Zhao Rong and his two companions took a taxi and soon arrived at the Xijing City market. It was a vast and incredibly complex place. Standing at the entrance, the trio had no idea where to go.
The assistant stopped an elderly woman selling vegetables and asked, "Excuse me, ma'am. Could you tell us if there's a basement somewhere in this market?"
The woman, carrying a shoulder pole with two baskets of vegetables, looked confused. "Although I've been selling vegetables here for over a decade, I really don't know where a basement would be..."
Hearing this, the group continued forward. Soon, they came across an old man selling shrimp.
Xuelian approached him and asked, "Sir, do you know if there are any unused or vacant warehouses around here?"
The old man jumped, startled by Xuelian's question.
