At daybreak, a long line formed at the Government Office's entrance, composed of citizens seeking travel passes.
Yu Tingwan smeared soot on her face again, blending in with the crowd, while toying with a newly acquired Hidden Weapon.
She had received it from Shunzi after visiting the ironworks.
Yu Tingwan dared not press it randomly, fearing she might accidentally trigger its mechanism.
Unexpectedly, it seemed to have a noticeable heft, nothing like a cheap piece.
But she knew little about such things, and planned to ask Wei Shen about it later.
Behind her were complaints.
"These travel passes are getting more expensive. Last year they were only four coins, but now they're up to six. How do they expect us to live? At this rate, our household will be drained empty."
How much?
Yu Tingwan felt a bit uneasy.
For four people, it would cost twenty-four coins.
That's enough to buy eight sleeve arrows!!!
"Shh, quiet now, don't let those constables up front hear."
