Martial: I Started The Technological Revolution In Ancient Times

0He reached out and took the luminous pearl. He put it in his hand and looked at it. Then he smiled and said, "This is a real treasure. It can be worn for a lifetime. Is the pavilion master really willing to use this to exchange for that painting?"    0

    

"Of course it's worth it!"    

    

"Is that Xu Beihong dead?"    

    

"Of course it's built there."    

    

"Then this young master feels that it is not worth it."    

    

"Why?"    

    

The eunuch was stunned. He looked at the Night-Luminescent Pearl in his hand and then looked at the calligraphy and painting in front of him. He was somewhat at a loss.    

    

In his opinion, this Night-Luminescent Pearl could only be exchanged for a few hundred gold coins. If he wanted this calligraphy and painting, he would have to add money.    

    

Xiao Yun smiled and said, "Elder, if the painter doesn't die, he can draw a similar painting at any time. Moreover, you don't know how many paintings he will draw in the future, nor do you know if his reputation will change in the future. In other words, there are too many uncertainties in the future. For example, he suddenly had a sudden impulse to draw thousands of paintings in a year. Do you still think that each painting is worth that much money? And also, he was suddenly found out that his name was fake. In fact, he was a big bad guy. Would his paintings still be respected? The shadow of a man's fame tree. As the saying goes, painting relies on one's reputation and reputation, right? Another example would be when one day, His Majesty suddenly dislikes his paintings. In fact, if he were to get tired of it, he might even burn all the paintings that he had hidden. Do you still think that it is necessary to buy his paintings? "    

    

"This..."    

    

The eunuch was stunned.    

    

He did not know how to answer.    

    

Xiao Yun continued, "The so-called painting is actually like a currency. The price that it abides by is... It is an unspoken rule, a consensus among the masses. Simply put, if this thing is marked at a price, someone will buy it if it is released. Then it was worth this price. If it was marked at a price, no one would buy it if it was released. As the saying goes, there is no market for it. Then it was nothing! Many people buy calligraphy and paintings not because they like it. More importantly, this thing is originally worth a lot of money. Today, it's in my hands that it's worth so many days. When I need money one day, I'll sell it. It was also worth so much money, and it took so much effort to save up so many copper coins. I might as well save up some calligraphy and paintings. It's much easier to get them."    

    

"So that's how it is!"    

    

The eunuch thought for a moment. Wasn't that the logic?    

    

Xiao Yun nodded and said, "That is to say, its value depends on how well it is recognized. If the painter dies, it will be much more convenient, but he is not dead. There are too many uncertainties."    

    

"That's right..."    

    

"But the Night Pearl in your hand is different. As far as I know, the Night Pearl in your hand is different. It is an extremely rare object in this world. In fact, most people have never heard of it or seen it before. And anything from beyond the heavens, at least a thousand years... In the long run, only after a hundred thousand years and a million years would the same thing fall to the ground, compared to our generation, or to a dynasty, that is infinite! That is eternal! This kind of non-renewable treasure, isn't it worth more than the calligraphy and painting that are uncertain of the future? This young master does not understand what you all are thinking. Towards that calligraphy and painting, this kind of thing, you all rush like a flock of ducks. It's very strange that you don't pay attention to true treasures."    

    

After Xiao Yun finished speaking, everyone was shocked.    

    

The foreigners on the tall platform were even more furious.    

    

"Hey! You didn't bid all this time, but you are here and you are chiseling our words and severely injuring our Sun Moon Country's literary arena. What is the meaning of this?"    

    

Xiao Yun turned his head and took a look. His gaze was extremely strange, carrying a sense of scrutiny and puzzlement.    

    

That's right, he didn't understand.    

    

"I'm curious. Why do you guys, who came from other countries, dare to speak to a noble of Great Qin like this in the land of Great Qin? Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to get out of this door?"    

    

The foreigner was shocked and said angrily, "You dare?! We are from the Sun Moon Country. If you want to touch me, you don't want to think about the means of the Sun Moon Country! "    

    

Xiao Yun laughed and said, "What? Are you stupid, or am I stupid? First of all, I don't think Sun Moon Country will make a big fuss over you merchants. Even if they do, they will just use you as an excuse to send troops. That is because the Sun Moon Country has already planned to send troops, and an excuse is such a thing. How could they not find an excuse? It was inevitable that they would send troops. Secondly, if I kill you, I will kill you all. If I kill all of you, who will run back to the Sun Moon Country? Tell your king about your death? Unless there is a traitor here who wants to sell his country for glory, then I would like to ask all of you here. Is there one here?"    

