Chapter 427: A Gift to King Zhao(2/2)

There's nothing more to say.

Take the people directly and head towards the fleet that has been prepared.

Soon, a fleet headed towards Dongjiao County.

This is Zhao Lang's route. Taking it from the sea directly to Dongjiao County is faster than taking the road.

Otherwise, he would need to cross seven or eight counties across Liaodong, Liaoxi, Youbei, and Pingping before he could reach Dongjiao County.

From Dongjiao County, it is almost a straight line to Wuguan.

And I happened to have discussed the future arrangements with King Qi Tiandu.

Two days later.

Dongjiao County, Tiandu Mansion.

The housekeeper was holding a small jar and said to Tian Du,

"Master, this is the snow salt purchased according to your instructions."

"These snow salts are really expensive, and the quantity is small. It was not easy for me to find the person from the merchant and buy a jar like this."

Qi Wang Tiandu looked at the small jar of salt in front of him and couldn't help but sigh,

"I think our country, Qi, has enjoyed the advantage of fish and salt since ancient times, and its commerce and trade has been developed."

"But I didn't expect that I would have to buy salt from other people."

The housekeeper also nodded and said,

"I heard that these snow salts are already available in Xianyang, and they are not that expensive."

"Just shipping it here is expensive."

Tian Dou nodded calmly and said,

"It doesn't matter, this is the gift I want to give to King Zhao. It's better to be more expensive."

"By the way, next time I see that merchant, I must ask him to come and meet me. How can this kind of business be done without me, Qi Guo?"

The butler returned,

"Yes, Master, the merchant family has already gone in the direction of Chudi."

"It seems that he wants to sell this salt to various places. He has great ambitions."

"And I heard that the person in charge of the Shang family is still a woman named Shang Yan'er."

Tian Dou frowned slightly,

"A woman? As a businessman, it's true that profit is the most important thing, and she doesn't even care about etiquette. How can there be a reason for a woman to take charge?"

"However, the world is about to be in chaos. If her business is not dependent on a country, she will definitely not be able to continue."

Tian Dou still wanted to criticize him, but a servant hurriedly came in and said,

"Master, King Zhao has arrived."
