Ancient wasteland

They sat and had a rest in the manor house, and when they heard Jing Que say that they wanted to bring back more seafood, they called the person guarding the door to come in.

Give him the small box of pearl coins that are going to be given to Jing Zhu, and let him go to the tribe to buy what Jing Zhu wants, and charge more for dried kelp and fish.

Easy to carry, delicious to eat, and cheap.

Let him spend the pearl coins, no matter how much he can receive, he knows how big the wild is, and he can take it away when he collects it.

There is no cold season in their tribe, but the temperature still changes. At the hottest time, even the seawater on the surface is warm.

Fish and shrimps will dive deep into the water, and it will be more troublesome to catch fish in the sea. Often, no fish can be caught in a net, and there is no harvest.

Now the temperature in the sea is suitable, and the temperature in the north has dropped, so many fish swim along the river to their tribe.

Raw small fish in the sea, and the aquatic products that can be salvaged have increased accordingly. There is more than enough to eat, and the price is very cheap.

As the beast king in the tribe, Zhuang did not lack food, but for some reason, food in their tribe was difficult to preserve.

The fish and shrimp are dead, and they will soon stink and rot... Even if they are dried and left there, they will soon go bad, and they are too stinky to eat.

Since it can't be stored for later consumption, Zhuang naturally hopes to sell it, and he likes Ye and Jing He to buy it himself.

Even if the price is cheaper, it can still benefit the tribe, so I want to let the wild take as much as possible.

"Anyway, it's very cheap, and you won't lose money if you buy it back."

Zhuang is very serious about selling, with a gentle smile, "The prices you brought here are not cheap, and I won't bargain."

Jing Que smiled and argued, "Your food is cheap because your tribe has no shortage of food, and they all get it directly from the sea.

How can it compare with the porcelain and colored glaze of our tribe, not to mention these porcelains, as long as you don't break them.

It can be used for many years, and maybe when you are gone, it can be left to your children or apprentices, as your family heirloom! "

Zhuang nodded with a smile, and looked at it with a glass bead, "This color is very similar to the colorful bridge in the sky, and I like this color the most.

In the past, when I practiced in the sea in the north, there would be a colorful bridge in the sky. I wanted to pick it off and play, so I flew up towards the colorful bridge.

But before I flew there, the colorful bridge disappeared, and I couldn't take it off. As a result, when I flew back, I saw that the bridge was still there.

You can't see it when you fly into the sky... It's strange, it's like a naughty child, hiding and playing with me in the sky. "

Zhuang then sighed, holding the colorful glazed beads, he couldn't put it down, "Did you pick these beads from the colorful bridge too?"

Jing Que, "...No."

He has never heard of someone who likes rainbows and wants to fly to the sky to pick them off and play with them. He doesn't know what to say about Zhuang Tong's heart.

It's really amazing to praise Zhuang, after all, people can really fly into the atmosphere, and they want to catch the Rainbow Bridge to play!

Fortunately, Zhuang didn't like the sun and the moon, or else he had a whim that day and wanted to pick them up to play, so he wouldn't be exhausted on the way? !

He hesitated, how to explain Liulizhu's approach to Zhuang, the right person came outside the door, and the leader was Huyue dressed formally.

He smiled at them reservedly, "Teacher wants to see you!"

Jing Que didn't discuss picking the rainbow with Zhuang, and stood up to tidy up his somewhat messy clothes, "Take us there."

Zhuang Chong Huyue waved his hand, looking a little impatient, "Go and wait outside first, didn't you see that I was talking to Jing and the others?!"

Hu Yue didn't even dare to argue aloud, she exited respectfully and led others to wait at the door, looking very obedient.

He probably noticed that the relationship between Zhuang and the priests of the Blackwater Tribe was not very good, and there was probably some suspicion.But it's not easy to ask too much.

Just looking at Zhuang, thinking that he had something to tell them, "What's wrong?"

Zhuang glanced at the door, "Our tribal priest...the eyes grow on the top of his head, and he came to ask me for help.

I told the priest at the time that your tribe is a super tribe, and in the north far away from us, he had to send Huyue there.

I don't know what Huyue told him when he came back. Now he will come to you, and I don't know what his attitude is. Be careful. "

Jing Que nodded slightly, looked at his eyes, saw that his expression was calm and did not show any worried expression, so he was not too worried.

Gently nodded with Zhuang, "Okay."

Zhuang waved his hand, "That's fine, I won't accompany you there, it's annoying to see that old man, I'll wait for you here.

When the big rally starts, I will take you to the rally and find you a booth with a better location. "

Jing Qu thanked him with a smile, and went out with Hu Yue to the Black Water Tribe.

