Words and mouths are Lu 中⑦④江⑦江⑦江

The next morning, everyone left Luo County and rushed to Chengdu.

From Luo County to Chengdu, the road is smooth, and less than a hundred miles. It took everyone less than two days to reach the city of Chengdu. Although Liu Yan had not moved to Chengdu at this time, Chengdu was located in the center of the Chengdu Plain, and the country of Tianfu was rich in things and people. Its prosperity was far better than that of all parts of Sichuan.

In fact, Yizhou is not as barbaric as later generations imagined. In the fifth year of Yonghe in Emperor Shun (140), there were more than 56 million people in the country, while Yizhou had more than 7 million, accounting for one-eighth of the country's total population. In the late Han Dynasty, Yizhou did not encounter major chaos or large-scale epidemics. The only major melee was Liu Bei's battle in the third year of entering Sichuan. By the time of the demise of Shu Han, the population was only more than 900,000, with 100,000 troops and 40,000 officials. Even the State of Wu mocked Shu for "going to his court without hearing the right words, and his wild people were all fond of them."

It can be seen how bad the internal affairs of Shu Han were.

But this is all for the future.

Cao Ang and his party arrived outside Chengdu City. Cao Ang was preparing to stay here for a few more days, and Yang Hong had to send his father back to burial, so he could not delay. So Cao Ang asked Chu Ning and Chen Dian Yutu to escort Yang Hong to Wuyang. When Cao Ang got his job, everyone met in Wuyang.

After entering the city, Cao Ang first visited Zhang Su and Zhang Song brothers,

When Cao Ang saw the two brothers, he didn't dare to believe it for a while. Zhang Su was majestic and had a very magnificent appearance. Although Zhang Song was not as good as his brother, he was not bad either. Luo Guanzhong said that Zhang Song had "the forehead was pointed, his nose was crooked and his teeth were exposed, and his appearance was not good", which was obviously a slander.

You should know that people who are too ugly cannot become officials.

The two brothers, Zhang Su, were a bit unrestrained. However, Cao Ang’s identity is here, and the two are happy to make friends.

Later, Cao Ang visited the bearded Zhang Yu and the petty Zhang Yi.

These people are all from the Chengdu family and are also local celebrities. Cao Ang knew that it was impossible to recruit a few people, so he just made a good relationship with them.

After visiting a few people, Cao Ang went to the market in Chengdu under the guidance of Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi and Yang Hong are good friends, so Yang Hong wrote a letter to Zhang Yi, asking the other party to entertain Cao Ang and his party. Although Zhang Yi is a stingy, he is smart and righteous, and values ​​reputation. He is also very respectful to Cao Ang.

The reason why Cao Ang wanted to stay in Chengdu for a longer period of time was not only because he had to visit more people, but also because he wanted to see the products in Yizhou.

For example, medicinal materials, fur, etc., it may be useful if it is done well.

This is also Cao Ang’s habit. Every time he arrives, he will collect enough information, terrain, customs, goods, and goods. Even if it is useless now, what if it can be used in the future?

Everyone soon arrived in Nanshi. Zhang Yi told Cao Ang that this was the largest market in Chengdu. Most of the Nanman, Xiqiang, and the people who traded here, so they were the most prosperous.

Zhang Yi even threatened that in Chengdu Nanshi, all goods that exist in the Yizhou market can be purchased.

Zhang Yi is really not boasting. In the market, there are many barbarians and various goods, and there are all kinds of goods. Cao Ang has seen many goods from the Western Regions, but it is the first time that the Southern Barbarians are.

Cao Ang purchased some special fruits to make them very fresh. As for some gadgets, they bought them for free.

Everyone arrived at a cattle and horse market, with all kinds of Western Qiang horses. Cao Ang was not short of horses. At first, he just had a visit attitude, but soon he found that someone was selling yaks around a corner.

Cao Ang's eyes couldn't turn away immediately.

At this time, Zhang Yi saw it and introduced: "This is a cattle produced by the cattle of the ox (阿大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大大

Cao Ang nodded.

"It is said in the "Northern Mountain Classic" that there are animals in Panhou's mountain, which looks like a cow, and has hair in four sections, and is called a cow. It should be said that it is this kind of animal."

