Chapter 14 Ju State Market

When Huakai came to the big market in Juguobuqi County, it was the first time he saw what a big market is.

Buqi County is near the sea. There are many ships here. Ships from the south coast are docked along the coast of Buqi County, and they can reach the south of South Vietnam as far as they are. Among them, Zhongguo and Chu have the most ships.

What makes Huakai hard to believe is how prosperous the market is, but the protection of the city wall is not visible.

No one here charges you an entrance fee, and there is even no commercial tax here. This is a commodity trade zone agreed by Qi State and several surrounding countries. Every year, one month after November, few people come at other times.

Most of the houses here are simple wooden shed structures, and some use tents directly. Entering the big market is full of vendors doing business, all kinds of goods are only you can’t think of, there is no one you can’t find here.



“Grandpa, where is the horse market? Should we go to the horse market now?” Hua Kai asked.

“Let’s go to Marshall to explore the wind first, Wei Hong, you go to the inn to book two yards… Don’t be too expensive!” Hua Xing said to Wei.

“Don’t worry! Master!” Wei Hong took 30 silver from Hua Kai and left.

Huajia’s funds are left with less than 2 gold, and the tolls on the road cost more than 30 silver. Counting accommodation and meals, Huakai now has 1 gold and 20 silver left. If the horse cannot be sold, they will go home. The travel expenses may not be enough.

Grandfather Huakai walked all the way from the west to the south of the market, and encountered countless shops, all kinds of southern exquisite silk, cotton, linen, as well as the tea which is in short supply in Qi.

“Grandpa, this salt is sold by the stone. One stone only costs 200 bone coins.” Hua Kai saw a salt shop and shouted in surprise after seeing the price marked on it.

“Let’s go! Brick tea, salt, and animal bones are the highest tolls. We transport this salt back. The tolls for a stone of salt are at least 10 silver. By then, a catty of salt will cost 12 bone coins, which is not much profit.” Hua Xing Speaking of.

Guangxian salt is about 20 bone coins per catty, but the salt that I usually eat is much better than this. Even if it is shipped back and sold for 15 bone coins, it is estimated that it will not be sold.

After walking a few steps, Huakai saw a stall selling salt again. The salt was as white as powder, which was many times better than the coarse salt just now. Huakai approached and asked for the price, but the shopkeeper said that a catty cost 10 bone coins. One stone in Qi is about 220 kilograms, which means that the price of refined salt is about ten times that of coarse salt.

“This price difference is too big!” Hua Kai couldn’t help but said aloud.

“The little guest officer, how can that black salt be compared with my refined salt. My refined salt is naturally formed in the Tianshui Lake. Generally, only the big family can eat it. The little guest official buys some home and tastes it, but it has a bitter taste. Nothing.” The seller looked at Hua Xing but said to Hua Kai.

“You can buy me a catty.” Hua Kai gave the other party 10 bone coins for a catty, and went to the coarse salt booth just now to buy a few catties of coarse salt.

“What do you buy these salt for? The coarse salt is generally not eaten by people, it tastes very bitter.” Hua Xing said puzzledly.”Do an experiment tonight.” Hua Kai returned.

Today, the big market in Buqi County of Ju Country has been open for the fourth day, which is the time when there are most people.

Hua Kai and his grandfather and other cadres came to the horse market and were shocked by the endless horse market in front of them.

Huakai discovered that this horse market has no distinction of horses, strong horses, and steeds. All horses are on a large flat ground. The lowest estimate is that the number of horses here exceeds 10,000, which is not comparable to the small Guangxian horse market.

I asked about several horses whose prices are about 20% more expensive than Guangxian County. There are more than a dozen types of horses of various breeds, and Huakai is dazzled to see.

I found an open space to tie all the horses to the pegs, and soon a customer came forward to ask for the price. The Huakai horse opened 24 gold, and the strong horse 5 gold, but the other party directly offered 220 gold to pack and take it away.

Those who bought the Huakai horses belonged to merchants from Chu State. Seeing that the prices of the Huakai horses were really affordable, they bought them all at once.

Huakai was also stunned by this purchase speed. He got 220 gold for his grandfather to check carefully and confirm that he was right. Then he put his heart in his stomach.

After going around the horse market for a while, Huakai didn’t find a single horse. The average price of strong horses was more than 6 gold, and the price of steed horses was as high as 30 gold. Huakai finally knew why he could sell all the horses so quickly. Quick shot.

The second Zhuang followed Huakai with a look of regret, but Huakai was very satisfied. The own horses have just been upgraded, and the quality of the horses is still worse than those in the horse market. He has 16 gold plus a strong horse. His capital has increased tenfold in a dozen days, so what is there to be dissatisfied with.

