In fact, this transaction is not a loss, and the glass beads exchanged for 30 prestige points, Li Yu really does not feel distressed. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

It can be sold directly for more than 3,000 guan, and you can also take out 600 guan in exchange for Zu Heng's gratitude, this deal is too cost-effective!

After a brief consideration, Li Yu hoped to buy some ploughing cattle and pigs, and the remaining little money hoped to buy all salt and soybeans.

There are not many cattle in the Han Dynasty, and some smaller landlords don't even have cattle, but pigs are very cheap, mainly because there are not many people to eat. And the so-called butchers in these years, such as Zhang Feijia and He Jinjia, are actually not pork guys, and they mainly sell game meat (deer and roe deer, etc.) and mutton. Beef may be available, but it can never be sold openly!

Domestic pigs are actually nothing, you can get one in ten, and the wild boar is only twenty and one, which may be more expensive in the north. Zu Heng even wanted to tell Li Yu that if they wanted to eat pork, they could get it, and how many wild boars there were in the mountains.

As for the ploughing cattle, it is more troublesome, even the Zhang family can't get it easily, and every ploughing cow has been filed with the government in these years, and if it dies, it has to be reported to the government before it can be slaughtered, and it is even more impossible to sell the ploughing cattle to the mountain people.

So the shopkeeper sat on the ground and started the price, directly giving the price of 300 yuan, and he also looked like he loved to buy or not. In fact, there are not many businessmen who dare to take risks and do this kind of business with the mountain people.

knew that this was slaughtering, but Li Yu and they had no choice, so they naturally wanted it in the end, and they wanted four heads in one breath, preferably a pair of male and female. It's a pity that the shopkeeper Zhang said that he could only get two ends, and it was difficult to say whether there was a male and a female, so he could only endure it!

With a little money left, I bought salt and soybeans, and soybeans bought 100 stones, after all, this thing is not very expensive. As for the salt, it is still purchased at the original price.

After the transaction was completed, Li Yu followed Zu Heng and them away. Shopkeeper Zhang looked at the background of their departure, but instead of actively stocking up, he found a guy over.

"Tell the county zun that the Shanyue who attacked Lingyang has appeared!" Shopkeeper Zhang commanded directly.

The guy won't ask why, he's just an apprentice, and if he does a good job in the future, he may be promoted to become the treasurer of another place, and of course he may stay in the position of an apprentice for the rest of his life. If you want to be promoted, you must first learn to do more and ask less!

"It's a pity, the combat effectiveness of that village in Zuheng is still very good!" Shopkeeper Zhang muttered, and then turned back to the back room.

Why is the Zhang family willing to do business with the mountain people, even if it is a thief? The main thing is that the mountain people who do business with them are not enough to threaten the Zhang family. It's just a group of reckless people in the mountains, what kind of climate can it have?

But now it's different, Shopkeeper Zhang can see that Li Yu should be a reader, and the key is still an ambitious reader. When this kind of person joins the village of the mountain people, he will naturally not be willing to be unknown for the rest of his life.

If it is developed for Zu Heng, then not to mention whether the Zhang family can control it, and if Zu Heng kills all sides and lets others know about his relationship with the Zhang family, then it is definitely not a good thing for the Zhang family.

In fact, who in the Wuyue region, or even in the Central Plains, did not raise a nest of thieves? Even the Yuan Valve in Runan is said to have a few bandits, specializing in dealing with those small families who have no backstage, blocking the trade routes of foreign merchants, and then dominating Runan and running it into the backyard of Yuan Valve. But these are only put in the dark, and the most taboo is to see the light.

The shopkeeper Zhang's move is to strangle the danger in the cradle!

Zu Heng and the others did not know about this, only that the transaction had been completed, so they paid the tax and started the return journey.

"Brother Xian, 600 guan is already a sky-high price, why buy so many additional goods?" On the way, Zu Heng suddenly asked.

"Since you plan to stay in the village, you naturally have to set up some industries. Li plans to build a pig farm and a plantation farm. At the same time, you also need to hire some villagers to help take care of it, and most of the salt is paid! Li Yu said with a smile.

Where do the mountain people have so much currency, and some mountain people have no place to spend even if they have money. Therefore, among the mountain people, the mainstream is still the primitive trading method of barter. Li Yu took salt as a reward, which is reasonable.

"Okay, I'll ask after I go back, and try to recruit a few more people for the virtuous brother!" Zu Heng naturally reciprocated the favor.

It is said that most of the mountain people rely on hunting for food, but hunting is also dangerous, especially in the wild Wuyue region. Rather than taking the risk of hunting, it is safer and safer to raise pigs by arriving the land.

The village where Zu Heng is located also has a population of several hundred, and there are more than 400 men and women in the prime of life, and there are hundreds of surplus laborers after deducting those who exist as militias.

In fact, strictly speaking, the labor model of the village is very unscientific, and a large amount of labor is wasted. Of course, Zu Heng naturally couldn't see that he didn't have such a high vision. Or rather, in this day and age, this is very common!

Two hours later, since it was already noon, the sun was too hot, and the group took a break on the side of the road. There are occasionally some pedestrians on the official road, except for those who are in a hurry, and those who are not in a hurry also choose to rest on the side of the road.

The villagers of each village took out dry food, and hundreds of people in the group ate it like this. This polder is over, and the next one may be in a month, or three months later. At this stage, they will act together for the time being, and later they will act separately according to the location of their respective villages, until they return to their own villages.

There were five or six young men who were on guard around them, and they were close to the mountains and forests, and they couldn't tell when a leopard or a tiger would see them and come down the mountain to attack.

Originally, everyone was talking and laughing, but they didn't want to suddenly change their expressions one or two, and several of them immediately lay on the ground and listened. This is a skill unique to mountain people, who can judge the large prey, herds, and even armies around them by listening to the vibrations on the ground!

"A team of five hundred people, it sounds like it should be an officer army!" It didn't take long for them to get up and report.

"This is not a normal march, this is a rush, and the officers and soldiers are really coming!" Someone else added.

"Damn it! Enter the mountains now! Zu Heng immediately understood something, and quickly got up and shouted.

Zu Heng had a high prestige in the surrounding villages, so as soon as he shouted, everyone immediately ran up and quickly entered the mountains and forests. No matter how stupid Li Yu was at the moment, he also realized that the officers and soldiers were only afraid that they were coming at them, how dare they slack off, and immediately fled into the jungle with Zu Heng and them.

"Mr. Escort will return first, and we will take care of it here!" Zu Heng knew that Li Yu's body was weak and unsuitable for war, so he found two henchmen and commanded.

"What are you going to do?" Li Yu asked hurriedly.

"We can't die, let's go back to the village to meet these officers and soldiers!" Zu Heng smiled and said, he could hear that he really didn't take those officers and soldiers seriously.

"Then please take care!" Li Yu bowed and left in a hurry. He knew in his heart that even if he stayed, he would just be a burden.
