"Do you have any recommendations for choosing a place to build a bazaar?"
At the meeting, Li Yue made a fixed-point sales office for the commodity circulation route.
When they open up the northern trade routes, let them come over and wholesale by themselves, in exchange for waiting, etc., it is impossible for the Ji tribe to deliver goods to their doors.
"Lord Priest, I think it's better to be in this position!" Midori nodded to the simple map on the table.
"Here? This is the intersection of the four major departments, and once it is carried out here, everyone in the whole continent will know about it! Liuli was a little worried: "Now we are not very mature in terms of force"
"It's fine! Now there are more than 800 people in our tribe, even the cattle warriors! Afraid of what? Qiao spoke.
"Indeed! There are more than 600 other elite warriors! Coupled with the more than 300 green knights, our tribe is no longer the object that can be bullied at will" Shi Li is no longer the Shi Li of the past, and he is already very confident and powerful at this time.
"But you must know that there are 8,000 strong warriors in the beast tribe alone!" The Little Tree Tribe is still afraid.
"We are warriors! Why didn't you fight yet! "The impulse came out again.
"Let's change positions" Jiang Zi pointed to the territory close to the green ying: "It's right here, most of this place belongs to the northwest border, and there is a big river, which can make some tribes with ideas come by, and it is far away from our mine."
"This can," agreed the glass leader.
"What do you think?" Shi Li asked.
"Is this river the one from our farm?"
"I don't know," Jiang Zi replied.
"If it's the best, the bazaar we build will welcome all kinds of tribes in the future, and the goods are too slow to be packed, so they can be delivered by boat."
Li Yue drew a large circle on the map with his hand: "The territory should be so large, and the construction method must be a little special, this is not only a trading place, but also a place to connect tribes with various tribes."
"Lord Priest, are you going to open it to all tribes?" This is different from the caution I said before, Chiba thought.
Li Yue nodded: "But the priority is to open up the tribes in the north and pull them in."
In fact, it's not to let them share the soup, it's just a grafting risk, the northern country is strong, and they traded it out at the beginning, and the risk to them to collect tribes is much smaller.
Their goods must be in high demand, and in the early days of the northern kingdom, they would not tell others about the production of the Ji tribe. Even if you tell others that it is not realistic to invade with a large number of warriors now, and their tribes are always prepared to deal with this.
Several leaders were a little frightened by Li Yue's decision, and they were going to make a big deal as soon as they made a sacrifice.
"Then the west will get the news very quickly," Chiba said.
Li Yue: "It's okay, let's build a market while opening up the northern country, and then gather all the small tribes, and those tribes controlled by the beast tribe are also included." ”
"So what about the warriors of the Beast Tribe who are left behind in the Fire Tribe?"
"Of course, it's back to the earth"
"Master! I knew you were the bravest! Let me do this! He clenched his hands into fists.
"Yes, it must be clean, and the next time those who take salt, it will be the same"
"Master!" Qiao really admires his master immensely.
"Chiba, will the third young man of the beast tribe come over in person if he knows about such a situation?"
Chiba shook his head: "Normally, he doesn't come in person, he always sends his subordinates and tribes over."
"Oh, the tribe? Those vassal tribes? ”
"Right"
"That's better"
At the end of the meeting, Li Yue happily announced: "I have good news to tell you!" ”
All eyes were on him.
"What is it, Lord Sacrifice?"
"Electricity! We already have electricity! "After Li Yue found the oil, he has been studying it quietly for a long time, and let him make this thing.
But the rest of the tribe didn't know what it was for. It's just that I often hear Li Yue talking about everything.
Li Yue asked Yu to bring the generator over, with rubber wires around it.
"Look closely!" Li Yue put on rubber gloves and connected the thread to the light bulb, and the transparent light bulb lit up!
"What is this!"
"It's so bright!"
The chiefs all gathered around, looking at this thing that glowed like the sun in an incredible way.
