The two big dark eyes staring at Gao Jing were full of great expectation.
Crystal clear, innocent and innocent.
It made Gao Jing feel that if he failed to fulfill the little girl's promise, it would be a huge crime!
Fortunately, he came back with more than just candy this time.
And it weighs a full 2,000 pounds!
"Here, here!"
Gao Jing quickly pointed to the rattan basket on the right: "Here are the candies for you!"
Shan Guoer immediately looked in the direction of Gao Jing's finger, her eyes flashing with excitement.
"Wow!"
She reached out and grabbed a 10-pound piece of peanut candy, her eyebrows beaming with joy.
Can’t wait to stuff it into my mouth!
"etc!"
Gao Jing quickly stopped him and said, "I need to, um, peel off the outside first before eating."
There is no word "plastic" in Dahuang.
Shan Guoer blinked and tried to tear off the plastic wrap wrapping the peanut candy with his fingers.
It was torn off with a "tsk!"
Looking at the peanut candy in her hand, the little girl ate it in no hurry.
She put the candy under her nose and sniffed it, then stretched out her little tongue and licked it.
My eyes suddenly lit up!
Click!
The next moment, 5 pounds of the 10 pounds of peanut candy disappeared into her mouth.
Click! Click!
Tasting the crispy peanut candy, the little girl's face suddenly bloomed with a smile brighter than spring.
This fragrant and sweet taste was something she had never tasted in her life.
Fill your mouth, stay between your teeth, let your taste buds explode and penetrate deep into your soul!
So delicious!!
The chocolate Gao Jing gave her before made her see a beautiful paradise.
Then the peanut candy now takes her directly into heaven.
I am so happy that I can almost fly.
The sincere joy and happiness shown by Shan Guoer at this moment also made Gao Jing feel very happy.
Very satisfied.
Click! Click! Click!
Immediately afterwards, the remaining half piece of peanut candy was stuffed into the mouth by Shan Guoer.
While chewing, she quickly grabbed a second piece.
Tear off the film first, then eat it, you just can’t stop!
"Shan Guo'er, let's eat it when we get home."
Seeing that the situation was not good, Gao Jing quickly said: "I also brought salt back to your grandfather."
According to the way she eats, 2,000 pounds of peanut candy won't last long at all.
Gao Jing planned to stay in the mountain village for a while this time.
In case the little girl gets addicted to it and runs out of it, let him get another batch.
That’s trouble!
What if she eats too much peanut candy and gets cavities?
By the way, will little giant girls get cavities?
Gao Jing really wanted to log in to Bihu, which has a per capita education level of 985, immediately to ask questions.
It’s quite a rush to wait online!
"Um."
Shan Guo'er was quite sensible and said vaguely: "Wo takes Ni to find Ye Ye."
She stuffed the peanut candy in her hand into her mouth randomly, then stretched out her palm to Gao Jing: "Here."
Gao Jing was already very familiar with the little girl's movements.
He immediately jumped into Shan Guoer's palm.
The little girl carried Gao Jing to the basket hanging behind her, and then grabbed the rattan basket containing the goods.
The two rattan baskets are connected by thick and long rattan roots, like poles.
She easily lifted it onto her shoulders and jumped off the back of the giant rhinoceros beast.
The landing posture is stable enough to score 10 points!
Gao Jing's eyes almost bulged out of his sockets.
You must know that the two rattan baskets contain eighty or ninety tons of items!
Gao Jing really couldn't imagine how much power was contained in the little girl's "small" body!
"Let's go!"
Jumping off the beast of burden, Shan Guoer ran towards the village!
Giant rhinoceros beast: Ang???
Woof!
At this moment, a little yellow dog ran out of the gate.
I just happened to pass by Shan Guoer.
Woof! Woof!
The little yellow dog quickly changed direction and wanted to catch up with his little master.
As a result, I accidentally tripped over some grass and vines on the ground, and fell down on the spot!
Woof!
It was anxious and panicked, and it was so aggrieved that it burst into tears.
"Stupid dog!"
Shan Guoer stopped and waited for the little yellow dog to catch up with him.
Grab it and stuff it into the basket.
Gao Jing carrying a basket: "..."
The next moment, the little yellow dog's wet tongue licked it.
Gao Jing's face was full of saliva: "!!!"
Weak, forced, helpless.
"grandfather!"
Shan Guoer quickly rushed up the mountain road and ran inside along the long stone steps.
"Gao Jing is here, he brought salt back!"
The little girl's clear voice echoed in the valley, attracting many people in the village to look around.
Shan Guoer ran to the wooden house in one breath.
Kicked open the door.
In the wooden house, the old wizard was giving lessons to a group of naughty children in the village.
The little girl suddenly broke in and shocked everyone.
"grandfather!"
Shan Guoer didn't care, and shouted to the old wizard in a hurry: "Gao Jing is back!"
"I heard it."
The old wizard put down the charcoal in his hand and showed a kind smile.
Gao Jing stepped on the edge of the basket on his back and jumped onto the wooden table in front of him.
He bowed respectfully to the old wizard: "Hello, Chief Wizard, I'm back."
"Thanks for your hard work."
The old wizard bowed slightly and returned the greeting.
He said to those curious naughty children: "You go back first and continue studying tomorrow."
The little ones actually wanted to stay and watch the fun.
But they did not dare to disobey the old wizard's words, so they reluctantly left the wooden house.
While walking, I turned back.
Shan Guoer secretly made faces at these guys.
Then he closed the door.
She moved the goods in the rattan basket to the table: "Grandpa, Gao Jing brought me candy cubes, which are very good and delicious."
"You have a piece too!"
Shan Guo'er skillfully peeled off a piece of peanut candy and handed it to her grandfather as if it were a treasure.
"You can eat it."
The old wizard touched her head and said lovingly: "Grandpa doesn't eat."
Of course he could see that the little girl liked this kind of candy very much.
How could he eat her?
Gao Jing smiled and said: "Shan Guo'er, can you bring me a jar?"
The old wizard nodded to his granddaughter.
"good."
Shan Guoer agreed crisply.
She stuffed the peeled peanut candy into her mouth, and one of her cheeks immediately puffed up like a squirrel.
He quickly found an empty clay pot for Gao Jing.
The mountain tribes were quite primitive, and the tools used daily by the giants were mainly stone tools, bone tools and wooden tools.
But they also knew how to use clay to make pottery.
Cook food.
Gao Jing pulled out the machete he carried with him and cut open the seal of the salt bag.
He asked Shan Guoer to help him pour the coarse salt in the bag into the jar.
The old wizard looked horrified and moved.
The old giant stretched out his skinny index finger, dipped some salt into the jar, and tasted it.
He was stunned.
While Gao Jing lived in the mountain village, he studied Dahuang literature with the old wizard every day.
He has never seen the other party be so out of sorts!
He couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive: "Witch Leader, is there any problem?"
"No."
The old wizard came to his senses and said with a wry smile: "No problem, it's this salt, it's really good!"
“It’s really great…”
His old face showed a look of reminiscence: "I have never eaten such good salt in the Capital of Kings."
Gao Jing suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as there are no problems.
He was glad that he bought coarse salt instead of refined salt, otherwise he would not know what kind of expression the other party would have.
But Gao Jing also had a question in his mind.
Didn't the wizards with extraordinary powers develop a method of boiling refined salt?
This isn't difficult, right?
But now was not the time to think about the problem, he continued to unpack the salt.
As a result, all the salt bags were taken out, but the clay pot that Shan Guoer found was not filled!
Gao Jing was a little doubtful about life.
80 tons, a total of 80,000 kilograms, cost him nearly 200,000 oceans of edible coarse salt.
Not enough to fill a jar!
The mountain tribe has more than 700 people.
No matter how good the quality of salt is, what's the use of it?
Totally not enough to eat!
He said apologetically: "Witch Leader, I'm sorry, I can only bring back so much..."
It is true that the copper anchor storage space capacity is limited.
"No no no!"
The old wizard immediately waved his hand to interrupt Gao Jing's apology: "Your Excellency Gao Jing, you are too polite!"
Gao Jing was stunned.
The leader of the mountain tribe added the word "Your Excellency" to his title.
This word is usually only used to express respect for "scholar" in Dahuang text.
Scholars refer to the nobles and strong men in the wilderness human race.
Gao Jing didn't expect that these coarse salts would actually improve his status in the other party's mind so much!
He quickly said: "I don't dare to take it seriously."
The old wizard shook his head.
The old giant reached out and took out a gray-black stone from his pocket and placed it next to the clay pot: "Do you know what price we have to pay to get a salt stone?"
Of course Gao Jing remembered this bitter and astringent thing.
He also shook his head.
The old wizard raised a finger and sighed: "A piece of animal skin, a piece of Megalodon skin!"
Gao Jing has never seen a giant toothed tiger.
