treasure bowl. If there really was a cornucopia in this world, how could it be sold before it was too late to hide it?
I saw another big cannibal in a white robe. He was holding a large purple-gold bowl that was as long as a ruler and wide. The bowl was carved with dense patterns. In terms of craftsmanship, it still had a certain value.
The booth was packed with onlookers.
The "treasure basin that produces treasures" is so strange and tempting. Previously in
The fat little man in the "Prophet" booth who was looking for money was also crowded in the crowd. Just now
The "prophet" told him that if he walked a hundred steps forward, he would have a chance to make a fortune. It seemed that he was being tricked into buying this cornucopia.
Those who sell cornucopias pretend to be
The "prophets" are all cannibals, and most likely they are the same group of liars.
"You can take this cornucopia home with you for only 500 gold coins now. It's first come, first served. Is there any customer who wants to buy it?" The food merchant shouted loudly, holding up the cornucopia.
As long as you are not a fool, you probably won’t buy it, right? Song Che squeezed into the crowd and asked: "You have this cornucopia, which can produce countless gold and silver treasures, why do you still sell it? Don't you feel distressed?" The big food merchant said frankly: "This question I have answered it many times. What I sell is not only the cornucopia, but also the spell that can produce wealth. The cornucopia is only worth a hundred gold coins, and the money-generating spell is worth four hundred gold coins. Besides, the reason why I reluctantly give up my love is I put the cornucopia out for sale because my mother was seriously ill and needed a lot of money to treat her. However, this cornucopia can only produce five gold coins a month. I thought it was too slow to get money, so I put it up for sale. .”
"Then you are really a filial son! You left your seriously ill mother to do business in Daliang. This trip will take at least half a year. Aren't you afraid that by the time you take the money back, your mother will already be dead? ?”
"Hahaha..." Lin Nuxia's greeting made the onlookers laugh.
"Go, go!" The big food seller was unhappy and said, "If you don't buy it, don't hinder my business! My cornucopia can produce gold, and everyone can see it!"
"Who says I won't buy it? I'll tell you the truth. I came here specifically to buy this cornucopia of yours." Song Che changed the topic and said, "But I just came here and I haven't seen the wonder of this cornucopia yet. Can you please come again?" Show it to me, if your cornucopia can really produce gold coins, I will pay a thousand gold coins to buy it, how about it?"
"One thousand taels of gold!" The big food merchant's eyes glowed golden.
"Are you telling the truth?" Song Che said loudly: "With so many villagers and elders here testifying, how can I lie? I'm afraid you won't be able to change!"
"Okay! This is what you said, then I will cast another spell to change it for you!"
"etc!"
"what happened again?"
"I want to check this cornucopia. If you put gold coins in it in advance, wouldn't you be deceived?" Song Che said.
The big food merchant was happy. He held a cornucopia and made one in front of Song Che.
The "underturned" posture,
"Look, there's nothing in it."
"Whether there is something or not is not up to you. I have to touch it." Song Che quickly put his hand into the basin and touched it a few times to confirm that there was nothing before he stopped and let the big food seller perform.
The big food merchant raised the cornucopia above his head, while reciting strange spells, twisting his body like a dancing god, and
After "doing it" for a while, he slammed the cornucopia and said proudly: "Now, a gold coin has been born in my treasure bowl!" The onlookers gathered around.
The big food merchant tipped the mouth of the basin downward. Where are the gold coins? Seeing that no gold coins came out, he patted the bottom of the basin twice more, but still no gold coins.
"Where are the gold coins? Is your cornucopia not working?" Song Che asked, squinting his eyes. The big food merchant panicked the cornucopia twice more, but still no gold coins came out. He quickly made an excuse and said: "I almost forgot, the number of times this month can produce gold has been limited, and it can no longer produce gold coins."
"I don't think that's the reason?" Song Che raised high the hand that touched the cornucopia before.
"I smeared some paste on my hand and deliberately stuck it to the edge of the bottom of the basin. It just jammed your mechanism and prevented you from spitting out the gold coins."
"Profiteer, look at the sword!" Lin Yue immediately took action and cut the cornucopia in half with one sword. Several gold coins were scattered on the ground from the interlayer at the bottom of the basin.
"Little tricks like the Yin-Yang Pot are all leftovers from our Daliang play. Do you still dare to use them to deceive others?"
"Turns out he's a liar!" Suddenly, the big food seller was accused by thousands of people. He turned around and wanted to run away. Ning Yehong kicked him to the ground and tied him up in the booth.
"Dear fellow villagers, although there is no restriction on product categories at this exhibition, please keep your eyes open and be cautious in transactions to prevent being deceived! I will also set up a special 'Anti-Counterfeiting Center' at the entrance of the exhibition later. If you If you find that you have been deceived, report it to the center as soon as possible, and a specialist will seek justice for you!"
"Okay!" Doing business must be fair, open, and impartial. If you can't even do honest business, how can you do business?
Of course, there are only a small number of opportunists, and most people still do business with sincerity and sincerity.
Silk, tea, ceramics, medicinal materials, pens, inks, paper and inkstones, etc., are products with Daliang characteristics and are extremely popular among foreign merchants.
In addition, all local sellers want to clear their stocks quickly and exchange for gold and silver, and the prices are also
The "involution" is very high, and the price is generally 20% to 30% lower. For Tibetan businessmen, it is not easy to travel across the ocean, and the price is so favorable, so naturally they have to buy on a large scale. Song Che made a rough calculation, There are more than 40 booths selling textiles, including Yunshuifang. On the first day of the exhibition, each of them received a lot of orders.
A large amount of foreign capital has flowed into the country, driving rapid economic development. People have money in their pockets, and the country has become rich.
Not only that, in addition to exporting domestic products, there are also imports of foreign goods, such as——
"I bought this from a European foreigner when I was visiting the exhibition today. They call this thing 'potato', and it can be fried or steamed. According to the foreigner, in their country, potatoes are It is equivalent to our rice and wheat, and we use this as our staple food every day." Yun Niang enthusiastically served several plates of potato dishes, and people who had never eaten them used their chopsticks one after another. After eating, they all felt that the taste was good.
Potatoes are a good thing. It is the easiest crop to grow in the world and can even survive in outer space.
And it matures quickly, is in season, has good taste and is full for the stomach. Since the war in the north, countless refugees have fled to the south, suffering from hunger.
If potatoes could be introduced and cultivated vigorously, the famine could be properly resolved.
