Chapter 23 Agricultural Trade Market

Zhou Wulang and Zhou Liulang felt the carrying baskets on their backs were especially heavy.

Zhou Erlang was more clever and immediately took a small bamboo basket out of Wulang's carrying basket, gritted his teeth, filled it with five eggs, and said, "Young man, it's been a long time since we last visited the county city, and we honestly didn't know the rules for entering the city had changed. We farmers don't have any cash; we only came to the city to make some because our elderly at home need medicine. We hope you can be accommodating."

The guard had never seen such a small bamboo basket before and looked at it curiously. When he saw the eggs inside, he glanced around, took the basket, and said, "Alright, I'll cover your entry fee."

After saying this, he took a coin from his pocket, threw it into the plate, and gestured for them to enter.
