67 Took a big advantage (2nd Update, 3,000 words)
Li Tianyang couldn't help but be surprised, Dahai's gift was really beyond Li Tianyang's expectations, and it also made him have a certain expectation of such an indigenous price. Although Li Tianyang has been around for these days, because of his injury, he basically did not appear on the construction site again except for a few days after he started working. However, Wu Jie and the others still faithfully implemented the reclamation plan formulated by Li Tianyang and them.
In more than ten days, nearly two hundred teenagers, such a labor force, just thinking about it, can know how great the power should be. In fact, these days, under the labor of everyone, they have reclaimed a land area the size of three or four football fields around the location they chose, and the total value of the gifts given by Li Tianyang is only less than one or two pieces of silver.
You know, this is the forty-third year of Wanli, it is the most developed time in the south of the Yangtze River, Li Tianyang is located in Qiongzhou, but it has also caught up with this good season, and the development of the textile industry is also very rapid. Like the cotton cloth that Li Tianyang is taking out now, although the workmanship and quality are not top-notch, they are also spun by Li Tianyang in their camp, and the workmanship is also excellent, and the world value is about two or three coins of silver. But don't forget, this is the cotton cloth produced and sold by Li Tianyang and their camp, and the actual cost is definitely less than the world price.
Coupled with those things that are not worth much, one or two lines of silver are already considered to be overestimated by Li Tianyang.
Just this little thing, in exchange for more than 30 acres of fertile land, in exchange for you, will you have a faster heartbeat, I am very happy.
Finally suppressed the joy in his heart, Li Tianyang quietly took over the topic: "Thank you to the elder, it's just that the kid still has a question, I wonder if the elder can solve my doubts?" ”
"There's a lot of things going on with the little guy, let's say it quickly!!" The old man was a little impatient.
"Now that I have exchanged my supplies for land, in the future, if I want to expand the area, will I still be able to exchange enough land from my clan?"
Seeing that Li Tianyang was asking about the future business, the impatience on the old man's face disappeared suddenly, and he looked at Li Tianyang with a smile on his face: "As long as it is a place within a radius of 100 miles, you can choose whatever you choose, and we can call the shots in our clan and exchange it for you." If other tribes who don't open their eyes come to trouble you, you can still take the name of our Zhuluo Mountain Society, and forgive them for not having the courage to harass you again. ”
"Any questions?"
"No, let's ask the elders to tell us what kind of price we have to pay and how much land we will get in exchange." Li Tianyang finished asking the doubts in his heart, and replied respectfully towards Dahai.
"So be it!! Seeing that you are also refugees who have been displaced here, it is estimated that there are not many supplies, and the people of our Zhuluo Mountain Society are not those bandits on the mountain, as long as you prepare fifty bags for us according to the preparations of the last time, then the land within a radius of ten miles will be yours. If you still don't think it's enough, as long as you turn your back to the direction of our Zhuluo Mountain, you can also reclaim a few more miles of land for you. The old man Dahai gestured, thinking that the lion had opened his mouth to say a number in his mind.
And Li Tianyang began to calculate in his heart, how much fertile land could be reclaimed in these ten miles of land, and he didn't have the courage to talk to the old man of Dahai for a while.
"What, do you think the price is too high??" Seeing that Li Tianyang didn't reply for a long time, the old man Dahai thought that his asking price was too high, so he scared Li Tianyang, and hurriedly took the initiative to reduce the price: "This ...... If you don't think it's cost-effective, then, I'll be in charge, thirty bags, so it's okay!! If it is less, it will be difficult for me to go back, and these things will just be enough for the old and young people in our clan to share a share. ”
I just calculated the specific area in my mind, where did I think that the elderly would misunderstand that they dislike the cost is too great. Of course, as a normal person, Li Tianyang will not take the initiative to stand up and explain this misunderstanding, so let this misunderstanding continue to be hidden like this.
"Then let's do what the elder wants, now we will go back and prepare supplies, and ask the elder to wait here for a while." Li Tianyang instructed the immortal behind him to take the teenagers on the other side back to the camp to get the supplies he needed.
It's not that Li Tianyang is stingy, taking advantage of other people's big advantages, and he doesn't invite others to their camp to sit down. In fact, in today's camp, there are all kinds of ruins waiting to be rebuilt, and if you entertain these natives, you will inevitably take them on the boat, so there will also be a danger of exposing Li Tianyang's actual strength and wealth. At that time, if someone accidentally goes to the wrong place and sees something that should not be seen on the ship, and then looks dazzled and arouses greed, then the fruits of Li Tianyang's labor these days will also be in vain.
Therefore, Li Tianyang would rather be cautious and stingy, and personally transport the materials out of the ship and hand them over to the natives, rather than make a difference at this time.
"Little one, show me your saber." There was nothing to do, and the old man Dahai pointed to the long knife hanging from Decai's waist and said enviously.
Since the matter was negotiated, Li Tianyang was not easy to save the old man's face, regardless of the anxious and unwilling eyes of Decai, he took out a long knife from his waist and handed it to the old man with his backhand.
