Chapter 117
After eating the mutton steamed bun, Lao Huang refused to accept Wang Xiang's money, and Wang Xiang was not hypocritical, thinking of going back to the chamber of commerce and telling Lao Huang to set up a shop in Chinatown.

The shops in Chinatown let alone a meal of steamed mutton. I don’t know how many merchants from the Tang Dynasty and the Western Regions these days gave him gold and silver, but he didn’t accept it.

The gifts Wang Xiang chose for Wushun and the others were all small gadgets unique to the Western Regions, which had no practical use, so they were just fresh ideas.

Ju Yiya was much more careful when choosing gifts.

"This is Che Shiguo's incense powder. It smells delicious when you put it on your body. My sister must like it."

A small box of light pink powder, I don’t know what kind of flower petals are used to make the powder, but when you get close, you can smell a faint fragrance, it’s really very light, what makes Wang Xiang speechless is just such a small box The powder actually needs a golden bean.

Seeing that Wang Xiang was puzzled, Ju Yiya explained: "Powders are not easy to make. There is no special method, even if the petals are ground into powder, the fragrance will not be preserved, and not all flowers can be made into powders. "

Ju Yiya carefully put away the first gift she prepared for Wushun. Wang Xiang couldn't bear to tell her that Wushun has more than a dozen branded perfumes with different fragrances, and just a small drop can keep the fragrance lasting for several days.

"Is this kind of incense powder very expensive?" A golden bean can be exchanged for a yak, which means that such a small box of incense powder can be exchanged for a yak.

"Of course, this kind of fragrance powder is very rare. Generally, as long as it appears, it will be bought back by the nobles. Who doesn't want their wife to smell good? We just bought it because of luck. It’s even more expensive.”

Wang Xiang leaned close to Ju Yiya's ear and whispered, "Have you ever used this kind of face powder? I smell that the fragrance on your body is even more fragrant than this face powder."

Ju Yiya blushed and shyly said: "I, I didn't use face powder, the fragrance on my body is...it's already there."

"Oh, so it's natural body fragrance." Wang Xiang couldn't help but sniffed his nose lightly.

"Oh, I won't tell you anymore, I still have to help my sister choose gifts."

Wang Xiang's haha ​​size made everyone feel baffled.

In addition to incense powder, Ju Yiya also picked out many other gifts, most of which are things used by women in the Western Regions to dress up.

Laifu was not idle either, and made a lot of purchases. Now he is the most promising servant of the Hou Mansion. The bonuses given to him by Yipin Winery have made him richer than ordinary small merchants in Chang'an City. Naturally, he will not forget. Bring some gifts back to Dazhu, Erzhu and Xiaoya.

Only the idiot Tie Dan didn't know how to buy some gifts for Aqinu, but Aqinu bought him a lot of things along the way.

Wang Xiang suddenly saw that Haitang who was following behind seemed a little shy, and asked curiously: "Haitang, do you have something to do?"

Haitang hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice embarrassedly: "I want to buy some presents for my father, but I forgot to bring any money when I came to Xizhou."

Of course Wang Xiang is not happy to buy things for Hou Junji, but Haitang is also a filial piety, besides, she is still Tie Dan's apprentice.

"You can buy whatever you want, I have brought the money."

Haitang was overjoyed when she heard the words and said quickly, "I will definitely return it to you when I return to Chang'an."

Wang Xiang smiled and said: "I don't want to pay back anything. You are now Tie Dan's apprentice, and Tie Dan is my bodyguard. Do you need to be so clear? It's not easy to come to the Western Regions once. What do you like?" Feel free to buy anything, it’s a gift from Tie Dan to you as an apprentice.”

Tie Dan understood once in a while, and said in a low voice: "Yes, I haven't given you a gift yet, you can buy whatever you like, I have money here."

Wang Xiang saw what Aqinu whispered in Tie Dan's ear, and he knew it in his heart, but Tie Dan's head couldn't think of saying this.

Haitang has a straightforward temper, and after listening to Tie Dan's words, she smiled and said: "Thank you, master."

Blinking and smiling at Aqinu again: "Thank you, Master."

Every time I heard Haitang calling her teacher Aqinu, I felt very happy, and asked with a smile, "Did you value something?"

Haitang nodded excitedly.

Everyone was curious about what she valued. Haitang was different from ordinary women. Other women liked beautiful clothes and accessories, but she liked to wear a hedgehog and wield swords every day.

Following Haitang to the booth of a merchant from the Western Regions, everyone couldn't help but chuckle.

The dark-skinned Western Region merchant in front of him sells all kinds of weapons, including scimitars, big axes, and many weapons that Wang Xiang can't recognize, all of which are of good quality.

What Haitang valued was a dagger with a cold light. Even someone like Wang Xiang who didn't know much about weapons could tell that this dagger was much better than other weapons on the booth, which surprised him very much. Datang's The forging technology can be said to be far ahead of the countries in the Western Regions, but this short sword is obviously much better than the best Heavy Mo Dao in the Tang Dynasty, and even the kitchen knife he brought from later generations is far inferior.

"How do you sell this sword?"

Businessmen from the Western Regions generally know a little bit of Chinese, but this dark-skinned businessman from the Western Regions just shook his head when he heard Haitang's words.

Haitang didn't know what he meant by shaking his head, and looked puzzled.

Aquinu on the side seemed to be used to this kind of situation and said, "He meant not to sell this sword."

"Why don't you sell him and put him here?"

Aqinu smiled and explained: "He should be a blacksmith from the Uzhana country. The blacksmiths from the Uzhana country are the best in the Western Regions in making weapons, but they don't make the best weapons for sale. money, but in exchange for other things.”

It turned out to be a blacksmith, no wonder it was so dark, Haitang secretly slandered and asked, "Are you going to trade this sword for something?"

Hearing Haitang's question, the blacksmith nodded.

"What do you want in exchange?"

The blacksmith didn't speak, but pulled away the quilt sewn with animal skins behind him, and curled up under it was a ten-year-old boy, who looked somewhat similar to the blacksmith.

The boy's body looked very strong, but at this moment he was unconscious, and there was a wound the size of a bowl on his left leg, which had begun to fester.

Seeing the young man's appearance, Aquinu and Haitang frowned. The blacksmith's intentions were very obvious. He wanted to use the short sword in exchange for healing the young man's wounds, but the wounds on the young man's legs had already begun to fester, and there was no way he could cure them. treat.

However, Aquinu still asked people to go to the Xizhou Palace to invite the priests from the mansion, and priests in most countries in the Western Regions also served as doctors.

The priest shook his head helplessly after looking at the boy's wound. Such a wound was beyond his ability. In ancient times, there was basically no hope of healing the wound.

The priests invited from Xizhou Palace were helpless to the boy's wound. The blacksmith's face became even more gloomy.

 The average order has stabilized to 70, thank you for your support~~
