The merchant ship successfully anchored at the Liangzhou ferry, and the caravan and the accompanying merchants counted the goods before continuing to move forward. It's just that the scenery here is very different from that of Luozhou, you can see the rolling mountains in the distance, and the clothes on the pedestrians are mostly cotton and linen fabrics.

It can be seen that the conditions here are a few grades lower than those in Los Angeles, but the people have a cheerful personality, and the sound of talking and laughing can be heard from afar, which is very infectious.

"Girl, this Liangzhou produces a kind of honeydew melon, which is very sweet, and I will buy it for the girl to taste when I rest." Chunhong saw that Tang Lin had been looking out of the carriage with great interest, and couldn't help but speak.

Tang Lin was a little surprised: "Have you been to Liangzhou?" ”

"Well, Daddy brought me here once when I was eight years old." Chunhong pinched the corners of her clothes a little embarrassed, she had eaten it once, what if the melon she bought was not sweet?

In the past few days, Tang Lin has long known the conditions of Chunhong's family, if it weren't really difficult, a girl would not be willing to follow the west to buy her life, and said with a smile: "Then I will definitely have to taste it for a while." ”

In the end, the melon was eaten in the carriage, because Mr. Qiu decided to hurry and wait until Yuzhou to rest, but as Chunhong said, the melon was really sweet, but unfortunately the skin was very thin and soft, and it was not suitable for carrying.

Non-stop hurry, they finally came to Yuzhou, Yuzhou is the westernmost state and county of Dahan, out of Yuzhou, it is equivalent to really leaving Dahan, the same name of Yuzhou City, is the richest town in Yuzhou, but also the place where Yuzhou County is located.

The caravan stayed in Yuzhou for a day, one was to replenish some supplies, and then to rest, after all, after leaving Yuzhou, the really difficult road to the west could be regarded as the beginning.

Mr. Qiu went to the county guard office to stamp the paperwork needed for customs clearance, while Tang Lin followed Xiao Wu and the others to purchase supplies, and listened to the people who walked by the caravan say that they often had to go to the desert where water and food were crucial.

Xiao Wu and the others bought mostly dry food and dried meat that were easy to preserve, Tang Lin was helping on the side, and heard someone next to him talking: "Have you bought grain at home, I heard that the grain station has new grain, why don't you save some quickly?" ”

"One stone costs 700 yuan, how can there be so much money in this chaos!" Another person sighed.

The person who spoke before also sighed: "Fortunately, our Dahan army is powerful, otherwise we would not dare to save some food, like a few years ago, it was not robbed by the Xirong people......"

Tang Lin was dumbfounded when he heard it on the side, a stone of grain costs seven hundred yuan?! It's a robbery, right?

"Xiao Wu, why is the price of grain in Yuzhou so expensive?"

Xiao Wu was pretending to be jerky, and before he returned, the shopkeeper opened his mouth first: "The little girl is coming to Yuzhou for the first time, right?" The price of grain in the northwest has always been like this, and it will be even more expensive when it catches up with the war. Alas, our northwest is barren, and the people are digging in the fields, that is, they will not die of hunger, if the year is not good......" he said and shook his head.

Before traveling west, she deliberately went to check the territory of Dahan, the northwest is actually very vast, just say that this Yuzhou County, a county can be worth the size of three Yuezhong counties, but compared with Yuezhong, which has the land of fish and rice, this Yuzhou is barren and not good.

People have to eat when they live, no wonder food is sold so expensive!

Tang Lin couldn't help but sigh: "No wonder you want to say 'the world is based on agriculture', this grain is too important." ”

The old man who was sitting in the shop waiting for the servants to buy dried meat heard this, and his eyes couldn't help but look at Tang Lin, and said with a smile: "That's a good point, Fanshi farmers and businessmen, which one doesn't need to eat?" So there is a saying that 'the world is based on agriculture, and business is the end', the little girl thinks this is right? ”