"This is the light bulb, and now there is a special glass department, which is dedicated to these supplies" Li Yue also wants to design batteries, but some materials are not yet available, and there are only generators at present.
"At the moment, this thing is only a small amount of electricity, but I believe we will use electrical appliances soon!"
Several of the leaders were very excited and nervous, and suddenly understood why the priests were no longer secretly doing things.
"Although we can't use a lot of electricity, we have made something more practical! That's the steam rebar machine and the steam roller! ”
With these two big helps, Li Yue first had to change the various work departments in the tribe.
First of all, the steel rebar machine of the iron striking department is no longer driven by manpower, but is all driven by steam. Leave the hands of the people who used to pull the rebar on the runner free. The production of steel bars became industrialized, and with these steel bars, all the work departments were built into industrial factories, capped with cement cast-in-situ, and the window glass was installed.
Those cement forgings also use steam to drive heavy objects to roll, and the finished product is more than 10 times larger, which can fully keep up with the needs of the tribe, and the same free manpower is used to do other things.
The trolleys in the hands of the clan are all made of rubber wheels, using the modern concept of perpetual motion machines, so that he can move back and forth by himself in a limited area, which greatly increases the effect.
As for electricity, Li Yue plans to put electricity on everything and use electric lights, but the tungsten filament in the current electric lights is too troublesome to make, and it is estimated that it will have to be realized slowly.
"Lord Priest, are we going to tear down the gate?" Flying Sand with the Ministry of Construction, facing their sign gate.
"Yes, build a taller, more magnificent wall"
"The city walls?"
Li Yue took out a similar design of the Great Wall in later generations: "According to this kind of construction, people can walk around and live on it, and you can observe and attack the enemy in the middle."
"This ...... The structure is really good! Flying Sand's eyes lit up.
"At present, we don't have enough manpower, so let's just do this, and when there are more people in our tribe in the future, we will build a great wall that stretches for 100,000 miles to protect our tribe."
"Good! Sacrifice to your lords! I'm going to build it! Feisha said excitedly.
After inspecting all the affairs of the tribe, Li Yue and Lu Ying and the other knights set out on the road to the north.
Regarding commodities, Li Yue was originally not prepared to exchange those gold for the hard-earned food of the clansmen, but now in order to exchange for a harmonious and vast trading market in the future, these materials can only be filled in first.
"Lu Ying, how is the Tin Tribe?"
"Sacrifice to my lord, the tin tribe is still good, and the salt exchange is also very fair, which is a bit similar to what you said about harmony and wealth."
"Is that so?" Li Yue wants to connect the entire continent with goods, and needs good spokespersons and merchants, I don't know if this tribe is in line.
"Lord Sacrifice, do we really want to give the northern tribe the method of repairing the house this time?"
"Hehe, I want to give it, this thing is not a rare thing." It would be better to use this to dismantle the Western Tribal situation once again.
"Priest, why did you do this?" Lu Ying was puzzled.
"Lu Ying, now that we push these things out, other tribes will naturally deal with us, and then wait for others to be thieves against us? It's at least a lot better to have a shield. ”
"I see, Lord Priest, you really think far"
Li Yue shook his head: "The main thing is that we are weak now"
"Then why did the priest choose the northern country?"
"One is that Chiba's mother is in favor of us, and the other is that the situation in the northern country is very suitable for us to do business"
The green glow is dotted.
Chiba Amu's rebellion should be revenge on the beast tribe and disintegrate the west, and they don't have to worry about it. The Northlands are all individual tribes, and they are less likely to unite, and they trade more widely.
Li Yue and the others rode across the mountains and rivers, walked through the dry land, and finally arrived at this tin tribe.
"Stop!" The people of the Tin tribe looked strange and wary, and approached: "What are you doing?" ”
"I'm Lu Ying of the Ji tribe, I have something to find your leader"
The other party cautiously walked back to one person, and the rest boldly stepped forward and wanted to touch their horses: "Woman! How did you tame this? ”
"Heh, tell your leader to come out" Lu Ying hasn't been underestimated for a long time, and she can't help but be a little unhappy.
