724 Tear down the east wall and make up the west wall
"What! Is that okay too? I listened to Nie Xiaoqian's suggestion and was a little surprised.
Is this ~ let me tear down the east wall and make up the west wall? It's just that the east wall of someone else's house was torn down, but the west wall of my own house was repaired...... It's just, is this an act of picking up rags, or is it an act of robbery? Although it is a bandit den that is going to be demolished......
Still, it's a good idea! After all, I'm really dying of poverty now! And after all, if it weren't for the long distance, I was afraid that if I would provoke the enemy to chase and kill me when I left the border of the Tang Dynasty, then I would go to Nanyang again. At that time, I heard that the specialty of many small countries in the South Seas is gold!
But for the sake of safety~ let's forget it first! If the mandarin ducks and ducks run out of strength this time, I won't have any gold reserves to consume!
"Why don't you find someone to fool around?"
Although I have thought so, but friendship this thing, although I am now a nobleman with a title in the Tang Dynasty, but I estimated that I still don't have so much face!
Besides, when the commercial street was set up at that time, I had already asked for all the face that could be used. I've got a lot of gold! In this way, I am still a bit of a face-saving person in Datang.
"No matter, anything else is fine, but not without gold!" I took another look at the empty gold room in the warehouse, and my visibly shrunken body after I took out a lot of merchandise from the mall and refreshed it. I gritted my teeth and said to the mandarin duck and the duck.
The two of them looked at each other and agreed. After all, if you want to make a lot of gold this time, you have to find a rich place, and you have to leave the border of Datang.
Now I already know that as soon as I leave the realm of the Tang Dynasty, I will encounter those mysterious enemies who covet this 'inheritance thing' on me. However, judging from my current consumption, if I don't find a large amount of gold to replenish the inventory, it is estimated that the mall will refresh it a few more times, plus the consumption of mandarin ducks and ducks, as well as Nie Xiaoqian and Xiaoyu. I don't think it will take more than two months for my body to be completely consumed. When the time comes, it's really 'over'!
The time of these two months can be calculated by the duck. No matter how she says it, it's the 'manual or the housekeeper' of the inheritance! So her words should be correct.
So, I went straight to the mall and researched the maps and geography books of the later generations. I have to find a place not far from Datang. It's better not to be as barbaric as Nanyang, and if you want to do business well, you have to come up with enough deterrence. It has to be a place where gold is abundant. As long as this is the place like this, it is my destination this time. I have thought about it, and when the time comes, I will directly use all kinds of glass products in the mall as glass products and sell them at a high price.
Fortunately, such a location can still be found in geography books. It is the country of Tianzhu on the map......
In fact, the first place I wanted to go was the nest of Persian merchants and big food merchants. However, after I studied the ancient Silk Road from maps and geography books of later generations, I realized that this distance was completely overland. But it's too long, too far! Even if I fly all the way with a wooden kite. I guess when I get to my destination, I'll get next year! After all, the wooden kite I'm using now isn't really an airplane, it's just an ultralight glider powered by a motorbike motor made of extremely light materials. The average speed is just over 100 kilometers per hour, and the downwind barely reaches 200 kilometers per hour. This Silk Road is recorded in the geography books, but it is a long distance of more than 7,000 kilometers! I took out my computer and estimated it for a long time, but I couldn't figure out how long it would take me to fly all the way...... After all, you have to consider the physical exertion of the mandarin ducks and ducks when taking off!
But fortunately, when I was looking at the geography book, I suddenly saw a chapter of 'Xuanzang's Westward Journey'! I remember when I was a child in "Journey to the West TV Series", but I saw the scene of gold everywhere in Tianzhu Kingdom!
Now that I think about it, I remember that not only did Tianzhu produce gold, but the wealth there was concentrated in the hands of the upper class. In that case, I should easily trade some luxury goods for enough gold!
"Hmmm! So do it! It's just that I don't know if this 'Tang Seng' has set off now? Will you bump into them on the road? I muttered a few words in my heart.
However, I still studied the hobbies of the people there and found that if for them, those ordinary glass bottles are not enough. So I found all kinds of glass artworks piled up in the corners of the mall, such as glasses and bowls. Only this complete set of glass~ ahhh It is a glass work of art that can attract the eyes of those nobles of Tianzhu Kingdom! And ~ should be able to slaughter them. I have to buy this thing ten times the value of the glass bottle in Datangli!
After preparing these, I hurried to find Nie Xiaoqian, she had already designed a bunch of things for me. Including now, we are making do with the wood and houses stored in the warehouse as building materials for secondary use. In addition, I drove the wooden kite to fly to the bandits' den in the 'clay pot village'. All the houses there were looted and brought back as second-hand building materials.
When I flew here, I found that after the crockpot village was surrounded and suppressed by officers and soldiers, it was completely uninhabited. Originally, the inhabitants of this place seemed to have been relocated to some distant villages, and then became the people of the Tang Dynasty...... And those who are trained as 'bandits' are actually soldiers secretly cultivated by a certain family. Anyway, I can't see a single figure now. I don't know how the imperial court dealt with so many people.
But none of this has anything to do with me, and since there's no one here, you're welcome!
Let the two of them work together, and we demolished all the buildings on the hills of this clay pot village and brought them to Xiaoyu's territory. And then we even found dozens of secret rooms after these houses were demolished. There was a lot of food, weapons and other materials stored in it. There are even fire oil and siege facilities! It seems that the people here are really holding back the thoughts of 'rebellion'!