    

"No!"    

    

It was unknown which young master took the lead to shout, but in the end, everyone followed suit.    

    

The Sun Moon Country merchants on the high platform were clearly panicking.    

    

Xiao Yun waved his hand in all directions and stood proudly. He said in a clear voice, "Do you see that? This is another result. All of you will die here. I'm afraid that the news of your death will only be sent back to Sun Moon Country a few years later. The Sun Moon Country had no way of knowing when all of you died. You all died on the way here. Or did you die in the capital of Qin Country? What was the reason for your death? Was he dead or not? Did he escape to another place? Had he been taken away by the jackals, tigers, and leopards? Who knew? So you will die once and for all. It is worthless, at most. It's just that the Great Qin Country is short of foreign merchants like you who come here to earn money."    

    

The foreigners were completely stunned.    

    

They opened their mouths, wanting to resist a few words, but no sound came out of their throats.    

    

They were frightened!    

    

In fact, what Xiao Yun said was very difficult to achieve.    

    

There were so many people watching, so many mouths. As the saying went, there was no such thing as not being able to breathe.    

    

Perhaps no one had specifically gone to Sun Moon Country to report this news.    

    

But in the end, it would flow outside and into the city. The merchants from various countries would naturally know about this news, and there was definitely no lack of merchants from Sun Moon Country.    

    

In that case, this news would eventually flow to Sun Moon Country.    

    

Even the details would be clear.    

    

Xiao Yun knew about this kind of thing.    

    

But this group of foreigners could not think of it for a moment!    

    

So they panicked.    

    

The foreigners on the platform just stood there blankly, not knowing what to do.    

    

At this moment, an even more gorgeous foreign person walked onto the platform and suddenly slapped that person's face.    

    

"Get lost! You disappointing thing!"    

    

The man in fine clothes turned around and looked happy. He cupped his hands towards Xiao Yun and said respectfully, "I am Hong Xiluo, the leader of this caravan. I am not good at doing things. My words are too harsh. I have offended this young master. Please don't blame me."    

    

Xiao Yun narrowed his eyes and looked at him. "Hong Xiluo? Hong family of Sun Moon Country? Hehe, even an ignorant person like me has heard of this surname."    

    

Hong Xiluo laughed loudly and said, "It's all because of his praise."    

    

Everyone was shocked once again.    

    

Sun Moon Country's Hong family!    

    

This was truly a world-shaking name.    

    

No matter what aspect it was, their family could be considered a legend.    

    

In the official circles, at the peak of time, there were three ministers!    

    

Furthermore, not only was it a Shuxiang family, but the key was that on the battlefield, there were also two generals who had made outstanding military achievements for Sun Moon Country.    

    

There were also people from the pugilistic world, legends of the current world. The number one sword in the world, Immortal Hong Yuelun, was a disciple of the Hong family.    

    

There were also the merchants who were also quite powerful, not just within the Sun Moon Country. Almost all the surrounding countries were covered by them. Take this caravan as an example. It was specifically used to travel along the Great Qin Country. They would always use a lot of precious treasures to exchange for all kinds of resources in Great Qin Country.    

    

But in Xiao Yun's opinion.    

    

This was more like the plot of an enemy country!    

    

That was why he had said these words earlier.    

    

He knew the value of a work of art.    

    

But there was a prerequisite to the value of a piece of art, which was that it had to be peaceful, and there was a long period of peace between countries.    

    

Moreover, the value of this piece of art was publicly acknowledged by the entire world.    

    

Like now, His Majesty liked it, so it was not a normal business for the people to chase after it.    

    

In other words, Sun Moon Country could use this method to scam a large amount of money from Great Qin Country!    

    

Now that they heard what Xiao Yun said, their desire to buy this painting was significantly reduced.    

    

The person who had previously won a thousand dollars was now filled with regret.    

    

Thus, this transaction came to an abrupt end in this state.    

    

Next, it was the second one.
