The rich second generation was forced to start all over again [farming] verse 191
Look at Boss Tan, self-reliance, self-reliance, how long has he been in the north, he has taught himself barbarian, every time they come out together, basically Tan Shishi himself has talked to the barbarians, and he doesn't need to say a few words.
Look at this Boss Lu again, he can say it so well!
And always say something outside of his vocabulary!
It's more tiring to work for him for a day than for Tan Shi for a month! He's going to raise the price!!
Su He and Lu Xu talked nonsense all the way, and when they arrived at the door, they finally remembered the matter, "We used to be valued piece by piece, how much can you give us?" β
Chapter 168: Bargging
Lu Xu: "Piece by piece valuation? β
Also, after all, the quality of the stone is different.
Lu Xu: "Then you can estimate how much they gave in the past, and I will try to follow the usual practice." β
Su He: "Okay, I'll ask my clan elders to help with the valuation, they have traded with the Daqi merchants." β
Lu Xu: "Okay. β
Su He: "Let's take a look at the goods you brought first." β
Lu Xu nodded, remembered something and hurriedly said, "Two days ago, someone from your clan came to our camp to buy things, it doesn't affect it, right?" β
Su He: "I know, it's okay, I'm mainly exchanging things with other tribes. β
Lu Xu was relieved.
Su He: "I heard that Naya exchanged for a very beautiful embroidery, do you still have that kind of embroidery?" β
It turned out that the little girl's name was Naya, Lu Xu: "Yes, that kind of embroidery is more complicated and expensive than ordinary embroidery. I only brought one, if you guys like it, I'll bring some more next time. β
Su He nodded, and he saw the piece that Naya brought back, which was more vivid and realistic than the embroidery he had seen before, and he didn't know how they did it: "Our girl likes your Daqi embroidery silk and other things." β
Lu Xu nodded, and said in his heart that our Daqi girl likes it too! Our Daqi girl also likes your barbarian gems and gold and silver jewelry!
Su He: "We don't like your strange flowers and plants, let's bring some birds and beasts next time." β
Lu Xu thought to himself, you straight man understands the aesthetics of a fart girl, he has never seen a few girls who don't like flowers.
However, he still admitted: "Yes, if you are willing to pay a deposit, you can customize the pattern, and embroider such a big picture of the tiger descending the mountain for you." β
Lu Xu wanted to open his arms and gesture.
Unexpectedly, Su He was pleasantly surprised: "Really? I also want Naya's shiny quality that can see the fluff, how much is the deposit? β
Lu Xu: "......"
Didn't you just dislike the imitation of the stone carving without a soul?
Embroidery again?
Lu Xu suddenly regretted a little, is he too big, how many months does it take to embroider such a big pair?
Lu Xu: "Yes, yes, but at least it has to ...... A year's time......"
Su He: "A year?!" β
Lu Xu: "Maybe longer." β
Su He hesitated a little again, he thought for a while, but still gritted his teeth and said, "One year, how much is the deposit?" β
Lu Xu: "...... A cow? β
Su He: ???
Lu Xu: "Do you have that kind of breed with high milk production?" Uh, I have a younger brother......"
Lu Xu learned a lesson and put his younger brother out first, "I haven't been tall all the time, I heard that drinking milk can grow taller......"
Su He was stunned and said sympathetically: "No problem, I'll choose a cow for you that produces enough milk!" β
Isn't tall, hey, not tall in their Lunlan tribe, it's equivalent to a disability, it's too miserable!
He comforted: "You and General Lu are both tall, your brother will definitely grow taller!" β
Lu Xu nodded in approval, but he didn't know why Su He's tone was so gentle.
Could it be that there are children in his family who have this kind of trouble, and father's love is overflowing?
Lu Xu and Su He worked together to count the goods, and the two sides assessed their respective valuations and began to exchange.
Lu Xu exchanged his remaining goods for two hundred sheep, one male, three females and four cows, plus an embroidery deposit for a cow, ten carts of furs, two carts of animal bones, a cart of herbs commonly used by barbarians, and dry goods of meat and dairy products, and the most surprising thing for Lu Xu was that he exchanged a lot of butter.
The Lunlan people prefer fresh milk and yogurt, and butter is exchanged for porcelain with other tribes.
Su He also gave him a lot of pine nuts, hazelnuts, and mushrooms as rao.
"These pine nuts, roasted, are very fragrant. We love to eat this in winter, just as you Daqi people love to eat pumpkin seeds. β
The pine nuts in Qianlong Ridge are big and full, with high oil content, and they are fragrant, and he also exchanged some with the military households in the camp before, but the Daqi military households generally do not dare to go to Qianjiaoling to pick up mountain goods, and Lu Xu does not get much.
Now it's okay, Hanlu Xiaoxia's cake can have a nut version!
After these exchanges, only half of the silk and high-grade tea leaves were left unexchanged.
Lu Xu is a little entangled, this eighty percent is not enough to change stones, why don't you return some sheep?
But such a fat and strong bleating sheep, he can't bear it!
Lu Xu began to paralyze himself again, those silk and tea are also quite expensive, but they don't look at much, when he took the list to the Luo family to borrow money, Old Man Luo almost pouted.
After counting the sheep and loading the goods, seeing that it was getting dark, the five old men on Suhe's side finally sorted out the quotation.
