Chapter 17: Sensation
"We are a trading party of the Blackstone Tribe, and we are here to exchange for some supplies for the winter," Lu Ya had already inquired about the general situation of the market along the way, and this kind of patrol personnel was just a routine business, and it would not be difficult for them to wait for others.
"Oh, from the Blackstone Tribe, what are you all bringing here, why did you come so late" Boone hadn't heard of any Blackstone tribe at all, but it could be that he didn't know about it from a distant place, but since he was here to trade, he wouldn't stop it, he just asked routinely.
"Oh, we were attacked by a pack of grass wolves on our way, so we were delayed, and these are some furs and other goods, and there are some grass wolf corpses," Ruya said.
"Oh, grass wolves attack, they don't usually attack our orc team, how many grass wolves have you encountered" Johnson was shining in the car headlights, and he didn't see the whole situation of the team at this time.
"Fifty or sixty," Lu Ya said, he didn't want to hide anything, and told the other party that he wanted not to underestimate himself and others.
"Oh, that's not much, wait, whatever, fifty or sixty?" Boone asked, unresponsive for a moment, with a shocked look on his face.
"Well, it's a pity that we have too few people, so we let them run halfway," Lu Ya said calmly.
"Well, run halfway, you're saying that you 11 people beat away fifty or sixty straw wolves, what are you kidding" Johnson looked at the Blackstone tribe team on the other side with a look of disbelief that only one person could make him take seriously, and said in a loud voice.
"What are you lying to, I don't believe you can just look at what we have gained," Lu Ya continued to say calmly.
Johnson and Boone, who looked disbelieving, looked towards the ranks of the Blackstone tribe, first wrapped in a hill-like animal skin, and then a long wooden stick held by each of them, each stick was full of grass wolf corpses, and if you counted carefully, there were 30 grass wolf corpses, and there was a corpse that was obviously much larger, if you guessed correctly, it should be a wolf. The more they watched, the more shocked they became, and the more they watched, the more they felt that this group of people was unfathomable.
"This, this, you, are you the army of a super-large tribe?" Boone asked suddenly, and Johnson also looked at the people of Ruya, who had the impression that only a super-large tribe could train this kind of army that could defeat a pack of fifty or sixty grass wolves with a dozen ordinary orcs.
"We're not the army of a very large tribe, we're just ordinary people from the Blackstone tribe around here, and if it's okay, we'll go in and find a place to rest," Berry said in the group.
"Oh~ It's okay, you guys go in" Boone said quickly out of the way. Although the other party said that he was a member of the Blackstone tribe, he still didn't believe it, and after hearing the other party's impatience, he quickly got out of the way, they were just responsible for guarding against the attack of wild beasts at night, and they simply asked the tribal team who came to trade, and there was no right to restrain them. Of course, if the other party uses force, then he will definitely warn the security team in the market to deal with it.
"Haven't you heard of the Blackstone tribe, Johnson?" Boone asked Johnson as he looked at Luya and the others as they entered the market.
"No, we came almost together, I've never heard of such a tribe coming to us," Johnson replied, and suddenly his eyes lit up and he said.
"Hehe, tomorrow morning, I'll ask them if they sell grass wolves, I'll have to start with such a delicious thing."
"Well, yes, let's go tomorrow haha," Boone chimed in.
After entering the gate of the market, Bai Lifu led everyone straight to a two-story old inn next to it, and saw a group of owners who were dressed in tatters but had an amazing amount of goods, and then they were surprised for a while, and then negotiated the price with Bai Lifu, and then led the group to a large guest room, the room had nothing but a large bunk, but it was also suitable for stacking goods, everyone was tired from a day of running, and after putting down the goods, they all lay down on the Chase bunk and fell asleep・・・・・・・
As the sky gets brighter, the market that had been silent all night slowly comes alive, and the first customers are already seated in the first days of the roadside at several breakfast stalls.
"Hey~ Have you heard of any Blackstone tribes?" a diner asked the stall owner.
"I seem to be a little impressed, but I can't figure out the specific situation, what's the matter?" asked the stall owner curiously.
"Hehe, when I came here just now, I heard the two night patrolmen at the door tell the successor that a dozen or so Blackstone tribe trading teams came late yesterday, but they brought dozens of straw wolves, as well as several other goods, and there seems to be some strange three-wheeled glowing car," the diner said with envy.
"Oh, if I want to say that to you, it's the strength of some big tribes, are they all trainee wrestlers," the stall owner wondered.
"I don't know about this, I haven't heard anything else, hey~ The boss will have some more soup・・・・・・・・・・...
"Have you heard, there was a team that brought dozens of straw wolves last night," said one man on the road to the market to another beside him. "It was brought by a trading party called the Blackstone Tribe, hehe, my daughter-in-law heard about it when she poured the night pot in the morning, and came back to tell me," the other replied.
"I think I've heard of it, it seems to be a small tribe of one or two hundred people, did you hear it wrong?"
"How could it be ・・・・・・"
When the sun jumped out of the ground, the whole market woke up completely, and the number of tribes who came to trade near winter gradually increased, which also made the road that was usually spacious seem a little crowded, but the discussion on the street was about a trading team called the Blackstone tribe and dozens of straw wolves.
Although this is a market trading point organized by a large tribe, but only some small and medium-sized tribes in the vicinity come to trade, and most of the goods traded are fur and mountain goods, and suddenly I heard that there is a team that brought dozens of straw wolves to trade at once, how can they not be surprised, they can kill so many straw wolves at one time, there must be some strong people in the team, and people are always full of respect and curiosity for the strong.
But what they didn't know was that the group of strong men they were talking about were just getting up in one of the cheapest Chase bunks in the market.
"Well~ It's so comfortable, hey, everyone is awake, hehe, wait for me for a while, everyone takes off their shirts, it's ugly to wear strips of cloth, go out and buy a few clothes and change them later. After a brief tidying up, Ruya first went to the counter and discussed with the innkeeper about leaving the motorcycle with him, and then walked out of the door of the inn with everyone.
The hostel where they live is not far from the entrance of the market, just out of the house Luya was attracted by the noise around them, the shape of the whole market is like a magnified black stone tribe, a straight main road runs through the whole market, scattered around dozens of shops, the middle of the market is a radius of hundreds of meters of open space, at this time almost every shop is crowded with people, especially the central open space is crowded with people buying and selling.
"It's been a long time since I've seen so many people, it's like I'm rushing to a big set," Lu Ya said to himself as he looked at the orcs walking around him one by one.
"Uncle Berry, where are we going first?" asked Ruya as he turned to Berry, who was on the side.
"Let's go find a merchant and exchange all these leather goods for grain, and see if the shop I traded with last time is not there, I've only been to him before."
"Okay, I'll listen to you, let's take a look at it later, and replace it if necessary, hey~ Don't you need money here" Lu Ya asked suddenly, he had been listening to others talk about exchange, and he didn't know if there was any currency for trading.
"Yes, if you want to trade other things, I heard that you still need money, but we usually just change the grain and leave, but I have seen it before, it is copper coins, silver coins, gold coins, but I have only seen copper coins and silver coins, and I don't know what gold coins look like" Berry said with some embarrassment.
"I've been poor enough all my life, and I've never even seen what a gold coin looks like," Lu Ya said to himself.
"Brother Luya, why do they look at us so strangely" Xiong Er, who was standing behind Luya, suddenly pulled Laruya's arm and asked.
