Chapter 241
After practicing for an hour, it's almost time to hit the mark.Everyone was covered in sweat at the moment, so they went back to take a bath and freshen up, and then had breakfast together before doing their own things.
Chu Ruifeng will stay here today. The news of their arrival yesterday has been spread. Early this morning, many people were waiting outside to pay a visit to Chu Ruifeng.After all, it was on someone else's territory, no matter how good Chu Ruifeng's friendship with the king was, he could not offend the local officials, so today Chu Ruifeng had to come forward to socialize.
As for Qingyun and Qinglei, they have to deal with those merchants.Every time the Fengyun fleet comes to Zhanbo, it will attract countless merchants to purchase goods in large quantities.In this way, a lot of manpower is needed to keep busy.
Qingyun and Qinglei are busy, but now Xiaoshi can breathe a sigh of relief.So, after breakfast, Xiaoshitou went to find Qiaoyun, intending to let Qiaoyun lead him to go out for a walk.Qiaoyun has nothing to do here, so she simply takes Xiaoshitou, Chuntao and Xiahe, and the others out for a stroll.
Of course, Qiaoyun is not familiar with the local area, so the manager here specially sent a young man as a guide to explain the small town called Hoi An to them along the way.
In fact, before Qiaoyun came here, he had already heard a lot of introductions about this place from Chu Ruifeng.This city named Hoi An is named Hoi An City because it is close to the Hoi An River and near the mouth of the Hoi An River.It is very close to the seaside port, and it is a very important port for sea trade between the East and the West, so it is very prosperous.
It is precisely because of this that you can see a lot of people from other places here.Different countries have different skin colors and hair colors, and people wear all kinds of national costumes, walking on the streets, which can be regarded as different scenery.Xiao Shitou had never seen such a scene before, so he felt very strange and excited.
"Little Shitou, be honest, don't point at others casually. That is very unruly, be careful if they don't like it, come and teach you." Seeing Xiaoshitou's excited and curious look, Qiaoyun couldn't help it. I reminded them a few words, they are in other places, they should pay more attention and don't cause trouble.
"Auntie, I know, I will pay attention." Xiao Shitou restrained himself a lot after being instructed by Qiao Yun.Although he was still looking around curiously, he was no longer jumping up and down like before.
People strolled on the street, watching as they went, and sometimes they would run to join in the fun when they saw small stalls on the side of the road.The local people are used to this kind of situation. Seeing that Qiao Yun and others are dressed like Daliao people, and some peddlers can speak to Xiao Shitou in crappy Daliao official dialect, the big guys all laughed .
Most of the local residences are generally made of wood and stone. Because the people here believe in Brahmanism, many local buildings also have this religious style.Of course, those ancient buildings are not too many, especially after the development of this place, foreigners from all over the place immigrated here, and there are many different styles mixed.
Qiaoyun and the others did not go to those ancient areas in the city center, most of them were related to religion, and to Qiaoyun, they were not very attractive to her.What she wants to see the most is the bustling commercial area here. Maybe she can find something different here.
Of course, it is said to be a prosperous area, but it is actually only relative to this city. Compared to Daliao, it is basically a state city or a more prosperous county.Zhanbo is not a big country in the first place, so it is very good to have such a city.
Qiaoyun and the others walked all the way, just looking around, of course, if they saw something they liked, Qiaoyun would buy a little.This place is close to the sea, so the products in the sea are relatively rich.Arriving here, Qiaoyun finally realized why Qinglei would laugh at her when she was shopping in Haining Prefecture.
The things here are many times cheaper than those in Haining Prefecture. Let alone tortoiseshell combs, there is even a comb made of whale shark bones here.That kind of whale shark bone, carved by skilled craftsmen, becomes crystal clear, as beautiful as crystal.
When the girls saw these beautiful and exquisite little things, they couldn't move any of them, even Chuntao and the others had their eyes shining.Qiaoyun is no exception, she directly picked several.
Qiaoyun was generous and bought a lot of things.The peddler also had good eyesight, and when he saw this, he simply brought out two more boxes.Then he even gestured and told Qiaoyun that the two boxes were full of pearls, and each box only cost one tael of silver.
Qiao Yun's eyes widened when she heard this, and she hurriedly opened the box to have a look. Sure enough, there were pearls inside.These pearls are as big as lotus seeds, and as small as soybeans. Some of them don't look round and have some flaws, but most of them are still good.Each pearl exudes a soft light in the sun.
"Is it really possible to buy a box of this for only one or two taels of silver?" Qiao Yun couldn't believe it, so she asked the boy next to her.
The little guy nodded with a smile, "I don't know, but this place is rich in pearls, and the pearls are particularly large. The ones that the girl saw are small beads that the merchants don't like, so they can only be sold in boxes."
"The girl also knows that it's not easy for our caravan to go out. Naturally, we have to bring back the most valuable things. Although these pearls are also good things in Daliao, they are not that valuable after all, so there are very few merchants in Daliao. I will bring this kind of food back, and the price is of course very cheap.”
"If the girl likes it, why don't you just buy it and find a craftsman when you go back to inlay some earrings, bracelets, beads and hairpins, which are pretty good. When the younger ones go home in the past, they will also bring some back to the mothers-in-law and sisters at home. They all like it very much." Seeing Qiao Yun's surprised appearance, the guy didn't find it strange, it was the same way when he came here.
After listening to the buddy's explanation, Qiaoyun couldn't help feeling emotional, no wonder everyone knew that going out to sea for business was very dangerous, and there were still countless people scrambling to get out.Who is willing to let go of such a huge profit?The pearls in front of her were already very good in her opinion, but she never expected that they were not rare for businessmen.
Well, people don't care about it, but she thinks it's very good.As the guy said, it's good to keep it and take it home to inlay some jewelry or something.Otherwise, take it and grind pearl powder, and then it will be used with rouge powder.
"Okay, I want your two boxes of pearls too, wrap them up for me." Qiaoyun immediately wanted both boxes, and it doesn't take up space to keep them, waiting to get them on the boat You can take it back, why not do it?
