The villain is invincible

Chapter 1953 Goods
The purpose is to exchange simple goods with new and foreign merchants here.

There are many tents here, which can give Mai Fan and the others an understanding of the basic supplies and needs here.

Entering here, at least you can know what the people here eat and what they can exchange for what they need.

Because these tents are to be traded at any time, they are basically open.

One or two sat by the mouth of the tent, and the rest of the time they were either dozing or chatting.

No one cares whether the guests here will take a piece or two of products when they pass by, because they have inexplicable confidence in their own strength.

It is precisely because these transactions are open that Mai Fan and the others can see many strange things that they have never seen before.

For example, some inexplicable bones seem to be collected from giant beasts.There are also some unknown medicinal herb stands there, some of which are sold by the catty, while some are placed in small boxes carved with stone or wood, which look very expensive.

Except for these grass roots, bark and bones, these things are basically useless.

Here, the largest transaction volume is probably the real thing.

There are foods that can be stored for a long time, such as some root plants, and grains that look like wheat.

There are also some things that are time-sensitive at first glance, and must be eaten in a short period of time, otherwise they will rot, such as some berries, and some sticky fresh meat.

Seeing that this kind of material can be transported over, it shows that there are many living tribes on the border.

And due to the underdevelopment of labor and manufacturing, they can exchange some basic daily necessities here.

People here cannot use magic, but they can use some basic tools.

However, purely handmade tools sometimes cannot meet the needs of some more delicate life.

Want cheap and fast.For basic living tools, simple bartering with outsiders is the easiest way.

Mai Fan is not interested in the things brought by the people in the fifth district, but he is very interested in the food collected in the sixth sentence.

I will not ask the other party again, but during the transaction, I found that they do not have a common currency here, or that the people here basically do not have a unified common currency.

Therefore, if they want to exchange something, they probably have to take out something that the other party is also interested in.

Since they exchanged things in kind, if they exchanged food with each other, the other party would not be very interested.

So Mai Fan and the others took it out after a few discussions. The most basic thing that will definitely be used here is the knife.

Because it was a tentative transaction, all they took out was a daily-used fruit bone, or a kitchen knife that could be used to divide meat.

Its sharpness is equivalent to a Wang Mazi.

However, after Mai Fan and the others took such an ordinary kitchen knife, they could exchange for a basket of various food samples.

The appearance of the other party's impatient exchange will make Mai Fan and the others have certain doubts about the value of the products they exchanged.

This is not gold and silver in essence. As for stuffing them in for fear of snatching their knives away?
However, it was also because of their extraordinary generosity that the local who successfully traded with them patiently answered Mai Fan's few questions.

"It's impossible to hire warriors. Warriors are scarce items, and no tribe will hand them over to outsiders.

Ah, you said these nuts in your hands, judging whether they are poisonous or not poisonous actually requires experience, but the common fruits basically cover the edible plants in the thorn forest and bushes .

When you are in the wild, you must first find a water source, and there is such food around the water source.

If you want to know the basic map of this area, then you are right about this matter. After all the caravans who come here to do business reach the border, the first thing to do is to buy the most detailed map from me.

The price is not expensive, do you have food here?Or the kitchen knife just now?If there is another one, I will fold some food and give it to you along with the map. "

Regarding the terms of this transaction, Mai Fan and the others did not immediately agree.

Instead, they got together to discuss, and then exchanged for a map for the price of a small fruit knife.

Because to be honest, those foods look like fast-consumables that must be eaten on the same day, and will inevitably rot and deteriorate the next day.

They just need to get the map they want.

After unfolding the map, Mai Fan knew that he should not have any hope for the creative level of primitive humans here.

Because the maps here are basically hand-painted, and the subjective idea of ​​this hand-painted accounted for 80% of the entire map.

It can be seen that the entire area of ​​the sixth district depicted on this animal skin is still very large.

But just the distribution points of the densely packed tribes on the map, and the cluster points where monsters may gather... are as dense as the sesame seeds on a sesame cake.

If the brown fuel he said represented the living tribes of these primitive people, then the red dots marked the areas where dangerous objects might exist, and the two sides of them intersected too closely.

No wonder these tribes are reluctant to loan out their sturdiest warriors.

As far as the interlaced positions of several red and brown dots, Mai Fan suspected that these giant beasts might pass among these primitive tribes when they went out to drink saliva.

The good news is that there are three large, clearly identifiable sources of water on this land.

As long as they encountered these three large water sources on the road, they were basically going in the right direction.

These three major water sources are connected by narrow and long streams that are cut off from time to time due to drought, forming a string of three stars.

That is to say, as long as they walk along the path of the water source, they can reach their destination.

For the sense of direction, if you touch this map, you will not lose money if you buy it.

At the same time, they also figured out why it is said that there are dangers underground.

Because the bones of some creatures and the fossils of bugs they traded here gave the answer to this aspect.

The relative scarcity of the red lands is because they inhabit another tangle of strange creatures deep beneath the surface.

People who live here call them sleeping red nematodes.
