Section 625 The first commercial port of foreign trade

Ying Li received a joint letter from Zou Yan and Qu Yuan.

The content of the letter is very simple, that is, to discover a very fertile and fertile area, since it is a matter of Zhuxia, then it is necessary to set a rule.

If everyone is going to grab it, it's not appropriate.

Moreover, Zhuxia is one outside, and it is inappropriate for their own people to fight each other.

After receiving the letter, Ying Li took a ship to Yashan Port on the same day.

King Qin and Bai Hui left Yashan when Zou Yan's letter was sent, and the two went to Da Nang together.

Da Nang.

As soon as King Qin got off the boat, he was attracted by the scene in front of him.

Outside the wharf, there is a long street that stretches for ten miles, and the street is five feet wide. The streets were flattened with gravel, and on either side of the street were ditches three feet wide, which drew living water from the land and then flowed directly into the river.

Outside the ditch is the shop.

There are no walls, only storefronts and shelves, and there is a shop every forty steps, and there is a path between the shops, and then there are wooden rafts tied with logs on the ditch from the path to the main road to make a small bridge.

Although it can be crossed in one step, the bridge has every path.

There are all kinds of goods in the store, and King Qin swept over at a glance, and there are combs from the original here.

There are also precious needles and precious iron tools.

On the street, four teams of soldiers were patrolling back and forth, and King Qin could see clearly that these four teams of soldiers were mixed, half of them were Zhuxia soldiers, and half of them were black and thin soldiers.

"Locals?"

"Funan soldiers, I have arranged for someone to teach them simple Central Plains dialect, as well as writing. It's just a street, and the prosperity here depends on the support of the hillside. ”

After Bai Hui explained, King Qin motioned to take a look.

There are also countless shops on the hillside, but the distance between each store is at least a hundred steps, and each store has a huge warehouse, and then there are special packing and transportation channels.

On the mountain path, there were dozens of people lined up, each carrying a basket on their backs, and the basket was piled up far above their heads.

King Qin didn't ask, just stood aside and watched.

A large amount of grass was piled up in front of a shop, and the people who came with the grass had already divided the grass and put it on the scale.

The grass was then put into storage, where the bearers exchanged it for one or more copper coins.

This copper coin is already different from Qin Xinqian.

The difference is only that the pattern and the text, the size and weight are the same, and they are exchanged with Qin Xinqian at the same value, but Bai Hui has set the rules that domestic and overseas money cannot be used.

In other words, Qin Xinqian from the Central Plains is not allowed to be used here. Similarly, the money here is not allowed to be used in the Central Plains.

Didn't say what would happen if it was violated.

But under the order of Qin Dahejun Bai Hui, no one dared to defy the law.

King Qin asked Bai Hui: "What kind of grass is that, it looks similar, how come some have only two dollars in a basket, and some have more than a dozen dollars." ”

"The cheap one is the grass used to make indigo. The expensive one should be some kind of grass used to make spices, as it should be. Spices are more valuable than dyes. ”

After Bai Hui explained, King Qin asked again: "Then, why don't you say that it is a medicinal herb?" ”

"The medicinal herbs are purchased over there, and here is the spice and dye section." Bai Hui pointed to the big sign hanging over there.

King Qin wanted to ask something, but he didn't bother to ask, and watched from a distance as a girl with a basket on her back ran wildly towards the market and plunged into a shop.

Bai Hui wanted to say something, but King Qin stopped Bai Hui: "Don't worry, let Brother Wei take a look first." ”

It didn't take much effort for the girl to run out with a piece of linen in her arms, and then followed the others and walked back from the mountain road from which she had come.

Only then did King Qin ask, "How much money can these people earn in a day?" ”

Bai Huina knew this, and snapped his fingers at the steward in charge of the area, who trotted over.

When Bai Hui and King Qin appeared here, the steward already knew about it, so they waited aside.

"Chen Mo Zhongming, the chief steward of Da Nang Mountain Cargo District, has seen the king."

"The widow wants to know, how much money can those mountain people earn in a day?"

Mo Zhongming replied: "If you go back to the king, this is not accurate. If it is ordinary medicinal herbs, dyes, and spices, ten yuan a day can definitely be earned. But if it is a precious medicinal herb and a precious spice, one day you will get seven silver coins. ”

King Qin came interested: "One day, seven silver coins?" ”

"Yes, the minister does not dare to deceive my king."

"What is it, let the widow see it."

The treasure warehouse is very tightly guarded, and there are special personnel in charge of storage and transportation.

A bundle of half-foot-long, tied with hemp rope about forty to fifty, a huge millipede, that is, centipedes, was held in front of the king of Qin.

"Okay."

Wild, growing so big, this is indeed a high-grade medicinal material.

Next, baskets of reishi mushrooms......

King Qin is dazzled, this is indeed a high-grade medicinal herb garden.

That's not all, a steel box was lifted in front of King Qin and opened, with tree cores stacked in the face: "Report to my king, this is agarwood." ”

King Qin specially asked someone to bring a piece of silk, and then he picked up a piece of wood, and his face was greatly overjoyed when he smelled it.

"This, this is agarwood."

Bai Hui interjected on the side: "Maybe, because there are a lot of fragrances in the core material of the tree here, which one is the real agarwood, and there is also a debate in the Dahe Research Park, so there are four kinds of agarwood for the time being." So, a few silver coins a day is nothing. ”

Mo Zhongming said: "What Dahejun said is that there is only a real agarwood tree that has not been found yet, and these short trees are already very rare treasures. At present, it is difficult to enter the dense forest, and even the locals of Funan do not dare to go deep into the dense forest. ”

King Qin asked, "Where is the difficulty of the dense forest?" ”

Mo Zhongming replied: "To report to my king, the first difficulty is to get lost, the second difficulty is poisonous insects, the third difficulty is the weather, and the fourth difficulty is to have foreign enemies." ”

King Qin nodded slightly: "It seems that if this enemy is not eliminated, it will be a hidden danger to my Zhuxia here." ”

"The king is wise."

King Qin waved his hand: "The edict of the widow, since it is a clan that talks about peace, then it is the friendly clan of my Zhuxia, and the people do not live up to me, and I do not live up to the people." But if you lose my summers, the thunder blows of the summers will inevitably fall, and if you are friendly with my summers, then the business will have faith, and the difficulties will help. ”

"The king is wise!"

There was a shout of chanting all around.

Bai Hui said to the King of Qin: "Your Majesty, it is better to climb high and take a look, there is a Haiyun Peak to the north, the sea and the sky are the same color as the clouds, the scenery is excellent, and it is also good for the king to look at Da Nang, and also to watch the sea, the mountains, and the clouds." ”

King Qin laughed heartily a few times: "Okay, then let's go and take a look, it must be worth seeing." ”

Talk on both sides.

Cliff Mountain.

When Ying Li arrived at Yashan, Qu Yuan and Zou Yan naturally greeted him in person.

Qu Yuan is a straight man, and as soon as he saw Ying Li, he said loudly: "Old man Ying, you can't be selfish this time. There is a very rich place, since you are a family in Zhuxia overseas, then you can't just be for Qin, you must have a public heart. ”
