Chapter 83: Stealing Concepts (Happy Second Day)
"Maybe in that small yard." Yoon Eun pointed to the small yard by the river and said, "But we have to be careful, because there may be ambush arranged by the leader in this small yard. It will be bad if our flood rushes to the Dragon King Temple."
Jill and the other two nodded and followed Yoon Eun, while Yoon Eun was constantly scanning around, as if looking for something.
Unfortunately, Yoon Eun didn't find what she was looking for.
When approaching the yard, Yoon Eun and others heard the sound of pots and pans colliding in the yard. It seemed that someone was indeed in the yard, and it seemed that he/she did not notice the arrival of his group.
So Yoon winked at Jill and others, suggesting that they should be careful not to disturb the people in the courtyard.
Jill and the other two understood it and followed Yoon Eun to the door of the small yard with slight help.
It happened that the door was hidden at this time, so Yoon Eun went up and slid it on the crack of the door and found that the yard inside was spotless, but there was no horse that Yoon Eun wanted to see.
Could it be that the horse was locked in the room?
Or is there a horse shed in the blind spot of your own vision?
Yoon Eun frowned, and for a moment he couldn't make up his mind to change what to do. Should he go in and find out first, or should he continue to hold his troops outside?
At this moment, a beautiful figure appeared in Yoon Eun's eyes.
Seeing this, Yoon Eun was stunned at first, and then showed a strange expression.
Seeing this, Liu Xing knew that Yoon Eun had guessed what...
"Yun Eun, what did you see?"
Han Yan, who was beside him, saw Yoon Eun's face strange, so he asked in a low voice with a curious look.
Yoon Eun shook her head and replied softly: "Let's leave here first, the situation here is even more complicated than we imagined."
As he said that, Yoon Eun took Jill and others to the bottom of the old tree not far away.
This old tree can tell at a glance that it is hundreds of years old, so even Yoon Eun and the other two may not be able to pick it up together. Moreover, the vines on this old tree are as thick as Jill's wrists, and after they hang down, they naturally formed rattan chairs.
So Yoon Eun and others sat on the "wicker chair" to rest. After all, they had been walking down the mountain for a long time and had been a little tired.
Secret room time is on.
"Yin Eun, what's going on in that small yard?" Han Yan asked again.
Yoon Eun took a deep breath and said with some laughter and crying: "I don't know if the group leader is planning to play with memes or simply want to make colors. The so-called horse in this module is actually not the 'skinny horse' we imagine, but the legendary Yangzhou horse."
Hearing Yoon Eun say this, Jill and the other two gradually became strange.
In ancient times, because Yangzhou was located at a key node in the canal transport in China, and canal transport was the most important transportation channel in ancient times, almost all high-value goods had to be transported to all directions through Yangzhou, including salt.
Seven things to open the door - firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea.
In ancient China, salt trade was originally a huge profit, so salt merchants were all rich and noble people. Because the salt trade was extremely dependent on the transportation of canals, almost all salt merchants gathered in Yangzhou to live. Yangzhou also became the most prosperous area in ancient China because of salt and other transportation of canals, almost no one.
Confucius once said: Food is nature.
Therefore, the trend of raising "slim horses" in Yangzhou has almost never stopped, and the "slim horses" here certainly refer to concubines specially trained for the rich... Of course, the worse ones will be sold to brothels and Chuguan.
"Simply put, thin horses are human teeth (nominal intermediaries, and actually human traffickers) bought some seven or eight-year-old girls from poor families, and then spent a few years teaching them skills such as piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, etiquette and poetry, so that their level would be improved. When they were fifteen or sixteen years old, they could be sold to those rich as concubines. According to records, the average transaction price of thin horses was about 1,500 taels, and the best of them were even more than 1,000 taels. Therefore, thin horses were in the profit-profit industry at that time." Yin Eun continued: "The rich family smelled of wine and meat, and the road was frozen to death. Although Yangzhou was a wealthy place, the farmers outside Yangzhou city all lived a hard life. Therefore, the girls bought by human teeth were very thin. This is very similar to the fact that someone used to buy thin horses at a low price, and then sold them at the price of good horses to make huge profits. This is why they are called thin horses."
Jill nodded and said with some sigh: "Yes, we were born in a good era; but then again, it is a good thing for us to play the trick of changing concepts. After all, this person is much harder to take away than a horse. Besides, Li Hanxing and others are all modern people like us. It would be okay if they forcibly kidnap a horse and steal a bag of food, but if we were to kidnap a woman, I would definitely not be able to do it anyway."
Han Yan and Katerina on the side both nodded in agreement with Jill's statement.
"Yes, according to the morality of modern people, even if we know that this is just a game, it is impossible to kidnap that woman, because this game is really too real; to be honest, I made up my mind when I went down the mountain and planned to take action directly when I saw the horse, either scare the horse away or kill the horse and bury it. Although our playing style is a little dirty, it is enough to win in the Cthulhu running group game. As a result, the group leader actually prepared such a 'skinny horse'." Yin En shook his head and said.
Han Yan looked at Yoon Eun with an unexpected look and said, "Yong Eun, didn't you say we couldn't do this when you were on the mountain? Why are you?"
Yoon Eun smiled and said seriously: "What I mean just now is that if both of us destroy the other party's props for passing the level, we will only suffer both losses; but when I went down the mountain, I thought about it carefully and found that Li Hanxing and the others had different ideas from us. We were planning to determine the situation of the thin horse in the back mountain before stealing the good seeds. They came directly for the thin horse, so we can solve the thin horse first and let our side be invincible first."
"It seems that the group leader should have thought that we would do this, so he would change the concept so that we could not do it." Jill slapped his thigh and said, "The group leader's move is really wonderful. Even Yoon Eun, you have guessed the idea."
Yoon Eun looked at Jill speechlessly, not knowing whether Jill was praising him or scolding him.
