Following.

Early in the morning, Yang Qiyi led the hundred officials on the road back to Yanjing City.

Peng Pai quietly stayed in the port city.

Two days later.

Su Yijian also quietly arrived in Hong Kong City.

The two met in a small hidden courtyard in Changle Fang.

"Su Xianggong ......"

"Sit down and talk."

After the two of them sat down, Su Yijian asked, "What is the situation now?" ”

Peng Pai sat opposite Su Yijian, and while helping Su Yijian pour tea, he said: "Huang Gu and Wang Yan have been scattering money in the port city for four days, and the news of the time to take a walk has been spread.

On the surface, the port city is still calm.

But behind the scenes, the waves are turbulent.

According to investigations, thousands of people have been secretly sent to Cangzhou.

In addition, orders from the three major shipyards on the terminal have also begun to increase frequently.

What's more, there are more than 10,000 speculators from all over the country. ”

Su Yijian picked up the teacup, blew the turquoise tea, and said with a smile: "Everything is going in the direction expected by His Majesty." ”

Taking a sip of tea, Su Yijian clicked his lips and sighed.

"No matter how much you drink this tea, you can't taste like wine. Hey......"

Peng Pai shrugged his shoulders and snickered.

Su Yijian glared angrily and said, "What are you laughing at...... laughing?"

After training Peng Pai, he was slightly stunned, and looked at Peng Pai with hot eyes.

Peng Pai woke up and said: "Don't ask me for alcohol, no one can violate the prohibition of alcohol issued by His Majesty." ”

Su Yijian pursed her mouth disdainfully, "A manly man, he can still be frightened by His Majesty's rude order, and it is useless." ”

Peng Pai spread his hands and said, "Don't provoke me, I won't have any wine for you." Last time, you tricked His Royal Highness into getting you a drink, and His Majesty almost didn't swell His Highness's buttocks.

A lesson from the previous car, a teacher from the back.

His Majesty is so cruel to His Royal Highness, if I dare to give you wine, I will have to shed my skin if I don't die. ”

Peng Pai paused, and just before Su Yi briefly continued to despise him, he spoke: "Getting back to business, what should we do next?" ”

"What to do? Acting according to the plan, of course. ”

……

Following.

Jian Zichuan Temple outside the port city.

A few foot merchants rested inside.

Suddenly, a man dressed in tattered clothes and covered in scars rushed into the ruined temple and rushed headlong in front of the footman.

A few of the businessmen were taken aback.

"Water...... Water...... Water ......"

The man lay on the ground and shouted for water.

Several of the merchants hesitated, and one of them, a kind-hearted merchant, stepped forward and handed him a water bladder.

The man held the water bladder and poured it unceremoniously.

When he had his fill, the man seized the good-hearted merchant and begged for something to eat.

The good-hearted merchant couldn't resist and gave him some dry food.

After the man was full and drunk, he regained his strength, looked at the kind-hearted merchant and said, "I walk the rivers and lakes, and I never receive favors from others in vain, and I will give you a fortune." ”

After the man said this, without waiting for the kind-hearted merchant to reply, he carefully took out a thick book from his bosom, then selected a page, tore it off, and solemnly delivered it to the kind-hearted merchant.

"What is this?"

"Shocking Wealth ......"

Dropping this sentence, the man didn't go back to the broken temple, and left in a hurry.

"What a shocking wealth, I think it's a stinky beggar, a stinky liar......"

The merchant immediately whispered.

However, before he could finish speaking, he was stunned.

Because the good-hearted businessman has already unfolded that piece of paper.

On the paper was a small map with many text notes on it.

"The Peacock Dynasty, believing in Buddhism, with a lot of gold and silver...... "The Great Wilderness of the Classic of Mountains and Seas" ......"

"It's ...... Map of the Mauryan Empire......"

Someone shouted on the spot.

In an instant, the eyes of several foot-walking merchants all fell on the kind-hearted merchants.

Two of them had fierce eyes, and they were obviously not good people.

The kind-hearted merchant swallowed a mouthful of saliva, timidly handed the map to the front, and whispered, "Twenty gold coins, sell it to you." ”

"You're very knowledgeable, twenty gold coins, our brother wants it."

