Later, Liu Tong and others saw kangaroos, thylacines, sloths from Australia, birds of paradise from Sumatra, etc. In short, they saw a lot of magical things, and then they didn't spend a penny and didn't buy anything at all.
idea.
"I didn't expect that there are so many magical things in the world." Liu Tong walked out with the snacks in his hands. The snacks were prepared in advance by the Wu family shopkeeper after he learned his identity, and Liu Tong didn't spend a penny.
, when eating these things, there is no mercy at all.
"I'm happy. I saw a lot of strange things. I wonder if they are edible." Si Niang also carried the snacks and walked out. This person would not have such thoughts that he shouldn't eat them.
"The Birds of Paradise are pretty good. If we get another batch later, I'll send thirty of them to Chang'an." Chen Xi took out a gold-threaded money ticket and handed it to the shopkeeper of the Wu family.
Even if Chen Xi doesn't give you money, the other party will give it to you, and he will be happy to give it to you, but you still don't do this kind of thing, after all, there is really no need to do it.
"The money you gave me is a bit too much." The shopkeeper of the Wu family was a little panicked.
"It's okay, I know the price of everything." Chen Xi said to the other party with a smile, "The extra money will be regarded as the previous information fee."
The shopkeeper of the Wu family was a little panicked. He looked at Wu Yuan with his peripheral vision. Wu Yuan was unmoved. The shopkeeper had no choice but to hand over the money. He hurriedly said that he would definitely send thirty of the most beautiful birds of paradise to Chen Xi. Please
Chen Hou will wait for a while.
Zhen Mi was thoughtful. She was not stupid. She originally thought that the Wu family was just like hers, but now the power displayed by the Wu family far exceeded Zhen Mi's knowledge. If this continues, what Chen Xi thought at the beginning would
What you say will become reality sooner or later.
After that, Chen Xi took Zhen Mi and others around Jiangling, spending a lot of money in the process. Regarding these things, Chen Xi's usual attitude is to lose money and avoid disasters. Of course, the most important thing is that these people buy things.
It doesn't matter whether it's expensive or not, it's more about seeing the right thing.
So along the way, Chen Xi couldn't spend too much money.
"There are quite a lot of rare things in Jiangling, a lot of treasures from the West." Liu Tong said as he reached out and took a very bright-looking crown from the hand of the shop owner opposite, which weighed about two kilograms.
These days, this is not popular in the Han Dynasty. A crown is a crown and has nothing to do with a crown. However, in Europe, it is also not popular in Rome. After all, the Roman emperor is still the first citizen these days. He must first stand from the perspective of a citizen.
, can’t be too high-profile.
In addition, the crown of God does not lie in splendor, but in territory and imperial power.
Therefore, whether you are strong or not depends not on how well the crown is made, but on your own strength. Therefore, the latter kind of golden crown is not popular these days.
Therefore, Chen Xi was very curious about the origin of this crown. It seemed to be quite valuable, at least it was very attractive to a guy like Liu Tong who likes sparkling treasures.
"This crown is the crown of the Queen of Babylon that we received when we were doing business with the Jews." The owner of the shop was very happy when he saw that someone was interested in this thing. When he saw that this thing was taken back from the hands of the Jews, he was very happy.
The expression of being hit on the hand.
"The Queen of Babylon? What is that?" Liu Tong said with a strange look on his face.
The shop owner hurriedly told Liu Tong the story he heard from the Jews. Chen Xi was stunned for a moment as he wondered how many queens' experiences this story combined.
"Oh, there is actually a floating city." Liu Tong looked at Chen Xi and said with a smile.
"Sorry, I definitely can't do it these days." Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said.
"Okay, okay, it's just a joke. I'm not that kind of cruel person." Liu Tong said with a smile, "Shopkeeper, give me a real price for this thing. I think it's quite beautiful, and the gems are all real."
goods."
"I don't sell fakes here. This was collected by one of our Jews. It's real, real gold, real gems. It's absolutely real in every aspect." The boss said very dissatisfied, but after hearing this,
When Liu Tong wanted it, his expression softened a lot, "If you want it, I'll give you the change, 150,000 yuan."
Liu Tong stared at the crown jewels for a long time, then nodded and directly gave the money, without even bothering to bargain, and left with the crown.
"Damn it, I thought you were going to bargain." Chen Xi looked at Liu Tong strangely.
Of these four guys, except for Si Niang, who didn't sell anything at all and was just eating, the other three had to bargain even if they bought a pearl flower.
"No need to bargain, this thing is real." Liu Tong tipped the crown in his hand and put it directly on his head.
"Huh? How are you sure? It's hard to say for this kind of thing." Chen Xi looked at Liu Tong strangely and asked.
