Bana took a fancy to a good iron pot, and a Chinese merchant interpreter who could speak their language told him that the pot could be hung up, making it easier to cook.
No matter how you cook or fry it, it will be very delicious.
Bana's two younger sisters were very fond of the cloth sold by the Han merchants, which were extremely brightly colored, and the silk was even more silky, but it was not cheap.
Some businessmen recommended ready-to-wear clothes to them, and the cut and production were very beautiful.
There are also those who sell jewelry, and they also take the opportunity to recommend it to them.
They felt that their eyes were almost out of sight, and everything seemed so attractive, with horns and wooden combs, and beautiful hairpins.
There is even a copper realm that can illuminate people clearly The two deer that Bard brought with him, as well as a bundle of deerskins, were quickly sold by the Tang Merchant, who was always smiling from beginning to end, even when bargaining.
He couldn't understand what Tang Shang said, but there was an interpreter next to him who could speak their words, and he didn't speak very well, but at least he understood what he meant.
In the end, the deal was made, and the Tang merchant paid the money, which was silver and copper coins, and the production was very beautiful, but the money he got was less than the price he sold, and the interpreter told him that it was a tax.
Twenty taxes on one transaction tax.
Bud thought it was okay to accept, so he went to the children with the bag of money.
On the way, a man from the next village stopped him and beckoned him to buy salt.
Bard used to buy their salt at the bazaar, and they would make it.
However, compared with the salt of Tang Shang, it is far worse, and the price is more expensive.
Bud shook his head with a smile and left.
The man looked at the bags of salt in front of him, almost untouched.
The Han merchants didn't want their salt because they had better salt.
And the people in the villages who used to buy his salt did not buy his salt, because the salt of the Han merchants was good and cheap.
He sat there discouraged, originally planning to sell salt and buy some cloth from the Han merchants.
"These Han merchants have robbed us of our business, and he has made it impossible for us to sell our salt."
He said to his companion.
"These damn guys."
Bard finds his children, who are hesitating over what to buy.
"What price" Bard first asked the price, then counted the silver coins and the copper coins in his money bag, and felt that there was still a surplus. smiled at the moment, "Buy them all." ” So his son Bana happily bought the iron pot that he had already fancied, and carried the iron pot with a little blue on his back, and he knocked it a few times from time to time.
The daughter also bought cloth.
Bard's gaze remained on a guard's knife, which was a good one.
He walked over, and the guard looked at him with some wariness.
"I'm going to buy this knife."
There was no interpreter on the side, and the guards didn't understand.
Bard simply took out a piece of gold from his pocket, he knew that the most expensive coin of the Han people was gold.
The piece in his hand is a piece of gold, but it is not as beautiful as the gold coins of the Han people, but it is a large piece.
He handed over the nugget of gold, gestured with his hand, and motioned for the gold to be exchanged for his sword.
A merchant next to him understood, and said to the guard with a smile, "You don't take it quickly, this is a good deal, this is a piece of gold, at least about a catty, even if it is not very pure, it will make a lot of money." ” In the Central Plains, one tael of gold can be worth eight copper coins, one catty of sixteen taels, and one catty of gold can be worth more than 100 yuan.
And the knife in the guard's hand is actually just a relatively ordinary Tang knife, and he only spent three hundred yuan when he bought such a knife.
The guard thought about it, and finally gritted his teeth and said to the interpreter who rushed over, "Tell him that you can buy me this knife, three thousand yuan." ” The interpreter was a little surprised, "This piece of gold is definitely worth more than three thousand, and thirty thousand is estimated to be more than that." ” "I know, you tell him."
Guardway.
He is not the Li family's bodyguard, but an immigrant here, and he is also a militiaman.
When he was in the market, he was hired by the merchant to be a guard, but in fact, he was just standing on the field.
The knife in his hand was bought by himself, and when he bought it, it was indeed only 300 yuan.
There is a sword shop in the city of Ryuqiu, which specializes in selling swords, guns, swords, and bows that are not prohibited by the imperial court.
Sell for three hundred and sell for three thousand, it's already very profitable, and you can buy another one when you go back.
The interpreter told Bud what he had said, and Bud was surprised.
After confirming it, I couldn't help but admire this Han escort very much.
He took the gold over there and exchanged it, and after checking the contents, weighing, and finally the merchant gave the price, ten gold coins.
Ten gold coins, according to the normal exchange ratio, one gold coin is equal to five silver coins, which is equal to ten copper coins.

This price is not bullied.
This nugget of nearly a pound of gold is not very pure, but the merchant still made a lot of money.
Bard was pleased with the price, and even had some surprises.
He asked for silver coins, because silver coins were more convenient to buy things.
Fifty silver coins, deducting two silver coins and a thousand copper coins, the final arrival was forty-seven silver coins and a string of copper coins, which weighed several pounds.
He offered to cut the silver coin in half to him, so that he could save so much copper.
But this request was rejected by the merchant.
"Our coins can't be broken and worn, otherwise, we can only weigh and value, not count them at face value."
All businessmen know that whether it is gold and silver coins minted by the imperial court or gold and silver coins minted by the Li family, they all have a characteristic, that is, money is calculated according to face value.
As we all know, these gold and silver coins are not pure, in fact, gold and silver coins are only ninety percent gold and silver content.
But gold and silver coins are calculated on a denomination basis and have good credit, so everyone uses them the same way.
However, if the teeth and reliefs on both sides of the coin are worn, then they cannot be calculated according to the denomination but can only be weighed according to the quantity, which is a big loss.
Therefore, no one would cut gold and silver coins apart at all.
In the past, when there was no uniform denomination of gold and silver, the gold and silver would be weighed by weight, but they would be cut directly for change.
A silver coin is very light, but it is worth 2,000 copper coins.
Half a silver coin weighs several pounds.
Carrying such a large string of copper coins, Bard felt that the Han people were doing things strangely.
Back in front of the guard, Bard paid three thousand dollars as promised, a silver coin and a large string of money.
This time, he didn't have to pay any more taxes, because the transaction tax is paid by the seller, and the buyer is not taxed.
After buying the sword he liked, he still had forty-six silver coins left in his purse.
That's a lot of money.
Bard impatiently drew his knife and watched, the knife was heavy in his hand, and the sound was different when he hit the blade.
The guard brought him a stick, and Bard swung his knife and slashed it, and the knife fell and broke the stick, and the break was smooth.
"Good knife," Bard admired.
Over there, someone immediately reported Li Chao.
"A Shanyi took out a large piece of gold and exchanged it for fifty silver coins, and then bought a Tang knife with three guan money" Fan Lubing said to Li Chao with a black face, "King Yue, I think that swords and other things should be forbidden to sell to Shanyi." ” Li Chao smiled, "It's okay, it's just a horizontal knife, and it's not a forbidden thing such as armor."
A horizontal knife in the city of Liuqiu was sold for three hundred dollars, and this militiaman sold it for three thousand, which was a big profit.
However, the militiaman was of good character and refused to buy his knife for a nugget of fifty silver coins. ” "Can't you help but sell swords to Sanyi?"
"It doesn't matter, Shanyi also has swords, although the swords are not as good as ours, but their deer spears are just as sharp.
Banning swords is useless, we just need to prohibit the sale of armor and broadswords, spears, and crossbows to them. ” t1706231537:
