Chapter 0002 Market

The alley was deep and winding, and Jia Yun kept changing directions, afraid that someone would follow him behind him.

If he did not recognize the wrong person, then the jade he picked up just now was most likely the piece of spiritual jade worn by Jia Baoyu.

For the Jia family, ten taels of silver are nothing, but if this piece of jade is lost, it will be a big deal.

With excitement and trepidation, Jia Yun came to a quiet and remote place and stopped. He carefully took out the jade from his arms. He looked closely and saw that the jade was as big as a sparrow egg, as bright as a bright cloud, as bright as a crisp, and was wrapped in five-color patterns.

Front seal script: Don’t lose and forget the spiritual jade, and immortality will live a long life!

The seal script on the back: One is to eliminate evil spirits, two is to cure unjust diseases, three is to know good fortune and good fortune!

"It's indeed that piece of jade!" Jia Yun took a deep breath and thought to himself.

He didn't want to return this jade to Jia Baoyu because he felt that this jade was destined to be with him. As for why he felt this feeling, he couldn't explain it clearly.

"Blood drops to recognize the master first!" Jia Yun thought for a moment, bit her finger and dripped blood on Baoyu.

The blood dripped on the jade and disappeared immediately, and the seal script on the jade face gradually faded.

"Damn it, there is not enough blood. I will fuck it so quickly. Keep biting!" Jia Yun felt cruel when she saw that the bitten fingers stopped bleeding.

...

On Ningrong Street, Jia Baoyu ran and muttered, feeling something was wrong.

He stopped quickly, rubbed his body for a moment, suddenly his heart trembled and said to himself, "I've suffered, where is my jade?"

The place where the jade-inlaid circle on his neck was empty. Although he liked to throw it in front of his sisters if he had something to do or not, he was really scared when he was lost.

"What should I do? Where did I lose it? School? Mansion? Street? Teahouse? Chunlou? Theater? When did I lose it?" Jia Baoyu was so scared that his eyes were dazed, his whole body was sweating, his whole body was stiff, and his lips were trembling.

"Master Bao Er..." Mingyan, who was panting behind, shouted loudly, immediately awakening Jia Baoyu.

At this time, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he thought to himself: "I can't hurry to go home now, nor can I let people know that I lost my jade. Otherwise, the master would be ready to beat me again. Why don't I just take the money and go find someone and put it on exactly the same."

He has worn the jade since he was a child, and he knew it very well, no matter how big or small he looked. As long as the craftsman he found was superb, he would not disappoint him.

As for jade, it is not difficult to find. There is also a piece of mutton fat jade in his room the size of a fist, which is enough to use, and it is similar to the piece of jade he wears.

There was no better way at the moment. Jia Baoyu turned around and took out Mingyan's penis and money. He had to spend all the money on him. He thought that the wages should be enough.

So he quickly ordered Mingyan, "Mingyan, hurry back to the house and find Xiren's sister, and ask her to give you the piece of jade I put in the treasure box and deliver it to me. I'm in a hurry now, go quickly, I'll wait for you here."

Mingyan was so tired that she was sweating profusely. She was about to mutter a few words when she saw Jia Baoyu's eyes wide and his face showed a cruel look. So she didn't dare to say anything and trotted to the Jia Mansion.

...

After absorbing enough blood, the spiritual jade flashed a glimmer and rushed straight to Jia Yun's eyebrows.

Before he could react, the jade disappeared.

Jia Yun was overjoyed and thought that it was worthy of being a spiritual treasure. After the jade penetrated into his mind, it not only did not make him feel uncomfortable, but instead made him clear. Many vague memories of his previous life also flashed like a knife.

What made him even more ecstatic was that there was a space of hundreds of acres and a hundred feet high and a fountain as thick as a bowl inside the jade. The water was gurgling, nourishing the land of the space.

The land in the space is round, with a hundred acres of land only more than 66,000 square meters, a diameter of more than 250 meters and a circumference of more than 900 meters.

In addition, this spiritual treasure also comes with a cultivation method called "Yin Yang Wuji Gong", with a total of twenty-four chapters, which are changed from the original twenty-four words on the spiritual jade.

The first twelve chapters are practiced by men, and the last twelve chapters are practiced by women.

Jia Yun didn't know whether this martial art was powerful or not, but he believed that no matter how bad the martial arts that could be passed on with this method, it would be no less.

"First go to the street to buy some things, and then start practicing the exercises." Jia Yun made a decision.

The flow rate of time in space is different from that outside, one day outside and one year in space.

