I'm sorry, the value of gold at the end of the previous chapter was accidentally calculated by an extra zero, 450,000 grams of gold is not worth more than a billion, just more than 100 million RMB, and it is more than 20 million yuan for a knife, sorry, sorry!

……

Jewelry jewelry, first beads and then treasures, literally understood two meanings. One is that pearls are treasures, which means that a long, long time ago, only pearls could be called treasures. Second, pearls are more valuable than other treasures.

It's not surprising that gold, silver, or copper is also difficult to mine, but for the ancients who did not master the art of mining, most of them were taken from those open-pit mines, which were relatively much easier than pearls.

Despite the fact that Abramo was mainly engaged in the slave business, he still knew a lot about precious items such as pearls. Just at a glance, I already have a very professional valuation of this huge, round, white and flawless "walking bead" in my heart.

Don't look like it's just a pearl, but it's enough for Abramo. At the very least, in terms of cost, with this pearl, no matter what happens in this transaction, not to mention making money, at least I will not lose money.

What's more, after Li Anran threw out the pearl, he also put the purse sewn by Xiangyun himself on the table. Looking at the mouth of the bag that was intentionally untied, it is easy to see the pearls that are equally large and round.

With a huge value of "walking beads" to open the way, Abramo naturally will no longer have half doubts about the ability of the young nobleman in front of him to pay. After letting his orchid serve snacks, melons and fruits, and tea, he said goodbye.

"Young Master. It would be a waste to buy such a good pearl to buy Kunlun Nu, and it would definitely be more cost-effective if it was exchanged for money and then bought. Although it's not the first time I've seen it, I still feel very reluctant to look at those pearls Xiangyun.

"Yun'er, don't be so petty, you must know that you are now the master of a village." Knowing that the Dao woman has no natural resistance to jewelry, Li Anran stuffed the purse into the other party's hand, and said with a smile: "When my Dao Palace is built, you will have to control more people and things in the future, and you will have to adapt to this kind of life from now on." ”

"Young Master. Can I really do it? "I've heard before that I'm in addition to the Joyful Villa. Xiangyun, who will also take over the Liuqiu Dao Palace, is naturally in a happy mood, but he also asks a little unconfidently.

picked up the spice tea that obviously had the characteristics of the Tang Dynasty and looked at it. Li Anran, who really can't stand this way of drinking. Shaking his head, he added the exotic teacup. Then he smiled and said:

"What's wrong with this, look at your time over, haven't you taken good care of the villa? If you really feel a little struggling. There are also Mei'er, Ling'er, and Wen'er to help, anyway, you need to start from scratch and get used to it slowly. ”

"That's right, and Mei'er, hum, you want me to be busy alone, no way!" Thinking that the affairs of the Dao Palace were very important, Xiangyun, who was worried that he was not good at doing wrong things, naturally didn't mind Su Xiaomei and them coming to help him share it.

Just when Li Anran and Xiangyun, who was dressed as a man, talked and laughed in this hall specially used to entertain distinguished guests, and tasted dim sum with foreign characteristics and seasonal melons and fruits by the way, it didn't take long for Abramo to appear again.

"Distinguished guest, please forgive me for being sloppy." Abramo, who performed an Arabic etiquette, raised his head with a smile on his face and said, "The Kunlun Nu you want is ready, and please ask the distinguished guests to go and choose." ”

"Well, let's go." I also wanted to see what the black people looked like in the Tang Dynasty Li Anran, nodded and got up and said.

Soon, the three of them came to a courtyard under the personal guidance of Abramo. As soon as I stepped into the circular arch, I saw a bunch of Kunlun slaves who were not tall but were very strong, standing quietly in line in the open space in the courtyard.

"Distinguished guests, these are all my Kunlun slaves here. The quantity is not too much, but they are all good goods. Abramo, who brought the group of blacks, pointed to the meek-looking blacks.

