The Three Kingdoms: The strategist will stop, and Rome will be unified

Chapter 367 Sky Blue Waiting for Misty Rain
Xun Yu nodded: "What Gong Jin said is true, but I have already greeted the nobles in the south of Guishuang, prohibiting anyone from raising soldiers, and set up a mechanism for rewarding reports with heavy money. It should be no problem. Big."

Seeing that he was already prepared, Zhou Yu didn't take it seriously.

"In other words, in the blink of an eye, we have been here for three years!" Zhou Yu suddenly felt emotional.

Xun Yu nodded, and said with emotion: "Yes, it's been three years, and I haven't gone back for three years. I really miss the hometown of Wei!"

Zhou Yu laughed: "You tied yourself too tightly! Now that the Xincheng area is so stable, His Majesty has said that you can go back anytime, and I will show you here. What are you afraid of?"

Xun Yu nodded: "In the past, it wasn't that the crafts that His Majesty asked for were not developed, and I was too embarrassed to go back. Now that the road has been built, I can be regarded as an explanation to Your Majesty! If this is the case, then I will go back !"

Zhou Yu nodded: "Go, I'm here, don't worry!"

The next day Xun Yu set off and left his new city.

After leaving the city, Xun Yu boarded a cargo ship and left Xingang.

The cargo ship was just about to return to Yangzhou, and the supplies on it were full, pushing the ship down a lot, and it was almost at the waterline.

Xun Yu walked around on the boat and saw that there were some merchants on it, all of them were sitting next to their goods, talking loudly.

These people are people who often go in and out of the port, and they are very familiar with Zhou Yu, but they have never seen Xun Yu who has always been sitting in the city and is busy supervising various crafts.

Gou Yu listened to their chat quietly, a satisfied look gradually appeared on his face.

"This time, I brought the best tobacco leaves from Rome. When I went to Dawei, it was a big seller again!"

"Roman tobacco leaves? I heard that taking a puff can make people happy all day! Isn't that thing very expensive?"

"Actually, it's just dry tobacco. It's just that the bright leaf tastes really good. It's a real fragrance. It's not pungent, lung-piercing. It's too fake to have a happy day. However, taking a sip after a meal is really pleasant! The price is one or two. Hundred gold, do you think it is expensive?"

"Robbery! One or two hundred gold! You are trying to get rich."

"Haha, I've gotten rich already! However, I'm not responsible for such a high price. It's just that there are too few tobacco leaves, otherwise I can sell them with small profits! This stuff is very popular in Rome, and I have to sell it for one or two. About ten gold!"

"Speaking of small profits but high sales, the good things from Wei's side are really gratifying! Recently, some new glassware have come out, which are beautiful, and the nobles in Rome like these things!"

"I heard that something called blue-and-white porcelain appeared in the southern part of the Wei Dynasty recently. It is extremely exquisite, and the price is ridiculously expensive. A piece of blue-and-white porcelain costs a thousand gold, ten thousand gold! I wonder if I can try my luck this time, buy some and go back to watch it , or hand it over at a high price!"

"Blue and white porcelain? I have seen it once!" A businessman suddenly showed nostalgia, "That kind of porcelain is indeed the most beautiful thing I have ever seen! The color is round and lustrous, and it is fascinating to look at! Eh? His cup! That cup It's blue and white porcelain!"

The businessman suddenly pointed to the wine glass in Xun Yu's hand and became excited.

Immediately, the others gathered around, watching carefully, and amazed from time to time.

"This texture is indeed a rare treasure, and it is indeed worth a thousand gold!"

"Celadon glaze on a white background, bright in color, never seen such a wonderful treasure!"

Someone even came to ask obsequiously: "This old man, do you sell this cup? Where can I buy this thing?"

Xun Yu smiled: "My cup was issued by the court, but I didn't buy it. As for where to buy it, you can ask Zhou Gongjin when you come back, or go to Yangzhou Mansion to ask Sun Ce when you arrive in Yangzhou." them."

"The governor and General Sun are both very busy people. They are busy supervising the building of ships every day. How can they have time to take care of us!" The merchants immediately sighed.

Xun Yu was also helpless. He was in Xincheng and only paid attention to asphalt, steel, glass and so on. He didn't pay attention to the new blue and white porcelain. Last year, an envoy came and said that the cup was specially given to him by the emperor. At that time, he was just amazed. I didn't think much of it.

Unexpectedly, I only found out today that the sale of this blue and white porcelain is as expensive as a thousand gold!

"Unexpectedly, my drinking cup is so valuable! It turns out that I have been living the life of a rich man!"

Xun Yu couldn't help laughing helplessly.

However, since it can make money so much, why does the court keep this thing so mysterious?

It's strange that the merchants don't know where they buy their goods.

Xun Yu really couldn't understand why His Majesty would do this. He carefully looked at the blue and white porcelain in his hand, and it was indeed different from other porcelain.

On weekdays, Xun Yu hadn't paid special attention to it. Today, after being reminded by these businessmen, he took a closer look at the blue and white porcelain in his hand, and then at the others.

Only then did I realize that it turned out that the blue and white porcelain was worth thousands of dollars, not for nothing.Its texture is delicate and crystal clear, and every stroke on it seems to come from the hands of a master.

It is definitely not something that ordinary painters can draw. The lines are agile and smooth without muddling, and they are done in one go, and the whole spirit is very cohesive.

Coupled with this crystal clear white background, it can be said to complement each other, no wonder it is sold at such an expensive price, he is even more incomprehensible at this time, there is such a good thing.

So why not spread it to other places?Wouldn't that strengthen Wei's national prestige even more?But the thought only existed for a moment.

Xun Yu understood that His Majesty is very business minded, every decision he makes seems unusual, sometimes even contrary to common sense, but every time it has a surprising effect.

And the reason why His Majesty the blue and white porcelain chose this way is probably because he wants to be a rare commodity to live in.The rarer the treasure, the rarer the quantity and the higher the quality must be.

Only in this way can it be kept in a highly sought after position, if its quantity is too much, then its degree of cherishment will decline.

And once there are more and more, it is inevitable that there will be uneven levels of quality. In that case, this eternal treasure may become a public commodity.

Then he would not be able to produce such a high value. Thinking of this, Xun Yu felt relieved.

"My lord? My lord, are you listening? Can you part with this treasure in your hand? The price can be paid by you."

"Haha, I only have this treasure as a reward from the imperial court. How dare I sell it at will? Besides, even if I am willing to sell it, would you dare to buy it?"

The businessman originally wanted to see if he could buy this piece of blue and white porcelain, but when Xun Yu said that it was a gift from the court, the businessman still kept his luck.

He felt that Xun Yu was lying to him, but at this time Xun Yu confirmed the matter with him again, so the businessman didn't dare to say anything more.

After all, these things were indeed rewarded by the court, and Xun Yu would definitely not dare to sell them. No matter how much money the merchant gave, they would never be able to sell them.
