Colorful flags are a symbol of the orc tribe. Any orc tribe, whether large or small, will hang colorful flags in their tribe.
To the orcs, the colorful flags mean stability, good fortune, and good luck, because the colorful flags look like rainbows to the orcs, and rainbows only appear after rain. For the orcs, rain is very important.
, when it rains, the river will become bigger, and they will have more water available. When it rains, the grass on the pasture will grow more lush, so that their monsters will grow fatter and the monsters will grow better.
, they have more property, so all orc tribes will hang small colorful flags.
On the grassland, as long as you see the colorful flags, you will know that you have arrived near the orc tribe. This is common sense to all people who come to the grassland. Zhao Hai already knew it from the miscellaneous notes he had read.
Zhao Hai let out a long breath and quickly turned to Laura and the others who were sitting in the car chatting and said: "I saw the colorful flags."
Of course Laura understood what Zhao Hai meant. She immediately got out of the car and followed Zhao Hai's gaze, and sure enough, a colorful flag appeared in her sight.
Laura exhaled and said: "Finally we saw the orc tribe. It's great. We may be able to drink milk wine and eat roasted sheep tonight."
Zhao Hai chuckled. To be honest, after walking for a day on the endless prairie that seemed to have no human habitation at all, suddenly seeing the colorful flag really shocked people.
It's like people living in darkness suddenly see a glimmer of light.
After a while, Zhao Hai and the others saw a group of tents. These tents were very spacious. On the top of one of the tents, there was a big flag with a picture of a cute little pig on it.
Zhao Hai blinked and made sure he saw it correctly. The flag was indeed a cute little pig. Zhao Hai turned to look at Laura in confusion and said, "Laura, what kind of tribe is this?"
Laura also saw the pig flag on the tent, and couldn't help but smile slightly: "Do you see the pig on the flag? Is the pig's belly particularly big? This is a branch of the orc pig clan, big
The belly pig tribe, this kind of pig tribe is not tall, only about two meters at most. They are small among the orcs, but they have a big belly. Their big belly is exposed all year round, but don’t underestimate their big belly.
, their big bellies are the toughest part of their bodies. This tribe is just a nation. Their fighting power is not very strong, but they have a trick. This trick is to drink water, and then use their big bellies to put the food in their stomachs.
The water they sprayed out formed water arrows that hurt people. The water they sprayed out could generally spray thirty meters away, and its power was equivalent to the powerful arrows of the human race. It was with this special ability that they did not become slaves.
clan.”
Zhao Haidao was very curious. He really felt that the world was so vast and full of wonders. It was so interesting that there was such a race.
Zhao Hai turned to Laura and said, "What is the character of this race of people? They won't suddenly turn into bandits, right?"
Laura shook her head and said with a smile: "No, their character is very docile. They are a branch of the Xiangzhu tribe. As long as you don't bully them, they will not steal things. They are also very hospitable.
The ethnic group mainly makes a living by herding argali sheep.”
Zhao Hai knew that the argali was a first-level monster, the most commonly raised monster in the orc grasslands. Its skin could be used to make clothes, its wool could be used to make blankets, its meat could be eaten, and its horns could be made into weapons. It could be said that the orcs
Life cannot be separated from the argali.
In places where humans live, it is rare to see people raising argali, because argali are only adapted to life here on the grassland and will get sick when they go to the human race. Therefore, in the eyes of the orcs, argali are the greatest influence that the beast god has on them.
Gift.
Zhao Hai nodded and said: "That's good, let's rest here today. If they need it, we can buy these grains to them. By the way, how are we going to trade with the orcs?"
Laura smiled and said: "This is not difficult. As long as we bring the food over, they will actively come to us to trade. However, they usually use the magic beasts in their hands to trade, and will not directly use gold and silver to trade.
Yes, only some big war clans will directly trade gold and silver, so we still need to turn the Warcraft they trade to us into money."
Zhao Haidao: "How much bamboo rice do you need to exchange for an argali sheep?"
Laura smiled slightly and said: “One thousand catties.”
"One thousand catties? Are you kidding?" Zhao Hai said in surprise. The price Laura said really surprised him.
The reason why Zhao Hai was so surprised was because of the size of the argali. An adult argali can grow to about 1.5 meters and weigh up to 400 kilograms. It is not a problem to carry an adult, and one argali can be carried at a time.
It can produce one hundred kilograms of wool. If an argali is transported back to the Principality of Versailles, even if it is not raised but just killed and bought, the price of an argali is at least fifteen gold coins, and
To be honest, if you can buy one thousand kilograms of bamboo rice for one gold coin, it’s not bad. Fifteen times the profit, this seems too high, right?
