Chapter 2485: Equal Exchange of Ambergris Mountain

The native leader had another delicious meal. He smiled and found Li Yi: "Thank you, Tang people. Do you have any other good things?"

Li Yi looked at his roll first. It was the same as the other person's. He put it aside casually, with the roll facing himself: "There will be more good things in the future. Do you want to drink?"

"Wine?" The natives were unfamiliar. What is wine?

"Two packs of beer, two-liter cups." Li Yi ordered the little robot.

The little robot went to get beer and came back soon.

Li Yi took a sip first: "Try it. This kind of wine is more expensive. A cup of wine can be exchanged for a cup of myrrh and frankincense."

Li Yi was sure that the other party had never drunk wine. The White-clothed Arabs did not drink wine now. It was impossible for the Indians to run so far with wine.

The native leader knew how to observe first. The color of the thing called wine was a bit like... light dragon blood and myrrh.

There were a lot of white things on it, like waves.

He took a sip like Li Yi and frowned. Why was it a bit sweet and a bit bitter?

Uh! He burped and suddenly felt a little confused. It was his first time drinking, and the beer in Lijiazhuang had a high alcohol content.

Then he felt comfortable, and he didn't know why he felt comfortable, inexplicably.

Li Yi took another sip and ate a burrito...

The leader blinked and followed suit. He drank three sips of beer in a row. After about three or two sips, he smiled. This smile was very relaxing.

"Drunk?" Princess Yongmu looked at the position of the beer in the glass and drank a little.

"He has never drunk it before, just drink it all the time in the future." Li Yi said as he pushed the glass in front of Princess Yongmu.

Princess Yongmu took a big sip and gave it to Xiaolan. Xiaolan also drank a part in one gulp and continued to eat the burrito.

The leader was surprised. He looked at his own cup, gritted his teeth, and took a big sip.

"Let others try it." Li Yi quickly stopped, you can't drink anymore, what if you drink too much and suddenly want to rob my yacht?

"Yes, yes." The leader's eyelids began to droop, and he turned back and shouted, and someone ran over.

"Take a sip." He ordered, and the other party took a big sip from the cup.

The leader continued to call people, and soon, two liters of beer were drunk.

The eight natives, including him, all looked relaxed, and walked a little crookedly. There was nothing they could do, they could only drink so much.

It felt like they were not drinking beer, but liquor.

The leader walked away with the Yin-Yang Bagua steps, and after a while, he came back with a basket made of branches.

He put the small basket on the table and said, "Exchange."

Li Yi waved his hand: "This time I come to treat you to a drink, free of charge. You need to give me a few places, and I will build a dock for my boat to dock.

Don't drink too much alcohol, it will delay things and hurt your body. Let's drink when it gets dark again.

You are in the best condition now, and you will fall down if you continue to drink."

Li Yi refused to give the wine, let alone exchange with the other party.

He wanted a place, the island belonged to the natives, and the natives would not help build the dock if they didn't agree.

The dock had to be piled and wooden planks were erected, extending into the deep sea, and the ships would dock next to it, and there was no need to use a speedboat to transport goods.

After Li Yi finished speaking, he took a glass of beer and put it there, telling the leader that the beer belonged to them.

"Jian, choose any place you want." The leader saw the beer and heard that he didn't need to change it, so he agreed in a daze.

In Lijiazhuangzi, Luoyang, people got off work one after another, took out their meals and sat in front of the big screen outside to watch and eat.

Bi Gou was about to go to bed, and took a last look, just in time to see Li Yi solve the dock problem with a glass of beer.

"The fleet in the back row should bring saltpeter and wine, yellow wine is fine, white wine... I guess something will happen."

Bi Gou imagined the scene after the natives drank white wine, which was quite terrifying.

Zhang Jiuling also strolled over to take a look: "One-to-one exchange, did we get the advantage?"

He didn't know the value of those things. There were uses in the medical books copied by Li Yi, including ambergris.

Before Li Yi copied the medical books, ambergris was always used as the raw material for making incense.

Only after he had the medical books did he know that it was medicine, and the Tang Dynasty immediately restricted it, forbidding it to be used to make incense, except for the palace's own.

Li Yi used it to make perfume, and sold the rest to the pharmacy.

"It won't lose money. Beer doesn't use as much grain as liquor. Put aside the technical cost, based on the material calculation, a cup of frankincense and myrrh can make a profit if it is worth 300 coins, and there are also transportation costs."

Bi Gou added a bunch of costs and gave a price of 300 coins.

The price he gave was similar to the price of imports when Li Yi was young. One kilogram of myrrh and frankincense was equivalent to 70 or 80 yuan in his money at that time.

Due to the increase in transportation costs, it will be several times more. 300 coins in Tang Dynasty currency is reasonable.

"Hard and soft work makes people feel at ease." Zhang Jiuling wanted to ask Li Yi, but held back.

…

On the island, they had barbecue in the middle of the night. Li Yi took out 100 liters of beer for the natives to drink.

Everyone controlled the amount, and Li Yi didn't allow them to drink too much, because…

The next morning, the natives got up to help build the dock. Beer can't be drunk for free, it's so comfortable.

Seeing that it was precious, the people of Tang Dynasty were reluctant to drink it.

How could the natives know that the Yulin Flying Cavalry dared not touch the alcohol on the island to deal with problems that might arise at any time.

After the yacht entered the sea, UU reading www.uukanshu.net They each drank at least three taels of white wine. What's so good about beer? It's like water.

Li Yi found the native leader again, showed him the ambergris he had collected, and asked if he had any.

The leader nodded vigorously, yes, he shouted for people to carry it.

The white-robed Arabs came and saw this thing, willing to exchange it, and offered a low price.

The people on the island saw it on the beach and collected it. The white-robed Arabs had not come for a while.

So Li Yi saw a pile of ambergris, looking at the amount, he estimated that it could exceed ten tons.

He collected more than 400 kilograms of ambergris himself, and calculated what to do with it when he returned.

It can be used for a long time, the best ones are given to the pharmacy, and the rest he will extract, use as a fixative and make burning spices.

Burning spices is also a kind of medicine. If the sleep quality is not good and the baby cries at night, burn a little, the fragrance is in the house, and you can sleep well, and then cooperate with other methods of treatment.

"It is really a magical island! It's a pity that Yemen occupies the location and is so poor, alas!"

Li Yi muttered, this island belonged to a very poor country at that time.

That country is in constant turmoil. A country that has oil and tourism... My country at that time is better.

Princess Yongmu didn't hear what Li Yi said clearly. She and Xiaolan were staring at Ambergris Mountain with little stars in their eyes like Kaiyuan Tongbao.

"Here, you are a good friend." The native leader generously gave it all away.

He thought that this thing was useless. It would always float over from the sea. People invited him to drink and gave him salt in exchange for good things to make clothes.

I can't be stingy. I will have to drink in the future.

Li Yi shook his head: "Let's solve the most basic needs of life. I will give you 20 large iron pots and the same weight of refined salt. Before leaving, I will try to take you to catch and cook fish as much as possible."