"Humph! Shame on the face! This warrior is also bold, and he directly reaches out and touches the horse.
Unexpectedly, it was almost there, and the green mount sprayed his breath, lifted his hooves up, and kicked him directly in the chest.
"You!" The warriors were kicked out directly, and the warriors behind them immediately surrounded them with stone grass, and a large group of horses behind Lu Ying rushed forward, surrounding them with a larger circle, and one by one the horses gasped for breath, as if sprayed on their faces, and the hooves that rubbed against the grass were ready to attack as if rushing over.
They were so frightened that they backed away, leaning against each other's backs.
For the sake of face: "You wait! ”
"Heh, just wait now!" Lu Ying hates others to look down on women the most!
"Oh, who should I be, it turns out that the leader of the green Ying is visiting, these people are too self-conscious!" The leader who came immediately reprimanded his people: "Get out of here! Lose face! ”
The leader of the Tin tribe is a little jealous of this elite knight order: "Leader of the Green Ying, it's better to get off the horse and enter the Tin tribe"
"Of course"
Lu Ying, Li Yue and others dismounted, and the other cavalry were around.
"The original leader doesn't mind if my horse eats some grass from your tribe."
"Of course"
Li Yue silently observed this tribe, and in general, this tribe was relatively wealthy, and the tents were relatively generous.
Every tribe was surrounded by animal skins.
"I didn't know that the leader of the green Ying has changed so much, and there is such a powerful team"
After they sat down, they couldn't hold back and asked Lu Ying.
Lu Ying smiled modestly: "Where, it's just to bring more people when you go out"
The original leader accepted this explanation with a smile: "The leader of Luying came here to change salt? ”
If it was the original Lu Ying, the chance of changing salt was the greatest, and now Lu Ying exuded a rich and powerful aura all over his body, he really didn't dare to think about what the purpose was.
"No, the original leader, we came here to make a deal with you"
"Deal? Why do you want gold too? "In recent years, many people like to exchange the gold that woman has made.
"If there is, of course"
The original leader nodded slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.
"There is gold, what do you exchange it for?" The original chief was disgusted with gold.
This thing didn't have much effect on him at all, on the contrary, he had to exchange a lot of supplies.
"The original boss can take a look at our goods"
"Yes"
"Bring the merchandise in!" Lu Ying shouted.
The original leader watched as they moved in some containers made of wood, animal skin wraps, etc.
There were only two things, and the wooden vessel attracted him, and the original leader had a hint of anticipation for them.
"Former leader, let me introduce you," Lu Ying opened the wooden box: "This one is filled with pots and pans"
Take out an iron pot: "This one is for cooking"
The original leader took it over and took a closer look, the material of this thing is not made, it is very strong, but it is not very big.
"These are bowls, pots, for meals"
"This, so beautiful to eat?" The original leader didn't feel anything when he looked at the pot, but these white shiny treasures were actually used for eating? Some are unbelievable.
"Yes, this one is not like a pot, it is easy to break"
"Oh, how do you change this thing?" This kind of thing is much more beautiful than gold.
"The original leader is not in a hurry, we have other things that we haven't taken out"
Lu Ying took out the spices again, and the original leader was not interested in this thing: "These tree residues? ”
"This will make your food taste better!"
The original leader really didn't have much to do with food, so his wife smiled, "Can you show us that?" ”
"Of course, Tree, you go and make a meal for Madame."
Li Yue: "Okay, Chief" Li Yue took a bag of spices and an iron pot and walked over: "Madam, please take me to choose the ingredients." ”
"Follow me," Madame's men walked out of the tent.
Original Leader: "Come on"
"These are food, kimchi, dried vegetables, dried fruits, flour, bacon, etc."
