Chapter 475: The Night Is Dark
The county magistrate of Heijiao County felt the scorching momentum of the rear like an oven, and after comparing the strength of the two sides, he stood in place, he didn't think that the low city walls of this small county town could play any protective role.
"Li Wu, you were a person from the land before, you go and talk to them. We used the bones of the deep-sea sea beasts and some deep-sea special materials to exchange sugar, cloth, and some melons and fruits for them. Something else can also be exchanged. Meng Feng said to a man behind him who was covered in a white cloth.
Li Wu nodded, signaling that he understood, and then Li Wu stepped forward and ripped off the white cloth that covered most of his cheeks, revealing a delicate face.
"Hello, I don't know what your seniors are doing here?" the county magistrate of Heijiao County stood respectfully in place, nodding his head.
"I have no ill will towards you Yan Kingdom. We're just here to do business with you. Li Wu smiled faintly, and his delicate face gave people a feeling like a spring breeze.
"Well, this senior, the Yan Kingdom was destroyed two years ago, and now it is the Xia Kingdom established by the Great Majesty. The county magistrate smiled awkwardly, and then explained, with a hint of pride in his words.
Now there are dozens of strong men in the Xia Kingdom who have pushed open the immortal gate, and the reputation of each strong man is like thunder among the people, they are like gods standing in the sky, guarding this land.
As a citizen of Xia State, especially if he is also a county magistrate of Xia State, and he is also a member of the system, he is also proud of the strength of his country!
When the word Xia Guo was spoken, the county magistrate of Heijiao County straightened his back at some point, and his expression showed a touch of pride.
Li Wu was not interested in whether it was the Yan State or the Xia State that ruled, anyway, in his opinion......
"We are from the sea, and we are the sea people. Li Wu nodded and said, his voice was a little loud, reaching the ears of the surrounding onlookers.
"We just came to exchange a batch of supplies with you, we will not let you suffer, we use the special products from the sea to exchange cloth, sweet and sour, melons and fruits, some grain, gold and iron. ”
The county order was stunned, and then the bottom of my heart became hot, these people are the sea people?
He had probably heard of the name of the Sea People, and knew that there was such a race, and it was said that their ancestors were also Terrans on land, and they only went to settle on the sea because they fled.
But what does this have to do with him, he just needs to trade with these people.
As the county magistrate of Heijiao County, his family is also a big local household, and the things that the Sea People need to exchange are not precious, just ordinary materials, and he just has these things to come up, and the specialties of the Sea People are not easy to obtain.
One comes and goes, it is several times or even dozens of times the profit!
"Don't worry, senior! We have these things, I will definitely give you a fair price!" The county commander's heart became hot, and at the same time, he was a little annoyed in his heart, why did this senior say so loudly, he originally wanted to swallow this batch of sea people materials alone, but now it seems that it can't be done.
"Hmm. Li Wu nodded casually, expecting that this person would not dare to think carefully about the exchange of materials.
Back in the county seat, the county magistrate of Heijiao County first reported the matter here, and told the truth of the matter clearly, and he did not dare to hide it in the slightest.
Sky Scanners are everywhere and everywhere, especially since these damn guys have the ability to reach the sky, Li Wu doesn't want to get into trouble.
It's just that the matter has been reported, but how much is the exchange... This is what Li Wu himself said casually.
Forget it, only take a third of the deep-sea specialties. The county commander thought to himself.
However, in half a day, all the things needed by the sea people have been packed, and a thick layer of cowhide is wrapped on the outside for waterproofing, and materials such as sweet and sour must be protected from moisture and water.
As for the specialties of the Sea Clan, a tall Sea Clan man stepped forward and threw down the package he was carrying behind his back. After the county order of Heijiao County is counted, he will turn around and leave directly.
"Sent it... The county commander sent ...... his eyes were red, and the people who counted the materials were all cronies in his clan, and the package contained some white sea beast bones, which accounted for the largest amount.
