Chapter 206 Dragon Beard Grass

Except for the weakest Qu Kingdom and Beiling Kingdom, and the strongest Yue Kingdom.

In fact, the national strength of the other three countries is not much different. If you have to distinguish, the national strength of Donglin Kingdom is second only to Yue Kingdom.Zhou Guo ranked third, followed by So Luo Guo.

Liu Heng and An Ruyi sat on the "Flying Flowers" comparing mountains and rivers and books. Every time they passed by a country, they would stop and wander around, feel the different customs and customs, and buy some local specialties. It took more than a month Only after walking around all the time, I arrived at Quguo, which is near the sea.

After arriving in Qu Country, the two people realized that Qu Country is indeed very small, and the whole country is only as big as the two state capitals of Zhou State.But the degree of affluence far exceeds that of Zhou State. Even though most of the wealth is donated to Yue State as an annual tribute every year, the wealth in Qu State's treasury far exceeds that of Zhou State.

That's right, Liu Heng and An Ruyi knew so clearly that it was because they had once again visited King Qu's palace treasure house.It's a pity that they didn't find any special treasures during their visit this time.

This day, it happened to be a big fish market. Liu Heng and An Ruyi had never seen what a fish market was like, so they ran out early in the morning with a kind of curiosity.

Probably because the country is too small, the country is small and there are few people, so the women in the country don't just stay at home, but also come out to show their faces and work together like the men.

There were more women outside, and no one would wear a curtain to cover their faces, so An Ruyi didn't need to do anything more.It's just that the people of Qu Country are all sunburned because they have been at the seaside all year round, even the women are no exception, all of them have darker skin.As soon as Liu Heng and An Ruyi appeared, their fair skin stood out.

A fish market, as the name suggests, is a place where fish is sold.

If you really think that a fish market is just a place to sell all kinds of fish, you are very wrong.In fact, it is called a fish market, but it has almost everything. The fish market in Quguo is only once a month. On the contrary, there are relatively few people selling fish and seafood in it. , Coral and the like come out for sale.

Liu Heng and An Ruyi took a stroll around and bought a lot of pearls and corals in excellent condition. The prices of these things were much cheaper than those bought in Zhou Guo, and the quality was even better.

The so-called things are expensive away from their hometown, and people are cheap when they are away from their hometown.

The shopping was almost done, and the two of them felt that there was nothing to see and were about to leave. When they passed by a small stall, they suddenly noticed a weak wave of spiritual energy. The two of them regained their energy immediately, stopped, and looked at the small stall. , I didn't see anything special from this look.

There are only dozens of large and small pearls on the small stall, and there is a small pile of clam shells that have not been pried open, and a large pile of clam shells that have been pried and discarded at will.After feeling it for a while, the fluctuation of spiritual power came from the pile of pried clam shells.

"You two want to buy pearls? All the pearls here are of the highest quality, and the price is not high. Take a look." Seeing someone stop, a [-]- or [-]-year-old girl at the stall stopped and was holding her hand. The action of prying clam shells, raised his head and greeted them enthusiastically with a smile.

"How do you sell these?" An Ruyi asked softly when she saw that it was a little girl, feeling a little distressed.

"No matter how big or small my pearls are, they cost ten taels of silver per bucket." The little girl's eyes lit up, and she took a small bucket from the side with a smile.

The price is fair, and her buckets are slightly bigger than others.

"You measure how many buckets are here, we all want it." An Ruyi nodded.

The little girl was even happier when she heard the words, and quickly started to measure the pearls with a bucket. This lady is really good-looking and generous, so she didn't offer any counter-offering. Dad said that if someone wants to counter-offer, the minimum price is eight taels. Silver is also sold.But she is naturally happier if she can buy a higher price.

An Ruyi saw that she was very serious when she measured the pearls, and she didn't play tricks to reduce the weight on purpose. After filling it up, if there were any gaps in the bucket, she would fill it with smaller pearls, and often the pearls in the bucket would be slightly smaller. A little higher.

He's an honest kid.

Liu Heng let go of his consciousness, and quickly found the one with spiritual power fluctuations from the pile of shells that had been opened.

He motioned An Ruyi to watch it together, but the two of them were pleasantly surprised.There is a mass of seaweed wrapped around the clamshell, and this mass of seaweed is one of the main medicinal herbs they used to refine the Jidan, and it is also a hundred years old.

Dragon Beard Grass is a mid-level spiritual herb with a wide range of uses, and it is also one of the indispensable herbs for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill.

In Ruyiju, there is a formula for refining the foundation building pill, and there are other sufficient materials, but there is no asparagus grass.

It should be said that asparagus grass is not uncommon in the world of comprehension. It grows in places with abundant spiritual energy underwater, and it is very easy to survive. As long as it can be found, it is usually a large piece.Moreover, it is a kind of plant that is easy to grow. You only need to find a relatively pure water area and set up a gathering array, and it can grow.

I was so sleepy that I met the pillow sender.Faced with such a surprise, both of them felt that this trip was super worthwhile.

The little girl over there finally measured out the pearls, and there were five or six pearls left, "Ma'am, there are three buckets in total. If you want them all, these few pearls will be used as extras for you."

An Ruyi nodded, handed her three ingots of ten taels of silver each, and asked tentatively, "Did your family salvage these pearls by themselves?"

"That's right, my father and my brothers salvaged these." The little girl took the money, bit it with her teeth, put it away, and smiled triumphantly, "My father and three brothers are very powerful, Their ability to salvage pearls ranks high in our town, and they won’t come up empty-handed every time they go into the sea.”

"That's really quite capable. I see that the bucket you use to measure pearls here is bigger than that of other families, and you have never lacked weight when measuring pearls. You are much more honest than other families. You can also give extra hair Don't your parents blame you?" An Ruyi asked with a smile.

"No, that's what my parents told me. They have always told me to be honest in selling things, not to be deceived, and to sell pearls even if I suffer a little. My father will beat me up when he finds out the fool."

An Ruyi and Liu Heng looked at each other and smiled, and they immediately fell in love with the little girl and her family in front of them.

"Your parents taught you very well. The so-called help from heaven is obedience; help from man is faith. Integrity is also the foundation of human beings. Our husband and wife have a jewelry shop at home, and we will need many good-quality pearls in the future. Would you like to take us back to meet your parents, and when we come to Qu Country in the future, we can go directly to your house to collect pearls."
