Chapter 4: Climbing the Branches
A pseudo-tree heart, of course, this is also a demon core, at least in Yong'an, this kind of thing belongs to this market to do business. However, when I saw this kind of thing, a few big merchants, you look at me, I look at you, and there is not even a single bidder. Everyone's eyes gradually focused on Mu En's body.
"Mr. Jiang, this thing is definitely a big deal for our industry. Pseudo-tree hearts, as far as I know, even in all the markets in the world, or in other people's collections, there are only three. This one is still so complete, there is hardly a trace of scratches, and it is full of spiritual power, and the original appearance is lubricated and beautiful, and it can almost be said to be an impeccable thing. Such a thing, even if it is on our side, I am afraid that we will not be able to give you a suitable price. This kind of thing, I'm afraid I still have to see who needs it most urgently, and moreover, it's the most willing to bid. Just for the sake of this pseudo-tree heart, it is worth holding a special auction for everyone to participate in the grand event, which can be regarded as an eye-opener together, what do you think?"
"Okay. Jiang Mei agreed without thinking about it. "Anyway, we have enough silver to come to the market this time, and we will have to make all kinds of purchases here in the next few days, ready to explore the mountains again. Then wait here. The auction won't make us wait for ten days and a half, will we?"
"How can this be? You can't wait, the merchants here can't wait. Mu En said with a smile: "The main thing is to give these merchant managers time to adjust their positions to the top, so that the auction can be more lively." In addition, some people will come to the auction to participate in it. The two cities of Taifeng and Xingye are just over a day's journey from here. Auction, in five days, what do you think?"
"Yes. Jiang Mei said, "Is this thing stored here? Or do we keep it ourselves?" ”
"Where do we dare to keep it, please be careful for a few more days. Mu En hurriedly said: "This thing is too scary to hold in your hand." ”
"That's fine. However, now that I know you, please take care of the shopping in the city these days. I guess everyone won't be able to buy and sell here. Jiang Mei arched his hand towards everyone and said easily.
"Of course, of course, that's of course. Everyone present was a person who knew something, and it was clear that Mr. Jiang was making such an appearance in the building, and it was clear that he wanted to open up the situation in the local business district in a high-profile manner, so he deliberately climbed up layer by floor and pulled things for everyone to see. He has so many demon cores in his hands, and naturally there will be no shortage of other items from various demon beasts, and this time, someone has already inquired clearly that these people have only entered Yong'an City for a short time, and they have only brought a few carts. After hunting so many demon beasts and leaving only a few carts of goods, the value and quality of these goods will definitely be satisfying.
At this time, there are already merchants who are ready to go to the warehouse and wait to see if they will start talking to everyone directly.
However, the results may be a bit disappointing for most people. Jiang Mei was not interested in talking about the business of other materials, because he had not finished counting himself, and he had to rest in the warehouse for a while. Although those businessmen were disappointed, they were more reluctant to leave.
Started early in the morning, Jiang Mei asked Peng Ze and Chengbang to take this group of people out for big purchases. There are a lot of supplies needed in the mountains, and the most important thing is basic medicine. Although they have been accustomed to obtaining a large number of high-grade goods from the Ten Directions Mountains to treat the wounded, but the lack of basic medicinal materials, the lack of the configuration method of the monarch and the minister, the harm to the human body is not small, the original time when there is no condition to use it for emergency is good, but if there is a condition, it should try to restore the more normal way of medicine. Although the quantity of each drug is not large, ranging from a few catties to hundreds of catties. These medicinal materials are taken from several medicinal herb stores, and even if they are revealed by people with intentions, they can't see much content from this kind of list.
This is followed by a variety of papers, recently published notes, biographies, etc. There weren't too many of these things in Yong'an City, but they didn't have time to go to other cities in Chu to buy them. Looking for these is to find clues to understand the various dynamics and trends of the Chu State, and to design the wealthy families and their respective characteristics in various places.
The third part is more complicated. Mountains require large quantities of ready-to-wear and fabrics, especially those that are durable and resistant to dirt.
If there is no such supplement, the Yangshan camp will be even worse. All kinds of activities in the mountains consume clothes very quickly, and from time to time they will wear out something, or be damaged by tree branches. Although there are leather clothes and so on, after all, it is impossible to wear leather clothes all year round. In addition to clothing, there are many opportunities to use cloth in a camp. This part of the purchase is basically sweeping. After chartering almost a third of the space in the warehouse, it took the few of them almost a day to fill it. Cheng Bang was responsible for purchasing cloth and so on, and as a result, he purchased a total of more than 400 meters from thickened canvas to the lightest snow yarn. The cloth alone was piled up like a hill.
