The mountain that surrounded Qu Tuocheng surprised Wu Fanyang.

Half green and half gray.

The ash is the lower half, more than a thousand meters high.

The green is the upper half, more than a thousand meters high.

Gray, which is bare rock, and green, which is dense woods.

The surrounding mountain is more than 3,000 meters high, which is higher than the mountains on the outskirts of Jinshan Castle.

It's cold and freezing down there, dripping into ice, how can the mountains flourish?

The group looked at it for a long time, but they didn't see the reason, so they had to push the carriage and continue to move forward.

The carriage, which was found inside the castle, is the size of a pickup carriage.

I brought two sacks of coarse salt and a large box of fine salt.

Fine salt, which is processed with coarse salt.

After purifying and removing impurities, the particles are extremely fine, uniform, snow-white, and packed in a 10-centimeter-square plastic box.

A box of three taels, the price of one tael of gold.

The Hunger Sales Law, a city, supplies only 200 catties in a month.

On the same day, when it was transported from Jinshan City to several cities for sale, it immediately caused a sensation.

Coarse salt itself is expensive, and fine salt is only available to ordinary people.

When the wealthy nobles buy it back, they are all used as high-quality seasonings, and they will not be directly cooked when cooking.

They are served on silver plates, with beautiful lids, and served on the table.

Serve with a plate of cooked meat cooked without salt and cover with a lid.

To eat, lift the lid and pick up a slice of cooked meat, with the tip of the horn lightly dipped in the fine salt in the silver dish. Then the whole piece of meat is stuffed into your mouth and chewed carefully.

The meat is fragrant and original, and the salt is mixed with a little monosodium glutamate, which is fresh and fragrant, and it is delicious.

Because when eating, the lid is lifted twice, and the name of this dish is called "lifting the meat".

For a time, the cities of Youtian, Yiluo, and Bayan were proud to be able to eat a piece of meat.

Wu Fanyang pretended to be the boss, and Youshan pretended to be the boss's wife.

Chen Junwen and others pretended to be men, all carrying iron rods.

On both sides of the cave, a stone wall more than ten meters high has already been built, and at a glance, the cave looks very much like a city gate.

Dozens of soldiers armed with sharp blades and spears watched the pedestrians warily.

Compared with several cities such as Youtian, it is more lively here, although it is not a crowd of visitors, there are also scattered merchants coming.

"Boss, Qutuo City has arrived." Youshan said happily to Wu Fanyang.

Several soldiers surrounded him.

"Where did it come from?" A leader-looking soldier asked.

"Master Jun, we are from Badan City." Wu Fanyang took a money bag and stuffed it, "It's cold, let the brothers buy a bowl of wine to drink." ”

In the money bag, there are 50 copper coins of Badan.

The leader untied the purse, looked inward, and took out a copper coin.

"Hehe, it's really the eldest son of Badan, I haven't seen it for many years." He took it into his arms.

"What are you doing in Qutuo City?"

"I heard that Qu Tuo is rich and has a lot of people, so I brought a few bags of salt to break through." Wu Fanyang said with a smile on his face.

"Well, you're right, the merchant." The leader was very satisfied with Wu Fanyang's flattery, and pointed behind him, "Go and inspect the goods and pay taxes." ”

"Thank you, Master Jun." Wu Fanyang was not in a hurry to leave, opened the big box and took out a plastic box and handed it to the leader.

"This is fine salt, which sells for a tael of gold in Badan. We don't know each other well here, I see that the military master has a good face, can we have a glass of wine together? It's also good to ask for advice. He whispered.

"A tael of gold?" The leader was taken aback and hurriedly opened the plastic box.

The crystalline, clear, snow-white fine salt opened his eyes.

He touched his little finger and licked his tongue.

"Well, it's really high-grade salt, and Qu Tuo definitely doesn't have it. Okay, in two hours, someone will come to change the guard, you can go sell salt first, and wait for me at Longmen Restaurant after dark. The leader put on a plastic lid and tucked it into his arms.

