"Where are you from?"

Liu Mingqi asked directly in Dakang's words.

What the merchants just said was also Dakang.

When these foreigners communicate with each other, their preferred official language is Dakang dialect.

If you don’t know how to say it, you will definitely be ridiculed as a rustic bun.

Even the communication between Mozang Haochuan, Ugala, and Yelu Feiyang are like this.

Then this trend was also brought to the business world.

Originally, everyone sold things from Dakang, so they naturally had to communicate during the transaction. Being able to speak Dakang words means being able to communicate directly with Dakang people.

The person I can speak Dakang is more awesome than you.

Even though these people spoke non-standard Dakang dialect mixed with a lot of northwest accents, Liu Mingqi could still understand it after all.

On the other hand, Liu Mingqi's standard and great speech seemed a bit beyond the specification.

A group of businessmen looked at Liu Mingqi in unison, and their eyes were filled with respect.

They can't say it themselves, but they have definitely heard authentic official language.

Foreigners who can speak standard Dakang Mandarin are either high-ranking officials or big businessmen, or these people can afford specialized teachers to teach.

No matter which one is, it is not something that small businessmen like them can achieve.

After hesitating for a moment, a businessman bowed hesitantly: "Below is the merchant Kama of the Uighur Piveng tribe. These are also our Uighur businessmen. How dare you ask the noble person?..."

"We are from Luobo City in the eastern part of Tubo, close to Changdu Prefecture." Liu Mingqi pointed to Liu Mingjing who was sitting in the distance, "This is our little prince of Banqu Danzeng. My territory is also on the Nujiang River. You can go directly to Nanzhao or even Dakang. Have you ever been there?"

"Ah! It turns out it's the little prince's caravan!"

Several businessmen quickly bowed down.

Just now, they confirmed the identity of Liu Mingqi and the others from the Tubo words of Xidan Dunzhu and others.

Although they have never been to Luobo City, they have heard of such a city as Chamdo, which is very developed within a thousand miles. It is said that it is very prosperous, with ships constantly stopping and trading non-stop, and it is so fat that it is so fat.

Since Luobo City is next to Changdu Mansion, even if it is a little bit worse, it is not far away.

From this we can see that it is definitely not a luck for others to take out so many soaps, but it is really due to strength!

No wonder they have such a big formation.

Is there any mistake to have money and power, and bringing so many thousands of elite troops out?

"I have never heard of your tribe." Liu Mingqi said, "What kind of business do you do on weekdays?"

Kama said embarrassedly: "To be honest, what we do is just some jade, leather, gems, and mountain goods business, which is not as big as the one at the Little Prince's house."

"No wonder you can't recognize these things." The boy pointed to the boxes next to him. "Soap is just ordinary things in our place, everywhere. But these things are uncommon."

"Ah? What is it?"

Several businessmen quickly changed their eyes.

"Have you heard of flower essential oil? Have you heard of white sugar? Have you heard of big white rabbit milk candy? Have you heard of toilet paper?" Liu Mingqi pointed over one by one.

"Oh, God of Eternal Life!!"

Kama was the first to exclaim, "This... This is the flower essential oil that only the great nobles can use in the legend! It is said that my Uighur King's concubines have been making noise for it for a long time! It is impossible for ordinary people to see it!"

Liu Mingqi smiled, picked up a bottle and opened it, and a smell of plum blossoms that penetrated into her heart suddenly came out.

Then he signaled the group to spread their hands, drip a few drops on their hands, and then let them use them to wipe their faces.

They touched their faces with their hands, and glycerin soaked them in their faces refreshedly, as if they had given their skin water. And the rich fragrance of flowers seemed to feel like they were in the ocean of flowers.

This feeling...

It makes people fall in love with it.

These businessmen have always come and go in the wind and rain, and they are very rough. How have you ever seen such a fine maintenance method?

Liu Mingqi said at this time: "I heard that the emperor and queen of Dakang have to apply flower essential oil every day to apply all over the body... We are all mortals, so we naturally don't use so much, but it is necessary to use it to apply it to make yourself feel more comfortable during the dry season."

Kama and others woke up from intoxication, and heard this and felt embarrassed.

"Sir, you are joking! How could a small businessman like us use such a thing in heaven?"

Then another little businessman said with a bold heart: "I dare to ask, how much does this... cost a bottle of essential oil in flower?"

The bottle that Liu Mingqi took out was just a trial package, which was about twenty-five milliliters, and looked very small.

