Recently, Li Yi has been trying to attack the surrounding Baiyue tribes.

The surrounding Baiyue forces, he has already investigated clearly, with the strength of their Black Wind Village in Baiyue, if they make a move, it will be no problem to quickly gather twenty or thirty thousand people.

However, the subsequent impact will also be huge.

Just to say, what so many people eat is a big question.

Not only people, but also cattle, sheep and horses.

The number of cattle, sheep and horses will be more than the number of people, and people can eat cattle, sheep and horses, but what do cattle, sheep and horses eat?

The area around Black Wind Fort is not a place with fertile water and grass, and it is difficult to feed thousands of cattle, sheep and horses, let alone so many cattle, sheep and horses.

Some time ago, Heifeng Village seized tens of thousands of cattle, sheep and horses, a lot, Li Yi and Qinglongzhai exchanged other resources, but this kind of thing can't be done in large quantities, otherwise, Li Yi estimates that Qinglongzhai can't bear it.

After all, a large number of materials, Qinglongzhai obviously needs to be transported from the territory of Dashang, but the Qinglongzhai base in the territory of Dashang has just been destroyed, even if Qinglongzhai has other ways, it is estimated that this ability will be greatly weakened.

Besides, so many cattle, sheep and horses, they can't digest them in Heifeng Village, but Qinglong Village can digest them?

In addition, Heifeng Village may also be targeted by the big Baiyue tribe, after all, it is impossible for anyone to see an outsider wanton in their own territory, at this time, some Baiyue tribes may realize that Heifeng Village has something to do with Qinglong Village.

For the sake of Qinglong Village's face, some of the hundred tribes no longer make a move against Heifeng Village.

However, there is a limit to this patience.

After all, even if Qinglongzhai is in Baiyue, it can't act at will.

So, in the end, Li Yi still held back.

Let's take it slowly!

Wait until it develops to a certain extent, and then break out!

The third day of September.

The Black Wind Fort erects a statue more than ten meters high.

The image is similar to that of the gourd valley, but beside him, there are a few more totem beasts of Baiyue, only a few meters in size, but under the upgrading of Li Yi's belief power, all of them are very powerful.

As soon as the statue was erected, many of the Baiyue people in Black Wind Castle looked at Li Yi even more feverishly, and Li Yi gained three more points of faith power that day.

The fifth day of the ninth month.

Early in the morning, Qinglongzhai sent people to Black Wind Castle, saying that Qin Yang had invited Li Yi to Qinglong City.

"Li Yi has seen the master of Qin."

Qinglong City, the council room, Li Yi bowed his hand and saluted.

Although his relationship with Qin Wan is almost determined, his name for Qin Yang has not changed, on the contrary, Qin Yang has always called him by his name, perhaps because he regards Li Yi as a junior, or thinks that Heifeng Village and Qinglong Village are not at the same level, and Li Yi should not be called a big master.

However, Li Yi didn't care about this, and Li Yi estimated that the latter was not very likely, because, when the Qinglong gathering in the Hengling Mountains before, Qin Yang called the leaders of some first- and second-rate forces a certain big master, and in terms of strength, Black Wind Village was no worse than those first- and second-rate green forest forces.

It should be the reason why I think I am a junior, or I think the relationship is closer.

"Li Yi, you came just in time, we are planning to transport a batch of supplies to Parkway City, can you go and see that place?" Qin Yang said with a smile.

"Parkway City?"

Li Yi was a little puzzled.

"A place of trading, where there are many people from the Baiyue tribe and merchants of the big merchants, and even some people from other countries trading goods there, probably more than three hundred miles away from here." Qin Yang explained.

Li Yi's eyes lit up, and he immediately arched his hand again: "Then thank you to Master Qin." ”

Qinglongzhai had already prepared things, and after Li Yi came, it didn't take long for everyone to set off.

A total of 800 ox carts of supplies, and it is a relatively large ox cart, Qinglong Village sent a thousand cavalry plus 200 green dragon cavalry escort, the overall look is vast, very imposing.

Qin Yang didn't go with these material vehicles, he and some high-level people of Qinglongzhai, Qin Wan, took fifty Qinglong horses, plus Li Yi and Heifengzhai and his party, and went to Parkway City first.

