Chapter 16 (1/2)
The chief's calm face summoned a soldier and gave a few orders in a low voice.
The soldier took orders and ran to the cave.
The chief's face put on a smile again, as if nothing had happened just now. He said to Qi: ”I'll send someone to the cave to prepare things. A few distinguished guests will wait for a moment.”
Qi Shang and the other three yellow bottom tribe soldiers in the eyes of the proud light flash.
With a bag of inferior salt for 900 Jin of fresh meat, the Tushan tribe has not compromised in such an unfair trade.
In a good mood, Qi Shang naturally didn't care about waiting for such a little time. With a smile and a wave, he said, ”chief Tu Shan is too polite.”
After a while, four soldiers came out of the cave. Each soldier carried a large bag of things wrapped in animal skin on his shoulder.
Ye Xi knew that it was full of fresh meat.
He sighed in his heart. Nine hundred catties of meat were exchanged with blood and sweat by the soldiers of Tushan at the risk of their lives, so they were exchanged with a bag of inferior salt.
Qi Shang looked at the meat, forced down the upturned corners of his mouth to maintain his indifferent posture.
Chief: ”several have been waiting.”
Qi Shang Ke airway: ”nothing, nothing.”
”Chief.” One of the soldiers who took the meat suddenly called out.
”What's the matter?”
The soldier muttered: ”our tribe fresh meat is not enough 900 Jin, plus dried meat is not enough.” The voice is not big or small, just heard by the people of Huangbo tribe.
Oh? Qi Shang frowned and looked at the animal skin package on the ground. He turned and drank to the nine bears behind him: ”go and untie them all.”
Nine bears were ordered to come forward and spread out the skins.
When you untie those thick skins, the meat inside looks less than 900 kg. It looks like about 700 kg, and part of it is dried meat.
What's the meaning of the cold mountain
The chief's face was puzzled: ”the hunting team's income is not good these two days, so there is no fresh meat, but I don't know that I can't even scrape up 900 kg of meat.”
The hunting team's income is not good these two days? Yexi thought of yesterday's saber toothed tiger, Longhorn deer and other prey, and admired the chief's ability to tell lies.
Qi was still cold and his face was about to say something. The chief immediately said, ”don't do this. I'll exchange water with you.”
Hearing this, ye Xi immediately responded that this was the chief's purpose! What their tribe lacks most is water! If you use water instead of meat, you will not suffer a loss!
Ye Xi couldn't help but look at the chief. Just now the soldier said that there was no meat in the tribe. I'm afraid the chief ordered it in advance.
Habitat is still a listen to water exchange, face a angry face, change the color of hesitation: ”clear water?”
”Yes The chief clenched his teeth, looking like a pain in the flesh.
Then he waved and told the soldier, ”go, take out the water stored in the tribe.”
”Chief!” Exclaimed the soldier, with a look of reluctance.
As soon as ye Xi's mouth was drawn, the soldier was also a playwright. It seemed that he was brave in their hunting team and called pestle.
”No more! Go Said the chief angrily.
Clubbed face covered with helpless heartache, and finally stomped his feet, ran to the cave.
Ye Xi:
After a while, the pestle came back with a small barrel.
The pestle gave the cask to the chief.
Qi Shang looked at the bucket, his eyes lit up and his feet moved. He almost couldn't help going up to see how much water there was in it.
The chief gave a slight meal, carefully holding the bucket to the direction of qishang.
Qi Shang eyes a glance, immediately floating on the face of joy, there are more than half a bucket of water!
Qi Shang barely controlled his joy: ”the meat on the ground and the water can change salt to you.”
But the chief frowned and said, ”what are you talking about! If you add this water, of course, you can't get so much meat! ”
”What do you mean?”
”Five hundred catties of meat, plus the water, if that doesn't work, then forget it.”
