Yi Chenzi opened his mouth slightly and was stunned, wasn't this Bayatu still trying to ask to marry Wei Yuan just now? Why did you change your mind again so quickly?

Bayatu looked at Yi Chenzi's expression, thinking that Yi Chenzi was a little embarrassed, thought about it and secretly said to Yi Chenzi: "If that woman is extremely gentle, I am willing to add five more sheep, and if it is successful, I will give you two sheep as a thank you gift." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Bayatu said this seriously, and it was sincere, in their place, ten sheep could be exchanged for an extremely beautiful girl, and where could there be so many two sheep in thanks, at most it was only a leg of mutton.

"I can't help you with this, I may not go back to Da Zhou in the future."

Yi Chenzi likes this rough and stupid man very much, and he doesn't know how he has survived for so many years, if this kind of person is placed in Da Zhou, I am afraid that he will be deceived so that he can't even have a bone left.

"Huh? Not going back to the big week? ”

Bayatu touched his head innocently, and his expression became even more silly: "Then do you want to stay with me?" I'm ...... now."

Bayatu lowered his head and counted his property, probably because he was born with poor arithmetic, and Bayatu didn't calculate any specific numbers after half a sound.

"I can afford to eat anyway, and none of the shepherds who follow me have starved to death in the past few years."

Bayatu said proudly: "Those big tribes die a lot of people almost every year, and I am much better here than the big tribes!" ”

After listening to Bayatu's words, Yichenzi had a better impression of Bayatu, thought about it, took out a tattered cloth towel from his arms, and threw it in front of Bayatu: "This is for you." ”

Bayatu looked at Yi Chenzi's appearance, thinking that this was some kind of new etiquette of the Great Zhou, so he responded in a humble voice, and put the broken handkerchief in his arms: "I will keep it well." ”

Much later, after Bayatu became the leader of a large tribe by luck, he still had a habit of cutting small pieces of cloth from the silk bought by the Great Zhou and giving them to the merchants who came from the Great Zhou.

"It's your custom, I haven't forgotten!"

Every time Bayatu said with a smile, those merchants from the Great Zhou were the second monks who were confused, but they begged Bayatu, so they had to accept the rag with a smile.

Later, somehow, the rumors became more and more intense, not only on Bayatu's side, but even other tribes heard about this custom of the Great Zhou, and knew that the old man who was the first to send this kind of thing to Bayatu brought good luck to Bayatu, so the silk of the Great Zhou had another use since then.

It was cut into small pieces by these tribal leaders and given to the passing merchants and other leaders.

Later, the merchants of the Great Zhou Dynasty came up with the idea that this kind of ritual became more and more cumbersome, and could not be used only to cut small pieces of cloth into pieces, but to cut them into various shapes similar to window flowers, and sell them directly to those tribal leaders, and the price was much more expensive than a piece of silk.

The tribal leaders of the Western Regions were also very happy, and those who believed in wolves cut the grass wool of those merchants one by one to lifelike steppe wolves, and those who believed in the moon weaved into a moon with the shadow of osmanthus on it, which was much more expensive than werewolves.

The hands of the people of the Western Regions are not very dexterous, and it is powerful to let them dance with knives and guns, but it is completely impossible to let them cut flowers and embroider grass, especially those women in the Western Regions who have just begun to learn embroidery, they are simply pierced with needles full of needles that they can't hold steadily.

Of course, there are also some ingenious women in the Western Regions, they seem to be born to do this kind of thing, such women are very valuable in the Western Regions, and only in the big tribes will there be one or two such powerful people.

After silk became a kind of lucky charm, there were more and more people who liked to wear silk, and the people of the Western Regions ran horses all day long, and the wear and tear of silk was extremely severe, so the amount of silk needed by the entire Western Regions every year was simply extraordinary.

Some lords of the Western Regions thought that the complete trade of the Great Zhou Dynasty was the exploitation of the Western Regions, but they could not prevent their subordinates from secretly buying salt, iron pots, silk, cotton, and so on that other Western Regions people bought from the Great Zhou people.

When Bayatu was old, a wish was finally realized, and there was a person as polite as the Great Zhou people in the descendants, that was his eldest grandson, and at that time, there were many people in a large area of the Western Regions who were no different from the Great Zhou people.

Pay attention to the three outlines and five constants, record the ancestral chapters, to the Great Zhou Dynasty, some people in the Western Regions than the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty can export chapters.

