Chapter 106 - The Businessmen from a Faraway Land (3)
Ji Fengyan was not in a rush as she leisurely stood at the end of the queue and observed the group of businessmen.
The common people who were standing in front of Ji Fengyan did not notice her initially. After some time, they started to look around impatiently, and when they realised Ji Fengyan and Yang Jian behind them, they trembled so much from shock.
“City Lord… Master… You… You… Why are you here?” the common people who were scared out of their wits had sheet-white faces as they looked at Ji Fengyan and Yang Jian. Each of them had an almost crying expression.
“To join in the fun,” Ji Fengyan said casually.
Those people almost cried out in fear. God knows how much fear Ji Fengyan and Yang Jian had left in the people after they had witnessed how Lei Xu died under their hands. Even though everyone knew that the new City Lord was young, none of them dared to look down upon Ji Fengyan.
Who was so daring to queue in front of the City Lord?
Very quickly, some sensible people secretly moved from the queue that Ji Fengyan was in to the end of the line. They would rather queue from the start than to obstruct Ji Fengyan.
Seeing the queue in front of them becoming shorter but the surrounding queue becoming longer, Ji Fengyan frowned uncontrollably.
“Uh… Master, wait for a while. I am having a stomachache now.” The person in front of Ji Fengyan awkwardly hugged his stomach and quickly ran to another queue.
After a short time, Ji Fengyan, who was originally standing at the end of the queue, was already at the front and behind her, there was no one queuing at all.
“…” She felt that these people might have misunderstood something.
Ji Fengyan suddenly realised that she had become a ‘tyrant’ to everyone.
The two men clad in black at the horse carriage, where Ji Fengyan was queuing at, were also perplexed about the strange situation. The queue was still very long just now, but there were only four people remaining now, and they seemed to be in a group.
“May I know what you guys are selling?” Those two men clad in black returned to normal very fast and started to ask. Their gaze naturally landed on the unattractive young girl in front of them.
Ji Fengyan smiled as she looked at these two ‘businessmen,’ who were dressed weirdly, and she said, “I have heard that you guys take in rare ores and they are not limited to just exchanging for gold coins. I don’t need money but I just wish to know that other than gold coins, what else can I exchange for.”
After Ji Fengyan said this, not only were the two businessmen stunned, even Linghe who was standing beside her was dumbfounded.
Not in need of money?
Did their Miss misunderstand something?!
Wasn’t their purpose here for money?
Linghe’s face almost crumbled in that instant.
The two businessmen sized up Ji Fengyan. The young girl before them was skinny and her clothes did not seem to be expensive. When she spoke, her smiling eyes were very beautiful, yet it did not seem to match her unattractive face.
“This Miss, you can exchange for many things here, but according to our rules, we can show you the items you can exchange for only after we see your items, so please take out the ores you are selling,” the black-robed businessman said plainly.
