The things that the people brought were all kinds of things, including everything.
There are many things to eat, wear and use, as well as things that are not famous. The patterns are also very strange. There are many people looking at the strange things, but I don’t know whether it is due to communication difficulties or other reasons. There are more people watching than taking action.
The people chattered and danced, while the people onlookers stared at each other from a distance and looked at each other in surprise, but no one took action.
"Sister, what are they talking about?"
"You can't understand me, and I can't understand you, so how can we do business?"
Yang stood aside and was worried about the people. He had to spend so much money to come all this way, so he had to go back empty-handed.
Huo Xi smiled and looked at each of the people's booths one by one.
The maritime trade routes of this dynasty were mainly in three directions: East Ocean, Nanyang and West Ocean.
The East Ocean mainly refers to the countries of Japan, Ryukyu, and Korea; the South Ocean mainly refers to the countries east of Taiwan Island and west of Malacca such as Java, Guri, Manchuria, Sumatra, and Luzon; and the West Ocean mainly refers to the countries west of Malacca, Portugal, the Netherlands, and Spain.
these countries.
The goods brought by the Ban people are also different.
For example, spices from Southeast Asia include ambergris, benzoin, incense, woody incense, frankincense, agarwood, and seasonings such as pepper, cloves, and peppercorns that are favored by wealthy families. There are also woods, such as ebony and rosewood.
.There are also raw materials for various handicrafts, including tortoiseshell, ivory, rhinoceros horn, ox horn, tortoise shell...
As for the scimitar, bow, and arrows, one could tell at a glance that they came from the Japanese country in the East.
Huo Xi looked at it and wondered what he could buy with the money in his hand.
Picking up the leaks, we still have to pick up the leaks.
She couldn't afford pearls and gems, and her family couldn't afford to enjoy rare birds and animals under such conditions.
This incense, that incense, this tortoiseshell box, glass bottles, bowls, ivory cups, cups, etc. Just buy a handful of cheap ones to enjoy. Guangfeng Shui cannot currently do these businesses.
"Sister, sister, what is that? It looks so weird!" Pi Xiaozi desperately grabbed her skirt and pulled her away.
Huo Xi looked up and said, Huo, good fellow, we have brought all the camels here!
I don’t know how many days it was floating on the sea, and it looked like it was wilting, but at least it was still alive.
"This is a camel. It grows in those dry and hot desert places. It can carry heavy loads and walk in harsh conditions for a long time."
"Wow, I haven't passed it yet!" Pi Xiaozi screamed, pulling Yang closer to take a look. There were many adults and children watching the excitement around the camel, pointing at the camel, but they didn't dare to step forward.
.
"Sister, will it kick someone?"
"Camels are very docile."
"What are the two things on it?"
"It's its humps. Everything it eats is turned into fat and stored in its two humps, so it can still survive without eating for a long time."
"Wow!" Pi Xiaozi screamed and stared.
One man put a piece of felt between two humps and gestured to the crowd. Many people were unaware of the situation. As soon as he approached, the crowd automatically backed away. He talked for a long time, but no one was there.
He paid attention to it, became more and more anxious, and danced with joy.
Huo Xi smiled, lowered her head and asked Huo Nian: "Are you afraid?"
"Not afraid."
Huo Xi led him towards the camel. Yang was so frightened that she stopped her and called out: "Xi'er?"
"It's okay, mother."
When the people saw the two children coming, they were very happy and walked over to them.
Huo Xi pointed at Huo Nian, and then at the camel. The man nodded happily, walked towards the camel, patted it, and the camel knelt down.
"Nian'er, do you dare to go up and sit down?"
Nian'er was a little excited, glanced at her, and nodded: "Dare!"
The man then hugged him, straddled him on the hump, and sat on him. Yang and Huo Erhuai were so frightened that their hands balled up and they wanted to go up and take Nian'er down.
"It's okay, sister, that camel looks quite docile."
"Then that hunchback looks bigger than a horse. What if he kicks up his hooves and runs and falls Nian'er?"
"It's okay, sister, Xi'er is sensible."
Look at Huo Nian again. He was a little scared when he was put on the camel. When the camel got up, he suddenly became taller. He was excited and scared at the same time. He hugged the camel tightly and walked towards Huo Xi.
Take a look.
"It's okay, don't be afraid, my sister is here."
Pi Xiaozi was comforted, his hands slowly loosened, and he started to look around while riding on the camel.
The man led the camel and circled the crowd. The boy sat on the camel, sitting high up and seeing far away. When he saw the onlookers looking at him, he immediately put a smile on his face.
When he saw a child of his own age looking at him with envy, he straightened his body immediately.
Yang and Huo Erhuai saw that he was sitting happily, not afraid, and felt relieved.
When Huo Nian was carried around enough, he was carried down, still looking at the camel reluctantly.
But it was no longer his turn. Many children gathered around and wanted to ride the camel. The man stretched out his hand and wanted to collect five copper coins.
Huo Xi handed him five copper coins. He smiled and shook his head, saying no.
By the time Huo Xi took back the copper plate, the group of people had been surrounded and couldn't get away, and they were reluctant to take the copper plate.
"Sister, it's so fun. You can see far away from it. I want to sit on it. That camel isn't scary at all, it just smells a bit smelly."
Yang and Huo Erhuai laughed when they saw that Pi Xiaozi was brave and not afraid: "It's not your turn even if you want to sit. Look how many people are waiting in line."
Pi Xiaozi turned his head and took a look, reluctant to let go.
"Let's go, let's go look at other rare things. If it's still here tomorrow, we'll ride it again."
"Okay. Come back tomorrow." Pi Xiaozi took three steps and turned around, reluctantly walking out of the circle of people.
When Huo Xi squeezed out of the crowd, he saw that the stalls were quite lively.
On the pier, in addition to camels, there were many rare and exotic animals from outside, and there were also many birds. They were surrounded by some rich men and young men asking for prices, and they were soon bought at high prices. Those people counted the money and laughed till they saw it.
Eye.
The people brought a lot of goods, including jewelry, jade, coral and tortoise shell ornaments, tin, silver, copper and iron. What about leather goods, cowhide, horsehide, deerskin, tiger and leopard skin, shark skin, otter skin... and that jadeite
Bird feathers, peacock tail.
In addition, there are many things related to the national economy and people's livelihood.
Wood and rattan materials, medicines and foods, various textiles, oil red cloth, green cloth, floral cloth, dark patterned cloth, salian cloth, benaju cloth, Jiaozhi silk, Siam red yarn, Western silk, Western white silk
, red and white cotton... many people have never heard of it.
As soon as those medicine stalls put them on the shelves, they were robbed by the drugstore shopkeepers, including Xuejia, Hai'erzhu, Asafoetida, Daphne, Realgar, Weizi and Dafengzi.
There are also those foods, including bird's nests, rice, sea vegetables, deer breasts, sesame seeds, dried shrimps, shark fins, mung beans... there are also many people buying them.
Huo Xi walked around in a circle, trying to find something missing. When she saw anyone who could be called by name, she didn't wait for her to take action. In the medicinal stall, apart from a few pieces left by others, there was only one pot of aloe vera still on the ground.
,Nobody cares.
In the cloth stall, only oily red cloth, burlap, green cloth, and some ordinary items were left there.
There were unfamiliar items at the food stalls, and they were items at the entrance. Everyone was a little cautious, and there were quite a few left. When he saw that there was a sack of gray-brown ball-shaped things left on the ground, Huo Xi saw it and was happy.
Thank you all for your rewards, votes, and all kinds of support. Thank you, I love you~