He walked to a table with Wu Fanyang and the others.

"Fat Lu, this is my cousin in Badan, I want to open up the salt road to Qutuo, take care of it." He said to an obese man.

"He Ergou, you have a lot of fucking relatives, and they are all indispensable. Let me take care of it every time, and you are going to let my brothers drink the northwest wind? "Lu Ye obviously doesn't sell the leader's account.

"Huh."

Wu Fanyang looked back at He Ergou and was overjoyed.

If the two have contradictions, they can use it.

"Master He, you don't need to say hello, you can pay as much as you want, and I can't embarrass you." He said loudly.

"Lu Fatty, don't deceive people too much, rely on your sister to be a little for the third housekeeper of the city lord's family, and extort here. If this continues, there will be no merchants coming to Qutuo City. He Ergou was enraged and pointed at Lu Fatzi and scolded.

"He Junye, He Junye." Wu Fanyang pulled He Ergou over and said in a low voice: "There is a lot of power behind Master Lu, don't offend easily, just pay a few more, the future will be long, and it will be difficult for us to do business after offending him." ”

After speaking, he didn't wait for He Ergou to say more, and hurriedly ran to Lu Fatzi.

Two money bags were handed over.

One bag of one hundred copper coins, two bags of two hundred sons.

"Master Lu, my cousin is young and speaks too harshly, I hope Master Lu doesn't take it to heart." Wu Fanyang lowered his head and said to Fat Lu.

"Hmph, you want to bribe me?" Fat Lu looked at the money bag on the table, and his face sank.

"Yo, don't dare, don't dare, Master Lu, there are many people, you can only mean it. I will go to the house to visit tomorrow, and if you have money to earn together, you will count it as Lu Ye's share. Wu Fanyang said in a low voice.

Fat Lu snorted and flipped the money bag on the table.

"How fucking dare you fool me, so that you can't get out of the city." He whispered and threatened Wu Fanyang.

"How dare you, I think Lu Ye is also a cheerful person, and I will have a lot of advice tomorrow." Wu Fanyang smiled.

"Okay, it's not easy to see you come from afar, the tax will exist for the time being, and then settle the bill when the salt is sold." He looked at He Ergou, who was puffing up, and said loudly to the people around him.

"Yo, thank you Lu Ye for that." Wu Fanyang hurriedly bowed and saluted.

……

……

As soon as they entered the city, they saw a strange scene.

There are countless caves in the mountains of the city.

Chen Junwen ran over to take a look, it turned out that the entrance of the cave was not deep, dozens of meters, and then there were steps leading to the mountain.

The staircase winds and winds through the dense forest halfway up the mountainside.

Standing in the city, but there are no steps to be seen.

Several women with baskets on their backs came out of the cave and walked past the crowd.

Inside the basket, there are eggs the size of goose eggs, light purple.

"Sister-in-law, raising chickens in the mountains?" Chen Junwen stepped forward and asked.

"Chickens? What is a chicken? The woman with the basket asked curiously.

"Chickens are the ones who lay eggs."

"Oh, you're talking about Bi Fang, these eggs are all born by Bi Fang."

"Eldest sister, what else is there on the mountain besides Bi Fang?" Wu Fanyang stepped forward and asked.

"This is the first time these gentlemen have come to Qutuo City." A woman chuckled, "The people of Qutuo City have to rely on this mountain to eat, pasta, vegetables, Bi Fangzi, and more." ”

"Don't talk about it, Bi Fangzi wants to send it to the public treasury, if a few gentlemen are interested, you can go up and have a look. In the past, there were many businessmen who bought Bi Fangzi from Qutuo, and the price was good. ”

Several women suddenly sighed, stopped talking, smiled at Wu Fanyang and the others, and walked quickly.

The mountain is rich in products that can meet the needs of a city.

To everyone's surprise.
