Chapter 358 Business

 The thick wooden board was like a thin piece of tissue paper in front of the crossbow gun. It was easily torn into pieces. The crossbow gun continued to move. After penetrating the wooden board, it penetrated deeply into the ground. The tail rod continued to hit the ground.

It was trembling, like a tenacious warrior who seemed to be attacking and charging until the last moment.

Linagu's face was not very good. The distance between the crossbow and his seat was only about a hundred steps, and it was fired from the top of the mountain. In other words, as long as the crossbow car was slightly adjusted, he would be

He will become the target of an attack, and under such a high-speed crossbow attack, unless he predicts the attack route of the crossbow from the beginning, he may not be able to dodge even if he sees it is already in front of him.

This feeling made Lina Gu's scalp tingle for waves, and he wished he could take off his bun and give it a good scratch.

Aren’t these kind of ballistae only found in large cities?

Lina Gu has been in the border county for so many years, and he has only encountered two cities, one is Yunzhong and the other is Linrong...

"Fei Shangjun, is this what you call a display?" Lina Gu's expression was uncertain.

Fei Qian smiled and said, "Yes, but... it's not over yet..."

Endless? What does it mean?

Lina Gu suddenly understood and turned his head suddenly to look towards the top of the mountain.

I heard sharp whines and screams coming one after another, and three more, no, four black threads appeared from the top and plunged down!

"Boom, boom, boom, boom," four almost connected sounds sounded. Lina Gu slowly turned his head. The original huge wooden target could no longer see many wreckage, only five dark crossbows.

Standing sideways and trembling...

Many people in the market heard the sound here. When they came over, many foreigners were stunned. Many people dropped things in their hands without noticing.

The salesmen of the Cui family who were in the market all straightened their backs slightly, and the smiles on their faces looked more friendly.

Although the ballista did not continue to launch, those barbarians in the market who originally spoke loudly due to certain things, for some reason, subconsciously lowered their voices...

Linagu closed his eyes and started a simulation in his mind. If there was only one ballista, his cavalry might be able to rush forward with speed, but if five ballistas were launched in sequence, it would be a disaster!

Lina Gu took a sideways glance at the camp not far away and estimated the distance. From the looks of these crossbow guns, there was no problem at all covering the camp, and the accuracy was really scary...

"I wonder if this display can still be viewed?"

"Ah..." Rinagu felt that his throat was a little dry. He picked up a bowl of wine and took two sips before saying, "Look, look! It's really amazing! It's really amazing..."

Fei Qian smiled and waved his hand for the soldiers to clean up the debris in the field.

You have to change it into money first. Of course Ada knows what money is, but in all his transactions with Han people, and even with people in his tribe, most of the time it is barter, and five is rarely used.

Baht money.

"Why bother? Exchange sheep for money, and then exchange money for tea. Wouldn't it be easier to exchange sheep for tea directly?" Ah Da felt that there was no need to go around in circles. Money can't be eaten or drank, and it's useless to take it.

Huh? And according to previous habits, the so-called money is preferred by the leaders. Ordinary herdsmen like myself, even if they see it, will probably have no interest.

"Hey! Anyway, this is the rule here, and..." Zaku turned around and looked around, and said close to Ata's ear, "Actually, we have suffered losses in the past by exchanging directly. It is better to exchange money! Come on, let me help.

you."

With the help of Zhagu, Ada quickly exchanged the sheep for five baht coins. Then he went to the place where tea bricks were sold and used the five baht coins to buy that small piece of tea bricks. Then he was surprised to find that,

I actually still have a few five-baht coins left in my hand...

"This..." Ah Da looked at the tea bricks on his left hand, and then at the coins on his right hand. His mind was in confusion. Didn't he exchange the sheep for the tea bricks? How come there seemed to be some extra money?

Zaku laughed and said, "That's right, right? Just exchange it as you did before, but you won't have the extra money!"

Ah Da carefully put the tea brick, which was less than a kilogram, into his arms, and squeezed the five-baht coins tightly. Suddenly he seemed to remember something, and ran out...

"Ada, hey! Ada, what are you doing? Are you leaving now?" Zhagu was a little confused, because most of the herdsmen who came here would spend all the five baht they had on hand before going back.

.

Ada kept his feet down while turning around and shouting: "My horse is over there in Bada, and there are still some sheepskins on it. I'll go get it and exchange it for this, this money!"

Well, the value of tea in the Han Dynasty, ordinary tea bricks were about the same as the price of meat, and the price of meat was 10 kilograms of meat ≈ 1 stone grain (there are records of the price of 10 kilograms of meat combined with 1 stone grain), and the price of 1 stone grain was roughly grain = stone/

About 220 qian (depending on the fluctuation), 1 stone of rice = 13 to 15 kilograms, and finally the price of a sheep in Han Dynasty is sheep = sheep / 300 to 500 qian, so if you calculate it this way, in this market

How much money did Fei Qian make if he traded a sheep?
