Chapter forty-four, the wolf clan
The two Indians from the Emma tribe next to him frowned and said to Maris without hesitation: "White-skinned pig, what should we do with our transaction?"
The translator invited by Maris did not dare to offend the powerful Emma tribe warriors, and of course he did not dare to translate it directly to Maris. He could only say to Maris with a bitter face: "Mr. Maris, what should the people from the Emma tribe do if they ask about their transaction?"
Maris frowned and focused on the blue and white porcelain that looked like a work of art in the kingdom of heaven. There was a spiritual concern for the poor people from the Emma tribe, and said impatiently: "Tell them that these goods have been sold to Mr. Ye, and there is nothing for them."
The thin European who was in charge of the translation immediately cursed inwardly, "Why did he dare to talk to the people of the Emma tribe like this? Isn't this obvious trick on them?"
It was cold and the people of the Emma tribe were wearing two layers of animal skin clothes, each carrying hundreds of kilograms of fur, and walked over here for more than ten miles. If they couldn't buy enough food and went back, they wouldn't have the terrifying giant wolf to tear him to pieces? These Indian barbarians were not easy to provoke!
He looked at the warriors of the Emma Tribe in horror, and his mouth twitched, and was about to explain the interests of these Indians to Maris, but Ye Feiyu suddenly smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will trade with the people of the Emma Tribe."
The Grizzly Tribe warrior Tyron, who led the way, said to the warrior of the Emma Tribe: "Two Emma's brothers, I am from the Grizzly Tribe. A few days ago, I brought food and weapons to your tribe for exchange. Please wait a moment. We Brother Ye can provide everyone with the goods needed by the Emma Tribe, and the price is definitely cheaper than that of the white-skinned pig."
Tyron has a relatively flexible mind in the Grizzly Tribe, and he accepts new things quickly. He speaks well and temporarily comforts the people of Emma Tribe.
The burly warrior of the Emma tribe who had just spoken, his eyes were not big but his fierce light flashed. He had two hideous gray wolves tattooed on his neck. He looked like the leader of the Emma tribe warrior. He nodded slightly and said, "My name is Modocchi. It turns out that the iron pots and machetes were exchanged for us by friends of the Grizzly Bear Tribe. I heard from the clan leader that not only the quality is better than that of the white-skinned pigs, but also the price is cheaper. At that time, I was hunting outside and I had never seen you, but I believe in you. We can wait for you to complete the exchange first."
After saying that, he greeted another companion, returned to the crowd of Emma tribe, and explained to others why he stopped trading.
After hearing Ye Feiyu's statement that there is still a chance to trade in the future, and because Ye Feiyu knew the location of the Spaniard, Maris naturally did not dare to treat Ye Feiyu as a Kaizi anymore. After a brief estimate, his two ships of cargo were finally discounted by 3,100 British Queen gold coins.
The cost of these goods, together with the cost of hiring ships and guards, was about 700 gold coins, which had already made Maris a lot of money.
Then, he used the price of these 3,100 gold coins and brought the remaining hundreds of gold coins. The captains of the armed merchant ships, sailors, and members of the guards. When they saw these goods with amazing interests, they couldn't help but join them together to gather 300 gold coins.
In the end, the cash and goods of these 4,200 gold coins were bought from Ye Feiyu a box of twelve sets of Liushen brand flower dew water, twenty sets of exquisite bone porcelain, two blue and white porcelain vases, a box of tea cakes, and a box of Shuangxi brand cigarettes.
Although these cigarette labels have not been torn off, it is hard to say whether Europeans can understand the Age of AD with the production date of 2015. Even if there are really any doubts, Ye Feiyu doesn't care. Can they still go to the position and buy goods by themselves?
A bottle of flower dew water costs fifteen yuan per bottle, which costs fifty gold coins, and a set of bone porcelain costs one hundred gold coins per set. Blue and white porcelain is the most expensive, with two hundred gold coins per bottle. Maris is afraid that he would break the blue and white porcelain on the way back, so he dare not buy them all. He only needs two, which adds up to three thousand gold coins.
