Ava smiled and said to Li Zhi, "You shouldn't be beating people's ideas about this city, right?" ”

This Byzantine Empire is not comparable to those small countries, even if Li Zhi's idea of wanting to fight others is not so easy.

Li Zhi came out this time to take his woman on his honeymoon, he naturally wouldn't do this thing of fighting and killing, otherwise what a big mess of scenery, Li Zhi thinks that he is a very stylish person, but he is not one of those martial artists who only knows how to be rough.

When you can't attack a country, how can you choose this time?

The combination of the seven of them entering Constantinople is still very eye-catching, but the soldiers guarding the city gate did not ask much, the ethnic composition of Constantinople is originally more complicated, although Li Zhi and they are all yellow-skinned, black-haired, and different from the Caucasian, but this era is not divided into black, Caucasian, and yellow people, these three races with different skins, so the people of Constantinople only regarded them as a relatively special nation, and did not interrogate.

The opening up of Constantinople reminded Li Zhi of a sentence, that is: openness and tolerance make civilization prosperous, and conservative and narrow make civilization decline.

The Byzantine Empire was able to become a thousand-year-old empire, and the openness of civilization was definitely an extremely important reason, which Li Zhi thought he should teach his children and grandchildren in the future.

Constantinople, the capital of Byzantium, is located at the crossroads of Europe, Asia and Africa, and has been a place where merchant ships from all over the world have gathered since ancient times, and it is also the end point of the Silk Road.

Byzantine imports consisted mainly of silk, furs, slaves, grain, precious wood, aromatics, dyes, ivory, precious stones, exotic animals, and other luxury goods, while exports included glass, mosaics, fine silk and brocades, weapons, wine, gold and silver currency, jewelry, and handicrafts. Byzantine currency remained stable for a long time.

The degree of development of the Byzantine economy needs to be learned by the Later Tang Dynasty, and the current Later Tang Dynasty is not famous, so naturally there is no qualification to carry out foreign trade. After seeing Constantinople's developed commerce, Li Zhi decided to learn from Constantinople in the direction of the development of the Later Tang Dynasty.

Admiring the exotic scenery of Byzantium makes them feel good, but one thing is quite troublesome, that is, the currency of Byzantium is different from theirs, so if you want to shop, you must get money first.

Li Zhi quickly solved this point with his clever brain, he did not have the gold coins of Nomismata used by the Byzantines, but he had other valuable things on him, as long as they found a pawnshop or something, they could naturally exchange it for money.

With the existence of cheats such as science and technology factories, Li Zhi can use high-tech language tools to convert his language into the local language wherever he goes, which is how he helped Li Tai and others in Jupis and other countries back then, and when he came to Byzantium, he naturally concocted the same.

This method surprised Catherine's six daughters, and Miss Li, who has always spoken casually, no, she should not be a girl anymore, she smiled and teased Li Zhi: "If you have this kind of tool, can you directly communicate with a dog on the street." ”

Li Zhi could only be speechless for Li Ningxiang's whimsical ideas, but he also had to admire Li Ningxiang's imagination, her idea had indeed been solved in the face of a powerful science and technology factory, but it was not for people to learn the language of dogs, but to sense the inner thoughts of animals through telepathy, this technology is called telepathy.

After asking a passer-by, Li Zhi walked to the nearest pawnshop.

The pawnshop is a good place, as long as there is a pawnshop, Li Zhi doesn't have to worry about money, and he doesn't have to eat overlord meals.

Although eating the overlord meal is a very exciting game, Li Zhi has to consider his identity, in case eating the overlord meal is spread out, then he, the emperor of the Later Tang Dynasty, can directly take a piece of cloth and cover himself to death.

Li Zhi was naturally not prepared to come up with any high-tech products to be destroyed, he was also worried that this technology would be learned by the Byzantines, although he had countless technologies, but he was not prepared to let any kind of technology spread to these colorful hair races.

In his mind, the technology in the technology factory can only be mastered by noble Chinese people.

He casually took out three night pearls from his body and said to the pawnshop owner: "These are three night pearls, I want to give them to your pawnshop, I don't know if the boss can accept this thing?" ”

The pawnshop owner looked like a shrewd businessman, so he naturally wouldn't believe that these three beads that looked good were the pearls of the night just because of Li Zhi's words.

So he immediately asked the guy to find a huge step and cover him and the three Night Pearls in it to verify the authenticity of the Night Pearl.

In this era, the night pearl is a great treasure for both Chinese and Westerners.

The Night Pearl is a group of luminous materials in the planet's earth that have been concentrated in ore for tens of millions of years, from the initial volcanic magma eruption to the later geological movement. The Pearl of the Night is a natural, historical, and cultural mystery that exists simultaneously in several of the world's most outstanding ancient civilizations. According to historical records, the prehistoric Emperor Yan and Shennong have found overnight pearls, such as Shennong's King of Stone Balls, known as "Night Mine". In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, such as "Hanging Li" and "Weeping Thorns", they are priceless and comparable to the Bi. At that time, only the big officials Tao Zhugong (Fan Li) and Yidun (a big merchant during the Warring States Period) could afford it. The Jin State once used the "weeping thorns" as a bait to "fake the head and Yu to compile on behalf of the editor". Doctors from Chu, Qin, Wei and other countries once used the night pearl to imply philosophy and discuss national affairs. Qin Shi Huang was buried in the night pearl, in the mausoleum "to replace the anointing candle". Empress Guangwu of the Han Dynasty's younger brother Guo Kuang "hung pearls and hung on all sides, looking at them like stars during the day and like the moon at night" to show off his wealth. Wu Zetian gave Xuanzong the jade dragon in the night pearl, and Xuanzong returned to the son (Shizong) to clear the pearl and illuminate a room. When Tang had a car, a night pearl called "Water Droplet" sold for hundreds of millions. During the Song, Yuan, and Ming dynasties, the royal family was especially fond of night pearls.

As far as the pawnshop owners know, even their Byzantine royal family does not have a few night pearls, and they are not in good condition, and they are not very big.

So after verifying the authenticity of Li Zhi's three night pearls, the boss was ecstatic in his heart, he felt that his day of emergence had come, as long as he dedicated these three night pearls to a member of the royal family, then his status would inevitably rise and become an upstart in Byzantium.
