Chapter 410: Your Elephant Is Good, I Don't Know How Much Money Can You Sell It?
Haitang was deeply shocked by this scene, and she didn't have time to be afraid, and whispered: "It turns out that snakes are afraid of elephants!" ”
Shen Mingjiao pursed her lips and didn't speak, it's not that those snakes are afraid of elephants, but that there are problems with snakes and elephants here.
Poria waved away Ah Cai's hand, straightened the placket, straightened her back and stepped forward:
"In Poria, Xiawujia Village, I came to ask the water patriarch for medicine on the order of my grandfather,"
He pointed to Shen Mingjiao and his party behind him, "These are the companions who came with me." ”
The man sitting on the back of the elephant casually glanced at Shen Mingjiao and his party, who were embarrassed. With his chin held high, he asked:
"Oh, I don't know what medicine I want to ask the patriarch for?"
Poria frowned, but still said as previously discussed: "Someone in the clan was accidentally bitten by a short-tailed pit pit tree, and my grandfather heard that there is a medicine that can cure this snake venom in Shenwu Village. So he asked me to bring the witch doctor to look for it. ”
After speaking, he took out a few pieces of high-quality fur material from his baggage, "This is a thank you gift." ”
The water patriarch quickly glanced at the few pieces of oily and slippery material, "Our Shenwu Village has ancestral teachings, and we are not allowed to enter with outsiders.
But...... It's not easy for you to come all the way, so be it! You wait here, and I'll have the people bring the medicine. ”
Indeed, as the Wu patriarch said, they are in Wenshan City and the same clan, even if the Shenwu Village can't escape from the world, it is not easy to refuse such a trivial matter, besides......
The water patriarch stared at the few pieces of fur without a trace, these are all good materials, and they are worth a hundred gold when they are outside.
Poria frowned, firstly, because she was displeased with the other party's attitude, and they didn't come to ask for any medicine at all! He couldn't help but glance at Shen Mingjiao quickly.
But seeing that Shen Mingjiao's feet seemed to be numb, and she was about to fall, she was quickly supported by Yun Shu on the side, and the purse on her waist accidentally fell when she straightened up. The tether was torn open, revealing a thick roll of silver tickets, and Shen Mingjiao hurriedly bent down to check it.
This action happened to be clearly seen by the water tribal chief sitting on the back of the elephant. His eyes flashed, and his gaze couldn't help but look at Shen Mingjiao carefully.
Before I came, I tried to be realistic in disguise. Several women worked hard, but Fuguang didn't know what to do, and dyed her blonde hair black, so whoever saw them at first glance was just an ordinary Miao woman.
However, at this moment, Shen Mingjiao deliberately straightened her back and raised her chin slightly, even if she was embarrassed, she showed a bit of arrogance and arrogance.
She seemed to have endured it to the limit, and whispered to Poria:
"Didn't Daddy say that you Miao people are the most hospitable? We have walked so far, not to mention the hospitality of good wine and food, so let's go in and drink saliva! ”
Poria was stunned, although he looked straightforward, his mind was delicate, and thanks to the past few days of getting along, he quickly reacted. The Flush Patriarch pleaded in a low voice:
"Can we go in and have a drink and rest?"
The water patriarch frowned hesitantly, there was no rule in the Divine Witch Village that outsiders were not allowed to enter. It's just that very few people set foot on it.
But now, the master in the village is the one who has set up a huge poisonous Ten Thousand Snake Cave outside the village, just to prevent outsiders from entering.
But when the water patriarch thought of the pile of silver tickets he had just seen, and the lowest denomination of the silver tickets was fifty taels, he immediately hesitated.
Anyway, he had just left, and according to the usual practice, the next time he would come over at least three months later.
And he just had to be careful, and when he got the money, he would kill the group. Throw it into the mountains to make sure that the gods don't know it.
He gritted his teeth and nodded arrogantly at everyone: "Yes." ”
The elephant shook off its proboscis and turned its bulky body and walked back slowly, and the group followed the elephant.