The two of them, with fierce eyes, retracted their gazes, took out a bag from their arms, threw it to the kind-hearted merchant, and then took the map, turned around and left.

After the two left, the other businessmen pouted, "Are you stupid?" Now everyone knows that the Mauryan Dynasty is full of gold and silver, and there are many people on the market who have opened thousands of gold to collect maps of the Mauryan Dynasty.

You actually sold it to someone else. ”

The kind-hearted merchant was very satisfied with the bag of gold coins and said with a smile: "I just paid a bag of water and a little dry food, in exchange for nearly 10,000 times the reward, I am already content."

Besides, the world knows that the Mauryan Dynasty is full of gold and silver, so the map of the Mauryan Dynasty must be very precious.

It's not so easy to get from a beggar.

And those two brothers, who don't look like good people, lost their lives for a map that I don't know if it's true or false, and they can't draw it. ”

The others were stunned for a moment, nodded in amazement, and said, "What you said is also reasonable." If the map of the Mauryan Dynasty were so easy to obtain, no one would have spent a lot of money on it. ”

That's when it happened.

A group of fierce soldiers and horses rushed into the ruined temple.

The leader straddled the horse, holding a portrait in his hand, and asked a few merchants in a gloomy voice, "Have you seen this man?" ”

Isn't the person in the portrait the beggar who begged for food and drink just now?

Immediately, someone said, "I've seen it, just left, and went to the east." ”

"Chase!"

The leader turned his horse's head and gave the order to pursue.

The merchant asked behind him, "General, who is that?" ”

"A wicked man who escaped from the Cangzhou camp and killed many people."

The soldiers and horses have departed.

However, the words spoken by the leader echoed in the ears of several businessmen for a long time.

"Cangzhou camp supervised by the escape?!"

"That map, it may be true!"

“……”

Several businessmen were shocked.

They suddenly remembered that the beggar-like man seemed to have not only a map of the Mauryan Empire in his hand, but a booklet.

For a moment, they no longer had the heart to stay in the ruined temple.

As businessmen, their sense of smell is keen.

If they miss the map of the Mauryan Empire, they can no longer miss the trafficking of news.

They had to sell this priceless news while everyone knew about it.

As several of them hurried to the port city, what happened in the broken temple quickly began to spread in the port city.

By the end of the night, the large and small forces in the port city already knew that there was a beggar who had run out of the Cangzhou camp with a map.

Almost all the forces in the port city began to send a large number of men to find this beggar.

Three days have passed.

The beggar seemed to have disappeared.

Just when the major forces were about to give up, the Nanguo Chamber of Commerce suddenly issued a shocking news.

Someone commissioned the Southland Chamber of Commerce to sell two maps.

What a map, it goes without saying.

Almost all of them flocked to the Southland Chamber of Commerce.

Two pieces of crumpled paper sold for 200,000 gold coins.

And after the sale is over, many people also know where these two pictures are pointing.

One is called Gem Country, and the other is called Kazuki Island.

Although it is not the well-known map of the Mauryan Dynasty, from the names of these two maps, it can be known that these are two places full of treasures.

Following.

got the great power of Xiangmu Island, organized nearly 100 boats, and slaughtered out of the sea.

Moment.

Everyone in Port City is crazy.

As long as there is a map, you can find huge treasures, and who can sit still.

Just look at the two nouveau riche who are spending a lot of money in the port city to know how rich the wealth is in an unknown place.

For a while, the major forces that did not get the map paid a high price to buy the map.

And in the hidden courtyard in Changle Fang.

Two chests full of gold coins were stacked in front of Su Yijian and Peng Pai.

Peng Pai looked at the golden gold coin, and said with hot eyes: "I didn't expect that two pieces of broken paper could be sold for so much money." ”

Su Yijian said disdainfully: "What broken paper? That's a real treasure map. ”

Peng Pai said suspiciously: "I remember that the writing was all painted by His Majesty in imitation of the description of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", ......"

Su Yijian shook his head slightly, and said in a low voice: "It's different, the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" describes all strange things, but on the maps given by His Majesty, they describe all kinds of priceless treasure maps.

