Chapter 1294 Snow worms
The city of Wudi is still very lively, and caravans entering and leaving are constantly coming in and out of the day and night.
Unlike other major ports, although the city of Wudian is huge, there is almost no ordinary daily output inside. Such as grain, meat, vegetables, fruits, cloth, and clothing, etc., all the things like Wudian are transported in outside.
The monks actually consume no less of various resources than ordinary people, and even their requirements for "quality" are generally higher than that of ordinary people due to various reasons.
Wuliangye is the most popular consumable in Wudicheng City. The price is nearly twice as high as the normal price outside, but the supply is still in short supply. Sometimes you can even hear some stupid comments holding spirit stones and wanting to buy Wuliangye.
Of course, if you believe in the matter of changing spirit stones to wine, you will be fooled. The ones who are cheated on you are like you who are brainless.
Wuliangye is in short supply, so other second-class alcoholics with the "savory wine" signs are coming to fill the market where they can't afford to seek second-rate markets. Nearly 20% of the goods in the fleet entering the city every day are wine.
The consumption of monks is only part of the city of Wushu. Although ordinary people are all setting the foundation for monks in the city, they also need to rely on external supplies to live. Food, clothing, and food are inevitable.
Therefore, in such a deformed environment, the most popular industry is about to emerge. Yes, it is a carriage.
The carriages and horses are not only a bridge connecting the city of Wude and the outside world, but also deeply rooted in all aspects of the city of Wude. Even the three leaders who control the city of Wude cannot avoid them.
The methods of monks like alchemy and weapon refining are different. The methods of carriage and horse racing seem simple but are actually very profound, and require a lot of time and experience to explore and lay the groundwork. Therefore, even though carriage and horse racing is the most prosperous business in the Wudie City, this business has always been controlled by several carriage and horse racing companies in the Jingjiu Dynasty, and has not been swallowed by the various sects of the Wudie City.
It’s not that I don’t want to, but that compared with other businesses, the business of carriages is too troublesome and cumbersome, and no one takes it.
But the big merchants who have traveled all over the world are happy with the business of the Wude City. They are very straightforward to do business with monks and don’t care much about money. As long as the goods are good and the goods come quickly and steadily, they basically don’t have to worry about other things, which is much easier than doing business in other places.
However, in the Wushen City, the carriage and horse carriage can not gain a foothold by just entering and leaving goods. The relationships in all aspects must be handled well. Especially the managers and deacons of the Foreign Affairs Hall of the Three Principals must be managed from time to time, otherwise many things will not be so convenient.
Therefore, the carriages and horses doing business in Wushen City have their own "deputy heads". These deputy heads do not command the convoy, are not responsible for the internal management of the convoy, and do not even need to run around with the convoy. They just need to stay in Wushen City to maintain the relationship between the local sects.
Over time, although these "deputy leaders" are not "big figures" in the city of Wushuo, they are definitely a little bit thin. They may not be able to handle big things, but some small things can still be done.
For example, it has been the day when the underground palace is opened once a year, and the sects in the Jingjiu Dynasty have arrived one after another. This is just "live" for most monks at the bottom of the Wude City and has nothing to do with them. At most, they will talk about it after dinner.
But this time this year there are new topics.
"Have you heard it? Some people collect "snow bugs" everywhere in the city, and the price has soared to a low-grade spirit stone!"
"Impossible? Although that thing is rare, it is said to be the best food, but it is not that spiritual objects cannot increase their spiritual energy. It would be good to sell more money. Can you still exchange spirit stones? I don't believe it."
"Tsk, don't believe it? You know Liu Biao, the deputy head of Hengshi Maxing, did you know? I asked each restaurant early this morning, and the price also soared to a low-grade spirit stone, and he also said that he would need at least ten!"
"Liu Biao? He really said that? That shouldn't be fake. But ten snowworms weigh one or two pounds. Can he finish buying so many?"
"Brother! Am I talking about the fact that I can't finish eating?! I'm talking about the spirit stone! Don't you want it?"
"I think, but can you catch snowworms? That thing is going to be captured and extinct. I haven't seen anyone in several years. We'll just watch this spirit stone."
"No, I have to go around the surrounding area to try my luck. If I find it, I will send it. It's more profitable than the ones we've been here to help people carve a brand for a year!"
......
Snowworm, a big white insect, lives savoryly underground around the city of Wudie City and feeds on a special local plant, "Snow Lantern Grass". The meat is delicious and is known as the number one delicacy in Wudie City. Some people even place it as the top food in the world.
But the reputation of snowworms is very high in the city. Not to mention eating them in the Jingji Dynasty, almost a few people have heard of this.
Because it is so delicious, the number of snowworms has always been sparse. If it weren't for the rapid reproduction, it would have been extremely eaten.
But no matter how rare it is, it is just an ordinary food. At most, it is a delicacy. If you sell it, you are not considered a silver or gold ticket, is it amazing? But this time, the price is directly priced at the lower-grade spirit stone, which is outrageous.
It is not the same as "Wuliangye's spirit stone exchange", is it a fool, right? However, this kind of doubt disappeared quickly under the name of "Liu Biao, the deputy head of the Hengshi Horse Stand". Everyone knows that people in the Horse Stand will not talk nonsense, and they still want the serious business they do.
But why is it so anxious suddenly? It’s obvious that the problem that can be solved with money is just because of the urgent problem. The price has soared to the level of a low-grade spirit stone. Isn’t this a loss? Then Liu Biao is so stupid?
Of course not.
Soon, the reason why Liu Biao collected snowworms was dug out by someone. In fact, it was not a secret. That is: flattery.
It is said that among the monks of the Jingji Dynasty who opened the underground palace of the Wude City this time, there is a big figure different from previous years: the commander of the Black Flag Camp of Xuanqingwei and the deacon of the foreign affairs of Fenghong Villa, Shen Hao, and Lord Shen.
Lord Shen likes delicious food. After he arrives in Wudicheng, he wants to taste fresh, but the snowworm has to try his luck, so he has not yet got what he wants. Doesn’t this give Heng a chance to flatter? It’s a high price, and on the one hand, it can receive the ingredients as soon as possible, and on the other hand, it can also show the weight of the flattery.
Finally, just ten low-grade spirit stones are indeed a big fortune for ordinary people or lower-level monks. But for Heng Ship Horse Shop, it is just average.
Since it proved that this was not a scam, many people were moved. They threw down their work and went to the surrounding area to find snowworms. Hurry up, they only had ten items, and if they were slow, they could only sell silver instead of spirit stones.
ps: This is today's additional update. At the same time, thank you to the leader of the "Sacred Light Oracle" for rewarding.
