Chapter 25: Preparing to Return

"Oh, how much iron ore do the Luya brothers need?" Hauss's eyes, which were originally a little confused by drinking, condensed slightly, and then asked a little carelessly.

"Oh, it's not a lot, it's enough within a thousand catties, the tools in the tribe are almost damaged, we are going to make up for it ourselves, and then use it, if we can save a little, we can save a little" After Lu Ya learned about the rarity of high-quality iron tools in the orc clan from Curry, he had a plan, of course, he also knew the importance of this kind of thing, so naturally he would not be stupid to tell the truth, so he casually made up a reason.

"Brother, why save so much, although iron is not very cheap, but it is not necessary to achieve the strength of weapons, just purchase some finished products, brother, if you can't find a way, I will take you there, and I promise not to let you suffer." House was a little unsure of Ruya's words, and after seeing Ruya's shrewdness, he always felt that the little brother had hidden something from him in this matter.

"The old people in the tribe have been thrifty all their lives, and there is also an elder in the tribe who knows some blacksmith skills, and getting some raw ore back is considered to find something for him, so that he can always reprimand us juniors all day long" Lu Ya said that it was not all a lie, there was indeed an old blacksmith in the tribe.

"In that case, then Brother Wei will go back and do it for you, there is a medium-sized tribe producing iron ore nearby, but they are generally directly collected by other large tribes or human chambers of commerce, and there are not many brought to the market, if you look for it yourself, you may not find it." It seemed that after a little groaning, he agreed.

"Thank you so much Big House"

The two exchanged a few words of greeting and then parted at the door of the restaurant, House promised to send the iron ore to Lu Ya tomorrow, and Lu Ya led Xiong Da and Xiong Er to continue to visit the market, and nothing could make Lu Ya interested along the way.

At this time, the sky gradually darkened, Lu Ya picked up dozens of catties of meat from the stall selling food on the side of the road, and bought a few jars of wine brewed by Beast Buli in the restaurant at noon, and the three of them went directly back to the small building that now belongs to Lu Ya.

After returning to the building and looking around, he found that Bai Lifu and the others had not returned, so Lu Ya asked Xiong Da to call Boone and Johnson, and said that they would be invited to dinner, and a few minutes later, Lu Ya greeted the two who were walking quickly at the door.

"Thank you to the two elder brothers for their help today, the younger brother specially prepared some wine and food tonight and the two elder brothers will not be drunk and will not return. ”

"Little brother Luya, we didn't help much, don't be so polite"

"Hey~ yes, we are a patrolman to put it nicely, but in fact, we are just a standing guard, so we can make the Luya brothers look up to it as a priest, we are really ashamed"

Boone and Johnson really have a feeling of facing their confidants when facing Ruya at this moment, and this seemingly extremely young priest makes the two of them feel the wonderful feeling of being valued.

"Two brothers, don't be presumptuous, it's a blessing for me to be able to meet a warm-hearted good person like you, come, don't stand, let's sit down and talk while drinking" Lu Ya said and led the two to the table and sat down, and poured the two of them full of wine.

"Come, do it," Lu Ya said, tilting his head and drinking the wine in the glass. This kind of beast liquor Ruya really doesn't drink very well, like a beer without carbon dioxide, and it tastes sour in the mouth, and it is not interesting. I really don't know how people here are used to drinking. Looking at Boone and the other with a happy squint, he was a little suspicious that there was something wrong with his sense of taste.

A few people chatted while drinking, and when Bai Lifu and others also rushed back, Lu Ya immediately called everyone to eat and drink together, and drank until late at night, and asked Xiong Er to buy wine and meat again, and finally the guests and hosts were happy, and Lu Ya also sent Boone and Johnson away with a smile and told them to come over early tomorrow after dealing with things.

Turning back upstairs, Lu Ya finally couldn't help laughing, and the tribesmen on the side all looked at Lu Ya as if they were human traffickers, which made Lu Ya rub his nose in embarrassment.

It turned out that at the wine table just now, Lu Ya was moved by Boone and Johnson with affection and reason, and then tempted them to benefit, and finally when the atmosphere was strong, he moved the two of them to resign from the patrol and take care of the shop for Lu Ya instead.

