Su Cai'er didn't know what those people meant by "fangui lao".

But since her husband asked her, she thought she had to give herself some insights.

After this, when I go to the capital, if the neighbors or the ladies of my husband's classmates ask me about what happened on the road, I will have something new to say.

So, the young couple sent someone to take their luggage to the inn to settle down, and Zhao Ce directly took Su Caier and followed the flow of people to the port.

Cargo ships from foreign countries are not always available. Even in their port, there is probably not one seen all year round.

Therefore, many people from the provincial government rushed over to watch the excitement.

The port is on the other side of the city. When we got there, we saw a sea of ​​people around.

"You just put on that blond one, did you see it? Ouch, it looks so weird!"

"Yes, there are those dark-skinned ones over there, and they look different from us."

"I heard before that these ghost guys look different from us. Only when I saw them today did I realize that they look like this."

"..."

Zhao Ce stood in the crowd and could barely see the heads in front of him, but Su Cai'er was immediately submerged in it.

Fortunately, the weather is quite cold now, otherwise I would have been squeezed and suffocated.

Zhao Ce looked at the flow of people and thought that if he could open a shop, the business would be easy.

Fortunately, the chaos did not last long, and soon people were sent to the pier to maintain order.

Some dignitaries who wanted to go to the front to select goods came forward with their servants.

Zhao Ce also pulled Su Caier over.

The people maintaining order saw the two people wearing silk clothes and did not stop them, but let them enter the dock directly.

There are boxes all over the floor with a lot of things on them.

Zhao Ce glanced at it casually, feeling a little uninterested.

They are all ordinary glass products and seafood products.

Su Cai'er was very interested, her big eyes kept turning, and she was extremely surprised when she saw these things that she had never seen before.

Zhao Ce let go of her hand and said with a smile: "Let's see if there is anything we can use. Can we buy some?"

Su Cai'er nodded and didn't go far. She knelt down next to Zhao Ce and watched carefully.

After a few glances, he looked up at the husband next to him.

Zhao Ce saw that there was nothing he wanted to buy here, so he walked a little further to the side.

A middle-aged man dressed elegantly and holding a big finger ring in his hand came over and said with a smile: "What is this young man looking for? I can ask someone to help you find it."

Zhao Ce took a casual look and said, "Look for something more novel. These are too ordinary."

The merchant's surname was Wu. He looked at Zhao Ce. Although the material of his clothes was not the best, it was not bad either.

In addition, this man has a handsome face and his skin is not as rough as ordinary people. It is estimated that Zhao Ce's family is not short of money.

The merchant surnamed Wu said enthusiastically: "How about this glazed lamp? It's colorful. I'm sure your little lady will like it if I give it to you."

Zhao Ce took a look and thought it was okay.

However, as a modern man, he is still interested in the antiques of his own country and is not very interested in other things.

"Well, it's okay."

Master Wu saw that Zhao Ce didn't like him very much, and he wasn't angry either.

He handed the glass cup in his hand to the servant behind him and said, "How about the spices?"

"A lot of spices have been shipped here this time. If you like it, Master, I can have someone find you what you want?"

Only then did Zhao Ce become more interested, and he pulled Su Cai'er who was beside him and followed the businessman inside.

It wasn't until we reached the deck of the ship that we saw the smuggled spices.

Nowadays, spices are basically sent as tribute to the imperial court.

What is available to the public is bought from smugglers.

Pepper, as well as fennel, cinnamon, patchouli, clove, sandalwood, etc.

Whatever Zhao Ce recognized or didn't recognize, he bought some.

There were also many wealthy people buying goods nearby, and everyone was trading spices.

After buying it like this, after packing it, a bag of individually packed spices weighed about twenty or thirty kilograms, and ended up spending more than forty taels of silver.

When Su Cai'er paid, she took out the money with some pain.

Mr. Wu looked at Su Cai'er's appearance and said cheerfully: "These spices are indeed not cheap."

After all, they need a lot of money to establish a relationship.

"By the way, there are some cheap spices over there, you can go and have a look."

The merchant saw the two people buying spices and took them to another narrower deck.

No one from Class A came here, only some busy crew members.

But before he got closer, a gust of wind blew by, and Zhao Ce's nose faintly smelled a different smell.

This taste...

Zhao Ce smelled the faint smell of gunpowder in the air and glanced at the leading merchant again.

This boat has no markings, and its style is no different from the surrounding boats. It is probably a boat bought from them.

So Zhao Ce couldn't tell which country it came from.

According to his memory, at this time, there were only a few Western countries that had the ability to come here.

And basically, other than doing business, I didn’t come here with any good intentions...

"Sir, does this ship belong to you?"

The merchant waved his hand and said, "Of course not."

"My family has cooperated with these ghost guys before. This time I bought a batch of goods with them to sell to everyone."

Zhao Ce smiled and took the opportunity to talk to the merchant again.

He had been living in a remote city before, and even though he had some knowledge of history, it was of no use.

After all, not many people can study their local county chronicles too deeply.

What we generally know is just the general direction of history.

Behind Su Caier, Aunt Chen was holding a large bag of spices and following her.

Su Cai'er turned her head and looked at the deep water outside the deck, then quickly looked back.

This ship was different from any they had ever been on. She had never seen such a big ship before.

Seeing Zhao Ce chatting and laughing with Yuan Wailang next to her, Su Cai'er always felt that her husband was so awesome!

It seems that no matter who he is with, my husband can always get along with them quickly.

Su Cai'er looked around and saw a man on the upper floor of the boat who was about the same height as her husband but whose appearance was completely different from them. He seemed to be holding something in his hand and looking into the distance.

This person was watching so intently that he didn't even notice Su Cai'er underneath.

Just as he was looking at that person in confusion, the people in class A suddenly started making a noise.

"You're such a profiteer, what you're selling us is actually poison. After my family members ate your poison, their lips became red and swollen."

There were curses below, and those who were selecting goods stopped and looked at them curiously.
