Rest for one night in an inn in the county.
Early the next morning, the three of Wei Yi went to the auction houses of various shops in the city to search for news about the top grade Liulizi.
But the answers I got were disappointing...
"I'm sorry, our shop doesn't have top-quality Liulizi for sale, but there are quite a few of high-quality Liulizi. Do customers want it?"
"I'm sorry, my lord, but last month we auctioned the best Liulizi. If you wait a little longer, maybe it will appear in the next auction."
"Extreme Liulizi? I haven't seen it for a while. Since the Tang army invaded the hinterland, the supply of goods in the south has been cut off, and the best Liulizi is rare."
"You need top-grade Liulizi? No problem, the goods are definitely available, but it will take a few months, and you have to pay half of the deposit first. What, you say I am a liar?"
During the whole morning, the three of them went to more than a dozen shops and auction houses, but none of them had top-quality Liulizi for sale.
Although he was mentally prepared, Wei Yi couldn't help but feel depressed. As the saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. He did come with great expectations this time, but he didn't expect that the best Liulizi was so difficult to get.
Reminiscing that the trip to Nine Dragons Gate was not going well before, Wei Yi couldn't help but wonder if he was really possessed by bad luck this time?
"Brother Wei, why don't we go back and have a rest first, and then come out in the afternoon to continue watching?"
Seeing Wei Yi's ugly face, Zhu Ling'er walked up to him, and cautiously spoke persuasively.
Wei Yi glanced at her, and his mood eased a little.
"I'm fine. Let's continue to look. It's almost noon. Find a few more. If it doesn't work, let's eat first."
Then Wei Yi turned to Huo Qishan and asked, "Are there any other big shops or auction houses in the east of the city?"
"There is another one, which is relatively large in scale. You have to turn around the corner in front of the street, and then walk forward for a while."
Huo Qishan quickly replied, it was obvious that he was very familiar with the situation here.
Seemingly feeling that the atmosphere was a bit depressing, Huo Qishan took the initiative to provoke the topic, and said with a smile, "Although this last store is not the largest in the county, it is one of the best in the entire county in terms of reputation."
"Why is this?" Zhu Ling'er immediately asked curiously.
"Could it be that the goods sold in this store are special, or the owner is special?" Wei Yi also guessed casually.
"Sir, you are indeed extraordinary, you hit the nail on the head."
Huo Qishan smiled and flattered, and at the same time explained, "The reason why this shop is so famous is because the owner of this shop is a well-known pretty widow."
"The pretty widow's original name is Xiao, so she has always been called Qiaomeiren. I think she was a famous beauty in ten miles and eight towns back then, but on the first day of her marriage, her husband died in an accident. Since then, Qiaomei has become a beautiful woman." The Pretty Widow."
"Later, her family members persuaded her to remarry, and even her parents-in-law couldn't bear to see her alone all the time, and they also persuaded her reasonably, but she herself insisted on being a widow for her husband and devoted herself to the business of the store. Dao, the business at hand is getting better and better."
"The chamber of commerce she opened has gradually developed into one of the largest chambers of commerce in the city. Thousands of people rely on her for food. , her father-in-law is the governor of Changfeng County..."
It can be said that Huo Qishan Pass is quite good, and the stories are told vividly.
"So, let's go and see this shop."
Wei Yi couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
"Hmph, brother Wei, do you want to go to the store to find that Liu Lizi, or do you want to see that pretty widow?" Zhu Ling'er curled her lips and muttered with a pampered expression.
Wei Yi and Huo Qishan looked at each other, and couldn't help laughing out loud.
Soon, the three of them came to the front of the shop.
As Huo Qishan said, the scale is really not small, there are upper, middle and lower floors of the attic, and the business is quite prosperous, with a constant stream of people coming and going, they visited more than a dozen in the morning and none of them could compare with this place.
Wei Yi couldn't help feeling a glimmer of hope.
"Several distinguished guests are looking at the face, should they be here for the first time? May I ask what do you need?" Soon a middle-aged woman came over and greeted politely.
"Go to the second floor. What my son wants is not ordinary things. Money is not a problem. I'm afraid your store will be out of stock."
Without Wei Yi opening his mouth, Huo Qishan spoke proudly.
The middle-aged woman was taken aback when she heard the words, instead of being unhappy, her eyes lit up.
"It's my fault, please come upstairs, gentlemen."
The middle-aged woman didn't react slowly, and quickly welcomed the three of them to the second floor.
"I'm not bragging. If you want ordinary things, my lord, our shop may not be able to meet your requirements, but if you want unusual things, then our shop will definitely be able to satisfy you. Everyone knows that our shop..." Middle-aged The woman kept boasting with a smile on her face.
"Extreme Liulizi, do you have any?" Before she could finish speaking, Wei Yi asked directly.
"Uh……"
The middle-aged woman was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly became a little dumb.
"Pfft... Miss, you were bragging just now, weren't you?" Zhu Ling'er asked with a sly smile.
The middle-aged woman's face was slightly stiff, secretly hating herself for talking too much just now, her expression hesitated for a while, but she didn't know how to fool it.
Wei Yi's eyes flashed, and he vaguely felt that something was wrong. Could it be that there is really the best Liulizi?
Immediately smiled and said, "As long as there are goods, money is not a problem."
"It's not that I don't want to, but that I can't make the decision this time. Otherwise, I'll invite our boss down. How about you discuss it with her personally?" The middle-aged woman said immediately.
"Since you can't make the decision, why don't you invite your boss quickly." Huo Qishan immediately said with a sullen face.
"Okay, okay, everyone, wait a moment."
While speaking, the middle-aged woman quickly ran upstairs.
A moment later, she came downstairs with an elegant young woman, undoubtedly the well-known pretty widow.
Wei Yi looked her up and down a few times, and found that her temperament and appearance are indeed quite good. If you rate her, the overall score should be at least 85 points, so it's no wonder she has such a big reputation.
At the same time, she also walked into the room with a few maid guards. When she saw Huo Qishan first, she immediately greeted him with a smile, "Master Huo? Didn't expect it to be you?"
Huo Qishan was a little embarrassed when he heard this address, and quickly explained, "I came here with my son today."
While speaking, Huo Qishan quickly stood behind, revealing his identity as a follower.
The pretty widow was slightly taken aback when she heard the words, she blinked her eyes in confusion, and couldn't help but be filled with surprise.
Since she knew Huo Qishan, she naturally knew his identity. He was a mighty Martial King-level powerhouse, and he was also the leader of the Nine Dragon Gate. Who was the young master he was talking about?
Only then did her eyes shift to Wei Yi, and at the same time she saw Zhu Ling'er next to her, and she was even more shocked for a moment.
Not only Wei Yi's appearance and demeanor surprised her, but Zhu Ling'er's beauty and demeanor shocked her even more. She has always been confident in her appearance, but she couldn't help being a little ashamed of herself in front of this slim and beautiful girl , A word popped up involuntarily in my heart-male talent and female appearance.
"When did Changfeng County produce a pair of such characters?"
The pretty widow couldn't help but think to herself in shock.
Early the next morning, the three of Wei Yi went to the auction houses of various shops in the city to search for news about the top grade Liulizi.
But the answers I got were disappointing...
