For more than ten days in the following days, Ellie followed Meng Chen every day to learn the language of the people of southern Xinjiang.

In less than half a month, Ellie has been able to communicate with Meng Chen in southern Xinjiang dialect.

This day happened to be the middle of the month, and it was also the trading day agreed between Meng Chen and several village elders.

Meng Chen led Ellie and five miners to wait early in the northern mountain pass.

At this time, a huge curtain hung on the wall of a fortress in the northern pass.

On this curtain, the goods that the City of Hope is willing to purchase and the price of exchange are marked in two languages, Southern Xinjiang and Huaxia.

Near noon, the caravan from the four villages finally arrived outside the parapet.

After greeting each other, Mu Lao looked at Ellie who was standing beside Meng Chen with a curious expression.

Meng Chen smiled and introduced, "Mu Lao, this is the newly appointed trade manager of the Lord, Ellie. All transactions of the Otera people henceforth will be under the sole authority of Ellie. ”

"This ......" Mu Lao and the three village elders all showed hesitant expressions.

Ellie bowed slightly, and said to Mu Lao and the others in Southern Xinjiang dialect: "I am the new trade director Ellie, and I will ask you for more advice in the future!" ”

"This ...... Miss Ellie, can you speak southern Xinjiang? Mu Lao said in surprise.

Meng Chen nodded and said, "During this time, I have been teaching the people of Ocellier to use the language of Southern Xinjiang, and Ellie is one of them!" ”

Although there is no communication barrier, Mu Lao and the others are still reluctant to deal with Ellie.

Mu Lao and the others pulled Meng Chen aside.

Mu Lao said softly, "Little Brother Meng, how can you teach the people of Oseril to speak Southern Xinjiang? Haven't you heard the saying that the disciples of the church starve their masters to death? ”

Meng Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry about this! The Chief, appointed as the Minister of the Interior, has the same status as the village elders, which is much higher than before. ”

Huang Lao from Huangshi Village interjected: "As a woman, Miss Ellie is always bad for her to do this kind of showy business, right?" ”

"That's right!" Several other village elders nodded their heads repeatedly.

Meng Chen waved his hand and said, "There is no difference between men and women in Oseril. Besides, this is a decision made by the Chief, and we have no reason or right to refuse. ”

"Hey~!"

The village elders sighed, and could only accept this established fact.

Afterwards, Mu Lao and the others put on smiling faces and came to Ellie to slap their ass, boasting about how beautiful and smart Ellie is......

Faced with the sugar-coated cannonballs of Mu Lao and others, Ellie happily accepted the sugar-coated shells and threw the cannonballs back.

Meng Chen stood aside with a smile on his face, observing the transaction process between Aili and Mu Lao and the others.

Ellie's IQ is very high, and she basically won't be fooled by these old foxes.

Of course, occasionally there are some mistakes and omissions, and Meng Chen will also give prompts in time.

This made Mu Lao and the others secretly grit their teeth at Meng Chen.

After the transaction, Meng Chen commented in his heart, "I believe that after one or two more exercises, Ellie will be able to do this job." ”

In this transaction, the City of Hope harvested a total of nearly 2,000 stones of white quality metal ore and nearly 4,000 stones of gray quality metal ore.

City of Hope paid 610 sets of weapons and equipment, including 300 sets of swordsman equipment, 200 sets of marksman equipment, 80 sets of elite swordsman equipment and 30 sets of elite marksman equipment.

Meng Chen did not do the matter of checking the ore himself, but handed it over to five miners.

Although miners cannot distinguish the color of the ore, they can still distinguish the type and quality of the ore.

Two hours later, the deal was closed, and it should have been Meng Chen's most relaxed trade.

Before Mu Lao left, Meng Chen quietly pulled Mu Lao to a no-man's corner.

Meng Chen arched his hand and said, "I wonder if Mu Lao is willing to trade the fierce beasts and village maps of Southern Xinjiang?" ”

Mu Laohu glanced at Meng Chen suspiciously, shook his head and refused: "Little Brother Meng, don't you know how precious such a map is?" Hugh said that the map of the entire southern Xinjiang, even if it is a map with a radius of 300 miles, it is impossible for the old man to trade it! ”

"Mu Lao, the price is negotiable, how about ten sets of elite swordsman equipment?" Meng Chen said tentatively.

Mu Lao firmly refused: "No! It's not about the price! ”

Meng Chen thought for a while and said, "Old Mu, otherwise. All you need is the Fierce Beast Map of Dilong Valley within a radius of 100 miles, and the Fierce Beast Map from Dilong Valley to Manniu Village. How about the location of other villages without marking them? ”

When Mu Lao heard this, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and he said slowly: "This can be considered!" But...... Price ......"

Meng Chen said categorically: "Thirty sets of elite swordsman equipment, this is the greatest authority under it. Mu Lao, on the map, you must not hide your secrets! ”

Mu Lao's face was overjoyed, and he immediately replied: "Deal!" ”

Later, Mu Lao hid in an ox cart and took out his map to transcribe it.

Half an hour later, Mu Lao handed a stack of straw paper to Meng Chen, and said earnestly: "This map is the result of generations of exploration in my Shanli Village, and I don't know how many people's lives have been paid for it. Although it is not guaranteed that all the fierce beasts will be included, more than eighty percent of the fierce beasts within a radius of 100 miles can be found in this map. ”

Then, Mu Lao continued: "Manniu Village is located more than two hundred miles north of Dilong Valley. There are two paths on the map, and the beasts along the way have been marked. Little Brother Meng, after the transaction, this map has nothing to do with Shanli Village! ”

Meng Chen took the map and thanked him: "Thank you Mu Lao!" This map was obtained by accident and has nothing to do with Shanli Village! ”

After sending Mu Lao and the others out of Dilong Valley, Meng Chen immediately returned to the town hall to check the map of the fierce beasts around Dilong Valley.

This map simply depicts the general terrain of the Dilong Valley within a radius of 100 miles.

And the territory of the fierce beast and the suspected fierce beast was circled out by thick lines.

The Earth Dragon Valley is a hundred miles in circumference, and there are a total of thirteen territories of fierce beasts and suspected fierce beasts.

Most of them belong to the territory of solitary beasts, but there are also three areas where groups of beasts live.

What puzzled Meng Chen was that the southern area of Dilong Valley was painted black by Mu Lao, and he didn't know what it meant.

In the process of scanning the map, Meng Chen suddenly noticed that more than thirty miles away from the northern mountain pass of Dilong Valley, there was a name circled by a bold line - the Flamemane Lion!

"The Flaming Mane Lion? Could it be the lion beast that was lured by the Wild Cow Village? Meng Chen said secretly in his heart.

As for the path from Dilong Valley to Manniu Village, Mu Lao drew two routes of different lengths.

The longer route, which does not pass through the territory of the beast, is relatively safe.

The shorter route, which requires crossing a fierce beast territory, is relatively more dangerous.
