Chapter 84 Xidu is on fire!
Chapter 84 Xidu is popular! [Please recommend votes!]
When the spring breeze blows across the land of Xiguo, the vast Yingshui River thaws, and the flowing water whirrs. Walking by the river, people can still hear charming sounds.
This is the call of the monster.
However, no one was afraid, but felt comfortable. Red pigs returned from Yunmeng Lake. They were messengers of spring, indicating that spring was getting closer and closer.
The snow and the ice melted, and the sounds were dripping everywhere, so the whole Xi was wet.
Yao Yun was in a very good mood. As long as spring came, the task released by Huangshi Tianshu would come to an end.
This year, the slave life in Xidu was much better than in previous years. Most of the middle-aged slaves had work to do, and there was enough food to eat. Women and children also arranged for work to weave and wash clothes, and a few young and old did some miscellaneous work.
So far, there has been no starvation to death, but the two of them are sick and have not survived this winter. Overall, the task has been completed quite well.
I think Huangshi Tianshu will not be stingy.
Just like this, we waited for the official arrival of spring day by day, but Yao Yun waited for the official arrival of spring, and did not wait for the reward of Huangshi Tianshu, but waited for a large number of caravans.
Yes, the caravans of the vassal states from around Xiguo.
In the past, the caravans would wait until winter was completely over, and only when spring was warm and flowers bloomed would come to Xidu for trade and exchange, but this year it was nearly a month ahead of schedule.
When the snow had not melted and the road conditions were not very good, a large number of caravans came.
Dust, eyes full of greed and madness.
This scene directly scared the soldiers guarding the city of Xidu, and raided the caravan as an enemy, making the whole city nervous.
"Where are you?" The guards of the city closed the city gate and asked loudly.
"We are the caravan of Izumo Country. You don't remember us anymore. We are old acquaintances."
"Hey, boss, it seems that it is really the Izumo caravan. That's the leader of the caravan. Brother Dao, why did their caravan come so early today!"
Before Xidu guards could ask questions, the captain of the Izumo caravan, Brother Dao shouted loudly:
"We want to buy salt, snowflake fine salt!"
The soldiers of Xidu looked at each other, but before they could recover, a caravan appeared in front of him in the distance. One of them rode a fast horse and shouted loudly: "We also buy salt, snowflake salt, we bring a generous gift to offer it, I hope my brother will report it to Xiyunnan!"
The face of the Izumo Caravan fell immediately, his expression was solemn and he seemed a little anxious.
Last year, Brother Dao was cruel and took advantage of the heavy snow before it fell to pull a large amount of grain Laixi for exchange for snowflake salt. He was originally a little nervous, worried that snowflakes and white salt would not be easy to sell.
But who would have thought that after he presented the white salt of snow to the Izuyun Palace, he immediately received the attention of the palace manager and praised it.
This was not over yet. A few days later, the king of Izumo Kingdom invited the civil and military ministers and took out the snowflakes and white salt. For a moment, the big people in the hall were amazed.
Such delicate and fair, crystal clear salt is unheard of, and the literati and literati and wise men praised it all the time.
The king of Izumo did not expect such a scene. When faced with the praise of his ministers, the king was so proud and in a good mood.
For this reason, Brother Dao was honored to be personally received by the king, and was praised, promoted and raised, and was in full swing for a while.
After the banquet, the snowflake salt became famous in Yun Kingdom and was sought after by countless noble people. In addition to the snowflake salt dedicated to the monarch, the remaining snowflake salt also increased, and he made a lot of money.
Brother Dao was so excited that he was full of a second spring. He was a common talent for cultivation. He was over fifty years old and became a Qi Refiner with the blood and bumps of the ferocious beasts. He had no pursuit in his life, but he just wanted to discuss and make some savings to live.
However, the snowflake salt made him find a way to get rich. Scarce is precious, and rare means huge profits. There is no doubt that the snowflake salt is such a rare thing.
Before spring officially arrived, he led the caravan to Xidu in the wind and snow.
Originally, Brother Dao thought he could take the lead, but after all, it was difficult to walk on the road now. The extremely hungry beast was fierce and tight, and his eyes were shining with greed when he saw living things, which was very dangerous along the way.
But Brother Dao never expected that other caravans did not react slowly at all.
Obviously, the caravans that bought Snowflake Salt last year all had experiences similar to their own and understood the great value of Snowflake Salt.
The world was full of prosperity and profit. Not long after, more and more caravans arrived in Xidu.
Xidudun, who was originally quiet and peaceful, became lively in an instant. Countless businessmen were looking for various relationships just to meet King Xi and buy snowflake salt.
Yao Yun was practicing the "Ten Witches Heart Methods of Lingshan" and hit the realm of great success. He did not come forward to deal with it at the first time, but the second elder of the Wu Temple came forward.
When Yao Yun practiced and came out of seclusion, Xingye and Xiaocao rushed over excitedly.
"Master, Master, Xi is so popular, he is completely popular!"
Yao Yunhuo stood up, looking disbelief. The days when the ice and snow melted were wet everywhere, so why did it catch fire? So he asked while taking advantage of his face:
"Where is the fire? Why is it going to catch fire on this day? It's almost the same flood. Could it be an iron smelting workshop?"
Thinking of the iron smelting workshop, Yao Yun was so worried that he was not worried about losses, but about the safety of the craftsmen. These people are treasures and cannot be lost.
Xingye was smart and responsive. He immediately shook his head and smiled, "King, it's not an iron smelting workshop, but Xidu's snowflakes and salt are on fire. Many caravans came to our Xidu one month in advance. The reputation of high-quality well salt has completely opened up in the nearby vassal states."
Xiaocao continued, "Yes, king, now countless caravan leaders are carrying generous gifts, begging you for your reception!"
Yao Yun breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that it was a matter of fine Jingyan. He thought that a fire had occurred, so he was worried for nothing.
"Okay, Gu knows it, and ordered the palace guards to keep all the people in the caravan outside. Gu doesn't want to see them at the moment."
Apricot leaves and Xiaocao were shocked: "Master, don't we sell them salt?"
Yao Yun smiled and said, "Sell! Of course."
After saying that, Yao Yun strode out of the practice room and was about to go to the Wu Temple to find Wu Tong and Bald Dragon, but unexpectedly, one person and one dragon happened to come to the palace with a gaze.
Wu Tong looked happy, his steps were light, and he was not as old as ever: "King, Snowflakes and salt are indeed very popular. Many caravans came here, hahahaha, it's really lively outside!"
The bald dragon, who has always been cold to Yao Yun, also looked proud: "Xi has been built for more than ten years. The caravan has come back so early. Hehe, now Xi has dug up the treasure mountain."
When Yao Yun saw that the two of you came, he immediately asked them to sit down, and then looked at them calmly, one by one, one by one, one by one.
The bald dragon quickly spoke again: "Criminal, a large number of caravan leaders are waiting behind the palace, just waiting for you to receive it, hahaha, Prince, Ben Long told you, you should make a ruthless offer. Ben Long secretly inquired, the snowflakes and salt spread in the circle of nobles in the nearby vassal states. There is a price but no market, we will issue it now!"
Wu Tong also sighed: "Yes, the king said that the value of snowflake salt is ten times that of ordinary salt. Second Master and I don't believe it yet. Now we are convinced. The king is really wise and wise. Master, how much is appropriate for us to raise the price this time?"
