Chapter 40: Flattened
Shanguo'er leaned down.
The head is only 1 meter away from the high view.
The two big black eyes staring at Gao Jing were full of incomparable anticipation.
Crystalline, innocent, innocent.
Let Gao Jing feel that if he doesn't fulfill the promise of the little girl, it is a big crime!
Luckily, he didn't just bring candy cubes this time.
And it's 2,000 pounds!
"Here, here!"
Gao Jing hurriedly pointed to the rattan basket on the right: "Here are all sugar cubes for you!"
Shan Guo'er immediately looked in the direction of Gao Jing's finger, and her eyes flashed with excitement.
"Wow!"
She reached out and grabbed a 10-pound piece of peanut candy, and her eyebrows and eyes were crooked.
Can't wait to put it in your mouth!
"Wait!"
Gao Jing hurriedly stopped: "Must, well, peel off the outside before eating." ”
There is no word "plastic" in the Great Wilderness text.
Shanguo'er blinked, trying to tear the plastic wrap wrapped in peanut candy with her fingers.
"Snort" and tore it off.
Looking at the peanut candy in her hand, the little girl was not in a hurry to eat it.
She sniffed the candy cube under her nose, then stuck out her little tongue and licked it on it.
Suddenly my eyes lit up!
Click!
The next moment, 5 catties of 10 catties of peanut candy disappeared from her mouth.
Click!
Tasting the crispy peanut candy, the little girl's face suddenly bloomed with a smile that was even brighter than spring.
This fragrant and sweet taste is something she has never tasted in her life.
Fill your mouth, stay between your teeth, and let your taste buds explode and go deep into your soul!
It's so delicious!!
If the chocolate given by Gao Jing in the past made her see a beautiful paradise.
Then now the peanut candy will take her directly into heaven.
I'm so happy that I'm about to fly.
And the sincere joy and happiness that Shan Guoer exudes at this moment also makes Gao Jing feel very happy.
Very satisfying.
Click! Click! Click!
Immediately afterwards, the remaining half of the peanut candy was also stuffed into the mouth of the mountain fruit.
While chewing, she quickly grabbed a second piece.
Tear the film first, and then enter it, you can't stop!
"Shanguo'er, let's eat it again when we go home. ”
Gao Jing saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly said, "I also brought back salt for your grandfather." ”
According to her way of eating, 2,000 catties of peanut candy can't last long at all.
Gao Jing plans to stay in the mountain village for a while longer.
In case the little girl is addicted to eating and eats nothing, let him get another batch back.
That's trouble!
What if she eats too much peanut candy and gets tooth decay?
Anyway, does a little girl from the Giant Clan have tooth decay?
Gao Jing wanted to immediately log in to the 985 per capita education level to ask questions.
I'm in a hurry to wait online!
"Hmm. ”
Shan Guo'er was quite sensible, and said vaguely: "Wo took mud to find Yeye." ”
She stuffed the peanut candy in her hand into her mouth indiscriminately, and then stretched out her palm to Gao Jing: "Come on." ”
Gao Jing is already very familiar with the little girl's action.
He immediately jumped into the palm of the mountain's hand.
The little girl sent Gao Jing to the back basket hanging behind her, and then grabbed the rattan basket loaded with goods.
The two rattan baskets are connected by thick vine roots, like flat poles.
She easily grabbed her shoulders and leaped off the back of the giant rhinoceros pack beast.
The landing posture is stable enough to score 10 points!
Gao Jing could see that his eyes were about to bulge out of his sockets.
You must know that there are eighty or ninety tons of goods in two rattan baskets!
Gao Jing really can't imagine how strong the power is hidden in the "small" body of the little girl!
"Let's go!"
Jumping off the mountain fruit of the beast of burden, he scattered his legs and galloped towards the village!
Giant Rhinoceros Pack Beast: Ang ???
Woof!
Just then, a little yellow dog ran out of the gate.
just staggered past Shanguo'er.
Wow!
The little yellow dog quickly turned around and wanted to catch up with his little master.
As a result, I accidentally tripped over the grass vines on the ground, and fell on the spot!
Woof!
It was anxious and panicked, and tears of grievance were in its eyes.
"Stupid dog!"
Shanguo'er stopped and waited for the little yellow dog to catch up with her.
Grab it and stuff it into the basket.
Gao Jing in the back basket: "......"
The next moment, the little yellow dog's wet tongue licked over.
Gao Jing with saliva on his face: "!!"
Weak, forced, helpless.
"Grandpa!"
