The knights could go to rest, but Red-maned Yanglie and Xiaobai were directly invited to Sanbanghanon's reception tent. He and Bonehoof Changcao had waited too long and were already impatient.
, I couldn’t wait to see the red-maned Yanglie.
It’s still the three-chapter table, still full of all kinds of food, but this time there are fewer people. Only Sanbang Hanong, Bone Hoof Changcao, Red-maned Yanglie and Xiaobai, the caravan envoys have already set off to return to their lives.
Sorry, I couldn't get the red-maned Yang Lie to return.
The four people sat down respectively as guest and host, and there was some silence for a while.
Sanbang Hanon looked at the grass with the bone hoof, and then at the red-maned Yanglie, rubbed his hands and asked: "Red-maned Godot, have you brought your bow and arrows?"
"Bring it." Since someone spoke, it was easy to handle. Red-maned Yanglie nodded and said, "According to the agreed quantity."
After saying that, Red Mane Yang Lie turned to Bone Hoof and asked, "When will you deliver my trophies?"
"Next spring." Bone Hoof Changcao said absently, still thinking about how to share bows and arrows with Sampong Hanon.
Hearing Bonehoof's words, Red Mane Yang Lie nodded, this kid didn't trick him.
There are also many unspoken rules in the grassland. For example, regarding the issue of loot, there must be no problem in spring and summer, but the problem lies in autumn and winter.
Trophies generally include slaves and livestock. These people and animals are all alive. After being transported to another tribe a long distance, their physical fitness will definitely decline.
After it is transported to the tribe, they don't care about it. The tribe has to take over it. As for whether these people and animals live or die afterwards, it has nothing to do with them.
Then the problem comes, winter is about to start, and suddenly there are a large number of people who want to eat, and they have to take care of them, and maybe even take care of their clothes, which will form a huge burden on the tribe.
At this time, the tribe has to make a choice, whether to keep these people or let them fend for themselves.
If you stay, they will definitely have to take care of it. It will consume the winter supplies stored by the tribe, and they may not be able to save it. After all, the severe winter is a huge challenge for every tribe. Not to mention the slaves, even the tribe itself may not be able to survive.
If they were left to fend for themselves, the gains would outweigh the losses. It would be hard for Baal to win the battle, but in the end no benefits would be gained. What are you trying to do?
If the Bone Hoof Horse Tribe has the Red Mane Yang Lie in their heart, then they can send the spoils to the Red Mane Horse Tribe after winter, and they may be able to overwhelm this small tribe.
It can be seen from the mutual market that the two sides are now considered to be unreliable allies, so Bone Hoof and Grass are kind in doing things. They set the handover time of the spoils in spring, giving Red Mane Yanglie time to prepare, so that he can accept the spoils more calmly.
After the arrival of spring, everything revives and there will be more prey. The slaves and livestock brought here are more likely to survive and become the property of the tribe.
"Red-maned Godot, how do you plan to carry out this mutual trade?" Sanbanghanon was still thinking when he saw the grass growing on his bones, and asked again.
Hongmane Yanglie turned around and discussed with Xiaobai in a low voice. There were two options for the mutual market. One was free trade, which meant that Hongmane Yanglie bought and sold by himself. Anyone could buy it. There were no restrictions. He just borrowed the horse from the Three Kingdoms.
The site practice stall.
The other one is batch trading, which is directly traded with Sanbang Hanun and Bone Hoof Changcao. It is a mutual trade between tribes.
After discussing in a low voice, the red-maned Yang Lie looked up at Sanbang Hanon and said: "Let's trade directly. Winter is coming and there is not enough time."
After receiving the answer, Sanbang Hanon breathed a sigh of relief, touched his beard with his hand and said: "This is good, it is convenient for everyone. Grass grows on bones and hooves. What do you think, how many bows and arrows do you plan to need?"
"I want to know the value of bows and arrows," Bonehoof Changcao said.
"Let's calculate it based on dried meat. A set of bows and arrows will cost one thousand dried meat." Hongzong Yanglie discussed the price with Xiaobai and finally settled on this price. As long as they agree, it can be said that they will make a lot of money. After all,
The materials they used to make bows and arrows were useless animal bones and sinews on the grassland, and things that could be easily exchanged for dried meat.
Bone Hoof Changcao nodded, understanding clearly, and then said to Sanbang Hanon: "On behalf of the Bone Hoof Horse Department, I will collect two hundred sets of bows and arrows."
He was giving face to Sanbang Hanon, and he didn't dare to ask for too much. After all, he wanted to trade with Sanbang Horse Department in the first place. He was stepping in, so he still had to give him some face.
In addition, Bone Hoof and Grass also have their own little ideas. Bows and arrows can be copied when they are in hand, and they do not necessarily have to be obtained through mutual trade.
The Red Mane Fierce Horse Tribe is a small tribe. As far as he knows, this tribe doesn't even have any craftsmen. A tribe without craftsmen can make bows and arrows. There is no reason why the Bone Hoof Horse Tribe with craftsmen can't make them.
After getting such a batch of bows and arrows, you can just bring them back to the tribe and find a craftsman to imitate them. Who will need the Red Mane Horse Department then?
"Hahaha, that's good, our Sanbang Horse Department has accepted the remaining three hundred sets of bows and arrows." Sanbang Hanon laughed and decided directly. He had the same idea as Bone Hoof and Grass, and both wanted to imitate it.
Red-maned Yanglie and Xiaobai looked at each other, with the corners of their mouths slightly raised, revealing a hidden smile.
If Xiaobai had not told Hongmane Yanglie about the complexity of bows and arrows before, Hongmane Yanglie would have felt that this transaction was a huge loss, but when he knew the various explanations about bows and arrows, he felt nothing at all.
On the contrary, I feel I have earned something.
Five hundred sets of bows and arrows, and each set of bows and arrows has a thousand dried meats. This is half a million dried meats, which is not a small amount. It is more than what they can make by sweeping the wilderness.
"As we said before, we need to exchange the dried meat for other useful things." Xiaobai reminded.
"This is natural." Sanbang Hanon nodded: "Then we can pay with crystal stones, animal bones and other items."
"We don't have crystals, we can use other materials to pay for it." Bonehoof Changcao also followed up and said.
The credibility of people from other worlds is quite good. When trading with each other, you generally don’t have to worry about being cheated. This is the most basic trust between people.
"Well, let's trade as soon as possible." Hongmane Yanglie said.
After the brief meeting, the three parties immediately dispersed and went back to prepare.
Early the next morning, trading began.
As Xiaobai expected, the exchange items prepared by Sanbang Hanon were mainly crystal stones and animal bones. The quantity was very large, and the other exchange items were very few. After all, the crystal stones and animal bones were of little value to the Sanbang Horse Department.
It's not very high, and it's not very useful. It's perfect for trading bows and arrows.
Bonehoof Grass prepares ores, wood and other materials, which are relatively valuable on the grassland.
The Bone Hoofs hope to trade useless things like animal bones, but their Bone Hoof horses are far away, and it is inconvenient to transport them with so many burdens, so they have to exchange them with valuables.
