[Chapter 47—The Old Story of Chaoya】 Greed is the bane
"What?" Duan Baiyue asked.
"Go to Fuming Village and see what a person named Feng Gu is doing and how to live well." The old man said, "When I come back, I will tell you why the burning star will shine."
Duan Baiyue promised: "Good."
The old man said: "For so many years, there are some people who come to me to sneak around and ask questions. You are the most refreshing one. Even if you don't ask Feng Gu, you are not afraid of being cheated?"
Duan Baiyue smiled and said: "I have no enmity with my predecessors. I don't think there will be any traps in the Fuming village. I will run at a glance and look at the old people for the predecessors."
"Let's go." The old man waved his hand. "Remember, don't bother her."
Duan Baiyue turned and left, but did not return to the inn, but Zema all the way out of the city.
The two were so close, he obviously would not fully believe the old man. But the other party can recognize that his sabre is a mysterious cold iron at a glance, and the identity should not be simple. Maybe it can really solve the secret of burning stars.
With this in mind, the deal will be done anyway.
Fuming Village is not far from Yunde City, and the Fire Cloud Lion is a peerless good. The genius is bright, and Duan Baiyue has already arrived at the entrance to the village. A few younger generations are like just getting out of the mountain, holding a few pheasants in their hands, and they are talking and laughing.
"Several little brothers." Duan Baiyue said, "Can you ask, can there be a person named Feng Gu in this village?"
"There are some, the family in front, the smoke in the chimney is going out." One of them said with a smile, "Do you come to buy his family's sugar?"
Duan Baiyue smiled.
"It’s really good business, so I have a guest at the door so early." The afterlife was quite envious, and said, "Also, after a while, the outside store will come to receive the goods. Then I want to buy more. Huanyin went to the city. Fenggu’s sugar is delicious, and the outsiders are willing to pay twice the price.”
It turned out to be a family of people who make sugar. After Duan Baiyue passed the thank-you, he went to the house and knocked on the door. The dog in the yard yelled, and then the owner yelled, the wooden door opened, and a gray-haired old woman saw Duan Baiyue. Doubt: "This son is someone who is looking for my family?"
Duan Baiyue said: "Through this place, I heard that my family's sugar is doing well. My wife-in-law likes to eat, so let's take a look. I don't know if my mother-in-law is Fenggu?"
"It's me." The old woman laughed. "The original sugar was collected by the shops in the city. I am not allowed to sell it to other people. If the son wants to give it to his wife, it would be fine to take two or three bags. There is no need to pay for the silver, nor is it worth the food."
“Thank you for your mother-in-law.” Duan Baiyue said, “Have a night out, can you come in and ask for a glass of water?”
The old woman nodded and asked him to sit in the courtyard and greet the shopkeeper to say hello.
"It’s still the first time to have a guest door in the morning." From the backyard, a red-faced old man, with his bare-headed hair, was white, and the laughter was very hearty. "I just got this syrup, the son wants to buy sugar, I’m afraid I have to wait." An hour is coming."