But that was a long, long time later.

"If you take this and exchange it for cattle and sheep, you don't have to marry someone else because there are not enough sheep at home."

Wei Yuan pointed to the bracelet and said softly.

The girl took the bracelet and touched it, looked at it quietly for a while, shook her head gently, and handed the bracelet to Wei Yuan: "No, sister, those people will rob it when they see it, and our cattle and sheep will also be robbed." ”

Wei Yuan was stunned, she really didn't expect this.

The law of the jungle is indeed an eternal law in every place, but Wei Yuan didn't expect that such a young child would know this kind of truth that needs to go through a lot of wind and rain to understand.

"Do we have a surplus of food?"

Wei Yuan silently accepted the bracelet and gently poked his head to ask Xiao Jinyu.

Xiao Jinyu has been pretending to drink tea, but Yichenzi on the left is chatting happily with Bayatu, and Wei Yuan on the right has been chatting with the girl, so Xiao Jinyu had to drink milk tea slowly and eat mutton one by one.

"Yes, there are many."

Hearing Wei Yuan's question, Xiao Jinyu perked up, immediately nodded, and dragged the cushion to Wei Yuan and sat down.

"I want to give her a bag of food."

Wei Yuan's voice was lowered, so he also moved closer to Xiao Jinyu, Xiao Jinyu was in a trance, and barely heard Wei Yuan's words.

"Okay, when?" A bag of food is just a meal for their team, and even if they give more, there is no problem.

"Let's go." Wei Yuan glanced at the girl with big eyes and round eyes, she couldn't understand the official dialect of the Great Zhou, she could only understand the local dialect of Jizhou that Wei Yuan spoke just now.

Xiao Jinyu nodded, and could see that Wei Yuan liked this girl a little, and couldn't help asking, "We still have some extra clothes, which are cotton, do you want to give them some." ”

Wei Yuan thought about it, since Xiao Jinyu said so, it was definitely not a swollen face and a fat man, and it was not bad to give the extra to this girl.

"Female doll, can you use Da Zhou's silver here?"

Xiao Jinyu was inexplicably in a good mood, glanced at the girl and asked happily.

"I don't know, we all exchange cattle and sheep here, and sometimes sheepskin and cowhide can also be exchanged for things."

The most valuable thing the girl had ever seen in her life was the bracelet that Wei Yuan was going to give her just now, who knew what Da Zhou's silver could do.

"Yes! It works! ”

Ba Yatu was talking to Yi Chenzi, and when he heard Xiao Jinyu's question, he hurriedly turned his head and replied: "After this grassland, after seven or eight days' journey, you will arrive at a city, where there are many shops opened by the Great Zhou people, silver, gold, and copper coins are collected, and many merchants of the Great Zhou Dynasty sell their silk and satin to those people. ”

"Don't want copper coins, as long as ours, our copper coins are worth more than gold and silver."

After thinking about it, Bayatu hurriedly reminded again: "Your copper coins in Da Zhou are too bad, not as good as ours." ”

As if he finally thought of such a powerful thing than Da Zhou, the expression on Bayatu's face was full of pride.

Wei Yuan knew from the geographical chronicles that there were many copper mines in the Western Regions, so their copper coins were very large, and the colors were all authentic red copper, but there was a lot of demand in the Great Zhou, but there had always been very few copper mines, so many times there were many impurities in copper, and they would be bad when they were used, and they were naturally not as good as the copper coins in the Western Regions.

Those merchants took the copper coins from the Western Regions and returned to the Great Zhou Dynasty and melted them into bronze ware, and they could make a lot of money when they changed hands.

Wei Yuan saw that the girl was at a loss, and he didn't know why they were all copper coins, and they were better here, and Da Zhou's was worse.

"There is a lot of copper in your copper coins, and in Da Zhou, copper is a very valuable thing, so there are many other worthless things in our copper coins, but in some places silver is more valuable, even if your copper coins are good, they are not as valuable as silver......"

"The people there liked jewelry made of silver, and they thought that silver was more beautiful and pure than gold and copper."

Wei Yuan tried to explain to the girl simply, but he didn't expect that the more he said, the more confused she looked: "Isn't it a lie that the copper coin is mixed with other things?" ”

The girl didn't understand, why she said that it was a copper coin, and there were other things mixed in it, so could such a money still be called a copper coin?

As long as it can be circulated, it doesn't matter what kind of money it is.

