The portable magic tower of the Three Kingdoms

There is no tea ceremony yet. After all, tea is a niche product in this era. It is mainly circulated in the gentry circles of Yizhou and Sizhou, and it has not yet reached the level of popularity. It still can't become a fashion item.

Liu Yuanqi looked at the four 'daughter-in-laws', and naturally became more and more satisfied, so he told them to abide by women's morals, get along well, and take good care of Liu Tao. The key is to give him a few grandchildren as soon as possible.

This kind-hearted person is probably only Liu Yuanqi, who is both a father and a mother, so he will behave like this?

Then on the same day, he got up to leave. If it wasn't for these words, he should have left after presiding over Liu Tao's wedding last night.In his words, Zhuangzi and workshops in Luoyang are still waiting for him to take care of them.

He knew better that Liu Tao could be more unscrupulous only if he went back to Luoyang by himself.He is not stupid. During this period of time, he felt that someone was secretly watching him. After a long time, he realized that it was His Majesty's people.

He will not be angry about it, and even happier.After all, this means that everything is fine with Liu Tao in Yunzhong, and at the same time, his development is getting better and better, and his achievements are getting more and more, otherwise there is no need to pay so much attention to him.

Liu Tao just sent him out of the city gate silently, telling him to be more careful in Luoyang, and if he couldn't hold back, he continued, and even scolded Liu Yuanqi before waving goodbye.

I vaguely heard the singing, it seemed to be "Farewell", it should be Liu Yuanqi singing, this ghost crying wolf howling, the sound is incomplete, it sounds so ugly that it makes people want to cry...

"Boss isn't young anymore, and he's still so dishonest." Liu Tao gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, wondering if Liu Yuanqi was trying to retaliate against him for leaving Luoyang by forcing a wave of love.It's been a year, and I still want to take revenge. I don't look like an adult at all.

But looking back, Cai Yan and Zhen Jiang had tears in their eyes.That's right, both of them have heard that song before, so they naturally know the meaning of Liu Yuanqi singing "Farewell".

"Come on, don't be sad here, the good days are still to come!" Liu Tao clapped his hands and signaled everyone to go back.

Anyway, someone has completely disappeared on the horizon, and I can't see it even if I want to...

Chapter 319 The First Frontier Trade

"Boss Budugen, I didn't expect you to come to check in person?" Liu Tao looked at the person in front of him unexpectedly.

For the first time to open the border trade, Liu Tao had to come to check in person. After thinking about perfecting the measures, he began to let Huang Zhong take charge of the follow-up border trade. Who knows that Bu Dugen also came to check in person in Xianbei.

"The border trade has been interrupted for a while, and the general's rules are not the same as before, so I still don't feel at ease." Bu Dugen replied, "I am also worried that the people below are ignorant, and something happened to destroy the border trade. "

At this moment, he is holding a bowl of tea, butter tea. Liu Tao processed the tea leaves he got into brick tea, and then taught others to make butter.Add ghee to hot tea, and then add a little salt.

Compared with the traditional cooking tea, this thing was immediately loved by his subordinates and even generals after it came out.It's also pretty good to drink without alcohol.

Originally, I wanted to bring some here for Huang Zhong to enjoy, but who knew that Bu Dugen came over in person, just in time to talk to him about the transaction.

After taking a sip, Bu Dugen felt that this thing was really good and mellow, especially the milky fragrance was very kind.It's obviously not wine, but it's pleasant to drink just the same.Immediately there was a "cuckoo" in the stomach, which was the sound of gastrointestinal motility.

"This is..." Bu Dugen seemed to realize something, and his tone was a little excited.

"This is butter tea cooked from brick tea. The butter is made from milk with some salt added." Liu Tao replied, "This thing is similar to rhubarb, or the effect is better than rhubarb, at least it is milder."

"I can feel it, how much is this thing?" Budugen asked eagerly.

"Brick tea is very rare in Dahan at present, so when I got the goods, it was consistent. The leader will not let me sell it at a loss, right? As for the butter, as a friendship, I can teach the leader how to make butter..." Liu Tao laughed.

This thing has no technical content, so instead of letting Bu Dugen find a way to get it, it is better to take it out.

"How much is a piece of brick tea?" Budugen was a little embarrassed.

Liu Tao didn't talk nonsense, and passed a piece of brick tea over. After all, it was pressed very firmly, and a piece weighed about a catty.The actual cost is [-] Wen, but for the technology of processing tea into brick tea, [-] Wen is normal, right?Just earn two hundred coins of hard-earned money!

Budugen took it over and weighed it, and felt that it was indeed thick.Then I saw the missing corner, not much, according to this amount, if you drink it by yourself, it will not be a problem for a month...

"Four sheep, or cows and horses of the same value, for two pieces of brick tea!" Bu Dugen thought about the price, and the current transaction price is [-] Wen for one sheep, [-] Wen for four, which is [-] Wen more , should be enough.

