There were also people around who noticed the big man who was approaching, and the person who was pushed away wanted to scold him. When he saw the appearance of the other party, he immediately suppressed the words that were about to be spoken.
This person is known to most of the people present. He is a traveling businessman, quite famous, known as "Black Bear", but his appearance is very suitable, especially when he is wearing a thick brown and black animal skin coat, combined with that strong and burly figure, it really is like a black bear crossing the border.
Under the shoving of the surrounding people, the "black bear" walked steadily and steadily, approaching Shao Xuan at an even speed.
Shao Xuan didn't notice the movements of "Black Bear" and Dokang, and his attention was already on the stone in his hand. He knew that some people had been attracted around him, and more than he expected.
Originally, Shao Xuan only wanted to see if he could use stone carving to attract a few tourists who came to see animal skins. Even if he couldn't attract them, after the stone carving was finished, the carved things could be advertised here, and there would always be people. Curious, after all, no one around uses this method.
Shao Xuan's stone carving skills were developed by grinding stone tools. When Lao Ke taught him, the requirements were quite strict, and Shao Xuan would point out the subtle mistakes one by one, and then continue to polish and correct them until there would be no more mistakes.
Since the effect of attracting attention is better than expected, it has to be more serious. The general outline has been formed, Shao Xuan replaced the stone hammer and picked up the knife to continue.
After carving again, Shao Xuan also quickly entered the state.
The sound of Ding Ding disappeared, but everyone had focused on the stone in Shao Xuan's hands. With the flying stone chips, a mountain forest murderer was taking shape.
The traveling merchants have left the hunting life, and it has been passed down from generation to generation. Some traveling merchants no longer have contact with any large beasts and beasts. It is natural to find such a stone sculpture.
"This is a carved giant bear?!" Someone from Yanjiao called out next to Shao Xuan.
The word "giant" was exported, and the force immediately improved. At the same time, it also proved to others that they had indeed hunted a giant bear. How could it be possible to carve such a vivid giant bear before
Although some people have carved on bronze or other utensils, they have never seen such lifelike stone carvings. This stone sculpture is very small, but it can make people feel the fierceness of a fierce giant bear roaring in the deep mountains and forests.
"How to change this stone carving?" Someone asked before the stone carving was finished.
Tribal people generally ask to exchange things directly. Most of the people around here are traveling merchants, and they understand the requirements of the tribal people very well. Some people even directly took out a copper knife and wanted to exchange it.
When the other people saw this, the same thoughtful people also moved, took out a knife slightly larger than the man in front, and went directly to Dokang to discuss.
The people here, with a more flexible mind, can see that the leader of Yanjiao is Duo Kang who is standing next to him. If you want to negotiate, of course, you should go directly to the person with the most power. As for the sculptor, don't you want to listen to the leader
Therefore, people who think they are smart directly target Dokang.
However, the "black bear" who had already walked to Shao Xuan did not speak, and kept his eyes on the stone sculpture that was about to be completed on Shao Xuan's hand.
A stone sculpture can convey the consciousness of the sculptor. Looking closely, "Black Bear" can find that this small stone sculpture conveys a savage and violent aura, which is really like a giant bear waving its giant palms and roaring in the mountains and forests!
If Shao Xuan was carving other beasts at this time, "Black Bear" would not take it so seriously. There was no way, who made him like bears? Their ancestors worshiped bears and the power of bears, but at the same time they also regarded the warriors who hunted bears as "fighters". Now, the tribes have been transformed into caravans, and they rarely have the opportunity to go to the mountains to hunt giant bears. Their persistence is still passed down, the symbol of their caravan is the totem - the bear!
From seeing the stone sculpture formed in Shao Xuan's hand, "Black Bear" couldn't take his eyes off it.
"I want twenty hides." "Black Bear" said.
Compared with other people directly negotiating to buy stone carvings, "Black Bear" is more skillful.
Duo Kang, who was talking nonsense with some people, heard this, and immediately asked people to count the animal skins, and he still chose the kind of high-quality hides. "Black Bear" has a good reputation, no matter what he is in other things. His style, at least in terms of trading, is still very real, and he will not be stingy when it comes to making moves.
There are divided skins and large ones, but generally speaking, don't mention big skins. Basically, it means small pieces of skins that have been divided. The beasts are huge, and a whole piece of skin is too big. , it’s not easy to sell, everyone buys it back to make clothes, and it’s not that big, so there are divided animal skins.
Over time, everyone has also formed a consensus, an inherent specification, and the size of the divided animal skins is also similar, as if a matching quantitative unit system has been formed. When entering the city, the "tolls" handed over to the gatekeeper are each such a unit of cut animal skins.
Twenty pieces of divided animal skins were sorted, and Dokang had them stacked and handed to "Black Bear".
