ferry.
Qi Xingyun couldn't help feeling sad.
This Sunrise Country is really a weird country. It sends its own people as gifts... It's simply terrifying!
He thought for a moment and said to Eunuch Wang Yun: "Replace all the silverware and tableware in the palace with ceramic ones!"
That hanging jade ring was so terrifying that Qi Xingyun couldn't look straight at the word silverware.
Qi Xingyun glanced away and saw Zhao Qi whispering to Xiang Tian Xiangzi, and shuddered suddenly. What is Zhao Qi planning to do?
Qi Xingyun came to the platform of Lion City Kingdom. The merchants from Lion City here were obviously from Qi.
The Lion City is a large island nation in the southern seas.
In the southern sea, there are countless islands, all large and small, no less than the whole world. From this, there are countless strange and weird countries in it.
The Lion City is one of the more powerful.
There are a large number of Daqi merchants in the Lion City who go to sea from the southern sea, and the one who appeared here this time is a Daqi merchant doing transshipment trade.
And this Qi man had obviously prepared it carefully, it was grain.
Strictly speaking, it is Shicheng rice.
Qi Xingyun touched a handful of Shicheng rice. The grains were plump and round, shiny and had a fragrance of grass.
"Dear Your Majesty, this is fragrant rice. However, the yield is low, with one and a half stone per mu. It can only mature twice a year, and it is also an annual tribute from the Lion City." The businessman from the Lion City said with a smile.
Eunuch Wang Yun said quickly: "Your Majesty, this kind of rice is usually used in the palace. It costs forty yuan per catty. You can buy twenty catties with normal money."
Qi Xingyun calculated that one stone from Da Qi was about ninety-two kilograms, and the usual price was seven hundred yuan, which was expensive.
The Daqi Imperial Palace only eats about 100,000 guan of rice in a year.
Qi Xingyun picked up the slightly dull rice next to it, rubbed it, and asked, "Is this rice that is ripe three times a year?"
The merchant from Lion City quickly replied: "Yes, Your Majesty, this is early rice. It grows regardless of the location. It only takes more than fifty days from planting to harvest. It is also very drought-resistant. The ears are long without awns and the grain size is small. Most of them are in the south." This kind of rice is grown all over the region.”
Qin Nanshu took out a notebook, counted with his fingers for a long time, and said: "Shicheng can sell Daqi about one million shi of early rice a year. Although Daqi has grown it for a long time, it can only sell two tons a year." Ripe, three crops a year, mostly in the south.”
"One million stones? Don't the people of their Lion City want to eat it? Or does Lion City produce more morning rice?" Qi Xingyun asked doubtfully.
Daqi's annual tax is only about 4.5 million to 5 million dan. How can this lion city be sold to Daqi for more than 1 million dan? !
How big is the Lion City? How could it be possible to sell so many?
The merchant in Lion City was from Qi. When Qi Xingyun asked this question, he didn't know how to explain it to His Majesty.
But when the emperor asked him what to say, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "People in Shicheng only eat two meals a day, and no one will care if they starve to death. There is plenty of water anyway, so just scatter some seeds and harvest them when the time comes. It's easy to get. It's hot, and they are too lazy to move."
"Send some to Bachelor Wanjin and let him study the breakfast rice in Lion City." Qi Xingyun grabbed a handful of breakfast rice. Lion City is not under the control of Daqi for the time being, so Qi Xingyun didn't bother to worry about how many meals they eat a day. meal.
Qi Xingyun came to the stage of Hockey Country and saw cane sugar broken into pieces and pineapples, but the Hockey people called him Wangli.
The Southwestern Wu Kingdom's booth features their Buddha statues, gems such as luminous pearls, and of course spices and pepper.
Qi Xingyun glanced at the entire platform and looked at a businessman with his head wrapped in front of him, wearing a black robe.
Qi Xingyun asked in confusion: "Where are you from?"
The merchant lowered his head and said: "We are from the Western Regions. Your Majesty, we are the bridge of communication in the world and the blood of trade. Wherever there is business, there are us. The King of Loutai State brings his most sincere greetings to the Emperor of Da Qi." "
The merchant stretched out his hand, and Qi Xingyun saw a handful of green plants, lush and lush in a flower pot.
Qi Xingyun looked at this green thing in confusion. It looked like Daqi's tea leaves, but it didn't quite look like it. The small fiery red fruits were hanging on the branches.
The merchant was very excited and picked a piece, put it in his mouth, chewed it and said, "This is holy tea. It has an unparalleled fragrance. It is a unique product of our country. Chewing the holy tea can refresh your mind, relieve fatigue, and also It can be used as medicine. If you eat it like this, it will taste delicious and is the best product. It is really comparable to Jianlong Tuan Snow Cake."
Qi Xingyun stretched out his hand towards the so-called Holy Tea on the Tower, and suddenly stopped.
Qi Xingyun put a smile on his face and said to Eunuch Wang Yun: "Capture the envoys of the Loutai Kingdom first and take a closer look at them. What do they want to do?"
This plant, he learned from the Saint Yu'er of the Black Lotus Sect, is a poison that can paralyze the spirit. Do businessmen from the Loutai Kingdom do this in front of him?
The merchants from the Loutai Kingdom changed their expressions. They overturned the booth in front of them and rushed towards the door.
The merchant was very fast, but Eunuch Wang Yun was even faster. He ducked and stood in front of the merchant. Eunuch Wang Yun's hand was faster than his. He pulled at the merchant casually. One pull.
The merchant burst out with a scream as fierce as a pig being slaughtered.
Eunuch Wang Yun gave a few casual pats, and the merchant drooped his head, and his limbs limply slumped on the ground, like a shrimp without legs. He crawled towards the door in an arched manner, but his feet were stabilized by Eunuch Wang Yun. He stepped on it steadily, with no intention of letting him go.
Qi Xingyun watched this scene in silence. Eunuch Wang Yun, who looked like a coward in front of him, took his skills seriously to outsiders.
What a ruthless person!
Eunuch Wang Yun summoned two personal officials and dragged the merchant, who was like a dead pig, out of the restaurant.
"Your Majesty, it's settled." Eunuch Wang Yun smiled honestly.
Qi Xingyun looked at Eunuch Wang Yun and said with curiosity: "Who is more powerful in martial arts, you or Luo Fengtang?"
Eunuch Wang Yun was stunned and said: "Of course it is Luo Fengtang who has great martial arts. He fights all day long and makes great achievements. When I am by your Majesty's side, there is no chance for me to perform martial arts. If I compete with General Luo in martial arts, even ten thousand of me can't compare. Go to General Luo."
"You two are fighting, who is better?" Qi Xingyun asked curiously. The move just now was so amazing. In a blink of an eye, he turned around and removed the merchant's arms and legs.
Eunuch Wang Yun thought for a while and said: "Kung Fu, General Luo's fighting skills are derived from fighting in battle. In about one round, I will probably die. Fighting in heavy armor, I can probably last two rounds. If Luo A general can probably survive by keeping a loyal minister under his command."
"Of course we are fighting on horseback. General Luo is wearing armor. I will immediately grease the soles of my feet. I can't defeat him anyway, so I won't be ashamed if I run away."
