?Chapter 227: 227 The Big Fish Hasn’t Taken the Bait Yet (Second Update) Chapter 227: 227 The Big Fish Hasn’t Taken the Bait Yet (Second Update) The small stall Li Xianyun set up was attracting more and more people, causing quite a sensation, so much so that even the officials in charge of the Border Market came to see what the fuss was about.
Li Xianyun glanced seemingly inadvertently towards a Liang Country shop not far away, where someone was watching from a second-floor window.
Only a sliver of the window was open, making it impossible to see clearly who was inside.
Her stall was doing brisk business, and soon, the apricot and peach preserves were sold out.
By the time she arrived in Tianshui County, Li Xianyun had made thorough preparations, bringing a lot of candied fruits, all sealed in large porcelain jars and stored inside the mansion.
After selling out her goods, Li Xianyun wandered around the Border Market with Youlan and Zhuo Ma, purchasing quite a few novelties.
She planned to take them back to Shangjing as presents for Yaduo.
When the group arrived at the checkpoint ready to leave, a customary inspection was required, and just so happened that Little Huzi and the official in charge of the Border Market were there as well.
Li Xianyun spoke as if offhandedly, “The Border Market here is very well established. It seems that all of Official Ma’s hard work hasn’t been in vain, but the cost of setting up a stall is too expensive. A small stall on the east side even requires a rent of five Silver, which not everyone can afford.”
Upon hearing this, Little Huzi sensed trouble and quickly stepped forward, saying to the inspecting soldiers, “Have you finished the inspection? If there are no issues, let them leave quickly.”
Hearing the commotion, the official in charge came over and said, “Hold on.”
Little Huzi had no choice but to step aside and remain silent, but he warned Li Xianyun with his eyes, as if to say, “Pretty boy, if you dare spout nonsense, I’ll make life difficult for you.”
Li Xianyun looked at Little Huzi and smiled, “Are your eyes uncomfortable, sir? Staring with such wide eyes is rather odd.”
