Chapter 59: Why Are You Pulling Me?

"It's you, the patriarch." Originally, the clansmen were ready to be angry, but when they saw that it was the most beloved patriarch who was startled, they suddenly changed their words, and raised the cloth in their arms high like a treasure: "Patriarch, my cloth is beautiful, right?" The price of those merchants was so fair that twenty hides could be exchanged for one...... What's the name? They seem to say what it's called...... What's the matter? ”

"Silk!"

"Yes, it's called silk, it's a strange name, or the patriarch will name it, woolen cloth, and when you hear it, it's a cloth woven from wool...... It's so apt. While showing off, the tribesmen also complimented their patriarch by the way.

"You got this silk from the caravan?" Mutt's voice was soft, and his eyes were tearful as he looked at the man in his arms.

"Patriarch, what's wrong with you?" The clansmen were taken aback, he hadn't seen his patriarch like this, so he couldn't help shrinking back: "Patriarch, let me tell you, although I'm not married yet, I don't like men's ......."

"Shut up." The blue tendons on the forehead of Mutt were 'abrupt' and provoked, and the black lines on his head were full: "Answer my question honestly." ”

"Yes, it's the caravan." The tribesmen hurriedly said: "And not only silk, but also a very beautiful thing called porcelain, which is amazing, it can actually integrate flowers into it, but unfortunately although it is beautiful, it is not practical, and almost no one buys it...... Eh, Patriarch, why are you going? You go to the front, first bring your goods, they want animal skins, gems, pearls and jade, they don't give you the goods. ”

"......" But Mutt was in no mood to answer him, he only had one thought now, faster, faster......

When he ran in front of the tribe, he froze......

"Come and see, this is the most beautiful porcelain, smooth and translucent, and the sound is beautiful...... a fat man in a brocade robe is holding two porcelain bowls and selling: "This is our top master in Datang who burns ...... by hand."

However, all the natives set their sights on silk, and although they were full of envy for the porcelain in his hand, none of them came up to ask for the price.

"Boss, our porcelain is not easy to sell." Seeing this, a young man dressed as a guy said with a bitter face: "After walking so many tribes, we have only sold two carts of porcelain, and they have been sold to their nobles. ”

"No way, the market is wrong." The fat man wiped his sweat and said helplessly: "In terms of exquisiteness, our porcelain is not much worse than silk, but our porcelain has a fatal flaw, that is, it is not practical, at least it is impractical for them." Porcelain is not a wooden bowl and plate used by the natives, porcelain is too fragile, it will shatter if you bump it slightly, don't forget, this Luzon Island is all native, they are still uncivilized savages, how can they use porcelain?

But silk is different, even if it is not cut, it is very beautiful on the body, and such a thing is naturally liked by everyone. ”

"Hey." The young man sighed: "But our sales are indeed not as good as Wu Boss, we have to think of a way, if we continue like this, we may not be able to sell a batch of porcelain after a trip, and we may be punished if we go back." ”

"People don't want to buy it, what can I do?" The fat man said helplessly.

"How do you sell this porcelain?" A man came to the porcelain stall and asked.

"The small porcelain is two animal skins each, and a set of utensils and twenty animal skins, and the price is about the same as silk." When the fat man saw that someone was coming to ask for the price, he immediately said enthusiastically: "Brother, don't think that porcelain is easy to break, so it is not as affordable as silk...... Why are you pulling me...... Ignore him, let me tell you the truth, silk is indeed affordable, but how long can clothes made of silk last...... Don't pull me...... Especially in your jungle, two years will be the sky...... But as long as you take good care of our porcelain, it will not be a problem to use it for a hundred years...... What the hell do you want to do? ”

The fat man stopped talking, glared at the young man, and yelled, "Why are you pulling me? We haven't opened yet, and finally a guest came, and if we don't open again, we're really going to go back with a car full of porcelain, what do you want? ”

"Boss, no, I ......" The young man's hellish expression pointed at the guest and stumbled, but he just couldn't say it.

"Don't point at the guest......" The fat man slapped the young man's hand away, made an apologetic expression and said: "I'm sorry guest, my guy is ignorant, don't mind." ”

"It's okay." Guests don't care and wave their hands.

"That's good, that's good." The fat man wiped his sweat and continued to flicker: "Come, let's continue to talk about porcelain, although this porcelain is indeed a little brittle, but as long as you handle it gently, it will not be a problem to use it for a hundred years...... Eh, I always feel like something is wrong? ”

The fox glanced at the young man suspiciously: "Do you feel that something is wrong?" ”

"Nothing is right, right? And the most abnormal part is that ......" The young man complained: "Boss, don't you think it's abnormal to talk to an indigenous person very smoothly in Chinese?" ”

"~" The fat man finally reacted, staring at the guest with wide eyes: "Brother, where did you learn your official language?" It's even more standard than me. ”

"Is this the problem?" The guest was Mutt, who smiled with tears in his eyes when he heard this: "What you should ask me is, how can I speak the official language of the Tang Dynasty?" ”

"Yes, yes, that's how it should be...... How did you get the official language? ”

"It's very simple, I'm originally a Tang person."

"Originally a Tang person?" The fat man and the young man looked at each other in confusion: "What do you mean??" ”

"It's literal." Mutt's tears became more and more intense: "I was originally a fisherman in Datang, but I was hit by a storm when I went out to sea to fish, and I was swept here......"

Mute told him about his situation, and the more he talked about it, the more tears he had, so that in the end they all turned into crying, and the fat man hurriedly stepped forward to comfort: "I'm sorry, brother, when you talk about your sadness, don't cry, look at your people, they still think we bullied you, you better explain it to them...... Besides, the big boy bleeds without tears......"

"I'm sorry for the joke." Mute wiped away a handful of tears, looked at the tribesmen who gradually gathered around, holding various blades in their hands, and quickly explained: "Don't be nervous, these people are my compatriots, don't worry." ”

"Chief, is it really okay?" Some people asked, no one said anything about Mutt's saying that the fat man was his compatriot, because the people of the entire tribe in the ball knew that Mutt's origin was mysterious, and at the beginning, some people wanted to check his origin, but then Mutt's credit became bigger and bigger, and no one said anything anymore, so although he was surprised that Mutt and the Tang people were compatriots, no one felt that it was inappropriate.

Mutt shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's all my own family, it's our friends." ”

"That's right, don't worry, we're all friends." The fat man also stood up and laughed: "It's rare to meet my comrades today, I have a treat today, and everyone can take the porcelain on this car." ”

"How's that going to work?" Seeing this, Mute hurriedly shook his head and said: "You are guests from afar, and I, as the host, have no reason to let the guests entertain - sons, let's light a bonfire and welcome our guests." ”

"Oh~"