The sacrificial residence is located in the center of the tribe. There is a high platform built, and you have to climb up the stone steps. Jing Que wears a long robe, which makes it inconvenient to move around.

Holding a scepter, she slowly climbed up, Huyue sent the people following back to report the news, and walked slowly with Jing Que.

He lowered his head and spoke to them in a low voice, "The teacher wants your parchment, all of it."

Jing Zhu nodded with a smile, "If the price is right, I can sell them all to you. Anyway, I sell them to anyone, and I don't mind."

Huyue was silent, and after walking up a dozen steps, she bit her lip and whispered to him, "Teacher, he... never buys anything."

Jing Que was stunned, "Huh?!"

He blinked, not understanding what Huyue meant, "Then you tribe can pay for it, can you give it to him?"

Huyue shook her head slightly, her voice became softer, "We are a super tribe, and many small tribes seek refuge every year.

Or if you want to exchange things with us, or if you want to participate in the big gathering of the four super tribes, you will send something to the teacher.

Only if the teacher agrees on behalf of the tribe, they can move within the scope of our tribe. The teacher means that he is willing to accept your things.

It will be your honor to allow you to attend the Great Gathering, and to sell and buy things in our tribe. "

Jing Que frowned, a little displeased, "Is this considered a commercial tax? Or is it considered a separate bribe for the priest.

But anyway, it's a bit expensive.

He wanted parchment, what about the quill and ink, and wanted both? !If so, we are at a loss. "

They brought quite a lot of parchment, and the bleating beast was a specialty around their tribe, and the animal skins they hunted were divided into two parts.

Most of them are used to make parchment, and a small part is used to make leather. The tribes think that the sheepskin is too soft and the leather is not wear-resistant.

There are also the feather pens and oily ink they brought over. The pens were made by drawing the tail feathers of quack beasts in the water season, and the production is quite easy.

But the lampblack ink is more difficult to make, it is a little bit of lampblack collected from the oil lamps in the tribe, and it is made with hard work!

Opening your mouth just wanting to ask for nothing, and it’s okay to send some meaning, but if you want to ask for nothing, it’s a bit too lionized.

Jing Qu only felt depressed, and complained to Ye in a low voice, "It's really hard to do some business!"

Ye Ye chuckled, stretched out his hand, and patted his shoulder gently, "It's not difficult, isn't Zhuang very generous."

Jing Qu pursed his lips with displeasure, "Zhuang is very generous, but he won't buy our sheepskin..."

Halfway through speaking, Ye suddenly realized what Ye meant, raised his brows, and raised the corners of his mouth, "Oh, yes, Zhuang is indeed generous.

I love doing business with him and will always do business with him in the future! "

Ye nodded, "Yeah!"

They followed Huyue to the priest's residence of the Heishui Tribe, and after greeting them, Jing Que took out the prepared parchment, pen and ink.

Priest Heishui, who had always been arrogant and disregarded people, turned black instantly, staring at the ten sheets of paper and two pens in front of him with a gloomy expression.

I can't wait to pick up the scepter and stab them to death, "You came from the mountain tribe to participate in the big rally, did you bring such a little parchment?!"

Jing Qu smiled as usual, "That's about it, this kind of parchment is difficult to make, and people in our tribe also use it.

There are not many left, and it is our first time to participate in a large collection. I don’t know if you like this kind of parchment, so we didn’t bring too much.

We brought a total of [-] pieces of parchment, but after we arrived at your tribe, we went to Zhuang first. He liked this parchment.

The price given was right, so I sold him all the extra. These gifts are specially reserved for you, I hope you like them. "

Priest Heishui's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he stared at Jing Qu with hatred, "You know that only priests learn writing in the tribe.

Why sell the parchment to Zhuang? !He just wanted to fight against me on purpose, he must be trying to use those parchments to piss me off! "

Jing Que had an innocent face, "I brought the parchment to Heishui City to sell it, and since Zhuang is willing to buy it, I will definitely sell it.

I can get the pearl coins to buy things, it doesn't matter whether he can use words to do anything, I will come in the future, if he wants to buy, I will still sell. "

Black Water Priest, "You..."

He was constantly heaving and falling with anger, and his face turned red in vain.

You haven't come out for a long time, Jing Zhu and the others are here to do business, not to ask them, so they can't be restrained.

After stalking for a long time, Cai was trembling with anger, pointing his finger at Jing Zhu's head, "You are not allowed to sell things in our tribe!"

Jing Que, "...Oh, that's fine."

As he spoke, he reached for the pen and paper he had just sent out, but was "slapped" by the priest of Heishui, and snapped, "What do you want to do?!"

Jing Zhu looked at him innocently, "Did you not allow us to do business in Heishui City, then I will go to Caiyun City to have a look.

