Yongzhou to Lin'an, if according to the land itinerary, the 100,000 catties of monosodium glutamate, relying on people to carry horses, the year of the monkey and the month of the horse can only reach Lin'an. The prosperity of commerce and trade in the Great Song Dynasty was not unrelated to the smooth flow of waterways.

From Yongzhou to the north, arrived at Jiangling, less than two days. Li Boyan learned from experienced shipwrights that if it was unimpeded, he could reach Zhenjiang in three to five days, and then go south according to the canal, and arrive in Lin'an in less than two days.

It was after the autumn harvest, and the ships along the way covered up the depression. Li Boyan's three large ships of thousands of materials are also particularly eye-catching, this time loaded, not only 100,000 catties of monosodium glutamate, directly all the monosodium glutamate reserves on the Li family Zhuangzi have been wiped out, with the productivity of the Li family Zhuangzi now, the grain purchased in the autumn harvest alone can produce 200,000 catties. Three big ships, full of 250,000 catties of MSG, were all sold, that is, 25,000 yuan.

Now Li Boyan has no liquid funds, and if he wants to gain a foothold in Lin'an, 25,000 yuan is the original capital.

The boat sailed to Gangneung and docked for half a day. Li Boyan and the others got off the boat and drove to Jiangling City. The reason why Li Boyan wanted to stay in Jiangling for half a day was to see how Jiangling, which was bordered by the Yangtze River in the south, the Han River in the north, Bashu in the west, and Hunan and Guangdong in the south, and was known as the "thoroughfare of seven provinces" in ancient times, was developing.

Qiu Jinmei also followed, and after two days on the boat, his cheeks became pale, probably caused by seasickness, and now that he stepped on the land, his face gradually improved.

"There are times when you're scared, Sister Iceberg."

"Call me Sister Bingshan again, and I'll cut your tongue!" Qiu Jianmei said unsteadily.

Li Boyan smiled without saying a word, leaned into the curtain and said, "Seven catties, slow down." ”

The car was much more stable, and the solemnity on Qiu Jianmei's face dissipated, "Go to Lin'an, why do you want to stay in Jiangling for half a day?" ”

"Lao Kang wants to purchase goods, and the bow of the ship needs to check whether there is a problem with the ship, what do you think, go to Lin'an, just go to Lin'an? You have to eat one bite at a time, and you have to go one trip at a time on the boat. ”

Li Boyan didn't decide to spend the night in Gangneung, he was already in a hurry.

Now that the autumn is high and cool, take advantage of the fine weather to transport these monosodium glutamate to Suzhou and Hangzhou, so as not to have extraneous branches.

……

……

Jiangling Mansion is located in the southeast of the town, as soon as he entered the city, Li Boyan felt that the prosperity of this place is not the same as that of Yongzhou. Merchants gathered, traffic was busy, and all kinds of vendors were constantly shouting.

The development of Jiangling is much more prosperous than Li Boyan thought. After reading Zhang Zeduan's "Qingming Riverside Map", Jiangling's current appearance is more prosperous than it. At the river wharf, there are countless boats moored, and porters carry freight, but they are all "let go", "borrow" and so on.

Some officials in charge of transporting the grain and grass they had collected were being loaded onto the ships, which were carried by small boats to the big official ships outside the city. Today, the Cao Yun of the Great Song Dynasty still continues the law of the Northern Song Dynasty, with official transportation as the mainstay, and commercial transportation only accounting for a small head. This is not only because of the problem of commerce, but more importantly, the dispatch of official ships is fast, while the merchant ships are relatively slow. Every year, millions of stones of grain and grass rely on people's transportation, and they cannot be transported until the grain and grass rot.

On weekdays, Qiu Jinmei, who "doesn't eat fireworks", has paused frequently several times, standing in front of the stall to pick left and right. Of course, in Li Boyan's eyes, the so-called provocation of Qiu Jian's eyebrows is to take a few more looks.

