Chapter 349 Mud Treasure

"You guys want to go to Daqiu to do rice and noodle business?" Zuo You was a bit skeptical about the identities of Mo Zi and Xiao Wei, but he asked someone to ask his mother, and it was confirmed that they were all right. {The fastest text chapter reading}My old lady will never harm him, and it is really not difficult to lead a boat and people.His caravan is large, and every time someone begs to come and follow him.

"Exactly." Xiao Wei answered briefly.

"The big demand for rice noodles is not the most lacking, but the price here is very high." Zuo Youmomo bearded.

Mo Zi thought, could Zuo You still refuse to let them follow the boat?

"How about selling me your one thousand shi?" Zuo You's proposal was unexpected to the two of them, "Now the price of rice in the market is 150 Wen, and I will pay it for 170 Wen."

Xiao Wei looked at Mo Zi.She was the first to say the excuse of buying and selling rice noodles, but he didn't know if there were these things on board, so he couldn't speak rashly.

Zuo You noticed it, and secretly thought that the brother and sister were strange, the elder brother wanted to see the younger sister's eyes, and the younger sister was very capable.The letter said that it was brother and sister, but it was such a stunning woman who was in chaos. He was not surprised that the woman disguised herself as a man and came out to walk around.

"Although it sells for 150 Wen in the market, most of the rice shops are sold out. I came from the south, and I saw the price go up all the way, and I bought it everywhere if I had money. The big families are stockpiling grain, and the price has reached [-] Wen. If it goes on like this, it may not be able to stop selling to [-] Wen." Mo Zi is not based on nonsense, in the name of selling rice, of course, he must do research in advance.

Zuo You wanted to test again. Seeing that she spoke clearly and logically, he felt relieved again, and said with a smile, "My niece is really knowledgeable. Uncle will tell you the truth, Yuling rice merchants now get more rice from me. The price is the price. 150 Wen, if there is a price, there is no rice. Next month, it will be 250 Wen. If they want to keep the shop open, they have to pay the money."

Mo Zi's face expressed admiration, "Uncle is indeed a wealthy businessman in Yuling, and my niece has been educated. From now on, elder brother and I will rely on uncle a lot, and a thousand stones of rice is really not much, just according to uncle's wishes." She actually disliked it. It's cumbersome, just get rid of it.

Zuo You once again looked at Mo Zi differently, "It's a family, and I won't let you suffer. Rice, I'll take it. You can fill in the [-] stones that are vacant on your boat, or buy some silk porcelain. As for the next family, It’s all on me, and you can’t do without your earnings. When you come back, you can help me bring the goods and the earnings will be yours.”

Mo Zi was very happy, "Thank you, Uncle. I wonder when the fleet will leave? We should prepare in advance so as not to delay Uncle's trip."

"You guys just happened to be in time. This time, I'm going to lead the fleet personally. I really need to make early preparations for the departure tomorrow." Zuo You formally agreed.

"There are a lot of things that need to be taken care of quickly. I'm afraid I won't be able to stay at my uncle's house tonight." Mo Zi hurriedly stood up, "I'll have someone bring the rice here tomorrow morning?"

"It's not necessary for me to send someone there, the money will be settled together when the time comes." Zuo You didn't force him to stay, and offered tea instead. It will save face, especially when you are in such a hurry."

The chariots and horses left Zuofu, and Dinggou handed Mo Zi a piano score.

Mo Zi flipped through the paper, which was a dozen or so thin pages.She is tone-deaf in ancient times and can't understand the meaning at all.Xiao Wei should understand, but she pulled the curtain and saw that he was withdrawn from behind, so she couldn't speak for now.

"Just this one?" She asked Dinggou first.After shaking the piano score, there was nothing in it.

"There is only one burden. Except for the clothes, this is the piano score. I have already read it, and it is nothing special. Maybe it is something she treasured and it is just a gift to you." Ding Gou shrugged, "Although it is a very common song. song."

Mo Zi's eyes lit up, "Do you know how to read scores?"

"Nonsense, who can't read music." Ding Gou squinted at her.

"I won't." Despite seeing his complacency, Mo Zi honestly admitted.Nothing to be ashamed of.The music of this year will not please her, who is a millennium later.Babbling, ding dong ding dong, I can't find a sense of rhythm.

"This is the first outing song. The score is in the front and the words are in the back." Ding Gou said that he was still active, hummed a few lines softly, then frowned and shook his head.

Mo Zi asked, "What?"

Ding Gou tilted his head, "If you sing according to the words, this score is missing a few sounds. Strange, the score is not too old." He pointed to an inconspicuous gap, "Here, where the lotus should be sung , the sound is missing."

"Lian?" Mo Zi felt something wrong.The handwriting of this piano score is beautiful, it may be written by Mo Chou herself.Her piano skills are famous all over the world, how could there be no sound in the score? "Dinggou, you sing the whole song to me, and then tell me the missing words."

Ding Gou lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then raised his eyes, his admiration could not be concealed.But he was not good at speaking well, so he cleared his throat and sang from the beginning.

"The Lianhua Temple is under the stone tablet." He connected the words.

"It's not too late, Dinggou, go to Dongcheng Lianhua Temple." Mo Zi took out a pencil, and roughly drew the direction and street on the paper from memory, "The stele of Zhengming is behind the temple. Dinggou in front of the forest of steles nodded and took Passing the picture of Mo Zi, Fei flew onto one of Xiao Wei's accompanying horses, picked up the man and put it on the ground.

