As soon as the cargo ship of the Zhen Merchant House entered Rinan County, Lin Bei received the news from the sergeant.

For this transaction with Zhen's family, Lin Bei still attaches more importance to it, and after explaining to He Ming to guard Linjiang City, Lin Bei and Bian Ji rushed back to Wanghai City directly, ready to receive Zhen Ping in person.

Bian Ji didn't quite understand Lin Bei's approach, he thought that although Zhen's firm came from thousands of miles away, it was always just a businessman, and he or An Zhong came forward to receive him directly, which was already very face-saving, Lin Bei smiled and said nothing, and did not explain to Bian Ji the truth that no business is not rich.

At the wharf of Wanghai City, Zhen's eight big ships slowly entered, and these eight big ships were the same as Jin's cargo ships, and they were all five zhang long, because this kind of ship was the mainstream cargo ship in the Three Kingdoms era, and large caravans used this kind of ship to transport goods by water.

Zhen Ping was the first to get off the board, walked up to the dock, and bowed to Lin Bei, and there was no lack of etiquette at all: "I haven't seen adults for months, and adults are even more beautiful." ”

Lin Bei has indeed grown a little longer, now it is almost twenty-two meters, Zhen Ping has seen Lin Bei several times, but every time he feels that this adult has changed a lot, it seems to be more and more majestic, and it is becoming more and more terrifying, if it is to see other officials, Zhen Ping will not necessarily do this big gift, biased to Lin Bei, Zhen Ping doesn't have to think about it.

Lin Bei nodded at him and smiled: "Don't come unharmed." ”

Hearing Lin Bei speak, Zhen Ping's eyes suddenly widened, and he felt a little frightened.

"Let's go, follow me into the city first, you come from afar, I have ordered to prepare a wine banquet for you."

Lin Bei turned around, Zhen Ping followed Lin Bei in a daze, and only after a long time did he speak softly: "My lord." Can you talk? ”

Lin Bei laughed again, he liked to see people surprised. Zhen Ping was silent for a while, and then said angrily: "My lord is really extraordinary. It is worthy of the posture of the dragon god. ”

Seriously, Zhen Ping's heart was shaken, the dragon god who can talk and the dragon god who can't speak are completely two concepts, and now Zhen Ping has a little bit of a belief that Lin Bei is the dragon god, could it be that the adult in front of him is indeed the real dragon? Thinking about the current decline of the Central Plains, Zhen Ping thought about whether to send an urgent report to the patriarch and ask the patriarch to invest in this dragon god lord, instead of the Yuan family of the fourth world and the third prince.

Following behind Lin Bei, Zhen Ping secretly looked at Lin Bei. Observed the current Wanghai City, the more I looked, the more I felt that this Dragon God Lord was really capable, he had never been to Lurong County before, but then he learned about the information of Lurong County, this county is very dilapidated, I don't want Lin Bei to build the original dilapidated Lurong County so well in just two months, you can see big trees outside, the road is wide and smooth, and the houses are quite neat and clean. Presumably it took a lot of effort to build this city, and in addition, Zhen Ping also focused on observing the residents of Wanghai City, all of whom had ruddy faces. Obviously, life is not bad, and when I saw Lin Bei passing by, some knelt down and some gave up. But there was a fanatical look on his face, seeing this look. Zhen Ping knew that Lin Bei's prestige was extremely high. As long as you say a bad word about Lin Bei in front of these people, I am afraid that you will be beaten to death by these ordinary people.

This kind of prestige is very rare, in addition to Lin Bei's identity as a dragon god, it is obvious that it is because Lin Bei can bring them a good life, so they will be worshiped by the common people.

"But in just two months, Wanghai City has already had this situation, which is really extraordinary, compared with that barbarian city, Wanghai City seems to be better." Zhen Ping compared it in his heart, and then Lin Bei's position in Zhen Ping's heart became more and more important.

Two seven or eight-year-old children came over on two bicycles, then got off the bike, and respectfully kowtowed to Lin Bei, who raised his tail: "Go, don't fall." ”

The two children got in the car again and giggled away.