After accepting the animal skins, "Black Bear" looked at Shao Xuan, "Twenty animal skins, how about the stone carvings? I can make up for it on the gold utensils."
The "goldenware" that people here refer to mostly refers to bronzeware, which is also the target of the Yanjiao people.
At this time, the carving on Shao Xuan's hand was just finished.
Hearing the words of "Black Bear", Shao Xuan blew off the stone chips on the stone carving, looked up at "Black Bear", and said calmly, "Thirty pictures."
"Black Bear"'s gaze wandered back and forth between Duo Kang and Shao Xuan, then retracted his gaze and nodded to Shao Xuan: "Okay, another ten... No, twenty more, bear skins are the best, if you don't have bear skins, look for them. Bearskin."
Dokang grinned and motioned to the people behind to sort out another ten.
While others were sorting the animal skins, "Black Bear" got the stone sculpture, looked at it, was very satisfied, carefully put it in a thick fur bag, then pulled the tether of his coat, snorted, and grabbed it with both hands. Wearing the placket, he aggressively opened his heavy coat to Shao Xuan, Duo Kang and the others.
The large and small swords, axes, and other bronze utensils exposed in the coat of "Black Bear", some are inserted on the lining, some are larger such as axes, swords, etc. are inserted in the waist, and some are lighter hanging on the Inside of jacket.
Shao Xuan: "..." There were several "Fuck" in my heart.
No wonder "Black Bear" gave people such a strong sense of heaviness just now, but it turned out to be "heavy"!
With so many things, can it be heavy? This is a "bear", it is simply a humanoid weapon carrying machine!
However, this also proves that "Black Bear" is indeed strong enough to be able to run around with so many things every day and still survive until now, and it is impossible to support it without enough strength.
Duokang's eyes lit up, and he looked at the objects of different colors and sizes, raised his hand and ordered a few, large and small, how many things and quality things can be exchanged for forty pieces of animal skins like that , Dokang knows it all.
When the transaction between the two parties was completed, other people around were also clamoring for a deal. Five or ten pieces of animal skins were bought. With the "black bear" in front, they would not doubt the quality and quality of the animal skins that the Yanjiao people took out. road. Everyone knows that the things bought by "Black Bear" will not be bad, even if they don't know Yanjiao people, but buying with "Black Bear" is definitely right!
They are not as lavish as "Black Bear", but there are so many people that Duokang is already too happy. However, these people no longer want stone carvings.
In one day, nearly half of the animal skins he brought with him have been sold, which makes Duokang very happy. In the past five days, he may not be able to sell so much. Today, it can be done in one day. Sure enough, Elder Shao Xuan has a way.
If they continue at this speed, they will be able to go back in less than ten days.
When huddled in the simple tent to rest at night, Shao Xuan took time to carve another stone sculpture. This time, it was not a giant bear, but another kind of beast.
For the next two days, Shao Xuan will take out a stone sculpture every day. Like the first day, he will give away if he buys more. This is still very attractive to those who want to buy animal skins. Although many people can't buy dozens of animal skins at once, but for the sake of the stone carving, they will also visit the field of Yanjiao. A large number of people who bought animal belts and carried stone carvings included traveling merchants and people sent by slave owners to buy them.
On the fifth day, the animal skins brought by the Yanjiao people were almost sold out. Everyone didn't have to keep staring at the goods. After changing the copper weapons and food, they each took what they got and got together to communicate. People who see the Taihe tribe are quite envious. This time, because of some rare medicinal herbs they brought over, they have already made them sell things much faster than before, but no one expected that there would be a Shao Xuan on the Yanjiao side!
There is no big order, and Shao Xuan no longer carves. Seeing that there are not many things to sell here, he took out his own stones. For this reason, he had someone help to look at them yesterday, so that these stones were all photographed. The sun all day, and now just get to a slightly darker spot to see the obvious light coming from the stone.
In the past few days, more and more tribal people have come to Anba City, and there are voices all around, shouting and arguing, all of which are louder and louder. From time to time, you can see people being beaten up.
Shao Xuan did not compare his voice with them, but made a wooden sign with bright plant pigments written on it - "A rare and precious thing that glows with new water - Shuiri Stone".
The spar of the Empress Tribe was produced when the moon was full, and it was called Shuiyueshi, and the one Shao Xuan made had to absorb sunlight, so he changed "month" to "sun".
The wooden sign is supported by a long pole and inserted next to it, and there is no need to shout, just waiting for someone to come to the door. The wooden sign Shao Xuan asked people to turn it every once in a while and change the direction, so that people in other directions could also see the words on the wooden sign.
New things are always full of attraction. Just now, there were still people from the tribe who were glad that Yanjiao was finally deserted. Unexpectedly, it took a long time to see a large number of people rushing towards Yanjiao.
There is no way, it is really too eye-catching the sign up there.