Feeling the gaze of the water tribal chief from time to time, Shen Mingjiao suddenly raised her head and said with a smile: "Your elephant is good, I don't know how much money can be sold?" ”
She had a tone that was not bad for money, and the corners of the water patriarch's mouth wanted to go to Yang frantically, but he tried to say coldly with a straight face:
"What nonsense, this is a holy relic in the village, only the patriarchs of the past dynasties can ride it, the beast has a spirit, how can you insult it with money!"
Shen Mingjiao said "oh" very well: "Having said so much, it means that it is more expensive than the elephant next to it!" Your eloquence is really a good hand in sales. After your packaging, this ordinary elephant instantly becomes noble and sacred! ”
She spread her hands: "But after you say so, I really like this elephant, how much is it?" Do you make an offer? ”
The corners of the water chief's mouth really twitched, and he couldn't believe that there was still such an operation!
Poria whispered, "You really want to buy an elephant!" ”
Fu lowered his voice and said: "He pits you, this is just an ordinary elephant, there are many in the mountains, if you want, I will get one for you when you go back." ”
Water Chief: "...... "Are you going to think I'm dead?" Also, when did I say I was going to sell elephants? Probably not!
But...... What is certain at the moment is that this group of people, or this unknown woman, is worth a lot of money.
Nothing happened next, and the group entered the Divine Witch Village smoothly.
Both Miao people, the house buildings of Shenwu Village are no different from Wujia Village except for being more quaint.
The only difference is the feeling that if Wujiazhai is warm and simple, it will give people a cold and depressed feeling of depression.
If there is only one disobedience, it is only the water patriarch of the god witch village in front of him.
The group came to a vacant building on stilts. Poria and the guard Ah Cai followed the water patriarch to get the medicine.
After Shen Mingjiao sat down, two women dressed in authentic Miao costumes came over to serve tea. After the others left, Yun Shu whispered:
"This water chief is really too ......" is not like the head of the clan.
Shen Mingjiao also lowered her voice: "Obviously, this is a little minion!" ”
It stands to reason that even if the patriarch of Shenwu Village is not pedantic and rigid, he cannot be a villain who is greedy for money and has eyes above the top in any case, which is too inconsistent with the behavior of the entire village that has been hiding from the world for thousands of years.
As for the person behind the water tribal leader, you don't have to think about it to know that it must be Qing Yao.
Yun Shu asked, "Then what are we going to do next?" ”
Shen Mingjiao glanced at a corner of the door, and deliberately said loudly:
"Didn't you say that there are thousand-year-old agarwood here? This lifeless, where can I find it? ”
Yun Shu reacted after being stunned for a moment, and then answered with a smile: "Maybe it's the nonsense of the Daoist who travels there, or let's go back after a round of play!" ”
Shen Mingjiao snorted, "I don't want it, my father will collect timber in Wenshan City, but I sneaked out without telling someone, if I don't bring anything back, it will be shameless!" ”
Yun Shu persuaded: "Although the thousand-year-old Shenshui fragrant wood is worth 10,000 gold, but the old man is the richest man in the north, and his family wealth is endless, why do you have to be persistent in finding any wood, Miss?" ”
"What do you know, Daddy will be fiftieth birthday next month, this is a gift for Daddy......"
It was a while more until the figure outside the house disappeared. The two glanced at each other and tacitly agreed.
He patiently took a sip of oil tea. "What kind of dumb riddle are you playing?"
Shen Mingjiao probably glanced at the furnishings in the house: "Obviously, fishing!" ”
Ming rolled his eyes: "The richest man in the north." And personally came all the way to run the merchant to buy goods? Make it up like this, a fool will believe it? ”
Shen Mingjiao asked rhetorically: "Why are those emperors and princes' dramas sought after by the people?"
Because it's outrageous enough, the plot is cool enough. So we don't care about it, as long as the water chief believes it. ”
And the reason why I say this is that the water patriarch is greedy for money and brainless, and he will definitely not be willing to let go of her, the "fat sheep", and they have a reason to continue to stay in Shenwu Village.
Secondly, after knowing that the father of the "fat sheep" is in Wenshan City, the water patriarch will not only not kill them, but will also ensure their safety, because he wants more.
