Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Dou Zhihai is Xiaoxue.

    When the sky and the earth accumulate yin, when it is warm, it becomes rain, and when it is cold, it becomes snow.

    However, the cold weather in the northwest region has no way to stop the enthusiasm of the human race for life.

    ?Everything is waiting to be done.

    "Excuse me, I'm from Shijun State. I heard that you lack skilled livestock workers here. I'm here to work"

    "Isn't this responding to the chief's call?"

    The several strongholds of the Gonggong Kingdom have already been built with a rough outline, and the action is very fast. In fact, it does not take long to build a simple cottage, not to mention the army of the Central Plains.  The large influx of population has brought noise and heat to this cold winter.

    New things are constantly coming in, and road construction is underway to facilitate more exchanges and commerce with other strongholds in the future.

    The market is always the first thing to be developed. On the sixth day after the resumption of production in the Gonggong stronghold, people began to set up street stalls outside the stronghold. Of course, most of the things sold were the only things left at home.  Seeing some chances of survival, the people decided to use those things in their homes that were temporarily unused, but which might be exchanged for goods, and sold them.

    I can't use these things myself, but others may use them, whether it's bartering or giving goods. In short, after these small stalls were established, they quickly formed a scale on the seventh day.

    Bronze wares are already considered valuable items, and the goods looted by the Gonggong Kingdom in the past were basically taken away by the Central Plains people and became part of the public property. After these plundered things disappeared, some of the Gonggong Kingdom  The clansmen who were originally considered to be endowed were instantly poor and white, because most of them followed Gonggong to attack cities and plunder land and robbed a lot of property, and their own family did not have much original savings.

    ?People who sell weapons, sell stone carvings, lose their savings and go bankrupt, and those who have committed war crimes will naturally be sent to labor camps to cultivate public land, and his family members must understand some truths at this time.

    Only what is lost can be gained. The foreign wealth accumulated by a large amount of plundering, when this wealth disappears, all you can rely on is still only what you originally had.

    Some people became cruel, except for their own clothes, they even sold their house, sold the big house, bought a small house, gained excess wealth, and then bought items that were in great demand at this time.

    And those who can't be cruel still keep their houses and only take a little property to find a way to get some pottery for sale.

    In the market, the sale of pottery is always risk-free, but you can't make a lot of money. You can only have a small income and barely make ends meet. In short, you can't starve to death.

    "Sell oracle bones, the best oracle bones for divination!"

    "Old wizard divination, you only need one shell coin to help you divination once!"

    The oracle bones for divination are sold next door, and they are collecting money to help people with divination. It seems that it has become a supply chain and can be seen everywhere. Someone asked the wizard, is your oracle bone divination true?

    The wizard chuckled.

    I, the wizard assistant who followed the Gonggong charge back then, fought against the Rain Master and Thunder God. I am an orthodox wizard of the Gonggong Ministry, can I deceive you in divination?

    One shell coin, one divination, but divination is known to everyone. The ordinary burning of oracle bones for divination can be manipulated by wizards.  Good fortune or specific hexagrams, these still depend on luck and techniques, and the completely uncontrollable divination like Wu Xian's is impossible for ordinary people to learn.

    "Hey, today is auspicious. You will enter the stronghold later, and something good will happen! If something good happens, come back later."

    The old wizard saw off the satisfied customers, and the oracle bone seller asked: "At the beginning, you followed Gong Gong and the Snake Witch, and you were incomparably beautiful, but now you are divination here on the street. How can you have the glory of a wizard?"

    The old wizard sighed: "I thought so too at first, this time for divination, one shellfish coin must be less!"

    "But the economy is not good now. My family is the key target of the attack. All the looted goods have been confiscated. People in the Central Plains said that they will be used in production and construction, and these things will be transported to other places for the circulation of goods, and  When buying construction materials, we don't know where they are shipped, and we dare not ask or say."

