Chapter 273 The Wolf King and the Little Mute 29
Chapter 273 The Wolf King and the Little Mute 29
"Don't worry, our Wild Boar Tribe will have the most and best salt in today's market." The bearded old man in front of Fenghe's stall promised.
Seeing that the other party still hadn't made up his mind, Ya couldn't help but said anxiously, "Don't believe me? If you don't believe me, go around and find someone better than us. All of this will be given to you."
The old man from the goat tribe was skeptical, but the suspicious goat did not immediately exchange with the wild boar tribe.
They only had a limited supply today, so it was better to be cautious. "I'll look around again. If there's no other better salt, we'll trade like this."
The people of the Wild Boar Tribe looked at the goat and saw that it had actually left, their faces full of disdain.
"These herbivorous tribes are the ones who do things the wrong way. If it weren't for the fact that their tribe has so many seeds, I wouldn't treat them well!" Ya complained to Feng angrily.
Feng was able to keep his composure: "Why are you angry? Anyway, that old goat will be back soon. I'll raise the price for him then."
"Good idea!" Ya thought it made sense.
I have to find a scapegoat to vent my anger at the wolf tribe for what I suffered before. Anyway, they have so many herbs at their goat place that I don't know where to put them, so giving a little more to the stingy goats is better.
Ya finally felt a little better.
However, Ya and Feng waited at the stall for a long time, but the old goat did not come back.
"Are the old goat's legs and feet so clumsy? If he doesn't come back, don't blame us for exchanging all the salt." Ya was a little anxious.
"Did they just let something they were about to get fly away like that?"
Someone from the Wild Boar Tribe who was preparing to trade saw people gathering not far away. The noise was getting louder and louder, as if they were fighting over something. They couldn't help but wonder, "Why are there so many people over there?"
A fellow tribesman on the side was one who loved to join in the fun: "Come on, let's go and take a look too."
Anyway, there is plenty of salt here in the Wild Boar Tribe, so it doesn't matter if we put in a little effort.
The two men moved closer to the crowd. The tall Xiong saw a familiar face surrounded by the crowd and asked, "Is it Heng? What are they doing?"
People from other tribes, who were trying to squeeze forward, explained, "Haven't you heard? The Wolf Tribe has found the sea, and the salt we brought today all came from the sea. Heng also said that every tribe except the Wild Boar Tribe can get a handful of salt for free. Let us try it first, and if we like it, we can go back and trade with them!"
Someone beside him said, "Hey, what do you mean by 'exchange it when you're satisfied'? Right now, the tribes are competing in speed. If the salt is really good, it will probably be gone before we can exchange it. I'm going to try it and if it doesn't taste astringent, I'll exchange it."
"I still trust the Wolf Tribe. Doing business with them is much safer than doing business with the Wild Boar Tribe."
"Isn't it? I just heard that the Wild Boar Tribe was going to trick the people of the Goat Tribe!" The two people from the Bear Tribe instantly tilted their hearts towards the Wolf Tribe, and whispered to others.
"It's really hard to change one's nature..." The people around him became more determined in their decision after hearing this.
"What's going on with the Goat Tribe? Can they eat all the salt they exchanged for?" Someone closer to the center suddenly exclaimed, attracting everyone's attention.
"Hey! Old goat! Leave some for us!" The people on the periphery squeezed forward.
The old goat standing at the front of the team ignored the shouting behind him and said stubbornly to the white-haired boy in front of him, "Son, look at us. We have a few baskets of herbs and a bag of seeds. How much salt can you give us in exchange?"
Although the old goat was old, he was not confused. He took a small handful of the salt and tasted it, and he knew that it was definitely not salt from an ordinary salt mine.
This salt tastes only salty, without any bitterness at all. It is a rare delicacy.
Just based on the taste, Old Goat would take some back home even if it meant spending all his money.
Chu Jun's eyes lit up when he saw the baskets of herbs brought by the Goat Tribe.
The Goat Tribe lives on cliffs all year round and is best at dealing with these herbs. If you were to ask who is most likely to bring the antidote, it would be the Goat Tribe.
However, Chu Jun did not understand the market situation of herbal medicine, so the specific matters had to be discussed by Heng.
Mo Heng, who was originally watching the fun from behind, was pushed in front of the old goat by Chu Jun with one hand. Looking into the old man's old but bright eyes, he said concisely: "Ten cans of salt."
The old goat was a little surprised, then he started to rejoice: "Okay, okay! Change it! Change it now!"
Just now at the Wild Boar Tribe, we only managed to negotiate eight cans of these things. Now, we can exchange them for ten cans of salt from the Wolf Tribe. It's a good deal. It would be foolish for the old goat not to do it.
Moreover, he had a sharp eye and saw that the quality of the wolf tribe's salt storage jars was so good that even if they were taken to the market for trading, they were more valuable than ordinary ones.
Better salt and better pottery jars. The old goat felt that the wolf tribe was too honest in doing business.
The old goat is indeed a stingy person, but he also knows that equal exchange is conducive to long-term transactions, and he doesn't want to take advantage of it for nothing.
He looked at the white-haired boy who had not spoken beside Heng, thought for a while, and touched his waist.
He took down a cowhide bag and handed it to Chu Jun. "Child, this medicine helped a child in our tribe who was born mute recover his voice after drinking it. I thought you might need it. This is all I brought today. Take it."
Chu Jun smiled happily upon hearing this. He happily took the bag and mouthed thanks to the old goat.
He knew that the medicine must be effective because he received a message from the system the moment the old goat finished speaking.
[Congratulations on successfully finding the [correct] herb. After taking the herb, the voice system will be activated. Stay tuned~
Note: Where are the cheaters? Where have all the cheaters gone?! This isn’t how we play the game!]
Chu Jun ignored the system's "impotent rage" and focused on the antidote he had obtained for no reason. Although it looked ordinary, it had a strong medicinal fragrance that gave off a distinct impression.
Thinking about how the system had said that this herb was worth a piece of porcelain and was a very valuable item, the old man in front of him actually gave it to him.
As a gift of reciprocity, Chu Yun decided to give the old goat a piece of porcelain he made himself.
"Is this for me?" asked the old goat, looking at the "pottery jar" in front of him.
Chu Yun nodded.
The old goat was a little surprised, thinking that this wolf kid really had no vigilance at all.
I don't even know if this medicine will work, but I'm trusting others. How do the elders in this tribe educate their children? The old goat looked at Heng beside him with a condemning look.
Seeing that Heng ignored the boy and looking at his sincere eyes, the old goat did not have any good intentions towards the boy.
"It's just a clay pot. Take it. I'll bring something else to the wolf tribe next year."
