Amr looked at the parchment roll suspiciously, hesitated for a moment, then took it out and carefully unfolded it.
After unfolding it, I saw some words written on it, and a picture was drawn.
He couldn't quite understand the words of the Draconian, but those pictures were simple and easy to understand, and he could understand what they meant at a glance.
For example, there are several pockets drawn on it, and next to them are horses.
There is also an iron pot painted below, and next to it are also horses, but this time the horses look more imposing.
Combined with the words of the man in the official robe, the meaning of these pictures is easy to understand.
After looking at it for a while, Amur quickly realized that the parchment scroll was painted with a price list.
However, he still confirmed with the principal: "This is the price of grain and iron pots?" ”
There were other things drawn on the parchment scroll, but some of the drawings were not particularly vivid, and Amr was not sure, so he didn't ask, for fear of letting the Draconians know that he couldn't understand them at all.
The director nodded: "This is the reference price drawn up by the Foreign Trade Department, and it also records the goods in this mutual market, you can take it back and let your people take a good look." ”
Amr nodded, and said with a straight face, "I see." ”
With that, he looked at the other barbarian cavalry and winked at them.
So, the people opened the box one after another and looked at the contents.
Amr looked over curiously, and saw that there were quite a lot of things in the box.
There are salt, tea, pickles, toothbrush powder, clothes made of muslin, beautiful sugar cubes, and even wooden sticks!
The wooden sticks were thin, no thicker than fingers, and I didn't know what they were for.
The last thing is a mirror!
However, this mirror was different from the bronze mirror they had seen before.
The mirror is only the size of a palm, and there is a handle at the bottom of the head that can be held in the hand.
It looks shiny and shines very clearly, but the texture of the mirror is very strange, and I don't know what it is made of.
Amr couldn't help but look at it a few more times.
The wooden box where the mirror was placed was next to him, so he could see it more clearly.
It's a pity that this is the territory of the Celestial Dragons, although he is very curious, he doesn't want to lose the face of the barbarians, so he has been patient and did not snatch the mirror to observe.
Just watching from the next door.
After several glances, he reluctantly looked away, looked at the strange wooden sticks, and asked curiously, "What are those sticks?" ”
With a smile, the chief took out a pencil, took out another notepad, wrote on the notepad in front of Amur, and then said: "This is a pencil, you can take it with you, you can write at any time, you don't need to sharpen ink." ”
When Amr heard this, he was not interested.
They barbarians don't know how to make paper at all, and paper is of little use to them, and it's very expensive and easy to break.
It's not as good as their skin.
It's really strange for the dragon people to give them a box of pencils, and it's useless.
Amr was full of slander, but he didn't know that these gifts were carefully selected.
It's all about things that don't have much value.
Precious things, such as gold, jewelry, and jade, no one would give them to these barbarians.
Since the invention of the pencil, it has been very popular, and even there are craftsmen in the border towns who specialize in making and selling it, and the price is very cheap.
Among these gifts, the only one that is rare is the mirror.
The mirror was brought by King Qin, and it is said that it is called a glass mercury mirror, which is made of transparent glass and mercury. There is also a kind of glazed silver mirror, which is more precious than this one and illuminates more clearly.
Now it is appropriate to give this mercury mirror to the barbarians.
Just look at the appearance of these barbarians, they are all rare in that small mirror.
When they go back, they don't believe that those barbarian nobles will not be moved!
The only thing to worry about now is that these barbarians are unwilling to trade honestly and directly lead troops to fight.
However, with King Qin testifying, they don't have to worry too much.
It is said that the King of Qin is brave and good at fighting, but he is a murderous god, when he was besieged by the imperial army in the past, he relied on him to kill a bloody way, breaking the blockade of the imperial army, I don't know if it is true.
If His Royal Highness the King of Qin is really so powerful, then there will be a good show to watch.
At this time, although the Tianlong and the barbarians were in the same room, they had different thoughts and wanted to take advantage of each other.
Amr looked at the gifts again, and when he saw that there was nothing to ask, he decided to take someone back first.
They have to get the news back here as soon as possible.
If they were to make a deal, they would have to go back and prepare the goods.
Amur offered to leave, but the chief did not stop him and let the Drake Cavalry send them out.
This is also to prevent someone from causing trouble.
If any barbarian has a convulsive brain and suddenly runs to the downtown area to cut people, then the fun will be great!
With the Sky Dragoon "escorting" on the side, if there are any more barbarians making trouble, they can also fight back immediately.
Amur and the others didn't make any trouble.
They wanted to trade in the first place, so they were sent to find out the news.
Now that they know what the Draconians mean, they want to trade even more.
As long as this mutual market can continue, they will be able to graze more cattle, sheep and horses in the future, and sell them to the Celestial Dragons in a steady stream.
When the time comes, their lives will definitely be better and better, without worrying that they will not have food in winter, and their cattle and sheep will be frozen to death and starved to death.
The group rode out on horseback, and when they got outside, they all sped up.
It wasn't until they reached the fortress in front that the Drake Cavalry stopped and watched Amur and the others ride away at a faster speed.
They kept watching, until Amur and the others were getting farther and farther away, and finally disappeared on the horizon, then they turned their horses around and returned to the border city.
In the city, the director of the Foreign Trade Department is carefully sitting in a chair.
Not far from him, Chu Yan was also sitting.
After Amur and the others left the Foreign Trade Department, the two directors went to see the director of the department and told them all about the reactions of Amur and the others.
After hearing this, the director immediately asked to see Chu Yan.
He was sent by Emperor Yong'an, and he was very concerned about the mutual market, so he was afraid that something would go wrong.
The barbarian is not easy to deal with, he is worried that the other party's wolf ambition will come directly to rob it.
So after getting the news, he couldn't wait to rush over and tell Chu Yan about his worries.
Chu Yan was not worried, after he listened, he didn't even have a superfluous expression on his face, he just pulled the corners of his mouth slightly, and said mockingly: "If they want to rob it, then the king will let them have no return!" ”
Since he accidentally cultivated his true qi, he has not killed anyone with a real sword or a real gun.
If someone in the barbarian tribe is really looking for death, it is just right to feed the knife!