Zhen Ping kept staring at the bicycle, saying in his heart how could just two wheels run so fast, seeing that Lin Bei didn't mean to explain, Zhen Ping asked, "My lord, what was that just now?" ”

Lin Bei didn't speak, Bian Ji twisted his beard and smiled: "This is a bicycle, a strange thing that was thought up for Lord Longshen." ”

"Bikes?" Zhen Ping read it twice: "This thing is really as its name, on its own, but it can really run on its own, I wonder if this thing can also be bought and sold?" ”

Lin Bei stopped: "Do you want to buy a bicycle?" ”

Zhen Ping nodded, "This thing is very clever, it is very interesting to watch, and the villain does have some intentions." ”

Lin Bei smiled: "Yes, of course you can sell it." ”

It's a fool not to sell it, the bicycle has no technical content at all, Lin Bei has never thought of using the bicycle to make a profit, but since Zhen Ping said that he wanted to buy it, then Lin Bei must sell it.

In addition to the lack of technical content, the requirements of the bicycle for the road are quite high, Zhen wants to buy it back, if the bicycle is promoted, then the person who bought the bicycle is estimated to have to repair the road, which is a good thing for the entire Central Plains, Lin Bei is quite happy to see, in addition, Lin Bei has also thought before, if the roads in the Central Plains are open, the heroes can't survive in the Central Plains, maybe they will go abroad to stir up, if this result really occurs, it will be great, Lin Bei is estimated to have to wake up laughing in his dreams.

"My lord, can you really sell it?" Zhen Ping couldn't believe it, he was so light?

"Of course, not only sell your bike, but also sell you the technology of how to build a bicycle, and with this technology, you Zhen can build thousands of bicycles."

Zhen Ping suddenly felt that pie had fallen from the sky, but then, Zhen Ping was vigilant again, in Zhen Ping's impression, this adult was not so easy to speak.

"Don't worry, I just think that your Zhen firm is also a partner that can be cooperated, and it has been very pleasant to cooperate with several times, so I decided to do so."

"Lord Xie looks up to me Zhen." Zhen Ping was relieved, so it was.

Zhen Ping followed Lin Bei into the City Lord's Mansion, his entourage had other people to entertain, Zhen 13 was also waiting in the City Lord's Mansion, and when he saw Zhen Ping, Zhen 13 hurried to salute.

"Zhen 13 is now the head of my Wanghai City Salt Farm, Zhen Ping, you shouldn't mind, right?"

Zhen Ping could only smile and said: "It is his blessing that adults can afford Zhen Thirteen." He said to Zhen 13 again: "You have to be careful to do things for adults in the future, don't think about the Zhen family anymore." ”

Zhen 13 nodded, feeling bitter in his heart. He knew it was going to be like this.

"Then take a seat."

In this era, the table was not a large round table, but a method of dividing food. Just like what you can see on TV, the owner sits on it. There is a couch in front of you, there is wine and food on the couch, guests or escorts sit on the bottom and on both sides, there are also couches in front of you, if you are more luxurious, you can also call some singers to perform songs and dances, song and dance performances Lin Bei is naturally not interested, Lin Bei sits on the top, and the accompanying guests are Bian Ji and Zhen 13. Zhen Ping is a guest, with Lin Bei and Bian Ji here, and the specifications are the highest.

Symbolically, Lin Bei said: "You wait for your own drinking, don't worry about me." ”

Lin Bei was too scary when he was eating, so at this time he was just making a show, he couldn't put a few whole cows and sheep on the couch, right?

Bian Ji naturally knew, so he raised his wine glass and started to persuade wine: "The shopkeeper Zhen came from afar. Please also drink a glass of wine, this glass of wine Bian Ji will be honored by the master Zhen on behalf of the shopkeeper. ”

Zhen Ping and Zhen 13 hurriedly raised their wine glasses, and signaled to Lin Bei before they drank it all. As soon as the wine was drunk, Zhen Ping's face moved.

