"I've called you two here because there's something I need to assign to you..."
Tang He rushed towards Mu Jun and exchanged a sentence with Tang Yun before turning his head to look at Tang Min who was waiting by his side.
Tang Min, Mu Jun I recognize her, she is the woman who set up a trap outside the mountain to deceive Hua Rou and send messages.
"Later you go down the mountain to purchase some things needed by the organization."
As soon as Tang Min's words fell, a look of excitement immediately appeared on Tang Yin's face: "Yes."
"Why should I go?"
Tang Min didn't answer, but instead looked at Tang He Zhi. Tang He Zhi immediately explained: "Because you and Tang Yun are both the best in my agency's house, the things needed by the agency can't be even a little bit sloppy, only with the two of you going, I can rest assured!"
Tang Min took out a porcelain bottle from her bosom and poured out two pills, handing them over to the two men.
Although a hint of annoyance flashed across Tang Yong's face, he immediately stepped forward and picked up a pill to put in his mouth.
I stared at the pill motionlessly, longing for you.
"Don't just stand there!" Tang Yu took the remaining pill and walked to Mu Junwu's side: "Although this is a poison, as long as you complete your task and return to the Tang Gate within three days, you can take the antidote and nothing will happen! Of course, if you don't come back, your intestines will rot and your corpse will be exposed in the wilderness!"
Tang Yun finished speaking and held up the medicine pill in front of Mu Junwu.
"This is a rule." Tang Min added emphasis that this was an unchangeable and inescapable rule.
Admiring you, I stretched out my hand, grabbed the dan medicine and stuffed it into my mouth, swallowing it.
Is he afraid of poison?
"Now you go change into casual clothes, and I'll take you out later."
Just as Tang Min was about to change clothes with Mu Junwu and Tang Yun, Tang Ji was curled up in his own room, frowning.
Inside the house, on the table and walls, many papers are piled up and posted, each with a person's name written on it.
Tang Jing pinched her pen and wrote a new name on the paper, placing it beside.
"Strange! Why isn't it Brother Tang Ji this time?"
The murmurs outside were gradually moving away.
"I didn't think so either."
"Could it be that Brother Tang has fallen out of favor?"
"Don't talk nonsense, Grandma has already punished you for what happened last time..."
The words after that were inaudible.
Tang Jing's face was gloomy as he continued writing, but just as he wrote a stroke, the pen holder suddenly shattered with a "crack".
……
Mo Jun and Tang Yun changed into white clothes, although they were disguised as merchants, but the two faces that were too young looked more like two apprentices who had just entered the business.
Tang Min sized up the two men and saw that there was no problem, so she handed each of them a black cloth strip and told them to cover their eyes.
Tang Yin seemed to be familiar with the process, and without hesitation, he grabbed the cloth strip and started tying it up. Mu Junwu watched as he covered his eyes well, then took the cloth strip and tied it himself. This cloth strip was not a thin layer, but a black cloth folded three times with a fixed edge, so after covering, no light or shadow could pass through.
Tang Min probed twice, confirmed that there was no mistake, and then clapped his hands. Immediately, several people came in to support them and took them out.
This walk took about a quarter of an hour.
There are uphill climbs and downhill stairs, there are turns and straight roads.
I followed you, walking and paying attention along the way, but he soon realized that there were many repeated sections on this path, because he had stepped on the same uneven stairs before, and heard the sound of water dripping onto stone multiple times.
He had lost his way and was being pulled along by them when the cloth in front of him was pulled down, he found himself standing in front of a thatched cottage with Tang Yu.
"There's money and a map inside, as well as a shopping list. Remember, you must return here before sunset tomorrow." Tang Min handed each of them a cloth bag and didn't say another word.
"Don't worry, I'll definitely be back on time." Tang Yu said with a smile, warmly inviting Mu Junwu: "Come with me!"
Tang Yun led the way forward. Mu Jun looked at Tang Min and the old man standing not far away, then followed closely behind him as he left.
After they left, the old man walked up to Tang Min with a vigorous stride: "Not yet granted a surname, how can you be sent out?"
"That's none of your business."
……
Yuzhou is a main city located at the intersection of Shu and Chu territories.
Four months of Tangmen life made Mu Junwu feel like he was in a daze from the moment he stepped into Yuzhou City.
Crowds of people, bustling and prosperous streets, crowded docks, and the constant shouting.
Those drawn-out tones have a strange and unfamiliar elegance, as well as the most ordinary and simple years.
He suddenly came to, and he thought of the dream in his heart - far away from the cold and cunning royal power and wealth, hiding in the world outside the peach garden, from now on there were no kings, nobles or aristocrats, only ordinary people in white clothes.
"What's wrong with you? Look at your country bumpkin appearance!"
Tang Yin walked out for a while and turned back to find Mu Junwu still standing by the dock, staring blankly at the sailboat on the river. He quickly went over and patted his shoulder: "Let's go! Let's go!"
I withdrew the greedy gaze from my eyes and followed behind Tang Yun, listening to his excited introduction while paying attention to everything around me.
"I was going to call you little brother... no, wait, I should be calling you... Second Brother! Second Brother!"
"Just call me Old Five."
"Come on, Old Five! I'm telling you, Old Five, this Chongqing City is the most prosperous place around here. The things we want are scattered among the three major markets in Chongqing City. The shopkeeper only gave us less than two days' time. We set out late and can't make it to the other two markets, so we can only attend tonight's night market first."
"Night market?" Mu Jun was slightly surprised.
Since the prosperous Tang Dynasty's curfew, after the evening drumbeat, each ward would lock up, and business transactions could be said to cease with the sunset. Who would have thought that he heard a new term today - night market.
"Haven't you heard?!" Seeing Mu Junwu's surprise, Tang Yun's eyebrows danced with excitement: "In Shu territory, there are many barbarians, along the river, there are four or five kinds of them. Not to mention those in the mountains, these people can't enter the East and West markets for trade, so they have to take a detour."
"Your meaning is that night markets are places where barbarians easily trade?"
"It was originally, but things are different in two cities. The taxes collected by the government are too high, so many people also come to the night market, so it's not barbaric either."
"Hey, isn't anyone in charge of the night market?"
"How can the barbarians be governed by the officials? However, whether going to sell goods or buy things, as long as they enter the market, each person must hand over a large coin!" Tang Yun took out a Tongbao and flashed it.
"Looks like it's going to be quite lively."
"Of course it's bustling, the merchants in both markets have paid taxes to the government, and the things they sell are much more expensive than those of these barbarians. It's just that the barbarians' goods are cheap, but there are also many counterfeit goods, so we need to be careful."
I nodded: "You just said that the night market also collects a copper coin, it's not collected by the government, so who is this for?"
