Chapter 195: Who is taking advantage?

    Qi Yuan stayed outside the city for two days, and on the third day, he was finally allowed to enter the market, and Lan Dier accompanied him.

    Qi Yuan hasn't seen any good things in the market yet, and he is completely attracted by the beautiful and glamorous The Mer-people.

     He had heard of The Mer-people, but he had never seen one. He always thought that they lived in the sea, and never expected to see so many The Mer-people in the wild.

    If the dwarf and The Mer-people can trade here...

    Of course, he just thinks about it and doesn't dare to make a deal. He is not like his idiot brother who is so greedy, he doesn't care if he sees good things, The Mer-people here and dwarfs were obviously friendly to this tribe, not slaves, and The Mer-people's fighting strength...just look at the Mer-men strong bodies and you will know that their fighting strength will not be low.

    If he was greedy he can still think of stealing a Little Mer-child, but Jiu Yuan warriors have been following him, and everyone outside is staring at him. Jiu Yuan warriors are in the market and in the river the Mer-warriors are patrolling back and forth, it's not easy to steal a Little Mer-child, even if he can successfully steal one, it takes more than ten days to get to the river from here, and with no water on the way the Mer-child will die. What will he do then?

    Qi Yuan can only temporarily let go of greed and focus on the goods in the market. In addition to The Mer-people and the dwarfs, there are also many items he has never seen before. After seeing the bow and arrow traded in the market, he estimated that the fighting strength of Jiu Yuan, Dwarf and The Mer-people would increase several times.

    Qi Yuan strolled all the way and finally strolled to the south. There, he saw two large turtle shells. Yes, only the shells, the turtles inside have already been eaten by some of the two murderers.

    Wu Chen has already heard about strangers coming from afar, and Qi Yuan has attracted a lot of attention along the way.

    Seeing that Qi Yuan was coming to him, Wu Chen took the fire ignition tool on the stall.

     His fire-bottle is selling very well. The whole market this item is only owned by his family. The dwarfs almost bought everything. But this thing is simple to work. Just look at it and you can make it with a little ease. This time he can rely on this. In exchange for something, it will not be easy the next time.

    However, he is not afraid of learning how to turn the fire, but... well, he is not willing to let people outside Jiu Yuan and Jiu Yuan friendly tribe learn how to

    When Shi Fu taught them a few small fire ignition tools, he once said that fire-bottle does not look good on the eye, but it is one of the important tools to promote social development. Because it is simple to make and easy to carry, it is a must-have for the home. In the wild, starting a fire is always a big problem. It takes time and effort. With the fire ignition tool, you can shorten this process greatly, and naturally increase the pace of human expansion.

    Wu Chen didn't quite understand Yan Mo's words at first, but after he went out to hunt with the hunting team, he realized the benefits of the fire ignition tool.

    In fact, after having the ability to control the fire, the fire ignition tool is not very useful to him.

    But how many warrior have the fire abilities? He and Ye Xing are the only ones, it is impossible for them to follow everyone at all times, they are all teamed up when it’s time to go hunting.

    In the team that did not have a warrior with fire manipulation abilities, when the warriors took out the hard work of flint stones and hit sparks again, he walked over and took out the fire ignition tool, he pulled out the plug, took the ignition nearby, and only blew a fire. Just a few seconds and there was a fire burning, it was easy to for the warriors like Zheng into think that this is his ability.

     He gave the two fire ignition tools to Zheng and Lie and told them that they only need to change the smoldering stuffed inside before they are burned out and they can continue to use it. The two leaders were very happy and patted his shoulders and praise him for his ability.

    At that time, Lie thought of what he thought. He said: "It really is him, then he has been watching him laughing, making him inexplicable."

    Having said that, Wu Chen is not sure if there is any fire warrior in the Moer Gan tribe. Maybe someone who has better ignition items, but if not?

    Shi Fu also said: Science and technology are the primary productive forces, and tribes that rely on selling raw materials are stupid or purely helpless. To be stronger than others, the best technology must be in your own hands. Even if you need to exchange, you can only exchange outdated, backward technology that the tribe has no need for.

    Wu Chen doesn't understand what science is. He finally understands Yan Mo's words: first, strengthen yourself, and then consider others. If you have good things, you must first hide them.

    Ye Xing, who was weaving the sandals, saw Wu Chen's action to Qi Yuan, and Wu Chen eyes popped and he smashed the half of the sandals to the cushion under the buttocks, and then went to Wu Chen.

 “Chen, I have an idea."                                                                             

In the evening, Yan Mo took back a 7th Rank water attribute yuan crystal, and told Yuan Zhan how to absorb crystal stone energy.

    “You traded with Yu Wu?” Yuan Zhan took over the water yuan crystal. “What conditions did you promise him?”

    “Help The Mer-people and treat infertility and early abortion.” Yan Mo washed his face and suddenly smiled. "Lan Dier said that Moer Gan wants to use slaves to exchange magical fire ignition tools with us."

