0491 Chu Yan is suspected to be sick

On the commercial street, countless people are in full swing to build sheds.

Finally, the mutual market was opened, and the businessmen paid the deposit, naturally hoping that the mutual market would be successful.

So when it came to arranging the shed, a lot of thought was put into it.

However, everyone was also quite worried, after all, they didn't know the attitude of the barbarians.

Although the imperial court decided to open a mutual market, if the barbarians were unwilling, this thing would not be possible.

If the barbarians take the opportunity to attack, they will have to suffer.

Therefore, although the merchants put their minds into it, they were also worried that the barbarians would come and plunder, so they did not plan to put too many goods on the market.

Most of the goods were hidden in the cellars.

Only a small number will be shipped to the shed as samples when the market officially opens.

The cavalry sent by the barbarian tribes who were willing to trade soon came to the border pass.

When they arrived, the gates were left open, for during the day the frontier people and garrison soldiers would go out to graze their cattle, hunt, or spy on the barbarians.

There are also many small forts built outside the city gates, which are guarded here on weekdays.

As soon as they spot an enemy, they will light wolf smoke.

This time, the barbarian cavalry appeared, and before they reached the city gate, they were discovered by the soldiers guarding the city.

They came to inquire about the news, and by the way, they contacted the Tianlong people to inquire about the mutual market, so after this barbarian cavalry was stopped, they did not show hostility.

The leader's name was Amur, and he spoke in a broken official tongue about their purpose.

The cavalry were vigilant, and Amur was no exception.

They weren't too close, almost ten meters apart from each other.

This distance is already very close, as long as you speak louder, the other party can hear it.

The barbarian cavalry did not dismount, and if they noticed that something was wrong, they could immediately ride away.

Amur rode on his horse and asked: "Some border people said that your prince is going to open a mutual market, is it true?" ”

He still kept an eye on it, and deliberately said that it was said by the border people.

lest the Draconians suspect the spies.

The soldiers in the fortress were also on guard, but they had been ordered by their superiors early in the morning, so they had been prepared for this matter, so after hearing Amur's words, a small flag shouted: "Of course it is true!

The prince said that this winter is too cold, and your life is not easy, so he is willing to open a mutual market, trade with you, and sell some grain to you. ”

In fact, many border residents and soldiers were quite dissatisfied with the sale of grain.

They live here, and there are often barbarians who raid south, and the two sides can be said to have a deep blood feud.

They wish the barbarians were dead.

Now it's too cheap to sell them food for them!

However, as mentioned above, food is not exchanged casually.

If you want to exchange food, you have to exchange horses or gold, and nothing else.

Because of this news, the soldiers felt a lot more comfortable.

If you really exchanged grain for horses, this business could still be done.

After hearing Xiaoqi's words, the barbarian cavalry also had a complicated mood.

To be honest, they don't have a good impression of the Draco either.

The great country in the Guannai used to be theirs!

Those Celestial Dragons used to be nothing more than their sheep slaves, and they could be bullied at will.

But later, these damned Tianlong people actually rebelled, and drove them out, occupying the splendid country.

As a result, they had to return to the grassland and live a precarious life.

Other times it was fine, but in winter, the snow fell like goose feathers, freezing not only the cattle and sheep, but also them.

If you're not careful, you could freeze to death in a tent.

How can they be willing?

Why can the Tianlong people occupy that great river and mountain, but they can only live a hard life on the grassland?

It's so unfair!

So whenever life is bad, they can't help but go south to loot.

It's a pity that these Tianlong people are also very fierce, every time they go south, they can't take a big advantage, when they are unlucky, they can't grab anything, not to mention, they have to be killed by the Tianlong people, and they have to flee back to the grassland in embarrassment.

Now, the prince of the Tianlong Dynasty actually said that their life was not easy, and he was willing to open a mutual market and sell grain to them.

This prince can't be sick, right?

However, the news from the border people didn't say that the prince who came this time was the Qin King Chu Yan who killed people without blinking?

He didn't follow him to kill them on the prairie before!

Do you really care about how their lives are doing?

It can't be a trap, right?

Even if this cavalry wanted to trade with the Tianlong people, they couldn't help but be vigilant when they thought of Chu Yan's reputation.

But if you don't trade, do you really want to loot?

No, it's Chu Yan who came this time!

This man is a killer, very fierce. If you really want to fight him, I don't know how many people will die.

What if they're unlucky and it's just them who die?

The barbarians don't pay attention to the Celestial Dragons, if they die, their women may be robbed, and their sons will be killed.

So looting definitely doesn't work!

Let's ask first.

No matter what Chu Yan's purpose is, as long as he is really willing to open a mutual market and sell grain to them, he will trade with him!

Amr quickly asked again: "Is there really any grain in this mutual market?" ”

Xiaoqi continued to shout: "Of course there is! These grains were specially transported by the prince from other places. There are also salt, tea and pickles, if you have anything you want, you can also bring it up, as long as it is not a contraband, you can trade it. ”

When Amr heard this, he glanced at the other cavalrymen, and then left some of them on guard, while the rest gathered around and muttered quietly.

"Do you have anything you want?"

"I want an iron pot, but this thing is an iron tool, and I'm afraid the Tianlong people won't sell it to us."

"I also want an iron pot, my iron pot is almost out of use!"

"If only the Tianlong people were willing to sell iron pots to us."

When Amur heard this, he couldn't help but sigh: "I'm afraid it's not easy to use the iron pot, the Tianlong people value salt and iron very much, and they definitely don't want to sell it." ”

The iron pot, he still wants.

A big man couldn't help but scold: "Those craftsmen are really useless, they have been working for so long, they can't even make an iron pot!" ”

When the others heard this, their faces became very ugly.

They also have iron ore on the grassland, but unfortunately the people on their side are not good at making iron tools at all.

Therefore, every time they went south to plunder, they would pay special attention to catching the craftsmen of the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty.

It's a pity that the people who can catch them are all folk craftsmen, and there are too few things that they can do.

The iron pots they use now are basically snatched back when they went south to plunder.
