The three flags represent Yanjiao, Yanhe Alliance and Changzhou tribe, but there are people from other tribes in the team, such as Hui tribe, Mang tribe, Weiba tribe and so on. They didn't pull the flag, not because they didn't want to pull it, but because they didn't have to. In fact, they also regretted it in their hearts, why didn't they think of getting a totem flag to carry
Temporary production? No, the totem flag must use the most satisfactory materials, and it must be drawn by Wu himself, and that is the totem flag that can represent the tribe. It's a pity that their purpose this time was just to play soy sauce to join in the fun, and they didn't expect to carry the flag at all.
Under the gust of wind, the three totem flags fluttered and the hunting sounded. Approaching closer, the people on the tower can see the pattern on the flag clearly with their eyesight.
The unfortunate long-distance team that was unable to enter the city at the gate just now is no longer slamming the door at the gate of the city. Seeing the unfamiliar and huge team behind them approaching, they directly turned to leave.
Chao Wen stared at the approaching team, and listened to the subordinates beside him whispering coping strategies. One said that he would fight directly, and take advantage of the other party's long-distance fatigue and kill them directly, without giving the other party time to rest. The other suggested negotiating first, and you have to know what the other party's purpose is, and maybe you can negotiate to avoid conflicts.
In the past, Chao Wen preferred the latter strategy. He didn't like to spend his troops fighting, hurting people and money. But since the other party came from the sea, and there are people from Yanjiao, they have to be cautious.
The people around him were arguing fiercely, and Chao Wen was also very irritable, thinking about why he was so unlucky to meet them.
Just as he was thinking, he moved towards Wen's ear and looked somewhere in the air.
A black figure swept across the air, flying straight towards Wen.
Chao Wen smiled happily, raised an arm, and the next moment, the flying figure in the air fell.
It was a black bird, about the size of two slaps. It was like elongated scissors when it flew, and it was slender when it folded its wings. This is a bird used to deliver messages.
Can't wait to untie a small bamboo tube from the bird's leg and pour out a thin strip of cloth inside. The cloth strips inside are made of silk from a vicious beast, which is not easy to wear.
When he saw the cloth strip, Chao Wen was really sure that it was from Wangcheng.
Looking at the words on the cloth strip, Chao Wen's taut skin gradually loosened.
"Father, is it Wangcheng's letter?" Chaochuan, who had already transferred his troops back, ran up to the tower, sweating profusely.
"Yeah." Chao Wen replied absent-mindedly, then carefully read the cloth strip again, heaved a sigh of relief, sighed, and said, "Open the city gate."
"Ah?" Asakawa, who was waiting for the order, was stunned. He thought that a war was about to begin, so why did he open the city gate
Seeing Chao Wen frowning, Chao Chuan knew that his father was dissatisfied again, and hurriedly shouted to the city guards who were waiting for orders below, "Open the city gate!"
The city guards waiting below were also stunned when they waited for such a result. Seeing that Chaochuan was not joking, you looked at me and I looked at you, so they followed the leader and opened the city gate carefully, almost moving the door a little bit, for fear of opening it. As if something would happen soon, he looked from the crack of the open door to the approaching team outside the city.
coax-
Seeing this, the crowd of onlookers who squeezed towards the city gate immediately exploded, shouting, and all retreated to keep a safe distance from the city gate.
The team that came here, only three hundred people entered the city, and the rest did not approach the city gate, but waited outside.
Shao Xuan led Caesar into Chaoqiu City, followed by the others.
In this battle, the city guards didn't even dare to collect the fee to enter the city.
After Shao Xuan entered the city, he did not continue to walk in the king city, but raised his hand and made a gesture to signal others to go shopping.
Chao Wen still stood on the tower and did not go down, because he hadn't figured out how to treat Yan Jiao, and he didn't know what to say. If one accidentally had the opposite effect, it would be troublesome. Therefore, at this time, Chaowen is adopting a strategy of adapting to all changes.
After the people from Yanjiao entered the city, they didn't even want to come over to say hello, but just like other ordinary expedition teams, they entered the city and then went to various destinations to trade. Only Shao Xuan and Mu Cao who entered the city at the front stood at the place where they entered the city. Caesar was lying beside him, staring coldly at the nearby city guards with a pair of wolf eyes.
Shao Xuan glanced at Chao Wen, who was standing on the tower and looking down. The eyes of the two sides met. After a few seconds, they moved away. Without words, both sides understood each other's plans.
Shao Xuanneng could see that Chao Wen didn't want to fight, maybe he had already gotten the news, so he opened the city gate and withdrew half of the city guards.
Chao Wen also sighed in relief, but it's okay, it seems that the other party is really just here to trade, and I hope they leave quickly.
The people who entered the city, because of the language barrier and lack of understanding of the city, were led by people from Changzhou, and they were gearing up for each other. The reason they came directly to Qiucheng instead of going around was actually to buy things! There is still a long way to go from here to Wangcheng. They have to prepare some goods, right? Take a look at the towns of slave owners.
Unfortunately, after entering the city, my expectations were probably too high, and the more I walked in, the more disappointed I became.
