Chapter 174 [Galens Trading Group]

Returning to Wildfire Town, Xia Ya's return this time can be regarded as a real return home in glory. The person who walked out from here was a penniless wild boy carrying a rusty firewood chopping axe. But now Xia Ya is wearing gorgeous clothes, high-quality deer-skin boots, and first-class military horses, and has become a young noble of the Byzantine Empire and a powerful force in the military affairs of a county.

I found a hotel in Wildfire Town. The first thing I did was to ask the servants in the store to get a few buckets of water and ask the guy Tiangong to take a shower happily - otherwise his fishy smell would be smoky for a few steps, and even Xia Ya couldn't stand it anymore.

Tian Gong had enough food and drink, and after changing the wash, put on a new dress from Xia Yayun. Although the goblin lord was ugly, he had a glorious look in his eyes after he had cultivated himself, and he finally regained a bit of the tough style that even Hasting dared to bear when Xia Ya first met.

However, once Tiangong recovered his energy, he grabbed Xia Ya and entangled him. After all, he asked Xia Ya to take it to find Oaks.

Speaking of Ox, Charia was also a little guilty. After he went out last time, he joined the Rodria cavalry by chance. Then he experienced a war between the Odins and the Byzantines and accumulated military merits. He was like a fish in the Byzantine team. Later, by chance, he became a baron nobleman and became a local official of Byzantine. Although he didn't have much sense of belonging to the Byzantine country, his mentality was very different at this moment, and he felt a little bit of favor in his heart. Seeing that he became more and more proud of himself in the Byzantine official system, he gradually made up his mind to keep going in the Byzantine Empire.

As for Oaks... the poor goblin princess was thrown into a scattered house in the mountainous house in his hometown to raise horses. After Shaya left home, it has been almost a year since then. Many times, she almost forgot the goblin servant who stayed in the mountains to guard the house.

Moreover... With the unsafe loyalty of the goblins to him, I had been away from home for more than half a year. Maybe Ox would have run away long ago. When I go back now, I probably left myself an empty and broken house.

Xia Ya had no choice but to agree to Tiangang first, but still added: "I am only responsible for taking you to find Oaks, but if it is unwilling to follow you, you are not allowed to force it. No matter how you say it is also my servant now, and if you dare to force it, I will not agree."

Tiangong stared at Shaya with a pair of small eyes: "Servant? No!! Oaks, wife, mine!"

Xia Ya just smiled and said nothing. Tian Gong glared at him for a while. After all, he knew that he had no choice but to sigh and look sad: "Suosuo, yours, ransom, I will pay! Ransom, Sosuo, exchange, Oaks!"

Want to redeem yourself? Xia Ya smiled and thought that if you can afford to pay, I don’t care about giving you Oaks, a goblin who only knows how to eat and don’t work, but I’m afraid Oaks will not accept it. After all, I have been with me for a while, and I feel embarrassed to throw it out and sell it.

"Gold! Lots! Gold! Exchange! Wife!!" Seeing that Xia Ya was just laughing strangely and not talking, Tian Gong gritted his teeth: "Gold, lots!"

Xia Ya looked at the goblin lord and sneered, "Don't you know you goblins if you bully me? You goblins are so poor that you are beggars. Even if you are the tribe lord, you cannot have much wealth. Gold? I don't believe it."

Tiangong was anxious: "Gold, I have it! The woods! East! Zhaku!"

When it comes to Zaku, not only Xia Ya, but also Dodoro's eyes lit up.

"Zakkutu people?" Xia Ya pondered for a moment: "Zakkutu people have heard that they have occupied a gold mine, but how could you have their gold?"

Tiangong was anxious and sweating profusely. Its human language was not very smart. It used both hands and feet and gestured for a long time before he could say something.

It turns out that Tiangong is a famous goblin lord in the red wilderness. Because of its bravery, its tribe is one of the most powerful tribes in the red wilderness. The goblin race has no unity at all. Even the goblins in the tribe have only awe of awe, and there is no much loyalty at all. A big tribe, it naturally needs to feed a large population. If the lord cannot lead everyone to survive, then the goblins may rebel, no matter what kind of attack on heaven and earth, no matter what lord or leader you are, you will still cook and eat it first.