"This one sells five taels of silver per bottle in Dakang." Liu Mingqi said: "When I arrived at our side, it had already risen to twenty taels per bottle. It shouldn't be an exaggeration for me to take it over and sell fifty taels of silver per bottle, right?"

"Not too much, not too much."

The merchants replied in unison.

It’s only one tael of silver for soap, but it’s twenty taels or even more expensive when you get here.

It’s only 50 taels for other people’s items, so it’s definitely not bad.

However, soap is a necessity. It can not only remove stains on the body, but also apply a touch of the wound when it is injured, which can prevent inflammation and suppuration to a certain extent and save a person.

Although it doesn’t work every time, it’s an amazing effect compared to the past when applying those ointments randomly but are useless.

So the popularity of soap is really extraordinary.

Of course, because it is so expensive, few people use it to wash clothes. It seems that only those super rich people, kings, and nobles dare to use it so luxuriously.

Turning around, although floral essential oil is very good, you can tell without thinking that women must be flocking to it, but it is just a pleasure thing and has little to do with the ordinary people below, so it doesn’t matter how expensive it is.

It’s like buying high and selling high, and doing business like this.

"If we are in large quantities... no, if we buy this floral essential oil to sell, I don't know how much price you can give?"

Kama almost spoke according to the previous routine, and then thought about where he got so much money to buy in large quantities, so he could only ask in a small batch first.

Liu Mingqi said: "We little prince said that we are here in the Western Regions for the first time, and we also want to see and make friends. You guys who dare to come out to talk to us are destined to do so, so let each of them take two bottles first! Use it yourself, or let those nobles and rich women use it, and then let us talk about money next time!"

"Send, give, give to us!?"

The merchants were drooling.

Liu Mingqi nodded: "It's not just the essential oil of floral fragrance, but also this one."

As he said that, he took a bag of sugar a pound and poured a little into their hands: "Have you seen this sugar? Take it and see!"

"Oh!"

A fat businessman exclaimed before he even ate it: "Is this white sugar? I've seen it! I've eaten it! On Lord Luopu Jiacuo's birthday party... this white sugar was put in the cheese, wow... that's so sweet!! I heard that white sugar is very expensive, and even Lord Luopu Jiacuo can't eat it often!"

Under his exaggerated expression, the few people stuck out their tongues and licked the sugar particles.

Although it was only a small pinch, it immediately melted in the mouth and replaced by a sweet spring, from the tip of the tongue to the throat, and then to the heart.

Now their intoxication is even more powerful than the flower essential oil just now!

This is also nonsense.

No one can resist the happiness of dopamine.

Those who can resist the fact that they don’t eat candy are all heroes!

A businessman recalled it and couldn't help but lick the empty palm with his tongue.

But no one laughed at him.

Neither Liu Mingqi.

Seeing them staring at the candy bag with a pound, the boy said, "This is a pound. It seems that there are some Zhaling tribes on your Uighurs, and the Eling tribes are also selling them. The price is forty taels of silver! You really haven't heard of it!"

"Oh, the Zhaling people have heard of it." A businessman replied, "They have a lot of good things in their hands, but these good things are all for big people. They are not enough in the Uighurs, so how can they come to this remote countryside in the Western Regions?"

Kama also said: "If you have to sell for forty taels in the Uighurs, you will have to sell at least sixty taels or seventy taels here!"

"It's your business for how much you sell." Liu Mingqi said: "Everyone of you should take a pack here and give it to customers in need to taste it. Then they know how good the sugar is and will ask you to buy it in the future, right?"

"right!"

A group of people replied loudly.

Who is unhappy about what you want for free?

The next big white rabbit milk candy and toilet paper were also well known to these small businessmen in this excited and numb state.

Then, same way, they got another batch of trial supplies, including five pieces of soap per person.

It is no exaggeration to say that the trial supplies given to them alone are worth two or three hundred taels of silver.

This made the businessmen who originally felt very dangerous cheer.w

They ran back to the city and reported to the generals and guards of the southern city of Khotan, and were also very excited.

Seeing this, Liu Mingjing poked Xiong Dabao next to him, "You said that if we were bad people, would this city be harmed by this group of merchants who were blinded by interests?"

"Maybe," Xiong Dabao said, "but they expected their vigilance to be very low."

"So we rushed in while opening the city gate, burned, killed, looted the city, and finally left!" Liu Mingjing said in a dream, "The life of such a horse bandit is really pleasant!"

Xiong Dabao laughed.

Don’t say that Liu Mingjing looks like this, he really has the potential to be a horse bandit.

If there were such a group of horse bandits on the grassland, I'm afraid even the Uighurs and the Western Qiang people would have a headache!