Wei Yuan originally wanted to explain to the girl like this, but after thinking about this kind of thing, she definitely couldn't understand it, and thinking about the different years and months, the purchasing power of copper coins was different, just because of the impurities in it, so she couldn't help but nodded: "It's indeed a bit of a lie." ”

Wei Yuan forgot that there was a rich man who made copper coins at home.

However, Bayatu thought for a while, and then asked, "You have a lot of copper there?" How many sheep can be exchanged for a very heavy bronze vessel? ”

"How much does it weigh?"

Yi Chenzi tilted his teeth, obviously a little dissatisfied with him suddenly turning his head to talk to others.

Where could Bayatu see what Yi Chenzi meant, stood up and formed a big circle to compare, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was not big enough, and pointed to the outside and said, "It's as heavy as the six big sheep outside!" I can't lift it alone, and I have to have four warriors in our tribe to lift it together. ”

Bayatu's hand strength is not clear, but this honest man will not lie, saying that if he weighs as much as six big sheep, it will only be more, not less.

"I don't know much about this, No, you have to ask this."

Yi Chenzi raised his chin at Xiao Jinyu and said.

"The cattle and sheep of the Great Zhou are very expensive, and you will definitely not be able to exchange much for the cattle and sheep when you go to the Great Zhou, you should take the bronze ware and sell it directly to the warlocks of the Great Zhou, and then buy salt pot silk from the Great Zhou to sell it to other people in the Western Regions, so that you can probably exchange it for hundreds of sheep."

Bayatu nodded and repeated word by word, and after remembering it twice, he smirked: "Although I don't quite understand what you mean, I think it should be very useful, and when I figure it out later, I will do what you say." ”

Where did Xiao Jinyu meet a stunned person like Bayatu since she was a child, she had obviously said it so bluntly, but now she said that she couldn't understand it, and she almost vomited out of her old blood.

"Alright then, let's do it when you figure it out."

Xiao Jinyu waved her hand weakly, and there were some doubts in her heart about how Bayatu's IQ could become the leader of a small tribe?

Xiao Jinyu thought so in her heart, but she didn't expect to blurt out such a question.

This question is obviously extremely difficult for Bayatu, and he scratched his head and thought for a long time before he said unexplained: "My Ah Da is the leader of this tribe, and my Ah Da is also the leader of this tribe, so I must also be the leader of this tribe." ”

After saying that, he was happy: "You are not the son of the chief, so it is normal that you don't understand this." ”

When Wei Yuan heard Bayatu's words, he saw Xiao Jinyu's deflated appearance for the first time, and he couldn't help but laugh and endure extremely hard.

But Yi Chenzi was happy: "That's right, you're not the leader's son, what do you want to know about this?!" ”

In a blink of an eye, he looked at Bayatu and said approvingly: "That's right, just follow your own way, don't touch him if you can't think clearly, no matter how attractive that thing is, wait until you think through it before you do it, so that it is not easy to make mistakes, and you will not be deceived by others." ”

This can be regarded as an explanation to Xiao Jinyu, it is true, although Bayatu does not react quickly, he has a good memory, and more importantly, he never touches things that he doesn't understand or understand, so this may be the reason why he can always be this leader.

After three days, Yi Chenzi said that he wanted to continue leaving, and sent some salt and spices to Bayatu, and sent three bags of grain and a small bag of salt to the girl's family.

The girl's father, who couldn't see her age, thanked Wei Yuan and them repeatedly, and Wei Yuan also made it very clear that this was used to exchange for the girl's sheep, presumably with these bags of food, the girl's family would have an easier time this winter.

When Wei Yuan and the others were about to leave, they heard singing from a tent, and it sounded like the girl.

"This is to bless us with peace, because she doesn't want to see us part, so she sings us off."

Yi Chenzi listened for a while and explained seriously.

"How do you know?"

Wei Yuan has always been skeptical of Yi Chenzi's words, if this person hadn't been a warlock, he would definitely be an old liar who came with his mouth open.

"That's what the lyrics say!"

Yi Chenzi habitually rolled his eyes upward, and then the corners of his mouth pulled, and an expression of disgust and disdain came out.

Although Wei Yuan wanted to ask him how he understood the Western Regions, thinking about Yi Chenzi's attitude dispelled this thought.

The girl sang for a long time, and after they had walked out for a long time, Wei Yuan could still faintly hear the hoarse singing.