Shan Guo'er rushed up the mountain path and ran down the long stone steps inside.
"Gao Jing is here, he's back with salt!"
The little girl's crisp voice echoed in the valley, attracting many people in the village to look around.
Shan Guo'er ran to the wooden house in one go.
Kicked the door open.
In the wooden house, the old wizard is taking a lesson with a group of bear children in the village.
The little girl who suddenly broke in scared everyone.
"Grandpa!"
Shan Guo'er didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, and hurriedly shouted to the old wizard: "Gao Jing is back!"
"I hear you. ”
The old wizard put down the charcoal in his hand and smiled kindly.
Gao Jing stepped on the edge of the basket and jumped onto the wooden table in front of him.
He respectfully saluted the old wizard: "Hello Witch Head, I'm back. ”
"Good work. ”
The old wizard bowed slightly.
He said to the curious bear children, "Go back first, and then continue your studies tomorrow." ”
The little ones would love to stay and watch the fun.
But they did not dare to disobey the old wizard's words, so they reluctantly left the cabin.
Turn back as you go.
Shanguo'er secretly grimaced at these guys.
Then he closed the door.
She carried the goods in the rattan basket to the table: "Grandpa, Gao Jing brought me candy cubes, which are very good and delicious." ”
"You eat a piece too!"
Shan Guo'er skillfully peeled out a piece of peanut candy and handed it to his grandfather as if he were offering a treasure.
"You eat. ”
The old wizard touched her head and said lovingly, "Grandpa doesn't eat it." ”
Of course, he could see that the little girl liked this candy cube very much.
And what will eat her.
Gao Jing smiled: "Shanguo'er, can you help me bring a jar?"
The old wizard nodded at his granddaughter.
"Good. ”
Shan Guo'er agreed crisply.
She stuffed the peeled piece of peanut candy into her mouth, and one cheek immediately bulged like a squirrel.
Quickly helped Gao Jing find an empty clay pot.
The mountain tribes were quite primitive, and the tools used by the giants on a daily basis were mainly stone, bone, and wood.
But they also knew how to use clay to make pottery.
Cook food.
Gao Jing pulled out the mountain knife he carried with him and cut the seal of the salt packet.
He asked Shanguo'er to help and pour the coarse salt from the bag into the jar.
The old wizard was shocked.
The old giant stretched out his thin index finger, slipped into the jar, dipped some grains of salt, and put it in his mouth to taste it.
I was stunned.
During the time Gao Jing lived in the mountain village, he followed the old wizard every day to learn the Great Wilderness Literature.
He had never seen the other party so out of shape!
I couldn't help but feel a little worried: "Witch Head, is there any problem?"
"Nope. ”
The old wizard came to his senses and said with a wry smile: "No problem, it's this salt, it's really good!"
"It's really good..."
His old face showed a look of remembrance: "I have never eaten such good salt in the capital of kings." ”
Gao Jing suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
It's good that there are no problems.
He was glad that he had bought coarse salt instead of refined salt, otherwise he really didn't know what kind of expression the other party would have.
It's just that Gao Jing also has a question in his heart.
Didn't the wizards who possessed supernatural powers have developed a way to boil refined salt?
It's not difficult.
But now is not the time to think about it, and he continues to unpack the salt bag.
As a result, all the salt packets were taken out, and there was no clay pot full of mountain fruits!
Gao Jing is a little skeptical about life.
80 tons, a full 80,000 kilograms, cost him nearly 200,000 oceans of edible coarse salt.
It's not enough for a jar!
And the mountain tribes have more than 700 people.
What's the use of good salt quality?
Not enough to eat at all!
He said apologetically: "Wu Shou, I'm sorry, I can only bring back so much..."
It is really a copper anchor with limited storage space capacity.
"No, no, no!"
The old wizard immediately waved his hand to interrupt Gao Jing's apology: "Your Excellency Gao Jing, you are so polite!"
Gao Jing was stunned.
The leader of the mountain tribe addressed him with the word "Your Excellency."
This word is usually only used to express the honorific title of "shi" in the Great Wilderness text.
Shi refers to the nobles and strong people in the Great Wilderness Human Race.
Gao Jing didn't expect that these coarse salts would improve his status in the other party's minds so much!
He hurriedly said: "Don't dare to be." ”
The old wizard shook his head.
The old giant took out a gray-black stone from his pocket and placed it next to the clay pot: "Do you know what price we need to pay to get a piece of salt stone?"
Of course, Gao Jing remembered this bitter and astringent thing.
He shook his head, too.
