Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 1188: Chapter 402: Strong Army and Rest, South City’s Lively Atmosphere, Ji Jiang’s Romance, Walls of the Heart Gradually Lower_3

”Is it because the vast majority are from outside towns? The shops on both sides must have been set up by the Camp Supply Department, and many of those vendors are from Great Xia, but there seem to be a few from outside towns as well!”

Ji Hong has a certain keen eye; among the very few vendors, even if they are wearing summer clothes, he can quickly discern they are not from Great Xia just by observing them for a while.

Does this mean Hongmen City has already allowed people from outside towns to set up stalls for trade here?

Although the street stalls seem densely packed, a careful observer would notice that these stalls are spaced every three meters along the street, maintaining a two-meter distance from the shop fronts, with each stall spaced one meter apart, thus separating the stalls and leaving a pathway for pedestrians;

Furthermore, a yellow line is drawn in front of the stalls on both sides, and all the tables and items for sale are within the yellow line boundaries, with the space between the two yellow lines roughly six meters apart, clearly intended for pedestrian traffic.

”Guess who I am?”

Suddenly, two cold little hands cover his eyes, making Ji Hong frown sharply, but upon hearing that extremely familiar, delightful voice, his brow quickly relaxes, he turns swiftly to look behind him, his face full of surprise and delight.

”Ah Jiang, you really came to Hongmen too!”

The person covering his eyes is a girl dressed in a bright yellow summer dress, her face charming and delicate, not yet twenty years old, with particularly bright and lively eyes, and if you look closely, you would find that her features bear a three-point resemblance to Ji Hong.

”Brother, you didn’t expect this, did you? I was transferred to Hongmen City back in August!”

Ji Jiang spoke crisply, directly linking her arm around Ji Hong’s, her face full of a playful smile, but then she thought of something, blinked her eyes and continued, ”Brother, did you miss me?”

”Of course, I did!”

Upon hearing this question, Ji Hong answered without hesitation.

Since their parents died in the disaster brought by the Wood Puppet Monster ten years ago, the two of them have always relied on each other, the bond between brother and sister goes without saying.

Upon hearing the answer, Ji Jiang’s face immediately showed a satisfied smile, but her eyes turned, and with a mischievous look continued to ask, ”Besides missing me, did you miss anyone else?”

Ji Hong’s expression froze, he immediately leaned to look behind Ji Jiang.

Ji Jiang exaggeratedly moved her body to block Ji Hong’s view, clearly hiding someone behind her.

”Brother, don’t cheat, you must answer the question first.”

”Come on, come on, did you miss anyone else?”

”You’re cheating!”

Ji Jiang couldn’t win in the end, and Ji Hong directly pulled her away.

It turned out that not far behind her stood another woman in her early twenties, with fair skin and a gentle face dressed in a blue dress.

The blue-clad woman’s face was blushing deeply at Ji Jiang’s teasing, coincidentally meeting Ji Hong’s gaze, and the blush spread to her ears.

”Xiao Rou, you came too?”

”Brother Ji, you forgot, I was transferred to the Treasure Tower back in July.”

Ji Hong blushed deeply, remembering that Zeng Rou had mentioned it deliberately when she was transferred to the Treasure Tower in July.

”Brother, Sister Xiao Rou is really impressive, she was just promoted to Intermediate Officer at the Treasure Tower and now has three subordinates!”

”Ah Jiang, don’t talk nonsense...”

Compared to the lively and playful Ji Jiang, Zeng Rou is gentle as her name suggests, her temperament soft as water, her voice in rebuke is very soft, lacking any real impact.

However, Ji Jiang respected her very much, and upon hearing her speak, she immediately shut her mouth, then pulled her brother Ji Hong with a mischievous smile, and headed towards a nearby summer clothing store.

”Brother, I am the shopkeeper of this summer clothes store now, so you must come by often and support my business!”

As they reached the entrance, Ji Hong looked curious as he heard Ji Jiang say she was the shopkeeper of this store, and then lifted his eyes to the dazzling array of summer clothes inside, with many customers browsing, his face filled with amazement.