"The Roman envoys give me some strange gifts every year, saying they are antiques and treasures. I have seen the same things in them." Liu Tong said proudly, "Every aspect of the touch is the same as the Roman envoys last year.
There is absolutely no difference between the one given to me."
Chen Xi raised his eyebrows after hearing this. If he believed Liu Tong's judgment before, now Chen Xi can say with conscience that Liu Tong was definitely deceived.
"Tongtong, I saw that after you bought this, the other party took out an identical crown and put it on it." Si Niang, who was biting the meat bun, suddenly said, giving Liu Tong a huge backstab.
"What?" Liu Tong was really confused at this moment. What are you talking about? It feels exactly the same as what the Romans gave me in every aspect. How could it be fake?
"Because it is exactly the same as the one the Romans gave you, it is fake, because the one the Romans gave you must be authentic, and there is no need to make two of these crowns." Chen Xi held his forehead, this silly boy,
There is no doubt that I was deceived.
"I also think you have been deceived. Because it is exactly the same as the original, it is fake. There cannot be two gifts given to you by the Roman envoy. The Romans would not mess around with this kind of thing.
"Wu Yuan said quietly.
Liu Tong was silent after hearing this, then suddenly turned around and ran back aggressively to find trouble for the other party, but was blocked by Zhen Mi.
"Okay, don't go. The other party will also earn some production costs." Zhen Mi stopped Liu Tong with a smile, "Do you still remember what the store said?"
Liu Tong was stunned when he heard this, then recalled it, and his face became darker. Chen Xi looked at Liu Tong with a smile, "What people said is real gold and real gems. It is absolutely true in all aspects, but they did not say that this is real gold and real gems."
Antique, he just told you a story."
"Although it is a bit expensive to buy this for 150,000 yuan, since you have the idea of picking up leaks, you have to be prepared to be ripped off. What they are selling are not antiques, just gold jewelry and gems." Wu Yuanla
He held Liu Tong's hand and said with a smile.
"But this price is higher than the so-called industry average." Liu Tong said unconvinced.
"But this is not a scam. The price is relatively high, and you took the initiative to buy it." Chen Xi said with a smile, "So don't argue. If you want to pick up the slack, be prepared to be tricked."
"Hoo ho ho, I'm so angry." Liu Tong said angrily.
"I'll teach you a way." Chen Xi stood aside with his arms folded and looked at Liu Tong with a smile.
"Say." Liu Tong looked at Chen Xi angrily, "I've been tricked and you won't help me."
"It doesn't matter whether it's real or fake. If you put this thing on your head, it's real." Chen Xi looked at Liu Tong with half-squinted eyes and said. Liu Tong was stunned when he heard this, and his original anger dissipated instantly.
"Some things should not be pursued because of your status, and some things will have different results depending on your status. This seal is Chenhou's seal, but its value is not as good as the seal of Zhuye Xianghou. I think you understand what I am talking about.
"Okay." Chen Xi said gently.
Liu Tong snorted and put the crown directly on his head.
True or false is not important to them. As long as Liu Tong thinks it is the crown of the Queen of Babylon, then yes, at least millions or tens of millions of people will admit this fact.
of.
Truth is not important sometimes, and facts are not the same as truth.
"Let's go, let's go back to the inn. You don't need to stay in Jiangling for a long time." Chen Xi said with a smile. Chen Xi was the most relaxed along the way, when he arrived at Jiangling, because there would be no one here.
Any problem, as for other places, Chen Xi will inevitably need to check carefully.
However, precisely because there is no need for verification, Chen Xi only needs to know some things he wants to know, and he will leave here and go to Yuzhou from Fanxiang.
Chen Xi didn't plan to go to Yingchuan. Although there was still his family's ancestral home there, there were too many people to meet there, and they were all elders, so it was difficult to refuse, so he decided to go directly
Go to Runan and see what is going on in the Yuan family.
"Chen Hou, what do you think after arriving in Jiangling?" Wu Yuan suddenly stopped and looked sideways at Chen Xi and asked.
"It seems that your original proposal is already necessary to be implemented." Chen Xi said with a smile, but Wu Yuan couldn't show her excitement, so Chen Xi continued, "It's just that we can't accept it directly at the moment.
, more detailed research and more detailed relevant trade data are needed."
"Okay." Wu Yuan said helplessly, "But this is none of my business anymore. I'll send people from the Wu family to handle it when the time comes. Who told me that my surname is Liu now?"
Chen Xi made a haha. This kind of thing was just said and listened to. In a short time, Wu Yuan controlled more than half of the Wu family's business dealings in the Central Plains. There will definitely be no change in the situation.
"Zichuan." When crossing the intersection, Liu Bei and Xu Chu smiled and waved to Chen Xi. It could be seen that Liu Bei was very satisfied with Jiang Ling, and he was equally satisfied with Liao Li. However, this person could only die in office.
