There were dozens of families coming this time, including aristocratic families, princes, nobles and some wealthy businessmen.

But now it seems that the purchasing power of the princes and nobles will be relatively small. Five kilograms of gold costs about 700 guan according to the current market price. The most important thing is that they don't have much gold.

"Distinguished guests, let's start now, so that everyone can get the blessing of Lord Shiva. Let's start with the small quantity first. If you buy less than ten pieces, come to the front first." Jarawa announced the sale.

The purpose of ordering the smallest ones first is to let everyone present buy them, otherwise the few people in front can buy all these magic beads.

Immediately, more than a dozen merchants came up. The few bought two pills, and the big ones bought nine pills. In fact, it's quite a lot. Two of them would cost about 1,500 guan, and more would cost about 6,000 or 7,000 guan.

It is not that there were no wealthy businessmen in the Tang Dynasty. But basically the wealthy businessmen are related to aristocratic families or nobles. It’s really hard to get ahead in this era. If you make a thousand or eight thousand yuan a year, no one may care about you, but if you make tens of thousands of yuan a year, you will definitely be noticed.

In the time-travel novels that Li Shen read in his previous life, there were no male protagonists who could thrive among ordinary people. Unless you have some life-saving system.

Don't talk about others, just talk about Li Shen. If Li Shen meets someone who makes soap, he will make at least tens of thousands of dollars in profit every year.

If Li Shen is a black-hearted person, he will immediately send the palace guards to find him.

If you're in a good mood, I'll either hand over the formula and give you a sum of money. Or cooperate to give you some soup to drink, ensuring your prosperity and wealth, and no one will trouble you in the future.

If you are in a bad mood, I will arrest you and torture you to force you to reveal the formula. Do you dare to sue? Anyone who accuses an official must be beaten first, no matter whether it is true or false, let alone a prince?

If any yamen dares to accept it, and finally slanders the prince and intends to commit rebellion, I will kill him.

This is what Li Shen has deeply realized in the past few years after traveling through time. This is the real feudal society.

Why has there been a saying since ancient times: the people do not fight against the officials.

Without further ado, let’s get down to business. After these dozen merchants finished buying, Jarawa began selling less than a hundred pills.

This time there were more than a dozen people, but they were all honorable emperors, princes, princes, and so on. It didn’t mean that these people didn’t have money. It’s just that there isn’t that much gold.

The two groups of people before and after bought only about a thousand beads in total, and there were still about 29,000 divine beads left.

There were a total of twenty-one people left in the field. The three princes, Qiwang of the fifth surname, Guanlong Group, and Jingzhao Weidu, it seems that the three brothers from the royal family are currently the weakest.

Especially Li Chengqian and Li Tai, for the first time they felt so weak and the importance of money.

Li Shen stood up suddenly before Galawa could speak and said, "No matter what, I want five thousand. You divide the rest."

"His Royal Highness Prince Ji, you must have a big appetite. You take five thousand, and the rest can be divided into more than a thousand for each family. Besides, can you afford the twenty-five thousand kilograms of gold?" Cui Family The clan elder was the first to stand up and refute.

What a joke. It's all money. Didn't you hear what Galawa said, he will use double the treasure on the market to redeem the divine beads. The more you buy at this time, the more you will earn.

There is another reason why the news of Cui Dunli's disappearance has come back. A minister of the Ministry of War has just disappeared, which is a huge loss for the Cui family.

The Minister of the Ministry of War is only one step away from the Minister of the Ministry of War. As long as he endures for a few years and works well, he will definitely become the Minister of the Ministry of War. This is very important to the Cui family or the aristocratic family. The Cui family guessed that Li Shen must have done it. No one but him dared to do this.

"Yes, Tenth Brother, it's not Fourth Brother who is talking about you. You need to change your greed for money." Li Tai also stood up to help.

"That's right, do you have that much gold?" Wei Renji also said.

"Okay, everyone. Stop arguing. I just calculated it. You twenty-one families will share the rest equally. One thousand, three hundred and eighty for each family. Give the extra dozen to His Royal Highness. What do you think? ." Galawa said.

"Everyone will soon realize the magic of the Divine Pearl, but I still want to make it clear to you.

Next time I come back, I will bring back a rich treasure and take it back at twice the market price.

You must return it to us, otherwise you will be cursed by Lord Shiva. You will lose everything and eventually die. After death, your soul will be captured by Lord Shiva and never reincarnate. "

"Don't worry, our Tang Dynasty is a country of etiquette and the most honest. I wonder how long it will take for you to come back?" Li Chengqian promised

“One year won’t last more than three years,” Galawa said.

After hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

Finally, according to Jarawa's method, the remaining divine beads were divided into twenty-one pieces. Each family had 1,380 gold coins, only the prince had 1,400 gold coins, and each family also contributed 6,900 kilograms of gold.

All the gold was transported to Jixiang Ruyi's backyard by Jarawa, and they were basically gold bricks. Thirty thousand divine beads were sold for a total of 150,000 kilograms of gold.

Converted into the market weight of later generations, that is one hundred and seventy-eight thousand eight hundred pounds, or eighty-nine tons.

According to the density of gold, eighty-nine tons is less than five cubic meters, so it would fit into a room. And Jarawa also said that he would transport the gold back as soon as possible.

After the golden body of Lord Shiva is completed, he still needs to come back with the treasure to exchange for the divine beads.

The next day, the people of Chang'an saw more than 200 vehicles coming out of the East Market, including oxen and carriages. There are transport boxes on it, as well as silk, pottery and other specialties of the Tang Dynasty.

Everyone knew that this convoy was the convoy that Jarawa used to return to Tianzhu, and the car was carrying gold.

150,000 kilograms of gold, converted into copper coins, the current price is more than 20 million guan, and many people are jealous.

But everyone also knows that since there is so much gold on the road, there will definitely be a lot of guarding force.

Moreover, I heard that there was a bodyguard of King Harsha waiting after leaving the border, and the border of the Tang Dynasty was the two thousand bodyguards brought by Jarawa. It is said that this escort team has already applied and registered with Honglu Temple, otherwise it would not be possible to come to Chang'an.

This team is stationed five miles outside the city. No one is allowed to get close. No one has seen what they look like.

Even the patrolmen wear a set of large robes and cover their heads outside. I heard that this is their custom, and these soldiers are the guardians of God.

Jarawa is gone, but Chang'an is still lively. The Boutique Pavilion has already put up a sign at the door, purchasing the divine beads at a high price. The price has been increased to one thousand guan.

Five kilograms of gold only costs more than 700 guan, and you can earn more than 200 guan by changing hands.

But no one is selling it, and noble families are also collecting the divine beads. How much does Prince Ji's house charge? They charge as much as they want.

Li Shen was like a vindictive child who deliberately distanced himself from the aristocratic family. If you follow the trend, I will increase the price. If it goes up to fifty guan, it will increase by 50 guan in a few days. Finally, when it increases to 1,300 guan,

Finally, someone couldn't resist the temptation and chose to sell the divine beads.

(According to historical records, Wang Xuance's first mission to Tianzhu was to the Brahman Kingdom and the Damogadha Kingdom. It took three years to return to Chang'an, that is, from March 643 to 646 AD. During this period, they stayed in the two countries for a long time. time.)