If you want to coax a good woman, it is the same in ancient and modern times, that is, buy, buy, buy.

As long as Qiu Jianmei looked at it twice, Li Boyan bought it without hesitation, put it in the basket of the maid on the side, and didn't speak, just walked in tacit understanding with each other.

Sister Bingshan, who shows people coldly on weekdays, actually has a smile on the corner of her mouth. Li Boyan is angry, just laugh at it, there is no expression at all, just like Lao Tzu owes you.

"Fancy it again?" Li Boyan approached and saw Qiu Jianmei staring at the orange bracelet and couldn't take his eyes off.

The vendor looked up and down, and knew that the two people in front of him were not ordinary people, so he smiled and said: "The girl has good eyesight, this bracelet, this kind of color, rare in the world, and then look at the fine lines in it, it is a natural occasion." ”

Li Boyan sneered, just your small mouth will be horned, "What a broken bracelet, this is jade, it is clearly scheelite, not to mention wearing it, I am afraid that it will not be worn for a long time, and this bracelet will crack by itself." ”

The smile on the peddler's face stiffened, "Childe is an expert, eh, there are eyes without beads, there are eyes without beads." ”

Although I don't know what scheelite Li Boyan said, but this bracelet really can't be worn for a long time, if it weren't for its good color, who would bluff people with that inferior material.

"Where did you get this ore from?"

The peddler smiled and said, "The little Chenzhou people, this ore was brought from home by the small one, and the son is good and let the small one go." ”

"Chenzhou?" Li Boyan nodded and left.

Tungsten ore!

In this era of cold weapons, weapons will rust, if mixed with tungsten, iron weapons will greatly enhance wear resistance and corrosion resistance, such a sharp weapon, Li Boyan naturally has to study and study, but now is not the time, Chenzhou tungsten mine, Li Boyan will inevitably go to a trip.

Qiu Jianmei saw Li Boyan's eyebrows fluttering, so he asked, "What business opportunities have you found?" ”

Qiu Jinmei has heard the word business opportunity more than a hundred times in Li Boyan's mouth, and naturally he has learned and used it lively.

"Guess what." Li Boyan laughed and stopped talking.

Qiu Jianmei snorted coldly and turned his head to the side.

"Let's talk about Hao Datong."

Qiu Jianmei still didn't have a good face, "What does it have to do with you?" ”

"The revenge is avenged, and it is better to be happy alone than to be happy. Besides, Hao Datong's turtle grandson also cheated me for money, and speaking out made me happy. Li Boyan didn't want to be happy, but if this matter was held in Qiu Jianmei's heart, he might not be able to show what would happen at the murder scene.

"It's the fate of the three brothers. On that day I went out of the city with them, and went to the small village, where the three of them spent the night in a peasant house, and when they were drunk, and wanted to do the things of beasts, I had no trouble slaying them by hand. ”

"The people above the small village, have you ever seen your appearance? Where did the people kill? ”

Qiu Jianmei said: "The three of them were knocked out of the village by me, dragged out of the village, and killed in the rocky hill. ”

Li Boyan asked again: "Three people, how can you drag it?" ”

"Horses."

"Can anyone see it? Is there a dog barking on the banker? ”

Qiu Jin frowned, "Are you annoyed?" ”

"Idiot! This is helping you! ”

"Nope." Qiu Jinmei said lightly, "Besides, I need your help?" And, eat for nothing? You Li Boyan has a lot of money, and you are still thinking about food and accommodation for a few months? I really see through you. ”

“……”

"Listen to me, idiot, it's ......"

"I don't listen." Qiu Jin frowned and turned his head back.

Li Boyan sighed, I really owe you, and muttered to himself: "I hope that the three brothers of the Hao family will die innocently." ”

In ancient times, the efficiency and ability to handle cases, Li Boyan felt that according to Qiu Jianmei's description, she should not be found out, so he gave up.
