Lord: Start with a copy of Water Margin

After sending this guest away, Ji Xuan said: "Husband, I use the Mongolian books in the shop to promote the utensils. It seems that I don't have to worry about selling them. However, the types of utensils are a little small."

Zhao Zhen said: "I once read "Kaopan Yushi", which records forty-five kinds of study utensils. Such as stone carvings such as pen grids, inkstones, pen beds, pen screens, seals, cutters, and scissors. When copper and iron utensils, book boxes and other wooden products can be made in batches, there is nothing we can do about porcelain and jade."

Ji Xuan said: "These are enough. Not everyone needs it. Most people can only get an inkstone and a pen holder."

Zhao Zhen nodded.

I don’t know if it was the sign hanging out that had an effect. After a while, more and more people came into the store to choose books, and some people also chose toys.

Zhao Zhen saw that although the two waiters were busy, they were able to cope with it, and said to Ji Xuan: "Madam, I haven't been to the market for a long time. I just happened to go out for a stroll today."

Ji Xuan said: "Husband, I have done the counting here, and I will accompany you." As she said that, Ji Xuan closed the account book in her hand.

The two of them left the bookstore and walked around the market aimlessly.

Until noon time, he didn't see anything worth selling. Zhao Zhen was about to go back with Ji Xuan when he saw many people surrounding the stall in front of him, making a lot of noise.

Zhao Zhen went up to take a look and saw more than a dozen large and small bamboo tubes on the stall, and a large wooden box behind it. The most eye-catching thing is the more than 20 large and small hives on the stall.

It is these hives that attract many people to watch. Two young men dressed as hunters were greeting everyone.

"Come and see the newly picked honey and hives."

In just a moment, two people agreed on the price and bought two bamboo tubes of honey. When other people saw it, they quickly came forward to negotiate the price.

Ji Xuan said: "Our family is not short of honey, what are you looking at?"

Zhao Zhen pointed to several hives on the stall and said, "This doesn't look like a bee hive."

After speaking, he said to the two people setting up the stall: "Shopkeeper, how do you sell this hive?"

"Which one?"

Zhao Zhen pointed with his hand: "They all need it."

The two people setting up the stall were overjoyed. The taller one said: "There are twenty-five of these hives, large and small. The asking price is thirty guan."

"What kind of bees are they?"

"There are bumblebees, bumblebees, and Osmia wasps. These three are golden-ringed hornets. In the box are captured adults of golden-ringed hornets, which are best soaked in wine. Do you want it, a high official?"

Zhao Zhen nodded and said, "Is there a queen bee in this nest of golden-ringed hornet bees?"

"Yes, there are two more honeycombs in this box. This box of golden-ringed hornets costs 20 pieces."

Zhao Zhen said: "I want 50 strings, but I need you two to deliver them to my house."

The man glanced awkwardly at the bargaining customers and said to Zhao Zhen: "Master, this honey hasn't been sold out yet, but I have to wait a moment."

Zhao Zhen said: "How much does this honey cost?"

"It's in a bamboo tube. I haven't weighed it yet. I estimate it weighs thirty kilograms. It only costs one hundred and fifty kilograms."

Zhao Zhen said: "If no one wants it, I will take it too."

The tall hunter was overjoyed when he heard this and said to the other hunter: "Taozi, we will close the stall and stop selling it. All the big customers have taken care of it."

After hearing this, the few people who were bargaining took the bamboo tubes in their hands, stuffed the money into the short Orion's hand, stood up and left.

When the others saw it, they cursed in a low voice and dispersed.

The tall Orion said to Zhao Zhen: "Master, I only have 120 sticks of honey left."

Seeing Zhao Zhen nodding, the two quickly packed up the honey, beehives, etc., made two loads, and followed Zhao Zhen back to Nanshi's house.

Along the way, Zhao Zhen talked to the two of them and learned through chatting that they both worked in the Orion profession. The tall one was named Mou Kaichuan and the short one was named Xie Tao. The two of them hunted together in the mountains every day. They had already spotted these hives. As autumn entered, the hives contained the most honey.

When he arrived at Zhao Zhen's residence, Zhao Zhen paid the bill and said to the two of them: "Brothers, I also buy high-level spiritual materials in this shop. If you find them in the mountains and forests, just bring them over and save you two." Setting up a stall takes time.”

Mou Kaichuan asked: "What are the officials buying here?"

Zhao Zhen said: "Spiritual materials, spiritual plants, and spiritual seeds, as long as they are of advanced level, I want them here. If you have rare mountain delicacies and game, you can also send them. It won't cost you two money. There are also many specialties in the shop. Spiritual items for sale.”

Mou Kaichuan said to Xie Tao: "Taozi?"

Xie Tao hesitated for a moment and said: "The big official and the little guy set up a net on the mountain and captured a black baby. Do you want the big official?"

Zhao Zhen was surprised when he heard this, and asked without showing it on his face: "What's the price?"

"Five thousand strings."

After hearing this, Zhao Zhen said: "It's too expensive. This black pheasant is just a blessing. Some time ago, someone in Qi State captured a white pheasant and presented it to the royal family. The reward was only 3,000 guan."

"If you two are sincere in selling, I will offer you 2,000 yuan."

After hearing this, Xie Tao shook his head and said: "This is too little. Although the black pheasant is auspicious, it is not auspicious. 2000 strings are too few."

Mou Kaichuan also said: "Sir, 2000 strings are indeed too little. Please add more."

Zhao Zhen said: "You name a price. If you are not sincere, forget it. This is said to be auspicious, but no one knows what it is like. The Qi Kingdom has white pheasants, but now it is facing the invasion of fog. I am only interested in Heizhi. I haven’t seen it before, just to gain some experience.”

The two discussed it, and Mou Kaichuan said: "Master, this black pheasant is auspicious after all, 2000 strings, plus two more spiritual objects that can strengthen my body."

Zhao Zhen pretended to hesitate, frowning and said: "You two bring the black pheasant. If it is intact, I will pay 2,000 strings plus two four-tailed carps to enhance the body. If the black pheasant is damaged, the price will be additional." How about it?”

Xie Tao nodded and said: "It's settled. The two of us will go get the black pheasant right now."

With that said, he took Mou Kaichuan and left.

After the two left, Ji Qingwan, who had never spoken a word, said: "Husband, are these two really black pheasants?"

Zhao Zhen said: "The two of them said it themselves, it is the best if they can exist. I have never seen them before."

"If it's really a fool's errand, this deal can be considered a profit." Ji Qingwan said.

Zhao Zhen said: "Madam, have you seen a black pheasant?"

Ji Qingwan shook her head and said: "I have never seen it before, but I have seen it in a book. This kind of auspiciousness must have something extraordinary. It may be a good harvest, a treasure, or a disaster. The worst is to eat it. It can help people strengthen their health, cure diseases and prolong their lives.”

"It's just that auspiciousness is rare. Therefore, few people know the uses of different auspiciousness. Everyone keeps it secret and only promotes its auspicious attributes. People who don't know most of the auspiciousness will be exchanged for money."

Ji Xuan asked: "How effective is Black Pheasant?"

Ji Qingwan said: "How do I know? Maybe Brother Gaohu knows."

Zhao Zhen said: "We will wait until these two people are delivered."