Because I am familiar with the trading area of Yanjiao, I didn't feel much shock when I saw Chaoqiucheng at first, but I felt that it was nothing more than that.
As for those exquisite and exquisite things... They look good, and naturally they want to buy them back to pretend, but the price is too high, not affordable, and it is troublesome to carry.
The people who followed have been to the Yanhe trading area many times. Even if they are not proficient in trading, they have a general idea. They have a vague impression of what items are roughly at what prices. But now, they only have one feeling - what is it? !
I used to think that a lot of things were expensive in the trading area of Yanjiao, but now compared to it, Yanjiao is simply a conscientious price! Here, just a small bag of jerky, why is it so expensive? !
However, when they are away from home and come to this unfamiliar place, things can't reach the level they are satisfied with, and there is nothing they can do. Fortunately, they have "money"!
There is a unified currency in the cities under the control of the six nobles, but barter transactions are often carried out, which is convenient enough.
Before coming, people from all tribes had already learned about the prices of goods and the prices of various gems from Changzhou. people can also remind them.
Abuli brought three soldiers from the Yan tribe and followed two people from the long boat to a shop.
This is a shop that sells food, ranging from millet, cakes to meat, and it is also one of the shops that expedition teams often come to.
From the tribe to the caravan, and then to the shops that are now scattered all over the city or in various cities, Abuli has learned about the changes experienced by the tribe here on the road from the Changzhou people. , So, except for a few curious glances at the beginning, I didn't look at the people inside, but focused on the goods in the store.
Someone was carrying boxes in the store. The man heard someone coming and put the box down. Before his squatting body could stand up straight, he caught a glimpse of three pairs of big feet standing at the door of the store.
Having such big feet, although novel, does not frighten them. Different tribes have different styles and characteristics, and they are used to seeing many and all kinds of people. He was surprised that the toes of these three pairs of big feet were rough and wounded, like beggars.
The people in the store thought that they were beggars who couldn't find a place in the city and couldn't even be a slave. They were about to chase people and looked up, eh
Huh? ! !
The people in the store were frozen as if they were looking at the blinding gems that Abuli was wearing around their necks.
The crystal clear and translucent crystals reflect part of the sunlight, and part of it refracts colorful light, which is very dazzling. Each one has a child's arm thick!
The people in the store closed their eyes and opened them again. Not a hallucination!
"You...you..." The words he wanted to say were knotted in shock, and his eyes were straight.
Many long-distance teams do not reveal their wealth, for fear that others will know that they have good things on hand, but now, the people standing in front of the store are full of local tyrants, and they have no idea of restraint at all. Wonderful!
Abu Li ignored the people in the store who were like wooden poles, and looked at the bags of grains of different colors and shapes, and the jerky that was made to be easy to carry on a long journey.
There are many kinds, although the quality is not as good as the products in Yanjiao, but it is better than the variety.
"Tell me, which one to buy?" Abuli asked the two people beside him. He chose to suffer from a difficult disease.
"That." A tribal warrior pointed to a kind of millet nearby. The particles are plump and large enough to look durable.
Abu Li waved his hand, "Buy!"
"That." The person on the other side also pointed to one.
Abuli glanced, "Buy!"
"And this, this one looks good too, hey, that one seems delicious."
"Buy! Buy! Buy!"
Abuli was a rare pride, knowing the value of the crystals he had, so he let go and bought them. He is not afraid of being robbed, there are people behind them, and there are more than 4,000 people waiting outside the city, that is the confidence!
In another shop that sold millet, five shops apart, Gui He turned a leather bag full of gems with one hand, and raised his other hand to point to the shelves in the shop.
"This, this, this, and a row over there, one hundred bags of the same."
"...Ah?" The person in the store was stunned.
"How not?"
"Ah... No, there is!" Seeing Guihe raised his foot to leave, the shop owner hurriedly stopped him. Just kidding, it's rare to encounter a big business, how can you let it go
There are also some people who, looking around, found that there were few people who could make them want to buy, and suddenly fell into the tangled emotion of "we have money, but we don't know what to buy except food".
There are few gems on the mainland here, but they are precious. Why did this result? Why are the two continents so different
The main reason is - nuclear seeds!
The reason why there are few gems here is because of the existence of nuclear seeds. Even though there were many kinds of gems a long time ago, after the emergence of nuclear seeds, gradually, those gems have undergone qualitative changes. , become a metal mine.
Rareness is the most precious thing. When the nobles are attracted to those gems, the value of the gems will also rise, but unfortunately, gems are difficult to find, and high-quality gems are even more difficult to find. Many slave owners also deliberately let their slaves. To dig gems, but in the end, the number of high-quality gems may not be as many as the exhausted slaves.
However, for the tribesmen of another continent, gems, etc., wear a bunch of them and play with them, and when they rise, they can throw a bunch of them and throw them out to return to nature.
Because the nuclear seed did not fall there, all the spar stones exist according to the original natural rules, such as the living places of the Yan tribe, which are rich in spar, and the spar in their hands is more than food.
This is also one of the means for the Changzhou tribe to make a fortune.
Chaoqiucheng people, as well as the local expedition teams, have a deep impression on the Yanjiao team - they are stupid and have a lot of money.
