The sky is cloudy and the wind is cold.冰 @ 火! 中文. Looking up, the whole sky looks like a piece of turbid jade with filaments of cloud cotton. It is gray and not very good, but it is undoubtedly better than the raging weather of a few days ago. many.
Looking down, the sight is full of plains, hills and mountains. It looks magnificent, but it is also desolate and monotonous.
Strictly speaking, there is no real path to the North Famine. Of course, it can also be said to be everywhere. Without him, more people would walk, and the smooth road would naturally come out.
Now between the low and undulating mounds, a convoy is traveling along the road that the predecessors stepped on, because the snow was just muddy and the road was a bit slow because of the fresh snow.
The carriages are all flat, not for rest, but for goods wrapped in tarpaulins. The dozens of barbarians around were all walking, and the animal skins on their bodies were neither luxurious nor sloppy, and they were ordinary and ordinary. In appearance, this is undoubtedly a small caravan.
Yes, just like Bran, there are caravans on the North Wild Tribe side. However, compared to the Bran Caravan with a fixed destination, route, and so on, the freedom of the North Wild Caravan is much higher. Of course, this is also the reason that the tribes of the various tribes migrate year round, so the North Wild Caravan basically went out for a walk and only returned after the goods were sold.
There were three people in front of the team, two women and one man, all looking very young. At this time, the burly, standard-looking young man looked at the surrounding environment and said, "Head, go ahead to the Hufu tribe. Well, this tribe has a good gathering place and should not move away. . "
Called the head of the caravan is the woman walking in the middle, dressed in gray fox fur, half face blocked by a fur collar. Beihuang people are generally tall, and women are no exception. The young woman's body is very tall, and the two are more slender. They are taller than Xia Wei'an, but they are still much shorter than other men and women in the caravan.
The woman didn't answer the young man's words. At this moment, she was putting a green leafy plant with red berries in front of her eyes. She looked very engaged but didn't eat it. Instead, another young woman in a red dress beside her heard the words and smiled, "Brother Andre, have you been to this tribe?"
The young man, who was called Andre, was not surprised by the attitude of the commander, and seemed to be accustomed to it. He laughed, "Yes, Sini. But that was three years ago, when I was still in the army, at This will take a few days. "
"Oh ... Big brother Andre was still in the army, was that Bran slightly? What happened there? I heard Bran people are very short, but there are many beautiful clothes ..."
"Bran ... Heh, that's pretty much it ..."
...
Talking and laughing, the woman named Xini seemed interested in Bran and kept asking. Of course, if you look at the glance from time to time, you can know that she is more interested in this majestic Andre.
To be sure, both men were from the North, but they used extremely standard Bran discourse when they talked. Perhaps from this point, it can be seen that this caravan is not so simple ... Well, if you look at the head of the team, this caravan is still a bit abnormal. The destination was imminent. At this time, she was still observing the berry plant, her eyes narrowed, as if she was doing some research.
The convoy marched again for more than ten minutes, crossing the undulating mountains in front of it, and there was an artificial stone wall that stretched for several miles on the left side, and a tall lookout wooden tower, looming. Needless to say, this should be the Hufu tribe in Andre's mouth.
At this point, the woman, called the head of the group, finally finished her research, sighed, reached out to pick up a few red berries from the leafy plant, threw it into her mouth, and handed the rest to Andrea and Xini next to her. .
"Well, sweet and sour, it tastes good." After taking a few sips, Xini's slender eyebrows were suddenly raised, and her face was a little happy. Andrea on the side seemed much calmer, pursed his lips and smiled. In his opinion, this thing is naturally refreshing without large pieces of meat.
"Hehe, snacks, I'll give it to you." He smiled slightly, his voice hoarse. The head of the group simply put a few berries in his hand into Xini's hands, and threw away the green leaf plant that had been attached great importance to.
Cheering took it, "Hee hee, thank you Dian ... Well, Lord Head." It seems that something was wrong, Xini quickly changed his tongue and spit out his tongue, please, "Master, have you studied the results? ? "
He shook his head, "How can it not be so easy." The head looked a little regretfully. "Although I haven't seen it before, this should be just ordinary berries. At most, it can only be served as a snack, not a substitute for food." After a meal, I shrugged my shoulders and said cheerfully, "However, the decision made this time is right. There is so much North shortage, there are thousands of plants we don't know, and we can always find a suitable soil here and plant it in large areas. food."
There is nothing strange about this discourse. At first glance, it is simply that this kind of berries is not suitable for large-scale cultivation. However, if combined with the actual situation of the Beihuang tribe, it would be a bit verbose.
