The prince is very cruel
Chapter 495
This caused the Ba people to exclaim in surprise.
“It’s really salt!”
“It’s salt!”
"I haven't eaten salt for a month and I can't even buy it!" an old man said excitedly.
"And porcelain, so beautiful, is this the porcelain outside?"
"Dad, what beautiful silk, can we ask our ancestors to give us some?" A girl next door was surprised, her eyes full of expectation.
This was the first time they had access to these things.
In an instant, the people living in Bashan became active and were happier than during the Chinese New Year.
Nie Nan's face flushed with excitement and he was extremely happy.
There was disbelief in the old ancestor's eyes. He took a quick look and saw that there were at least several hundred kilograms of official salt alone. In Shu, where supplies were scarce, this was a huge amount!
Not to mention that these things are difficult to obtain, and require connections and relationships outside, the difficulty and cost of transportation alone are enough to discourage many wealthy businessmen, but Guan Ning did it!
Strictly speaking, it was done in seven days!
He looked at the happy eyes of his tribesmen, even their cheers of tears of joy, and his cloudy and old eyes could not help but become slightly moist.
"Where is Ning Fei? Where is Ning Fei?" He looked around in the crowd.
"Ancestor, I'm here." Guan Ning walked out with a smile.
"Little kid, accept my greeting!" The old man bowed without saying a word.
The ancestors had already bowed, so how could others dare to stand? They all shouted, "Master Ning, please accept our greetings!"
The loud and orderly voices resounded through the sky, and in an instant, the status of the guest Guan Ning soared.
Guan Ning was flattered and quickly helped the old ancestor up with one hand.
"Grandfather, please don't do this. I can't bear it!"
"Brother Nie and I are of the same mind, this is nothing."
The old ancestor said seriously: "This may not be a big deal for you, but it is a big deal for the Bashan and Shu regions."
"If we can have such goods coming in on a long-term basis, the lives of the people in Shu will be much better."
Hearing this, Guan Ning smiled and snapped his fingers: "Roland, come here."
He looked over with a swish of eyes.
Suddenly, a beautiful woman who was out of place in Bashan walked out of the crowd. She was dressed gorgeously and had a charming demeanor. She was obviously a woman from a wealthy family. Who could possibly get her hands on her without several thousand taels of silver from an ordinary family?
"Greetings, Patriarch Bashan." Roland was quick-eyed and recognized the situation. He saluted quickly without any arrogance.
"This is my subordinate. All the goods shipped to Shu this time were produced by her. From now on, if Shu is short of supplies, you can contact her directly."
"She will try her best to satisfy you and gather manpower to open a channel to Bashan." Guan Ning said.
Upon hearing this, everyone in Bashan was ecstatic!
"Sir, this is true!"
"really!"
The ancestors were all excited and extremely happy, as if it was New Year’s Day.
Blushing, he said, "Don't worry, Mr. Luo. We Shudi Ba people will not take advantage of others. We are willing to pay for these goods and future goods."
"For something as scarce as official salt, I can exchange it for Shu's unique specialties and herbs. What do you think?"
After saying this, he felt a little nervous, afraid of being rejected.
After all, commodities like official salt are in short supply and are not on the same level as herbs that are available everywhere.
But Roland just glanced at Guan Ning and immediately said with a smile on his face, "Grandfather, no problem."
"As long as it's arranged by Master Ning, our Scarlet Phoenix Chamber of Commerce will do it!"
The so-called Scarlet Phoenix Chamber of Commerce was the chamber of commerce established by Roland with the help and suggestion of Guan Ning during this period after the fall of the Zheng family.
Although it was newly established, relying on Guan Ning's connections and support, she quickly gathered together many businesses of the former Zheng behemoth, as well as some inheritance.
With all these blessings, collecting official salt and silk is not a problem at all.
Suddenly, the ancestor was overjoyed!
He said three times in a row: "Okay, okay, okay!"
"Nan'er, immediately gather all clansmen to come to Bashan to collect supplies."
"Also, immediately slaughter the pigs and sheep and bring out the best wine to entertain the guests who have come from afar!"
"No one is allowed to harass the guests!"
The ancestors issued several death orders in succession. They had looked for people and used their connections before, hoping that someone could transport the supplies in.
But without exception, they all failed. They despised the backwardness of Shu and the ordinary things that the Ba people could trade.
Only Guan Ning truly brought what Bashan wanted.
"Yes!" All the enthusiastic people of Bashan shouted in unison, took action and showed their most enthusiastic side.
Not long after, a grand bonfire party was held in Bashan, with singing and dancing, and it was very lively.
During this period, the ancestor, who was almost a hundred years old, even appeared in person, which directly pushed the atmosphere of the bonfire party to a climax.
Looking at Bashan Mountain which was flooded with bonfires, singing and dancing, some people were happy, but some people hated it!
"Ning Fei." The old ancestor took Guan Ning's hand and walked to a slightly quieter place at the edge.
"Ancestor, what's wrong?" Guan Ning smiled. He drank a few fewer cups, and his face was red from being roasted by the bonfire.
The old ancestor smiled bitterly: "I am old and can't keep up with the pace of you young people. I have to go back and lie down."
"However, before I leave, I must make my position clear. I, Bashan, will do my best to protect you in your matter. I will find a way to report it to the capital in the next two days!" He is serious, tough, and always keeps his word.