However, it can be seen from the old wizard's expression that it is not easy to obtain a giant-toothed tiger skin.
"The wood I gave you is worthless."
The old wizard continued: "By hunting a giant toothed tiger, we may lose a brave warrior."
Gao Jing completely understood what he wanted to express.
In fact, this is the problem of huge physical differences between the two worlds.
How did the other party know that the coarse salt Gao Jing brought was only worth a piece of wood!
"What you brought to our tribe is hope."
The old wizard said meaningfully: "Without salt, our warriors will gradually lose their strength and become weak, and our tribe will also perish."
"So now, do you still feel that you have very little salt?"
Gao Jing was speechless.
He admired the old giant's frankness and openness very much.
In fact, the other party didn't need to tell him this at all.
But the old wizard made it clear.
This is trust!
After thinking for a while, Gao Jing asked: "Master Wu, so you got your salt stone from trading with others?"
"Yes."
The old wizard nodded: "Every ninety days or so, a caravan will come to our village."
Black-hearted businessman!
Gao Jing understood: "So that's it."
Originally, Gao Jing wanted to say that you don't have to deal with these black-hearted guys anymore.
I'll keep it with you for a long time!
But think about it, if you can't find a way to recharge the copper anchor, then such a promise will be completely useless.
So as soon as the words came to my mouth, I swallowed them back hard.
"Right."
He said: "I also brought you a gift."
The old wizard asked with great interest: "What gift?"
Gao Jing used a machete to cut open a sack.
The yellow-brown dried leaves stuffed inside the bag were immediately exposed: "Tobacco leaves!"
The old wizard usually likes to smoke dry cigarettes.
There is a pipe hidden in the head of his wooden stick, and he can take it out and take a few puffs when he has something to do.
But the tobacco leaves used by Gao Jing smelled very inferior.
Therefore, during a large-scale purchase in the main world, Gao Jing specially bought hundreds of kilograms of tobacco leaves for the old wizard.
It is not easy to buy tobacco leaves. Gao Jing found a way to buy them.
The reason why he only bought a few hundred kilograms was because he was worried that the tobacco leaves in the main world might not suit his taste.
If the old wizard doesn't like it, it will be wasted.
"Huh?"
The old wizard was a little surprised.
He pulled out his pipe, reached out and pinched a ball of tobacco leaves and stuffed it into the bowl.
The tobacco leaves Gao Jing brought were intact, but to the giant, they were not much different from cut tobacco.
He lit the fire and took two puffs.
The cloudy old eyes suddenly lit up.
That kind of unexpected surprise is at least 80% similar to Shan Guoer who just ate peanut sesame candy!
“Good smoke!”
The old wizard couldn't help but said: "Thank you, I like this gift very much."
Gao Jing smiled and said, "As long as you like it."
I finally made the right purchase.
"Shan Guo'er..."
The old wizard took a few puffs of cigarette happily before reluctantly putting down his pipe: "Go tell Shantai and ask him to light a bonfire at night, and we will entertain our friends!"
"Hmm."
Shan Guoer, who was next to him, covered his mouth and tried hard to swallow the peanut candy in his mouth.
But her cheeks were bulging like a chipmunk stuffed with chestnuts.
How can you escape from the eyes of others!
When Gao Jing was talking to the old wizard just now, the little girl ate countless pieces of sesame candy.
The old wizard didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He reached out and rubbed his granddaughter's hair: "Save some food. It's not easy for Mr. Gao Jing to bring these things back. After eating, they will be gone."
Shan Guoer nodded with a blushing face, and ran out of the wooden house with the little yellow dog.
The old wizard smiled.
After taking two more puffs of cigarette, he asked solemnly: "Your Excellency Gao Jing, how can I thank you?"
Gao Jing's heart skipped a beat.
After carefully reading "The Great Desolation", Gao Jing quietly changed his goals of action in the big world.
Making money took a back seat.
He has a higher pursuit!
Now that this new goal suddenly has the possibility of being achieved immediately, how can we not be excited?
But Gao Jing quickly calmed down: "Witch Leader, you don't need to thank me, because we are dealing fairly."
"And if it hadn't been for the people in the tribe who saved me, I might have died in the wilderness."
"So it's me who should be grateful!"
The old wizard chuckled.
He tapped the clay pot with coarse salt on the table with his pipe, and said meaningfully: "Now..."
"We're even."——
Two chapters in one.
Today is a national memorial day to pay tribute to the heroes and may the deceased rest in peace!