Tea and cigarettes were used by Maris to protect their capital. Even if the porcelain was broken a lot during the voyage, there were these tea cakes and cigarettes, they would not lose much during this voyage. Maris had never been exposed to the rolled cigarettes, but he had a strong sense of business. He tasted a cigarette assigned by Ye Feiyu and immediately felt that it was a high-end product that could demonstrate the temperament of a nobleman. He gritted his teeth and bought a box of twelve cigarettes back.
Maris, who obtained this batch of precious goods, did not stay in North America for too long. He asked about the location of Ye Feiyu and knew that Ye Feiyu could be found in Bison Valley in the future. Then he replenished fresh water in the river, so he set sail and left the river bay and stepped up his speed to return to the European continent.
Their five-masted sailboats are pretty good at speeds of seventeen or eighteen knots at normal times, which is about thirty kilometers per hour. However, no matter how smooth it is, it will take two or three months to return to the UK from North America.
The people of the Emma tribe were very patient, but this patience was only for their friends. The Grizzly Tribe sold them delicious food, seasonings, and excellent iron pot machetes at low prices. In the eyes of the simple Indians, the Grizzly Tribe was their friend.
Ye Feiyu looked at the giant gray wolf surrounding them, and could tell that it was not a wolfdog or a dog like a shepherd, but a real predator wild wolf. He couldn't help but wonder that these amazing guys were not easy to deal with guns, and I don't know how the people from the Emma tribe could tame them.
The Katak tribe has lived on this land for hundreds of years, and is much clearer about the situation nearby than the Grizzly tribe who has been here for only a few years.
Seeing Ye Feiyu's face showing doubt, Karon, the sharpshooter of the Katak tribe, whispered: "Brother Ye, the people of the Emma tribe believe in the wolf god, are cruel to the enemy and to their own people. There is a wolf valley near the camp where they live. They will deliberately kill the little wolf who has just given birth to it, and then throw their children into the wolf's den and let the female wolf feed it on their behalf."
"Sometimes, the female wolf whose milk is so swelling up will let the baby suck the milk, so that the baby will survive with the smell of the wolf clan. When these babies grow to a certain extent, the Emma tribe will take back the tribe, because it is born close to the gray wolf, and can tame the small gray wolf to drive the tribe."
Ye Feiyu took a breath of air. The Emma tribe is really cruel. I have heard of some wolf children and monkeys on Earth, but this is a very rare one after all. Even if the people from the Emma tribe deliberately raise wolf children like this, it would be good if one of the ten babies survived.
He looked at it and saw that the dozen gray wolves were actually circled around two particularly burly Emma warriors, as if they regarded these two wolves. The two Emma warriors had very thick and vigorous hair, and their eyes were green and gloomy, which was really like a vicious wolf, with very fierce appearance and temperament.
The people from the Emma tribe were waiting for more than three hours, and no one came to ask when Ye Feiyu and Maris would end the transaction.
Patience is a quality that no Indian lacks. Without enough patience, one cannot hunt those alert beasts. However, the Emma tribe, who believes in the wolf clan, is obviously more patient than ordinary people, just as stoic as the wolf clan they believe in.
Of course, they are also far more cruel than ordinary Indians.
The gloomy Emma tribe warrior watched from the side. Although he didn't speak, it put a lot of pressure on the Europeans. This was also the reason why the Europeans moved out nearly forty tons of cargo from two cargo ships in just three hours.
In Ye Feiyu's opinion, these goods were almost the same as garbage. Sprouted and rotten potatoes, moldy corn bags that emitted a strange smell, as well as rough iron pots, knives, rag-like clothes, and some debris such as clay pots and pottery bowls. This was what Europeans took out to exchange precious fur and gold goods with North American Indians.
The only thing that is a bit pricey for Europeans is a few barrels of gunpowder and lead bullets, and some outdated mesh rope guns.
These two ships of cargo are simply worthless to Ye Feiyu. They are so expensive that they are too lazy to negotiate with the Europeans. They only give Europeans hard work and the demonstration effect of a thousand gold horse bones. In the future, if Europeans want to trade with Ye Feiyu, they have to take out valuable things such as real money, silver, or ore raw materials.
No matter which plane, energy and materials, including biological materials and ore materials, are the mainstream of transactions. Now all Ye Feiyu can do is to exchange energy with original materials, as well as high-tech products, such as genetic agents.
