Happiness came so suddenly.

Originally, the main task of the second trading fleet this time was to go to the leopard tribe to exchange for more wheat, but I didn't expect the Aoki tribe to trade again, and I didn't expect that this time the Aoki tribe would trade so many "things", and it was about to catch up with the sum of the first trade and the second trade.

So much so that the second trading fleet could not transport all the "things" traded at once, and had to be traded in two batches.

Zhao Lin and Yingxi, who were in charge of handing over the Aoki tribe, once again made meritorious contributions, however, this time the merit was equivalent to second-class merit at most, and the meritorious service of the Ministry of Commerce personnel mainly relied on contacting the new tribe and completing the transaction, and with the increase in the number of transactions, even if the things traded were equal, the size of the merit would continue to decline.

In fact, after completing the two transactions, the two tribes are familiar with each other, and it is okay for the dragon tribe to exchange newcomers to trade in the past.

Not only Zhao Lin and Eagle Xi have made meritorious contributions, but everyone in the second trade fleet will be rewarded for completing a transaction of such a scale, and Hu Biao, who leads the second trade fleet, can get second-class merit, and the merit of other fleet personnel is not as good as third-class merit, probably after the transaction between the Dragon Tribe and the Aoki tribe is successfully completed, they will all receive a certain amount of beast meat as a reward.

As for Hu Biao's second-class merit, Hu Biao is one of the high-level leaders of the Dragon Tribe, and the credit is no longer important to Hu Biao, he has no shortage of women, beast meat, bronze utensils, linen, and animal skins can be taken casually, and now Hu Biao's most thought is to do his best to make the Dragon Tribe stronger under the leadership of the king.

The second trade fleet quickly returned to Yangcheng, did not go to Yangcheng, turned directly into the source river, and finally stopped at Yuancheng.

Knowing that the second trading fleet had returned, Su Yan, who was inspecting the source city, quickly rushed to the dock, and Hu Biao gave a brief report on what the second trading fleet had encountered on this trip.

"It's not in vain that I gave those rattan shields and rattan armor to the Aoki tribe." Knowing that the Aoki tribe had once again launched a war to destroy another tribe, Su Yan smiled.

Sure enough, if you give equipment to improve the strength of the Aoki tribe, the ambition of the Aoki tribe will increase, and the dragon tribe will be able to gain more at a small price.

The second trade fleet brought back two hundred and fifty people, and the next batch has nearly two hundred people, there are already hundreds of servants on the source city side, and it is not suitable for new servants to live in a short period of time, and now it is more than an hour before dark, temporarily rest in source city for one night, and let the second trade fleet send people to Akagi tomorrow.

There is only one thing that is a little troublesome, the Aoki tribe needs a total of one hundred and fifty vine armors, and all the fifty vine armors carried by the second trading fleet before were traded to the Aoki tribe, and now there is still a shortage of one hundred vine armors.

The rattan armor of the dragon tribe is better than the rattan armor made by many tribes such as the Aoki tribe and the Japanese tribe, mainly because the materials and production process of the rattan armor have been improved, especially in the production process, other tribes just weave the rattan into large and small blocks, and finally connect them with grass ropes.

The Dragon Tribe rattan armor and rattan shield also have to go through multiple processes such as soaking, drying, oil immersion, and oiling, and the thickness of the rattan shield rattan armor is about the same, but the defense of the Dragon Tribe rattan shield rattan armor after multiple processes is higher.

The defense power is improved, and the production time of the dragon tribe's rattan shield rattan armor has also increased, and the production period of a rattan armor or a rattan shield is as long as half a month, so that dozens or even more than a hundred rattan shield rattan armor can be produced in a batch.

If the Aoki tribe needs a large number of rattan shields, this is easy to solve, the rattan shields used by the dragon tribe and the rattan shields used by the Aoki tribe are the same specification, and they have not been changed, and the dragon tribe has enough rattan shield reserves.

Now the Aoki tribe needs a large number of rattan armor, but the rattan armor needs to vary according to the body shape, the Aoki tribesmen can't wear the rattan armor in the shape of the dragon tribe, and the rattan armor traded to the Aoki tribe is newly made according to the body shape of the Aoki tribe.

During the first transaction, the Aoki tribe exchanged for a batch of rattan shields, and the rattan shields were needed, and the rattan armor would naturally be needed, Su Yan and Lu Yuan both understood this matter, so Su Yan hurriedly asked the clansmen to make a batch of rattan armor that conformed to the body shape of the male clan of the Aoki tribe.

Of the one hundred and twenty rattan armors produced in the first and second batches, fifty were taken away by the first trading fleet, and the rest were given away or traded, and the third batch of rattan armor was about to be released, but only sixty pieces were needed, and forty pieces were still needed to meet the needs of the Aoki tribe.

After thinking about it for a while, Su Yan didn't think of where to find a way to solve the forty pieces of rattan armor, unless the first trading fleet could return, and the fifty pieces of vine armor carried by the first trading fleet had not been traded out.

The possibility of the first trade fleet returning quickly is very small, after all, the first trade fleet is opening up new trade routes, and it will take about a month or so to return, and it is difficult to trade people when opening new trade routes, and the fleet is not loaded, so it is impossible to return directly.

If the rattan armor is missing, it will be missing, and the remaining forty pieces will be brought to the Aoki tribe in the third batch, and when the second batch is traded, another fifty rattan shields will be given to the Aoki tribe as an apology.

This time, the Aoki tribe only exchanged forty rattan shields, and the rattan armor requirement is one hundred and fifty pieces, which is very interesting, under normal circumstances, a warrior should be equipped with a rattan armor and a rattan shield, and the rattan shield obtained by the Aoki tribe before plus the newly exchanged rattan shield can almost match the number of rattan armor.

However, the Aoki tribe has launched two wars, and the rattan shield is far inferior to the copper shield, and in the war, the rattan armor will have a lot of losses.

If Lu Yuan is here, he can almost reach the same conclusion as Su Yan: the Aoki tribe also wants to get more vine shields, but there is nothing more to exchange for rattan shields.

The second trading fleet rested for a few days, waiting for the third batch of sixty rattan armors to be released, and then set sail for the Aoki tribe with the vine armor.

The dragon tribe is about to start the production of the fourth batch of rattan armor and rattan shield, this time Su Yan decided to expand the production capacity, and it is difficult to expand the production capacity of the source city by much, but the two cities of Chicheng and Zhucheng can make rattan armor and rattan shields, and the output of a batch of rattan armor must reach more than 100 pieces, and the output of rattan shields will be increased appropriately until the inventory of rattan armor and rattan shields reaches a certain level and then reduce the output.

……

The second trade fleet arrived at the Aoki tribe, and the dragon tribe did not carry enough rattan armor in the second batch of trade, which only made the leader of Aoki frown, and soon showed a smile under the apology of the fifty-faced rattan shield, and gestured to say that the Aoki tribe was not in a hurry.

The Aoki tribe already lacked intact dragon clan rattan shields, and now they can get fifty rattan shields for free, can the Aoki leader not be happy, anyway, the next time the dragon tribe's fleet will bring the remaining rattan armor over.

Although there were forty rattan shields missing, the leader of the second batch of transactions Aoki directly asked the dragon tribe fleet to take away the remaining population and all the animal skins, and the dragon tribe showed its pride, and the Aoki tribe also had to be refreshed as a tribute.
