Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, all businessmen who carried out commercial activities had a passport and a business license in their hands. This thing was the festival, and the festival was passed down from ancient times.  The Shan family and the Xun Shan family gave them bamboo joints and asked them to go to Nanqiu. This is something that can prove their identity.

    When Chonghua was in Shouqiu, when buying and selling grain, including some handmade pottery pots, he would write certificates to others. This good habit satisfied the people of the Shang tribe very much, and it was vigorously promoted in Shangqiu. Combined with "festivals", the so-called  "Business License".

    As for the proof written by Chonghua, this kind of thing is called "Qi Ke", which is equivalent to the receipts of later generations, and various sales contracts. If something happens, you can be held accountable. In the Zhou Dynasty, Qi Ke was specially  Used as something like food stamps, it can be directly exchanged for some specific goods on the market.

    And the origin of the word Qi is not Yao's second brother Qi, but from the time when the profession of witchcraft appeared, it refers to the meaning of carving knife and chisel.

    The festival represents your identity, and the deed represents your occupation. The deeds of the merchants are of course all kinds of trading things, and the gang of them have neither festival nor deeds, so they are naturally regarded as  kicked out.

    "Master Zhizong, you don't have any festivals and deeds"

    "This the Emperor of Heaven didn't allow me to wear the knot, saying that he wanted to hide my identity and not expose it. As for the deed, I stopped wearing it a long time ago!"

    Chonghua was furious, who would carry a bunch of receipts with him!  Moreover, the inscriptions of this era are also pieces of bamboo, isn't it heavy to put in your pocket?

    Although Shangqiu is a power in the Central Plains, Chonghua is not a fool. The Four Emperors took him as a target before. Who knows if there are any youngsters among the people coming and going in Shangqiu?

    Perhaps there are no so-so boys in the world, or maybe everyone is so-so.

    Everyone can't enter the Shangqiu market to sell things, and the people of the Shang tribe have changed a lot. The people under Chonghua's rule were all appointed and became the middle-level power of the tribe.

    Chonghua covered the lower half of his face with a sackcloth, which is actually the case for everyone.  He kept sighing, and said to Yu Zai that if he could show his identity, he would have to smile crookedly, and then order a hundred thousand merchants to come and slap him in the face

    Yanzai kindly reminded him that the Shang tribe didn't have 100,000 people.

    Chi Songzi also expressed that he understands Chonghua's mood very well. It is really uncomfortable to be forced and have nowhere to pretend.

    However, even though they were kicked out of Shangqiu, everyone in Yanzai still did not give up. This pile of salt must be sold, but not in exchange for Peng Bei. Dayi's proposal is that salt is a scarce commodity, and the salt from Hedong  Good things that cannot be asked for, even many imperial families can't get them. I came to Shangqiu to change these salts that I can't take away, just to see if I can get some good things by bartering. As for the shellfish

    Everyone has already said that we are not interested in money, and the biggest mistake we have made in our life is to rob Jinyun's small treasury in the Huainan area.

    "Where does your salt come from?"

    Instead of selling inside the Shangqiu market, everyone sold outside, and gradually some people gathered, and because they didn't abide by the market rules, the Shang tribe quickly sent people to come over aggressively to ask for accountability.

    However, they came very quickly, but gradually slowed down when they got here.

    They are using some strange things and placing them in front of the people who buy salt. Some are big and some are small. Occasionally you can hear the sound of how many catties and how many taels.  Happy, everyone is satisfied.

    Dayi proposed to come to Shangqiu to sell goods. The large scales were naturally made on the road, and then brought along with empty carts. As for the small ones, they were carried in the backpack.

    The city management of the Shang tribe dispersed the crowd and said to Yuzai: "Salt sales are not allowed here, and all businesses must be traded in the market. You are not in compliance with the rules."

    "But what you have in your hand, we are very interested."

    So the group of urban management began to ask about the function of the scale in Yu Zai's hand. After fully understanding, their eyes flickered and they left quickly.

    Although Shujun and Yuzai bought some weighing instruments, he hasn't sent those things back to the Central Plains yet, but he worked diligently in the Great Flood Control City. On the contrary, it was Yuzai who formed a group of ten because of the opening of Jinyun's dungeon.  The human team first came to explore the way

    What, only nine people?  But Guzi and Jiaozi add up to one unit.

    "Azai's scales are a good thing. With a standard for weights and measures, everyone will not quarrel with each other because of this, and they can get the balance in the shortest possible time.There are differences, depending on the feeding time, including the different adult weights of different chicken breeds.

    But the problem is not the type and weight of the old hens, but the Kunlun people who sell hens that are less than six catties, and insist on asking others for the price of six catties.

    Yan Zai said that this matter is very easy. The hen is placed on the scale and the weight is quickly obtained.

    The difference is about 2.7 catties, which is about four and a half tins.

    Sure enough, the Kunlun people wanted to defend themselves, Yu Zai hissed at him, and said to the Dongyi people: "I know, someone will definitely ask, how can your standard be right, so it is not correct to be off by four and a half.  "

    "But it is indeed lack of tannium, right? It seems that the hen laid eggs on the way, and I am afraid that you have eaten them."

    The Kunlun man suddenly became dumb, his face turned red, and he couldn't speak any words. Yuzai smiled and said: "How much is missing, then make up for it according to the market price in Shangqiu! It depends on what I do!"

    The people here suddenly realized and laughed.