    “Well?"

    “Wu Chen and Ye Xing teamed up, and the two boys do expect to have the potential to become profiteer.” Yan Mo laughed and said the process.

    According to Lan Dier, after talking with Qi Yuan, Wu Chen found that Moer Gan was still using a flint stone to make a fire, and he smiled. Then Ye Xing jumped out and grabbed his fire to show off, and looked mysteriously. Then he looked to Qi Yuan and told him that this is the magic fire ignition tool made by Priest.

    Needless to say, Qi Yuan was naturally drawn by curiosity. After that, Ye Xing demonstrated it.

    When Qi Yuan saw Ye Xing blowing at the small patch of dry grass, the fire was ignited and he was very interested. But Wu Chen grabbed the fire and it died. He didn't take the fire to Qi Yuan. Qi Yuan wanted to change with yuan crystal coins, and later he was willing to change with a female slave.

    Yuan Zhan expressed satisfaction with the two small disciples. "Don't change slaves, you have to change other things."

    “I think so too. Their linens were done well. Their technology, defense and textile machines that handle flax should be better than ours. Ok, I am going to exchange their technology with fire. I will take a few tests to improve it. Maybe we can weave a better cloth. After we have more cotton, we have a cotton cloth to wear."

    “Well. Wait. At the end of the market, I will to see the Moer Gan people and let Wu Chen and Ye Xing go with me.”

    Yan Mo knows that Yuan Zhan wants to exercise two small disciples and naturally does not disagree. At the age of eleven or twelve, the two disciples are almost already available as Da Ren at this time.

    On the second day after the market ended, Yuan Zhan appeared again in front of the Moer Gan.

    Yuan Zhan did not give Qi Yuan the opportunity to enter Jiu Yuan, nor did he see how he moved. He suddenly had a wide stone chair behind him.

    Qi Yuan and others quickly saluted him.

    Moer Gan stood opposite, Jiu Yuan warriors stood on both sides of Yuan Zhan, and Yuan Zhan directly let Wu Chen go forward and talk to Qi Yuan.

    Qi Yuan has already heard that the two children who are coming today are both Priest's disciples, he could not dare to sneer, nor think they are easy to handle because they are young, but only 1st Rank warriors were scornful to them - these two children are all God blood warriors!

    The first item of the transaction was to exchange 800 healthy women who could have children and 500 children under the age of 10 with better-quality coarse red salt.

    Wu Chen still wants more, but Qi Yuan doesn't know if he wants to keep Jiu Yuan's appetite. It's really difficult. He can't help but talk about sending so many trained slaves. In winter, the death rate is high. These numbers were already his. The pole that can be done.

    Yuan Zhan frowned. "I want a slave that can work from the age of 8 to 12. What do you give me under the age of 10 for? These little slaves get back and if I cook them, I think they have less meat."

    Qi Yuan smiled respectfully. "Da Ren, boys over the age of 8 can be trained into warriors. Girls over the age of 10 can be used for mating. If they are treated as young children, we will suffer, and we can treat them as adults in trade, other tribes were not willing, for this reason, slaves of this age, we generally do not trade, and that is the same for The Three Cities. But because of your red salt, I dare to boldly mention 8 years old, but if this is not the case. I have already taken a big risk of offending this tribe.”

    “The proportion of 8 to 10years old is increased by 30%, and men and women are not.”

    “This...” The two sides have been arguing for the final number and the ratio is set.

    The second is to exchange textile technology and tools with magical fires.

    Yan Mo had asked the two to talk to Qi Yuan carefully. Moer Gan already had a pedal spinning machine. The description of the textile machine sounded similar to that produced by Jiu Yuan. It doesn't matter if you change it, but when dealing with Flax fiber. They will add some bone powder and herbs, which is worth learning from Jiu Yuan.

    Yan Mo also asked about the history of textiles. Moer Gan people don't know much about it. They only said that textile machines were made from long ago, and their textile technology was also exchanged from The Three Cities.

    Qi Yuan saw that they wanted to exchange textile machines, and they would not let go at the beginning.

    Until Ye Xing said very disdainfully: "Look at the linen on us. We have spinning wheels and weaving machines. If it is not because of winter, we will want nothing to do with a little textile, but Priest Da Ren is kind, he doesn't want us to feel cold in the big winter, we still go into forest logging, otherwise we won’t exchange spinning and weaving machines with you.”

    Ye Xing stared blankly he considered himself as the “Principal Disciple” and immediately ordered the warriors to return the textile machine to the city.

    Qi Yuan saw that Jiu Yuan really had a textile machine, and it seemed that those were not much different from them, and it was not good to take a high ground again.

    Yuan Zhan casually praised Ye Xing.