Qin Yang and some high-level people in Qinglong Village, Qin Wan, rode all the best horses.

In order to let Li Yi's subordinates keep up with the speed, Qin Yang deliberately changed a batch of top-quality horses for Li Yi's subordinates.

The best horse, three hundred and fifty miles a day.

That night, the crowd rushed to Parkway City.

At this time, Parkway City is brightly lit, and some different customs can be seen everywhere.

After a day of traveling, everyone was dusty, and without too much sightseeing, they found an inn-like place to rest, the owner of the inn was very respectful to Qin Yang, and it had exceeded the politeness of the store to the guests, Li Yi guessed that it should be someone from Qinglong Village.

Obviously, Qinglong Village is in Parkway City, and it is not without any foundation.

The next day.

Li Yi saw the bustle of Parkway City.

The voices were full of people, and there were all kinds of languages, which made Li Yi in a trance, as if he had seen the top metropolis in his previous life again.

However, the bustle of Parkway City makes people feel more real, all kinds of items are placed in front of them, merchants and customers are talking and laughing, or showing angry conversations, the smell of goods, the smell of land, and even the smell of various livestock go straight to the nose.

"Don't get too close to others, people here have rules, see your favorite products, go over and talk about them one by one." Qin Yang said.

Li Yi nodded, indicating that he understood.

Next, Qin Yang went to talk to people about business, and last night, he had already asked people to contact a few customers.

In order not to touch the secrets of Qinglong Village, Li Yi did not follow the past, and found a reason to wander around, in fact, this is also Li Yi's true thoughts.

He found that this place opened the door to a new world for him.

Qin Yang didn't keep it, but just asked Li Yi if he needed to send a few green dragon riders to follow, and Li Yi politely refused.

In fact, there are not many green dragon riders brought into Parkway City by Qin Yang, only ten, or more than a dozen are other high-level and masters of Qinglong Village, and they do not belong to the green dragon riders.

The other Dragoons were stationed outside the city.

After all, the reason why the green dragon rider is powerful is because on a horse, in the field, if there is no horse, and in a place where the terrain is more complicated, the strength of the green dragon rider will be greatly reduced.

Moreover, when they came, they rode dozens of top-quality horses, but those top-quality horses were a lot of wealth, and without a large number of masters to take care of them, Qin Yang would not be at ease.

In this case, Li Yi naturally would not divert the masters around Qin Yang anymore.

In terms of masters, the masters around Li Yi are not bad.

Li Ling is a top-level guard.

There are also senior figures such as Zheng An, Qian Xiaoer, and Zhang Whirlwind.

After walking around, Li Yi found that many of the things here are relatively cheap, especially cattle and sheep, and horses are strategic resources, which are slightly more expensive, but they are also very cheap compared to the prices in the larger commercial areas.

However, there are also many more expensive ones, such as salt, iron, tea, porcelain, etc.

"No wonder, so many people are willing to take great risks to do business at the border, this time and again, it is several times the profit......" Li Yi sighed in his heart.

Li Yi thought of the supplies of the eight hundred ox carts transported from Qinglong Village.

He didn't know what Qinglongzhai was transporting, but this business should make Qinglongzhai make a lot of money.

originally thought that when Qinglongzhai was in Qingyang Erzhou, it could make a lot of money by collecting so many protection fees from the green forest forces.

Now it seems that perhaps this kind of business is the bulk of Qinglongzhai's income.

"Golden eagle!"

Suddenly, Qin Wan pointed to a place and said in surprise.

"We have eagles in Qinglong Village, which are specially used to deliver emergency letters, and the golden eagle is a very powerful bird in Baiyue, and we don't have it in Qinglong Village." Qin Wan turned her head to look at Li Yi and said.

"Would you like to buy some birds to cultivate too?" Even if you don't need it now, you may be able to use it in the future. Qin Wan then asked.

She is thinking about the development of Heifeng Village, not necessarily asking Li Yi to buy a golden eagle.

Listening to Qin Wan's words, Li Yi's heart moved slightly.

Carrier pigeons are used in this world, but they are not popular, because there is a lot of uncertainty in the use of carrier pigeons to transmit letters, especially for important information, so it is necessary to use more powerful birds to transmit information.