However, goblins have low IQ and are loose sand. For many years, they have really no management skills. After a tribe grows, they often cannot raise the gnomes of the tribe because of the poor land in the red wilderness and the larger tribe, and eventually they will have civil strife. Therefore, there is always no real goblin king in the red wilderness. Once the tribe grows, they will eventually collapse. One reason is that the goblins are not united in nature, and another reason is that the goblins have low IQ and do not know how to manage them.

However, the tribe of Tianying is an alternative. In addition to being the first warrior among the goblins, the tribes in the tribe respected and surrendered to him. Another unique reason has enabled its tribe to solve the food problem.

Its tribe is located in the northwest of the red wilderness, occupying a relatively rich river beach area, and at the same time, it also has a forest - the most wonderful thing is this forest! Although the forest is not big, it has a natural spring.

The spring water has been endless for many years, even in the cold winter, it does not freeze and dry up. Unfortunately, for the goblins, the spring itself is useless - the spring water is bitter and hard to drink. I think it was some groundwater that gushed out, and I don’t know what underground mineral components it contains in the water quality. Not to mention the goblins themselves, even if they catch cattle and sheep, they don’t drink a gulp.

All things are born with magical things. The spring water is in the middle of the woods. The bitter spring water cannot be drunk, but it moistens the surrounding land and grows a plant that is not elsewhere.

According to Tiangong, the forest it has is near the center of the spring. There is a strange tree growing. The tree is thought to be grown by sucking in the strange spring water. The wood is extremely hard and metal is compared! In summer, leaves as big as palms are hanging on the branches. I heard that even the leaves are extremely hard. In the tribe of Tiangong, some goblins came up with a way to collect the strange and solid leaves. After the wind blows and drying, several leaves are superimposed. The degree of hardness is almost no less than that of ordinary iron armor leaves, and the weight is lighter, which is suitable for use by goblins, a short and fragile creature.

Using this strange "iron leaves" to wove armor and sharpen the branches of the iron tree as spears, this is the regular equipment of the goblin soldiers of the tribe of the Heavenly Attack.

What's even better is that the iron tree growing around the bitter spring water grows on the trunks of strange mushrooms every year - these mushrooms are extremely fragrant, but they are not enough to eat them. If some goblins dare to take a bite, they will be poisoned to death in less than a night.

But this poisonous mushroom made the Tiangong Tribe rich!

Listening to Tiangong, since its father's generation, its tribe had traded with the Zakutu tribe far west of the red wilderness. Although the goblins were not friendly to humans, they still had some friendship with the Zakutu neighbor who lived together on the wildfire field.

The Zaku Tu tribe will send people to the Tiangong tribe every few months to buy the poisonous mushrooms.

This poisonous mushroom is useless to goblins, but the Zaku natives regard it as treasures. Not only does they need it, they are polite every time they come to buy it.

The tribe of Tiangong has been relying on the poisonous mushrooms growing around the bitter spring to earn the benefits of the Zakutu people from every transaction. Every time, it can be exchanged for many food, livestock, and even gold from the Zakutu people!

Although the Zakutu tribe owns a gold mine - the rare metal of gold has no practical use unless it is used as currency in the civilized world and can only have real value when circulated.

But imagine, what should a native tribe living in the deep mountains and forests do for so much gold? Only occasionally do some human trading groups that go into the mountains to trade with the Zaku people will take away some gold. However, on weekdays, there are so much gold, and the natives just pile it up at home as decoration. I even heard that even the children of Zaku people can wear gold at will - in that place, this thing is the most valuable thing.

After hearing this, Chara's eyes suddenly shone, and Dodoro and Philip next to him also changed their expressions, only Salba stuffed meat into his mouth.

Gold! Gold!!

Xia Ya's biggest problem now is money! He became a nobleman, but according to the accounts that Yulia calculated for him, he could not support a large number of people! Moreover, to rectify the military affairs of Moor County, it also requires a large amount of military expenditure. Where does the money come from? Relying on local fiscal and taxation, then just shake your head faster. If you can get gold from the Zakutu people... then...

