At midnight, bidding farewell to Duan Changzai, Lu Zheng returned to the inn alone, organized all the items he had purchased during the day, and then went to sleep.
The night passed without incident.
Early the next morning, Lu Zheng did not leave the city immediately but first went to the Zhenji Pawnshop in the east of the city. According to Duan Changzai, this pawnshop was an established one in Yizhou Prefecture, known for fair prices, honest dealings, and a good reputation.
However, for a business involving thousands of coins, Lu Zheng still spent nearly an hour at the pawnshop, not leaving the city until close to noon.
Speaking of which, this trip to Yizhou City was quite fruitful. Aside from selling an ornament, the most important gain was meeting more cultivators.