"Five, or cows and horses of the same value!" Liu Tao didn't want to suffer a loss, and originally planned to use the border trade to squeeze Xianbei, "Who knows if the leader will resell it to other tribes, when the time comes, there will be more than ten sheep and a tea brick or something... ...As long as this thing does not get in the water, it will not be a problem for a year."

"Okay, five is five!" Budugen thought for a while, and finally agreed.The main reason is that Liu Tao reminded him that this thing can be resold to others, not many, just sell eight sheep, and he still makes money in the end, "How much is there?"

"It's not too much at the moment, it's only about 20 yuan. I've already got someone to buy it, but tea, even in Yizhou, the main production area, doesn't have a special cultivation, and it takes a lot of labor to transport it out..." Liu Tao replied.

"I want it all!" Bu Du didn't say a word, and immediately wrapped it up.

"Don't be so anxious, there are still many good things..." Liu Tao smiled, it is too easy to fool people who have never seen the world.

Ironware and rhubarb belong to bulk transactions, and others want as much as they have.Then there is wine, which is also in high demand.

The quantity of tea cannot keep up, so it can only be regarded as a small transaction.What is unbelievable is that silk brocades seem to be selling well on the grasslands.No wonder those caravans brought a lot of goods here. At first Liu Tao doubted whether this thing could be sold.

There is also some lacquerware, which is mainly used by nobles such as leaders to decorate their facades, and perhaps silk is the same.

On the other side of the grassland, fur, wool, and livestock are mainly sold. According to Liu Tao's needs, he transported several hundred young adults, including thirty or so half-grown children.

"Can medicinal materials be included in the ranks of commodities?" Liu Tao looked at Budugen.

"We don't know what medicinal materials you Han people need... If you can describe the general shape and shape, or give us some samples, we can help." Budugen was stunned when he heard this, and then expressed his opinion.

Xianbei itself is not a pure grassland nation, and can mix well in the mountains and forests.Otherwise, are so many leathers still obtained on the grassland?

"I'll go back and make arrangements for this." Liu Tao nodded. The Yinshan Mountains are also a natural treasure house of medicinal materials. The key depends on the supply of medicinal materials from the Yinshan Mountains and Taihang Mountains. He can completely build Yunzhong into the largest medical sanctuary in the Han Dynasty.

Uh... just to be on the safe side, maybe you can consider Taiyuan, or Shangdang or something.

In case hundreds of years later, an unfilial descendant loses the land outside the Great Wall, and everything in this holy land of medicine is also cheaper for foreigners.As long as the grasslands are not occupied, even if one ethnic group is wiped out, another ethnic group will appear soon.

National extinction is always the last step, and national assimilation is the right way, and it is more in line with Huaxia's values.

It's not that it can't be cheap, but it's a bit disgusting to think that a neighbor in the future will claim the Chinese medicine that he learned in the past as his own, and then say that the Chinese medicine was passed down by them, which is a bit disgusting.

Of course, it's obviously too early to think about this now...

However, during a war, the consumption of medicines must be huge.Especially in the era without antibiotics, many more soldiers died from wound infections than directly died on the battlefield.

At this stage, Liu Tao can only use high-grade alcohol for disinfection, and at the same time do high-temperature sterilization to avoid this situation.However, considering the lack of alcohol, only officers can be given priority.

The transaction was completed, and everyone was very satisfied. Nothing happened during the period, but he was somewhat dissatisfied with the fact that he had to fix this problem when he went to the toilet. However, this toilet paper is really a good thing.

When Bu Dugen left, he even secretly told Liu Tao: "Next time we trade, this thing can be traded appropriately."

Sure enough, why use sticks and leaves when toilet paper can be used?No matter what nationality is the same!Liu Tao's only concern is whether foreign countries will call China from China (porcelain) to Toilet paper (toilet paper) in the future.

In view of the good deal this time, Bu Dugen also generously increased the number of horses traded to the upper limit of [-] horses.And said that horses, especially war horses, according to the rules of the grassland, can only be traded to friends!

Liu Tao also smiled at this, and said a few friendly words to each other.It's just that I'm not too happy. After all, Budugen only raised the upper limit, but how much they can trade each time depends on how much they bring.

I have to say that Budugen is indeed capable of becoming the leader of Xianbei...

Chapter 320 Luoyang Messenger Arrives

"How's the situation of the horses?" After sending Bu Dugen away, Liu Tao was of course concerned about the outcome of the trade.The caravans this time, excluding the caravans who are used to taking the trade route in Yunzhong, are more of Zhen's, Zhang's and Su's teams.

"They are all good war horses, and they can be put into use, but... there are almost no mares." Zhang Shiping, who was counting the horses, replied, and he personally came to preside over the trade.

He haggled down the price of a war horse of [-] guan to [-] guan.It's just that the transaction is mainly in the form of barter, so these representatives of Xianbei don't have much feeling.The maximum number of materials that can be exchanged has decreased, but there is no idea how much is less.

Liu Tao couldn't help but sigh with emotion, these two deserved to go to Youzhou to engage in border trade.It's just that they traded with Wuhuan before, but this time they traded with Xianbei.