"Okay! I'll make a deal with you!" Xia Ya's eyes rolled: "Don't you want Oaks! I don't want your ransom, and I don't even look down on the broken copper and iron of your goblin tribe! I want your forest! The spring poisonous mushrooms, the annual output of this year, I'll want!!!"

When Tiangong heard this, he was stunned. However, although it was infatuated, it was still a lord after all. He hesitated: "Mushrooms, exchange them for food, I will give them to you, no!"

"Ha!!" Xia Ya smiled: "You want to exchange mushrooms for the food and supplies of the Zaku people? No need! Your tribe needs food, I will give it to you!"

food?!

Damn! My country's More County is an important grain-producing area in the northern part of the empire! There is nothing else, and the warehouse is full of grain!

Xia Ya was afraid that the goblins would still hesitate, and said viciously: "I will give you all the food and things that life needs! Well, how many goblins are there in your tribe?"

"Ten thousand." Tiangong reported a number that surprised Xia Ya.

Ten thousand?!!

With Xia's character of goblins in the red wilderness, even if he can reach a thousand people, it is considered a huge tribe! There are actually tens of thousands of goblins in this tribe attacked in heaven?!

Xia Ya calculated slightly. Goblins were short and their food was not consumed much. Moreover, among the ten thousand goblins, in addition to the young and strong, the elderly, weak, women and children also had less food and drink. By this calculation, on average, each goblin consumed one pound of food every day.

It only costs ten thousand kilograms of grain a day... Humph, it's only four or five tons?

"I'll give you three hundred tons! Even if your tribe members are idle all day long, don't hunt or work, eating, drinking and having fun every day is enough for you to spend two or three months." Xia Ya sneered: "You are such a big tribe, you can't rely on the transactions of Zakutu people to support you."

When Tiangong heard this, his eyes suddenly turned red.

It is not very good at counting how many of the three hundred tons is, but it is clear that the smartest elder in the tribe told himself the number of transactions that every time he traded with the Zakutu people, the food he obtained was only enough for the goblins of the whole clan to eat for a month. The biggest source of food for the goblins in daily life is still on their own. The transactions of the Zakutu people can only be considered an external piece.

As soon as Xia Ya opened her mouth, she doubled the value of the transaction. How can't such a business be done?!

But Xia Ya is not a fool. No one will believe the credit of the goblin in the wildfire field. These green-skinned guys are despicable and shameless. If they say anything, they will refuse to accept it if they turn around.

Xia Ya asked a few more questions, then smiled and said, "Think about the days, it's almost time for mushrooms to grow and mature recently. I'll take people and you back to your tribe first, collect all the mushrooms and transport them away! In the future, the people of Zhaku come to buy mushrooms, so let them come to me."

Tiangong was confused and felt that he had taken a big advantage, so he immediately agreed without hesitation.

Use these mushrooms and sell them to Zaku people for gold - well, maybe even the Magic Kiss Taro together. This transaction is worth doing!

Xia Ya was impatient. Since she had made up her mind, she would do it immediately.

But then there was a problem.

I heard that the output of those mushrooms is not small. Tiangong, the honest goblin, thought that he was too advantageous for this transaction, so he took the initiative to tell Xia Ya that there was a lot of gold stored in its tribe and gave it to Xia Ya together, even if it was to redeem Oaks.

How can Xia Ya not want the gold delivered to her door?

As for Oaks' will, it doesn't matter now.

Xia Ya is extremely worried about money now. If the little goblin servant refuses, the turtle will tie it up and give it to Tiangang!

"We are not good at moving things from the tribe in Tiangong. There are so many people who need to move so many mushrooms, not just one or two baskets. I heard that there are several cars that are folded together. Well, there are also gold. I heard that those iron trees are good, so we can get a few trees and transport them over to take a look. Maybe it will be useful."

After all, Philip was a man who had been the leader of the Warrior Order. His mind was the clearest about this kind of coordination. After calculating, he said: "There is not enough for the four of us. We must take people to the tribe of Tiangang. A convoy is a must."

"Call people!" Xia Ya smiled: "This is Wildfire Town. Although few humans dare to go to the territory of goblins, as long as the benefits are sufficient, there are many people who dare to take risks. I know this very well!"