These are gifts we prepared, and they must be taken away as gifts, otherwise they won't allow us to buy things. "

Priest Heishui looked like he was about to explode, "Get lost!"

But the palm of his hand pressed the parchment firmly, seeing Jing Qu staring at the parchment all the time, his face was red and white for a long time.

Still reluctant to part with those papers and pens, Hu Yue just demonstrated to him how to use paper and pens, it is indeed much more convenient than engraving on a wooden board.

Although he said one thing in Heishui City, he couldn't control the other tribes. At that time, these people went to Caiyun City.

Priest Caiyun has it, but he doesn't, so how can it make sense? !

Taking a deep breath, he suppressed the urge to ask someone to do something, and then he gritted his teeth and said, "You can participate in the big rally, I agree."

Jing Que was a little bit reluctant, seeing his twisted and deformed expression, he was secretly happy, and secretly thought that my goods were the only ones.Are you afraid you won't be able to sell it? !The devil will send you for nothing!

But he pretended to be hesitant, and then nodded, "Okay, then let's wait for the big meeting, you can try these parchments first.

If you think it’s easy to use, you can buy it from me. We’ll still bring the parchment next year, so forget it if you don’t need it. "

Priest Heishui was so angry that his eyes were burning. The things he liked were all sent to him by others.

When did he need to buy the pearl coins? !He even has the heart to drive the two of them out of Heishui City!

It's a pity that after touching the delicate and smooth paper, I felt reluctant, so I could only point to the door and let people roll.

Jing Yu agreed, and rolled out in a happy mood.

He turned around to find Zhuang, told Zhuang about the matter, brought out the box of pearl coins he earned last year, and asked Zhuang to help him buy things.

Zhuang is very happy to see the sacrifices suffer, and is willing to generate income for the tribe. When he gets the pearl coins, he happily finds someone to go to the market to buy various seafood.

Jing Que himself was a little worried that the priest of Heishui would make trouble for Zhuang.

Zhuang didn't care, "Don't worry, our tribe doesn't have warriors with the potential to be a beast king, but there are plenty of candidates for sacrifice.

Even the priest dared to make some small moves behind his back, and he had to be respectful in front of me. If he dared to find fault, I would dare to beat him. "

Jing Yu thought about it, and it was the same reason.

In the face of absolute power, any conspiracy and tricks are false, if you say beat you, you will beat you, and after you beat you, you are afraid of embarrassment and dare not speak out!

When their family becomes the Beastmaster, he won't have to wrestle with the Black Water Priest like he is now, and he can walk sideways!

snort!Like an eight-legged crab, it can be as horizontal as it wants!

It's not the time yet, so he will work hard for the time being, and turn his head to seek development.

But Zhuang was really interesting to them, Jing Zhuo thought about it for a while, and talked to Zhuang about the problems in their tribe.

"Actually, the biggest problem in your tribe is humidity, especially with your house, which is completely sealed and airtight.

As a result, the inside is wet. In fact, I think you can make windows, or make a two-story building with wood or bamboo.

But wood is easy to absorb moisture, so... I suggest that you use stones to lay the foundation, and use wood on top, preferably brushed with tung oil. "

Jing Qu smiled and recommended tung oil to him, "Our tribe's special product is very good, and it is good to use it.

You can go back to the tribe with us to have a look, then I can let you buy it at the total cost price, it is very cheap, you can think about it. "

Zhuang frowned, "Let me think about it."

Jing Zhu nodded generously, "Think about it slowly, we still have to attend the big rally, there is still plenty of time.

To be honest, if I didn't see you helping us all the time, I wouldn't invite you to our tribe. We have a lot of secrets. "

Zhuang smiled slightly, staring at the people who bought things for them and brought them over.

Looking at the large boxes of dried kelp, fish and shrimp, being delivered in a steady stream, neatly piled up in the corner!

Jing Que was very happy, and finally the trip was not in vain.

I count the extra things every day, and occasionally I have to pretend to let Ye take things out, but in fact all those things are placed in the space.

It was too humid outside, and he was afraid that it would return to the tide, so he let it go bad before he got back to the tribe!

Jing Qu happily counted the harvest, time passed quickly, this day Jing Qu just put things into the space, pretending to come back from the outside.

Zhuang came to look for them, "Tomorrow we will set off to the place where the big meeting will be held, you will go with me.

I'll take you there and find a location close to our tribe. "

The Black Water Priest did not allow them to sell things in the tribe, so no one could buy those porcelain and seasonings, and Zhuang was a little unhappy.

However, he was too lazy to quarrel with the priest, so he simply arranged Jing Zhu and the others around their tribe, so that the tribe could take the opportunity to exchange more.

Jing Que had no objection, and followed Zhuang to the place where the meeting was held.