Everyone knows that the soil on the north side is not suitable for planting crops, and the food crisis has troubled all tribe barbarians all year round. It is precisely because of this that the Northern Wild Tribe madly plunders Bran's borderline during the autumn harvest each year. However, the head of this small business group and the apparently young woman actually said that she wanted to find suitable crops on this frozen soil, and her tone was indeed not ordinary.
However, after hearing the words, Xini and Andrey really looked at each other, both nodded firmly, apparently holding strong confidence in the young head.
"Well, where is this?" Because of the previous focused research, the head of the squint squinted to look at the surrounding environment, especially the stone wall on the left side in front, and asked in confusion.
Andre said again, "Head, this is the Hu Fu tribe."
"Oh ..." It seemed that the name of the place had been heard, and the head of the group showed a stunned look, and then looked around the tribe. Surrounded by mountains on three sides, the terrain is gentle. There is no need to worry about natural disasters such as hurricanes coming directly, and transportation is convenient. Nodded, "The terrain here is really good, no wonder the Hu Fu tribe does not move all year round ... well, suitable for building a city. Sini, write down here."
"Okay." Xini nodded her head and pulled out a thick pamphlet from the bag. Looking through it, you can see that there are all kinds of miscellaneous things recorded in it. There are mountains and waters, terrain, and animals and plants ... A Northern Wilderness Encyclopedia.
After Xini added a sum, the head nodded, and first instructed the others to lift the tarpaulin on the carriage, and then stepped towards the stone wall: "Go, let's go and see."
"Uh ..." Sini and Andrey looked at each other behind, all staying where they were. Immediately, Xini raised her forehead, with a "sure enough" expression, calling out, "Head of the group ..."
Looking back, "Well?"
To the left of Sini's finger, there was clearly an entrance: "That, the entrance is there!"
"..."
...
Something went wrong, but the problem was small. Hu Fu tribe's entrance is also guarded by barbarians, but that's basically just a look. It is mainly targeted at other tribes that may exist. Naturally, this dozens of small caravans don't care.
In the tribe, this small caravan is quite popular. This is also a normal situation. After all, although there is a caravan in Beihuang, the number is definitely not too much because of the lack of houses. The so-called scarcity of things is such a reason.
Finding an open space, this small caravan is also very serious about putting away the goods. Most of the crowds who immediately came around shook their heads and sighed, but the children's screams and cheers flew up and down, and some were noisy for sale.
The reason for this situation is very simple. The degree of freedom of the North Wild Caravan is too high. If a barbarian wants to buy something, he can only wait for the wandering caravan to pass here, and also the items sold by the caravan. This is what they need to succeed. Now, this small caravan is full of toys, all kinds of children's toys ...
It can't be said that this kind of secluded business idea doesn't work. Barbarians and children are also children. If there are conditions, they will naturally buy these toys. But it is clear that these things are certainly not as good as everyday items.
The crowd gradually dispersed, and there were also some adult barbarians who accidentally brought their children. In the noise of their children, they scratched their heads and smiled and talked about the price ... The young head was behind the stand with Xini, smiling, but it was It's very easy to talk, as long as it is not excessive bargaining, basically it will be agreed after touching the child's head.
Within a short while, more than a dozen transactions were negotiated. By this time, the surrounding group was basically all dispersed, and then there was waiting at the stand. It's very simple. Children who run away with cheers and toys will definitely show up with their peers. Naturally, there will be adults who can't bear it, and they will bring the children.
Shaking her head, Xini's mouth slightly froze: "Head, if we sell some pots of grain, we can sell them well."
"Well." A random reply, the head of the group was staring at the child who was not far from the right side of the stall, apparently absent-minded.
Seeing dissatisfaction, Xini exclaimed: "The leader ..." The relationship between the two is a bit subtle. Judging from some casual gestures, the status of the leader is obviously higher than that of Xini and the caravan. However, the young lady's head is very kind and speaks well. There is no awe and separation between ordinary acquaintances such as Xini.
When he beckoned, the head did not answer Xini's question first, but stepped forward to call the child closer. The hoarse voice said, "Want to buy a toy?"
He nodded, and then quickly shook his head. The shabby child glanced at all kinds of toys, and then shook his head again.
"Hehe ..." He laughed a few times, stretched out his hand and brushed away the debris from the child's hair, and the head blinked mysteriously and laughed, "If you can gather your sister within an hour, what do you think is the most Beautiful flowers, my sister will surprise you. Okay? "
The child heard the words and looked up at the younger sister in doubt. After considering it, he nodded hard: "Okay!"
"Well, then we'll make an agreement, remember to keep it secret!" Patted the child's shoulder, and the head walked back to the stall with a smile. The child ran northwards without looking back.
