Chapter 27 Let's Trade
"Well, your name is Seto, right? Representatives of the Evil Wolf Tribe, let's take a look at your cargo. One hundred and thirty-one complete and fine furs, twenty catties of potatoes are worth one piece of fur, and two American ginsengs are worth ten pieces of fur. It's a total of one hundred and seventy-one furs, right? ”
"Yes, sir. ”
"Very well, this is your fur roll, count it to be sure. ”
"Okay, the number is correct. ”
"Okay, next!"
In the center of the camp, there are three warehouses, and in the center of these three warehouses is a small house. Now, almost all the Indians who have just entered the city are waiting in long lines here. When I looked up, it said Fur Roll Exchange Office. Fur rolls, Shawlin's first attempt at issuing his own banknotes in his own camp.
At present, the trade between Sholin and the Indians is still dominated by fur for the time being. When it's time to actually trade, you can't go to the stall with a bunch of furs to buy something. It's just too inconvenient, both for buyers and sellers. The point is that if this thing is accidentally damaged, the price will plummet. So, there should always be a replacement, and the fur roll appeared.
This is Sholin, the new banknote made in the 21st century on the pretext of counterfeit toy money. Shawlin narcissistically printed his own head on the fur roll, and then thought about it, and printed the pearl's head. After beautifying, only those closest to you can recognize whose face it is at once. So, now only Apache and the Eagle are despising Shoren.
Originally, everyone didn't believe in the purchasing power of this kind of fur roll, and everyone thought that Xiao Lin was going to take it by force. Several other tribes almost used force in the camp, but in the end, it was the Apache who came out to relieve the siege. Of course, Apache is also the childcare arranged by Shoren. Apache directly took more than a hundred small carvings in front of everyone, exchanged for twenty-one fur rolls, and then, in exchange for a compound bow in the shop opened by Xiao Lin, he tried it directly, and shot an arrow into the wooden house one hundred and twenty meters away.
Such a set of compound bows is worth ten pieces of fur. Every time, Xiao Lin began to trick people again. As the one who saved Xiao Lin's life and helped him through the first most difficult time, and has always had a great affection for Xiao Lin now, the Eagle tribe who always tried their best to help him, of course, can have a good price and more powerful weapons. However, these new tribes that have just come into contact with it will not work. For now, these people are not sure if they will be enemies of Xiao Lin.
After all, when Xiao Lin's power develops to a certain extent, he must squeeze out the living space of irrelevant people in order to reward his subordinates or the vassal forces that have been following him. Xiao Lin is very willing to take these people with him, but this requires them to take Xiao Lin as their leader. However, Shawlin has not done anything that can make them worship now. Even, the identity of Xiao Lin, an Indian, is actually fake.
Therefore, in a short period of time, it is impossible for these people to guarantee 100% that they will not be enemies of Xiao Lin. Therefore, Xiao Lin deliberately asked the people in the factory to use self-made, inferior bowstrings to assemble a batch of composite bows. The effective range of the new compound bow is one hundred and twenty meters, beyond which the striking power and accuracy will be greatly reduced, and there will be no threat to the cuirass. With such power, it was sold for twice the original price, and the people of other tribes still swept it away.
With the Apache as an example, all Indians believed that the paper had purchasing power. After all, they believed that the young patriarch of the Eagle Tribe would not deceive them for someone they had never seen before and was not from the Eagle Tribe. Slowly, one by one, the Indians sent their wares into the warehouse, then picked up the fur rolls from Sholin, and then went to Shawlin's stall to exchange everything they liked.
The best-selling ones are still from modern fruit knives. These things are both sharp and hard. Whether it's used to handle prey, sharpen some wood tools, or even use it as a throwing knife in times of crisis. Xiao Lin thought to himself, the manufacturer of these fruit knives must not have thought that these garbage could be exchanged for a piece of fur, and the supply was still in short supply.
On the first day, everyone was sure that there would be anything good in the bazaar, and they didn't take out all their own money. Each tribe only took about one-third of their family money. However, the people who came to the bazaar returned to the tribe with all sorts of good things, and everyone went crazy. If you have free time, you will take your own family with you, and rush here as soon as it is dawn. If you don't have time to come, you can ask a friend or brother to help you exchange it for something good.
So, the next day, all the stalls under Xiao Lin consumed a lot of supplies. The goods had to be removed from the warehouse for the inhabitants who flocked to the storehouse. On the third day, in the afternoon, the goods on the stalls were sold out. On the fourth day, the Indians sold out of the good things in the stalls in one morning. But that's the end of it.
The Indians were so unproductive that the four days of shopping spree had almost exhausted their inventory. As long as Xiao Lin brought anything made of steel, they bought it all. The rest is some clothes and food. Sholin deliberately opened a small restaurant in the camp that specializes in selling convenience food bought from the 21st century. For people in the 21st century, the only thing that can be desired is probably the fragrance brought by adding too many ingredients.
The Indians, who tried these for the first time, were immediately conquered by the convenience food from the empire of big foodies. At the end of a meal, a person has to spend two pieces of fur to be full. I will probably eat three cans and a 200ml bottle of liquor. This level of consumption is a level that only those powerful warriors and tribal chiefs and elders who capture the most are able to consume it on a regular basis.
For the next three days, every day, those drunk fighters fought in small restaurants because of some minor conflicts. At first, Shawlin did suffer a lot of losses. Afterwards, they also apologized and apologized. However, there are still many people who recidivize later. As a last resort, Xiao Lin could only arrange two teams of forty guards here.
All in all, the trade fair went very smoothly. Each tribe was given at least fifty powerful 21st-century steel weapons, and Sholin was given furs piled up in three small warehouses and a variety of plants that were either precious or urgently needed in the current camp. And for this reason, each tribe has also become Xiao Lin's wage earner in disguise, and will continue to export wealth for him.
