Robert stretched out his hand to take the salt from Li Dedao, put it in his mouth and tasted it, frowned and said in surprise: "It's amazing that this salt doesn't have a trace of bitterness." ”

When the old man heard this, his face showed a look of anxiety, and he shouted at Li Dedao: "Let me taste it too." After speaking, he rushed to Li Dedao sensitively, snatched the salt from Li Dedao's hand, poured a handful and put it directly into his mouth, so salty that his whole old face turned into a chrysanthemum, but he couldn't bear to spit it out, Li Dedao on the side was dumbfounded, and couldn't help but beat a spirit all over his body.

The old man's face was like the weather on the sea, and after a long period of cloudy and sunny changes, he really couldn't stand the salty taste of the salt, so he stuck out his tongue, retched and spit out all the salt that had not melted in his mouth, picked up the water on the table and rinsed his mouth.

Robert asked with concern, "Are you alright?" ”

The old man waved his hand at Robert to signal that he was okay, spit out the water in his mouth, patted Robert on the shoulder and smiled happily: "I have lived a lot of years, and it is the first time I have seen such pure salt, and you kid really didn't lie to me." ”

Robert smiled and said, "Even if the goddess of courage lends me a hundred dares, I don't dare to lie to your old man." ”

Just now, Li Dedao thought that this old man was found by Robert to verify the authenticity or grade of the salt, and it can be seen that the conversation and demeanor between the two of them are not at all like the dialogue between the master and the servant or the employment relationship, and he couldn't help but have a trace of doubt in his heart, looked at the old man and asked Robert: "This is ......?"

Robert smiled awkwardly and said, "This is ......." Before he finished speaking, he was snatched by the old man and said: "I am the Count of Rhine, Robert's uncle, I heard him come back and say that Baron Hongsen has salt as white as snow and as fine as sand, so I was curious and came to take a look, for fear that an old man like me would be caught between you, so that the two of you could not let go of the chat, so I dressed up as a servant and took a look quietly to satisfy my curiosity." ”

Li Dedao pursed his mouth and said secretly in his heart: "If I believe your words, I will be a melon peel." He didn't break the lie of Count Rhine, but followed his words and said, "Oh! ”

What does role-playing mean, Count Rheinland didn't understand it, but Li Dedao's words were a little sarcastic, and Count Rhean didn't care about it, and said, "I can't imagine that there is such salt in the world, which makes me feel as if I'm still dreaming." ”

Li Dedao said: "Then Lord Earl, do you want to taste it again to confirm." ”

"Of course, I had to taste it again to be sure if I was dreaming. After Count Rheinia finished speaking, he really poured some salt on his hands, but this time he only poured a little bit, not even one-tenth of the original amount, put it in his mouth, and the whole old face was salted into a chrysanthemum shape again, and at the same time, his hands were shaking in front of his chest like chicken feet, and his body was twisting around, as if a ghost was on his body.

Li Dedao was amused in his heart, and couldn't help but ask, "How is it! Now believe it, right?"

"Bah!" Count Rhein hurriedly spat out all the unmelted salt in his mouth, and said with a frown, "Yes, yes, I am sure I believe it." ”

"This man is an old urchin!" Li Dedao silently gave Count Rhein an evaluation in his heart and asked, "Then we can talk about business now, right?"

Since the Count of Rhine revealed his identity, Robert stood aside like a foil, never said a word again, and handed over all the right to speak to the Count of Rhine, and sure enough, it was the Count of Rhine who spoke, only to see him slowly look at the salt in his hand and sighed: "Baron Hongsen, what kind of material is the bag you use to hold salt, you don't have to worry about mixing in the sundries, don't worry about moisture-proof, it's really very suitable for manual long-distance transportation." ”

Li Dedao was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking: "With a storage ring, do you still need manual long-distance transportation?"

Earl Rhein frowned slightly when he heard this, and asked inexplicably, "Doesn't Baron Redsen know the disadvantages of storage rings?"

Li Dedao touched the storage ring on his hand and asked suspiciously, "What are the disadvantages of the storage ring?"

Count Rheinland touched the mustache on his chin and looked at Li Dedao for a while, convinced that his expression did not seem to be fake, and then said: "The storage ring is a consumable, there is a limit to the number of uses, the more goods are accessed, the larger the amount of goods, the higher the number of times used, and when the number of uses disappears, the space in the storage ring will collapse, and all the goods will turn into nothingness, so large-scale material transportation still has to rely on manual transportation to be safe." ”

Listening to Count Rheinland's words, Li Dedao finally understood, the storage ring is like the equipment in the game has durability, every time you use it, it will drop a little durability, when the durability drops to O, then this equipment will be damaged, Li Dedao, who understands this, hurriedly took off the nine storage rings on his hand, put them on the table in front of him, and said to Count Rheinland: "Lord Earl, help me see how long the durability of these storage rings can last." ”