Laura knew what Zhao Hai was surprised about. She smiled slightly and said: "This sounds like it is very high, but it is actually not as high as you think. You must know that everything transported to the orc grassland is smuggled, and smuggled
In the process, it is necessary to organize the city defense troops and open up all the joints. This is a big expense, and it may be robbed here in the grassland, so if we really count, one thousand kilograms of bamboo rice will be transported to the orc grassland.
The cost has already reached about three gold coins. After transporting the argali back, this cost will continue to increase. By the time it reaches the mainland, the cost price of an argali is seven to eight gold coins, among which there are also
Excluding being robbed, you must know that anyone who comes to do business here in the orc grassland, except those who cooperate with the war clan, will almost always be robbed. If calculated ten times, an ordinary businessman will be robbed three to four times out of ten.
Rob, if you calculate it this way, they can earn at most four to five gold coins for the last argali, which is already pretty good."
Zhao Hai nodded, he could understand this. If the cost is high, the price will naturally go up. If the cost is too low, no one will do this business. In the end, the biggest loser will not be the human race.
It's the orcs. Otherwise, the orcs will cross the border again.
Zhao Hai turned to look at Laura and said: "Then what price do you think we should use to trade with them?"
Laura smiled slightly and said: “An argali weighs two thousand pounds.”
Zhao Hai nodded. He did not have such high costs as those merchants. Bamboo rice was produced in space, and he could also receive argali sheep in space and put them in the warehouse without any management. There was almost no extra cost.
The cost, two thousand kilograms of an argali sheep, is almost his net income, and two thousand kilograms of an argali sheep will not have a big impact on the price of food in the entire orc grassland. The price is still very reasonable.
Ni'er and Meg stood behind the two of them, listening to these words quietly. Meg didn't feel anything at all. For her, as long as she took good care of Zhao Hai, these business matters had always been
Zhao Hai and others took the initiative to solve the problem, so she didn't feel jealous at all.
Although in the eyes of outsiders, she and Laura are love rivals, in Meg's view, this is not the case at all. She doesn't want to argue with Laura, she just hopes to be content with being by Zhao Hai's side all the time.
Laura is indeed very talented and very strong in business, which she cannot compare to.
Meg has booked a position for herself early, so she will not be jealous of Laura. On the contrary, the more capable Laura is, the happier she will be, because the more capable Laura is, the more capable the Buda family will be.
Getting stronger and stronger, which is exactly what Meg wants to see.
While walking and chatting, they soon arrived at the tent, and the people in the tent also noticed them. Immediately, more than twenty figures rushed towards them, followed by some dogs.
When those people came closer, Zhao Hai discovered that these more than 20 people were all cavalry, but what made Zhao Hai want to laugh was that their mounts were all pigs.
Yes, it was a pig, a pig with a body nearly two meters long, a weight of over a thousand kilograms, and two long tusks. The knight riding on the pig immediately reminded Zhao Hai of a person, Zhu Bajie.
It's so similar, just like some Zhu Bajie wearing prairie clothes. These people all wear fur hats on their heads and fur coats on their bodies, but there is a big pig's head on the thick neck, and the snow-white belly is exposed.
A layer of black hair can still be seen on the belly. As long as they put on monk robes and take a palladium, they are like Zhu Bajie, and they don't even need to put on makeup.
Zhao Hai wanted to laugh, but felt that it was too impolite, and it would not be beautiful if he laughed at the orcs and caused a conflict, so he held back and slowly calmed down his emotions.
Next to the pot-bellied pig-headed knights, there were several dogs. These dogs were very special. Each one was about one meter tall. The hair on their body was very long, but they ran very fast and did not bark randomly. Two dogs
The pointed fangs are also exposed outside the lips, making it look like someone who is not easy to mess with.
Zhao Hai and the others immediately stopped, without warning, and put on a friendly look. Sure enough, those pig knights also slowed down. Only then did Zhao Hai realize that these pot-bellied pig-headed knights all had weapons in their hands.
The weapons can be described as simple, just a big sheep head with a wooden handle. Some of them are not wooden handles, but handles made of animal bones.
However, Zhao Hai does not dare to underestimate this kind of weapon. These sheep heads used as weapons are very big and heavy at first glance. If they are hit by this thing, the bones and tendons will definitely be broken.
At this time, the pot-bellied pig people had arrived about fifty meters in front of them. Both sides stopped, but the dogs raised by the pot-bellied pig people had already come around and surrounded Zhao Hai and the others on both sides.
, everyone stared at Zhao Hai and the others, warning sounds uttered in their throats.
