The history of counterfeit antique dealers' cottage struggle

The territory of hundreds of clans is obtained by strength, and similarly, the stalls in the open-air trading mall are also divided by clan strength.Those with strong tribes have their stalls in good locations, while those with weak tribes can only set up their stalls in remote places in the market.

Jinwenshe took a look at a dozen stalls in remote areas. The owners of these stalls were basically tribal people from the cold northern regions. One of the men was wearing a short commoner jacket, very neat and unique, which made Jinwenshe take a second look.

The well-dressed man saw Jin Wenshe staring at him, and hurriedly called out: "Guest, do you want a magic stone?"

The man is of medium build, with honey-colored skin, black curly hair, an aquiline nose, deep sunken eyes, and ears similar to those of humans on Earth, with black hairs on the edges.From the appearance, Jin Wenshe couldn't tell what tribe the man was from, and there was no one who looked like him in Shengzhou City.Maybe it was a tribe that was far away from the territory of the Tong tribe, and came to this market to trade because of wandering around the mainland.

"What kind of magic stones are there?" Jin Wenshe approached the men's booth and saw that there were colorful small stones on the men's booth.

"There are everything, this kind can be used as medicine, and that kind can be used as a talisman."

"How to protect yourself?" Jin Wenshe became interested and squatted down in front of the men's booth.

"Grinding this stone into ashes can hit the enemy and make him blind." The man introduced one of the gray-white stones.

Jinwenshe picked up the gray-white stone with his fingers, and couldn't help laughing. This so-called magic is just a piece of quicklimestone, which reacts with water, and the powder splashed into the eyes will cause blindness.

Seeing that the Jinwenshe paid close attention to his explanation, the man introduced it even harder: "...this red red stone is burned with fire and mixed with water to extract a highly poisonous substance. This highly poisonous substance can kill the enemy invisible."

When the man explained the last red stone, his voice lowered a lot. He was a well-rounded person, but with this kind of behavior, he seemed a bit sneaky.

Staring at the red stone, Jin Wenshe was moved. It seems that his glass mirror has no shortage of raw materials. The red stone is cinnabar, which can be used to refine mercury.

"You made all of these?"

In fact, these stones can be found in nature, but the man can tell the reactants of these stones, he should have refined them himself.

"Of course." The man replied simply.

Jinwen Society is not interested in limestone and other stones, and Bifeng Mountain also has limestone. The red cinnabar stone is what he urgently needs, but he will not buy the raw cinnabar stone picked up by the man.

"I want this kind of stone-killing invisible extract, and I want a lot."

"This..." The man hesitated for a moment. He originally only wanted to sell stones. "It's not easy to refine that thing, I want a Zijing for such a can!" The man gestured for the size.

"This price is too high..." Jin Wenshe was very satisfied with the price offered by the other party, but in order not to let the other party know, he showed a look of being too expensive.

"It's dangerous to refine this thing. No one can refine it except me. If you think it's too expensive, you won't be able to buy it."

"Okay then, we will trade here next month. I am the Wenshe of Bifengshan Mountain Outer Sect."

"I live in Mobei." The man glanced at Jinwenshe, seeing that there was no contemptuous expression on Jinwenshe's face, he said his name. "You can ask me to wash."

"Um, ok, wash! I'll see you next month."

"It's a deal, I will definitely come next month."

After the two parties confirmed the trading time for next month, Jin Wenshe stood up and prepared to leave.

"Guest, we also have stones there, which are more beautiful than the stones of the Mobei people. If the guest needs it, we can bring it to the guest next month." The raccoon, who had never had any business, saw the Mobei man beside him. You can sell the stone, and quickly call the Jinwen Society.

"Oh? What beautiful stones?" Jin Wenshe glanced at the Tanuki man's booth. On the booth were some prey and several kinds of herbs unique to the Northland. The items were not expensive and not easy to sell.

"Here, this kind of stone is very bright and the lightest stone. It can be made into jewelry." The raccoon took a pendant from his neck and handed it to Jinwen Society for inspection.

"Essence of coal!" Once the thing is in hand, Jinwen Society knows what it is. It is coal produced by the joint participation of lower plants and higher plants. It is also a combustible organic rock with a metallic luster. It is made of coal on the earth. The handicrafts are of high value.

"No, it's Wujing, which can only be found in Wushi soil." The raccoon retorted.

"You have a lot of blackstone and soil in your place?"

Coal essence is sandwiched between the coal seams, and Jinwenshe believes that the black earth and stones mentioned by the raccoon population are coal seams.

"Yes, a lot. Those black soils will always burn in summer and emit poisonous gas." The raccoons sighed, because there are too few places suitable for planting in their territory.

"Which tribe of the raccoon clan are you?"

"We are the southern raccoon closest to Bifeng Mountain." The raccoon puffed out his chest, looking a little proud.

Like the Wen people, the raccoon living in the northern part of Bifeng Mountain is also a non-unified tribe.It's just that the Wen clan is only split into two sects, and they can unite to participate in the division competition.There are more than a dozen tribes in the Liren tribe. Although each tribe also joins the alliance to participate in the competition, they are fighting each other for the position of leader, and there are constant civil wars.During the first division competition, the population of the Li tribe was ten times larger than that of the Wen tribe, and the number of Venerables was also ten times larger.But today, the population of the entire tribe is comparable to that of the Wen tribe, and there is no longer a venerable, and the venerables are all consumed in internal fighting.