"Also, it is also necessary to purchase a batch of food on site." Philip whispered: "The goblins are cunning and greedy by nature, timid and cowardly, and they are useless to trade. We just want to take away the mushrooms with this sentence. I am afraid the goblins will refuse. Even if this Tiangang is the leader of the tribe, but... I heard that it has been several months since it came out, and a lord is not in the tribe for several months, I am afraid that the tribe may not be its now."

When he said the last few words, Philip felt a pain in his skin. He was a good leader of a gang who was usurped by the throne and was driven out of power by the people below. He put his heart in his heart. No matter how prestige in the tribe was in the past, it had not returned for several months. Those cunning and greedy goblins might have re-elected a new tribe leader. Even if Tiangang is still the lord, the lord will break a transaction in the tribe with one sentence, and the goblins below may not agree.

This time I went back to trade, but it was not enough to go there for a few people. I had to bring a batch of grain with me. The goblins were willing to trade when they saw the physical items.

"It's decided. We bought food on the spot, and then gathered a convoy. In the Wildfire Town, there were more people who dared to take risks! Humph."

After the rest, the few people went out to take action immediately.

Philip and Salba went to buy food on the spot. Anyway, the food for the goblins doesn't need to be very good. Just the lowest-level coarse grains are fine. The price of this kind of grain can be about one pound of one copper plate. If you buy ten thousand pounds, it is only ten gold coins. (One hundred copper plates = one silver coin, ten silver coins = one gold coin)

Although the few people didn't bring much money, they still took two or three hundred gold coins after a while. Anyway, they didn't buy hundreds of tons at one time, but they just had enough food for a fleet of politics and transported it over. The goblins saw the physical objects, and coupled with the prestige of Tiangang, it should be fine.

What if the goblins regret it and want to be evil?

With the abilities of Shaya and others, would you be afraid of this?!

Xia Ya brought Duoduoluo and Tiangong, and the three of them went out and headed straight to the black street.

This is not the first time that Charia has come to Black Street. After a war, the Black Street seems to be more prosperous than before. After the war, a large number of business opportunities came, and various demands within the Byzantine Empire were suspended with the war. As the war ended, the domestic demand for all kinds of strange goods produced on the wildfire field broke out all at once, and the Black Street in Wildfire Town ushered in a peak of trade.

As soon as he arrived at the black street, he immediately felt that the street was crowded. Xia Ya relied on her height and strength to forcefully squeeze out the crowd, came to the door of a shop on the street, stood on the steps, and yelled.

He was full of energy. With this roar, the sound suddenly covered the noise around him. Then Dodoro, who was beside him, spread a prepared banner and raised it high with a stick.

Xia Ya's loud roar immediately attracted many passers-by on the black street. Many people saw that there was a lot of fun, and they all rushed over, almost blocking the road for a while.

"Recruiting people! Recruiting people! Those who are not afraid of death dare to fight desperately! Those who are rich and noble are seeking dangers! A man is a real man, and a bird is facing the sky. Those who have a genitals come and sign up. Follow me to take risks and fight for wealth and honor!!"

Xia Ya's roaring sound spread throughout the audience, and the people around him were suddenly disappointed: Xia Ya was wearing a short samurai robe, wearing an exquisite soft leather armor, and wearing a weapon, and obviously looked like a warrior. When she heard that she was recruiting people, she thought that some mercenary group was recruiting soldiers here - this kind of thing was really common in Wildfire Town, and it seemed that there was nothing lively to see.

Everyone was about to disperse, when Xia Ya's next words immediately made everyone excited again.

"With me a trip to the Red Wilderness, only recruiting warriors, men who dare to fight with swords, each of them has five Byzantine gold coins! Five gold coins!!"

boom!

There was an uproar in the crowd!

What is the concept of five gold coins? At the current price of grain, even if you eat meat every meal, five gold coins are enough for an ordinary family to eat and drink for a year! A mercenary warrior with rich experience in a mercenary group will earn almost that much.

And just go to the red wilderness and you can earn a year's income?!

Xia Ya shouted out in one voice, and after a moment, the news spread throughout the black street, and people rushed towards him.
To be continued...
