The Primitive World of Planar Trading

Dole put all his energy into completing the task. He urged the pure human helpers he had found to make blanks with molds in turn from morning to night. He also ordered a new earthen kiln to be dug according to Wu Nuo's request. Burn these coins.

Soon, the first batch of coins were fired, and Dole put the burnt coins into earthen jars, and packed them together with the plate with the fat cat pattern on them, and sent them back to Wu Nuo.

Dole has been working with Wu Nuo on the coins. Although he doesn't quite understand the true value of the coins, he understands their importance. In order to prevent someone from taking the coins out of curiosity or other reasons during the transportation, he is very smart. Seal the mouth of the jar with clay, and lightly draw a large circle on it with paint. If anyone wants to take out the coins inside, he must first smash the condensed clay on the mouth of the jar.Once the mouth of the can is smashed open, the circle of paint painting will become incomplete, and even if it is sealed with clay, the difference can be seen at a glance.

After Wu Nuo received the special sealed earthen jar full of coins, he immediately patted the earthen jar and repeatedly praised Dole for being smart. Bai Damiao happened to be at home, and saw his little angel kept praising another man. collapsed.

Wu Nuo didn't pay attention at all, opened one of the clay pots, and found that the coins inside were even better than the coins that were baked out of the water test last time, so he knew that Dole must have put a lot of thought into it.

Good employees like Dole, who are serious and responsible in their work and good at thinking, must be rewarded!

As a result, half of Bai Damiao's favorite dried spicy fish was lost, and his face was no longer ugly enough to describe.

At this moment, Wu Nuo finally realized that someone was unhappy, but he had a special skill to please Big Meow, and he sent a big plate with a picture of a fat cat, "It's for you, it's specially drawn for you. "

After being fired, the lines of the stick figures seem to have softened a bit, and the chubby white kittens have become cuter.

Bai took a few glances, tried hard to press down the corners of his lips that were trying to turn up, and said, "...not as good-looking as me, so stupid."

Wu Nuo glared at him, then reached out to grab the plate, "Give me back if it doesn't look good!"

Bai directly raised the plate above his head, and said confidently: "If you give me one, it's mine. No matter how ugly it is, it's mine. Don't give it up." Bai Damiao also has special skills to please the little angel, "Thank you." Then he lowered his head , the ice blue pupils looked deeply into Wu Nuo's eyes, kissed his lips, then bit his lips lightly, his eyes filled with a soft smile.

Wu Nuo looked into his eyes stupidly, indulged in it completely uncontrollably, came back to his senses after a long time, patted Feibai's paw that was about to move, and glared at him angrily, thinking angrily in his heart, this big cat Meow is really getting more and more cunning, more and more helpless with him!

Bai has become more and more aware of the principle of accepting as soon as he sees it. He squeezed Wu Nuo's puffy face and changed the topic to the jars of coins that he just delivered, "The coins have already been made, and I will send some to the following tomorrow." soldiers, but have you thought about the pricing of the coins?"

Wu Nuo's attention was successfully diverted. This issue of pricing is indeed a big problem. The tribal gathering will be held soon, not only the pricing of coins, but also the tribe's blood salt, bacon, bacon, dried white sweet potatoes, new tools and weapons, and beasts. Trading items such as skins, witchcraft, slaves, etc. all need a rough price.

In previous years, the Muyuan tribe dominated the trade of coarse salt and bacon, and naturally controlled the transaction prices of most of the traded items at tribal gatherings to a large extent.

This year is the first time that the Changhe Tribe has held a tribal gathering. There is no experience to learn from, and many things can only be learned by groping.

Although Bai is the leader, his energy alone is limited after all. Most of the time, his energy is devoted to managing and training his soldiers, hunting, and sharpening his combat effectiveness. The internal management of the tribe is basically handed over to the big witch.

After all, the big witch is old, and when he wants to manage a huge and completely different tribe, he will always be unable to do what he wants. He intends to train Wu Nuo to be his successor, and Wu Nuo has won Bai's trust. Leave it to Wu Nuo to take care of it.

Now the big witch is in charge of the internal affairs of the tribe in name, but the person who is really in charge has already become Wu Nuo. More often, the big witch just gives Wu Nuo some advice and help from the sidelines.

It was originally proposed by Bai to hold this year's tribal gathering, and the big witch agreed without any hesitation, but when it was actually implemented, it was Wu Nuo who was in charge of it.

Wu Nuo can also ask Li, A Wen and other orc warriors and big witches who are familiar with tribal gatherings to help him with the preparatory work such as the preparation of trading items for the gathering, the selection of trading locations, and the relevant arrangements for participating in the tribe. The pricing, especially the pricing of coins, can only be considered by Wu Nuo at his own discretion.

However, the prices in this world are very chaotic and completely inconsistent with the concept of value Wu Nuo cultivated in modern times. Let him set a price for how many barrels of coarse salt a slave is worth, how much linen is a bull worth, and how many horns a mutton bird can exchange for a slave. Wait, the slave trade alone is enough to embarrass him.

