Chapter 31: Don't let us go if you're a ghost!

The snowflake-like fine well salt was born in the remote Xidu, but at the beginning of its birth, it did not cause a sensation. ，

For the common people and slaves who lived on the subsistence line, the fine snow-white well salt was not as good as the coarse salt, and it was expensive and unbearable to eat, that is, the nobles only enjoyed it.

It is precisely because of this that Yao Yun did not take out the fine well salt for sale, and he was not ready to sell it to the poor in the early days, and his goal was to put it on the rich in other places.

No matter how scarce and scarce the material world is, there are always a handful of people who are rich and can squander resources at will, and this world is no exception, Yao Yun sees it very clearly, because he himself is a member of the vested interests.

Therefore, the positioning of high-quality well salt is a high price, and if he wants to sell it at a good price, Yao Yun also needs to wait for a good time to find a caravan with a little more energy to have a chance.

Every autumn, countless merchants and caravans from other places always come to Xidu, so Yao Yun, who has golden eggs in his hands, is not in a hurry at all.

On the contrary, the appearance of soy milk, tofu brain, and tofu has attracted the attention of the people of Xidu.

Beans were originally one of the five grains, and every household had them, so these foods quickly spread and were loved by people, whether they were croppers or hunters and craftsmen, they all said that they were good after tasting them.

And from the soy products to the stone mill, the people of Xidu know such a tool for grinding food powder.

When several stone mills lined up to process soybeans, women and children also talked about it.

"When I heard that the stonemasons had made stone mills, the king was pleased and gave them a great reward. ”

"What reward?"

"The reward is great, envy the dead, you know, a whole adult black muntjac, just hunted, and five stones of grain, that's five hundred catties of grain, how many people are in the craftsman's workshop, everyone can share dozens of catties. ”

"My man is an honest farmer, and if he can be rewarded like this, he will be much more comfortable this winter. ”

"Who's to say it's not, but it's nothing, I'll tell you a big secret!"

"What's the secret?"

"Do you know why you are not allowed to go in when you grind the beans? It's not that they're greedy for ink beans, but they're afraid to scare us!"

"What scares us, is there a ghost in it!"

"Yo, it's really been said, there are really ghosts, our beans are all ground by ghosts, and some stone grinders don't need to be done, he can move by himself!"

"Ah!!h

All the women turned pale with fright, and their bodies could not help but retreat.

"If you don't believe it, I can take you to see ghosts, don't be afraid, listen to my nephew who works in the stonemason workshop, ghosts are not terrible at all, obedient, hard-working!"

The women around them were so frightened that they retreated again and again, not daring to take half a step closer to the fat and strong woman.

"Coward, the old lady will take a look for herself. ”

After saying that, the fat and strong woman walked out, followed by two bold and fat hairy children.

After many twists and turns, they came to a dark shed in the stonemason's workshop, and soon they saw a ghost, a ghost with a blue face and fangs, and a single horn on its head.

"Damn, what a ghost!"

Two little hairy children hugged the fat woman's thighs and trembled.

However, to their surprise, their shouting did not attract the attention of the ghosts, and the unicorn still circled around the stone mill, constantly pushing and grinding, and a man stood next to it, constantly adding beans to the stone mill.

"Don't shout, what are you afraid of, the king is the god of the imperial family, and even the ghosts have to surrender at the feet of the king, these ghosts are all evil ghosts who commit murder and hurt people, and now the king has sentenced them, and now the ghosts are being punished!"

Hearing this, the fat woman and the two hairy children were dumbfounded, I don't know if they were frightened by the ghost or shocked by the man's words.

Women always like to gossip among themselves, especially the fat woman who loves to chew the root of her tongue, and it didn't take long for the whole people of Xidu to know about the king's sentence to the ghost and let him grind the beans.

Someone saw it with their own eyes, and there were craftsmen from the stonemason workshop to testify, and the truth of the matter did not need to be said, and for a while, the whole Xidu went crazy.

In the past, they were afraid of ghosts and tigers, for fear of being stained with such unclean evil things, and it was taboo to even mention them, but in the blink of an eye, people all over the city were talking about ghosts and ghosts.

Some of the bold ones are even more excited to rush to hell!

People who have seen ghosts say yes, and they are amazed one by one, and then they praise them even more.

"Everything is true, you don't see how obedient the ghost is, someone pours beans, and it is there to grind, obedient, and obedient like my sheep!"

"It's really fake, so let's not be afraid of ghosts in the future, didn't the king issue a decree before, saying that ghosts dare to hurt people, they will be arrested and tried, criminal law, let them be reformed through labor!"

"The king is so powerful, people still hear from the stonemasons that the king is the descendant of the emperor gods, and the nobles of Zhuxia are even ghosts and gods who have to surrender at the feet of the king!"

......

The whole hustle and bustle is boiling, people are either afraid, worried, or festive, but in general, there is a change, that is, no longer smelling ghosts.

The hustle and bustle of the people dissipates during the day, and the dark curtain falls at night, and the ten bright moons rise, and it is time for the activities of the ghosts.

In fact, ghosts are a very rare thing, not common, usually very powerful ghosts are not treated by the lords, will be expelled, and there are witch temples in Xidu, so there are not many ghosts in Xidu, although ghosts hurt people from time to time, but not frequently.

However, today's Xidu is a hundred ghosts walking at night, and many ghosts with a little wisdom have come out of a corner in the ground, in groups of three or five, very panicked!

Fang Liang ghost: "Did you hear what Wu Zhu said, King Xi wants to harm us, and wants to arrest us as slaves, and work for King Xi as cattle and horses!"

Minotaur: "It's not right, I heard that it is the ghost who hurts and harms people to be arrested as coolies, King Xi calls it labor reform, hey, in fact, it has no effect on us, we are all born with spiritual wisdom, and we know that the long flow of water is generally not harmful, just absorb a little bit of the popularity of the world and cultivate, only stupid ghosts will cause trouble and be caught!"

Long-tongued ghost "What do you know, King Xi is targeting our ghosts, he used to be ruled by him when he was a man, but I didn't expect it to become a ghost now, King Xi is still unwilling to let us go, look, he is still a person, not even a ghost!"

Lovesick ghost: "We want to overthrow the tyranny of King Xi, he is the king like this, he will not let us go if he is a ghost, people's greatest wish is to be with Lang Jun night and night, now I am afraid that it will not be, I may not be arrested by the king one day!"

After speaking, the lovesick female ghost lowered her head and brushed her face and sobbed softly.

The voice of the listener wept, and the ghost heard it moving.