And, after my investigation, it is possible that these maps are all true. ”

Peng Pai's eyes widened in astonishment, and he roared: "Impossible, how can we live on a ball, if we really live on a ball, then why didn't we fall?" ”

Su Yijian shook his head suspiciously: "I don't know, but I once took the map of the Peacock Dynasty and found the two Huanggu, and carefully confirmed it, basically there is no big source." ”

Peng Pai shook his head like a rattle and shouted, "I don't believe it, unless I fall that day, I will never believe that we live on the same ball." ”

Su Yijian glared at him and said in a low voice: "Believe it or not, but don't mess up the errand that Your Majesty has assigned." Your Majesty has said that if we can't sell these maps for a big price, don't go back. ”

Peng Pai restrained his emotions and muttered: "Now that the price of the map outside is getting higher and higher, we should be able to sell it for a big price if we throw all the maps in our hands." ”

Su Yijian glared and said, "Are you stupid?" Do you understand the truth of strange goods? This thing, naturally, is less and more valuable, and if you throw it out all at once, it will be worthless. ”

Peng Pai scratched his head helplessly and said depressedly: "I don't know how to do business......"

"Sell one in three to five days, and hang them for a month."

"We have more than 100,000 maps in our hands, one every three or five days, when will we have to sell them?"

Su Yijian rolled her eyes again, "You won't first pick some small islands that are close to Dayan Country and have a short round-trip distance to sell?" As long as those people see the huge benefits brought by the map, will we still see that the map will not be sold? ”

Peng Pai remembered Su Yijian's words and asked his subordinates to start doing the same.

Maps are sold one by one for three to five days.

And every time the map appears, it will attract a rush from everyone.

The price of the map has also been soaring, with the highest soaring to one million.

With each map sold, a large number of people left the docks by boat in pursuit of a fortune.

Every day, a large number of people leave the port city, but the number of people in the port city not only does not decrease, but is still growing rapidly.

In just one month, the population of the port city has exceeded 300,000 from the original 200,000.

And as the dream of making a fortune continues to spread to the territory of Yan Kingdom, people from all over the country pour into Hong Kong City every day.

Time flies.

Two months passed quietly.

Gradually, some people realized that something was wrong, and they felt that the map was always being sold every three or five days, and it seemed that someone was behind it.

At the moment, the major forces that did not grab the map began to wait and see for a long time.

And the price of maps is also continuing to fall.

When the price of the map fell below a freezing point.

Peng Pai hurriedly found Su Yijian.

"Su Xianggong, it's terrible. Our map is now 10,000 silver coins, and no one asks for it. I'm afraid that someone else discovered that we were behind the scenes. ”

Su Yijian was lying on the recliner basking in the sun, and when he heard Peng Pai's shout, he pursed his mouth and said indifferently: "Do they love it, from tomorrow, the price of each map will be set at one million." Below this price, do not sell. ”

Peng Pai glared at the beads and said, "You are crazy, no one wants 10,000 silver coins, if you set 1 million, then no one will ask for it." ”

Su Yijian looked back, pulled out a fold from under the recliner and threw it to Peng Pai.

"See for yourself."

Peng Paihu opened the fold suspiciously and said, "What news, can you know it earlier than I know?" Our Great Yan Kingdom, except for the news of the water army, the rest of the news will pass through my hands......"

Before he finished speaking, Peng Pai had already seen the content on the fold, and he said in shock: "The news of the real water army ......"

"There are two fleets out of the sea, full loaded!"

"We're rich!"

Peng Pai was overjoyed and exclaimed.

Su Yijian coughed softly and said, "It's not that we are rich, it's Your Majesty who is rich." We're just helping Your Majesty make money. Do you still suspect I'm crazy? ”

Peng Pai's head shook like a rattle.

Immediately, after Peng Pai left the courtyard, he immediately raised the price of the map all the way.

The businessmen felt that this was a marketing ploy, and they disdained to hide in the shadows and watch the show to see if the fool had been fooled.

Seven days later, the first fool appeared.

For a million, he bought a map.

On the eighth day, another fool appeared.

Also for a million, a map was purchased.

The merchants, who were acquainted with these two fools, went to laugh at them that night.

However.

When the sun rose on the ninth day.

The merchants just found out.

They are the real fools.

Twenty ships loaded with spices slowly sailed into the docks.

Everyone in Port City is crazy.

The price of spices has always been high among countries, and some precious spices are comparable to gold.
