The outlying island is an important foreign trade port for Inazuma. Surrounding the big maple tree on the island, merchants from various countries who trade with each other set up shops here, selling exotic goods and specialties from different regions of Teyvat. The scene is very lively.
Under Kanding's rule, the entire island was built into a huge trading market and a distribution center for all kinds of rare items.
This island is the most prosperous, prosperous and luxurious port in Inazuma, and it is the commercial center of Inazuma.
Therefore, there are countless caravans traveling here, and countless ships coming and going.
Yunmo and Youzai were walking on the streets of the outlying island. There were an endless stream of vendors on the streets, and the crowds were surging. People were coming and going, the flow was endless, and the crowds were like a sea.
Yunmo and Youla had faint smiles on their faces. The place was filled with people from all over the world, and voices in various languages kept ringing in their ears.
Although the outlying islands are so prosperous now, there was actually a desolate scene here. Under the customs ban enforced by Kansei, foreign merchant ships cannot enter the port, and domestic merchant ships cannot leave Inazuma Roku Islands.
For a period of time, there was almost no supply of goods here, and some merchants were even driven out of the island.
All these merchant ships on the outlying islands were expelled, and huge handling fees were charged if they wanted to berth on the shore.
The outlying islands fell into complete chaos for a period of time. Those merchants who were expelled but did not leave were beaten by the National Supervision Department. There were no merchants here, and there were no merchant ships anymore. All there was was the haze of the Reign of Terror.
If Yunmo hadn't stood up in time, Dao's wife would have been forced to lock down the country due to the freight ban. In that case, Dao's wife would have fallen into the disaster of civil war.
"Yun Mo, look, does this look good?" Youla saw a white jade hairpin on a stall on one side. Her eyes lit up and she quickly walked to Yun Mo, picked up the white jade hairpin and handed it to her.
Gave it to Yunmo.
Yun Mo took the hairpin. Under the sunlight, the white jade hairpin exuded a bright white light. The seemingly simple carving process contained a hint of simplicity.
Yun Mo looked at the hairpin carefully. The carving of the hairpin was very clever. The hollow pattern glowed elegantly in the sun. Several small plum blossoms were carved on the tail of the hairpin. The plum blossoms were lifelike, as if they were alive. The tops of the plum blossoms were carved.
With a small ruby.
This is a hairpin made of white jade. Ruby is inlaid in the white jade. It looks very exquisite.
"How is it? It's beautiful, isn't it? I fell in love with it at first sight." You'er winked at Yun Mo.
"Very beautiful!" Yun Mo nodded approvingly. He handed the silver hairpin in his hand to the stall owner and said, "How many molas do you have, boss?"
"Ten thousand Mora coins." The old boss stretched out a finger.
"It's so expensive." Yun Mo raised his eyebrows.
"This is high-end goods, and the material is very good. It is carved from jade produced in Liyue, and the price is not expensive." The boss explained with a smile, looking like he knew how to do business.
"Even the jade produced in Liyue can't be sold at this price. The boss thinks I don't know how to do it. I also have a few friends who are wealthy businessmen in Liyue." Yun Mo curled his lips, pulled up a tiger skin as a banner, and blew it before the boss
The cow got up.
Yora remained silent. She knew that she was clumsy and would not be able to deal with these smart and capable businessmen. After all, when dealing with her, Yora usually used a big sword to express her wishes.
"It would definitely not be so expensive in normal times, but isn't this a special period?"
"Is the celebration the time for you to make money? Didn't Kanding Fengxing set a minimum price for you?"
"No, no." When the boss heard that Yunmo had moved Kanding Fengxing out, he strongly denied it at first, but suddenly he changed his mind and said, "Sir, your wealthy businessman friend didn't tell you that soon most of the ore will be imported into the country.
Is it on the embargo list? Things made of Liyue jade are now sold for less, so they are naturally more expensive."
"What did you say?" Yun Mo was shocked, was Tong Shenjie causing trouble again when he was away?
The boss lowered his voice and said to Yun Mo: "I also heard some rumors that the top management of the shogunate decided to include crystallized bone marrow on the embargo list, and there was a series of pre-selected lists. Therefore, many merchants on the market raised their prices.
"
Hearing this, Yun Mo fell into deep thought, because Yun Mo did not get relevant and precise information to prove the existence of this list.
But with Tong Shenjie's personality, it's not surprising that he would do something like this. It's just that he may be a little too brave, and he still has the leverage in his own hands.
Seeing the handsome man in well-dressed clothes in front of him meditating hard for a mere 10,000 molas, the boss looked at Yun Mo with some disdain.
He felt that Yun Mo must be showing off, there was no aura of wealth about him at all, and he didn't look like a rich man.
He has seen many people like this.
He turned his attention to Yula aside, because Yula's movements revealed an elegant temperament, even though she only wore an ordinary set of clothes.
But she still couldn't hide her noble and elegant temperament. She was like a white swan, making people unable to look away.
At first glance, it seems that he was born into an old aristocrat, so he must be a rich man.
Just when the boss was about to open his mouth to deceive Youla, Yunmo suddenly threw out 10,000 molas and said, "Give you the money and give me the hairpin."
The boss was stunned for a moment when he saw Yun Mo's actions. He didn't expect Yun Mo to be so generous all of a sudden.
The boss' originally contemptuous face suddenly burst into smiles. He quickly reached out and handed the silver hairpin to Yun Mo with both hands, and said with a smile: "This hairpin belongs to you, please keep it."
"Buy it? So expensive?" Yola was a little surprised. After all, ten thousand molas is not a small amount.
Yun Mo smiled, put the hairpin in Youla's hair and said, "As long as you like it, money doesn't matter."
"It's so beautiful." Yun Mo admired sincerely.
"Thank you for the compliment."
Youla glanced at the silver hairpin on her head, her eyes showing a hint of splendor, and the corners of her mouth curved into a sweet arc, revealing two cute little tiger teeth.
Youla's smile was as bright as a flower, like a spring breeze, which made Yunmo's heart beat with excitement.
"Did something happen to Rice Wife again?" Yula asked. Although both of their voices were very low, they couldn't escape the ears of Wave Rider Yula.
"It's okay. It's just businessmen raising prices, it's a common thing." Yun Mo explained nonchalantly on the surface.
In fact, Yunmo himself didn't know for sure, but he didn't want Youra to get involved in this mess before leaving.
"Yes." Yura responded softly and said nothing more.
