Traveling across the heavens starting from the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 4 The first step is to earn 10,000+ times the profit
"What's the difference?"

"Sir, you can choose two pledge methods: large pledge and small pledge."

"Small pledge means that the guest can redeem the item in the future. When redeeming, he only needs to pay some interest to redeem the item. Of course, the price of this kind of pledge is also small, probably less than the pledged item. Fifty percent of the value.”

"A large pledge is equivalent to the customer selling the pledged items to us. The price of the pledge is also high, which is about [-]% to [-]% of the pledged items."

explained.

On the counter, the old man looked at Li Huaian and asked, "I don't know if the guest wants a large pledge or a small pledge. The counter can be used to give the guest an estimate and write down the pledge documents."

"The Big Pledge."

Let Li Huaian choose, of course, the larger pledge with a higher price.

There is no need to redeem this thing.

Furthermore, the purpose of choosing to pledge glass beads at a pawnshop is to be able to exchange the glass beads for money as quickly as possible, so naturally you should choose the one with more money.

"Okay, I'll estimate the price for you now."

Hearing this, the old man smiled, glanced at the glass beads on the counter with a lowered eyebrow, and quoted a price to Li Huaian.

"My guest's glass beads can be pledged for a thousand guan on the counter. I wonder if your guest is satisfied?"

"Satisfied." Li Huaian nodded.

"As long as the guest is satisfied, I will write a pledge document to the guest. Later, the clerk in the warehouse will send the money to the guest to settle the payment and goods." The old man quickly ordered pens, ink, paper and inkstones to be prepared on the cabinet. There will be a while. The money paid.

Both men were satisfied with the pledge.

Both sides thought they were making a lot of money.

The old man who inspected the pian shop thought he had received a rare treasure in the world, so he added a treasure to the pian shop so that he could ask for credit and reward in front of the owner of the house.

Li Huaian believed that a glass bead that only cost one or two yuan in the modern world was worth a thousand yuan in the Tang Dynasty. It was not a huge profit.

After conversion, I am afraid there is a profit difference of 10,000+ times.

When Bai Laoqi, the gatekeeper of the mansion, imagined that he was pawning things, the shouts in the pawn shop, "The coat is torn, eaten by insects and rats," did not ring out in the pawn shops in the world of the Tang Dynasty.

I didn't hear the cry of "broken beads, rotten balls, dull."

The entire staking process went smoothly.

The pawn shop writes the pledge documents, pays the money, and takes away the glass beads.

Li Huaian took the money and left.

The only trouble is that it is a bit difficult for one person to take away a thousand copper coins from the pawn shop. It is too big and heavy.

Calculating the weight of a pound of guan, a thousand guan is enough to weigh a thousand pounds.

The issue is.

In ancient times, copper coins did not always weigh only one pound.

Judging from the weight he weighed with his hands.

Copper coins from the Tang Dynasty usually weighed about five to six kilograms.

In this way, a thousand copper coins from the Tang Dynasty should weigh five to six thousand kilograms.

He alone could not take away all the copper coins.

It is also not possible to directly collect copper coins into the system warehouse.

Even if Li Huaian was not afraid of exposing the secret and directly collected the thousand copper coins in the pawn shop into the system warehouse, the system warehouse still contained a pile of glass products and there was no extra space to store the thousand copper coins.

This made him dislike Datang a little bit.

At least in the Song Dynasty, and in the dynasties after the Song Dynasty, there would be currency similar to banknotes, which was very convenient to carry.

I don’t know if there were no banknotes in the Tang Dynasty. Is it because the paper was expensive that no transaction currency similar to banknotes was developed.

no way.

Li Huaian could only use one thousand coins as temporary pocket money. All the other copper coins were exchanged with silver and gold from the pawn shop, and replaced with dozens of silver and gold cakes of different sizes and weights.

After just redeeming it in this way, the money still weighs dozens of kilograms.

resignedly.

Li Huaian spent another 30 taels of silver to buy a horse, and then left the pawn shop with all the gold and silver.

Leading the horse.

Carrying dozens of kilograms of gold and silver on the horse's back.

Even though these gold and silver have been wrapped very tightly.

When Li Huaian walked on the streets of Chang'an City, he still had an auditory hallucination, as if he could hear the sound of gold and silver on horseback colliding with gold and stone, which made him feel like a child swaggering through the city with a treasure in his arms.

Until I found a secret place.