"Durability?" Count Rhein was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood, and said with a smile: "You are talking about the number of uses." Seeing that Li Dedao nodded, he continued: "I'm not a forger, I can only judge by perception, and the number of uses I guessed is not very accurate." ”

Li Dedao said with a smile: "It's okay to have an approximate number of times, I don't ask for much." ”

Count Rheinland took the nine rings in his hand, closed his eyes, released his senses, and after a while, slowly opened his eyes and took out Li Dedao's one-cube storage ring and said: "This storage is small, enough for you to use for a long time, these eight are full of goods, probably enough for you to completely take out and store it in twice." ”

"Then I'm relieved. Li Dedao patted his chest and said, "Lord Earl, let's hurry up and trade." After speaking, he pushed the four storage rings full of salt in front of the Count of Rhine and said, "Trade four first, and there is one with less salt in it, so I will use it myself first." ”

Count Rhein took the four storage rings in his hand and played with them, but his face suddenly became serious, looked at Li Dedao and thought for a while and said: "Baron Hongsen, I have a few things I want to ask you before the transaction, please answer me truthfully." ”

Seeing Count Rhine's serious expression, Li Dedao was shocked in his heart and said secretly: "It's not good!

Count Rhein didn't wait for Li Dedao to answer, and asked the first question himself: "How much salt do you have?"

"It's really a question!" Li Dedao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and secretly laughed at himself, he really watched too many gangster movies, and he thought of the incident of black eating black at every turn, and sighed at the tooth flower Li, Li Dedao secretly calculated and said: "There is a bit of a gap between the amount of salt and the one reported to Robert, and now I can only give you 60,000 catties ......like this."

Before he finished speaking, he heard Count Rhein exclaim: "Sixty thousand catties!

"The Earl, at such an old age, is still fond of interrupting others. Li Dedao said dissatisfiedly: "If you want enough storage rings, I can get back hundreds of thousands of catties or 60,000 catties casually, which is a small amount." ”

Earl Rhein's face became even more excited when he heard this, and he said: "In this way, Baron Hongsen can continue to supply such salt in large quantities!"

Li Dedao nodded and said, "Yes! You don't have to doubt this. ”

"Good!" Count Rhein slapped the table and stood up excitedly, and then continued to ask, "How does Baron Redsen plan to sell other salt in the future?"

Li Dedao tilted his head and thought about it and said: "If I sell it myself, there is no channel, and I have to raise a lot of people, it's too troublesome, I want to be a middleman in the future, specializing in wholesale, let you take the goods from me, and then go to your respective territories to sell." ”

The Count of the Rhine clapped his hands and said, "Okay! I am relieved to have Baron Hongsen's words." After saying that, the Count of Rhein slapped his palms twice, and all the people who followed him in, except for Robert, immediately turned around and retreated to guard outside the hotel.

Count Rhein looked at Li Dedao and said, "Red Baron, the matter involved below is a bit secret, can you make your people retreat?"

Li Dedao looked at Count Rhine with puzzled eyes and said secretly in his heart, weird and weird, I don't know what the hell is going on, but there is Chibi here, even if you make a ghost, I'm not afraid, thinking of this, he said: "Barr stays, the others retreat." ”

Barr was moved in his heart when he heard this, and said secretly: "Sure enough, the adults still trust me." With excitement and gratitude on his face, he waved at the other eight and asked them to retreat outside the hotel to wait.

After seeing the eight people leave the hotel, Li Dedao said: "Barr is my confidant, you can tell Count Rheinland if you have anything." ”

Count Rhein nodded and said: "My words are divided into two kinds, one is the sincere words from the heart and lungs, and the other is the kind reminder as a partner, and it depends on the attitude of Baron Redsen." ”

"Oh!" Li Dedao was curious by what Count Rhine said, and couldn't help but speak: "You talk about it carefully." ”

Rheinberg said with a sly smile on his face: "If Baron Red Forest, after this transaction with me, goes to your hands to wholesale salt like other merchants, I can only talk to you about partners, if Baron Red can give me a price to buy, and let me sell this salt on my behalf, then I will tell you some heartfelt words, which will not only save you a lot of trouble, but also save your life." ”

"Save my life!

"Baron Redsen, don't think I'm alarmist, and don't underestimate the impact of such salt once it enters the market. ”

"Let me think about it!" Looking at the serious face of Count Rhine, Li Dedao did not agree immediately, nor did he object, but touched his chin and thought for a while and said: "If it is really as you said, I will let you sell salt as a sole agent, but there is a deadline, we will sign a five-year cooperation contract first, and when the contract arrives, we will renew it according to the situation, what do you think, Lord Earl." ”

"Okay! Count Rhine's originally serious face immediately changed to a smiling face, and said happily.
