"Good!" Lin Yuan clapped his hands happily, and he stood up and began to pace back and forth around the numerous leather bags, admiring his trade booty.

"Your idea, is it good, my lord...... Merely...... Just by this little thing...... For nearly a month, I can only trade such a small amount of food, I'm afraid it's still not enough......"

Kua's father was on the side, frowning, looking at the dozen or so Yinhu people, and looking at the bags on the ground, the implication was very obvious, if the problem of eating in Xianyang City, thousands of people, all hoped that these were a few dwarves, it would be crazy.

Lin Yuan ignored him, he continued to pace back and forth in the skins, and then, he suddenly stopped in front of one of the skins.

"What is this?"

Lin Yuan bent down with some curiosity and took out a piece of white stuff from a leather bag, which was very hard to the touch and very light.

"Back to the king, this thing is what the patriarch of the grass clan used to exchange for my last bag of salt, and they are in charge of a thing called Bei."

"Bey?" Lin Yuan raised his eyebrows, put the white object in his hand under his nose and sniffed it, and a smell of sea came to his face.

He was immediately amused, could this be a shell? The thing that the legendary primitive man first used as money?

"Haha! King, an ordinary piece of backbone can also be exchanged for a bag of salt? These Silver Lake people you are looking for are not suitable for business at all! It's a loss-making deal! Father Kua was on the sidelines, as if he had finally found something interesting, and sneered.

Lin Yuan snorted coldly, and deliberately said to the gravel in front of his father:

"Grit! Tell me, this shell, in their grass clan...... What can I change? ”

Grit took another sip of water, seemed to think for a moment, and then said clearly:

"Back to the king, huh...... If I'm not mistaken, the patriarch of the Grass Clan told me that this thing can be exchanged for 10 Mianyang or 5 calves at any time in the Grass Clan, and if you want slaves, you can also exchange 7-8 of them, and they are all young and middle-aged slaves, and there are no old people. At this point, Grit paused, and then, as if he remembered something, he continued:

"By the way, other people of mine have also reported to me that they have also seen people in other races in the Central Plains who use this shellfish as an equivalent for trading, and its value is basically consistent with the value recognized by the grass tribe, so there are many people who propose to exchange shellfish for salt, but we don't understand this thing very well, so we are a little hesitant, because we only exchange food, but after we negotiated with them, the food in exchange is far greater than what we can drive, so there is no way, we have to follow the advice of the grass tribe, The food was temporarily stored in their tribe's tents, and then they exchanged it for the equivalent of the shellfish, and they said that we could always exchange the shellfish for the ...... as long as we wanted."

Grit said as he staggered over to the furthest skin bag from Lin Yuan, which was fuller than the others, but it didn't look too heavy.

Grit tore open the skin and dumped the contents onto the ground.

"Boom la la ......"

Bags full of shellfish are scattered all over the ground, and the white shells are particularly eye-catching on the yellow sand.

Lin Yuan was a little dizzy, and for a moment, he even thought that he had reached the beach.

"A piece of shellfish, can be exchanged for 10 sheep, dry! There are at least a thousand shells here, so how much food can you exchange for ......"

Father Kua's eyes widened in surprise, his mind overloaded, trying to figure out how much the bag of white shellfish was actually worth.

All this had long been expected by Lin Yuan.

He nodded in satisfaction, and ordered the bag to be put away and stored in his big tent, while ordering a few of the strongest Sabah men to keep watch over it day and night.

As for the other skins containing food, Lin Yuan generously gave them to those Silver Lake people as they were.

"All the relatives have worked hard! trekking through mountains and rivers, for our Xianyang plan...... This food is given to you as your reward at the right time! Go ahead! ”

The sudden reward surprised these Silver Lakers, and Grit said in surprise:

"Ahh King! This one...... Isn't it for everyone? How dare we take it to ourselves! Let's share it with everyone! We can't eat so much ......."

Lin Yuan clasped his hands to his chest and said confidently:

"Hehe, it's okay, you guys take it, it won't be long before we have countless food sources......"

"Huh??" Tong Yu, who had been standing beside Lin Yuan, couldn't help but look at him in surprise.

"Your ......, Your Majesty Make a mistake, our current food, you know it in your heart, besides, this is a few of my people, it took a month to bring back such a little food, and there are Maijishan barbarians blocking the road to the east, we can only use this way to secretly carry it, but ...... How can we have countless food sources?? ”

Lin Yuan didn't rush to answer Tong Yu, he smiled meaningfully, then turned his head to the gravel and asked:

"I'll confirm one thing with you, all the salt you brought out this time was sold to all the tribes in the Central Plains, right? Spread out as much as possible? ”

"Back to the king! Yes, strictly according to your requirements. ”

"Excellent! Very good! Very good! Lin Yuan said happily, then he looked at Tongyu and said:

"You know what? The salt they took away this time is actually not a lot, so I estimate that this time, the Central Plains tribes are probably starting to worry about the dwindling salt...... As you all know, once you get used to eating flavorful food, it's hard to go back to the bland and tasteless food of the past...... Especially the high-ranking tribal leaders, who will only need salt more and more......"

"Therefore, in less than half a month, salt will become a very precious thing in the Central Plains......"

Tongyu listened carefully to Lin Yuan's words, as if she was trying to understand, and then she asked:

"This ...... Why? ”

Lin Yuan smiled and said softly:

"In our hometown, there is an old saying that rare things are precious......"

"Scarcity is expensive...... Seems to make some sense......"

Lin Yuan patted Tongyu lightly again, then took a deep breath, turned around and walked in the direction of the rising sun, paced a few steps slightly, put his hands behind his back, and said:

"And! I dare to guarantee that in less than three months, we will not need to spend a single soldier, and all the barbarians in Maijishan will be wiped out!!! ”

"Ah!??h The crowd exclaimed.

Lin Yuan's words really startled everyone.

Without a single soldier? Could it be that King Yan is going to perform some miracles?
