The four pairs of eyes couldn't help but want to bypass the few people standing in front of them, want to look deep into the cave, and want to see the magical big stone basin in the mouth of the brown witch.
Oh... no, it should be called a clay pot...
Wu Jian from the Mushroom Tribe couldn't see the 'ceramic pot' he wanted to see, and felt a little itchy. She imitated the pronunciation of the brown witch, "Tao... pot," accompanied by gestures in an old voice. After the gestures, she saw that the other party didn't respond, and then looked at the brown witch standing aside.
The brown witch and Chen Chao and the others have been getting along for several days, and maybe they still can't understand each other's words. But because of the high-frequency communication, even if the two parties just make hand gestures or an occasional glance, they can easily understand what the other party wants to express.
So the Brown Witch became the "instant translator" for the Gu Tribe and Chen Chao and others. The people in the Gu Tribe expressed their specific demands to the Brown Witch in the dialect they could understand each other, and the Brown Witch used Chen Chao's language to express their specific demands. Wait for people to express these demands quickly and clearly.
After the two sides made gestures, Chen Chao and the little old man with the horns on his head realized that they were not in a hurry to eat, but to watch the clay pot.
It wasn't that Chen Chao didn't want to understand before, and there were some problems with Gu Wu's pronunciation, so he couldn't understand it for a while.
Seeing that several people from the Mushroom Tribe were anxious to see the pottery pot, Super Chen didn't intend to take advantage of the other party, and directly took them to the place where they were cooking in the cave.
Looking at the stone basin/terracotta pot on the simple stove, the four of them couldn't help but let out a sound of wonder. The rolling snow water entangles the water vapor like clouds and mist, and you don't need to touch it, you can feel the heat on your face.
The four of them couldn't help thinking, did the water in the small stone basin they drank earlier come from here
But in the winter, having a bowl of this kind of hot water to drink is really quite comfortable...
But it doesn't feel like it, because this water smells salty, and the one just now doesn't seem to...
Guwu sniffed carefully again, this smell is so familiar! Yes, it's the smell of saltstone! But there is another strange thing, that is, their salt stone...
Gu Wu thought and thought, sniffed it a few more times, and finally made up his mind. Their salty stone, no off taste and no bitterness!
After confirming that it was a salt stone, Gu Wu grabbed the little old man's arm. This time, the little old man who was looking at what was in the animal skin bag was shocked. The animal skin bag in his hand was loosened, and all the contents inside were spilled into the steaming clay pot. A large part was scattered on the ground.
The middle-aged woman who was following Gu Wu hurriedly bent down to help pick them up. After picking up the ones on the ground, she continued to sigh while looking at the ones that fell into the clay pot. He even tried to reach into the clay pot, but was grabbed back by Chen Chao.
Then she was still a little puzzled, thinking that maybe this kind of big stone basin was very precious, and no one should touch it until the successful transaction with her own tribe.
It took a long time for the little old man with the goat's horns to break free from the clutches of the mushroom witch. He was about to lose his temper when he saw Gu Wu pointing at the clay pot very excitedly.
The little old man was baffled, and the brown witch next to him also didn't understand what the mushroom witch wanted to express. In the end, Gu Wu made a gesture of licking his tongue and fingers, and the little old man thought about salt. 'This mushroom witch doesn't want the salt stones from our tribe, does he? '
The little old man thought for a while, then asked Super Chen again, "She... salt stone... salt..."
That means, she might want our saltstone/salt, should you show her.
Chen Chao nodded, and then the little old man untied the precious animal skin bag from his waist, gently opened it, and put it in front of Gu Wu.
Gu Wu first took a closer look, he was old and his eyes were a bit bad, there was really nothing he could do. But fortunately, the batch of salt that Super Chen got last time was not very white, but it was still much whiter than the untreated salt stone they used directly.
So Guwu saw the contents of the animal skin bag easily, but she was still very puzzled, it was not the same as the salty stone in their tribe.
