Lord: Start with a copy of Water Margin

But he said that everyone was chatting and laughing and returned to the town. Zhao Zhen and others still went to camp in the camp, not to mention that Zhao Zhen and others were resting and chatting in the camp.

It was only said that Song Jinhong and Song Shiqin returned home. Song Jinhong asked: "Brother, why didn't you let me finish what I said on the wall?"

Song Shiqin said: "Little sister, do you want to use the pots and jars obtained from the tomb as bets?"

Song Jinhong nodded and said: "Of course, after all, although these items are advanced, their value is much lower than other advanced items. What do you mean, brother?"

Song Shiqin asked: "What do you think of the clam bracelet that Zhao Zhen brought?

Song Jinhong said: "Although it has no lethality, when this rosary is worn on the hand, the ghost does seem to be scrupulous and hesitant to act."

Song Shiqin said: "So, it's not a loss to exchange three thousand guan of cotton for these seven rosaries, right?"

"Of course it's not a loss. For my family, this rosary is not as good as the first-level weapons." Song Jinhong replied.

"Yes, if I can get more clam bracelets, it will be much easier for me to wait for the fog in the tomb in the future, and I don't need to look for help from everywhere. On that day, Zhao Zhen bought a cart of clams, but only 10% of them could be made. A hundred or ten strings of magic weapons are not too many."

"We don't need so many magical artifacts. As long as we have thirty strings, the fog in the tomb will not let us come and go. Although most of the objects unearthed in the tomb are ordinary objects buried with them, a high-grade pottery bowl, It’s worth a hundred dollars.”

"In the past, in order to rush for time, I sometimes blew out the eternal lamp. Today, I wiped out all the ghost zombies in the tomb and got two high-level large plates. If this continues from now on, it will not only be an income, but also the fog in the tomb will be gone. No matter how troubled he is, we still want to make friends with Zhao Zhen," Song Shiqin said.

"Besides, you also saw today that Zhao Zhen brought more than ten men, all of whom are good. Judging from this situation, his fantasy world is in good shape and he has recruited a lot of talents."

Song Jinhong also said: "I saw that the tall girl was the main one among Ji's twin sisters. On the way to Qudui today, I asked Ji Minghan whether this girl was the newly married beauty of Zhao Zhen in the fantasy world. My concubine is very skilled in martial arts, so I brought her here."

Song Shiqin said: "I have to say that Gao Hu's luck is also very good. He saw Zhao Zhen's potential early and made a heavy bet. Now we have to make friends with him. I don't know if we will need him in the future."

Song Jinhong said: "What my brother said makes sense. However, what should be used to offset this bet? You can't come up with two pieces of first-class cotton, right? This is the best fabric for making clothes."

Song Shiqin said: "For this level of cotton, my family can only spin five or seven pieces a year. Just give me one piece. As for the other bet, I will use these two new pieces I got."

"You will send this cloth, just under the guise of giving it to his wife and concubines. In this way, it does not appear to be deliberate, but it can also reflect the importance we attach to it."

Song Jinhong responded and said: "So, for this 3,000-string cotton transaction, we can't use ordinary cotton?"

Song Shiqin said: "This ordinary cotton cloth is not a scarce commodity. Only those exotic cotton cloths can impress him."

Song Jinhong said: "The only exotic cotton that can produce stable output is water cotton. The water cotton cloth on the market costs five pieces per piece. How about I sell it to him for 750 pieces at a price of four pieces?"

Song Shiqin said: "That's fine. My little sister will go down and make some preparations. We will be doing business with him during the banquet at night."

At night, Song Qian invited Zhao Zhen and others to a banquet at Song Shiqin's house. Song Shiqin and Zhao Zhen sat opposite each other. Song Jinhong accompanied Hu Sanniang, Ji Minghan, and Ji Minglian. Next, Liu Tang and others were entertained by Zhuang Ding, the steward of Song Shiqin's house. The soldiers who entered the tomb at the Song Dynasty today also sat in attendance.

Song Shiqin raised his glass and said, "Let's drink this first glass of wine today. Thank you brothers for dispelling the fog."

After everyone heard this, they all stood up and raised their glasses.

As the first glass of wine went down, Song Shiqin continued: "Today, the three of us made a bet to see who can emerge from the fog first. Brother Zhao Zhen won. I will use the pair of big plates I got today as a bet for my brother."

With that said, he took a tray from Zhuang Ding and handed it to Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen quickly waved his hand and said: "Brother Song, this is just a joke, how can you take it seriously?"

Song Shiqin smiled and said, "Brother Zhao Zhen, this plate isn't worth much. It's just for fun. Don't refuse, brother."

Song Jinhong also smiled and said: "I prepared a piece of first-class cotton cloth as a bet, and Zhao Lizheng's family happened to be here."

