Mountain and Sea Salesman

Mountain and sea salesman Their cargo baskets contained things that can only be found in the "Book of Mountains and Seas" - eating grass that makes you forget your worries, drinking dew that makes you understand the songs of birds, and looking in a mirror that makes you see the truth. Every piece of goods comes from the ancient mountains and seas, carrying the power of gods and beasts left behind in the world. But they are not selling, they are "exchanging". Shanhai Merchant does not charge money, only "stories". The most precious memory, the deepest emotion, the most secretive secret in your life - these are the currencies that the salesman wants. It is said that when Dayu was controlling floods, he traveled all over Jiuzhou and saw countless strange objects and beasts. He recorded these things into a book, which was the prototype of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas". But he also did one more thing: wherever he went, he would use the small objects he carried with him to exchange stories with the local people. The suffering of the victims, the reverence of the mountain people for the mythical beasts, and the prayers of the people near the water to the Dragon King... These stories were collected by Dayu and became his key to understanding the world and finally quelling the flood. Among Dayu's entourage, there was a person who specially picked up goods and burdens for him. This man was the first "Shanhai Merchant".
