Chapter 71: The Treasure

"call--"

Putting down the two manuscripts in his hands, Mr. Fan was still a little unfinished. He looked at Situ Xi who was sitting beside him drinking tea. He was very sure that the two manuscripts were written by him. He knew the handwriting. It was really

It's amazing.

"Nine Kings are worrying too much. These two collections of stories should be able to be published and sold. Let Lao Zhu handle this matter. If you are in a hurry, I can go to a bookstore immediately and go there again.

Find a craftsman to make the engraving."

After receiving Mr. Fan's affirmation, Situ Xi felt relieved and could do whatever he could.

However, the subsequent texts of these two books are relatively long, and he may also publish other books later. If he really wants to buy a bookstore, movable type printing will definitely be much more efficient than engraving.

"If you are making engravings, please take it easy and use movable type instead. I will sort out the details of this printing method and leave them to you in a moment."

"Yes, I understand." Since Situ Xi said he would explain it to him after a while, Fan stopped asking further.

"By the way, you told me not to use the names of Brother Zhang and his daughter when registering this Jade Winery, but whose name should it be in?"

"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law! Are you there? I will take you to a fun place!" In the yard, running and shouting sounded at the same time.

"Well, this guy is here."

It just so happened that Zhong Limo also promised to do something for him last time.



This was an extremely crowded and noisy street. When Situ Xi followed Zhong Limo and walked in, he discovered that the streets on both sides were filled with Tibetan merchants whose skin color was obviously different from theirs.

Seeing Situ Xi appear at the wall at the intersection, Zuo Ming stood at attention and Zuo Chenyan immediately approached.

"Brother Situ, you are finally here. Your Highness and I have been waiting for a long time."

After stopping Situ Xi's salute, Zuo Mingli handed another rope chain to Situ Xi's hand.

"Brother Situ, I will leave this little monkey to you. You must treat it well."

Feeling the pull of the rope in his hand, Situ Xi knelt down and looked at the little Chow. It was sitting on the ground licking its brown and white hair, looking so naive.

Now I can be considered a member of the dog family. When I go back later, I will gather everyone to come up with a name for this new member.

"I like it very much. Thank you, Your Highness."

"Hey, you're welcome, I will never break my promise." Zuo Mingli opened the folding fan and flapped it twice in front of his chest, "Let's go shopping together in this market first. There are many rare things in it that you can't usually see.

.”

"Let's go! Last year when the Fan merchants entered Chu, I felt the cold and missed it. Today I must learn a lot." Zhong Limo had already taken the lead and rushed into the crowd.

The three of them smiled at each other and followed his footsteps towards the vendors on one side.

These Tibetan businessmen are all taller and dressed differently from the Chu people. They all speak fluent Chinese when communicating with their guests.

The bearded merchant in front of him seemed to have just sold a few items. He was in a good mood and was playing a tune with a slight smile. When he saw Situ Xi and others approaching, he hurriedly shouted to invite them over.

"Guests, please buy some jade. I have some fine pieces of red jade here."

Situ Xi walked to his stall and glanced at the goods displayed on it. Jade, spices, pearls, and corals were indeed relatively valuable things, but these things were not really unusual to him.

"Why does it feel a bit ordinary? This ivory does look good." Zhong Limo then directly reached out and held an ivory in his hand.

Seeing a little disappointment in Zhong Limo's eyes, Zuo Mingli smiled and patted him on the back.

"Look at how anxious you are, the real good products will not be placed in these stalls." After saying this, Zuo Mingli looked up again and looked at the bearded merchant, "Moss, I haven't seen him in a year, so I don't recognize him.

This king? Take me to meet your head."

When the merchant heard that the two young men in front of him were belittling his goods, he was about to argue, but he heard what Zuo Mingli said next.

The bearded merchant was immediately stunned and stared at Zuo Mingli for a long time. Suddenly his eyes widened in surprise and he bowed and said: "It turns out to be His Royal Highness King Geng!"



The four of them followed the businessman named Moss to a shop at the end of the street.

They stood in the hall while Moss went upstairs to inform the leader of their caravan.

"How could His Highness be so familiar with these Tibetan merchants?" Zuo Chenyan was the first to express doubts. These Tibetan merchants had just arrived in Xuan'an this morning. How did Zuo Mingli get acquainted with them?

"They are the same businessmen who came last year. You should have no impression of them." Zuo Mingli did not explain too much.

The sound of footsteps came from the second floor. A blue-eyed man with white curly hair was coming down the stairs. He was extremely fat and had a high belly.

As soon as Zhong Limo saw him on the stage, he subconsciously touched his belly and suddenly felt that his figure seemed to be perfect.

"Greetings to His Highness Prince Geng!" The fat man quickly ran down the stairs, knelt down in front of Zuo Mingli, and bowed to him gracefully.

"Norn, thank you for your hard work along the way. Can you bring back the things I entrusted you to buy this time?"

"Your Highness, we have brought them all, and you and your friends are invited to come in and take a look." Noen took out the key from his waist and opened a side door.

As soon as he entered the house, Noen lit the lights in the house, and Zhong Limo immediately let out an exclamation of surprise.

Situ Xi was also surprised. This room was like a treasure house at this time, and there was no extra space for people to stay.

There were more than a dozen treasure boxes neatly stacked on the ground, with their lids open, and the jewelry and agate inside shone brightly under the light.

Displayed on the shelves beside the wall were some cloth bags, which seemed to contain some medicinal materials and seasonings. Situ Xi could smell the strong fragrance mixed in the air.

In the center of the room was a metal sword stand, with a row of Western swords hanging from top to bottom. There were four swords in total, with different lengths and widths.