Seems to be thinking of the previous question, the head of the team sighed to Xini helplessly: "You have asked this question several times ... Well, only by selling these toys, we can go further in the form of a caravan. And , Don't you think it's satisfying to bring joy to your children? "
"I'm just bored and want to talk ... and I don't see how far I can go like this." Sini Jiao, who was explained again, hugged the leader's right arm, and then watched the child disappear into the far corner. Asked, wondering, "Head, since they are all going to be delivered, why not give them directly? You don't like flowers."
"Because we are businessmen." Being hugged by a woman about ten centimeters like a koala bear, the scene was obviously a little discordant, but the head did not break away, calmly said, "Since it is a business man, then naturally you have to wait If you have the money, you can buy the goods directly. If you have no money, you must pay to get the goods. "
He paused, and then said, "Fair, this is the most important thing in commercial circulation. It is because of the lack of this thing that business has not been able to develop. For so many years, we have been used to snatching. People. Now we can rob Bran, can we still rob our own in the future? "
"Oh ..." Xini nodded, seemingly incomprehensible, and although there was some cloud cover, she had almost blind faith in the person around her, so she no longer thought about it.
...
Soon, Andre, who had disappeared when the trade fair stall was set up, suddenly popped out, looked around his eyes, and came over: "Oh, leader, how is your business?"
"not bad."
"Hey, brother Andrea, don't sell offense, hurry up and talk about what you asked."
Nodding his head, Andre glanced at the calm head of the regimental and said, "The Hu Fu tribe is basically the same as the ordinary tribe. It depends on hunting for their livelihood. But there is an iron mine on the east side of the tribe. The gains are small and even dead. Over time, they are almost deserted. "
"Is there an iron ore?" The head of the group raised his eyebrows and groaned slightly. Before waiting for Xini to open the book, he said directly, "The Massa tribe people who are hundreds of miles away know how to mine, well, east. The Tiger tribe has simple blacksmith skills ... "
But in an instant, tell all the relevant situations accurately, and then connect them one by one to form a complete self-sufficient chain. Finally, he turned around and said, "Sini, have you made a note? Remember to remind me when you go back."
"Relax, head." The quill took notes and made a gesture.
Nodded his head, and then the head was habitually in deep thought, asking questions like
how are the relations between these tribes
and
smooth and smooth roads…
without waiting for André and others to answer , And he gave the answer again.
Like a computer for precise calculation, as long as the information is sufficient, it can quickly deal with all kinds of problems. Ten minutes later, I rubbed my eyebrows, sighed with relief, and looked relaxed.
At this time, the child came up with a bunch of colorful wild flowers before, and the young head looked forward gladly to receive the flowers, and let the child choose any one of the many toys and left happily.
Although he didn't say it, Andrei and Xini, who knew the commander's ability, looked at each other, nodded, and knew that the plan was a success.
After waiting for about half an hour again, a few more transactions were made, and the staff of the business group used up their lunch and set off again from the north gate of the tribe.
After leaving the tribe, Andre patted his head, as if remembering something, and said again: "Yes, remember the tribe we met yesterday? They said that the women who had the temple of light robbed them of their food."
"Well, remember." Xini nodded immediately when she heard the words. "We were still joking. How could there be people from the Temple of Light coming here? Besides, grab food? Oh, the self-proclaimed holiness is actually extremely hypocritical. People, don't be so sloppy. "
Shaking his head, Andrea looked solemnly: "No, it seems to be true. When I heard about the news of the Hu Fu tribe, I heard that it was still grabbing food, but this time the other party was very fast, only to see it was a Woman, um, Bran. "
"Uh……"
Frowning, the young head asked, "When?"
"Just this morning."
He nodded thoughtfully, watching the distant mountains decisively ordered: "Stop going! Andre, send a few people to look forward."
"Yes!" Andrei heard the words without hesitation, and resolutely turned around to turn around to convey the order.
Like tearing up the camouflage, before that, the atmosphere of the friendly business group was instantly condensed, and several figures quickly left the range of the business group. After flashing a few times, they quickly disappeared into the sight of everyone.
There is no doubt that these people are not ordinary businessmen at all, but are good masters of the Northern Wilderness ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Nissini turned back and asked, "winner, you Also think that the woman belongs to the Temple of Light? This is too incredible! "
The head of the delegation gave a slight nodding: "The ability to freely enter and exit several tribes without being stopped means that the other party's strength is very high. And if this is a man from the North, he only needs to show his identity to get good hospitality. You need to grab it. Well, it should be someone from the Temple of Light. "
"Really?" Sini whispered. "This woman is so brave? Are you afraid to come back if you dare to come here?"
"Actually ..." Andrei walked back after giving the order, his eyes flashed, and he said firmly, "She can't go back now!"
"Uh, this is ..."
The head of the group did not participate in the conversation between the two, but turned to look at the south, frowning slightly. People from the Temple of Light appear here, is there a problem in the battle ahead ...
