Chapter 35
This episode did not bother Bai Fu for too long.

She walked smoothly for the rest of the journey, and arrived at the most prosperous town in Raozhou five days later--
Bailu Town.

From a distance, I can see the towering city gate and the crowd waiting in line at the gate to enter the city--
Those who ride donkeys, those who carry loads, those who push carts, those who pull goods, the crooked old man, the strong man with a loud voice, and the crying and laughing children.
Seeing this scene, Bai Fu had the real feeling of entering a prosperous place.

"Xiao Liang, I think I like this place a little bit." Bai Fu looked not far away and said with emotion.

She just likes places full of people and buzz.

Most of Xiao Liang's body was stretched out of the window, his expression was more joyful than Bai Fu's, "Xiao Bai, look quickly, there is the charcoal seller you mentioned!"

Bai Fu looked along Xiao Liang's point, and saw a dark and thin old man dragging a cart of dark things in line.

"Yes, that is the charcoal seller." Bai Fu smiled.

On the way, Xiao Liang saw a bare mountain, and once asked Bai Fu why the mountain was bald, and Bai Fu told him a poem by a charcoal seller, telling him that all the trees on the mountain were cut down and sold as charcoal.

In Taohuawu, firewood is always chopped and burned. Xiao Liang has never seen black charcoal being sold. He thinks it is very fresh, but he is a little worried.

"Xiaobai, will the trees in Taohuawu be chopped down in the future?"

Bai Fu was taken aback by the question.

She really didn't think about this question, "I won't for the time being."

Along the way, Raozhou is indeed a bit serious, but the situation is much better after leaving Raozhou.

"But it will be sooner or later." Xiao Liang sighed, "I hope this day will come later."

He couldn't imagine what Taohuawu would look like without trees.

Bai Fu patted his head, "Let's go, let's go to the city!"

Several people were full of anticipation and waited in line to enter the city, but they didn't want to experience the first setback at the city gate——
They have no household registration.

That is the ancient ID card.

After being stopped, Bai Fu was a little confused.

No one mentioned the need to check this thing in the places I walked before. She looked up at the majestic "Bailu Town" above the city gate, and she suddenly understood.

That's right, presumably only this kind of bustling city needs such active management. The previous ones were at most small villages and towns, so it didn't take a lot of effort.

After queuing for an hour, Bai Fu was unwilling to be blocked from the door, so he looked left and right, calmly took out a bunch of copper coins from his cuff, and stuffed them into the palm of the city guard.

"Brother, do me a favor."

She pointed to Bagh, who had an obviously foreign appearance behind him, "We came all the way from another place, and we don't know the rules here, so please be accommodating."

The little city guard raised his eyes to look at Bai Fu and his party, and the hand holding the money was retracted into his sleeve extremely silky, obviously it was not achieved in a day or two.

Seeing this, Bai Fu felt relieved, there was something going on.

Soon, the little city guard stuffed a note into Bai Fu's hand, and at the same time shouted loudly to let it go.

Bai Fu suppressed the confusion in his heart, and hurriedly took Xiao Liangbag into the city, and only after walking a certain distance did he open the note to read.

There is an address and name written on it, the key is the last four words: apply for household registration.

Bai Fu laughed out loud.

Dare to apply for a certificate is also a business with a long history.

Since it was the road pointed by the elder brother of the city guard, it must be reliable to have this way, so Bai Fu decided to take a look after dinner.

After eating, Bai Fu went to the pawn shop first, and pawned some of the jewelry brought out from Taohuawu. Sure enough, as Mr. Qin said, the jewelry was not of high grade, and the pawn shop lowered the price. In the end, he only got 100 taels of silver.

When Bai Fu came out of the pawn shop carrying the cloth bag, he still felt a little unreal, and wanted to cry but had no tears.

100 taels of silver, that is, one hundred guan, one hundred thousand copper plates.

What can one hundred thousand copper plates do in this dynasty?
Hiring a donkey cart is [-] copper coins a day, and staying in a hotel is [-] copper coins a day in a medium-sized room. The meal for three of them at noon is a bit extravagant. In addition, Bage eats a lot, so it costs [-] copper coins, and a bowl of mutton noodles on the street costs [-] copper coins.
Bai Fu roughly estimated that the three of them basically spent four to five hundred copper coins a day, not counting shopping.

This Raozhou is worthy of being a small yuan capital, and the prices are really high.

100 taels of silver is only enough for them to toss for half a year.

Don't think about the house, Bai Fu looked all the way, and the houses in the town are at least [-] guan, and she is still [-] guan.

"Be rich and rich, and now it has become my first small goal!"

Bai Fu stood at the door of the pawn shop, with his hips on his hips and boldly swore an oath.

"Xiaobai will give you all these"

Xiao Liang handed over a box, blinking his eyes, "My mother gave it to me before going out."

Bai Fu opened it to see that it was also jewelry, and there were gold ones, which seemed to be quite old.

She closes the box.

"These are your mother's dowry, so don't waste it. I'll keep it for you first, and I'll give it to you when I go back."

"My mother said it's okay to use it up."

Xiao Liang was afraid that Bai Fu would not be willing to spend the flowers, so he hurriedly explained.

"It's not a question of whether it's okay or not." Bai Fu put the box into the package and patted it, "Don't worry, am I afraid that I won't have money if I follow my sister?"

Xiao Liang smiled and hummed, "Not afraid!"

Are you not afraid?Bug looked at the bags of goods on the bullock cart out of the corner of his eyes, with a hint of confusion on his face--
Why not?
Is it really based on these things?
Is it possible that these are worth more than those jewels?

In the next few days, Bai Fu was not in a hurry to settle down, but took Bag Xiaoliang to play around, so as to gain an in-depth understanding of the business situation of this bustling city.

Bailu Town is located in the northwest of Daye Country, with frequent business transactions, foreign businessmen from the Western Regions and the north can often be seen on the street.

The street was bustling with people hawking with various accents. Bai Fu looked at each one and found that there were quite a few rare goods.

The key is that such a multicultural atmosphere makes people feel very open, and the appearance of mixed races like Xiaoliang and Bagh will not be too eye-catching.

After a few days, the three of them were quite satisfied, so they started looking for a dental office to look at the house.

In the end, Bai Fu decided to rent a simple small courtyard in Nancheng with a monthly rent of five taels of silver, with four rooms and a small shop in front.

This shop originally sold fruits and vegetables, but it was closed due to mismanagement. On the left is Jiatang’s preserved fruit, and on the right is Granny Cao’s bean cake.

Most of this street sells food, and the location of Bai Fu's shop is not very good, it is near the end of the street, and there is a diversion alley not far away, so there is not much traffic.

"Young master, don't worry, this is definitely a good shop for making money."

Shen Sanjin smiled and said auspicious words while ordering the cash register.

This Shen Sanjin was the witness recommended on the note given by the city guard.

Full of vigilance, Bai Fu went to have a look, and found that it was actually a regular shop with a wide range of business, needless to say to get a certificate, and when she heard that she wanted to rent a house, the shop immediately arranged for a house inspection. The efficiency and service were not impressive.

Bai Fu bowed his hands in salute.

"I accept your words."

She stuffed some silver coins over, "I invite you to have tea with this one, and I will ask Brother Sanjin to take care of you in Bailu Town in the future."

Shen Sanjin looked shrewd, and he seemed to be a well-connected person, thinking that if he lived permanently, he must establish a good relationship.

Shen Sanjin collected the tea money with a smile, said a few more auspicious words and left.
