In addition to these, there is a more important cargo ———— cotton.

For food, Mitsushou tasted a little bit of everything.

The taste of dried apples is quite good. In the concept of the northern barbarians, anything that is sweet is delicious and expensive.

The quality of the dried fish is excellent, and there is no strong fishy smell in the impression, so I tear off a piece by hand and stuff it into my mouth, and the more I chew it, the more fragrant it becomes.

As the leader of Dazhai, Guangshou is quite knowledgeable. Many years ago, he had seen cheese at a large gathering where the Ox King of Blackhorn City had gathered all the village leaders, and he was fortunate enough to get a small piece. The luxurious feeling of the strong fragrance lingering on the tip of the tongue for a long time is still unforgettable.

Surprised, he scooped a small piece of cheese with a knife and put it in his mouth, and the long-lost taste immediately awakened from the depths of his memory.

"You...... You still have this? Guangshou couldn't swallow this mouthful of cheese, and asked with a shocked face, "How did this come about?" ”

Tianhao's face was filled with a mysterious light, but his smile looked a little cheap: "Cheese...... As long as there is milk, it will do. As for the specific method, Brother Guangshou, you know. ”

Guangshou is older than him, and under the premise that everyone around him can be regarded as a wolf, Tianhao will call each other "big brother" no matter what the leader of the village he sees.

The priest of Shanyuan Village is called Wu Cheng. He was a little puzzled: "Really? ”

"You can try it yourself." Tianhao squinted his eyes and smiled, but everyone understood that it was a joke.

"Good stuff indeed." Guangshou picked up a few eggs casually, stuffed them into the depths of the ashes with temperature on the edge of the firepit, and cleared his throat vigorously: "Now, let's talk about the price!" ”

"I want ore." Barbarian negotiations don't need as many complicated steps as civilized times, and it's best to get straight to the point, otherwise they'll think you're deliberately perfunctory by dragging them around. Doing so will either lead to the failure of the negotiation, or the other party will be provoked and directly pick up the tomahawk and cut off your head.

"Ore?" Guangshou didn't expect this to be the other party's demand at all. Puzzled, he asked, "You want to build a weapon?" To go to war? ”

"The location of the rock village is not very good, uneasy." Tianhao's words were half-true: "I have to keep an eye on the Deer Clan, and I have to be careful of the Tiger Clan." In addition, there are the pig clans, those guys have a tendon in their brains, and they are easily impulsive...... Brother Guangshou, it's not easy for me! ”

"I didn't say it, everyone is a Niu brother, I will definitely help if I can." Guangshou was determined that it was acceptable to use ore as an exchange condition, and he even felt that his side had taken advantage.

After all, ore doesn't cost money, as long as you spend effort, and the quantity is huge, as much as you want.

Food is different. Let's talk about eggs! Shanyuan Village also raises chickens, but those damn walking birds just don't lay eggs, and they are getting fatter and fatter, which is really eye-catching. In the end, he simply slaughtered it with a knife and threw it into the pot to stew the soup.

"Then it's decided, and in the future, we will trade at the price negotiated today. I'll provide the grain, and Brother Guangshou, you're responsible for providing the ore. ”

Everyone was satisfied with the outcome of the negotiations, and both the priests and stewards of Shanyuanzhai agreed with Guangshou.

The atmosphere in the room quickly became lively, and Tianhao also took the opportunity to change the topic.

"Brother Guangshou, in fact, I have an additional request for this time."

Guangshou, who was on the rise, didn't care, and waved his hand: "It's all Niu clan brothers, just say it!" ”

"My eldest brother has taken a fancy to a girl in your village, and I hope that Brother Guangshou can become it."

……

When Tianfeng appeared in front of her, Ali felt that she must be dreaming.

"You...... It's you? The trembling voice sounded so unreal, and Ali suspected that she must have been exposed to too much sun, and her brain was a little dizzy.

"It's me." The tall Tianfeng didn't care about the eyes around him, and directly reached out to hold her in his arms: "I'll marry you." ”

……

With Guangshou, the leader of the village, coming forward, things would be much easier.

Ali's father, Yuroku, was stunned by the marriage introduced by the chief. The accident was certain, and in front of the wizards and stewards in the village, he smiled and agreed. When these people left, and he was the only one left in the house, he immediately became gloomy and angry.

