- The leader of the Susha Clan warmly received Xu Er.
What, you said that I was indifferent just now, but you misunderstood.
My Susha family has always been hospitable.
"Guanzi" contains: "At the beginning of late spring, the people of Beihai boiled the sea into salt."
"I want to take a look at the saltworks."
Xu Er expressed great sincerity. As a businessman, he first traveled from Lishan in the north to the south to learn technology with his friends. Xu Er had to admit that the excellent handicraft industry has allowed the south to accumulate commercial capital. , and the first thing to solve is a lot of salt.
It will take some time for the development of the Great Salt Mountain. After discussion, the three leaders in the south decided to send Xuer, who is good at doing business, to the Susha family on the eastern coast to buy some sea salt.
Now the mill's pickles are in short supply, and a lot of salt is needed in many ways. The salt from the Akakata family, as well as some of the small rock salt mined outside the Great Salt Mountain, are gradually not enough for demand.
Of course, Mrs. Susha was very happy about this sudden large order.
The backlog of goods in the hand can finally be thrown out, isn't it happy.
When Xuer came here, he found that the Susha clan's saltworks were steaming salt with the ancient method of boiling sea water. There were wizards breathing fire, and more than one of them, which surprised Xuer very much.
Fire witches are rare.
The leader of the Susha Clan introduced the salt field and some of the salt piles that had been dried, and Xu Er went to inspect it for a while. The salt in the south, or the entire inland, can be regarded as good salt, but Xu Er He was well-informed, and before coming here, he had already learned from some salt-selling tribes that the Susha clan's salt-selling activities had been hit in the past few years.
Fortunately, in this era, the economy is relatively closed. With commerce, it will naturally bring prosperity and more goods and materials, which can make everyone's life better. Without commerce, you will not starve to death, just eat less. That's all.
Of course, the standard of living will also limit the development of regional tribes. If everyone worries about how to get enough to eat every day and consumes all their energy, there is basically no way to develop in other areas.
Xu'er was very satisfied with this batch of goods, so Mrs. Susha said a price, but Xu'er responded with a smile: "This batch of salt is excellent for the whole Eight Wildernesses. In terms of quality, it can be regarded as Good product"
"However, the price of salt in the Yanchang Kingdom is five hundred shells for half a stone, but they are fine salt. Good salt only costs one hundred shells for half a stone, and half a stone for bad salt is only ten shells. And if you barter, Banshimeiyan requires at least three fire coral plants that are one person tall."
"I heard that Susha's salt has not been selling well in recent years."
The warm and hospitable leader of the Susha clan suddenly turned cold.
He immediately understood that this young man was here to lower the price.
But before he could speak, he continued to say: "Of course, we can understand your plight. Who hasn't had a difficult time, so don't get excited. I'm here not only to lower the price, but I also want to talk to you Make a big deal."
Xu Er's so-called big business is to sell some mills and workshop products in the south here, especially in order to attract the attention of the chief of the Susha clan, he quickly brought out a signature product.
"Give this to Mrs. Susha as a token of my affection."
It was a fine porcelain. Compared with the original porcelain that was accidentally fired at the beginning, this porcelain already had some appearance. Of course, it was celadon celadon. This kind of celadon celadon is the easiest and oldest porcelain glaze, so Naturally, it appeared in this era.
Of course, this is ancient blue, it cannot be blue and white porcelain This thing was invented by people in the Shang Dynasty to color primitive porcelain. The main materials are lime and plant ashEasy to understand and easy to obtain, chemistry It's that amazing.
In other words, the plant ash eliminated in the era of slash-and-burn farming is here again!
My lord, times have not changed!
The leader of the Susha clan looked at this small bottle in surprise. In this period when there was only pottery, the most beautiful craftsmanship in the world was in the Kongsang clan in the Central Plains. They had a method of firing beautiful pottery, but what the Susha clan didn't know was , A few years ago, the Kong Sang family was able to complete the firing process of eggshell pottery, which was all thanks to Chonghua.
However, the small porcelain in front of me is much more beautiful than Kong Sang's pottery!
"This what kind of treasure is this?"
The leader of the Susha Clan was shocked, but Xu Er said: "This is called porcelain, and the firing method is similar to pottery, but I think the leader should be most concerned about three points."
"Looking good, practical, and watertight."
The eyes of the leader of the Susha Clan suddenly lit up, and as he touched the porcelain, endless desire arose in his heart.
Although this thing is inferior to the coral branches in the South China Sea, it is definitely cheaper than coral.
And in fact, there is no difference, and the most important thing is that this porcelain is an advanced product of pottery. As the other party said, the most important thing is that it does not leak and basically does not destroy itself.
Coral, that thing looks good but it's useless.
Xuer said that there are many special good things in the south, which can provide great convenience to the Susha clan. Although the Susha clan is quite accomplished in cooking sea salt, it is weak in other aspects, which is also understandable. Industry has specialization
So where do the resources you need come from? For example, the Susha clan was not good at making pottery, so their output was very low, and the population belonged to a large tribe on the eastern coast. In addition, pottery was easily damaged and leaked, so the supply was basically in short supply, and they were used sparingly.
In ancient times, bartering and ancient commerce were nothing more than that. Exchange what you have for what you don't have. As for the price, it is naturally negotiable.
Porcelain, plows, textile machines, weir frames, millstones, woodware, miner's lamps If you don't want it, we can also consider columbine carts and oil presses. These are all good things. Give the other party a jug of wine, and when the jug of wine goes down, the leader of the Susha Clan will immediately take over!
Xuer asked to exchange these materials for salt, but it only needed more salt. Generally speaking, although it took a little advantage, it could enable the tribe to live a good life with plenty of food and clothing.
The leader of the Susha Clan suddenly realized that a wonderful new life seemed to be beckoning to him. It was difficult to live frugally for the past two years, but he did not expect it to turn around now!
Do it!
¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª
A batch of salt along the southeast coast is being prepared to be transported back, cattle and sheep in the northern Central Plains are also hurrying, and in the west, the Huren Kingdom and the Yufu Clan have finally returned to Shu after going through all kinds of difficulties and dangers. , the towering mountains are like a sky wall, separating things from each other
When they went back, they saw the mountains and thought of the Dujiangyan that the southerners call. In the land of Shu, after returning to the tribal alliance, people from the Can Cong clan greeted him, and the Tsing Yi God had seen those boards.
He didn't speak for a long time, and finally asked a question.
Who wants to go north to find the giant spirit clan to come here to open the mountain?
