……

Looking at the so-called "treasures" in front of him, Liu Zhibang really couldn't cry or laugh, what a pottery statue, a beast horn, and actually saw a night pot, Liu Zhibang picked it up among the many treasures and put it down.

"Hey, there's still a stone here, I'll take a look......"

Liu Zhibang picked up a strange-looking stone, put it in front of his eyes and observed it carefully, through a peeling stone skin, as if there was a trace of blue wave feeling in the stone, Liu Zhibang was curious, picked up the stone and knocked it on the ground a few times, the stone fell off another piece of skin, and a piece of turquoise luster came into Liu Zhibang's eyes.

Liu Zhibang tried to suppress the expression on his face, and thought: "Obediently, this is a jade rough, this small piece is worth a lot, and it is worth millions of oceans in the Federation......

Liu Zhibang held the stone and asked, "Whose stone is this?" ”

A Lidan man walked out, and Liu Zhibang said to the man: "You can exchange this stone for a foot of cloth!" ”

"Really! Thank you so much Master Liu Jipo...... Haha...... "The Dan people were ecstatic, a stone can be exchanged for a foot of cloth, which is really a big bargain for him."

Stones can be exchanged for sackcloth, and many Lidan villagers ran back and came back with many strange stones.

Liu Zhibang picked out a few pieces of raw ore for gems in a large pile of stones, and pretended to be heartbroken in exchange for the price of one stone and one foot of linen. Among the many stones, Liu Zhibang's eyes were attracted by a stone with a faint blue luster, Liu Zhibang picked it up and looked at it carefully, and found that this stone was covered with colorful feather-like lines.

"Well, isn't this malachite? This is the main material of bronze, you can actually see it, this is a treasure! ”

Liu Zhibang stood up and said: "One stone like this can be exchanged for two feet of cloth!" ”

"Wow...... This stone is so valuable, I have ...... too."

When the Lidan people heard Liu Zhibang say this, they all shouted excitedly, and many people brought malachite.

Seeing more and more malachites to exchange for linen, Aya walked up to Liu Zhibang and asked curiously, "Master Abang, is there anything special about these green stones?" Why would you trade sackcloth for it? ”

Liu Zhibang pretended to smile mysteriously and said, "I'll tell you when I go back!" ”

"Sell Guanzi again, hum ......" Aya gave Liu Zhibang a big roll of his eyes.

Liu Zhibang was satisfied with this trip, not only earned a lot of silver and copper coins, but also surprised him to get malachite, the raw material for bronze.

……

"Lord Qi, can you be accommodating, you can't take people to Xia Yuancheng anymore, I will pay you the tax truthfully, as long as you wait another day or two. There are fewer and fewer strong men in our Fire Dance Clan, and if we continue like this, we will not have hunters......" The old patriarch of the Mountain Fury pleaded with a fat official beside him with a bitter expression.

The official looked at the old patriarch of Mountain Nu arrogantly, and snorted in his nostrils: "Mountain Fu, let me remind you again, this is the order of Lord Li Jun, the city lord of Xia Yuan, and I am just acting according to orders, don't you understand!" It's not easy for me to come here, and I have to go to other tribes, but I don't have time to wait for you, if you don't pay all the taxes now, I'll arrest people now! ”

"But...... But......" The old patriarch of Mountain Fury was powerless, thought about it and said with a glimmer of hope: "Lord Qi, last year, our Ah Meng won the individual competition championship, and it stands to reason that we can pay one quarter less tax ......."

Master Qi's eyebrows trembled when he heard this, and he said, "Ah...... What's this...... That's right, it can indeed be worth one quarter, but Ah Meng won the championship of the fourth individual competition, and he can only pay the fourth quarter's tax in order, and now it's only the second quarter, and I'll talk about it in winter......."

The Mountain Rage Patriarch sighed, his gaze swept around the crowd of onlookers, and finally pointed a trembling finger at a strong young man.

"No, patriarch, let me go...... Ah......" cried out the young man who was pointed at in horror.

Lord Qi's entourage immediately rushed into the crowd and was about to take the young strong man away, when suddenly a voice came from outside the field: "Stop!" ”

When the crowd heard the sound, they automatically flashed to both sides, Liu Zhibang strode to the center of the square, pointed to the few Qi adults who were about to arrest people and shouted, "Let me go!" ”

"Master Abang!"

When the Fire Dance Clan saw Liu Zhibang, they became a little more confident for no reason, and Lord Qi's entourage looked at Lord Qi, Lord Qi nodded slightly, and said to the old patriarch of Mountain Nu: "Mountain Fu, what's the matter with your clan, isn't it that you Fire Dance Clansmen don't understand the rules now!" ”

As soon as he saw Liu Zhibang appear, the waist of the old patriarch of the mountain fury also stiffened, and he said: "Lord Qi, the purpose of your coming is nothing more than to collect taxes, and the problem of paying taxes will be handled by our Abang!" ”

When Lord Qi heard this, he could only turn his gaze to Liu Zhibang and said, "Okay, young man, if you pay all the taxes that should be paid, I won't take this person away, otherwise I still have to do business......"

Liu Zhibang snorted and said to Lord Qi: "Lord Qi, how much tax should the Fire Dance Clan pay?" ”

Lord Qi glanced at Liu Zhibang arrogantly, and said slowly: "You Fire Dance Clan should pay 5,000 silver coins every quarter according to the share set last year, and if you have less than 100 silver coins, you will have to hand over a strong man to serve in labor. Now the mountain fury only took out 4,900 silver coins, according to the rules, I didn't pay enough, I have the right to take one person, how about it, you are going to make up for the 100 silver coins! ”

Liu Zhibang smiled lightly and said, "100 silver coins, Aya, get him 100 silver coins!" ”

Aya listened to it, took out a cloth bag from a back basket, and carefully took out a hundred silver coins in it, and the money bag in her hand seemed to be mostly empty, and the eyes of the adults were straight.