The only pity is that here I only found an empty treasure vault secret room. Distinguished only by the copper coins scattered on the ground and the small amount of gold, this best-hidden vault was supposed to be a treasure trove dedicated to gold, silver, and copper coins. But now it's been emptied. I looked at the traces outside the back room, and it didn't look like it had been destroyed at all. It is estimated that this place was emptied by the mastermind behind the crockpot village! It's a pity. Otherwise the gold reserves stored here. Maybe it's enough for me to 'tightly' build the main body of the commercial street.
"It's just~ Is this thief so promising? How can such a large treasure trove be stored? I looked at the traces left inside and said in surprise. Even I have a lofty ideal of 'not going to Tianzhu Kingdom, just going up the mountain to be a promising bandit to make money'......
Of course, this is not possible. There are still a whole bunch of people waiting for me at home. How can you be a bandit?
After returning, Nie Xiaoqian looked at the houses I took out and said, "Hmm! If there are so many of them, it should be possible to barely build the main structure of the shopping street. It's just that if you want your shopping street to look non-dilapidated, you have to spend a lot of money to renovate the exterior. Oh yes! The colourful 'lacquer' you used last time was good. Let's see if we can contribute a few hundred barrels, so that we can also make the house made of second-hand materials look more pleasing to the eye! ”
As soon as Nie Xiaoqian said this, I remembered the spray paint I used last time when I took it out to decorate the RV. This girl can't be what she says! Although there are indeed a lot of them in the mall~ But do you want me to take out a few hundred cans? Is this what wants my life? Now is not the time for my reserves to be rich, and taking out so many mall goods now will definitely hurt my vitality! Maybe it will directly consume a large part of my body......
"This~ You know our current situation, we can't support so much paint for the time being, or ~" With that, I first took out all the paint on a counter, including spray paint and other kinds of paint, and I continued: "Or! That's all! First reluctantly decorate a few model houses, and the rest, let's wait for me to return with a full load! Now~ the landlord's family has no surplus grain! ”
"Alright! But your 'show house' is a good proposition. Perhaps, after we build one or two, we can attract follow-up funds...... Oh! Speaking of funds~ During the time you left, you have to let the shopkeeper of the restaurant listen to my command and let me use the funds of the restaurant. After all, you still have to buy a lot of new wood! Nie Xiaoqian said to me as she revised her drawings.
But her suggestion is good. It's just that I'm not sure that anyone will come back to invest more. I've already searched all my acquaintances in the early stage. Although the Qinghe Cui clan also wants to invest more, I still have to guard against some of these nobles. Therefore, they must not be overcharged for investment......
So after thinking about it, I decided to hand it over to Nie Xiaoqian directly, anyway, I know that she also knows the face of the family. It shouldn't cause trouble. Besides, as long as my 'trip to Tianzhu' can be successful, am I afraid that the funds will not be enough? Maybe this trip will be enough gold for me to be at ease for a long time! Especially when I just passed by the 'crockpot village', a sense of 'malice' has gradually risen from my heart. I even had the idea that after going to Tianzhu, the transaction would not lead to a robbery......
"You said that we ran so fast, why should we bother with that, let's just take a hammer and smash the gold there, grab it and run, and let the people there chase it casually, who of them can catch up, right! Isn't it! I muttered to myself a line I had seen in the movie......
I always feel like I've been a little drifting lately......
After temporarily dealing with Nie Xiaoqian's matter related to the construction of the commercial street, I turned around again and went back to my home. I'm not going to take the maids with me when I go out this time. On the one hand, they are always held in the warehouse, and I am afraid that they will be suffocated. I didn't see that Dacao's personality has changed from an obedient and docile maid to a complete otaku. If it weren't for her interest in the affairs of the academy now, I was afraid that this girl would have been hiding in my warehouse and wouldn't even go out! Although the maids of this era are generally not allowed to go out easily......
In addition, big flowers, small flowers, big trees, and small trees, they also went to the academy to join in the fun. Although these girls have not been affected by the movies and TV series that Dacao watches every day. In addition, they did not know how to read, nor did they receive much influence from the knowledge of later generations. But now they have changed their interest in the academy, and they all went to the academy to help. Of course, not as a teacher, but as a 'caregiver' for students! After all, all those students are under the age of ten!
Xiao Ling, the only one who is not interested in the academy, after she heard that I was going to go far away, she pestered me to go together. But I thought it was a dangerous trip. There were suspicious enemies in particular, and I still couldn't figure out what they were trying to do to me.
The only thing I know is that the other party treats me as a 'crammer'. It looks like they're going to 'feed' me to a certain point and then 'eat' it in one go! Although not in the physical sense of the word. But lately, the duck seems to have remembered something about the meaning of this 'eaten'. The person who owns the inheritance will devour each other's inheritance, and then just like I fuse other seals into an antique locket, I will absorb the other's inheritance into my own inheritance, along with his 'summons' and the hidden place...... Anyway, the duck said that when she recalled the past, her original host had been defeated and eaten. I can't remember the specific situation, but the feeling after being devoured makes the duck look back on it now. It is said that it was too painful at that time, so the duck forgot a lot of things.
"Hmmm! Now that I think about it. The main reason why these sects are hiding is probably because they are afraid of being eaten by this hidden enemy! I said to myself.
But I just need to avoid them, and I'm not going to tell anyone about this operation. I just told the maid that there was still a prize to leave for a while, and then I was ready to disappear directly.
And I've thought about it, and when I leave, I'll put on heavy makeup. Let my 'transfiguration' reappear. directly disguised himself as Hu Shang. I guess it's not attracting too many enemies!
The only regret is that I have to use wooden kites for transportation. However, after I arrived at the main city of Tianzhu, I rode directly on a horseback and in a carriage, and changed into local transportation, so that ordinary people would definitely not recognize me. So if I do something 'bad', maybe no one will blame me......
"Hey, hey, hey!"