Moreover, raising a few birds of prey has a kind of temptation to listen to.

He has a pack of wolves, three tigers, two brown bears in the Hengling Mountains, and has never raised a flying animal like a bird of prey.

"How many guests, but you want birds?"

When Li Yi and his party approached, the merchant asked with a smile in the language of a big businessman.

Li Yi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it seems that no matter where he learns two languages, it is very useful, just now, he listened to this merchant talking with the Baiyue people, and he used the Baiyue language to sell two young eagles.

"How do you sell this pair of golden eagles?" Li Yi pointed to a pair of young eagles and asked with a smile.

"Childe has a good eye, the golden eagle is a famous bird of prey in Baiyue, you see that there are two red lines on the head of this pair of golden eagles, this is called the red-headed golden eagle, and it is the best in the golden eagle, not only greater than the ordinary golden eagle, but also more endurance, ordinary golden eagle young eagle, three hundred taels of silver, this red-headed golden eagle five hundred taels of silver." The merchant laughed.

"It's too expensive." Li Yi shook his head slightly.

Five hundred taels of silver and an eagle, which can save an ordinary court family for a lifetime in the territory of Dashang.

However, this is not something to sell to ordinary people, the golden eagle belongs to the famous birds of prey in Baiyue, and the powerful people of Baiyue should like it more, compared to those people, five hundred taels of silver is nothing.

For example, in the previous life, many rich people may spend a meal to make an ordinary family live for decades, and the cost of buying a car at random will not be earned by an ordinary family in a lifetime.

The gap between the rich and the poor can be found everywhere.

Not to mention, listening to what this merchant said, these two golden eagles are still the best among the golden eagles, and the best things have always been more expensive in many goods.

"What about these eagles?"

Li Yi pointed to the young eagle next to him.

"This is a steppe eagle, one hundred taels of silver." The merchant said with a smile that he didn't look down on Li Yi because he thought his golden eagle was expensive.

The group behind Li Yi is not simple at first glance, buying and selling things, the two parties negotiate the price, and dislike each other, which is also normal.

"Do you have any birds here that can take people to fly when they are adults?" Suddenly, Li Yi turned his head to look at the merchant and asked.

Hearing Li Yi's question, the merchant looked strange, and then, he shook his head with a smile and said: "The guest is joking, the birds on the grassland, who have not yet been able to do this, can take thirty or fifty catties of prey off the ground and swoop, even if it is very powerful, as for the birds that can fly with people, there is not one." ”

"There is also a difference between taking off and flying, birds of prey that are flying, their weight-bearing capacity may be higher, birds of prey that have not yet flown up, you may just use a few pounds of something to press on them, they can't fly, so, if you want to find a bird that can take people to fly, I'm afraid you can't find it."

After a pause, the merchant continued.

"Okay!"

Li Yi nodded, a hint of disappointment flashing in his eyes.

It seems that this world is indeed a low-martial world, at least, the environment he is currently in contact with is like this.

His idea of flying on a bird, and even the idea of creating a flying knight, was about to fail.

"Three steppe eagles, two red-headed golden eagles, a thousand taels of silver, if I can, I will buy them." Then, Li Yi thought about it and said.

"Childe's price is too much." The merchant shook his head.

"These things are my extra expenses, since Your Excellency is inconvenient, then I can only have the opportunity to cooperate in the future."

Li Yi said with a smile, and he didn't give the other party too much, such as turning around and leaving.

Don't merchants want to lose face? You turn around and leave, and you meet a tough merchant who could have sold it to you, but when he saw you like this, he didn't sell it to you.

Is it much for something worth 12,300 taels of silver, and the bargain is 1,000 taels? Not much, especially, this is a border trading area, and it is estimated that many things are more imaginary.

Li Yi doesn't like to bargain, so he gives this price, if he can buy it, he buys it, and if he can't buy it, forget it.

The most important thing is that this kind of bird can't fly with people, and Li Yi is not particularly in urgent need of this kind of thing.

After saying some kind words, Li Yi turned around and left.

"Hey, guest, if the funds are not sufficient, you can buy one less steppe eagle, and a thousand taels of silver is fine......," the merchant replied.

"The quantity is too small to be worth buying."

