According to the monetary system of the Tang Dynasty, ten thousand jin of copper coins were equivalent to ten thousand taels of silver, while ten thousand taels of silver could be exchanged for one thousand taels of gold.

Of course, if ordinary people do this kind of currency exchange, they still have to pay a certain handling fee and the difference in quality. However, for Wu Chengen, who just made a big profit, he naturally would not be so stingy and would care about this a little bit.

So he directly ordered to come with him, and the butler who had just been guarding outside got the matter done. Not long after, Li Anran saw that it should be a staff member similar to the guards' guards, and delivered the best red gold cake to him.

A 100 red gold cake of ten taels per piece was filled with a full 100 pieces of locally placed in a good mahogany box. Even if Li Anran didn't understand this aspect, he could tell that the quality of the gold should be very good.

Based on the measurement units of the Tang Dynasty during this period, one liang is about 40 grams of later generations, and this thousand liang is 40,000 grams of gold.

With the current gold price in modern time and space, and with the fact that this batch of gold has no legal origin, even if it is calculated at a minimum of 200 yuan per gram, it can still be sold for a total price of 8 million.

With this money, Li Anran has the capital to develop in modern time and space.

But this amount of money seems to be a lot, but it is far from enough for Li Anran, who can travel through two time and space and is preparing to focus on the development of the Tang Dynasty.

So after testing the gold, Li Anran said again: "Shopkeeper Wu, I hope you can help you."

"What's the matter, but it's okay to say it."

Wu Chengen, who soon came back to his senses from the shock of the magic weapon before, quickly made a decision in his heart, naturally would not be so stupid as to miss this opportunity to get a relationship that was delivered to him.

"In addition to this gold, I also need some jade, the best jade."

Li Anran, who knows that he can say more and wrong, needs more lies to fulfill a lie, did not explain why he needed it, but just made new requests lightly.

"Jade? The best jade?" Wu Chengen, who was stunned for a moment, said to himself.

Just when Wu Chengen was about to agree, he heard the servant outside the house telling him that the shopkeeper Zheng from Fuji asked for a meeting.

"This evil guest is really an abnormal time!" Wu Chengen, who turned dark, complained in his heart, but could not keep people out, so he had to ask his servants to invite people in.

Seeing that the guy named Zheng came to take advantage of the situation again, Wu Chengen changed his mind and spoke before the person came in:

"I'm not hiding the truth, I'm not very good at Yushi. It just so happened that Manager Zheng is here. He is an expert in this field. Why would you give this matter to him?"

"Oh? It seems that the relationship between Manager Wu and Manager Zheng is really close. Since that's the case, it's just as Manager Wu said." Li Anran, who knew that the other party wanted to be a favor, held back his smile and teased.

"Yes, I have a very close relationship with Manager Zheng." Wu Chengen, who could not see any abnormality on his face, still had a smile on his face, but his heart seemed to be eating a fly.

Soon, the elegant and majestic shopkeeper Zheng Chenggong walked in. Looking at the other party's Yushu's posture, Li Anran always felt that something was missing.

"I heard that the real person has settled in this county, and someone came to congratulate him." After bowing with an impeccable action, Zheng Chenggong said politely.

"It's a good thing that Manager Zheng is here. Just now, there was something to ask for, and Manager Wu recommended you to me. I wonder if..." Li Anran, who was originally kneeling, got up and bowed, and smiled.

"It's okay if you say it's real." Zheng Chenggong had no intention of ruling away at all, who was holding a teacup and sucking there.

"I want to buy some jade, the best jade. I wonder if Manager Zheng can help?" Li Anran smiled without paying attention to the eye contact between the two.

"If the real person wants to buy jade, he should obey his orders, but he doesn't know what the real person has to ask?" Zheng Chenggong, who heard that it was just this matter, agreed readily.

"I need two kinds of jade, one is mutton fat white jade, and the other is jade, which is a jadeite with a green and transparent color. Both of them only need jade materials."

After thinking about the fact that selling gold to raise funds would never be done again, Li Anran had thought about what channels to solve this problem.

There are many extremely valuable items from the time and space of the Tang Dynasty to modern time and space, such as antiques from dynasties that have been older, as well as tonics such as ginseng.

Even if you can get a few squares of sky-high wood such as nanmu, just by replacing the goods, the money you earn will be much more than selling the 1,000 taels of gold.

But from the perspective of source and sales safety, jade is the best choice. Especially jade, modern time and space are popular in gambling stones, which is why Anran Li wants jade materials instead of finished products.

However, jadeite, which became really popular in history, was in the Qing Dynasty. Although it cannot be said that it did not exist in the Tang Dynasty, its fame and value are far less than that of mutton fat white jade.

Of course, in modern time and space, under the same weight and grade, putting aside the artificial hype factors, the value of sheep-referring to white jade is also higher than that of jade.

At first, Li Anran was worried that Zheng Chenggong didn't know what jade was, but he didn't expect that after listening, the other party just asked some questions in the specific price range, and then wrote a letter for Wu Chengen's subordinates to send it back to his home.

I don’t know if it’s because I have sold favors so I might as well sell favors bigger. After Zheng Chenggong sent someone to send a letter, Wu Chengen said with a shy face: “Real person, I wonder if that magic weapon just now can open my eyes again?”

Li Anran naturally would not refuse such things that could consolidate his identity and status. At that moment, Zheng Chenggong took out his copycat phone in his slightly surprised eyes, changed to a fishing boat singing evening and pressed the play button.

When the leisurely piano sounded, Zheng Chenggong couldn't help but stay there. However, he quickly returned to his peace and listened to this mysterious piano piece with peace of mind, at least on the surface.

Li Anran, who originally thought that chatting with these ancients was too tiring, naturally enjoyed being quiet. In addition, it took some time to do jade, so after a fishing boat was sung late, he played three plum blossoms and other famous Guzheng songs such as Liang Zhu.

After the series of classical songs were played, the old housekeeper who had been guarding outside reported that the people from Tongfuji had already sent the things.

With Li Anran's approval, several servants quickly carried several boxes of varying sizes, and two people carried a large box and brought it in.

The box is filled with jade materials of white mutton fat, both of which are not large, and the largest one is about the size of an adult's fist, and the smallest one is only the size of a goose egg. But without exception, they are both excellent materials.

As for the box that was filled with jade, it was a coincidence that the family where Zheng Chenggong was located happened to have certain commercial transactions with the Piao Kingdom, which is later Myanmar.

Although during this period, the value of jade is far less than that of white jade. However, it is better because of its bright colors and richness. In addition to turquoise green, there are also red jade, yellow jade, blue jade, etc., which many people like.

The jadeite in that box is enough, but it is much larger than the white jade in the previous boxes. According to Li Anran's visual observation, it is at least fifty or sixty centimeters tall, and it must be thirty or forty centimeters thick, a large square piece.

The most rare thing is that this piece of jade is green all over. Even if it has not been processed and polished, its crystal clear characteristics can be seen. It is definitely the best.

After seeing this piece of jade, Li Anran was satisfied and regretful. He had known that Zheng Chenggong would be able to take out a piece of jade, and he would not have to work hard on white jade.

Unfortunately, all the words were said, so there was no reason to take them back. Faced with Zheng Chenggong's inquiry, Li Anran's heart was bleeding, but on the surface, he calmly accepted all the jade materials, and did not even pay back the price.