"There's 100 silver coins here, take it!" Liu Zhibang used a small cloth bag to hold the money and threw it at Lord Qi.

Master Qi quickly took the money bag, looked greedily at the money bag in Aya's hand for a while, and said with a sneer: "Okay, very good, my mission is complete, I have to go to other tribes, Mountain Fu, then Qi will leave......"

After the tax collection team of Lord Qi left, the villagers surrounded Liu Zhibang and Aya, and the words of thanks and praise kept coming, especially the rescued strong man's family.

Looking at the team that had returned with a full load, Shan Nu smiled and asked Aya, "Aya, it's really thanks to you, how much money did you make this time?" ”

Aya said happily: "Daddy, thanks to Master Abang this time, all the linen cloth we brought to trade with the Lidan clan has been sold, this is the money we made......"

Shan Nu took the money bag and looked inside, then checked it in his hand, and said, "I have earned three or four hundred silver coins, which is really amazing!" ”

Liu Zhibang smiled lightly, and Aya hurriedly said: "Daddy, this bag contains silver coins, and there are several big bags of copper coins!" ”

With that, Aya turned around and carried two baskets and put them in front of the Mountain Nu Patriarch, looking at the two money bags with bulging baskets, the Mountain Nu Patriarch was so excited that he was almost speechless.

"This ...... This...... Not to mention that there are thirty or forty thousand copper coins, but there must not be three or four hundred silver coins! ”

Liu Zhibangyun said lightly: "Patriarch, these are only half of the income from our sales, and the Dan people don't have enough money to buy cloth, and there are some good things we got in exchange for them in the basket over there......"

The old patriarch of the mountain fury was so excited that tears were about to flow, and he said in a trembling voice: "Are you going to loot the Lidan clan?" ”

……

"The tournament is about to start, Ali, this matter of finding candidates will be left to you......" The patriarch left as soon as he finished speaking.

"Yes, Patriarch!" Shan Li bent down deeply to the patriarch, a trace of coldness crossed the corner of his mouth, and said in his heart: Boy, since you came, Aya has been following your ass every day, where is there me in your eyes, hum, don't you kid have the ability, your opportunity to make a contribution has come......

"That, Master Abang, come on!"

Liu Zhibang saw Ah Shui waving to him, so he walked up.

Ah Shui put his hand on Liu Zhibang's shoulder with a sinister face, and said earnestly: "Hey, Master Abang, you came to our Fire Dance Clan, it is also fate, since you came, you are a family, do you say that the family wants to share weal and woe and share responsibilities for the family!" ”

Liu Zhibang gently brushed away Ah Shui's hand and asked, "If you have anything to say, do you need my help?" ”

Ah Shui smiled and said: "Our Wumang Mountain will hold a martial arts competition every year, it is hosted by Li Jun, the lord of Xia Yuan City, each tribe has to send some people to participate, seeing that the annual conference is about to be held, there are not many people in our clan, and there are even fewer strong young people like you, the patriarch ordered Brother Ali to select outstanding young people in the clan to participate in the conference, so as to show the demeanor of our Fire Dance Clan, no, Brother Ali and I agree that you are very good, handsome and chic, smart ......."

"Tournament?" Liu Zhibang frowned slightly after hearing this, and asked, "What are the benefits of this martial arts competition for the clan, and what are the benefits for me?" ”

Ali squeezed out a smile and said: "Ah, that's right, the competition will set up rewards, as long as which clan can win a project, you can be exempted from taxes for a quarter, and the conference has four competitions, if you can win the championship in all four competitions, you can be exempted from taxes for one year." And there is a personal martial arts competition in it, which can not only be tax-free, but also have the opportunity to choose the qualifications to join the personal guard of the city lord, and it is also the best opportunity to make a name for yourself, if you can participate in the individual martial arts competition and win more than one game, you can have the title of Badu......"

Liu Zhibang listened, since he came to the Fire Dance Clan, if he could help them win a few games, it would be good, not to mention that they would have to help if they wanted to build a space base in the future.

After Liu Zhibang left, Ah Shui smiled and said to Ali: "Brother Ali, this kid has been recruited!" ”

Ali snorted and said, "Let him be crazy for two more days, and when it comes to the martial arts competition, the first one will let him go to the ......."

Two days later, Ah Shui came to call Liu Zhibang early in the morning, and Liu Zhibang followed Ah Shui to a group of people.

Ah Shui said to one of the tallest and most sturdy young men: "Brother Ah Meng, everyone has arrived!" ”

Ah Meng is twenty-six or seventeen years old, more than two meters old, as burly as a huge brown bear, Liu Zhibang looked at Ah Meng carefully, knowing that he is the son of the patriarch, is the most powerful hunter in the Fire Dance Clan, when he just fell into this world, Ah Meng was taking people out to hunt, and he didn't come back until yesterday, Liu Zhibang This is the first time he has officially seen Ah Meng.

Ah Meng's gaze swept over all the people who arrived, and when his gaze passed by Liu Zhibang, his thick eyebrows raised slightly, and said, "You are Master Abang, why do you also want to participate in the martial arts competition!" ”

Liu Zhibang smiled slightly and said: "Hello Ah Meng, it's an honor to meet you, I heard that participating in the martial arts competition can help the clan to be tax-free, I came to our clan and was taken care of by everyone, if I can help our clan, it would be good......"

Ah Meng nodded and said, "Master Ah Bang has a heart!" ”