"These silks and tea can exchange us for ten carts of stones."
Before Lu Xu could speak, Tan Shishi was angry first.
"What?! Do you know how expensive silk is? A silk of this quality can be exchanged for a good horse for you! So much, you just give some broken stones? β
Tan Stone didn't agree to buy stones, in his concept, he is the only valuable stone in the world, and those colorful gems are worthless before they are made into jewelry in gold and silver, and they are all deceiving beautiful girls.
Tan Shishi: "Brother Xu, don't buy it!" You transport these back to Blue Dragon City! I'll pick up some kind of stones for you later! β
Su He: "This kind of stone is only in our hometown, and you can't pick it up at all!" β
Tan Shishi said: "Then I'll find other tribes to collect it, such a prairie, I don't believe that there is only one place, and there is more than one place for gold!" No, let them leave the stones to lay their cubs! β
Both of them can speak barbaric, and they don't need a translator to quarrel, and after a while, Tan Shishi began to speak barbarian and fight against Confucianism, and the translators Lu Xu paid for kept their mouths shut, they quarreled too fast.
Lu Xu looked confused, what is this talking about? What are you talking about? What are you talking about? Yes......!
He wants stones! Don't mess with him!
Lu Xu went from being dazed and entangled to collapsed and numb, probably because Tan Shishi and Lunlan had been doing business for a long time and had a lot of grievances, and they couldn't pull it when they quarreled, Lu Xu tried several times, but to no avail.
But the interpreter pulled him back, "They have gone from the old accounts of a month ago to three months ago, in my experience, there will be an hour before the quarrel is over, it is not early, let's go back today, or find them to make a place for us to sleep overnight?" β
Lu Xu: "......"
Who would have thought that a year or two ago, he was still talking about the barbarian change in his hometown, and now he has to spend the night in the barbarian camp.
Lu Xu asked cowardly, "Is it dangerous to live here?" β
The translator is also entangled, only he and Tan Shishi, they must dare to live, but so many people, so many goods, so valuable......
He thought for a moment and said cryptically, "I think it's better to stay, at least it's safer in the camp at night than outside." β
Most of the people in Lunlan still love peace, there are many people here, and there are twenty Daqi soldiers escorting them in the caravan, and the people of Lunlan know the relationship between Tan Shi and Qiu Hu, and they should not kill people and seize wealth for temporary selfish gain, and provoke the Daqi army.
If they really do it, this is a personal grudge, with General Li Xiu's temper, knowing that their Daqi officials and merchants and the northern army died in the camp tent of Lunlan, they will slaughter the Lunlan tribe and make an example of the entire northern territory.
Those who have dealt with the Northern Frontier Army and know Li Xiu's temper should not make such a provocation on his territory.
It's different if they're out in the wild.
Dead in the wilderness, who knows who killed them? There is no proof of death, and it can even be relied on by wild wolves.
There is no direct murderer, if Daqi doesn't want to start a war with multiple barbarian tribes, let alone Qiu Hu Zhang Baihu, I'm afraid the northern army will not start a war with the barbarians because of the loss of a caravan.
The translator thought about it and whispered his worries to Lu Xu, and it was up to Lu Xu to make an idea of how to decide in the end.
Before he could say a few words, Lu Xu said: "Then borrow it, I don't think Su He and they will be so short-sighted." β
Translation: "......"
I can't see that this Boss Lu is so thorough, no wonder he dared to enter the north at such a young age.
He laughed and was careless, and he actually regarded others as naΓ―ve and naΓ―ve children who only boasted nonsense.
As he was thinking, Lu Xu also whispered to him mysteriously, "Actually, I also have a little friendship with General Li Xiu, if they jump off the wall in a hurry, I will take out the letter and token that General Li gave me to scare them, they will know that I told General Li Xiu that I want to come here, and they will definitely be jealous." β
The translator looked at Lu Xu with a soothing look of "Don't be afraid, I promise I won't let you die here", and smiled dumbly.
The translator said: "I don't know Taishan with eyes, it's because I'm clumsy!" β
Lu Xu smiled.
Translator: "Then I'll go to them and ask where we live?" β
Lu Xu: Okay. β
Seeing that the translator was familiar with the way, Lu Xu didn't ask him who he was going to, and continued to sit on the grass to filter out Tan Shi and Su He's quarrels and bargains, watch Lu Qing and them load the cart and bundle the goods, look at the clouds in the sky, look at the horizon in the distance, drag the grass on the ground, and be in a daze.
A moment later, a pair of leather boots appeared in the peripheral vision, and Lu Xu turned his head and saw Aya with a tangled face.
Lu Xu: "......"
Aya saw him coming, sat down cross-legged next to him with an angry face, and threw Lu Xu a blanket.
Lu Xu thought to himself, let's not talk about whether they are talking about lonely men and widows not being able to sit together, even if he is willing to talk to Aya, he has to know!
Lu Xu wrapped the blanket around his body and said in brute, "Hello, thank you, sheep." β
Friendship:?
Lu Xu changed back to Daqi's official words: "I will know these three sentences, and I won't be able to do anything else." β
Aya was stunned, laughed, and said in a young and unfamiliar Daqi language: "You are very interesting." β
Lu Xu: "Thank you. β
