Chapter 10: Uribe
"Master, there is a caravan down the mountain, they want to exchange playing cards and Ao Runzhi powder, there are more than forty people."
Emma walks to the bedroom and informs Lawrence of the news from the mountain.
Lawrence looked at the sky outside, it was already night, and the family had changed into their pajamas and were ready for bed.
"Go down tomorrow, Friesen will arrange empty houses and food for those people, don't worry."
Emma nodded and said, "Yes, then I'll rest too." ”
"Okay." Lawrence lay down on the queen bed and got ready for bed after Emma closed the door and left.
Four witches were playing cards at the table, their hair not yet dry, and they needed to wait until they were completely dry before going to bed.
Sariel said as she played cards, "Lawrence, do you want me to follow you down the mountain tomorrow?" ”
Lawrence thought for a moment.
There are not many people in more than forty people, and they should also be merchants from the city of Pig's Trotter.
I've been in business several times, and there must be some slaves among the more than forty people on the other side, and it's no problem to bring a dozen people on my side, plus those people in the town, right?
Soon after the idea popped up, Lawrence threw it away.
As a native of Tranta's Hoof, Lawrence knew exactly what it was like.
Once they show signs of vulnerability, the bandits will not do any long-term business.
Moreover, there were basically no official caravans in the city of Trandahoof, and the caravans that were several times were either private family caravans or the subordinates of some noble.
More of them are caravans of part-time robbers, many of whom have come to make a fortune when they have heard that they have high-value goods here, and their evil intentions are higher than normal trade.
For these businessmen who want to make a fortune, Lawrence feels that he must be careful.
"Go down with me, you don't have anything else to do every day, isn't it okay to walk around with me?"
Sariel wanted to sleep in the morning, so she asked symbolically.
After receiving the opposite answer, Sariel looked at the wooden sign in her hand very casually, "Okay, let's be together." ”
Sophia took the initiative to look at Lawrence and said, "I also want to be with the master." ”
Lawrence said, "Sophia stayed at the manor and I just went over with Sariel. ”
Sophia was a little regretful, but she didn't care about it, "Okay, master." ”
Both Delen and Kehalan are usually inactive personalities, and the strength of the witch comes from the bloodline, and she does not deliberately exercise her body.
Lawrence felt that forty people was not a lot, and the blacksmith shop would have to work tomorrow, and taking too many people away would affect the work over there.
"Delen is with me, Kehalan, are you okay tomorrow?"
Keharan was not interested in the transaction, so he directly made an excuse, "I'm looking for some medicinal materials to treat wounds, and it just so happens that there are many of them now." ”
Lawrence nodded, "Autumn is indeed a good time. ”
"Then I'll go down the mountain with Saliel and Deren tomorrow, everyone have a good rest today, I'll sleep first!"
Soon Lawrence rolled into the corner and began to sleep facing the wall.
Khallan smiled, knowing full well that Lawrence didn't want to do something that would be physically demanding.
Fortunately, witches do not have strong desires during this period, they do not think about things all day long like humans, and only become active when they feel the need to conceive life.
At that time, the desire was as fierce as a torrent, unstoppable.
None of the four witches reached such a time, so Lawrence could sleep until dawn, and even if he slept with the four witches, no one touched him in the middle of the night.
Early in the morning, Lawrence felt like he couldn't breathe and almost had nightmares.
When she opened her eyes, she saw a heavy blonde girl lying on her stomach, and Sophia fell asleep on top of her without knowing why.
Lawrence set Sophia aside and looked at Sariel, who was sleeping crookedly.
Saliel alone took up most of the bed, and the seemingly wild Delen slept like a lady, while Keharan slept like an elegant vampire noblewoman, as serene as a dead man, with her hands folded on her abdomen.
As soon as Lawrence placed Sophia on the bed next to him, Sariel quickly kicked her, "Uh-huh...... Don't press my hair......"
Poor Sophia was kicked by Saliel and pushed Lawrence, and soon opened her eyes in a daze, and then hugged Lawrence to sleep.
Lawrence sat up with Sophia in his arms, feeling that it was indeed necessary to sleep in separate beds, or even separate rooms.
Looking at the dripping basin in the house, there was still more than half an hour before dawn.
Lawrence got up and put Sophia inside, carefully getting off the bed, trying not to step on Sariel's hair.
Got out of bed and got dressed, and saw the contents of the house clearly with the help of the moonlight outside.
Lawrence walked over to the fireplace and found the lighter, and began to light the ignition on the igniter.
