After Jiang Jiang and Yuwen Zhengji got on the boat, because Yuwen Zhengji could speak the native dialect, they were very valued, so the two of them were treated very well.

Seeing that they were dressed in tattered clothes, the shipowner offered to give them two sets of beautiful clothes, both of which were suitable for their figures, with both inner and outer clothes, and ordered someone to bathe and change their clothes.

Jiang Jiang changed into Ha Guo's clothes, thought it was very interesting, and quickly asked Yuwen Zhengji to help her ask for a big beard to stick on her face.

"What are you doing with your beard?" Yuwen Zhengji asked Jiang Jiang: "Do you like to pretend to be a man so much?" ”

"Do you understand? This is called following the local customs, and I want to get along better with the Kazakh people, so I wear their clothes and imitate their dress," Jiang Jiang rolled his eyes and said, "You see that although we don't understand the language now, don't we get along very happily?" ”

When she was a child, she watched news broadcasts on the news broadcasts, and when the heads of various countries visited foreign countries, they would wear the clothes of that country to show respect, and it was also for the sake of being close to the people. This is called diplomatic etiquette, and Jiang Jiang still understands it.

"Don't say it, what you said really makes a little bit of sense, then I'll put on a mustache too." Yuwen Zhengji observed it and couldn't help but agree with Jiang Jiang's words.

"How much will this ship pay you for hiring you as a guide?" Jiang Jiang thought of this and asked Yuwen Zhengji.

"He paid half of the deposit first," Yuwen Zhengji said in a normal tone, "It's only 10,000 taels of silver." ”

"Ten thousand taels!" Jiang Jiang was very excited: "You give me this ten thousand taels, anyway, don't you owe me five hundred thousand taels?" "50,000 taels of gold is not 500,000 taels when converted into silver!

"Why are you in such a hurry? I won't give it to you when I get to the shore, wouldn't it be better to give you 500,000 taels together? Yuwen Zhengji said.

"Then you borrow me first, I want to use the money." Jiang Jiang said.

"What are you doing with the money, haven't you gotten off the boat yet?" Yuwen Zhengji had to ask to find out.

"I want to buy something on the ship," Jiang Jiang said honestly: "If this ship arrives at the port, the price of things will rise, and it is not as cheap as buying it on the ship." ”

"You can settle accounts," Yuwen Zhengji said with a smile, "But, you used to embarrass me, and now I embarrass you." If you can earn a thousand taels on this ship, I will give you this ten thousand taels first. ”

"Okay, you actually took the opportunity to take revenge on me," Jiang Jiang looked at Yuwen Zhengji, his eyes were full of resentment: "Do you want me to find a chance to beat you again?" ”

"If that's the case, it's even more difficult for you." Yuwen Zheng thought in his heart, but what he said was: "I have to see if you have the ability to win my trust?" Besides, I don't think my question is too difficult, it's worth it no matter how you think about it. ”

"Alright! I'm going to fight," Jiang Jiang said, "but I'll have to think about how to make money from these bearded men first." ”

"I can provide you with a chance," Yuwen Zhengji said kindly: "On the merchant ships of the Kazakh people, Udomcha will be held every night, which translates to the Saibao Conference, and the participants will take out the treasures in their hands for auction or exchange, if you also have treasures to take out, won't you be able to make money?" But do you have any treasures on you? ”

The two of them disguised themselves as beggars and wandered to a desert island, with nothing to grow, what treasures are they talking about?

"Who says I don't have a baby?" Jiang Jiang smiled smugly.

What is a treasure in this world? Naturally, scarcity is precious.

If a steamed bun and a piece of gold are compared to whom, do you say is more precious?

It depends on who you are talking to, for a person who is in a desperate situation and is dying of starvation, a steamed bun is worth much more than a piece of gold.

And Jiang Jiang thought to herself that the things she brought must be very rare on this ship.

After Jiang Jiang and the others got on the boat, they had lunch with the Kazakh people. Then, after a good rest, it's time for the evening.

After dinner, people began to walk to the hall of the cabin, where there were bright fish oil candles and a large square table with a pure white blanket in the center.

The short man who first discovered them, the one who was in charge of organizing the Saibao convention, and who was also the host, was standing at the table, and his name was Li Geleng.

"You see, he's talking about the rules of the Saibao Conference," Yuwen Zhengji began to translate to Jiang Jiang: "Those who want to participate in the competition stand on the left hand side, and everyone else stands on the right hand side, according to the order of the queue, present their treasures in turn, say the reserve price in their hearts, and then those who want to buy can increase the price." ”

Isn't that the same as an auction? Jiang Jiang thought to himself.

Sure enough, after the man finished announcing the rules, the Harbinese, who was in first place on the left, came to the stage with a beautifully decorated box.

What he showed was a purple pearl, round and large, very beautiful.

The people who can go to sea to do business are very powerful businessmen, and their family assets are abundant, and they are extraordinary as soon as they make a move.

In fact, everyone is a businessman, and they know everything and everything very well, and the reason why there is a Saibao conference is just to pass the boring time on the ship, and to take the opportunity to show off their wealth.

As soon as Yuwen Zhengji turned around, Jiang Jiang was gone, and when she looked again, she had already run to the left-hand side to line up.

"Hey, what treasure do you have to take up?" Yuwen Zhengji didn't expect Jiang Jiang to come really.

"Of course I have a baby, otherwise why are you here?" Jiang Jiang shook the small cloth bag in his hand, which was bulging inside, and he didn't know what it contained.

"What's in there?" Yuwen Zhengji asked Jiang Jiang.

"The secret of heaven must not be revealed," Jiang Jiang said with a smile: "You can also participate in the treasure hunt for a while, don't you have a deposit of 10,000 taels?" ”

"You even beat my idea, it's really born to do business." Yuwen Zhengji said.

"You don't have to praise me so much, I'm just so good!" Jiang Jiang raised his eyebrows, and lined up seriously.

The first merchant's purple pearl was exchanged for a red gold statue by the shipowner, Harrahs.

The second person took a fist-sized piece of ambergris, Jiang Jiang knew that this thing was condensed from the secretion of sperm whales, and it was an extremely precious spice, so he was immediately a little eager to try, but he didn't have the strength now, so he could only look for opportunities in the future.

The Kazakh people in front of her offered their treasures one by one.

In the end, it was finally Jiang Jiang's turn.

The host was a little surprised, but also pleasantly surprised, such a small episode is also a spice to their lives.

"Honorable guest Daqin, may I ask what kind of treasure you want to show?" The host Li Geleng asked.

Of course, these words were translated by Yuwen Zhengji to Jiang Jiang. "Everyone, please take care of my baby," Jiang Jiang had a beard sticking to his face, and when he spoke, his beard moved: "Dangdangdang"

Jiang Jiang carefully poured the contents of the cloth bag onto the table.

"Wow," everyone present exclaimed.

This was followed by a clattering noise.

"Please be quiet, listen to what the treasure lord has to say?" The host shouted, his shortest but very tall voice.

Sure enough, everyone quieted down and waited quietly for Jiang Jiang to bid.
