Chapter 923: Giant Plains (I) asks for a monthly pass, a subscription, and a recommendation
The good journey went off track......
By the end of the day, when Solam and the others entered and crossed the Giant Plains, the entire team had expanded to more than eight hundred! The vast majority of them were small caravans of a few dozen people.
It is also because of this that the whole team seems to be chaotic, like a circus, very eye-catching. The indigenous giants of the Giant Plains were all attracted to it.
Giant Plains, one of the largest giant settlements in the Faren Continent. Here, you can see almost every subspecies of giants except for the high-ranking giants, and even the frost giants are found only in the northlands, and they are also found in small quantities in the northeastern part of the Giant's Plains. (To the northeast of the Giant's Plains is the Giant's Run Range, where there are Frost Giants)
What fire giants, stone giants, cyclops, hill giants and other subspecies all came to watch Solam them. The atmosphere of the team was very tense.
Fortunately, with Loris, those giants are not too likely to make any drastic moves after feeling the breath of the superior giants, and even those more friendly giants will be cautious to make some transactions with the caravan.
Among the creatures of giants, there are still very few very bad guys, except for some evil subspecies, most of the giants are actually quite easy to get along with, most of them have upright personalities, and when they are not angry, they are not vicious. But this does not make ordinary people eliminate their fear of giants.
Because the giants are so huge, even if these guys don't get angry, they can kill a lot of people if they just move a little bigger. And most of the giants are relatively thick and leafy, so it is not too common to accidentally crush a short human to death.
And when the giant is angry, it is relatively easy to get on the head, and once he gets angry, he ignores it, and it is very easy to cause some unnecessary damage.
So on the continent, the giants are not very popular.
But Solam was very fond of these big men, for no other reason than his strange fetishes, and the more fierce he looked, the more interested he became. Just like he likes monsters, most of those giant subspecies are not good-looking, even if they have good personalities, they all look fierce and look vicious.
And after getting along, Soram found that although these guys have a slower brain, they really don't have a personality, they are definitely the personalities that Soram likes, all of them are very sincere, compared to those humans, the giants' personalities are really too cute.
Solam's friendliness to the giants naturally affected the rest of the team, and some of the brave guys saw that Soram was talking happily with those giants, so they had the courage to take Solam's east wind and start doing business with those giants.
The brave are always rewarded handsomely, and the first guy to eat the crab quickly traded a few barrels of liquor from the giant for some cherished giant skins! It's definitely a profitable business.
So when this brave man returned to the team, the whole team was in a stir! How much is a few barrels of spirits worth? A bucket is only three gold coins at most! And how much is a giant beast skin worth? Even if those giant beasts are not magic beasts, just the huge size knows that a few hundred gold coins are absolutely stable!
The rate of return, hundreds of percent!
This rate of return is enough for any merchant to fight hard, so one by one, the stimulated merchants begin to desperately come to the giant's side to want to trade. In the end, if it weren't for the giant, because he couldn't understand the lingua franca, he saw a group of people rushing over, and one was excited, and trampled a few unlucky people to death. Otherwise, the scene is even more difficult to control!
After the dead man, the merchants stopped for a while. But still can't resist the terrifying rate of return, so a group of businessmen discussed, and collectively found Solam, saying that they were willing to partner and make money, so that Solam could be an intermediary and do business with the giant, no way, the giant language is very obscure, and ordinary people just want to learn nowhere to learn.
But how could Soram ignore these people? How much can they contribute? Solam is weird.
But unexpectedly, as soon as Soram's side rejected these merchants, the giant's side sent a giant to find him, hoping that Soram could help, and they also wanted to exchange supplies with humans. The giants are powerful and huge, but in fact, their lives are not good, they don't know how to produce, and they can only hunt in their current position.
The giants with low production levels have a very large demand for some daily products, such as wine, although the giants can't make wine, but they are all pot-bellied men, so the demand for wine is very large, otherwise they won't use giant animal skins in exchange, don't they know the value of giant animal skins?
(Except for the Cloud Giant, there are basically no giants who can make wine, even the Storm Giants, they have to find the Cloud Giants if they want to drink)
Maybe they really don't know, but it's definitely more expensive than wine, and they know that, but so what? It was not difficult for them to ask for hides, but it was difficult to get wine, because few people would trade with giants.
It's one thing to be afraid of giants, the most important thing is the language barrier!
It's not that there are people in this world who don't do business with giants, but they are with some higher giants, such as fire giants or frost giants. Because the two are smarter, most of them have lingua franca. (Cloud Giants and Storm Giants rarely appear in front of the world, so it's hard to find them, let alone make a deal)
But unfortunately, these two giant subspecies are evil giants, and they really can't play with these business guys without any skills, and they are very easy to be hacked. And ordinary giants have little oil and water, and those who really have the ability are too lazy to do business with these ordinary giants.
The merchant who is not strong does not understand the language of the giant, the language is not comprehensible, and the giant is not usually a patient master, so it is easy to cause some trouble. As a result, it naturally created a dilemma that it was difficult for ordinary giants to obtain human materials.
Well, now that Soram's appearance has given the giants a glimpse of the light of day, this dwarf human is not only not afraid of them, but he is very kind to them, and more importantly, he also knows the ancient language of giants!
For giants, the ancient language of giants is equivalent to the language of giants and nobles, and those who can speak this language will definitely be treated preferentially among giants!
(Giants' understanding of nobility is different from that of humans, giant nobles are giants whose bloodlines are closer to the Titans, and the language of these giants is derived from the Titan language, which is very close to Titans, and any giant can understand it, but there are very few who can speak it)
Not giants, absolutely will not understand their cult of the Titans. Even the evil Fire Giants and Frost Giants worship the Titans no weaker than the others, because that is the source of all giants.
