Chapter 108 (1/2)
The sidings chamber of commerce is very efficient.
After eighteen gold exchange rolls worth 1000 gold coins were handed in, more than 7000 northern barbarians followed Sean happily. From their expressions, they can't see that these people are a little conscious of being slaves. It seems that they are like a group of guys who come to travel. Many of them even carry wooden sticks and other things in their hands. It seems that they are in a hurry, so they subconsciously bring out what they have in their hands.
Sean looked like he couldn't laugh or cry.
Out of the shabby little house, groups of northern barbarians came out behind Sean. The veterans naturally felt happy when they looked at these people who looked like barbarians. Especially these barbarians didn't seem to resist at all. Almost everyone subconsciously felt that Sean was so great that he could make these barbarians obey.
Even Alfred came up and patted Sean on the shoulder, smiled and said, ”Captain, there's a set.”
Anyone is very convinced of the strength of barbarians. But only Sean knew that these were not barbarians at all. Although they looked like barbarians, they were a group of northern barbarians with hard IQ. The kingdom of potoroa and the active area of the northern barbarians are separated by two kingdoms. Therefore, it is normal that they do not know what kind of people the northern barbarians are, but this does not mean that other people here in the sardins oasis do not know what kind of people the northern barbarians are.
No one has ever come to the sardins oasis to buy northern barbarian slaves, except to be a farmer. However, Sean's team doesn't look like people who come to buy farmers. Can it be said that this is an emerging aristocrat who has just obtained the land and is in urgent need of human cultivation? The mercenaries who had secretly put away their tusks once again became ready to move. As long as they killed Sean and others, robbed their goods, and then sold the northern barbarians back to the sardins chamber of Commerce, the deal was worth doing anyway.
However, they are not stupid enough to come to Shawn's trouble now, because this is simply provoking the authority of the sardins chamber of Commerce.
Soon, the sardins chamber of Commerce sent another waiter to lead Sean and others to an empty field that had already been prepared.
In fact, such empty places will be prepared by the buyer himself. Then, after purchasing the slaves, the seller will be responsible for sending the slaves. What to do next is the buyer's own business. But Sean came in a hurry and had no foundation. As soon as he entered the sedings oasis, he went straight to the sedings chamber of Commerce. Therefore, this open space was actually rented from the sedings chamber of Commerce. It was 100 gold coins a day.
After settling down here, Sean explained the situation of these northern barbarians to Alfred. At the same time, he took out the last gold exchange roll and asked the veterans to buy food first. At least, he should give these northern barbarians a full meal first. Such a toss is naturally a chicken flying dog jumping. Fortunately, the harvest horn chamber of Commerce specializing in grain has opened a branch here in the sardins oasis, so it is easier to purchase grain. Otherwise, if you really go to the harvest oasis to purchase grain, it will take at least three days this time.
Among the thirteen oases, except the three most central oases, which are several kilometers away from each other, the other ten oases are oval distributed around with the three central oases as the core, respectively named as the top ten chambers of Commerce. The setines oasis and the harvest oasis are just a diagonal distance, but there are special transportation routes here in the trade capital. These transportation routes connect all the 13 oases and prohibit all unauthorized personnel from walking on them.
The absolute clearance of each transport route also ensures that reinforcements can be completed within two days at the latest in case of emergency. Of course, this kind of reinforcement is naturally calculated based on the horse's foot strength. If it is converted into adult foot strength, it will take at least three to four days.
Soon, the grain was purchased back, and the northern barbarians immediately burst into a burst of excited cheers. Looking at their green eyes, it was impossible to look directly at them. However, although there is food, there is no other meat, but the northern barbarians don't pay special attention. They are happy to cook a big pot of rice and really experience the meaning of Sean's sentence ”wrap three meals and keep the rice full”.
”Boss, you are a good man.” A big man showed a bright smile while eating.
As the man said this, other northern barbarians echoed, and the scene was very lively for a time. For these northern barbarians, being able to eat a full meal is the happiest thing in the world. As for other things, they don't care and never think about them. Maybe it's because of this, so northern barbarians will have a particularly relaxed and happy life. It's just that outsiders can't know how much sadness is behind this relaxed and happy life.
”Boss, I want to give you this unitary position.” The big man spoke again. A bowl of rice was just finished by him. He twisted several grains of rice on the porcelain bowl one by one with his fingers and put them in his mouth. There was no waste at all.
Hearing the big man's words, Sean knew that the big man was actually the unitary head of the tribe. Before, he always thought that the old man who stopped him in the chamber of Commerce was Youchang, because according to Sean's memory, Youchang of the northern barbarian tribe was generally served by experienced old people. The so-called rich experience here is not combat experience, but the experience of looking for food on the ice in the Northwest.
The continuation of a northern barbarian tribe depends largely on how much food can be found. However, in the ice area, food is really very limited. Sometimes they even have to fight with other tribes. Of course, they won't kill them all. As long as another tribe is willing to surrender, they will spare each other and merge into one tribe. Those large northern barbarian tribes come from this way.
Although life is very hard, they will try their best to leave food to children and the elderly, because the former is their future. If they lose it, the tribe will not be able to continue to inherit it. The latter is the parents who raise them. If there were no parents to leave food, there would be no them today.
”Can't you give it to me?” Sean gave a bitter smile.
”There's nothing bad. Whoever can get food is capable, and the capable person is Youchang.” The big man added another bowl of rice and said brightly, ”boss, you are more capable than me, so you'd better be your head.”