"Your Majesty is so knowledgeable."

Staring at the bull, Cao Ang had a different thought.

Of course, Cao Ang didn't need to slap cows to transport goods, but for Cao Ang, slap cows and slap cow tendons are very useful.

Compared with ordinary cowhide, beef tendon and squid, beef tendon has better elasticity and the armor made has better defense effect. Moreover, because pure iron horse armor is generally too heavy, which affects mobility, armor made of squid and iron sheets will greatly reduce the weight, but can play a sufficient role.

The defense is not reduced and the agility is enhanced, and it is simply a treasure given by God.

At this time, Zhang Yi saw Cao Ang's gaze and asked, "Your Majesty is interested in this thing, I will buy it and give it to you."

Cao Ang shook his head and said, "Junsi (Zhang Yi), do you know where to sell this kind of cowhide and tendon? I want some."

Zhang Yi was not surprised by this. Cao Ang liked the squid. If he fell in love with the squid, it would be a strange thing.

Zhang Yi led Cao Ang to a shop that specializes in cowhide. This shop was opened by a Shu County man, and it was the largest cowhide merchant in Yizhou.

The shop owner is a middle-aged man, white and fat, smiling, like a Maitreya Buddha.

The other party obviously knew Zhang Yi, so he treated Cao Ang and his party very enthusiastically.

Cao Ang entered, circled around the shop, and looked at the room of plastered cowhides. Cao Ang turned his head to look at the boss and said, "How much does this plastered cowhide cost."

The boss replied enthusiastically: "The top-grade two thousand coins, the middle-grade one thousand two hundred coins, and the bottom-grade eight hundred coins."

After hearing this, Cao Ang knew it was a bit expensive.

Mouth five six three seven four three six seven five

Although Cao Ang didn't know the price of a beef, a live beef on the market is usually about 2,000 to 4,000 yuan. The north is close to Hudi, and it is even cheaper, while the dead beef is less than half the price. The cowhide made with nitrogen is mostly between 500 and 1,000 yuan, accounting for a very important part of the price of a dead beef. Although his price is a beef, it cannot be so expensive.

In fact, buying cows is just about working and eating meat. Apart from wartime, not many people want cow skins on weekdays.

Cao Ang didn't want to bargain with the other party in front of so many people, as it would seem like he was losing his identity.

So Cao Ang said, "I have packed all the cowhide and beef tendons in your shop. I will also want as much as you want in the future. As long as you have the quantity, I will eat all of them."

The white-faced boss was immediately shocked.

Cao Ang smiled and said, "What, I'm here to do business, but I won't do it anymore."

Cao Ang ignored this person anymore, and left Li Ci, who was with him, and asked him to deal with the matter and negotiate the price. He took the people away from the shop.

At this time, Zhang Yi woke up from Cao Ang's wealth and awesomeness. He looked at Cao Ang for a long time and asked, "What do you want so many scoundrels?"

Cao Ang smiled and said, "It's rare to be expensive. This thing is worth two thousand coins in Chengdu, but when it comes to Luoyang, it's worth four thousand coins."

After hearing this, Zhang Yi was silent for a moment.

At this moment, Gan Ben, who was in charge of the alert, hurriedly approached and handed something to Cao Ang. Cao Ang looked closely and found that it was a pair of armor made of old vines.

Note: 1. Whether it is the fifth year of Yonghe or the demise of Shu Han, the population is all the registered population. As for the actual number of people, it cannot be calculated. However, if the non-registered population does not pay taxes to the government, even if there is a 100 million yuan, it does not mean much to the government.

2. The price of cattle in the Han Dynasty was about two or three thousand during the peaceful season. The "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" records that "using two cows, five thousand straight". There is a record of the price of cattle in the Han bamboo slips of Juyan. This price in the article is for reference only and does not affect the plot.

3. In ancient times, beef was edible, which was cheaper than pork. The slaughter of plowing oxen was prohibited. The book "Guanjian of Ming History" records that during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, the price of beef in Zhejiang was 14 liters per catty, while the price of pork was 15 liters.
