Xuzhou had five prefectures: Xiapi Prefecture, Guangling Prefecture, Donghai Prefecture, Pengcheng Prefecture, and Langya Prefecture.
Langya County was located in the north of Xu Prefecture. It bordered Qingzhou in the north, Yanzhou in the west, and a vast coastline in the east.
In ancient times, having one's back against the sea did not mean that one was rich. On the contrary, one would be very poor.
Langya County was considered the poorest county in Xu Prefecture.
Qin Wen set off early in the morning and arrived at Taiping County. He took the teleportation array and instantly arrived at Kaiyang City, the administrative office of Langya County.
The city walls of Mizar City were thick and simple. They were more than 30 meters tall and their length could not be seen at a glance. They were like a giant beast crawling on the ground.
However, because it was close to the sea, the city wall was eroded by the sea breeze and there was no money to repair it.
Qin Wen stood outside the city with a burning gaze.
"My lord, what are you looking at?" Li Guang stood at the side, carrying a large sack on his back.
This time, Qin Wen only brought Li Guang with him.
Because of Zhang San's personality, he was left behind to protect the village in case there was any trouble.
Hearing Li Guang's question, Qin Wen glanced at the soldiers guarding the city gate and shook his head.
"Nothing. Let's go in."
He wanted to say a few bold words, but there were too many people here. As soon as he said those words, he would probably end up in jail.
Li Guang didn't ask further. He carried the sack and followed behind Qin Wen. However, he didn't notice that a corner of the sack had turned red and a drop of blood had dripped out.
The soldiers guarding the city were alert and raised their spears.
"Stop, what's in the sack?”
Li Guang did not even frown when he was pointed at by more than ten spears. He only looked at his lord.
Qin Wen nodded and asked Li Guang to open the bag.
Li Guang did not hesitate. He opened the sack and showed the contents to the soldiers.
A few soldiers stepped forward and looked into the bag.

Gasps sounded one after another.
Inside the sack were two tiger skins and some bones. The blood on them had not dried yet. Clearly, these two big insects had died not long ago.
The soldiers changed their attitude and were filled with respect.
"Two warriors can actually kill a big insect, I apologize for my disrespect.”
The commoners who were entering the city immediately pricked up their ears.
"What is it? Big insect? Did I hear wrongly?"
"It should be right. Look at that person wearing a tiger skin coat. He must have killed the big insect.”
"So powerful, that's a big insect.?”
"Is that the big bug in the sack? I've never seen a big worm in my life.”
The commoners did not mind the commotion. They surrounded the city gate and quickly blocked it.
"What are you doing? Disperse!"
The soldiers guarding the city shouted.
The effect was limited. The curiosity of the people did not disappear. Instead, it became even more crowded.
The soldier was helpless. He said to Qin Wen," You guys go in quickly. If you want to sell the big worm, you can go to the East Market. There are more merchants there."”
"Thank you."
Qin Wen thanked him and passed through the city gate.
Li Guang closed the sack, threw it over his shoulder, and easily followed behind.
Behind him.
A few soldiers whispered to each other.
"Amazing! This sack is at least 500 jin."
"Langya County has a tiger hero. Us soldiers also have face.”
" I almost forgot if you didn't mention it. Such a big matter has to be reported to the county governor…"
Qin Wen didn't know what the soldiers were talking about, so he made his way to East City without any obstacles.
In ancient times, the eastern market was often the most prosperous commercial area in a city.
Even though Langya County was not rich, Kaiyang City was a county city. Its eastern market was also very lively.
Qin Wen found an empty space and ordered Li Guang to open the sack. He took out the tiger skin and started shouting.
" I'm just passing by. Don't miss out on the good tiger skin, fresh tiger bones, and tiger meat…"
The tiger skin in his hand quickly attracted a large number of passers-by to stop and surround him.
"How much is this tiger skin?"
A wealthy businessman stood out.
"Five hundred gold taels!" Qin Wen replied without hesitation.”
The fat on the merchant's face trembled, and his voice became sharp.
"You dare to sell a piece of tiger skin for five hundred gold taels? I think you've gone crazy thinking about money.”
Qin Wen raised his eyebrows." If you want it, then buy it. If you don't want it, then leave. Don't get in the way here."”
A person with a real family background would never have such an attitude when he heard five hundred taels. The other party clearly could not afford it.
Qin Wen wouldn't be polite to those who couldn't afford it and still wanted to cause trouble.
The plump merchant's round face was flushed red, and the fat on his face was trembling.
Noticing Li Guang in the tiger skin, the wealthy businessman did not dare to flare up and left dejectedly.
With the previous example, those who couldn't afford it wouldn't come out to ask questions and point at the tiger skin.
For a moment, there was a moment of silence.
At this moment, the crowd was separated. A man in embroidered clothes entered under the protection of the guards.
The man first looked at the tiger skin, and a hint of joy flashed across his eyes. He immediately asked,
"How much are these two tiger skins?"
"A thousand gold taels?" Qin Wen narrowed his eyes.”
"Two pieces of 1,000 gold coins. That's not expensive."”
"A thousand gold coins each." Qin Wen shook his head.”
The guard beside the man was furious.
"How dare you! You only sold it for 500 gold taels just now, but now you're selling it for 1000 gold taels!”
" You insulted my lord. You deserve to die!"
Li Guang's movements were even faster. He took out his bow, nocked an arrow, and pulled the bow in one go.
Once the lord gave the order, he would release the bowstring and take the guard's life.
