Survival rules for restaurants: cooking and eating melons at the same time

Chapter 350: The Young Prince of Liguo

The result, of course, was that the secret guards captured everyone, but these people looked very cowardly, and each one was more difficult to torture than the other.

Including the shop assistants and this group of people, a total of more than 30 people were tied up.

But they all didn't know the answers to any of the questions. I didn't know if they were deliberately keeping silent or for some other reason.

In short, Gu Qingyun did not get the answer he wanted. The group of people glared at Gu Qingyun ferociously and insisted that he was only a human trafficker, without saying anything else.

The gangster who ran away in a hurry refused to say a word, and it seemed that all his usual tricks were useless.

Come to think of it, he has two tattoos on his face. Prisoners like this are usually not taken seriously even by the prison guards.

I don't know how long the interrogation lasted. When we were interrogating together, no one wanted to speak. After we separated, I got some random answers.

Basically useless.

……

Apart from that one time, no further clues were heard.

Zhang Qiu even felt that Gu Qingyun was too nervous and took everything as a clue, and Gu Qingyun was too lazy to explain.

To this day he is still thinking about the answers those people gave him. Among them, there were one or two who let slip that they had all been sold to brothels, so what was the problem if they sold them to other countries?

He spoke so righteously that Gu Qingyun thought he had misheard.

One or two of them spoke frankly and said that they were only engaged in the human trafficking business. The boss was the one who divided the money among them. He was responsible for deciding which people to sell and where to sell them. They were only responsible for bringing them to this post station.

These 30-odd people were all packed up by Gu Qingyun and sent back to Kyoto Prefecture. Zhao Huaiqing and Wu Huan were dumbfounded when they saw the 30-odd people.

Although they did not have to travel thousands of miles to Ubang, the burden on them was not reduced at all.

……

After a few more days, heading west from the nomadic tribe, we found a section of the territory of the Dayan Dynasty.

But because the terrain in the middle is too high, if they turn over from here, the journey will probably have to be extended by another 15 days, and the danger level will be even higher, so Gu Qingyun and others chose to pass through the nomadic people's territory.

Although they are sometimes unkind, they are not that warlike either.

At this time, the group had just entered Wuji City, a special city-state located at the junction of three countries.

This was called Xizhou Prefecture during the Dayan Dynasty, meaning the southwesternmost tip of the Dayan Dynasty.

Just after entering Wuji City, Gu Qingyun led a few people forward. This place was really lively. There were all kinds of people: tall, short, fat, thin, bearded, slender, handsome, wearing animal skins...

Gu Qingyun found a restaurant and went in. As expected, there were many foreigners in this place. There was a dock in the city, which was a place where merchants from all over the world settled.

"Shaoqing, there's no need to be so nervous." Zhang Qiu watched Gu Qingyun habitually check out every place he went.

Especially when they went to places where many Gentiles gathered, they all pricked up their ears and listened, some of them speechless.

Is it necessary to be so nervous? Could this clue be revealed by someone on the street?

Zhangqiu has a fixed mindset and always feels that only by going to a place and finding people can one get clues.

But Gu Qingyun managed to hear a lot of information just by visiting the place and listening.

For example, some businessmen always talk about the beauties in their country intentionally or unintentionally, such as which girl is as beautiful as a flower, or which girl in which building has a graceful figure.

Of course, no matter which country they are from, they all have one common feature.

In recent years, I have been able to see many beautiful ladies from the Dayan Dynasty in my own country.

Sometimes you can even hear their vulgar jokes, saying that the women of the Dayan Dynasty were more charming.

Honghu Temple usually deals with exchanges with foreign countries, so the reaction was not that drastic. After all, even Wubang, which was not very compatible with their Dayan Dynasty, was more moderate at the negotiation table.

Many countries think that it is unbecoming to quarrel at the negotiation table, and if they want to quarrel, they have to leave the table and continue quarreling.

Therefore, the Honglu Temple was very tolerant of these behaviors.

Several people were eating and drinking in a restaurant run by a foreign merchant. They were surrounded by bearded foreigners. Occasionally, there were a few people wearing gold and silver, and they could be seen at a glance that they were from the foreign country.

However, in this world, most of the horse traders are still the bearded Hu people and Wubang people.

As for leaving the country, they are more involved in shipping business, so you can always see them in state capitals with docks.

"Little brother, where are you from!?"

A drunken Li countryman hugged Zhang Qiu and said, "Don't say anything. Let me guess. You should be from the Dayan Dynasty. It's really not easy to see people from the Dayan Dynasty in this area!"

Gu Qingyun frowned slightly. Is it that obvious?

Moreover, this place is the junction of three countries. The north is controlled by the Dayan Dynasty, the west is the territory of Wubang, and the southeast is the area of ​​nomadic peoples.

"What's so strange about this? We are merchants from the Dayan Dynasty. We go to Wubang to buy some popular furs and save them for winter." Gu Qingyun pretended to be mysterious. It was obvious at first glance that this man was from the Li Kingdom. The light boots, thin gown, gold belt, gold necklace, and gold hairpin all highlighted his wealth and nobility.

"It's only summer now, not the Far North where the winter is terribly cold. You'd better import some popular furs so that they can be sold better." The young master was not shy at all and sat down next to Gu Qingyun.

"We are doing some small business, and it is very remarkable to be able to get these Wubang furs." After saying this, Gu Qingyun looked around and pretended to be nervous, "Young Master, I won't hide it from you... Our Dayan Dynasty and Wubang have been in full swing for many years, and our Dayan Dynasty furs are not easy to sell. If you buy them today, you won't be able to sell them tomorrow... I dare not say that I am from Dayan Dynasty. It was not easy to find someone to make these customs documents. I tell you this because I see that you are a righteous person. I don't want to cause trouble. Please help us, young master. We are just making a little money and selling some furs."

The young man frowned, "So which country are you pretending to be merchants from?"

Gu Qingyun remained expressionless. The clearance document disc said "Li Guo". Wasn't that a coincidence?

After all, Dayan Dynasty and Li Kingdom are the two most similar countries.

Apart from this, people from other places are either tall and strong or have obvious features on their faces, so if they want to pretend, they can only pretend to be from another country.

When the young master saw Gu Qingyun was stunned, he laughed and took another big sip of wine, "I know, it must be us from Li Country, otherwise where would you find so many bearded men, hahahahahahahaha."
