no mistakes, he walked out of the palanquin. The Jinwu Guard had already known about Wei Zheng's and the others' attire. Although he was a little surprised, he wasn't too shocked.
The Jinwu Guard general cupped his fists and said, "Elder Wei, you came at the right time. Look at how improper this is. What if there is an emergency military situation and we are delayed?"
"This …"
"Don't worry. Let me deal with this matter."
Wei Zheng touched his beard indifferently. He looked at the merchant who had already been scared silly and said, "The goods themselves need to be handed over to the employer. Is the employer in the imperial city?"
"No, but there are too many goods. If we don't hurry up and enter the city, we won't be able to afford the loss if the goods outside the city are damaged when the sky turns dark!"
"Sir, please tell me. I've come all the way to Chang 'an from afar. I'm so hungry and thirsty that the horses that were pulling the goods have been starving for two days. I just want to settle the goods as soon as possible and find some food to eat!"
"You … must uphold justice for us!"
As he spoke, all the merchants who had returned knelt in front of Wei Zheng.
Wei Zheng had always been upright and plainspoken. How could he get used to such a situation? How was the merchant at fault?
Needless to say, the tobacco leaf must be the raw material for the cigarettes that Zhang Feng had made. This kid had mentioned it before, so when he heard about the tobacco leaf, he quickly rushed over before anyone else.
If someone else were to come, or if the nobles were to get ahead of them, then …
Things were going to be tricky.
Wei Zheng frowned and asked, "Why don't we just transport the camels to Mount Barren? Instead of coming directly to Chang 'an? "
When the merchant who had returned heard this, he became even more indignant as he pointed outside the city and said, "Isn't there a Chang 'an garrison at the foot of Mount Barren? After seeing so many carriages, they refused to let us in no matter what. They even said that Prince Zhang was in the city and told us to look for him in the city. That's why we came to Chang 'an City. "
Damn Yuchi Gong. What the hell are you doing?
Don't you know that these things belong to Fengzi?
Wei Zheng suppressed his anger and said, "Since you've found me, Old Man will take over this matter for you. Is the Prince Zhang you're talking about, the Dean of White Deer College, Zhang Feng?"
The merchant who had returned didn't know Zhang Feng's name. He had only heard everyone call him Prince Zhang. When he heard this, he hurriedly nodded his head.
Those who were hiding far away also heard their conversation and couldn't help but be shocked.
"What? These things belong to the Prince Zhang of White Deer College?"
"Oh my god, no wonder. I was wondering how anyone could collect tree leaves. It turns out that it's him!"
"Hahaha, some time ago, I heard that he collected a large number of black and swarthy war beasts from a barbarian merchant. I don't know what he's up to."
"I've also heard that someone on Xiao Mountain is really collecting tree leaves and bamboo leaves. Could it be that Childe Zhang and Dean Zhang are the ones who have decided on these things?"
As the discussion continued, Ye Zichen was stunned. .
The crowd couldn't help but sigh.
"You should have said so earlier. There are so many tree leaves outside the city. Why would he travel thousands of miles to collect things from foreign barbarians?"
"Stop! Come on, Prince Zhang. He's a god who descended to the mortal world. How can you speculate about him? If Prince Zhang said that these leaves are useful, then they must be very useful. Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand! "
While the crowd was discussing, Zhang Feng hurriedly squeezed through the crowd. This scene caused another round of exclamations from the crowd.
After all.
Zhang Feng was now a very popular person in Chang 'an City.
The exclamations from the other side instantly gave Wei Zheng and the merchant a glimmer of hope.
Zhang Feng clenched his fists and asked the crowd to make way. Then, he saw the situation at the city gate and Old Wei who was negotiating. He hurriedly said, "Oh, Old Wei, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. If it weren't for you, I don't know how to end things today."
Then Zhang Feng took out a bamboo tube and handed it to the guard in golden armor. The guard glanced at it and saw that it was actually that kind of cigarette. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He didn't know whether to accept it or not.
Zhang Feng ignored him and said, "Oh, soldier, this is all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding! Please calm down. This box of cigarettes is for the brothers to calm down. If you don't have enough, you can go to Tong Hui Fang Yue Lai Restaurant to get more. That's my business. "