    "At that time, I felt that as a wizard, even if I was starved to death, I couldn't accept the wealth of these ordinary people to lower my status. But two days ago, I saw people from the Central Plains, and many people gathered together  , while interacting with a chickOracle divination.  "

    "Many of those people are wizards. I asked, and they told me that it was playing cards and told me the rules"

    "At that time, after I watched the whole game guess what?"

    The oracle bone seller asked curiously, "Is it particularly interesting?"

    The old wizard: "I went up and fought, and I was tortured to the point where I was battered. Looking at those particularly interesting oracle bones, I wondered, the noble divination era of wizards has passed. In the future, setting up stalls and playing cards may also be a way to earn money."  A trade route for wealth."

    "Oh, by the way, the price of your blank oracle bones is too low. How about I sell them for you? Let's split the bill. I'll give you three and you seven?"

    The oracle bone seller was surprised: "Is there such a good thing? You sell it, and I'll see how you sell it."

    The old wizard smiled: "Okay, I will close the stall first."

    The old wizard moved the booth to the back, grabbed a handful of oracle bones, turned sideways, dug two pits, and put the oracle bones in one of the pits. He picked up a piece of oracle bone, carved it with a knife,  The needle drilled out the texture, and then burned it in the flame. After the desired texture was fired, rows of characters were carved out, and some ore was taken out of the pocket to start coloring.

    He repeated the similar and identical work dozens of times.

    The stall owner who sold oracle bones saw that among those oracle bones, ten sets of oracle bones were green in color, ten sets of oracle bones were green in color, and the remaining seven were white.

    After finishing the processing, the old wizard returned to the booth, reopened, and dug some small pits, and put the backs of the oracle bones inside to prevent others from digging them out, and arranged them neatly in five rows and five columns.

    Soon, the second guest who came to fortune-telling arrived. After the old wizard helped him with the fortune-telling, he conducted a science popularization on the auspicious protection of oracle bones. The guest from other places was suspicious.

    "Wearing special oracle bones can ward off evil spirits and prevent disasters, and even bring great luck. Wearing incorrect oracle bones may lead to disasters. Although a person's luck is determined by heaven, it can be changed by divination. I see you from other places.  The stronghold came here, and I was a little confused about the future, why don't you try your luck, I just opened here not long ago, touch these oracle bones, touch these oracle bones, touch it three times and get one free, and three times only need two shellfish coins."

    "Sea shells?"

    "No no no, Taube will do."

    The words of the old wizard moved the migrant worker very much. He took two shells and gave them to the old wizard, and then started to flip through. The first one he found was a white one. He looked at the old wizard, and the old wizard explained,  The white one is flat luck, not winning.

    The man continued to touch the oracle bone, and for the second time, he found a green one. The old wizard congratulated him immediately, saying that he might have a little luck today. The man was very happy and continued to touch. The third one was white.  It's not bad to have a little luck, so I touched it for the last time, and it turned out to be blue.

    In the Great Western Wilderness, the cyan oracle bone symbolizes the divine hexagram.

    The man was overjoyed immediately, and the old wizard also got up to congratulate him. After thanking each other, the man took the blue oracle bone and left, and the old wizard put all the remaining oracle bones back.

    The oracle bone seller was startled: "You, you are lying!"

    The old wizard was not happy: "He is also happy, and I am also happy, and I didn't trick him, so I lied."

    "Isn't fortune-telling just like this? Your stack of oracle bones sells for two shells, and mine only sells for two shells! I told you, you can't make money!"

    Just as he was talking, a man from the Central Plains came suddenly. He saw a seller of oracle bones here, and came to ask for a stack. At this time, the old wizard also came over: "Brother, are you going to buy oracle bones and go back to play cards?"

    The Central Plains man turned his head, saw the old wizard, and said in surprise: "You are the one who lost to our oracle bones two days ago."

    The old wizard nodded, not talking nonsense, his eyes fixed:

    "Brother, do you want a card? The Great Western Wilderness special oracle domino, the blue divine hexagram, I can burn it here."
