The border town was called Bamu Town; although it was a market place for mutual trading between Xiliao and Xiliang, it didn’t cover a large area. This was mainly because it belonged to a lawless zone, where fierce fights frequently broke out.
People without any clout wouldn’t dare to trade here; ordinary residents who came over would likely be robbed, and the unlucky ones could even lose their lives.
The local residents here were scarce; however, those who remained usually had some courage and tactics.
This time Xiao Yeyang came to buy horses, he did so by finding a local intermediary in the town.
The small town was still quite lively; Xiao Yeyang led Daohua at a steady pace, carefully observing everything about the town as he walked on the street.
On the street, there were more Xiliao people than Daxia people, and they were more active, indirectly indicating that Xiliao people were more dominant in this town. Delving deeper, one could also surmise the military weakness of Xiliang’s Commandant Office in recent years.
Xiliao people came and went freely on Daxia’s territory; if they could also oppress the local residents, what was this if not the incompetence of the Government Office?
"This place does seem a bit like a wholesale market."
Daohua commented as she observed the merchants on the street and spoke to Xiao Yeyang.
"Wholesale..." Xiao Yeyang mulled over the word before laughing, "You’re quite right."
Daohua continued, "If the Government Office took over management, this place would surely become more standardized and lively."
Xiao Yeyang agreed with Daohua’s statement, "But there’s a prerequisite, and that is that Xiliang’s army must be strong enough to intimidate Xiliao, forcing them to adhere to the rules we establish."
Daohua looked at Xiao Yeyang with a smile, "Aren’t you here? I believe that day will come."
Xiao Yeyang smiled back, his eyes twinkling with determination; since he had come to Xiliang, he had to make significant achievements.
Main Street trade was still relatively normal, but when Xiao Yeyang led Daohua into the backstreets, they were filled with a lot of illegitimate business.
Seeing the women being sold in cages, Daohua subconsciously frowned.
There were women from Xiliao, as well as from Daxia. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