It's mango wine, of course. Now it's called Moro fruit wine, after harvesting mangoes. There are a lot left, all of which belong to Lin Bei. Lin Bei originally thought that he should never get tired of eating, but he felt that he was tired of eating only a few mangoes, although he could control most of the instincts in his body, but this body obviously only likes meat, although fruits can also be eaten, but they can't eat any taste, and they can't be wasted, so they can only make fruit wine.

In fact, Lin Bei still wanted to make preserved fruit at the beginning, and finally thought that he had to package it to make preserved fruit, with the current level of science and technology, vacuum packaging must not be there, and it would be broken in a few days, so after thinking about it again and again, it was still made into a bar.

After making wine, it gave Lin Bei a surprise, the mango wine tasted sweet, Lin Bei also drank some, and felt that the taste could bear it, so he could drink a few glasses from time to time.

"My lord, is this Moro fruit wine? The villain has heard some Yi people say that Moro is extremely fruity, and he can't imagine that it tastes more beautiful after becoming a wine, and this wine is not inferior to my Zhen's beautiful wine. Zhen Ping praised.

Mangoes in this era are not something that can be eaten casually, so to speak, even the emperor can't eat them, and people will always like more for the delicious food they have never eaten, and the same is true for Zhen Ping.

"You don't want to buy it too, do you? That's not going to work. Lin Bei laughed and said: "This kind of wine will only be used to reward the victorious soldiers in the future, only the Wanghai City family, there is no other semicolon." ”

Zhen Ping smiled, "Since the adults said so, Zhen Ping didn't dare to win the love of the adults, but Zhen Ping was abrupt." ”

"The nature of a businessman is to chase after profit, what is abrupt." Lin Bei's words did not mean to belittle, such a businessman is the most discerning businessman.

"My lord is really my business." Zhen Ping was also very popular.

For a while, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves, and in this way, after three rounds of wine, Lin Bei also talked about business.

"Zhen Ping, you said that you want to buy this bicycle, I don't know how much you Zhen can bid?"

"Excuse me, my lord, how much does a bicycle cost?" Zhen Ping asked, he was concerned about the cost.

Lin Beike didn't know, so he looked at Bian Ji, who groaned slightly: "Two gold." ”

Wood is worthless, what is valuable is iron, and in these years, the imperial court controlled iron ore, which belonged to armaments.

Zhen Ping asked a few more questions, asking how long it would take to build a bicycle, what skills of craftsmen were needed, and how much iron was needed, now even Bian Ji didn't know, so he could only summon the sergeant and ask the sergeant to call the craftsman, and the craftsman who was called happened to be wood.

After Zhen Ping finished asking, he pondered for a long time before he asked carefully: "My lord, do you really want to sell this bicycle?" With all due respect, although this thing is simple, but the villain looks at it, but it is very clever, if the army is equipped with thousands, the two cities will arrive in an instant, than the horses are not much better, it is rare that this thing does not need food and grass, can run day and night, it is really a thing that soldiers must fight for. ”

Zhen Ping is looking at it from the perspective of this era, what he means is that if there are bicycles between the two cities, because there are official roads, they can be reached quickly, bicycles may be slightly slower than horses, but they are convenient and do not need to be burdened, so it is difficult to say who is superior and who is inferior.

Military horses are armaments, there are not too many cavalry troops in this era, the cost of bicycles is very low, if large-scale equipment, in addition to not being able to fight on bicycles, it is equivalent to half a cavalry, which is enough to change the situation of the war, like this kind of thing, Zhen Ping asked himself, if the Zhen family gets it, it will definitely be treasured as a treasure, where will it be sold.

This is also Zhen Ping did not dare to deceive Lin Bei, if it was someone else, Zhen Ping would buy it without asking, this is a big advantage for the Zhen family. 、

Lin Bei and Bian Ji glanced at each other, smiling at each other, Zhen Shisan could only smile bitterly on the side, and said in his heart, shopkeeper, what are you doing for them? Bicycles are very good in your eyes, but there are even better steam carriages, if this thing is built, it is equivalent to a moving fortress, and bicycles are vulnerable, and this dragon god is not stupid at all. (To be continued......)