Then she took the opportunity to sniff it again, and she was quite sure that it was indeed a salt stone!
But... she still wants to taste it, to make sure again.
The little old man also saw what she was thinking, and he gently sent the animal skin bag forward, which meant, 'Try it, I don't mind at all, really! '
Then Gu Wu raised his index finger, dipped it into the animal skin bag, and put it in his mouth, his face was distorted by the shock.
And the little old man on the side saw her action, and his expression immediately became distorted!
Without him, one is salty and the other is angry.
The little old man with the ram's horn was watching carefully just now, and the whole finger of salt, like a boulder falling from the sky, hit the little old man's chest, making him instantly feel out of breath!
'Damn it, it's not something from your tribe, don't you feel bad about it! I am only willing to click and search a little bit every day! The salt you dipped your finger in is enough to feed our tribe for a year! '
Of course, the feelings here have been at least unilaterally magnified by the little old man. But it cannot be denied that this matter really made him feel distressed. Because when he felt that he was the richest, he had never been so extravagant!
Seeing the expression of the little old man with the horns on his head, Gu Wu knew that she had dipped too much just now. She smiled embarrassedly, and then stepped forward to hug the little old man.
little old man...
I am very angry that you eat a lot of salt from our tribe.
Even though you're being friendly to me now, I'm still very angry!
Because you eat a lot of salt from our tribe...
A lot of salt ah woo woo oh...
The brown witch looked at the two of them feeling very strange, isn't it just the salt stone... It's not like their tribe doesn't have...
You Mushroom tribes are short of salty stones and tell us Brown tribes that I bought a lot before and haven’t finished eating them...Tell us so we can exchange them for you hehehe~~~
The mushroom witch uttered the vernacular of 'jiliguala' while making all kinds of strange gestures.
The brown witch saw it, yo, it's time to start talking about business! !
It just so happened that the people in the cave were all idle now, waiting for their meal.
The Brown Witch originally planned to get Super Chen's opinion, pull everyone over, and put on the posture of changing the clay pot before.
But it seems that what Gu Wu wants is not right. She seems to be in no hurry to ask for a pottery pot now, but instead wants a salt stone.
This stumped the Brown Witch. Of course, it was not the expression that stumped him, but the calculation of the commission that stumped him...
He knows how much commission he can get for a clay pot, but he doesn't know if he changes it for a salt stone.
The brown witch scratched his head for a while, but couldn't think of a solution, but since the buyer was on the scene, he couldn't immediately grab the seller to discuss...
Doesn't this expose the fact that he is actually a trustee...
So he had no choice but to comfort himself, it seemed that he could only take one step at a time.
Do things first, and ask later, because this is the only way to do it now!
If they don't give me a commission, I will tell Guwu not to buy them, anyway, I still have some salt stones in my tribe!
Don't be afraid of them reneging on their debts! ~~
After understanding the meaning of the mushroom witch, the brown witch began to translate immediately, 'such a big pottery pot is filled with salt, what can I use to replace it? '
This question was also something that Chen Chao hadn't considered before sending out, because he didn't bring much salt this time, and it wasn't within the scope of the transaction.
After he told the Brown Witch the specific situation, he continued to gesture, "The Mushroom Tribe can also take advantage of the Brown Tribe people to come to our tribe to make trades in autumn, and there may be some salt stone/salt for trade at that time." '
After understanding what Chen Chao meant, Gu Wu thought for a while, but asked her more concerned question, what can I exchange for a clay pot of salt
Chen Chao felt a little helpless about Gu Wu's obsession, so he could only go to the side with the little old man to discuss the specific price.
The official suggested retail price for the last pot of salt is, 'Five men and five women. Reductions are possible where appropriate, this is initial pricing only. 'After all, a clay pot of salt is really a lot, at least enough for a tribe of more than one hundred people to save for a year.
And at that time, specific changes will be made according to the situation. Besides, even if I want so much salt now, I don’t have it~
The pupils of the mushroom witches and brown witches dilated unconsciously when they heard this price, so expensive? !