Li Huaian exchanged the gold and silver on the horse with the glass products in the system warehouse, exchanged the gold and silver on the horse for glass products, and put the gold and silver into the system warehouse, and then he felt completely at ease.

Regarding the safety of those glass items on horseback.

Not worried at all.

These glass products were treasures in Datang. In his eyes, they were just cheap goods. If they were stolen or robbed, they would not feel any heartache.

but.

Although I don’t feel sorry for the glass products carried on the horse’s back.

Li Huaian also felt that it was time to find a place to stay in Chang'an City.

Living in Chang'an is not easy.

This sentence was said by Bai Juyi, and it well describes how difficult it is to live in Chang'an City.

same.

Bai Juyi said this because he personally experienced the difficulties of living in Chang'an City.

Because Bai Juyi served as an official for 18 years, it was not until he was 50 years old that he saved enough money to buy a house of his own in Chang'an City, which was regarded as truly settling in Chang'an City and having a fixed residence.

Life in Chang'an City is indeed difficult for people without financial resources.

But there are exceptions.

That is, Chang'an City is also a paradise for rich people.

In fact, this principle holds true whether it is in ancient times or in modern times. As long as you have enough wealth, there will be a paradise anywhere. Even if it is not a paradise, you can build a paradise.

Like building a modern city in the desert.

Of course.

It is very simple for Li Huaian to settle in Chang'an City, because he is not short of money and can exchange glass products for a lot of wealth at any time.

What's more, we are now in the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, and there are still decades to go before the period of "difficulty in Chang'an" that Bai Juyi said.

At this time, the cost of living in Chang'an City was still very low.

Xinghuafang.

One of the [-] buildings in Chang'an City.

"Langjun, please take a look. This house with two courtyards in Xinghuafang meets your requirements. It is a private house, very quiet, and fully furnished. If Langjun buys it, you can move in at any time."

A dental clerk from a dental shop leaned forward and followed Li Huaian to introduce the house in front of him.

"Yes, how much does this yard cost?"

Li Huaian looked at the house, which was about 400 square meters. The whole house looked very new, and the courtyard was very clean. He had just walked around the house and there were no signs of use on the furniture.The overall situation made him very satisfied.

This house is really good as the first place to stay in Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty world.

"To be honest, sir, this house is slightly more expensive than the market price."

"How to say?"

The Yaxing clerk explained: "This house was originally built by an official for his own residence in order to live in Chang'an City for a long time."

There was a pause.

Immediately afterwards, the dental shop clerk changed the topic.

"I just didn't expect that this official house had just been built and he hadn't lived there for many days before he would be transferred to other state capitals to serve. All other valuables that could be taken away had been taken away. Only this house and the inside of the house were still there. The furniture is inconvenient and cannot be taken away. If there is no other way and there is a transfer from the court, the official would really be reluctant to part with such a good house, so the price is high."

"Stop, just tell me the price." Li Huaian interrupted the dental shop clerk and had to sigh with emotion. Regardless of that era, salespeople were always sharp-tongued and eloquent.

Seeing that Li Huaian was a little impatient.

The tooth shop clerk quickly stopped and replied: "Lang Jun, the price of this house is 480% higher than the houses on the market, and it costs [-] yuan."

The price of even half a glass bead was less than that. Li Huaian had no desire to bargain. He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll give you five hundred guan. You can help me do something for the remaining [-] guan."

"My husband, please give me your instructions." When the clerk of Yaxing heard that the house was closed, he was very happy. He got a commission, and he heard that the husband in front of him was willing to give twenty more coins, even though he had something to ask for. He could do it, but it didn't prevent him from making more money. No matter what it was, he immediately agreed.

For him, twenty guans, not to mention ordering him to do things, would be enough to kill him.

Li Huaian said: "My original household registration was in a village outside Chang'an City. Now that I have purchased a house in Chang'an City, I plan to move to Chang'an City to live. I don't know much about the household registration process in Chang'an City, so I want to Please help me transfer my household registration to Chang'an City."

"It's possible."

The dental shop clerk said with a smile: "I thought that Mr. Lang was going to do something big. It turned out to be a transfer of household registration. This matter is easy to handle. To be honest with Mr. Lang, if it were other things, the dental shop where I was working might not be the same. It can be done, but the transfer of household registration and the paperwork are just a matter of one word with the government."

"The husband can just leave the household registration transfer to the villain, and I will ensure that the guest officer handles it properly."

