The old woman stepped forward, crossed her hands in front of her chest, bowed and saluted, saying: "Dear guests, the people of our Gongyang tribe did not know the rules and neglected you.

Please forgive Tatu's rudeness, distinguished guests, and go to our ram tribe to rest for a while."

When the others heard their witch say this, they followed suit and bowed in the same way.

Everyone in the Lin family hurriedly followed their example and returned the greeting.

I didn't expect that even if they were not in the grocery store, they could understand what these people said.

Everyone was very happy because they no longer had to stay in the car to communicate with others.

As long as you're not too far away from their carriage, this automatic translation function should be useful.

I'll give it a try later.

Lin Heng stepped forward and said, "Dear Sir, what is your name?"

The old woman returned the greeting and said, "Just call me Sangji."

"Grandma Sangji!" Tatu shouted anxiously behind him. He didn't expect that Grandma Sangji would let these people call her by her name directly.

The old woman gave Tatu a reassuring look, telling him not to worry.

Lin Heng was not arrogant and just called the man Sang Ji.

It was obvious at first glance that the old woman had a high prestige in the tribe, so he followed Tatu's lead and called her Grandma Sangji.

"Grandma Sangji, we are grassland merchants from the Central Plains. We run a grassland grocery store. We sell salt, tea, silk, porcelain and other things from our Central Plains. I wonder if your tribe needs anything."

When Sangji heard that these people were from Central Plains, he was very surprised. Central Plains was so far away from them, how did these people get here?

There are many ferocious animals on the grassland, but these people, carrying the old and the young, look unharmed.

Their skin is also delicate and fair, without the red faces of the grassland people.

And can their carriage accommodate so many people?

Can you still put cargo?

But no matter how unreasonable it is, the appearance of these people around their tribe is a gift from God to their tribe.

You have to know that their tribe is a small tribe with only a hundred people.

They didn't have enough salt, so their warriors didn't have enough strength to resist the attacks of other tribes.

A few days ago, the Babik tribe had issued a final declaration of war to their tribe.

If their tribe did not surrender by offering cattle, sheep and women, they would attack their ram tribe.

At that time, not only will they lose their cattle, sheep and women, but the men, the elderly and children will also be killed by the Babik tribe or taken as the lowest slaves.

By then, their ram tribe will completely disappear from the grassland.

Now that these people from the Central Plains have salt, they must try their best to exchange more with them.

The warriors gained strength after eating the salt, so they still had a slight chance of winning the battle against the Babek tribe.

Even for such a tiny possibility, they must treat these people from the Central Plains well.

"Dear guest, we would like to exchange cattle and sheep for salt. Is that okay with you?"

Lin Heng said: "Of course."

"I wonder how much salt you have here? How would you like to exchange it?"

At this time, Lin Yi took out some more chairs.

Lin Heng extended his hand and invited the guests to take a seat.

Led by Sangji, the people of the Ram Tribe sat on the chairs.

But as soon as their butts landed, they sank.

The warriors of the Ram Tribe were frightened.

Thought this was some kind of trap.

Seeing this, Lin Heng hurried forward to comfort them, telling them not to be afraid, it was just that the chair was made of cloth, so it was soft.

Then they were told not to be nervous, to relax their bodies, sit down and lean their backs on the chairs.

Sang Ji looked at how the other people from the Central Plains sat, and then followed Lin Heng's instructions and sat down deeply.

Suddenly I felt my whole body was wrapped up by this magical thing called a chair.

Sitting on it is comfortable and gives you a sense of security.

She was greatly shocked and wondered how such a comfortable stool could be made from a piece of cloth.

Aren’t all stools made of wood?

When the others saw Grandma Sangji sitting down, they also relaxed and sat down according to Lin Heng's instructions.

Hmm, what kind of magical chair is this? Why is it so comfortable to sit on?

As soon as everyone sat down, the Twenty-Four Solar Terms girls brought them brewed tea.

The eyes of these grassland warriors were wide open.

The girls on their grasslands also have a kind of robust beauty, just like them. Where have you ever seen such delicate and graceful girls?

Her skin was so delicate that it seemed like it would break with a slight touch, and her waist was so thin that it seemed like it could be broken with one hand.

It was not until Lin Heng coughed twice that the warriors came back to their senses.

The people of the grassland have always been straightforward. When they saw a beautiful woman who was completely different from the people here, they looked at her a few more times and didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

However, Sangji was more knowledgeable and knew that the customs of the people in the Central Plains were different from theirs, so he hurriedly apologized for these reckless young men in his family.

"My dearest guest, I am so sorry. These girls are all as beautiful as flowers, so my children are dazzled by them."

When Lin Heng heard Grandma Sangji say this, and saw the boys looking at him with pure admiration, he waved his hand to indicate that it was okay.

He raised his hand and asked everyone to drink tea.

Sangji picked up the small and exquisite teacup in front of him.

The tea inside is clear and transparent, and there are patterns of birds, flowers and plants in the cup.

The teacup exudes a fragrance as soon as it is picked up.

She took a sip.

A refreshing fragrance filled the entire mouth.

She felt more and more that these people were extraordinary, and she wanted to make friends with them even more.

After drinking tea, everyone's topic returned to salt.

The lowest price given by the system is one pound of salt for one sheep.

Lin Ke felt that this was a huge profit.

You have to know that according to modern prices, a sheep can be sold for more than a thousand yuan.

And salt can be bought for two dollars a bag.

However, salt itself is a strategic material and was even more valuable in ancient times. On this grassland, it is no exaggeration to say that one ounce of salt can be exchanged for three ounces of gold.

So Lin Ke only told Lin Heng the lowest price and left the rest to him.

When Lin Heng heard his daughter say the bottom price, he had an idea in his mind.

He took out a small jar of salt and said, "We sell fine salt. Take a look. Can you give me a price?"

As he said this, he handed the salt shaker to Grandma Sangji.

Sang Ji carefully took the salt shaker handed to him by Lin Heng, opened the lid and took a look.

The crystal clear salt grains are as white and delicate as the first snow in winter, just like snow elves falling into the mortal world.

After getting Lin Heng's consent, she carefully poured out a dozen grains of salt into her palm.

Then she carefully returned the salt shaker to Lin Heng.

He dipped his free hand in some saliva and then stuck all the salt in the palm of his hand onto his own hand.

Only then did he solemnly put it into his mouth and tasted it carefully.

This salt doesn't even have a trace of bitterness!

Sangji had the good fortune to see the fine salt from a noble family before. The quality of that salt was very different from the salt from the people in the Central Plains.