After learning about it, Lu Ya learned that this shop used to be a business of buying and selling, and the store bought the goods that came here to sell in a piecemeal, and then sold them to the human caravans who came here from time to time to buy, and if they did a good job, they could also have an income of more than ten gold coins a year, and Lu Ya, who did not miss a chance to make money, naturally did not want to give up this piece of fat that was not too big, but it took care of the store and needed manpower, and he himself could not stay here all the time, and the people in the tribe also felt that it was not very suitable, so he started the idea of Boone and Johnson, and the two of them were also very face-saving and did not let Lu Ya take it down without much tongue, and they would come to work tomorrow。

Berry told Ruya that all the goods he brought had been sold except for the little devil bear skin, and that the mountain furs looked like a lot, but in fact they were sold for less than 1 gold coin, and as for the skins of the little devil bear, these bids were too low, and Berry felt that the money was enough, so he didn't want to buy it and took it back. Then Berry told Ruya that another problem was that he couldn't get back what he bought with too much money.

Lu Ya later couldn't help but have a headache, in the past, those things of the tribe every year were at most one or two thousand catties of beasts ignored, for the strong orcs, more than a dozen people carried their shoulders and easily went back, but this time there was too much money, if it was hard to buy food, tens of thousands of catties were bought, so Bai Lifu threw this trouble that made him happy to Lu Ya, let him think of a way, and suddenly let everyone jump from the dilemma that even the winter was a problem to start worrying about too much food and couldn't pull it back, which couldn't help but make Bai Lifu admire Lu Ya even more。

"Is it really the priests who are smarter than us?" muttered the normally stern Berry a little.

Lu Ya didn't have much to do about this, he thought about it all night, and the next morning Lu Ya came to the place where the grain was stacked, and he was speechless, only to see a large number of beasts in rattan baskets piled up two or three stories high.

"Uncle Cliff, you're not going to buy all the beasts in this bazaar, are you?"

"What's the matter, I only bought 5 gold coins, but this kind of beast is generally a big tribe for slaves to plant in pieces, and then sell to us small tribes or feed livestock, so there is still a lot of inventory" Speaking of this, Bai Lifu was still a little gloomy, after all, he was the kind of small tribe that ate other people's animals to feed livestock.

"Then what do their big tribes usually eat?" asked Ruya.

"Those big tribes generally eat white rice and meat, but not to mention meat, even white rice is several times the price of the beast," Bai Lifu was a little envious.

"If these beasts are ignored, they can be left in the shop and sold or exchanged for other tribes, you can take all this money and buy white rice and some small livestock, and in the future, our tribe will also eat white rice, and never eat those beasts again" Ruya gave Bolev another 10 gold coins, plus what House gave yesterday and the rest of the money, and now he has less than 5 gold coins.

As soon as the distressed Berry was sent away, House and Dwayne Johnson arrived on their feet.

"Brother House really keeps his word, hehe, I don't know how much all this iron ore is," Ruya asked happily when he noticed the large baskets of iron ore being carried behind House.

"Brother Luya, these rough iron ore stones are not cheaper than finished ironware, they are all very cheap, they should be regarded as a meeting gift from my brother, and it is not good to talk about money," House replied in a small tone.

"Hehe, it's better to be respectful, this is all the soap I brought this time, I'll give it to Big Brother House to sell on my behalf, and next time I wait for Big Brother's people to send the grease to the tribe, I can provide batches of soap." ”

Yesterday, the two discussed, if the market is opened, every once in a while House will send someone to the Blackstone tribe with grease and spices, and then bring it back for him to sell after making soap from Luya, the soap brought by Luya this time will be handed over to House to let him try to open the market, he is not worried that House will not admit it, after all, both sides are not fools, only cooperation can achieve a win-win situation, this is the consensus, no one will do that kind of stupid thing to kill chickens and eggs.

After handing over the soap, Luya pulled Boone and Johnson to the side and introduced them to House.

"These two are the eldest brother who helped me yesterday, they used to be the patrol of the market, and now they have decided to take care of this shop for me, and they will ask Brother House to take care of it in the future."

"Oh~ Brother Lu Ya is very capable, you can find such two cadres, you can find me directly if you have anything in the future, you are welcome" House was a little surprised that Lu Ya could envelop the two trainee wrestlers so quickly, and his evaluation of Lu Ya increased a few points in his heart.

After House left, Luya simply told Johnson and Boone about the operation of the store, and then gave the last 4 gold coins and fragmentary silver and copper coins to the two of them as the store's working capital, and the bear skin was directly displayed in the store. The two of them were extremely moved by Lu Ya's trust, and they couldn't stand the eyes of the two, so Lu Ya went out to help Bai Lifu and the others who had come back to sort out the supplies.

The next morning, the people who had finished tidying up gathered at the gate of the market, and Ruya still rode on the nephew to recycle the ten large wooden carts full of goods behind House, Couch, Johnson, Boone and others who had come to see them off.

"Departure"

With Lu Ya's order, the fully loaded team slowly started and walked in the direction of home・・・・・・
