Chapter 66 Trident and Spirit Fish (Asking for Monthly Votes)
There are many shops in Gaoliu County where you can buy daily necessities and some rare items, but most towns and villages naturally do not have such a complete range.
***, naturally, it rises with it.
In Gaoliu County, a big market is set up before the end of the year every year. Merchants from nearby towns and even neighboring counties will come, and it is very lively and prosperous.
But in addition to the end of the year, there is also a *** at the end of June every year before the autumn harvest.
The scale is not as large as the one at the end of the year, but it is also very lively.
At dawn, Li Yuan heard the chaotic voices of people. During the big market, all urban areas are very lively.
Get up, stand, wash...
Li Yuan waited until the sky was bright before getting up to go to the market.
All kinds of vendors set up their stalls early, and at dawn, the streets and alleys were full of pedestrians.
In addition to the people in the city, the people in nearby towns and villages will also come early, bringing their accumulated silver to buy things needed by the whole family.
Li Yuan found a breakfast stall. The stall owner was a familiar face. When he saw him from a distance, he started to make arrangements.
As soon as Li Yuan sat down, the small table was already full.
Rice porridge, hot soup, steamed buns, meat buns, side dishes, and a plate of twenty or thirty eggs.
Ever since he started practicing martial arts, Li Yuan's appetite has been huge. After the blood circulation, his appetite has increased several times. He was only half full after eating at this table.
But he didn't order anything else. He paid the bill and walked towards the inner city. He bought some snacks from time to time on the way. He was full before he reached the inner city.
Li Yuan calculated that he had spent two cents of silver on this journey. Although he had a big appetite, he also felt the change in prices.
On the side of the road, some people were talking about this. It seemed that the court had increased the commercial tax?
Li Yuan heard a familiar voice and looked back. It was the young man from the grandfather and grandson who bought the Sanyuan knife and sickle from him years ago.
But this time, the old man was not there. Instead, he brought a dirty little boy, who was looking at him timidly at this moment.
The young man sighed:
Li Yuan walked to the stall.
The stall this time was much bigger than the one before the New Year, and there were all kinds of old things. Li Yuan glanced over and saw two sickles that were not of the first rank, and the control effect was very poor.
Good things are rare everywhere, so Li Yuan didn't care.
Seeing Li Yuan shaking his head, the young man gritted his teeth, turned around and trotted a few steps, and pulled out a rusty iron rod from the rags covering the donkey cart not far away.
The young man walked over with the iron rod.
Really good stuff?
Li Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, a little surprised.
Half a year later, Li Yuan was no longer surprised to see a first-rank weapon, but he was still a little surprised to see the control effect.
Anticipate the enemy in advance?
This seems to be related to actual fighting?
However, compared to this, he was more curious about what kind of village they were.
It was the Three Yuan Army and the Iron Blood Army, and the ancient battlefield?
Li Yuan turned around. This trident was somewhat useful to him, but not to others. More than ten pounds of scrap iron was not worth a penny.
Seeing Li Yuan frowning and wanting to leave, the young man lowered the price again and again. Finally, Li Yuan took the long stick and two other broken items on the stall that were not of the same level for two pennies of silver.
These two items were quite strange. A broken bamboo hat and a straw raincoat were all torn to pieces, but the control effect was very interesting.
Two-piece set for the fisherman?
Li Yuan thought that the nearby towns and villages might also be worth a visit with three broken weapons.
Maybe the really good things would not stay there, but for him, the broken weapons could also be controlled, but the effect was often less.
The broken weapons would have at least half the control effect compared to the intact ones of the same level.
After a round trip in the inner city, Li Yuan found that even at this time, Tongda Money House and several pawnshops were still watched by people, which surprised him.
Qin Xiong had been dead for several months, and I heard that Qiu Da had disappeared. These yamen runners were so dedicated?
Li Yuan frowned in his heart.
But he was prepared and was not disappointed. After a round, he left the inner city.