Only by practicing the martial arts can his true body enter the space and be free from the influence of the space time flow rate, and at the same time, he can also have the means to use various functions of the space.

For example, when planting, after having the exercises, you can move your mind at will, plant whatever you want in the space. After the dealer matures, you can also do some simple rough processing, such as rice hulling, wheat husks, etc., which can be accomplished in one thought.

"It's really amazing!" Jia Yun smiled and was excited. After slapped the dust on her body and the rouge on her chest, she took the silver Jia Baoyu had just thrown to him and walked to the market.

Beijing is the largest commercial and trade center in the country and a place where all the merchants and goods gather.

The major markets are concentrated around the imperial city and gradually developed into huge comprehensive commercial areas. They also have various special special markets as supplements, such as inner cities, outer cities, lantern cities, Xiaoshi, temple cities, etc., making the capital more prosperous.

The so-called inner market is a trading market that is uniquely entrusted to serve the palace and officials within the imperial city. It is located within the imperial city and opens the market outside the Xuanwu Gate of the Forbidden City. Trade is carried out every four months.

The goods traded in the domestic market are of high specifications and grades, and there are many rare treasures, cultural relics, and antiques that are not easy for outsiders to see.

Huangmiao City, the Land Temple City is called "outside market".

Chenghuang Temple City is located in Huangmiao Street north of Chushikou. It opens on the first, fifteenth and twenty-fiveth day of every month.

The ancient and modern books, antiques, jade and jewelry, foreign satin and Shu brocade, ivory and rhinoceros horns, secret collections of the inner palace, foreign treasures, etc., are all visible here that are hard to see on weekdays.

Tudimiao City is located in Tudimiaoxie Street outside Xuanwumen. It opens on the third, thirteenth and thirteenth day of every month.

There are a lot of tourists at the temple fair, and its prosperity is comparable to that of the Huguo Temple Fair and Longfu Temple Fair.

In Xiaoshi, transactions will automatically start when the sun is dawn and end at dawn.

The reason why Xiaoshi chose Xiaoshi as the city was because some dilapidated officials and rich children in the capital made a living by selling their old things. They were afraid of being seen by acquaintances because of their face, so they could only choose to sell them before dawn.

There are also thieves who sell stolen goods before dawn. At first, they are a bit shameful and disgraceful, so they are also called black market and ghost market.

Xiaoshi mainly sells old goods in exchange and has a wide range of goods, including furniture, wood, clothing, books, newspapers, pens and inkstones, gold, silver and jewelry, and daily necessities.

It is difficult to distinguish between real and fake, and the high and low are mixed.

With ten taels of silver in his arms, Jia Yun came to a market and bought some grain seeds, such as rice, wheat, soybeans, millet and sorghum, each weighing a pound.

The vegetable seeds were not pulled down, and I bought some of them, including winter melon, pumpkin, cucumber, loofah, peas, eggplant, cabbage, radish, lettuce, green onion, leek, rapeseed, pepper, ginger, etc.

After buying the seeds, Jia Yun looked at a spice shop and thought to herself, "The next time is the time to spend money."

He planned to buy some braised ingredients and prepare them. The braised ingredients had a strong aroma. In ancient times, they were mostly used as spices, which was much more expensive than grain.

"Star anise, cinnamon, pepper, sweet pine, cumin, white kettle, meat kettle, amomum villoss, bay leaves, male cloves, female cloves, ginger, southern ginger, lemongrass, licorice, herbaceous fruit..."

Buy less if you can use it as a seed, and buy more if you can't use it as a seed.

For example, cinnamon can only be obtained by planting cinnamon trees in the ground. Now if you want to use it, you have to spend money to buy it first.

When Jia Yun came out of the market with a sack of things, he had no penny on him.

The food and vegetable seeds didn't cost much, mainly because the spices were too expensive, so he hadn't bought too much.

"I was lucky. I actually met a foreign merchant and bought a few potatoes, a few sweet potatoes and a few corn on the cob."

When he came to the back of the man, Jia Yun threw the sack into the space. He carefully recalled the original owner's memory and found that in this era, potatoes, sweet potatoes and corn were not planted on a large scale on the Central Plains.

In addition, he bought two toothbrushes.

The toothbrushes are now almost the same as those in later generations, but they don’t need to be made of wooden.

Of course there is no toothpaste, but it is sold with ointment, but it is too expensive, so Jia Yun is reluctant to waste money, so she plans to use salt to just use it during this period.