With that said, he took a piece of cotton cloth and sent it to Hu Sanniang. Zhao Zhen cupped his hand, motioned for Hu Sanniang to accept it, and said, "If so, I won't be polite."

Song Jinhong said: "Besides this piece of cotton cloth, I also have a ball of matching thread here. I use it to sew clothes. The clothes made can't protect as much as a layer of cowhide armor. Wearing them on daily basis can also provide more protection."

"There is one more thing, let's settle it while we are awake. As for the cotton cloth traded for clam beads, the village happens to have a batch of different kinds of cotton cloth. In the hot summer, wearing it is like running through cold water. It is the most refreshing. but."

"This cloth costs five guans a piece on the market. I'll give Brother Zhao Zhen a price of 4 guan, and use 750 pieces of water cotton cloth to exchange for these seven strings of clam beads. What do brothers Zhao Zhen think?"

Zhao Zhen said: "It's naturally very good. Thank you both for taking care of me."

After the transaction was completed, Song Shiqin came to persuade him to drink again. Zhao Zhen also put down his thoughts and exchanged glasses with the Song brothers and sisters. Everyone drank until late at night, and then they dispersed after having half a dozen drinks.

Hu Sanniang, Ji Minghan, and Ji Minglian were cautious and did not drink much. They waited for Zhao Zhen to rest at night, and the three of them slept next to Zhao Zhen in the big tent.

Early the next morning, after Zhao Zhen had breakfast, Song Shiqin brought more than ten carriages to deliver water cotton cloth.

After meeting Zhao Zhen, Song Shiqin said: "Brother, these water-cotton cloths are all here. Let me check it out. I will let the convoy go with me. When I get to my brother's place, I will ask you to arrange food and accommodation. Let the convoy come to you early tomorrow morning." Just come back.”

After hearing this, Zhao Zhen asked Pei Xuan and Zhu Fu to come forward and count the numbers. Zhao Zhen said: "Brother Song, don't worry, I will arrange the food and accommodation for the team, and I won't treat them badly."

Zhao Zhen thought of the cooking utensils produced in Anling Qudui that can increase the taste, and said, "Brother Song, I wonder if you have extra cooking utensils here. I want to buy a few pieces back."

Song Shiqin said: "The most indispensable thing I have here is cooking utensils. The most common ones are clay pottery pots made of clay with a corded pattern, gray pottery pots with a checkered pattern of sand, and gray pottery with a corded pattern of sand. I wonder what kind of things do you want, brother?"

Zhao Zhen said: "Brother Song, if there are many here, I will have two sets of these three."

Song Shiqin said: "Of course, I will give you 1,000 pieces for six pieces."

Zhao Zhen nodded, took ten silver [Lin Toe Wraps], and exchanged two sets of cooking utensils from Song Shiqin.

After Pei Xuan and Zhu Fu counted the pieces of cloth, they saw that the number was correct and told Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen immediately resigned from Song Shiqin, and everyone supervised the convoy and headed for Bailiu Village.

On the way, Zhao Zhen couldn't help chatting with Song Qian: "Manager Song, I wonder if Hanji Township has any specialties other than cotton and furniture?"

Song Qian said: "Officials, in addition to Hanjixiang, there are also many chefs in Hanjixiang. Many restaurants in the county have cooks from Hanjixiang. However, although the cooks are not short of food and drink, it can be said that there is no shortage of food and drink. When it comes to running the industry, cotton farmers and weavers are the best.”

"There is no squire in Hanji Township who does not grow cotton and weave cotton cloth. Just like the water cotton cloth purchased by high officials, this cloth is made into clothes. In addition to being ventilated and breathable, wearing it feels like soaking in a stream. It is very It’s cool. In summer, a shirt made of water cotton is much more comfortable than ordinary clothes.”

Ji Minghan listened at the side and said: "Husband, what Manager Song said is true, but this cotton cloth is not good enough. Wearing it for up to two hours will no longer keep you cool. It can only be restored after washing and drying. As before."

Song Qian said: "Madam is right, but most families don't sell high-grade cotton cloth. Yesterday, my lady was able to bring out a piece of high-grade cotton cloth, which is really rare."

Ji Minglian said: "This water cotton cloth is common. There is another one, which is called gun cotton cloth. It is the most warm when worn in winter."

Song Qian said: "The output of guncotton cloth is less than that of water cotton cloth. I heard that a lot of guncotton cloth is sent to the border every year. Therefore, guncotton cloth is rare in the market. The price is even higher than fifteen yuan. match."

Zhao Zhen said: "A piece of fifteen pieces is something ordinary people can't afford. If I hadn't come to Hanji Township this time, I wouldn't have known that there would be such cotton cloth."

Ji Minghan said: "Husband, each of my sisters has a few pieces of these water-cotton clothes. Sister Ji Xuan has made one of the guncotton clothes with her years of running a cloth shop. She is not willing to wear it on weekdays."