    Just as they discussed how many fire ignition tool exchanges and how many spinning machines and textile machines were used, Wu Chen was dissatisfied with Yuan Zhan’s praise of Ye Xing, and suddenly he said with a reprimand: “Ye Xing, You are more and more courageous, and dare to move the textile machine out! If you are not lazy, don't wrap Da Ren to exchange, Da Ren will agree to change what we can do!”

    Ye Xing grinned, “Da Ren agreed, and you can't interfere.

    Yuan Zhan leaned back on the chair and looked at the two little bickering disciples with a funny face.

    Wu Chen immediately complained to Yuan Zhan, “First Chief Da Ren, making spinning and textile machines was originally the task from Priest Da Ren to Ye Xing, but he was lazy and refused to do it, and he was still pestering with Priest Da Ren. The Moer Gan tribe exchanges a ready-made."

    “Oh?"

    Ye Xing was in a hurry and immediately jumped up and said: "Who said that I am lazy, it was Priest Da Ren not wanting everyone to go out to be frozen in winter, can you say that Priest Da Ren is not doing well?"

    Wu Chen looked ugly, rebutted: "I Say you, I didn't say Priest Da Ren, don't confuse yourself."

    “Hey! You are jealous of me!"

    “Shut up!" Yuan Zhan was angry.

    Two little bowed and did dare not argue again.

    Qi Yuan took this scene into his eyes and sneered in his heart. He thought that no matter where it is, there are always people who are fighting for power and are all fools!

    Wu Chen, one of the idiots, finally, reluctantly exchanged fifty fire ignition tool for fifty textile machines and ten pedal spinning machines.

    Qi Yuan wants a few fires to make a prepayment, and Wu Chen, who was unhappy, rushes back: "If you want, don't pull it down, can I still rely on you? When you send the slave, I will send it back together, I will put the fire in it.”

    Ye Xing jumped up again, and the two little quarreled again.

    Yuan Zhan seems to be annoyed. When he waved his hand, and he compacted the soil and threw the two small ones out to the distance. He said: "Two little bastards, they are praising Priest and petting themselves."

    Qi Yuan laughed, how can he say that Wu Chen is not good? Just listening to the Da Ren helpless and with a few smiles, he know that the two are more favored.

    After talking about it, Yuan Zhan did not mention the prepaid things, and Qi Yuan was not good to mention.

    When Qi Yuan left, Ye Xing the idiot came to him and stayed with him for a long time. The theme was: You see, I was almost yelled in anger by the leader for you, and asked for Priest Da Ren equipment, and offended him. The one who is careful, can you give me a point?

    Qi Yuan gave him a yuan crystal coin, and Ye Xing said that he was not satisfied. "I have to come up with something to give us a look at Priest Da Ren. Can I present your yuan crystal coins to Da Ren?"

    After thinking for a long time, he watched him for a long time, and finally deflated: "Forget it, there is nothing good to see you. Or are you willing to give me your riding beast?"

    Qi Yuan certainly can't send his own beast. He also didn't want the Priest disciple to be so disappointed to leave with nothing. After he traded with Jiu Yuan, he will definitely meet with them again. It is better to have a good speech than to know, and this status is still the same.

    So he called Ye Xing and smiled. "You seem to be interested in the drugs we used to make flax and the bone powder we used? I think if you can show this formula to your Priest Da Ren, he will definitely look at the other side."

    “Forget it, it's not a rare thing." Ye Xing's expression was a bit hesitant.

    Qi Yuan thought that it was really not a rare thing. It was only the formula of the first grade. Many long-term hemp slaves know the formula as long as they have a little bit of a dim eye. If not, he would not ask to give Ye Xing.

    “You have, but your companion Wu Chen does not..." Qi Yuan stopped.

    Ye Xing eyes widened and his face had an open smile, “You said it is good. What if he will make a fire? I also learned a new formula! Qi Yuan Da Ren, teach me, I will remember your friendship, if there will be good things I will come to find you in the future."

    “Okay." Qi Yuan only felt that this trip was very rewarding, but also exchanged an inside price at a very small price.

    Ye Xing got the formula, waved Qi Yuan, gave him a big smile, and ran back to find Priest Da Ren. Whoever suffers, whoever was taken for a fool, only God knows!

    The satisfied Moer Gan people left with a part of the red salt. In the name of protection and transportation, Yuan Zhan sent a hundred warriors to send them back to the river estuary.

    Qi Yuan and his team returned very urgently. No salt was produced around Moer Gan. The red salt tastes so good. They are also eager to bring the red salt back, and the remaining nine tenths of red salt need to be sent after slaves are delivered. They can't catch up.

    “Bué, you must remember the river's position, determine where they are going, and their transportation, and see how many people are waiting there." Yan Mo confessed that he suspected that the Moer Gan people built some sort of a ship.

    Bué bowed, indicating that Priest's word has been kept in mind.

    A few days after Moer Gan’s departure, the 100 escorts who had been escorting them had not returned yet. The first snow in the winter of this year fell down.
