Chapter 1226: Not a Friend
Ogedei was very curious about the two teenagers calling him ’brother’. Moreover, he had doubts about the identities of the two youths, so he was happy to talk to them to obtain more information. "Since I’m much older than the two of you, you can call me Uncle Naji if you don’t mind. I’m surprised you two are able to go out and do business at such a young age. There are indeed many talents in the Central Plains."
"This is also our first time going on a long trip. We were ordered to come out and gain some experience." Little Treasure changed the topic. "Since Uncle Naji came from the grassland, you must have brought a lot of fur and medicinal herbs. I wonder if you plan to sell your goods in this town or continue south?"
It was a little rude to ask such a question during their first conversation, but because Little Treasure came across as open-minded and magnanimous, Ogedei laughed and replied loudly, "Good kid, I like chatting with straightforward people like you. I’m going to transport my goods to the south. I heard that one can exchange fur and herbs for more tea leaves and satin over there."
Little Treasure felt a little regretful. "I thought I could get some goods from Uncle. My brother and I still lack some goods."
Ogedei said meaningfully, "There’s no lack of fur and medicinal herbs here. As long as Young Master is patient, I’m sure you’ll acquire enough."
Little Bear asked curiously, "People of Great Yuan can also go to the south of Great Qi?"
Ogedei’s eyes darkened, but nonetheless, he said with a smile, "As long as one can get a road pass from the government office."
Little Treasure and Little Bear looked at him enviously. "Seems like you’ll definitely earn a lot of money from this trip to the south. The fur and herbs in the south are not cheap over there."
But the question was, who had given them the road pass?
Little Treasure and Little Bear looked at each other and decided to ask Yuan Qing to investigate properly when they returned. Fortunately, they had informed Yuan Qing this time. Otherwise, they would have no way to investigate such things at all. After all, they were outsiders and didn’t even know the people in power in this town.
