Chapter 1662: Keep the wealth within the family
The salesman said in surprise and joy, "Just, just change it for a pheasant..."
The big wolf rushed out with a whoosh, leaving only a white shadow.
The salesman: "...legs."
The salesman looked at the disappearing white shadow, then looked at Tang Bao, his expression a little dull.
He knew asking for a pheasant leg was too much.
How can such a small fruit be exchanged for a pheasant leg?
However, his little granddaughter wanted to eat pheasant legs these days. He looked at the majestic wolf king and for some reason, he opened his mouth with a tentative intention.
"My lord, I know I'm wrong..." the salesman said with a shameful look on his face.
He shouldn't be so greedy.
Look, all the snow wolves raised by the palace master were mad and ran away.
Tang Bao shook his head and said with a smile: "Uncle exchanged it too cheaply, it's a loss."
The salesman: “…”
"Uncle, you've really lost out!" Princess Linghua said in a clattering voice, "This fruit can't be exchanged for a pheasant. Not to mention one, even ten or a hundred pheasants can't buy it!"
Xia Siya also smiled and said, "The big wolf was in such a hurry to run away because it knew it had gotten a great deal, so it hurried to catch the pheasant."
Da Pan and Er Pan nodded when they heard this.
Everyone had no doubt about the wolf's high intelligence.
After hearing these words, the salesman looked down at the small red fruit in his hand, and his heartbeat suddenly quickened.
It turns out that this fruit is so precious...
Tang Bao asked the accompanying guards to return the box containing the jade carvings to the Cloud Palace, and then said to everyone, "You guys continue to shop. I'm going out of the city to look for something."
"What are you looking for? There is strength in numbers, let's go look for it together." Princess Linghua said.
Although she really wanted to go shopping, she would always gain unexpected benefits by following Su Tang.
What's more, what Su Tang wants to find must be a good thing, and she will definitely find it.
However, Tang Bao disappointed her this time.
Tang Bao smiled and said, "You don't have to follow me. When I came here, I saw several plants on the roadside that can be used to make seasonings. I'll pick some and make you something delicious tonight."
As soon as Tang Bao finished speaking, Da Pan and Er Pan spoke immediately.
"Aunt, we'll go with you."
They were worried about their aunt leaving the city alone.
"No need!" Xuanyuan Jin glanced at the two of them, "I'll go with her."
Da Pan: "..."
Er Pan: “…”
Well, in front of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, they have to stand back.
Tang Bao smiled and said to his two nephews, "You two should take good care of Linghua and Siya. Take them for a good stroll around the city and buy some things they like to take back."
After saying that, he looked at Xuanyuan Jin and said, "Brother, don't you want to change something?"
"No rush." Xuanyuan Jin said, "I'll accompany you out of the city."
Tang Bao thought about it and said, "Okay, I'll go shopping with my brother some other day."
Soon, the group separated.
Before Tang Bao and Xuanyuan Jin reached the city gate, they encountered a big wolf running back happily with a fat pheasant in its mouth.
When the big wolf saw Tang Bao, he rushed towards him directly.
Xuanyuan Jin's heart suddenly tightened, and he instinctively wanted to protect Tang Bao.
Fortunately, the big wolf managed to stop.
Tang Bao patted the big wolf's head and said, "You took advantage of me. You should give me more prey in the future."
The big wolf nodded, holding the pheasant in his mouth.
"Go ahead." Tang Bao said.
The big wolf ran away.
Tang Bao glanced at Dalang's back, then looked around at the beautiful streets, and an idea came to his mind.
"Brother, do you think Yunzhong City... is there any possibility of trade with Dayan?" Tang Bao said thoughtfully, "There's a lot of jade here. If we exchange it for Dayan's grain, cloth, porcelain, and other items, wouldn't it be mutually beneficial?"
Tang Bao has discovered that although this place is a paradise, people's lives are not very rich.
At least the clothes they wore were mostly made of leaves and animal skins.
This shows that the textile industry is not well developed.
After listening to Tang Bao's words, Xuanyuan Jin slowly shook his head and said, "This place is too far from Dayan, and it's located in the snow-capped mountains, so transportation is inconvenient..."
Xuanyuan Jin paused here, and his voice became heavy.
"If this place were to be discovered by the outside world, it would only attract the covetousness of countless people, leading to war. If we are not careful, it would bring disaster to Yunzhong City."
After Xuanyuan Jin finished speaking, he took a look at the city gate which didn't even have a big door, let alone soldiers stationed there.
Although there is an illusion at the stone gate outside and ordinary people cannot enter, there is no guarantee that there will not be a master of formation who can break the formation at the stone gate.
In this way, Yunzhong City is like having its gates wide open, waiting for others to plunder.
No matter how brave and good at fighting the Yun family's ancestors were, in Xuanyuan Jin's eyes, the current Yunzhong City is just a fat sheep with extremely weak overall combat effectiveness.
The surrounding countries can all come and take advantage of the situation.
Tang Bao was shocked when she heard Xuanyuan Jin's words.
"Brother is really thoughtful!" Tang Bao sighed and said, "Since ancient times, money has moved people's hearts. I am narrow-minded."
Xuanyuan Jin's eyes showed a touch of tenderness. He touched Tang Bao's head and said, "You are thinking about your brother and want him to achieve this great achievement."
Tang Bao: “…”
Although... well, that's what I meant...
After all, the discovery of a new continent symbolizes wealth and merit.
"Then let this place remain mysterious and be the fairyland in the eyes of the world." Tang Bao said.
Xuanyuan Jin nodded.
Then, he thought for a moment and said, "In fact, even if you proposed trade, our ancestors would not agree."
Tang Bao: “…”
After a little thought, he understood what Xuanyuan Jin meant.
How smart were our ancestors?
The reason why he strongly opposed his grandmother's marriage to Dayan was probably because he didn't want the outside world to discover this place.
The reason why my grandmother never mentioned anything about Yunzhong City until her death was probably because she was worried about bringing disaster to Yunzhong City, so she kept silent.
Alas! I am still too naive.
"But..." Xuanyuan Jin's eyes flashed, and he said, "If you want, we can privately send our trusted people to bring items to exchange for jade, gold and silver. I'm sure the ancestor will agree."
Tang Bao: “…”
Oh, I see.
Keep the wealth within the family!
Make a fortune in silence!
As expected, the cunning one is still the little brother!
When Tang Bao thought of the jade mountains outside the city, she could already foresee how fat her brother’s wallet would be in the future!
Tang Bao gave Xuanyuan Jin a thumbs up.
Xuanyuan Jin raised his lips slightly and said, "Brother is benefiting from your help."
Tang Bao nodded seriously.
"Um!"
I totally agree with Xuanyuan Jin's words.
Even a fool can see that the old ancestor dislikes the young man.
If it weren't for my relationship, I would have driven the little brother away long ago!
