His destination is West Qin Fort, which is the place Zhao Hao designated for him.

If he went to Xiqinbao, he didn't even need to look at the map, because he had been there many times.

However, he was still a little flustered. He had indeed done exchanging things with the clansmen of the original Haotian tribe, and he had done it more than once. However, he had never tried exchanging things with clansmen from other territories, because he I don't know people from other territories at all, so how can I exchange things with them.

Feeling apprehensive, he led more than [-] people, drove the carriage, walked for three days, and finally arrived at the familiar Xiqin Fort.

At this time, many Xiqin leaders who received the news had already been waiting there with rice for a long time.

They all knew that the knives produced by Haotian Ling were extremely sharp, so the knives Zhao Yi and the others brought were quickly robbed, and they exchanged for more than 200 catties of rice.

However, the top leaders of the Xiqin collar liked dime coins the most, because they liked archery. Unfortunately, this time, Zhao Yi and the others only brought around [-] dime coins, not even enough to put them between their teeth.

Fortunately, they brought a lot of dried meat, leather goods, pottery and ironware.

If you want to have a tooth-making festival and eat some Haotian-style jerky, you are lucky.

I want to make a sheepskin jacket to keep warm. Basically, I don’t need to be exposed to the cold this winter.

If I want to change to a hoe and use it to open up wasteland and dig land, it will be much easier to work in the future.

The business of Zhao Yi's team is surprisingly good, because of the strong support and publicity of the Western Qin Hou Jiwei, and the things they brought are indeed very popular. In less than half a day, the things they brought were sold out. After exchanging it all, the rice was exchanged for two large carts, nearly four thousand catties.

There are even rich and powerful people who want to exchange their carriages and horses!

Although the other teams took a little more time, the transaction was quite successful. Basically, within two days, all the things brought by the teams were exchanged.

After all, the Great Elder of Nanhua has already sent notices to the elders or liehous of various territories. Everyone knows that the people in Haotian Territory want to exchange all kinds of good things for rice, so they are going to do a little bit.

Chapter 263 Selling Horses

Zhennan Fort, the elders' house, in the lobby.

Zhao Hao took a sip of the porridge with minced meat, and then looked at the bamboo slips reported by each team, with a smug smile on his face.

He guessed right, the knives and dimes were very popular, and the tens of thousands of knives and dimes brought out by the nearly five thousand guards were not left, and they were all robbed and exchanged.

In other words, there is no problem with knife coins and dime coins as currency, and there is no need for him to force them to be issued, and some people are rushing to ask for them.

This time, the reason why he succeeded was not the transaction function of the currency, but other functions of the currency.

In fact, as a trading tool, currency has more than just trading functions in the initial stage.

For example, gold, the strongest currency in ancient times, has more than just transaction functions.

Many people acquire gold not to trade goods with other people, but to create exquisite accessories such as rings, necklaces, headgear, etc. What's more, some people use gold to make furniture and even statues to show their wealth and wealth.

This is the fundamental reason why gold, as the strongest currency, is enduring, because it not only has the function of transaction, but also has the characteristics of timeless, decorative function, and is also a symbol of wealth.

The same is true for knife coins and horn coins. Now, most people rush to get knife coins and horn coins not for trading, but for their practical functions, or to use the sharpness of knife coins, or to exchange horn coins For arrows.

That's a good start, and as long as the knife and dimes are snapped up, they're bound to be a strong currency.

Another point, he also guessed correctly, is that there are people who want horses and carriages, and there are quite a few people who want them.

These horses and carriages are good things. They not only have the functions of riding and carrying goods, but also a status symbol. Presumably, most people who want to exchange horses do so to show off by riding them out, just like the nobles of later generations. same car.

After all, all the horses he gave away were given to Ji Rushuang's relatives, and most of these people were high-level officials in Nanhua. Seeing their "heroic appearance" on horseback, the other people in Nanhua might be envious of them, and wished they could have one for themselves.

The next step is to sell the horses and carriages.

