The salted fish couple is fleeing famine

After the exchange of credentials, King Atahuaba held a grand banquet in the castle to entertain Daxia's envoy.

The main members of the royal family of the Inca Empire, priests, including queens and concubines all attended the banquet.

Heiwa and the others were shocked by King Atahaba's golden walls before, and after seeing the members of the royal family of the Inca Empire, they were even more blinded by their clothes.

The nobles wore ornaments all over their bodies, made of a large number of gold pieces and precious stones, such as headdresses, earrings, bracelets, etc.

And both men and women will wear necklaces, which are made of gold and ores, such as: emerald, turquoise, sodalite, amazonite, quartz, amethyst, amber, etc., made of beads connected in series.

What the people of Bactria didn't know was that after seeing King Atahuaba's screen and other gifts, the members of the royal family had preconceived ideas about the wealth of Bactria.She put all her most expensive accessories on her body, and didn't want to lose her momentum.

"Local tyrants, local tyrants!" Yuan Wenwu and Qin Ke muttered. Compared with the nobles of the Inca Empire, the nobles of Daxia could be called simple. They were arranged to sit on a carpet made of alpaca wool.

At the beginning of the banquet, there was a round of pan flute and drum ensemble performances by more than [-] people, and the pan flute blew amidst the mysterious sound of drums.

The sound seems to come from ancient times, with its own mysterious purification energy, which makes people peaceful and tranquil, just like sleeping soundly in the arms of a mother.

It was so obviously different from the sounds made by Daxia's various musical instruments. After the song was over, the 20 people didn't recover for a long time and were still intoxicated by it.

King Atahuaba was very satisfied with the performance of the guests. As soon as they played the music of the Incas, the guests were stunned.

The next step is to drink and eat meat. King Atahuaba used gold beakers with flat bottoms and flared mouths for the distinguished guests.The beakers are bigger than their fists and are decorated with clam-like sea life around the cups.

Corn wine is the only alcoholic drink of the Incas. It tastes mellow and sweet.

Everyone drank three whole glasses of corn wine, except for the first sip, the rest of the corn wine was swallowed by Hei Wa into the black soil of the space.

Yuan Wenjie and Yuan Wenwu hadn't had a drink yet, and their faces were blushing after one drink, while Qin Ke seemed fine after three drinks.The rest of the teenagers have experienced such occasions, and their backs are still straight.

Drank wine, ate meat, and have been friends ever since!The gift that King Atahaba gave to his friend, the King of Bactria, also has the characteristics of the Inca Empire:

Two sets of drinking vessels in the shape of alpacas, made of pure gold and pure silver respectively;
A box of emeralds, garnets, aquamarines, chrysoberyls and other gemstones;
There are several exquisite fabrics woven from the down of vicuna, in which not only small gold and silver beads are woven, but also colorful feathers.

It may be that King Atahuaba felt that these fabrics could represent the highest weaving craftsmanship of the Inca Empire, which was a response to the embroidery of the Bactria court.

With the formal establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries, the ship merchants who were waiting hopelessly on the sea-going ships at the pier were also notified to bring their goods to Manchester City, and the first trade between the two countries opened.

There were no professional merchants in the Inca Empire. All their goods were traded by the great prince of the Inca Empire, using gold, silver, painted pottery, gems, etc.

Uncle Zhongqin directly sold two-thirds of the official goods of the Great Xia Dynasty.Whether it is pastel ware, blue and white porcelain or court embroidery, the great prince of the Inca Empire was delighted from ear to ear.

The double-sided embroidered civet fan, the fat baby holding a koi purse, and the screen with various flowers and birds made the queen and the concubines almost fight.

King Atahuaba has hundreds of queens and concubines, as well as dozens of princes and princesses, which is really not enough.

The taste of tea is also highly praised, and the Incas usually used a kind of dried leaves as their main drink.This is a medicinal drink developed by their witch doctor, and its bitter taste is like Coptis chinensis.

In addition to medicinal drinks, they also have a drink that can relieve fatigue after work, cocoa.

The cocoa fruit is ground into powder and brewed for drinking. Because its taste is also bitter, the Incas added chili powder to it, which is spicy and bitter to refresh and relieve fatigue.

The tea soup of green tea and fermented tea has an obvious aftertaste, especially when drinking tea with the blue and white porcelain teacup from the Great Xia Dynasty, the ladies feel very pleasant.

After the Big Three discussed, most of the official goods they brought were replaced with gold, and a small part was replaced with gems.

When Uncle Zhongqin proposed that he wanted to exchange their corn, potatoes and other food, the prince of the empire directly waved his hand to show their friendship as a gift.As long as their ships are willing to load, they can load as much as they want!

Uncle Zhongqin: Then I really won’t be polite!
Yuan Wenjie and his eight translators made a lot of money. No transaction could be done without a translator.

It's still a young man with a flexible mind. Looking at these eight teenagers, the ship merchants regretted it very much. Who doesn't have many bastards?This needs to be brought out, but it can come in handy.