Tapping the bones of sea beasts with your hands makes a sound like the symphony of gold and iron, crisp and pleasant.
Taking an iron dagger, a sturdy and tall subordinate stepped forward and stabbed the dagger in his hand suddenly, bringing out a fierce wind sound, "Poof!"
The dagger was directly burst out of a gap.
The violent force of the shock shook the subordinate back again and again, and his arm was numb.
The county commander showed a look of greed in his eyes, this sea beast bone is really hard, and then opened other packages, which were some deep-sea specialty plants, including coral, pearls, and some sea animal skins and the like.
For the sea people, these are all things that are readily available, but for the people on land, these are all precious goods, and things are rare and expensive.
sighed, he was greedy for this batch of valuable materials, but after thinking for a while, the county magistrate didn't have the courage after all, but ordered someone to secretly hide one-tenth of the amount of materials, and the rest of the things were reported to the court and handed over.
Originally, this county commander was also ready to establish a long-term trading relationship with these sea people, but unfortunately, those sea people didn't seem to have this intention, and directly turned around and left.
After exchanging supplies, Meng Feng and the others returned directly to the moving island, took back the iron lock, moved the island and turned away with the wind and waves, and the whole sea wave blew on the moving island, breaking into a little wave.
------------------------
At night, the county magistrate of Heijiao County sat in his bedroom, a bright oil candle burning slowly, exuding a faint fragrance.
Silver scale walrus oil, which is a specialty from the deep sea, after the silver scale walrus is killed, the oil is boiled, mixed with sea stone powder, stirred evenly and then dried, it is a raw silver scale walrus oil.
Not only is the light bright, but it can also emit a faint incense, and there is a blue color like ink in the burning flame, which can be described as the best grade in fuel, and it has always been expensive on land.
Among the materials exchanged by the sea people this time are dozens of catties of silver-scale walrus oil, if you want to say that this thing is not of much use for cultivation, it is just to calm the nerves, but it is precious and compelling.
The county magistrate of Heijiao County secretly hid a few catties and lit one tonight to try the feeling.
Tsk –
For some reason, it just feels good!
Suddenly, there was a sparse sound outside the window, occasionally ringing and then extinguishing.
The county magistrate of Black Reef County frowned, thinking that there were guards patrolling, and he believed that it would be dealt with soon, but the voice was getting noisier and louder.
Suddenly, a muffled moan woke up the prefectural order, and the sound was like the painful groans of a child who had been starving for a long time in a small black box.
The door was pushed open at some point.
The county commander suddenly raised his head, and his right hand suddenly held the sword placed on the side, Boom!
The sword was unsheathed, and the county commander suddenly stood up, his body was full of murderous aura, where was the image of obscene and greedy for money in the daytime.
"Who is it! Sneaky! No matter who you are, do you know that I am the lord of a county ordered by Great Xia, and if you dare to do something to me, you will provoke the majesty of Great Xia!" the county commander shouted loudly.
But half of the ring passed, and there was no movement outside the house, and the county commander's heart sank.
He was so loud before to alarm the other people in the house, no matter what the reason was, it was not a good sign that those subordinates did not come.
There was silence for a while, and the county order narrowed his eyes and slowly retreated back, away from the closed window.
Whew-
At some point, a strong wind blew open the windows, bringing darkness to the night.
The silver-scaled walrus oil candle burning on the table struggled in the wind, stubbornly struggling for several breaths, and finally went out with a bang.
Inside and outside the house, the night is thick.
Even the bugs, which used to like to chirp outside the window, closed their mouths.
"Drop~"
"Drop~"
A drop of water dripped from the top of his head, dripping on the back of the county order's neck, the biting coldness aroused him all over his body, and a touch of coldness in the depths of the tail vertebrae rose from the bottom to the top of his scalp, the hair stood upside down, and the scalp exploded!
"Kill!"
The county commander burst into applause, and a sword was drawn and slashed at the top of his head.