With this 220 gold, the Hua family’s lost money this year can basically be wiped out, and the family will return to normal. Next year, the family will have the capital to take the forest road again, and everything will return to normal, even better than before.

Thinking of this, Hua Kai silently checked the main task 1 of the “Super Patriarch System”, 98% has been completed, and the distance to success is infinitely close.

Although the horse market in Juguo is expensive, there are indeed a lot of horses. There are so many horses that have achieved 99% physical upgrades, and there are even BMWs for sale here. Huakai asked about the price, and the other party directly asked for 300 gold, which is really not an ordinary person. It can be bought.

After wandering in the horse market for more than an hour, Huakai 26 Jin bought 4 strong horses. In addition, he wanted to buy a few horses that were about to break through. After the trial, he trained to become a BMW and earn at least a hundred gold.

It is a pity that not to mention the horses that are about to be upgraded along the way, horses with more than 70% experience are rare, and most of them are not very spiritual.

Most of the horses who can come here to buy horses are of very high level. Huakai didn’t find any leaks along the way. Instead, I found many horse dealers who use strong horses as their stallions to sell horses. There is no tax for doing business here. But there is no military protection either. Everything depends on the tacit understanding of the market over the years. Being deceived is a matter of your own ability. No one will do justice to you.

“Get out of the way! Be careful…”

At this time, Hua Kai suddenly heard a shout in front of the horse market. A red horse galloped from a distance. The stalls hit along the way were all turned on their backs. Many people were knocked down and groaned on the ground, unable to get up.

For the first time Hua Kai saw such a horse, he couldn’t help using [True Eye] to explore the attributes of the red horse.

Dawanma: Tier 3 99%

Physique: 36

Speed: 29

Spirituality: 38

Features: Know the Lord, travel alone for thousands of miles


There are actually two characteristics. It was the first time Hua Kai saw a horse with characteristics. He saw that some people had taken up weapons and started to block the horse’s path, so he loved the horse and asked his grandfather to help save the red horse. Dawanma.

Hua Xing flew to the red horse to be empty, and Ma Hongma seemed to feel the crisis and made a neighing noise. Huakai True Qi was wrapped around the horse’s neck. At this time, the road ahead was blocked by passers-by. The red horse instinctively slowed down. Hua Xing took the opportunity to grab the horse’s neck, but the horse struggled to get rid of it. If you don’t open, passers-by can’t help but burst into applause when they see this place.

“Oh, you finally stopped…Thanks to the help of this adult, otherwise my horse will get into trouble today.” The owner of the horse looks like a horse dealer who specializes in selling horses. He saw Hua Xing not. Thanks for stopping.

“No, be careful in the future, don’t let the horse run around.” Hua Xing said and handed the horse’s rein to its owner.

“Thank you…thank you…” The horse seller was going to pull the horse away after he said it, but the red horse seemed to be blocking the opponent’s gas, so he refused to take any steps. Passers-by crowded around to watch the jokes, and the horse seller was a little embarrassed. .

“This Uncle, I don’t know if you can sell this horse.” Hua Kai suddenly stepped forward and asked at this time.

This Dawan horse was bought by Liu Pingli from the Qiang nationality. It took nearly a year to walk all the way to the country of Ju. Although this horse is not a BMW, it is full of spirituality. I brought the horse team to try, but I didn’t expect this horse to be frightened and cause trouble.

“My horse came from the Qiang nationality not far away. The old man saved it today. You can buy the horse at a price of 60 gold and take it away!” Liu Pingli thought for a while and said.

Liu Pingli also felt distressed when he said this. The horse was frightened just now, thanks to the help of the old man from the other side. As the caravan leader, if he is stingy in the face of so many onlookers, this will have a great impact on the reputation of the caravan.

Huakai’s horse looks very good. It’s not wrong to say that it is worth 60 gold coins, but the other party said that he was a horse bought for 60 gold in the Qiang ethnic group. Huakai didn’t believe it if he was killed. If he could spend 10 gold, it would be regarded as the other party. The price is high.

“Okay, 60 gold is 60 gold. We should have a destiny with this horse. If it weren’t for my grandpa today, he might have died here.” Hua Kai said the truth. Today, this horse is frightened and there is no expert in the training period. The shot will definitely not be able to calm it down. The loss of their caravan is a small matter, and the damage caused by the destruction of the market is enough for him to eat a pot.

“What the little brother said is Liu Pingli, the person in charge of the Four Seas Caravan. It is also a fate to meet the little brother today. Whether he can go to my firm’s resident or not.” Liu Pingli, as the manager of the Four Seas Caravan, likes to make friends wherever he goes. Shanyuan, although he is only ten years old when I met Hua Kai today, his speech, manners and temperament are not that simple, and the people around him are also headed by him. As long as there are no accidents, this young man will not be unknown in the future.