"Not bad, not bad, really good." The old man Dahai waved the long knife in his hand, shook his hand and danced a knife flower, and was indescribably satisfied with this long knife: "Ma Yao boy, let's see if this knife is much stronger than your father's baby." ”
After saying this, he threw the long knife behind him, and the young man who came with him last time was not afraid that he would be accidentally injured by the knife.
The young man named Ma Yao, who lifted the weight like a long knife, stroked the blade with his hand, and then slashed at the air a few times, causing a burst of sound. In the end, he reluctantly handed the long knife back to the old man Dahai: "It is indeed much sharper than my father's long knife." It's just that the blade is really not well maintained, and looking at the situation, it is estimated that it has not been oiled for a long time. ”
After saying this, he glared at Decai a few times, resentful of the secret casting of this weapon pearl, and stared at Decai a little confused.
"Otherwise, our deal will be changed, and we won't want those supplies, we just need these dozen weapons in your hands, how about it?" Old man Dahai's eyes lit up, and he stroked the snow-white long knife like a lover.
Hearing this, even Ma Yao and Lahok, who had not spoken for a long time behind the old man, couldn't help but be overjoyed, and looked at Li Tianyang with blazing eyes.
"I'm sorry, elder. We are living overseas, and we are indispensable for self-defense, and the whole camp adds up to only twenty or thirty such good weapons, where do we dare to take them out and trade with you. "Li Tianyang has something to talk nonsense about, bullying people who don't understand the outside world.
Although during the Wanli period, Qiongzhou did not excavate any large iron ore, but as a pirate, Li De and them, their pursuit of these controlled weapons made Li Tianyang and them also stained, and this time they prepared more than 200 similar long knives with the ship, not to mention spears and bows and arrows with less iron. Li Tianyang has always been cautious outside, and a sharp weapon like this must not be used as a transaction to strengthen the Zhuluo Mountain Society, a potential enemy in the future.
"Hmph, I told you, as long as you report the name of our Zhuluo Mountain, no one will dare to fight your idea within a radius of 100 miles, what is the use of this weapon." The old man was not happy, and his face fell suddenly.
"How can we not believe what the elder says! It's just that these poisonous snakes and beasts all over the mountains and wilderness don't have our wisdom, how can we know your old name! Li Tianyang carefully apologized: "Without these weapons for self-defense, we are beasts that have lost their minions, and it is rare to survive in this primeval forest." ”
"Forget it, I know that the little guy is reluctant, if you want to put our race aside, you won't easily replace these sharp weapons." Fortunately, the old man was just temporary, and he also needed the materials that Li Tianyang and them prepared last time, so he could only play with the long knife in his hand nostalgically, and finally handed it back to Li Tianyang.
Li Tianyang didn't take the long knife, and in the old man's confused gaze, he handed over the scabbard on Decai's waist: "The so-called sword is given to heroes, and heroes like the elders have to be matched with such a sharp weapon, and if it falls into our hands, it is really a famous weapon." We can't take out more, but a long knife can still be even, since the elder loves this long knife so much, the boy borrowed flowers to offer the Buddha, and gave this knife to the elder. ”
"Haha~~~Hahaha~~~ I like you more and more, it's really good!!" The old man who fulfilled his wish couldn't help but be overjoyed, holding the long knife and looking at it again and again, he almost surprised it into his stomach: "If there is anything or difficult in the future, you kid can go directly to Zhuluo Mountain to find me, and I will help you solve it!" ”
"That kid is here, thank the elder first!!" A knife for a promise is not a loss.
It's just that when he saw Ma Yao and Lahouk, those eager and envious eyes, he had a headache again. Judging from the old man's attitude towards the two of them and the dress between the two people, they must have a high status among their ethnic group. If these two people can be bought, then in the future, it is estimated that Li Tianyang will be able to save them a lot less trouble. Besides, from the perspective of these natives now, the price they need to pay to buy them is really not worth mentioning in Li Tianyang's opinion.
It's just that the embarrassment is that Li Tianyang categorically rejected the old man's opinion before, and in the blink of an eye, he gave away two extremely excellent weapons in their eyes for nothing, and they couldn't detect the slightest bit of cattiness, which was despising other people's IQ.
Fortunately, Li Tianyang suddenly thought that the dagger he carried with him for self-defense, plus the decai who was close to him, must have brought the same dagger with him, which made Li Tianyang take care of it.
"I also have two self-defense weapons here, although they are not as good as long knives, but they are also sharp weapons, it is better to give them to Uncle Lahok and this big brother Ma Yao." Li Tianyang took out the dagger from Decai's arms, then took out the dagger that he had already on his body, and handed it directly to the two who were greedy.
"Thank you!! Haha, in the hurry of coming back, I really forgot to bring the prey I promised to give to you last time, next time I will definitely hunt a black bear for you!! Lahouke was not polite at all, took the dagger from Li Tianyang's ground and took it out to look at it.
The young man named Ma Yao looked at Li Tianyang with some embarrassment, but he couldn't hinder the attraction of the weapon, so he finally smiled at Li Tianyang shyly, took the dagger sent by Li Tianyang, and held it in his hand lovingly.
In a happy scene, the three natives got their beloved things, and Li Tianyang gained the friendship of their natives.