The old wizard held up a finger and sighed, "A hide, a skin of a megalodon!"
Gao Jing had never seen a megalodon.
However, as you can see from the old wizard's expression, it is not easy to obtain a Megalodon Tiger Skin.
"The wood you gave you is not worth anything. ”
The old wizard continued, "Hunt a megalodon and we risk losing a valiant warrior. ”
Gao Jing completely understood what he was trying to say.
In fact, this is the huge difference between the two worlds.
How did the other party know that the coarse salt brought by Gao Jing was only worth a piece of wood!
"What you bring to our tribe is hope. ”
The old wizard said meaningfully, "Without salt, our warriors will gradually lose their strength and become weak, and our tribe will perish as a result." ”
"And now, do you still think you have very little salt?"
Gao Jing was dumbfounded.
The old giant's honesty and open-mindedness made him admire him very much.
The other party didn't really need to tell him this.
But the old wizard made it clear.
It's trust!
After thinking about it, Gao Jing asked, "Wu Shou, so your salt stone was also obtained from trading with others?"
"Yes. ”
The old wizard nodded: "Every ninety days or so, a caravan will come to our village. ”
Black-hearted businessman!
Gao Jing said: "So that's the case." ”
Originally, Gao Jing wanted to say that you don't have to trade with these black-hearted guys in the future.
I'll bring salt for you for a long time!
But if you can't find a way to charge the Copper Anchor, then such a promise is completely useless.
So when it came to my mouth, I swallowed it back hard.
"That's right. ”
"I also brought you a gift," he said. ”
The old wizard asked with interest, "What gift?"
Gao Jing used a mountain opener to cut open a sack.
The yellow-brown dried leaves stuffed inside the bag were immediately revealed: "Tobacco leaves!"
The old wizard was usually very fond of smoking dry tobacco.
He had a pipe hidden in the head of his wooden staff, which he pulled out and took two puffs when he had nothing to do.
But the tobacco leaves used, Gao Jing smelled very inferior.
Therefore, during the big purchase in the main world, Gao Jing specially bought a few hundred catties of tobacco leaves for the old wizard.
It's not easy to buy tobacco leaves, and Gao Jing found a way to buy it.
The reason why he only bought a few hundred catties was because he was worried that the tobacco leaves in the main world might not be to the other party's taste.
If the old wizard doesn't like it, it's a waste.
"Huh?"
The old wizard was a little surprised.
He pulled out his pipe, reached out and pinched a ball of tobacco leaves into the bowl.
The tobacco leaves brought by Gao Jing are complete, but for the giants, they are not much different from the shredded tobacco.
He lit the fire and took two puffs.
The cloudy old eyes suddenly lit up.
That kind of unexpected surprise is at least eight points similar to the mountain fruit that has just eaten peanut sesame candy!
"Good smoke!"
The old wizard couldn't help but be a little overjoyed: "Thank you, I like this gift very much." ”
Gao Jing smiled: "It's good if you like it." ”
I didn't make a mistake.
"Mountain fruit..."
The old wizard took a few puffs of cigarette before reluctantly putting down his pipe: "You go and tell Shantai to let him light a bonfire at night, and we will entertain friends!"
"Hmm. ”
The mountain fruit next to him covered his mouth, trying to swallow the peanut candy in his mouth.
It's just that her cheeks are bulging like chipmunks stuffed with chestnuts.
Where can you escape the eyes of others!
When Gao Jing was talking to the old wizard just now, the little girl didn't know how many pieces of sesame candy she had stolen.
The old wizard couldn't cry or laugh, and reached out to rub his granddaughter's hair: "Save some food, it's not easy for Your Excellency Gao Jing to bring these things back, and there will be no more after eating." ”
Shanguo'er nodded with a blushing face, and ran out of the wooden house with the little yellow dog.
The old wizard smiled.
After taking two more puffs of his cigarette, he asked solemnly, "Your Excellency Gao Jing, how can I thank you?"
Gao Jing's heart jumped suddenly.
After carefully reading "The Great Wilderness", Gao Jing quietly changed his goals in the big world.
Making money has taken a back seat.
He has a higher pursuit!
Now that this new goal is suddenly achievable, how can you not be excited?
But Gao Jing quickly calmed down: "Wu Shou, you don't need to thank me, because we are fair trade. ”
"And if it weren't for the people of the tribe who saved me, I'm afraid I would have died in the wilderness. ”
"So I should be thanked!"
The old wizard smiled.
He tapped the clay pot containing coarse salt on the table with his pipe, and said meaningfully, "Now..."
"We're even. ”