When the oil lamp came on, Lawrence noticed that Delenn and Kehalan were also sitting up.
Delen began to get dressed, and although he got up early, he also went to bed quite early every day.
Basically, I went to bed at nine o'clock every day, because it was dark early, and playing cards was at most one or two hours, and it was already very late to stay up until nine o'clock.
Delen's clothes are relatively simple, with a simple jacket and corset, and a strange combination of leather skirt and trousers underneath.
Keharan, still wearing supple white pajamas, walked to the side and lay down on the sofa, not competing for space in the bed with Salil.
Lawrence went downstairs to wash up and warm up, and it was already very light when he was done.
Ordered the day's work as usual, and then after eating, he took Sariel and Delen, and ten workers down the mountain with the sheep.
Lawrence went to the blacksmith's furnace in charge of Seravon again, and after some advice, he slowly descended the mountain.
***
Uribe's patience burned out.
Waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting,
Until this morning, the man had not appeared.
The anger in his heart gradually turned into killing intent.
"They're coming!" A strong, sloppy man quickly ran into the house and said happily to the serious-faced Uribe: "There are only ten people! There are only four men! ”
Uribe quickly stood up, "Grab your weapons, if it's that Lawrence, we'll conquer this place!" ”
The female warrior beside Uribe quickly reminded, "That person is a sorcerer. ”
Uribe has a flexible bottom line, "I'll try to fight him first, if he's not good, I'll kill him, and then conquer here!" ”
The leisurely Lawrence soon met the Baumitheus, as well as the merchants with weapons and swords and shields.
Delenn visibly sensed the anomaly, "Lawrence, be careful, these people look like robbers. ”
Lawrence nodded, "I know that if they are going to do it later, the two of you will have to deter them by using axes to solve the two quickly." ”
Every time he went about business, Lawrence carried a weapon.
This is a necessary protection in this era.
The two soon meet, and Lawrence discovers that the leader of the other party is a good-looking blonde warrior.
Blonde hair is not unusual, this woman's hair is a little darker, not as dazzling as Sophia.
Uribe also looked at Lawrence, and at the first sight of the young man, Uribe took him for prey.
Prey such as shells and ivory, hides, etc.
From this man, Uribe did not feel strength, nor did he feel the terrifying majesty and momentum.
His fancy feathered clothes seemed to Uribe as ridiculous as his age.
A man of this age could never be a wizard prophet!
Uribe quickly said, "I am Uribe, is the Prophet of Ravenfeather here?" Let's exchange goods. ”
Lawrence said calmly, "I am the prophet here, Lawrence Ravenfeather. ”
Uribe glanced at Lawrence, then at the woman in the animal skin skirt beside Lawrence.
Compared to this woman, the village girl in the linen skirt on the other side did not need to be guarded.
Uribe could feel the aura of a strong man from this woman, just as this woman looked at her indifferently at this time, it was a proof of a strong man!
With just one face, Uribe was sure that the woman was the rumored daughter of a berserker.
If you want to conquer this place, the first thing you need to do is avoid this woman.
Uribe was quick to say, "Mighty Prophet, look at the goods we have brought, we have brought amber, walrus ivory, whale oil, and wheat and jewels. ”
Lawrence smiled, "We also have a lot of nice stuff here, there are playing cards, Orun powder, combs, mosquito nets, crow droppings. ”
Crow dung is Lawrence's newfound commodity, and although this thing is useless, maybe someone will buy it~
In short, it is used to make up the number, and before the new product is developed, what is there is to make up the number, otherwise it is not good to be too shabby.
Mosquito nets are also counted, Lawrence knows very well how powerful the body hair of the barbarian robbers is, even if the mosquitoes stretch out their mouths, they can't reach the skin, and they will be blocked by a dense circle of curly hair, plus the mosquitoes in the northern region do not live on people, basically all mosquitoes are very weak, and they can live without mosquito nets.
Humans who can adapt to the snoring of barbarians are basically not disturbed by the sound of mosquitoes.
And for a simple-brained barbarian, such a thing as a mosquito net needs to be hung and opened, which is too troublesome.
The hard currency of the barbarian world is still wine, food, weapons and medicines, and now there is one more playing card.
The two sides soon traded on the ground, and Lawrence got off the sheep's back to inspect the goods.
Uribe tried to do it, but found that "Sariel" and another village girl were standing behind Lawrence, and wouldn't give her a chance.
Today's first three watches, tomorrow afternoon to make up.