Li Huaian agreed with the words of the tooth shop clerk. According to the information found in the main world, the tooth shop was a monopoly industry authorized by the government and colluded with the local government.

It must be a very simple matter to apply for a household registration transfer and file the paperwork.

otherwise.

Li Huaian would not be willing to pay an extra twenty dollars to let this tooth shop clerk help.

After all, he was a stranger in the Chang'an City of the Tang Dynasty. He was not familiar with the place. There was no need to cause trouble for himself when he could do things with money.

Money can make Mo Tui ghosts.

For Yaxing, money can help the gods.

It only took an hour.

Li Huaian got the title deed document of the house he bought, and owned a medium-sized house in Xinghuafang, Chang'an City, which was regarded as a fixed residence.

When he returned to the Tang Dynasty from the main world, he had a place to stay in Chang'an City.

At the same time, I also received new household registration documents.

"System, record the coordinates."

"Ding."

"Start recording coordinates."

"The world of the Tang Dynasty, Chang'an City, Xinghuafang..."

"Coordinates recorded successfully."

Li house.

That is the house purchased by Li Huaian.

Inside the study.

Let the system finish recording the coordinates of the Tang Dynasty world.

Li Huaian transferred all the glass products he brought from the main world into the wooden boxes prepared in advance. After locking them, he looked at the sky outside.

Treetops on the moon.

I guess Xinghuafang has been locked.

There was a curfew in Chang'an City during the Tang Dynasty. After each village was locked, people in the village could only move within the village and could not leave the village.

"Forget it, I won't go back to the main world. I'll have a night's rest in Datang World tonight and see what it's like to sleep in a house in Datang World. Then I'll go around Chang'an City tomorrow."

The reason why I didn't live in the Tang Dynasty world before was entirely due to the living environment. Living in a shelter built in the mountains of the Tang Dynasty world was almost like a savage, without any living convenience at all.

In addition, you can travel back and forth between the Tang Dynasty world and the main world at any time.

Who would stay in the mountains of the Tang Dynasty looking for trouble?

It is different now.

The place of residence was changed to Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty world. Although it was not as convenient as the modern world, it still had a different experience. At least he was lying on the bed and smelling the faint fragrance of sandalwood. It was very comfortable to sleep, which was better than what he had in the main world. The bamboo bed at home smells much more comfortable.

early morning.

I had a good dream.

Li Huaian dreamed that he had a large house in the main world. It was bigger than the house in the Tang Dynasty world. It was located in the hinterland of the capital. It covered an area of ​​several thousand square meters and was worth a lot. It was a courtyard house with prosperous mountains and rivers and beautiful scenery. Living a leisurely and carefree life of "a fish tank with a pomegranate tree on the ceiling, a fat man with a fat dog and a fat girl".

No more worrying about money.

No more struggle.

There is also a cute girl with black straight hair and long wavy hair who warms the bed.

However, I woke up because I caught a cold at night and had a stomachache.

It also made him realize for the first time the inconvenience of living in Datang.

There is no paper in the toilet.

Fortunately, Li Huaian brought toilet paper from the main world in advance, otherwise he would have had to use toilet chips to wipe his butt this morning.

It's nothing.

Speaking of which, when he was a child, he used leaves and clods to wipe his buttocks in the wild. In ancient times, it was okay to wipe his buttocks with toilet chips.

However, who would use toilet chips if there was paper?

Chang'an City has two cities, the east and west.

These two cities were places for people to shop and consume in Chang'an City during the Tang Dynasty. As for how to distinguish the difference between the two cities, you only need to remember that the east is rich and the west is rich.

The area around the East Market is mostly where officials and nobles live, and the items sold are naturally valuable items such as luxury goods.

The West Market is mostly a gathering place for Hu merchants from the Western Regions, Persian merchants and overseas purchasing agents. Naturally, most of the products sold are goods that are not available in the Tang Dynasty. It is also a market where merchants from the Tang Dynasty like to gather to look for goods.

Similarly, the West Market is also a gathering place for wealth.

The glass bead that Li Huaian sold was sold in the West Market.

and so.

Li Huaian has no plans to go to West Market today.

I want to go shopping in the East Market to see if I can buy anything good, and take it back to the main world to multiply the original profit difference of 10,000+ times by hundreds of thousands or millions of times.

This was the main purpose of his visit to Chang'an City today.

On the third day of my blogging: Someone posted a comment, I was excited about it, but no one voted for recommendation, I begged for it, and no one read it. I prayed for it, and no one read it. This is the most important data.