"Abramo, you Kunlun slaves are all blacks from the South Seas? Is it Negritos or Negros? After pretending to examine these Kunlun slaves in front of him, Li Anran did not say whether it was good or bad, but asked.

"Uh......" Faced with this question, Abramo was stunned for a moment.

There is no way not to be stunned, in Abramo's opinion, the people on the Tang side can't tell the difference at all, or they don't know that there are several types of Kunlun Nu at all. It is very good to know the black people of the South China Sea, and there are few people who know the difference between the Negritos and the Negros.

"Abramo, you don't really think I don't know anything and come to buy Kunlun slaves, do you?" Li Anran said jokingly.

"No, no, distinguished guest, please don't get me wrong, Abramo was just amazed at your knowledge of the Negritos and the Negros." Abramo, who came back to his senses, hurriedly waved his hand and explained.

"Knowledgeable? Hehe...... I can't talk about it, but I just understand it a little. Feeling the look of surprise in the other party's eyes, Li Anran waved his hand very pretending to be polite, and smiled indifferently.

In fact, if you know a little, you are not wrong, although when I checked the information about Kunlun Nu before, I did find content about whether the black people of the South China Sea were Negritos or Negros, but other than this, I really didn't understand anything about the specific things.

But for Abramo, being able to tell the Negros of the South Seas as well as the Negritos and the Negros is already very telling. While congratulating himself for not daring to mess around, this one hurriedly smiled and defended himself:

"Distinguished guest, I, Abramo, pay attention to the authenticity of the goods and the innocence of the child. These Kunlun slaves were all gentle-tempered and down-to-earth Negritos, not Negros with a somewhat irascible temperament. ”

"You don't dare to deceive me, otherwise, you will know the fate of doing this!" After glancing at the other party with a sneer, Li Anran said, "These Negritos look pretty good. However, do these all speak Datang dialect? ”

Don't look at it, just glance at it, but Li Anran can be regarded as a big boss who manages a company with thousands of people in modern time and space, although he doesn't take care of things much, but his status is there. After such a long time, he still has the momentum of some superiors.

No, feeling the coldness contained in that glimpse just now, Abramo was so frightened that a cold sweat broke out on his forehead. While becoming more and more sure that the nobleman in front of him was a nobleman from the Tang Empire, he hurriedly explained:

"Distinguished guests, these Kunlun slaves can speak some Tang dialect, but they don't know much, and there is no problem with daily communication. But if the guest wants them to do more and more complicated things, it's better to ask or buy a tongue man. ”

"Tongue Man?" Li Anran, who was stunned for a moment, realized that this should be the name of the translator in ancient times, and nodded immediately and said, "It's okay, then buy another tongue person." By the way, if I arrange someone to teach them to speak Datang, will it work? ”

"Distinguished guests, these Kunlun slaves also know some Datang dialect, if you are willing to arrange someone to teach them to speak Datang dialect, it will naturally be possible." Abramo, who was about to say that it was not worth it, swallowed back when the words came to his lips.

For this answer, Li Anran is still very satisfied. It's just that the only thing that is not very satisfying is that the number of these Kunlun slaves is too small, and the total number of people is only twenty-seven, and the tongue people who bought another one are only twenty-eight, which is not enough at all.

It's just that when I think about it, I am relieved.

Although the Kunlun slave market in the Zhenguan period was far less popular than in the Wuzhou period, it was still liked by those wealthy families. Basically, as long as there are new goods in Chang'an, it will generally not be long before they will be carved up by those who have money and power.

And the transportation cost of Kunlun slaves is also very high, under the long journey, not to mention what other dangers will be encountered, just the illness can make many Kunlun slaves die halfway, and in the end, those who can live to Datang are likely not even half of the time they set off.

In addition, no matter how docile and capable Kunlun Nu is, he also needs to eat and drink every day. In order to reduce costs, once the Kunlun slaves were transported to Chang'an, they would basically be sold by the Hu merchants as soon as possible, and they would rarely stay in their hands, so it was not surprising that the number was small.