The ship merchants are different from the official goods of the imperial court. They mainly sell silk fabrics, white porcelain, tea, and peppercorns.

Zanthoxylum bungeanum, because Shangguan's imperial physician was on the island, and the god of deworming indigenous children, the seller asked Qin Ke and his translators to directly promote Zanthoxylum bungeanum as a magic medicine.

The eldest prince of the empire was dubious. What these distinguished guests said was too mysterious. Is it because of bugs that children have stomach pains?However, he was quite willing to cooperate, and ordered to go on, and within a quarter of an hour, more than a dozen Inca civilian children were found to test the medicine.

The familiar formula, familiar operation, and familiar nausea happened again, and finally alarmed the chief witch doctor of the Inca Empire.

The witch doctor picked up the pepper, smelled and chewed it, and witnessed that the child who drank the pepper soup pulled out roundworms.With the approval of the witch doctor, the prince of the empire immediately said that they wanted as much pepper as they wanted.

Except for pepper, the rest of the commodities were also well received, and the shippers were soft on gold and silver.Compared with the Great Xia Dynasty, the value of these commodities has increased by more than a hundred times.

The one who brought the peppercorns is the Great Xia Clan. Once their whole cargo ship of peppercorns is sold, there is no businessman who is not envious and jealous. There is no harm if there is no comparison!

The gold and silver they got in exchange could fit half a boat!In Sichuan, the origin of peppercorns, the best dried peppercorns are only [-] Wen a catty.

The Daxia clan couldn't believe it until they moved the gold and silver to the ship.The Great Xia clan are poor, they are not as good as many nobles, and it is also some third-rate businessmen who can get them dry stocks.

The dried Zanthoxylum bungeanum that they brought this time is the business they own a stake in. They secretly tossed the spicy hot pot base in the capital, but failed to toss it successfully. The remaining stock.

Before coming here, they also thought that there are so many spices overseas that they might not be able to sell them. How did they know that the medicinal properties of Chinese prickly ash are better?If they can return to Beijing smoothly this trip, their clans will be shaking!
The little princes and princesses of the royal family read with great interest and played with comic strips and gorgeous jigsaw puzzles.

After Yuan Wenjie and the three of them discussed, they used half of the inventory and replaced it with various gemstones from the Inca Empire. Gold and silver mainly occupied space, and there were no gemstones that were easy to carry.

The gems exchanged for commodities, and the gold and gems earned from translation were all handed over to their father to help them keep them.The emerald flowers in the space are drooling, no woman can refuse these gems!
The Incas did not have paper, and their cultural heritage was passed on by word of mouth and knotted on ropes. The comic strips brought more than just a reading material to the little princes.

"Paper? Daxia characters?" King Atahuaba stroked the cover of the comic book and summoned the most intelligent priests in the empire.Holding the comic strips together, they studied for several days but failed to find out what these papers were made of.

Not to mention the printing process on the paper, how do these people make the picture album exactly the same?
No one who can be a king is a fool. King Atahuaba immediately realized that this paper from Bactria could bring a leap of inheritance to the Inca Empire.After discussing with the priest for a long time, the eldest prince found Daxia as an envoy.

"Want to buy more paper? Want to learn how to make paper?" Hearing Qin Ke's translation, Huang Shangshu and others did not expect that the small business of the teenagers would bring them great business opportunities.

How many scholars, especially those who have read about them, have not made it themselves, with the leisure and ease of the Four Treasures of the Study?
Among this group of people, Mr. Yan from a poor family, when he was young, made all the brushes and paper at home by himself, and his skills were very good.Master Yan was stunned. He could still use the techniques he had to learn to save money to earn gold overseas? !
"Agreed, the country that doesn't know how to make paper is probably the Inca Empire. If it doesn't involve weapon making, let's change it boldly!"

"I have no objection either, this stuff doesn't affect anything." The Big Three voted unanimously.

The eldest prince was overjoyed that he could switch to such advanced civilization technology so smoothly. He looked at Qin Ke and Yuan Wenwu, the translators, with very warm eyes.

In front of his father, he also made a contribution. Before leaving, he gave one of the two translators an emerald gem the size of a pigeon egg.

"Master Yan, the Inca Empire is a country of local tyrants, and the rewards are such big gems. This thing can be sold for tens of thousands of taels in Daxia. You have to teach these people, tsk tsk!"

Huang Shangshu pulled Master Yan excitedly, ignoring Gao Huaiyu who spoke sourly, and the two discussed with great interest the materials and tools needed to make paper.

The papermaking process is not particularly complicated. There are hundreds of papermaking workshops in Daxia, and they are nothing more than making papermaking raw materials, such as: hemp, rattan, bamboo, and bark, after soaking and retting. Soaking in gray water-pounding-washing-grooving-papermaking-drying paper-removing paper eight processes are completed.

What raw materials can be found by the Inca Empire, they need to go up the mountain to find them.
