Section 3: Fairy Ghost Talk

As a general, Li Jing is qualified, as a businessman, he is lame, if a Persian merchant brings a thousand catties of goods from distant Central Asia, and as a result, this thousand catties of goods are exchanged for a thousand catties of copper coins, then he will lose money and can't even wear pants, and the copper coins have always weighed eight catties, and a thousand catties of goods are only exchanged for one hundred and twenty-five pounds, such a business will not even be done by He Shao

, not to mention the shrewd Persian magnates.

The small barrel of wine that Yun Ye gave to Li Jing would be worth no less than ten pounds, and that small barrel of wine weighed only ten catties even if the wooden barrel was counted, so Li Jing made those auxiliary soldiers miserable in this transaction.

However, the auxiliaries didn't care, watching He Shao take out a huge scale, hooking the goods at one end, and holding copper coins in bags at the other, whenever the goods were as heavy as the bags, the auxiliaries happily loaded the goods into the car and put the copper coins behind them.

Yun Ye quietly opened a cargo pocket, and saw that it was full of benzoin, this thing is a good raw material for making spices, and it is also a valuable medicinal material, Sun Simiao has some there, last time Yun Ye had a stomachache, he gave Yun Ye a small point stingily, and after taking the medicine, his stomach immediately stopped hurting, Yun Ye was very impressed. This big bag is a hundred and ten catties, and it can be bought for more than a dozen yuan, which is no different from picking it up for nothing.

The auxiliaries were very generous, seeing that the copper coins were gone, but there were still more than a dozen pockets for the goods, they gave them all to He Shao with a wave of their hands.

The loser was kicked countless times by General Li, and he only dared to lie on the ground and hum. didn't dare to quibble, although in his heart he despised General Li's small belly and chicken intestines, but his face was grateful and virtuous.

He Shao didn't have a penny now, and the ancestral jade pendants on his body were all pledged to Li Jing, so he got all those goods. When the goods were bundled, Sun Simiao, Tang Jian, and Xu Jingzong were hanging out. Lao Sun kept snorting, and soon found benzoin along the taste, and when he opened the bag, his eyes were straight. Without saying a word, he carried it on his shoulder and returned to his ox cart, and He Shao didn't dare to stop it. watched Sun Simiao rob in broad daylight.

The robber was not only Sun Simiao, Tang Jian turned around and ran away with a large piece of agate, Xu Jingzong was more interested in glassware, threw a few pennies to He Shao, and went to chase Tang Jian with a glass bowl.

General Li was finally happy, playing with the ancestral jade pendant of the He Shao family in his hand, and celebrating his fortune with the auxiliaries.

The next day, the convoy continued on its way, the steppe was gradually left behind, and the road ahead gradually narrowed, but fortunately, the auxiliaries received a huge amount of money. Everyone carried thirty or forty pounds of copper coins on their backs, but they did not cry out bitterly, and when they encountered a place where the four-wheeled carriage could not pass, they used a shovel to flatten both sides.

The dog swore that he would marry three wives. One made shoes for him, one talked to him, and the other gave him a baby, as for how to give birth to a baby, he said that he wanted to sleep together, and as for how to sleep to give birth to a baby, he didn't know anything. But it doesn't matter, there is time to study. Now he had three burdens, and each of them contained enough money for him to marry a wife.

Yun Ye was relieved when he arrived in the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and the general Triumphant was naturally received ceremoniously, Tang Jian and Xu Jingzong were also surrounded by local officials in Yunzhong to sing and compose poems, and their lives were as comfortable as immortals.

Yun Ye did not attend these gatherings, and locked himself alone in the room to prepare for the conversation with Tian Xiangzi, he used detailed words to describe the North Pole he knew, and made a special explanation of the North Pole aurora, that thing is not a divine light, don't chase it, or you will fall into the ice cave. Writing this, he wanted to go to the North Pole to see the aurora, shook his head and drove this idea out of his mind, and going to the eternal wasteland under the current conditions is really a good way to commit suicide. Tian Xiangzi They are not stupid, but too smart, smart people will always have some different ideas from others, paranoia is the characteristic of these people, whimsy plus paranoia, if it was something else, they would have succeeded a long time ago, but unfortunately they chose a dead end that will never be possible. …,

felt that Tian Xiangzi would come to look for him in the next few days, but as a result, he did not appear, and Yun Ye left Yunzhong with doubts.

The ecological environment will be good if there are fewer people, the ancient trees on both sides of the mountain road, the forest in early spring is full of vitality, almost no green vegetables have been eaten in a winter, and the eyes that have just been sent out on the grass are salivating.

Bitter bitter herbs, earth bone dragon, purslane, star grass, although it is still in the state of the eye, there is almost no trace on the ground, but dig down with a shovel deeply, you will find the white tender and juicy rhizome, dig a basket, gently copy it with boiling water, put the pepper, pepper, pat a few more cloves of garlic, pour the boiling soybean oil down, a refreshing aroma makes people intoxicated, Shanxi has produced good vinegar since ancient times, boil the vinegar in the pot, pour it on the wild vegetables, eat a bite, it is really a fairy and do not change.

It's not good to eat alone, divide a pot of wild vegetables into several plates, let the guards send them to Li Jing and Tang Jian, and he came to Sun Simiao's ox cart with a plate, Lao Dao has been feeling uncomfortable these days, according to him, it is a cold to the bones, he can't understand the terminology of traditional Chinese medicine, and if he looks at his snot and tears, he will be treated as a cold.