Li Yi turned around, looked at the other party, and shook his head slightly.

"This ...... Who let me see that Gongzi has eyes, three steppe eagles, two red-headed golden eagles, and a thousand taels of silver is a thousand taels of silver. The merchant gritted his teeth and said.

Li Yi smiled, didn't speak again, and asked the people around him to give the merchant a hundred taels of gold.

In a hurry this time, they actually didn't bring much gold and silver, but when they were separated from Qin Yang and his party, Qin Yang lent him five hundred taels of gold, and when he saw something he liked, he wouldn't have no money to buy it.

Seeing that Li Yi paid for gold, the merchant was even more smiling.

The exchange ratio of gold to silver is at least one to ten, especially since this is the border, the environment is relatively chaotic, the size of gold is small, it is safer to hold, and the relative value is higher.

Knowing that Li Yi was paying gold, he had already agreed.

For this reason, he gave Li Yi several good quality iron cages.

Li Yi asked the people around him to send these young eagles and young eagles to the inn.

Next.

He led people around the commodity areas of Parkway City, asking about the prices of various commodities.

Regarding this market, Li Yi has a vague plan in his heart.

Finally, Li Yi and his entourage walked to the horse market.

There are a large number of horses here.

Li Yi's eyes lit up.

One of his plans, one of them, was about horses.

"Ladies and gentlemen, do you want to buy a horse?" A merchant greeted him and asked with a smile.

"How do you sell your horses here?" Li Yi asked.

"Depending on the number of guests buying, if you buy it in bulk, you will have to pay twenty-five taels of silver for a low-class horse, fifty-two taels of silver for a medium-class horse, two hundred and eighty taels of silver for a high-class horse, and five hundred and fifty taels of gold for a superb horse.

"The best horse, why is it so expensive?"

Li Yi raised his eyebrows.

A high-quality horse, two hundred and eighty taels of silver, and a top-quality horse of five hundred and fifty taels of gold, is almost twenty times the difference.

"The guest officer should have heard that the scarcity is expensive, the best horses, large and small tribes have some, all parties compete, the value can not come up, the best horses, many tribes do not have, can not be found, as long as there is, do not worry about the guests to buy, and the buyers are nobles, you say, can this price not come up?" The merchant laughed.

"Okay, but is your horse here exactly graded?" Li Yi nodded slightly.

What the other party said, it is not difficult to understand, just like the difference between luxury goods and ordinary commodities in the previous life, ordinary bags of dozens of yuan, hundreds of yuan a piece is good, luxury bags, tens of thousands of yuan a start, expensive hundreds of thousands, millions of one, ordinary people work hard for decades may not earn this money, do you dare to think?

In comparison, the best horse with more than 500 taels of gold is a relatively valuable luxury.

Li Yi has judged that inferior horses are unqualified horses evaluated by Goldfinger.

A medium horse is a junior horse evaluated by Goldfinger.

A high-class horse is an intermediate horse evaluated by Goldfinger.

The best horse is a high-grade horse evaluated by Goldfinger.

However, after all, it is judged by people, and if it is a person, there is a time to lose his eyes, and this time, Li Yi wants to take advantage of this loophole.

"Guests rest assured, our horse farm is decades old, the horse master is famous, if you find that the horse you bought is bad, the original price of the money will be refunded, and the horse will be given to you in vain." The merchant laughed.

Li Yi chuckled.

This time, what he wanted to find was not a horse farm with a good vision of the Soma Division, but a horse farm with a bad vision of the Soma Division.

However, it's all here, so I have to take a look.

And, what if people are bragging?

"Can I go into the racecourse and pick it up?"

Li Yi asked.

"How many horses are the guests going to buy?" The merchant asked.

"Look at the edge of the eyes, a few hundred horses, a few horses, or even not to buy them." Li Yi shook his head and said.

"Okay, what grade of horse are you going to buy? If you want to buy a lot of inferior and medium horses, you need to go outside the city to trade, there are not many inferior and medium horses in the city! The merchant said with a smile, he has seen a lot of such guests, this young man is a big businessman, such a big businessman is not simple when he comes here, the people behind this young man are not simple, and the women around him are not simple, he will not underestimate Li Yi.

This is likely to be a customer with a lot of potential.
