Chapter 134

And at this time, in the Wude Palace, the foursome were looking at a small piece of things in front of them and were delighted.

Flying Pig Lao Xue swallowed a mouthful of saliva and stretched out his hand to touch the pale yellow crystal wrapped in the cloth, but Wang Fatzi directly knocked his hand off.

"This is a sample, don't you keep thinking about whether it's good to eat?!"

"This is Brahmin stone honey?!"

Flying Pig Lao Xue swallowed another mouthful of saliva.

This is a rare commodity, where have ordinary people seen it.

Ye Xiaoniang smiled and nodded.

"That's right, this is Brahmin stone honey!"

This is not white sugar, it is more suitable to say that it is rock sugar, it is a light yellow crystal.

In this era, the name of crystalline sugar is Brahman stone honey, according to the original historical trajectory. This will also have to wait until Wang Fatzi grows up, directly destroys a country in Tianzhu, and then brings back ten sugar craftsmen to produce it.

It was a problem for people in all dynasties to eat, but it was rare to hear that the Tang Dynasty had starved to death.

Why?!

I just thought it was sugar!

During the reign of Li Shimin in the early Tang Dynasty, there were only 2 million households registered in the Tang Dynasty, about 10 million people, plus the unregistered displaced people, the total number did not exceed 20 million.

There are fewer people and more places, and most importantly, when Li Shimin's policy of recuperation came out and the population grew, Wang Fatzi brought back the recipe for making stone honey.

After refinement, this new luxury was called sugar.

The reason why sugar is a luxury is because its price is indeed high, even in the Ming Dynasty, in foreign trade with Japan, a pound of sugar can also be exchanged for a load of grain.

A load of grain is about four or five hundred catties.

What kind of concept is this?!

It is equivalent to a pound of white sugar, which was sold for hundreds or thousands of yuan in later generations.

Moreover, this thing is easy to carry, and Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty is one of the most famous foreign trade cities in this era.

Countless pieces of sugar and porcelain were transported from Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty to neighboring countries and even the Byzantine Empire.

Just as the Chinese people were called CHINA because of porcelain in the future, the place where the Chinese people gathered was called Chinatown, and it is very likely that it is inextricably linked to sugar.

Not to mention a strange custom in one place.

A woman's teeth are black after eating too much sugar, but she thinks she is a beauty.

All in all, sugar is a lucrative commodity in this era.

Now that the samples have been made, the next step is to consider the distribution location.

Wang Fatzi also took a share, and at this time, after seeing that this thing was really made according to Ye Xiaoniang's method, he said excitedly.

"I've contacted a reliable tooth shop here that can help us distribute this stone honey."

Hearing Wang Fatzi's words, Ye Xiaoniang shook her head.

"A family can't do anything! You contact a few more, since you want to do it, you must seize the entire market in the shortest possible time, and suppress the tooth shop on the side of Brahmin stone honey. My idea is to set up a stone honey sales guild belonging to our Datang here in Chang'an! ”

The so-called tooth shop is a merchant that has been approved by the Tang Dynasty government to franchise a certain commodity.

It is mainly strategic resources such as salt and iron.

For something like sugar, the price is high, and it seems a little inappropriate to elevate it to the position of a strategic resource, right?!

Wang Fatzi was a little embarrassed.

"We may not be able to call the shots in this matter!"

Although those merchants in Yaxing have always been despised by the Tang people, it does not mean that they are powerless.

Although the status of merchants in all dynasties was very low, they were a force to be reckoned with. For example, Fan Li, and Shi Chong, who was rich in the former dynasty, these big businessmen are often

In the Tang Dynasty, the tooth line was already very popular, and various guilds had appeared.

These guilds monopolized most of the goods.

And at this time, the task of the system was also released.

[The main task of the system is released, and the Datang Dragon Tooth Chamber of Commerce is established. 】

[Merchants are a force that cannot be ignored in history, and Yaxing has mastered the economic lifeblood of this era. Since you already have the strategic weapon of sugar, you can establish the Tang Dragon Tooth Chamber of Commerce, the business of the world, and strive to operate your own first force. 】

Hearing this, Ye Xiaoniang was stunned.

[System, you are playing the rhythm of the Royal Chamber of Commerce in Datang! ] 】

There's nothing wrong with that! In the early years of the Tang Dynasty, wars continued, war was peace, and trade was also peace! 】

[Going to the army to fight?! 】

[That's right! Diplomatic problems that can be solved by economic means do not necessarily have to be solved by means of war. You've been on the battlefield, and you naturally understand that war kills people. 】

[Do you think that for those soldiers who died on the battlefield, there is a difference between justice and evil in war?!] 】

Hearing the system's explanation, Ye Xiaoniang also remembered those dead soldiers on the battlefield with Luo Yi.

Some are indeed deserved, such as those who later ~raped~*** women.

And some died in vain, such as Zhao Cihao, and even the soldiers in Zhao Cihao's mansion who were killed by themselves.

I thought of the general who knew that he was invincible but still generously went to his death.

Soldiers, murder weapons, saints have to do it.

This is not an empty phrase.

There is right and wrong in man, but there is no distinction between good and evil in war.

If you can use other means to achieve the goal of peace, why start a war?!

Thinking of this, Ye Xiaoniang fell into deep thought.

[System side quest release, the first business, from the Taiji Palace. 】

[Now as the drafter of the Datang Dragon Tooth Chamber of Commerce, because the Datang Dragon Tooth Chamber of Commerce has not yet been established, you must first get the approval of the Dragon Tooth Bank and negotiate the first business. 】

[Work hard, host, one day, you will fly the flag of the Tang Dragon's Tooth on the sailing ship of the Mediterranean. 】

It's unreliable!

This system is crazy!

In this era, although the Tang Dynasty also had shipping, it was only limited to a few surrounding countries.

You want the economy to invade the whole world.

Have you ever thought about the feelings of Kunlun slaves and Silla maids?!

And your first business is going to be Taiji Palace, why don't you go to heaven?!

You must know that even if it is a purchase in the palace, it is also a discussion with the Shangshan Bureau in the Yeting Palace.

His Majesty Li Er has a lot of opportunities, how can he directly place an order for the Dragon Tooth Chamber of Commerce?!

However, since it is a dental business, it is natural to approve it if you want to do business.

Thinking of this, Ye Xiaoniang was silent for a moment before picking up the sample that had just been made.

"Little lady, where are you going?!"

Watching Ye Xiaoniang walk outside, Li Beiwang asked.

"I'll talk to the Queen about it."

"I'll go too!"

Li Beiwang also realized the importance of such a thing in Ye Xiaoniang's hands.

It is highly likely that the future Datang will change because of that kind of thing.

And now Ye Xiaoniang's external identity is the princess of Beiping, so it is better to follow by herself.