On the way back to Chaiyufang, he saw Liang Ashui, who looked very good.
He was wearing shorts, had a burly figure, a rough complexion, and a cold face. He gave people a feeling of "no strangers allowed". He strode over, and his momentum was already a bit like Qin Xiong's previous posture.
After taking a look at the fish basket he was carrying, Li Yuan's heart moved slightly and he went to meet him.
Liang Ashui frowned at first, looked at him for a few times, and seemed to recognize something:
Li Yuan didn't care too much, just looked at the fish basket:
Li Yuan was very curious about spiritual fish.
In the book, he had seen that the so-called spiritual fish is a different species of fish, very rare, and often has unusual effects.
Liang Ashui said, and paused slightly:
Superior blade?
Li Yuan thought about it and agreed:
Oxhorn pomfret is a spiritual fish that can replenish blood and qi. One catty is just over one tael. Two four catties are almost nine taels of silver. This is a good deal.
After all, spiritual fish are very rare, and he is not the only one who can make top-quality weapons in the forging shop.
Liang Ashui agreed very straightforwardly and left with the fish basket.
Li Yuan was a little emotional about a few taels of silver for a fish. If it were last year, he would not even dare to think about it.
Li Yuan walked towards the gold-making shop with the remaining soldiers:
...
There are tens of thousands of households in Gaoliu County, and there are sixteen in the urban area. There are naturally various ways to exchange two hundred taels of silver notes and two hundred taels of jewelry.
Even if many of them were being watched, Li Yuan did not feel any difficulty.
A money shop, a pawn shop, a jewelry store, a silk shop, etc. are all no good, so they are nothing.
Silver notes and jewelry have always been hard currency.
The blacksmith shop controls the ironware trade in many nearby counties, but there are naturally some small blacksmith shops underneath it.
There are many small blacksmith shops in Shengjinfang.
Every year during the big gathering, people from nearby villages and towns come to
He knew how to drive an ox cart and sell all the iron tools and iron materials that were not valued by the blacksmith shop.
There are also well-established businessmen who come here to sell after purchasing.
Many of them can afford his four hundred taels of business.
Li Yuan had already figured out the way to do it. Before noon, he had bought a thousand kilograms of wrought iron, including pearls and agate at a discount of 220 taels. He also exchanged a banknote for it.
Then, he watched the merchants who had made great gains leave the city before turning back.
After piling the wrought iron at the bottom of the bed, Li Yuan felt a little painful, but was still barely satisfied.
At least, more than half of the materials for Zhangbinglu's promotion have been solved.
With the hammer in hand, Li Yuan took the pill and stood still, with expectations in his heart:
…
…
Early the next morning, Li Yuan went to Zhang Ben's place to exchange for ten taels of gold. Old Zhangtou took good care of him and exchanged it ten to one, which would save at least twenty taels of silver.
But there are conditions.
Lao Zhangtou refused to change his words, and seemed to refuse to change his words if he didn't agree.
Li Yuan was a little helpless.
Zhang Bi mentioned it several times these days, and he didn't want to keep rejecting it, which was why he accepted Liang Ah Shui.
Seeing his precious apprentice agree, Zhang Ben had a smile on his face:
Li Yuan coaxed the old man with good words, at least he had to get the gold first.
Zhang Ben laughed and scolded, but he really couldn't get angry.
Li Yuan said seriously.
With the addition of Dzogchen-level blacksmithing skills, his blacksmithing skills are improving every day. In at least a year, he is sure to completely digest this great craftsman's hammer, and his blacksmithing skills will break through to the Great Perfection!
How could Zhang Bi believe this?
The hammering method has some bonuses to the blacksmithing technique, but forging is more than just the hammering method. There are requirements for mineral selection, quenching, and even quenching water temperature and water type. It can be mastered in a year and a half.
Zhang Bi almost blurted out, then reacted and slapped him:
After being hit, Li Yuan felt no pain or itch, smiled, and turned around to the forging room.
He really likes this old man.