The original leader played with the porcelain cup, looked at the jar, and thought to himself, it seems that they are indeed using this good thing to fill the food, and these watery dishes are very good.
"These are okay"
Lu Ying then took it out: "This is cloth, this is cotton cloth, which can be cut and sewn clothes, this is a woolen ball, which can be used to knit clothes, etc."
The chief's wife was immediately attracted by the white cotton cloth, and she took a roll.
"How do you do this?" The softness of this hand, the warmth of the touch, is definitely not an animal skin.
"These are made of cotton flowers"
"Cotton? What is it? ”
"It's a plant"
"How much of this stuff did you make?" The lady couldn't put it down, and said to the chief, "Chief, touch it."
"Leader Luying, do I see that the clothes you are wearing are also made of this cotton?"
"Yes Madame" Lu Ying pulled open a layer of leather jacket outside, revealing the corner of the mid-neck sweater inside, and the close-fitting cotton cloth inside was exposed.
"This is indeed the same kind of fabric," Madame's eyes were fascinated.
Lu Ying's clothes are made of Li Yue's military uniform design drawings, because it is a woman, the grass has been changed to become more compliant, and the pattern is made, the outer leather coat is a mid-length style, a small stand collar, and the whole dress is black, and there is a heel belt in the middle. The bottom is also black leather pants on the outside, the version is well cut, the straight long legs are exposed, and the shoes are military boots made of rubber and animal skin, and the middle and high length cover the calves.
Inside is a woolen sweater, the same small stand collar, and the innermost is underwear.
As a gesture of friendship, they temporarily removed their rattan armor, so they looked heroic and clean. Compared to the tin tribe, it is simply the difference between nobles and slaves.
Madame looked very fond of this dress, and she said to Lu Ying excitedly: "We want this cloth, you have to teach us how to do it!" ”
"Madam, these are fine, but I don't know how much you want?"
The chief's wife glanced at the leader and said, "How do you exchange cloth and gold?" ”
Lu Ying said: "One pound of gold, 10 rolls of cloth"
When Madame heard this price, she calmed down: "This is too expensive!" 30 rolls of cloth! ”
Lu Ying was slightly shocked by this bargain: "I don't know how to exchange gold here?" ”
Original leader: "1 pound of gold for 20 Balu beasts"
Lu Ying thought about it, this Balu beast is the beast with the most meat and the best food, so in this way, the price of gold is indeed a little expensive, and it is estimated that there will not be any splash in exchange for gold.
"Madam, it's the first time you've seen this kind of thing, one roll of our cloth can make two warriors' clothes, so 18 horses can't be less."
"No, 28 horses!"
"20 horses!"
The other party's wife was still preparing to make a counteroffer, and Lu Ying remembered the words of the sacrificial lord, so she pretended to be embarrassed: "Madam, this production is difficult, we can change so much at most, otherwise we won't be able to change it."
"Hehe, I'm afraid you're not lying to me" The chief's wife was a little convinced, but she needed a large amount, and her tribe really didn't have much gold, so it was estimated that she couldn't change it if she changed the fabric, and she didn't want to miss these things.
Lu Ying saw the other party's thoughts: "Madam, this way, I used to be taken care of by your tribe, we have cotton seeds here, as long as you give us the cotton after the harvest next year, then you only need to give me gold this year as a deposit, and give me the same amount of cotton next year, and the gold will be returned to you."
Neither the chief nor the lady believed in such a good thing.
"What the hell are you trying to do?" The original leader had to seriously consider Lu Ying's intentions.
"Don't think too much about the original leader, we're just short of raw materials"
"Won't you just grab slaves?"
"No, our tribe pays attention to peace, fairness, justice, there are no slaves, as long as the tribe"
Lu Ying was afraid that the other party would ask one after another, and then she said: "As long as you plant it, you can exchange it for our cloth, or buy it with the gold owner."
Although the chief and his wife had a lot of doubts that they had not figured out, since they could have two paths, they had nothing to lose.
