Chapter 5 Agarwood? That thing is not easy to sell, it is cheap!
To the west of the front yard, there were all kinds of crackling sounds, and Fang Tian walked over slowly when he heard the sound.
This mercenary compound sits on the north and faces south, and occupies a huge area - at least, for Fang Tian, who was accustomed to every inch of land in his previous life, this place is simply too big. The compound is roughly divided into four parts, and the place where he is now should be the residential area, which belongs to the backyard.
The front yard is separated by two walls, and the side yard on the east side is where the cooking is located, and what kind of wells and stone mills are all there.
West Courtyard......
Fang Tian heard the sound and walked over, but saw twenty-three people practicing martial arts in the field, exhaling and exhaling, hehe.
This should be the so-called martial arts training ground.
It seemed that he had almost finished practicing, and when Captain Owen saw Fang Tian coming, he put away the shelf, walked over, and greeted, "Little brother, get up?"
"Commander, you don't have to be polite, just call us Tian. Fang Tian nodded and said, "Commander, are you practicing this martial art?"
"Haha, the guy who eats, how can you do it if you don't practice!How about it? Give advice? It's a pity that Morrich is not here now, he is the magician in our group, otherwise let him accompany you, you and he should have something to say." Owen stretched out his big hand and patted Fang Tian on the shoulder, leading him to the long wooden bench on the side of the field and sitting down.
This wooden bench is the kind of one with a long wooden board and two legs, seeing this, Fang Tian couldn't help but think of the kind of backrest chair in the park in his previous life.
There seems to be no shortage of wood in this world or this place, and when you take the time to get some back chairs to come out, at least it is much better than this bare, even if you sit on it and take a nap, you are not afraid to make a green onion.
Fang Tian fell on the bench a few times when he was a child, and he was quite impressed.
"Dick, did they start practicing martial arts at such a young age?"
Fang Tian saw Dick's little fat man and a few little guys playing bare-chested, practicing there one by one, the frame style was relatively simple, but it opened and closed widely, and the force was very strong. There was also a little fellow, who was about seven or eight years old, and he was actually pushing a stone roller made of big stones.
What was I doing when I was seven or eight years old? Fang Tian thought about it, but couldn't remember.
"It's not small, these muddy boys, the youngest is eight years old, well, that's it, his name is Ogga. Owen was referring to the kid who pushed the stone mill.
Fang Tian nodded, speechless for a while.
Seeing that these adults and little ones were all practicing martial arts, Fang Tian thought of something that might be useful to them.
Fang Tian's father and grandfather in his previous life, and even his grandfather's generations all knew medicine, but the grade was not high. Although it is not the kind that only sells dog skin plasters, it does sell dog skin plasters, and it is also a little famous in ten miles and eight towns.
As the saying goes, medicine and martial arts are not separated, what kind of bone-setting medicine and wine and the like are no strangers, when he was a child, he was soaked in medicine and wine for three days.
Fang Tian himself had never practiced any martial arts, but his father and grandfather were all good at a few moves, and it was not a problem to overturn seventy or eighty people.
Growing up in such a family environment, even if you don't deliberately learn it, many prescriptions and other prescriptions are too ripe to be cooked. If nothing else, let's just say that when Fang Tian was forced by his grandfather to practice calligraphy when he was a child, what he wrote was a prescription!
There aren't many of those prescriptions. Later, after Fang Tian learned some knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine, he also knew that those prescriptions were probably not a regular path. However, there is no doubt that they are extremely effective, and they are a veritable prescription.
However, no matter how effective they were, Fang Tian had no chance to use them in his previous life.
When he grew up, he studied neither Chinese medicine nor Western medicine, in short, it had nothing to do with "medicine"!
The only habit he inherited since he was a child was to meditate, but after sitting for twenty years in a row, let alone becoming a martial arts master, he didn't even see a single hair!
And now, in such an environment, Fang Tian thought that the things he had been forced to learn by his grandfather and father when he was a child in his previous life might come in handy!
