Chapter 155: Caravan
Bernie sat beside Zhong Xuyao, "It's better to do this way, so you don't have to worry about not having anything in the wild." ”
"Well, it's in your own hands that it's reliable." Zhong Xuyao said with a smile.
Bernie nodded in agreement.
"By the way, it's going to be busy." Zhong Xuyao said bluntly.
When she was in the cornfield, she took the time to take a look at the rice over there, and she was afraid that it would be ready to be harvested in a day or two.
Next, they also need to start preparing clothes for the winter, after all, sweaters take a lot of time to knit, even if the needles are thick, it also takes time.
"I know." Bernie nodded vigorously. Before the trip, she had a hunch that this trip was just for relaxation. It's early summer, too. Winter is only 5 to 6 months away. When the toffee ingredients in her hand are finished, she also needs to prepare things for the winter.
With the quilt here, she doesn't worry too much about keeping warm now. Now the main thing is the problem of eating.
"Xiaoxiao, if there is anything, just leave it to us. You just have to play in charge. "Ixiu
"How's that going to work? If I want to have a better winter, I'll have to work hard. Zhong Xuyao said with a smile.
"Xiaoxiao, this time, we brought back a lot of bananas." Vernal placed a handful of bananas on the table on their side.
"Okay, thank you." Zhong Xuyao unceremoniously pulled one directly: "By the way, this kind of banana, are there many spirit turtles?" ”
Speaking of which, because of her cultivation, she didn't have a good time at the beach.
"There are quite a few. It is said that they never finish eating. So, a lot of it fell to the ground and rotted. "Vernal
Zhong Xuyao's eyes lit up, "Then let's bring more next time." ”
"Tiny, bananas are easy to spoil." Bernie
"Let's take it back and make it into banana chips. Also, it seems that the toffee will have a banana flavor. Zhong Xuyao touched his chin and said with some uncertainty.
"That's good." Bernie nodded.
"Then I'll talk to the members of the patrol team and ask them to come back with some bananas." Vernal
"But wouldn't it be dangerous? That guinea beast forest is terrifying. Zhong Xuyao said with some concern. If the orcs set off on their own and have nothing on their bodies, they will naturally be fast and agile in battle, but once they increase the number of items. The danger level will skyrocket.
"In the future, the patrol team with goods can add a few more people." Vernal
"I think we can form a caravan." Zhong Xuyao thought for a while, "The caravan is only responsible for going back and forth between the Spirit Turtle Clan and our tribe, and there is no need to make a detour to other places. This also saves a lot of effort. ”
Vernal thought for a moment, then nodded, if you run around with goods, it will consume a lot of orcs' physical strength. After all, it takes a lot of energy to transform into a two-winged white tiger. If it's just a linear way of moving, they can save time and energy.
At the speed of the orcs, from here to the Spirit Tortoise clan, without a small female, it is possible to go back and forth at least three times.
"It's really good. I'll talk to the patriarch later. "Vernal
"Well, the caravan should be better equipped, at least, the squad should be equipped with shields and toffee." Zhong Xuyao
"When the time comes, we'll have to trouble Bernie." Vernal
"Don't worry, leave it to me." Bernie
While they were discussing, Barron flew over with Wu Lao.
"Elder Wu, uncle." Zhong Xuyao
Wu Lao came to Zhong Xuyao's side, "Xiaoxiao, are you okay?" ”
"Well, I'm fine. This time I went to the Spirit Turtle Clan, and I gained a lot. Zhong Xuyao said with a smile.
"It's fine if you're okay. When I heard that you were attacked, I was scared to death. "Wu Lao
"Worries you." Zhong Xuyao helped Wu Lao sit down, and then changed the topic and said, "You came just in time. We have something to discuss with you. ”
"Oh, what's the matter?" Wu Lao
"Tiny wants to organize a caravan." Bernie
"It's a coincidence, that's why we're here." Barron laughed.
"And what about your plans?" Zhong Xuyao
"I'm going to send a small team of excellent warriors to go to the Spirit Turtle Clan every day. In exchange for what is needed. "Barron
"Where's the squad members?" Zhong Xuyao
"About 50 people, so that you can also prevent wild beasts from attacking." Barron
"50 people." Zhong Xuyao muttered, with the round-trip time of the orcs, these people are indeed enough.
"Xiaoxiao, what do you think is better for us to exchange?" Barron
"At the moment, stone cauliflower, kelp, squid, and bananas are better. As for the other starfish, they are not necessary. Moreover, with the ability of the orcs to carry goods. It doesn't have to be every day, it's enough to go once a week. "Zhong Xuyao
"Bananas? There are so many of them on the beach that you can't eat them. Is this also exchanged? Barron wondered.
"It's good to make a banana to dry. As for the price, we have to negotiate with Patriarch Carter. If there are so many, one bowl can be exchanged for another. Zhong Xuyao said with a smile. Since the other party has too much of this thing to eat, they can completely lower the price. Just charge some labor fees.
In any case, they themselves can't afford to lose.
"yes, they're not short of these things anyway. Let's charge a processing fee. "Bernie
"Don't you use the shells?" Barron
"There are a lot of decorations for shells, so it's not very urgent, the most important thing is to eat and wear." Zhong Xuyao
"Okay." Barron
"Since it's a caravan, I think we can also support reservations. For example, a week before the caravan departs, write the items needed in the propaganda column, and after the caravan and the spirit turtle are traded, they will agree on the items in the next trade and the price according to the items in the propaganda column. "Zhong Xuyao
She doesn't know much about this world, what tribes have what specialties, what are the uses, and she doesn't know. Moreover, other people in the tribe will need other things as well.
Barron nodded, "Okay, that's fine. Just the painting aspect. ”
"It's simple, it can be like a weather watch, we carve some wooden signs. Others hang wooden signs on the caravan's demand board when needed. On the back of the card, there is a unit of measurement, such as a basket or a basket. "Zhong Xuyao
The calculations here are still relatively primitive, but as you can see from the last letter from the Courier, they already know decimal math, so there is no problem with basic bartering.
Even if you can't calculate the total amount, you can first exchange an item for an item, then take an item and exchange it for the next item.
"That's fine." Barron smiled, "As for the captain of the caravan, Vernal, you will be the leader." ”
"Yes." Vernal.
"As for the other members, they need to be carefully considered." Barron said in a deep voice. The members of the caravan should be strong, calm, and quick-witted.