In fact, this is a reaction to the lack of vitamins, the winter on the grassland is very long, this winter Sun Simiao and Yun Ye only eat a lot of meat, although there are tea leaves can barely relieve some of the greasy meat, Sun Simiao is a vegetarian most of the time, it is impossible not to eat meat on the grassland, his body needs to supplement vitamins more than Yun Ye, sure enough, when Lao Sun saw the green fresh vegetables, he immediately had a great appetite, and he ate two bowls of rice in one breath when he ate the tasteless rice he ate just now.

It's a good thing to be able to eat, and there is a sense of intimacy similar to that of relatives for Sun Simiao Yunye.

Every day when the team rests, digging wild vegetables has become a new hobby for everyone, even if it is not as delicious as Yunhou makes, put them into the soup cake, the green vegetables are accompanied by white noodles, which is pleasing to the eye, eat a bowl, and see the green vegetables will eat more.

The Yellow River has just thawed, and huge ice blocks are floating and sinking in the river, which is the most dangerous time for the Yellow River, and no ferry dares to release the boat into the water at this time. Local officials must always be vigilant, and in some narrow, bent places must be supervised by additional manpower, if huge blocks of ice accumulate in these places, an ice dam will soon be formed, and the ice dam will block the river, and the flowing river will overflow the embankment, causing floods, which will always happen to the people on both sides of the Yellow River once or twice every few years. This kind of flood is almost insolvable, except for dredging the river and letting large chunks of ice melt naturally down the water, Datang has little to do with him.

Standing by the river, you can see Hancheng County of Guannei Road, and when you get there, you will officially enter Guanzhong, I don't believe that Tian Xiangzi has the courage to step into Guanzhong, Xitong needs to hide his identity when he goes to Guanzhong, once Tian Xiangzi is a dangerous person is discovered by the imperial court, he will face endless pursuit, and the prestige of Baiqi still has a certain deterrent.

Xi Tong stood under a big tree and supported an old man with white hair, the old man was dressed in sackcloth, stepping on straw sandals, but on his head he was wearing a gold crown, which was inlaid with precious stones, and a pearl the size of a dragon's eye poked out from the top of the golden crown, faintly with brilliance. The old man's face was not satisfied with the dark brown old age spots, and his eyes were also cloudy, this was completely an old man who was about to die, and the luxurious golden crown, the white linen clothes, and the golden straw sandals looked extremely harmonious on this old man.

Yun Ye touched his shabby golden crown, there was only a red pompom on it, the golden crown was still hollow, when grandma was looking for someone to build a golden crown, she disliked the solid too heavy, and now it looks like it is really a bit embarrassing.

When I woke up this morning, there was an invitation on the table, and in addition to the annoying way of delivery, the other qiē were very polite. The words on the invitation are simple and vigorous, and it can be seen that this is the owner's own handwriting. …,

Since people are serious, Yun Ye needs to be courteous, he is no longer a newcomer to your land, and in his two-year officialdom career, he has long trained a simple ordinary public in later generations into a feudal landlord with a clear hierarchy. It is not appropriate to see him in official clothes, and he can only meet him in the most gorgeous regular clothes, which is a kind of respect for Tian Xiangzi.

Tian Xiangzi said very little, maybe it was because he didn't have a body, it was just an ordinary courtesy meeting, so his chest rose and fell, there was a big mat under the tree, covered with a thick blanket, Tian Xiangzi sat at the back of the desk with the help of Xi Tong, and arched his hand to Yun Ye and said: "Jian is slow Yunhou, there is nothing to entertain people in the wilderness, only a little fruit is still available, Yunhou please use it." ”

Yun Ye had already looked at the big peaches on the plate in front of him, the pears were drooling, and when he heard Tian Xiangzi say this, he couldn't bear it, picked up a peach and took a bite, the water was sufficient, but it was not too sweet, the standard greenhouse melon fruit, he took two bites, pouted and put it down.

"Hehe, the melons and fruits in winter are really not in the eyes of Yunhou, as soon as Yunhou arrived in Chang'an, he began to cultivate winter vegetables, presumably these melons and fruits are also common things for Yunhou, right?"

"These are just small paths, the Yun family's out-of-season vegetables are just a dowry for the sisters in the family, as long as the temperature is right, it is really not magical, why did the old gentleman use these things to test Yun, although he is young, he is also a person who has made a promise, how can he regret it."

"The old man is ashamed, with the heart of a villain to spend the belly of a gentleman, and I hope that Yunhou will forgive me, the immortal family has treasures and treasures, this is a truth that is not easy for ten thousand years, why do you abandon it when you come to Yunhou? The old man was puzzled, and he hoped that Yunhou would tell him. When he asked this, Tian Xiangzi suddenly sat upright, and his cloudy old eyes became bright in an instant, as if he wanted to see Yun Ye through.

"The treasure in your heart, took the life of the family teacher, and now because this so-called treasure almost threatens the safety of my family, such a baby, don't do it, you are a treasure, I regard it as a revenge, you want it, take it, just need to give me a detailed map, you may wish to make a description of the surrounding environment and minerals one by one on the way to seek immortals, and come back to me is, I just want to know what is on the land there, whether it is suitable for the people to survive, these materials are my treasures, as for the words of the immortals, It's up to you to make it happen. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