However, in the long run, these can be considered slowly, so for now, it is better to settle down and familiarize yourself with the environment.
When it was time to eat, Fang Tian found that today's breakfast was no longer broth and black bread, but instead of tamales.
In fact, the two are steamed and boiled, plus some collocation, and the change is not much. But their taste is really far from the same.
It's also a matter of habit.
For Fang Tian, he can make some meals that are at least delicious by using local ingredients, but for Aunt Rowling, who was born and raised, they have neither the ability nor the habit of changing-
Everyone has been like this, who would have thought to change anything?,
After today's breakfast, Fang Tian still ushered in some of the little guys' singing praises, and a few were asking Brother Fang Tian what else to eat.
Then Fang Tian found that the children in this place were very idle.
Because there is no school to attend.
They don't need to read and write, they can't go out to be mercenaries at such a young age, and they can't even do some chores and the like. A little boy like Dick, who is over eight years old, has to practice martial arts in the morning, while a little girl like Ivy has nothing to do all day.
Fortunately, little Ivy is also nine years old.
In fact, not to mention these children, even Captain Owen, who is a mercenary, does not go out on missions every day, but is completely three days of fishing and two days of drying nets. -- It's not that they're lazy or anything, it's that in this world, in this era, time is used so inefficiently.
Everybody!
Knowing this, Fang Tian sighed. This world seems to be very suitable for the elderly.
But this body of his is only thirteen years old now!
Isn't it a little early to start caring for the elderly at the age of thirteen?
Fang Tian found Head Owen and said that he wanted to go out and walk around the town, but Head Owen decided to accompany him personally. On the one hand, it shows that it is important, and on the other hand, it is really nothing to do!
So, when he went out, in addition to Fang Tian, Captain Owen and a big man named Hammer in the group, there were more than a dozen little radish heads behind.
While walking around the town, Captain Owen explained some things in the town to Fang Tian.
So Fang Tian opened his eyes again. The many things he saw made him feel good at concentration, but he still didn't sigh.
In the slaughtering and selling of meat in the market -
Q: How much is a pound of pork?
Answer: Four copper coins!
Fang Tian converted it, and it was about one yuan in RMB.
Q: What about these pig bones? How much is a pound?
Answer: One copper coin! If you buy more, you can get it cheaper!
Fang Tian burst into tears, remembering that in his previous life, bones were so expensive that sometimes the money to buy one pound of pork ribs could buy two pounds of pork.
Fang Tian asked again, how to sell these offal pieces?
As a result, I was surprised and replied with an extremely bold answer: if you buy pork, these offals can be given away without money!
This is actually nothing, what really made Fang Tian collapse was in the wood market-
Q: How do you sell these timbers?
Fang Tian pointed to those hard-textured and absolutely top-grade sequoia solid wood raw materials and asked.
People spread out a big slap.
When Fang Tian was puzzled, Head Owen explained, one buy five, that is, one gold and five tons!
Well, five tons of gold coins. So, what is converted to RMB...... Fifty dollars a ton? Two thousand pounds and fifty dollars?
This is the so-called tofu price in the previous life?
No, tofu is much more expensive than that!
Then Fang Tian looked in the wood market and lived up to his expectations and found agarwood. Fang Tian couldn't hold back a little and asked tremblingly, how can this kind of wood be sold?
The reply is that although this wood has a fragrance and belongs to fragrant wood, it does not look good, so it is cheaper, ten tons of gold, and there are relatively few people who buy it!
This answer completely made Fang Tian collapse!
Ten tons of gold coins! When converted, it is eighty catties of one dollar, which is 40,000 grams of one dollar!
How can this make those who spent tens of thousands of yuan to buy a gram in the previous life embarrassed?
At this moment, Fang Tian was completely messy.
At the same time, he also has a new understanding of the forty gold coins that Owen and they spent to save him.
In such a price environment, forty gold coins were undoubtedly much heavier than he had originally imagined. It turns out that a magic apprentice, without knowing life and death, can be treated like this!