"Okay, let's plant cotton and exchange cloth with you"
"Okay madam, Chiba, you and Madame will count the goods together" Midori Ying pointed to Chiba.
"Okay, ma'am, please come with me to choose, our goods come in 3 colors"
Madame was surprised: "And the color?" Okay, take me there."
Here, Lu Ying continued: "Former Chief, we have here a flint machine that is prone to fire, soap for cleaning, and paraffin lighting......"
The flint machine here, Li Yue is a simple lighter made of two pieces of flint and a gear, which can start sparks as long as one hand rubs it.
The original leader looked at them one by one, and was quite interested in these small things
"Former leader, do you see that you are more satisfied with our goods?"
"I'm satisfied, but why are you looking for me? Don't go to those big tribes? "The leader is not stupid, these amazing things are taken out, and each of them is the object of competition among other tribes.
"We're going to trade at the Northland Temple, and these are all goods to be sold in the Northland."
"You still want to go to the temple?" The original leader thought for a moment and nodded: "If you want to trade on the territory of the northern country, you really have to inform our leader, this is understood."
"All your goods this time will be exchanged for us" The original leader opened his mouth, for the question of the leader, they have nothing to fear of the northern tribes, such a good thing must be cut off first.
Lu Ying smiled and greeted: "Only a part, if the Tin tribe still needs these, you can go to the market next spring to exchange them, we don't necessarily want all gold, you can take any past that you think is valuable"
"Oh? And such a thing? Where is your bazaar?"
"The bazaar is on the flat at the Great River Bend."
"So far? Where did your tribe move? ”
"No, it's just a place to exchange things for all the tribes."
The original leader nodded: "Okay, I will definitely cheer"
"Chief! Chieftain! That one! The food is made! "A member of the former chief's clan came running in a hurry.
The original leader frowned: "What is there to inform about such a thing?" ”
Lu Ying on the side smiled happily: "Original leader, if you come to try the food made of our spices, you will definitely be surprised"
"So good?" The original leader walked out suspiciously.
When he was about to arrive, he saw many clansmen surrounded by three layers of inner and outer three layers, and an attractive fragrance came, which made saliva secrete.
"That's what you make of spices?"
"Yes, it's full of fragrance," Lu Ying was very proud.
The original leader strode forward in agreement, and walked to the place where the food was made, and on it were dishes served on several of their plates, the color and fragrance of which constantly tempted him.
As the leader, he was the first to pick up a lump of shiny meat and put it in his mouth.
"Delicious!" The leader was struck by the smell, the never-before-seen taste blooming in his mouth, the scent intoxicating him.
Then, in front of the clansmen, the leader was sweating with spicy food, and quickly dried up plate after plate of food, and he was about to smoke when he ate later, and a bowl of vegetable soup relieved the heat and spiciness.
"This soup is delicious, too!" The leader looked at the cook: "Make some more"
Li Yue didn't answer, but the hands of the people of the Tin tribe who had been beating him moved up.
The tin leader walked over to Lu Ying with satisfaction, and pointed to the spices: "These things! Give it all to us! ”
If there is this kind of thing, all the tribes in the north will change it for him, you must know that they are northerners, unlike other tribes who like to fight, they like to eat delicious things.
Therefore, with gold, those people also exchanged more for Bala beasts.
"The original chief, this spice is more expensive" After all, the spice is very light.
"Out of the way"
Lu Ying seemed to see that they were conquered by the food in the first place, and the tin tribe was even crazier.
It is absolutely impossible to change it all, but it also gives a large part of the tin tribe.
The tin tribe used cotton in exchange for cloth, and used all the gold in exchange for other things, but the gold for spices was still not given on credit.
As a sign of sincerity, he gave his only son to Lu Ying, saying that he would redeem him if he had gold.
So, a handsome young man in his 20s followed them to the way to the temple.
"Hello, my name is Sheng," the handsome guy in front of him said with a smile.