He doesn't have many cattle and sheep in his hand, but he still has a lot of horses. As for the carriages, last time in order to take down the west wing of the Xueman tribe, the battalions also built a lot, and now they are all stored in Zhennan Fort. Well, not to mention many, it is not a problem to sell more than a thousand vehicles.

On this day, after most of the squad returned to Zhennan Fort, Zhao Hao ordered all the guards to gather at the big school field in the fort.

This book is organized and produced by the public account.Pay attention to VX [Book Friends Base Camp], read books and receive cash red envelopes!

He stood on the high platform, looked at the guards below who were eager to try, and looked at the clansmen who were all around looking forward to it, and then said loudly: "This time everyone must have exchanged a lot of rice, do you want to run again? How about a trip?"

This time, all the guards, all the clansmen, there was no trace of panic on their faces, and everyone almost had the same expression, that is, think!

They all want to make another trip, or even a few more trips.

Because their harvest was very good this time, almost everyone harvested three or four hundred catties of rice, and they didn't pay much.

The knives and dimes were all given by Zhao Hao, as well as a little dried meat, a few pieces of pottery and ironware, and one or two extra leather goods.

This little thing is nothing to them, but they used these to exchange for more than a month's rations at home, so why not do it.

Rice, that is really delicious.

The minced meat porridge is really delicious.

The fresh food taught by these elders is quite delicious, and the key point is that it is much more cost-effective than eating meat. Everyone wants to change a little more.

Zhao Hao looked at the expectant expressions of the crowd, and then continued to speak loudly: "I heard that many people want horses and carriages, no problem, this time, we will give them some horses and carriages."

Ah!

When everyone heard this, they were all dumbfounded.

Of course they knew that people wanted horses and carriages, and those people's bids were quite high.

The question is, these horses and carriages are the guys they eat. If they exchange them for others, how will the things be transported and how will the food be transported back?

Zhao Hao then said in a loud voice: "This time, I will send out a thousand horses and a thousand carriages. Take them to the places you have been to, and first help me exchange one horse and one carriage for rice, that is, Said, this time, each team will bring four carriages, one for exchange, and three for transporting rice. Of course, I will not let everyone make a trip in vain. A horse can be exchanged for [-] One catty of rice, one horse-drawn cart for one thousand catties of rice, [-] catties of rice per team, I only need half of it, and the remaining half will be your reward for this trip."

A horse for [-] catties of rice!

When everyone heard this, they were dumbfounded again.

If you just count the weight, how can it be impossible for a horse to weigh a thousand catties, and exchange for [-] catties of rice?

Everyone thought about it carefully, and suddenly found that there seemed to be no problem with this bid.

Because this horse is not used for eating, but for riding. With a horse, many things are much more convenient.

Zhao Hao stopped to take a breath, and then continued: "Everyone should not bring other things this time. After all, three carriages can bring back so much food at most. However, you can tell the clansmen in other territories If they want knives, coins, meat and leather goods, pottery and ironware, or horses and carriages, they can bring rice or knives and dimes to Zhennan Castle to exchange."

This is his main purpose of exchanging horses and carriages for others. He wants people from other territories to come to Zhennan Castle to exchange things.

If there are no horses and carriages, people from other territories will be in trouble if they want to come to Zhennanbao. After all, if they only rely on their legs to walk, it will take at least ten days for people from other territories in Nanhua to walk. months are possible.

Such a long distance, or such a long time, can't carry much rice or exchange many things. Naturally, people from other territories won't be so bored and take the initiative to come to Zhennanbao to trade.

With horses and carriages, it is different. Even if they are thousands of miles away, it will only take a few days. Moreover, they can bring a lot of rice and exchange for a lot of things back.

In short, with horses and carriages, it is much more convenient whether traveling or transporting things. I believe that tribesmen in other territories will definitely not be able to resist the temptation of knives, coins, meat and leather goods, pottery and iron, or the horses and carriages themselves. , ran to Zhennan Fort to exchange.