"Borrow a horse." He drank twice and galloped away.With such a big move, Xiao Wei was disturbed no matter how preoccupied he was, and asked Mo Zi, "A matter of Zhong?"

"Let's talk when we go back." Mo Zi put down the curtain, tilted his head back, closed his eyes and let out a long breath, he was so tired today.

It's good that Yuan Cheng is here.He is here, she can be lazy.All the things other than shipbuilding are entrusted to him, so why make people deaf with laughter?However, thinking of him made my heart a little more relaxed.The body that was chilled in the left mansion gave birth to warmth and gradually softened.

Back on the boat, Zhong An Wei Jia heard what Mo Zi said.They all knew Mo Chou, they didn't expect her experience to be so miserable, they couldn't help sighing and mourning the death of the once beautiful woman.

Mo Zi talked about the piano score again.

Xiao Wei was quite surprised that she deciphered the hidden meaning so quickly.She really has the ability to make people feel ashamed.

Mo Chou once guessed with him in this way, and he was completely puzzled.He can read scores, but he can't sing lyrics, so he didn't understand until Mo Chou told him.

Although it was late at night, no one went to sleep, they all wanted to know what Mo Chou had hidden in the Lotus Temple.Fortunately, Dinggou didn't ask people to wait until dawn, and he came back on the fourth watch with a cloth bag in his hand.

"What is it?" Mo Zi asked while explaining.

Ding Gou pouted, and confronted her in front of everyone, "Do you see that this knot has been opened? I don't have any eyesight."

Mo Li laughed, not only did not talk back, but also admitted that he was confused, "Today I have been busy from morning to night, my feet are not touching the ground, my eyes are tired, and my head is also tired."

Zhong An was surprised, "Miss Mo Zi has always been very talkative, but she didn't reply?"

"You're right, I'll admit it." She wasn't rude.

At this time, as the cloth bag was opened, everyone's attention was on that table.

There is a square box in the cloth bag, not new, the red paint is faded, chrysanthemums are painted on it, it seems to be a woman's jewelry box.Mo Zi lifted the lid of the box, and there was no jewelry inside, only a large piece of mud.

"Mud?" Wei Jia blinked, "Are you sure?"

"Dinggou, this guy's eyesight is worse than mine, and he's said to be a sharpshooter." Mo Zi joked to Wei Jia.

Wei Jia looked again, oh, and reached out to take it, "The one that's indented in the middle seems to have a pattern on it."

Xiao Wei pushed his hand away, "Be careful, this is ooze, it will break if you squeeze it too hard."

Zhong An moved the lamp to look at it for a long time, "What kind of pattern is it? A seal?"

"The two beasts of Qilin, Tengyun stepped on the ball, and a pair of eagle eyes in the middle. The Qilin is the descendant of Duange's family, the eagle represents the king of Daqiu, and Tengyun's stepping on the ball means entering and exiting. There is a bow and snake pattern on the ball, which should belong to Duange Hunting. This is the imperial gate order issued by the king of Daqiu. With it, you can freely enter and exit all the city gates. The imperial gate order cannot be used for a lifetime. It is only made of pure gold by craftsmen when you go out to fight or perform special missions. For example, the order of Duangeshou is likely to be taken back by King Daqiu after Yuling is pacified. Because the imperial order can come and go, it is very important, and it is almost inseparable." Mo Zi leisurely At that time, I read all the books in Daqiu Palace, so I knew it in detail. "Mochou might want someone to create a false order for her to escape, but probably didn't have time."

"Can other people use it too?" Xiao Wei asked her.

"Yes. It will be regarded as an order from the master of the imperial gate order. Therefore, as I said just now, this thing is almost inseparable, unless it is used for something." After Mo Zi finished speaking, he closed the lid, "However, it can only live up to Mo Chou's last Kindness. Although the clay mold is very fine, it is very difficult to imitate, and it is impossible for a first-class goldsmith to do it."

"Mo Zi, your carving skills are superb, can't it be imitated?" Wei Jia felt that if this imperial gate order could be imitated, it would be of great use.

"I only carve wood and build boats, and I don't know anything else." There are many kinds of workers.A goldsmith is not a blacksmith, and a blacksmith is not a carpenter.

"Put it away for now, maybe there will be a suitable opportunity." Xiao Wei suggested.

"Keep it away." Mo Zi passed the box over, "People come and go in my cabin, just in case it breaks."

Xiao Wei didn't say anything, and held it with both hands.

With a little thought, everyone went back to their rooms.

As soon as Mo Xu entered her cabin, Ding Gou spread his palm in front of her.

A translucent white jade bead overflows with light, and the all-too-familiar Avalokitesvara strokes the willow with his hand, looking at it in the jade.

Pure water!

Her mouth was half open, not knowing what to say.

Zan Jin let out a sigh, "You kid obviously opened it and read it, but you opened your eyes and said nonsense?"

Mo Zi suddenly realized, "Dinggou, is this water purification pearl also from the box?"

Dinggou listened to the movement outside, made sure no one was around, and said, "Fortunately, I checked first, otherwise we won't be able to swallow it if they see it."

"Why are you swallowing it? Didn't you say it was for Brother Mo? What has it to do with them?" A series of rhetorical questions, Zan Jin was sharp.

"Shuijingzhu is a rare treasure, so it's hard to guarantee that they won't think about it, so let's not talk about it." Dinggou, like Stinky Fish, didn't have much affection for Xiao Wei and the others.

Where did Mochou get the water purification beads?Mo Zi is more concerned about this.

Happy Children's Day!