Besides, as the old man is a master of Qi training, it is very important for their entire business to make friends with such masters.

Huakai is also very curious about the commercial banks. The commercial banks are the products of the caravan development to a certain extent. They will establish own base areas in important places for business in various places, and calculate the price difference between different bases in a unified manner every year, so as to maximize the profit of each business. change.

“Then I will disturb you. I have long admired Sihai Commercial Bank for a long time, and it is a great honor to have the opportunity to explore today.” Hua Kai agreed after thinking about it.It is not easy for ordinary families of the Four Seas Commercial Bank to get involved with it. Since the other party invited Huakai, how could they not go, and he just secretly put all the money in the space, and he couldn’t get out of his pocket 60 gold at once. , How could others not be suspicious when they saw it, and they would not be suspicious when they went to the Four Seas Commercial Bank to find an opportunity to take out the money.

Er Zhuang and Huajiabao two Kaiyuan realm masters went to lead the Dawan horse, but the horse didn’t seem to recover from the fright. Seeing people coming over either kicked or bited, several people couldn’t help it.

So Hua Xing had to go out in person. Hua Xing came to the horse, and before he could get close, the red horse calmed down by himself. Hua Xing stood by it and touched each other with his head, showing intimacy. action.

Everyone was amazed. They didn’t expect that there is such a spiritual horse, obviously he has already recognized the lord. The legendary horse is born to recognize the lord. I didn’t expect to meet a horse here today.

Liu Pingli had already spoken about selling horses for 60 gold. At this time, it was too late to return, so he planned to make friends with Huakai sincerely and set a good destiny.

Hua Kai followed Liu Pingli to the east of the market. It didn’t take long before he saw a row of tents with various large packages around the tents. These were large packages for commercial use, and the tents were also full of large and small packages.

“These are the new goods that our four-sea trading firm has just shipped from Weiguo, Songguo, Zhengguo, Caiguo and other places. Basically, they have already been booked with people. Brother Hua, if you need any goods, please tell me in advance. I can get it for you with one sound.” Liu Pingli said confidently.

“Then Uncle Liu owns these goods, how much are these goods worth!” Hua Kai pointed to the large package in the distance and said.

“Mainly the goods of the Qi family and the Tian family, and you also have some from the Han family in Guangxian. These are all goods such as silk, cotton cloth, brick tea, spices, etc. These are all food. These are more than 40,000 gold!” Liu Pingli pointed away Said the tent here.

Hua Kai has also heard of the caravans of the Qi family, and heard that they have to go to the vicinity of the food country at one time. Every year countless animal bones are transported back from the grassland. No one knows how much they have made.

“The Four Seas Commercial Bank is really strong, and it can do business with the Qi family. This trip will definitely make a lot of gold.” Hua Kai said back.

“This… can’t make a lot of money. These things can only be regarded as bringing goods to the family! These things are really not profitable by our firm. We have at least more than 10,000 gold in the cost of 40,000 gold goods. The maximum profit is 20,000 gold…”

Hua Kai opened his eyes wide and couldn’t answer. The 20,000 yuan profit was still not making much. It was poverty that limited his imagination.

At this time, Liu Pingli took him to the side of the horse herd. The horses here are all free-range in the stables, and it seems that most of them are good horses above the steed.

“If we have a good relationship with families from all over the world, we will be able to travel smoothly from various countries in the North. You see, these horses are all shipped back from Xiqiang. There are more than 2,000 horses in total, and five of them are rare BMWs.” Huakai Looking at the horses in the distance, he said with pride.

Huakai probably estimated the value of these horses, at least it should be more than 50,000 gold.

“These horses are shipped to countries in the south, and they are worth at least 60,000 gold. Our firm earns a little drizzle. In fact, the big heads are still in the hands of various families, and they have regular cooperation with the major tribes on the grassland.”

The two said that Liu Pingli asked Huakai to take a look at their goods. Huakai picked some silk products and top-quality tea and sugar. The quantity was small but it cost more than 10 gold. This was still Liu Pingli’s bargaining price. Luxury goods are indeed very expensive, and Liu Pingli can only give Huakai a small amount within the scope of his authority.

“Uncle Liu, in fact, our family also goes to Donghu, Daiguo, Linhu and other nearby places for business every year. In the past, we used to do some food, weapons, cattle, sheep and horse sales. Do you think we can make more profit in our business? “Hua Kai asked for advice.

“Food, low-quality weapons, low-grade livestock, and fur are the best businesses. If there is no big tribe cooperation, brick tea and refined salt will make the most profit without considering the tax collection of countries. The weapons, armor and sweets should be the most popular in the grassland.”