As the strength of the tribe faded, the territory of the raccoon tribe became worse and worse. In the last session, the tribe lost the qualification to participate in the division competition and was driven into the Northland.

To the north of Bifeng Mountain is the territory of the raccoon tribe. The closer to Bifeng Mountain, the better the living conditions.

"Ha! You always cross the border to steal potato flour! You even steal unripe potato flour from our fields!" Wen Gu jumped up and complained.

Potato flour is a starchy crop that Jinwenshe thinks is very unpalatable. This crop is ripened twice a year, one season in early summer and one season in late autumn. The taste of potato flour ripened in autumn is better than that ripened in summer.

When the Nanli people heard this, they shrank their necks and argued in a low voice. "We didn't cross the border, we hunted for potato flour by ourselves."

Jin Wenshe took a closer look at a few Nanli people who also lowered their heads. These people are all supernatural beings, very thin, and they don't have cloth clothes on their bodies, they are all made of animal skins.These people have special abilities and can go hunting. Those ordinary raccoons cannot hunt, and they cannot get enough food from the barren land alone, so they can only go to the land outside the mountain to forage.

"I don't need this kind of black essence." Some things that are of high value on earth are of little value in this world.Like gold, the value of iron is not as high, because gold is soft.Like Wu Jing, no one likes it.

"However, I want to see those black earth stones. Can you send some black earth stones to Shanwaizong? How about sending a basket of black earth stones and I will give you one-tenth of the potato flour?" People are lost, but one sentence ignites hope for the raccoons.

"Okay! Okay! We'll deliver it right away when we go back." Nanliren nodded repeatedly.It only takes one day to walk from Nanliren's residence to the land outside the mountain.

When returning, Wen Gu's mouth was raised high.

"Gu, what do you think?" Wen Gu's expression was all on his face.

"Doing business with a slut like Mo Bei will bring a bad reputation." Wen Gu pursed his lips, and he purposely lowered his voice.

"Mobei? Do you mean Xi from Mobei?" Jin Wenshe remembers that Xi claimed to be from Mobei. Mobei is in the north of Liren. The land is even more desolate and the climate is very harsh. It is a place for exile and punishment.Both clans who rebelled against the division contest were exiled there.

"Yes, Naxi doesn't look like the two tribes exiled, and he didn't report the name of the tribe. He must have been expelled by the tribe. He is a ronin."

Hundreds of people use their tribe as their surname. When introducing themselves, they will not only give their name, but also their tribe, even immigrants who have left their tribe to survive in other places.However, those who sell magic stones did not report to the tribe, and those who did not report to the tribe were expelled from the tribe, and these people were collectively called ronin.

"The thing refined by that ronin is useful to us, maybe it can make a mirror." Jin Wenshe frowned, not expecting Xi to have such an identity.

"Let's not let people know, we'd better trade secretly." Wen Gu rubbed his hands, and when he heard that he could make a mirror, his attitude immediately changed.

"Hmm! It's better that you are thoughtful, and I will leave this matter to you in the future, how about it?"

"Okay! Leave it to me!" Wen Gu, who was entrusted with a heavy responsibility by Jinwen Society, immediately patted his chest and promised. "However, She, what's the use of the black earth stone? Do you want to replace it with potato flour?"

"Black earth stone can replace sun wood, and we will need it in large quantities in the future."

If the black earth stone is coal, it is a necessary material for the development of the Shanwai sect.At that time, people used a kind of wood called Rishu for burning kilns and iron smelting. This kind of wood had a high calorific value. Because of this natural coke, coal was not regarded by the people of all ethnic groups.It takes about ten years for sun trees to mature, and there are only a few sun trees around Bifeng Mountain, which cannot meet the needs of the outer sect on the mountain.

"She, you know everything now, when will I become as smart as you?" Wen Gu's big eyes flashed...

Jinwenshe glanced sideways at Wen Gu, with an unfathomable expression. "After two narrow escapes, you will suddenly understand everything."

"Do you want to escape twice?" Wen Gu scratched and gave up his fantasy.

In the next few days, the caravan’s goods were sold one after another. Elder Fei was bleeding heavily in the market, and spent ten yuan Zijing to purchase primary elixir, salt, cloth and other daily necessities. The elixir here is half cheaper than Chunyulou. Zhuo Wu also spent five Zijing to purchase many herbs.After purchasing, the remaining fifteen gold was handed over to the Jinwen Society, which made the Jinwen Society overjoyed, and finally became the head of the clan with money.

When checking out at the inn, Jin Wenshe gave the remaining five or six pieces of animal meat to the innkeeper, and expressed his gratitude to the innkeeper for taking care of Tongzong.

The innkeeper held the animal meat and stood at the gate of the inn to watch the caravan go away before returning.

The cargo of the caravan on the return trip was reduced by one-third, and the speed of travel was a little faster.At this time, many tribes returned after trading, and at the gate of Shengcheng, the caravan of the Shanlizong and the Shanwaizong came together.