After all, in modern times, who can buy a living person with a few packets of salt?This transaction itself is a crime!

But in this world, in this era, the slave trade is a very normal business, and human life is so cheap that it is not worth a few barrels of coarse salt, not as good as livestock.

It is very difficult for Wu Nuo to completely reverse the value that human life is priceless that has been cultivated in the modern civilized society over the past ten years.

Therefore, when setting prices, he always subconsciously set the price of blood salt too low and the price of slaves too high.

Having been rejected several times by the great witch and Bai, the three of them called together some orc warriors who were familiar with tribal gatherings. After repeated discussions, they came up with a unified price in the general direction——

An adult bull can be exchanged for 25 tubes of blood salt;

A young and middle-aged slave can be exchanged for 10 tubes of blood salt; slave cubs and old slaves, the price is halved; an adult horn sheep can be exchanged for 5 tubes of blood salt;

An adult meat bird can be exchanged for 1 tube of blood salt;

……

In order to get a good price for the dried white sweet potatoes produced by the tribe, Wu Nuo specially asked the dwarves to make some wooden balances of different sizes according to modern balances. Meat and birds are sold at the price of one catty of live animals and one catty of dried white sweet potatoes.

Live animals cannot be killed until the cold winter comes. They have not been domesticated. If they are kept together for a whole day, they will not only fight but also lose meat. In the past, as long as conditions permit, they are more willing to exchange live animals for the stinky bacon of the Muyuan tribe.Although dried sweet potato is a vegetarian food, it is not as popular as meat, but it is easy to store. After the dried pieces are boiled, it can fill your stomach more than fresh sweet potatoes of the same weight, and it is not inferior to meat. Too much, Wu The price Nuo offered was not outrageous.

As for the tribe, the white sweet potatoes harvested last crop, after drying, have already filled all the tribe's cellars, large and small. Soon, fresh white sweet potatoes will have to be harvested again, and the cellars must be vacated.Dried white sweet potatoes are not easy to preserve, so instead of putting them in the tribe to get moldy, it is better to take the opportunity to sell more. If this is done well, not only can you get a lot of live animals, but you can also build a reputation for the tribe, and maybe absorb some of them. A tribe willing to belong to.

After everyone's repeated discussions, the price of barter was basically settled, but Wu Nuo tossed a coin out.In modern times, he is used to quantitative pricing such as how much a catty of meat costs, how much a catty of fruit costs, whether a bag of salt is one or two yuan, and so on. Now, various conditions obviously cannot meet such detailed quantitative standards.

Wu Nuo grabbed a handful of coins, scratched his head, and said irresponsibly, "...or else, a tube of blood salt is one yuan." Salt is the most widely used equivalent exchange item in this era. After much deliberation, Wu Nuo couldn't think of a better way than binding the value of the coin to the blood salt.

In the huge Changhe Tribe, apart from the well-informed Dawu, Bai the innately keen political sense, and Li who is very interested in transactions, the others, including the former leader Jin Tong who has abdicated, have not yet realized that coins can bring money. Benefits come.

They have become accustomed to the inherent way of bartering. It is hard for them to imagine what it would be like to trade other people’s things with coins made of clay, and it is also hard for them to imagine that they would exchange their livestock and food for nothing. Useful coins.

Therefore, the promotion of coins is not an easy task.

The only way Bai could do it was to distribute these coins in the form of rewards to soldiers and generals who performed well under him, so that they would first experience the convenience of bartering money, and then they would slowly spread it to the rest of the tribe, and then Promote to surrounding tribes.

At that time, coins will no longer be just a means of simplifying transactions, but will become an important tool in his hands.

Think carefully, the more you think about it, the brighter the white eyes are, "A tube of blood salt is one yuan, okay, I will do as you said. It's getting late, let's go to bed early!" The ambition in the eyes gradually overflowed with eager desire.

Wu Nuo glanced at the sun hanging high above the forest outside, and he has never seen anyone who can open his eyes and talk nonsense than Bai Damiao!Hey, are you going to have dinner...

Wu Xiaonuo had no time to struggle, and was thrown down by Bai Damiao with absolute physical strength, tearing apart bones and eating meat...

The tribal gathering is approaching, so we must get more bacon and bacon before this time. This is the first time the tribe holds a gathering, no matter which aspect it is, it must not be inferior to the Muyuan tribe!

The soldiers under him are willing to work hard, and they are generous in their actions. They often reward their soldiers with some coins.

Bai told them that these coins can be exchanged for blood salt in a special place of the tribe, and can also be exchanged for livestock, cloth, rice, wheat and so on.

Undoubtedly, the cloth, rice, and wheat were all contributed by Wu Nuo himself. The first 'shop' in the tribe that could exchange these items with coins was also created by him and managed by someone else.

No history book will record this insignificant small shop, but the time that has been annihilated by history will always remember this pivotal turning point.