Ali didn't come home until the evening. Youlu followed the instructions of the steward and found the room where Tianhao and the others were resting. At a glance, he saw his daughter sitting with Tianfeng.

After all, this is a mountain source village, even if he gets the permission of the leader Guangshou, there is absolutely no reason to directly take Ali away silently. Tianhao stopped Youlu, who wanted to break in, pulled him to sit down by the fire, and happily pulled around, so he blew for more than an hour, and then returned to his original position and talked about the marriage on both sides.

"Ali is the woman my eldest brother fancies, so I have to marry and marry if I don't."

"Your leader has already agreed to this matter, so don't tell me anything you don't agree with."

"Hehe, you said that Ali has already promised it to others? So who do you tell us? Call him over and let's have a good talk. ”

"That's all I have to say. Old thing, don't give him a face, don't be ashamed, Lao Tzu patiently told you so much to give you face. Believe it or not, I'm going to say hello to your leader right now and sell your house like a pig? ”

"In a word, you can do it yourself."

Tianhao actually didn't want to be so tough. Marriage is a good thing, and it is good to be able to get the blessing of the elders of both parties. When he came, he learned about the situation from Pingjun, and he knew some things on the surface, and he was also looking for the secret secrets in secret. For now, it's generally good: Ali is willing to marry Tianfeng and leave the village forever with him.

Things have come to this point, and Yulu finally understands that he can't change anything by his own personal will.

He retreated to the next best thing, which was actually his real purpose in the first place.

"Well, do as you say. But there is one thing, this bride price must be given no matter what! The old man spoke viciously, and his face reflected in the firelight stood out hideous.

His request was expected by Tianhao.

For more than half an hour, people listened to Youlu's mouth foaming at the mouth and talking about the variety and quantity of the bride price.

100 kg of dried fish.

500 kilograms of fine noodles.

Five Bighorn Deer.

Five wild boars.

One hundred kilograms of salt.

Fifty horses of fine cloth......

There are more than a hundred of them. Youlu is very shrewd, and he also counted all kinds of daily utensils, including clay pots, tongs, bowls and chopsticks, and firewood knives...... Of course, he did not forget about cider and cheese. These two things are new goods produced in Panshi Village, and Youlu has just heard about them from the steward and priest of the village. He was very greedy, and he asked for 100 kilograms of each of the two things.

"Who the hell do you think you are?" For this kind of person, Tianhao never spoke politely: "If you want to change to Panshi Village, Lao Tzu will chop you directly with a knife." ”

The old Youlu belongs to the kind of crazy people who are willing to give up everything for money. He howled at the top of his throat: "That's my daughter, the most beautiful woman in the entire Shanyuan Village." ”

"Keep it for yourself, then!" Tianhao shrugged his shoulders: "My eldest brother doesn't want it." Hum! On his terms, what kind of woman does he want, why hang himself on this tree? ”

The tug-of-war went on for a long time.

Many villagers from Shanyuan Village came to watch.

Youlu is very thick-skinned, and he relies on this trick to be invincible. But he soon found that the young leader in front of him was even more shameless than himself. All the good things are said, and the other party just doesn't get in the oil and salt. In the end, I had to reduce the number by half on the basis of the various items I had put forward before, and finally finalized the bride price.

Late at night, Youlu scolded and slowly walked back to the hut where he lived.

In the distance, Guangshou, the leader of Shanyuan Village, and Wu Cheng, the priest in the village, stood in the dark shadows and watched. When the crowd around them dispersed, there was a dead silence, and Guangshou, who was in the prime of life, chuckled and shook his head: "Youlu, this guy, this time the loss is determined." ”

Although Wu Cheng is old, his eyes are well maintained and he can see everything clearly. He gently stroked the beard on his chin with his fingers, and said thoughtfully, "Youlu shouldn't have offended the people of Panshi Village, right?" I think this time Ah Hao came over more than just to talk to us about business. Maybe ......"

