    Wonderful stories are unfolding one after another. Please collect, recommend, and click Wen Fei had anticipated such a situation, so he didn't even lock the carriage, just wrapped it with iron wire.  Zhang Shuye followed Wen Fei's instructions, came to the carriage door, and cut through the iron wire with a sword.  He opened the car door suddenly and saw that the entire car was packed with stuff.  In order to save space, Wen Fei welded a water tank in the rear compartment, which contained two tons of wine, which is four thousand kilograms.  It is equivalent to more than 5,000 kilograms of Song Jin.  It doesn't take up much space, probably only two square meters.  The other spaces are filled with all kinds of goods, making it dazzling.  Zhang Shuye looked curious and poked open a woven bag with his sword, and saw something as white and as fine as sand flowing down.  Although the others were scared, they were also very curious and watched from a distance.  There was such a big movement here, I don¡¯t know how many people were alarmed.  Looking from a distance near the Zhang family camp.  Zhang Sanweng frowned and gave some instructions.  The men of the big family were indeed well-trained, and they immediately drew their swords and drove the people away from a distance.  Then the curtains were pulled up again, isolating everything.  Only then did I see the fine white (actually a sensitive word, sweat) powder flowing out.  He couldn't help but ask: "What are these?" Wen Fei smiled slightly: "You'll know after you try it!" Before Zhang Sanweng continued to speak, he saw Zhang Shuye actually dipped a little powder in his mouth and couldn't help but wonder.  Shocked, he complained in his heart that his nephew was too reckless.  How could something of such unknown origin be put into your mouth casually?  Before he could finish complaining, he heard Zhang Shuye yelling.  Zhang Sanweng was so frightened that his heart trembled, but he heard Zhang Shuye shout: "This is salt, this is salt. Better salt than that green and white salt!" As soon as these words were spoken, Zhang Sanweng completely put aside all the complaints he had just made.  It went to the back of my head.  Although my nephew is an official and does not take care of the family business, he can't be wrong about this salt, right?  He quickly went up, pinched a little, and looked at it in his palm. He saw that the salt was actually thinner than sand.  I dipped some in it lightly and put it in my mouth. It melted in my mouth, leaving only a pure salty taste without any impurities.  I couldn't help but shout: "Good salt, such fragrant salt!" How can salt taste fragrant?  For those modern people who don¡¯t take refined salt seriously, this salt just tastes like that, and it¡¯s nothing special.  But for the ancients, it was really rare that there was no other messy taste in this salt!  Zhang Sanweng has been in the private salt business for a long time, so he is naturally very proficient in salt.  When I opened a package and took a look, I saw that the salt was as white as snow and as fine as sea sand, with not even a trace of impurities visible inside.  He immediately exclaimed: "How is this possible? How can there be such white salt in the world?" Wen Fei felt that it was not a big deal. For example, there are many adjectives in modern times.  For example, as white as salt, as fine as salt.  But this ancient salt is not so fine and white!  Needless to say, sea salt is boiled in a large pot with sea water, and the crystallization at the end is salt.  It will inevitably be mixed with some other impurities, including magnesium chloride, magnesium sulfate, magnesium carbonate, and various elements including potassium, iodine, sodium, bromine, etc.  The taste is inevitably bitter, and coupled with impurities such as dust and dirt that enter during cooking or transportation, there are even more impurities in the salt. ? Even blue and white salt is a mineral salt produced from natural salt ponds. Although it has fewer impurities than sea salt.  But it won't be gone, and the packet of salt in front of Wen Fei looks like white snow, with no impurities at all, and not even a little black spot can be seen.  Ten bags of salt, each bag weighing one hundred kilograms.  This is another two thousand pounds.  These were all table salt, and Wen Fei stupidly opened the small bags of refined salt with his hands, put them into these unmarked woven bags, and added a layer of plastic film.  That's how I got this big bag of salt.  This time, time was tight, and Wen Fei only brought these two kinds of goods.  Others were not brought.  Until he was shocked enough, Zhang Sanweng walked to the cab and said to Wen Fei: "Master Xian, do you have enough of this salt?" Wen Fei said carelessly: "As much as you want!" In modern times, this salt is very cheap.  , everywhere, simpler than wine.  In the Song Dynasty, the price of salt was extremely high, and there was even a saying that one bucket of rice could be exchanged for one pound of salt.  As mentioned before, this bucket contains more than nine kilograms, nearly ten kilograms of grain.  When the Song Dynasty was founded, the price of salt was still low, and it was sold to the mainland for only fifteen cents per catty.  Now the price of salt in places like Kaifeng has risen to more than 200 yuan, but that's in the mainland.  The Lumaji is not far from Xixia, where salt is produced, so the price is extremely low.  It only cost seven or eight cents per catty.When we go to the mainland, each kilogram will double nearly twenty times.  After explaining this truth to Wen Fei in detail, Wen Fei immediately grimaced.  It turns out that this salt is not easy to sell here!  Seventy-eight cents per catty, which is equivalent to only two or three yuan in RMB. A smuggling trip through time and space, and the profit is not a hundred times that I am embarrassed to tell anyone.  This one made double the price Looking at Wen Fei's face, Zhang Sanweng murmured in his heart, it seems that this immortal master really doesn't like the fireworks of the world.  I can¡¯t even figure out these joints!  But he said to Wen Fei: "Master Xian, if you can transport the salt to Tokyo, the profit will be hundreds of times higher!" Wen Fei sneered. For a few bags of salt, I traveled all the way from Lanzhou to Kaifeng  go.  Not to mention thousands of miles, the main reason is that in ancient times, let alone highways, there were no better flat roads.  It is estimated that this second-hand box will be scrapped before it reaches the halfway point.  But after hearing Zhang Sanweng repeatedly mention Bianliang (Kaifeng) in Tokyo, Wen Fei also became interested.  When people from the Northern Song Dynasty talked about Tokyo, they felt like it was in heaven and on earth.  If I have the opportunity in the future, I will also go on a trip and take some photos when I go back.  Those rich and idle people have nothing to do but travel everywhere. If they have the ability, why don¡¯t they go to Tokyo in the Northern Song Dynasty?  Thinking of this, it suddenly occurred to me that Chen Niwan and his master and apprentice seemed to have gone to Bianliang, and I would go to them anytime. ?? And these people from the Northern Song Dynasty are also really screaming about Tokyo and Tokyo.  It makes me think of little Japan every time, and I don¡¯t know if it¡¯s called Kaifeng, or else it would be more pleasant to call it Bianliang!  "If the immortal master can directly help us transport the salt to Ezhou or Tokyo, we are willing to pay one hundred Wen per catty!" Zhang Sanweng said with a thought.  "No, one hundred and fifty Wen!" Zhang Shuye suddenly said.