Grain procurement cannot be on a large scale. On the one hand, because the front-line army is now marching in, food is very important to keep the troops. In order to ensure the supply of front-line troops, to ensure the supply of rations in most cities, there must be a certain amount of reserves, and even include the consumption of fodder, etc., at best, it can buy a month's rations for dozens of people. Moreover, even this ration kept Cheng Bang and Ye Yichen busy for a long time, and the bargaining session lasted for almost an hour.
Everything else is all kinds of bits and pieces, such as seasonings, herbs, tea, etc., as well as daily tools such as scissors, shovels, etc.
The more than 100,000 taels of silver they had obtained from the Demon Core Market soon turned into a large pile of materials that could be seen and touched. It is true that these are all their needs, but they also show their ambition to many people in the whole city: they are really going to stay in the mountains of the ten directions for a long time. The things they sold in the Demon Core Market before have become a footnote to their strength, making this line of people who seem to have a bit of a mysterious origin, and they can attract some people's attention wherever they go in Yong'an City.
Ye Yichen was a little worried at first, whether he would be followed by others, and it would be easy to leak Xingji, putting them in unspeakable danger. However, this doubt was quickly dispelled, Yong'an City was not so cautious and rational at this time, and most people couldn't think about where these people came from and how they could stay in the Shifang Mountains for so long. These days, if you want to do something quietly, you don't need a good reason, there are always various ways. In the past, they may have needed to keep a low profile and run to avoid disasters in the mountains of the ten directions, but now, it seems that this obstacle has disappeared, so they can naturally run out unscrupulously. Even if it is these, there are already a lot of good deeds, combined with the situation of the Chu State, and the brain has made up several story versions, in these stories, almost all the wealthy families of the Chu State, especially those military nobles with strong strength, have been wiped out.
While Peng Yue was buying all kinds of items, he consciously or unconsciously fueled all kinds of speculations, often casually throwing down some specious words, which always attracted more imagination. In this kind of matter, he is very professional, and even Chengbang and Ye Yichen will listen to Peng Yue's opinions in this regard. In less than three days, this mysterious adventure group that had the strength to raise powerful demon beasts and entered the Ten Directions Mountains to avoid disasters had a lot of fruits, and it had become popular all over Yong'an.
Early in the morning of the fourth day, the inn welcomed a special guest. At first, Geng Yekang didn't recognize who the group was. A carriage came to the door of the warehouse surrounded by six guards, and an old butler who looked at him in his sixties who was sitting on the wheel of the carriage jumped down, although the tone of his voice seemed to have deliberately lowered his posture, but he still couldn't change the arrogance in his tone: "Boss, that Mr. Jiang is here in this cargo section?"
"Desire?" Geng Yekang scratched his head and said, "I'm here to find Mr. Jiang again." May I ask you who are ..................?"
Geng Yekang always felt that these people in front of him were a little familiar, but he couldn't remember who they were all of a sudden.
"Boss Geng, in Xia Du San. The old man nodded, and a bland but complacent posture came to his face.
"Ah...... Du Sanye!" Geng Yekang came to his senses, the old man in front of him was unusual, he was Du Sanye who managed all the businesses in Yong'an City for the Du family. Writing. Du Sanye is just a steward, but in Yong'an, who dares to regard this old man who has been in the limelight for almost 20 years as a subordinate and a servant? In Yong'an City, as long as Du Sanye is targeted, it will be difficult to move an inch. However, today, Du Sanye really sat on the chariot as a servant and housekeeper and stood up for his master's family.
What is the situation? They are definitely not here to deal with Mr. Jiang and their small adventure team, right? If you really want to deal with them, you don't need such pomp and circumstance at all, right? Du Sanye fought in the front, and said to Xiaoli, he is also one of the top five people who deter the Du family in the south of Yong'an, this kind of adult, so that he will not be involved in the action to destroy a small adventure group. So, is this really a visit? What kind of situation should it be to let the big man of the Du family come to visit in person? This Mr. Jiang and his adventure group are about to tremble now. As long as the Du family has a word, it is conceivable that they will almost certainly become the existence of a force that can be called a force in Yong'an City, even if they only have so many people now.
"Please let us know. The owner of the family will not reveal his name, Boss Geng, please explain it to us. After all, that's not very polite. Du San said very kindly.
"Yes, yes!" Geng Yekang nodded like pounding garlic: "A few people, wait a while, I'll go." ”