"That's for sure." Guangshou is a bystander, and Ali has heard about it to some extent. He interrupted Wu Cheng's words: "Obviously, Ah Hao is making a trick for Youlu to drill into it by himself." Think about it, Ah Hao is also the master of a village, Panshi Village is much better now than in the past, thousands of people up and down, and those things he took out today, not to mention that we don't have them in the village, even if they are red hoof city and Thunderhorn City, they may not always be sold. ”

"It shouldn't be!" Wu Cheng felt very puzzled: "Youlu is indeed greedy for money, but he is very bold. Of course, in Ali's marriage, Youlu did a very inauthentic job. Now it's not what it used to be, and it's Brother Ah Hao who is marrying, in fact, things don't need to be so complicated at all, as his leader, tell us directly, and he will definitely marry Ali in the past. As for the bride price...... Just take it easy. ”

"That's why I said that Youlu must be finished this time. However, I still can't see what Hao wants to do. Guangshou crossed his arms and hugged him across his chest, and he was very sure about this: "Whatever!" I don't like this guy Youlu either, if it weren't for the fact that there has been no shortage of food in our village in the past few years, I would have sold him a long time ago and let him get out of the house as soon as possible. Speaking of which, this time it was Ah Hao who helped me solve a problem. ”

After all, the priest Wu Cheng has a long-term view than Guangshou: "I'm worried that someone is gossiping behind my back." After all, Ah Hao is a person from Panshi Village. ”

"If you want to say it, let them say it!" Mitsushou didn't care about this: "Every day is meat and cakes, and I have to get something else to change the taste." What's more, Ah Hao's asking price is not high, and the mountains near us are full of ores. This kind of thing is also a rock village, if you want to change someone else, I'm afraid we don't want to give it in vain. ”

Everything is a benefit. On the premise of making a lot of money, there is nothing that cannot be negotiated. What's more, in Guangshou's view, just one Youlu, plus one Ali, is not as good as the long-term cooperation with Panshizhai in any case.

Who said barbarians don't have brains?

……

This winter did not advance, and the autumn tiger firmly occupied the world, fading at an extremely slow pace.

The people of Panshi Village came twice, and the old woman Osmanthus who likes to sing is also among them. Tianhao is very generous and trustworthy. In addition to the first material exchange with Shanyuan Village, it also brought a bride price to Youlu, who was eager to wear it. There are also a lot of things that have been negotiated, and Tianhao is fully prepared in this regard. He made a lot of noise, and everyone in the entire Shanyuan Village knew that Ali was married to the eldest brother of the leader of the Rock Village. He was a good man, the head of a hundred, loyal and honest, tall and handsome.

On the day the bride price was delivered, the entire Shanyuan Village was a sensation. Especially the women in the village who are of marriage age, they look at Tianfeng, their eyes are almost glued to him, and they are all jealous that Ali is married well.

Women and old women who already have husbands are also jealous. They value a generous bride price. It is no exaggeration to say that these things are enough to support a small village of 100 people. Looking at Youlu, who was almost crazy with fun, the mothers-in-law were sneering one by one, sourly pinching their teeth.

Greedy people are never satisfied. To accept this huge amount of bride price, it is still not enough. He took Tianfeng's hand and talked vigorously about the difficulty of raising Ali, and shouted that if his daughter got married, there would be no one to support him. Tianfeng could only remain silent about this, but Tianhao smiled and nodded again and again, like a fool constantly echoing.

It is inconvenient to walk long distances when it is cold in the mountains, Tianfeng did not delay time, and the people of Panshizhai soon came to Shanyuan Village again. This time, it's the real marriage.

The old woman Osmanthus came with dozens of women. As Tianhao's chosen companion, she was led by five other elderly women of about the same age, and more than thirty young women were beside her. When Tianfeng was carrying out various marriage procedures in Ali's house, Tianhao and Tianmad and others sat on the side and watched, and several old women led by Osmanthus gave full play to their strengths, and soon set off a new wave of public opinion in Shanyuan Village.

Several times before and after, osmanthus is already very familiar with the mountain source village. She made quite a few friends here. The concept of respecting the old and loving the young in this world is far less deeply rooted in the hearts of the people than in the civilized era, and the barbarians who worship power will not be particularly wary of an old woman. She scurried around the mountain source village like a ghost, as long as she saw a woman, she leaned on it affectionately, giving full play to her nagging characteristics, and her clever tongue was like a spring, and soon the other party was dizzy, and her favor increased.

is old, and she is also a woman who likes to gossip and is good at communicating ideas with others.

Osmanthus soon became a popular guest in Shanyuanzhai. It takes a long time for Tianfeng to greet his family, and according to Tianhao's instructions, Osmanthus has personally trained several old women during this time, although it is not up to her level of horror that can make the listener change his or her opinion on something in just a few minutes, but there is not much difference.
