Chapter 172:Pack Animal

This plain outside the mountains is huge and unimaginable, and Master Niu has led the caravan for five consecutive days, but he is still in the geographical area of the plain.

There are still a large forest on the plain, but there are not many fierce beasts in the forest, even the more powerful beasts are not many; such forests are as safe as the empty space around the tribe for the customary, dangerous mountain forest members of the mountains.

Had it not been for these forests, the tribes that had long lived in the surrounding area had been divided up and had belonged to their exclusive hunting grounds, and large-scale hunting by outsiders would not have been allowed; otherwise the warriors in the carnage would have been able to get quite amazing meat from these forests.

So in order not to have unnecessary fighting, the caravans occasionally in the forest, hunting a beast or two to beat the tooth sacrifice, there is no more hunting behavior.

Along the road that had long been trampled out by the predecessors, the carnage led by Master Niu could find more than two tribal gatherings every day; and as they advanced, the number of tribes found was getting denser and denser.

This makes it difficult for the mountain guns in the caravan to imagine, if it is really the central area of the plain, what an amazing degree of prosperity there is...

Because of the success of the first transaction with the Huang Ding tribe before the first encounter, they almost regarded it as a mountain robbery experience; in the next few days, after discovering a new tribe, the cow always sent a deputy group of witches, with a small team of escorts to remind and negotiate.

After giving the other party a basic preparation, the big ticket of the caravan passed slowly; although these strong mountain guns, when they approached these tribes, they always made the other party nervous, but there was no such direct confrontation.

For the cow, I really think this is a huge progress!

It must be said that even these poor tribes on the edge of the plains do not know how much comfort and wealth they are in life compared to the natives of the mountains.

A lighter, or a pound of white sugar for two hundred pounds of grain, two pots for 500 pounds of grain per bottle... In short, the price set by the cow master for his goods is not cheap; of course, if you use meat to replace food, you only pay half the amount.

What surprised everyone in the caravan was that those that looked quite beautiful, but absolutely could not eat and drink Yiwu trinkets; the cow master directly set a high price of a frightening person, five hundred pounds of animal meat, or dried meat, which is not discounted, not talking about the price, and love to buy or not to buy.

"This is a person whose head is kicked stupid by a beast, who will take 500 pounds of animal meat in exchange for something the size of this finger."The mountain guns in the caravan thought so...

But it turned out that the price set by the cow master was quite reasonable, and even from the faces of the tribal members, it was quite cheap.

For the unprecedented rare goods in the caravan, the tribes encountered along the road will buy a little bit no matter how much.

Only because of the high price, even if these tribes endure the desire to trade in their hearts, they only choose a few dozen kinds of goods, and still have to pay dozens of baskets of food.

Even the mountain cannons have long believed that the compulsory trinkets that can't be sold, and two, a thousand pounds of dried meat have been sold in the past five days; suddenly the image of the old man in the whole carry has become more and more tall.

Even the other five witches of the deputy group felt that the man of the cow master was unfathomable!

******

By the seventh day of entering the plains, the goods carried by the carnage had only been sold in the way of twenty per cent; but the food harvested was sufficient to fill the rattan baskets carried by the soldiers in the carn.

Even if these crops are not as easy to fill their stomachs as meat, as long as they are successfully brought back to the mountains, they can still give the entire tribal alliance members a few days of rations per capita.

For such a harvest, the rest of the caravan was satisfied with the extreme; if you hurry, you can run to the plain a few times this winter in exchange for a considerable amount of food.

“Master, in two days we will start to return!”Otherwise, there will be more food, and we will not be able to bring it back.”The witch of the Grey Cave tribe proposed to the master.

The old man nodded: "Look at the situation, if you really can't do it, you can only do this; in addition, tell the caravan soldiers that the meat is not moving at all, but other foods can eat casually, and when you go back, I'm afraid there is no such treatment."

After the witch of the Grey Hole tribe responded, he went down to convey the latest orders of the cow master.

The cow master looked at the fire in front of him, although the harvest is already very good, but did not bring out these goods tossed, in exchange for more food, this goods are always a little reluctant...

On the eighth day, the scene in front of the caravan changed, no longer the dense forest, and all kinds of harvested fields; under the thin snow, a large area of grass was revealed, and the caravan had unknowingly entered the vast grassland area.

After walking on the grassland for more than an hour, the cow master and others can see the two sides of the road, and the primitive natives who drive the sheep to herds are constantly appeared; looking at the huge caravan, the color of vigilance appeared in the eyes of these people, and it is better not to turn around and run.

A sudden idea suddenly rose from the head of the cow master, he hurriedly called a soldier, and after he had ordered a few words in his ear, the soldier immediately ran to the herdsman.

The soldier returned with a happy face and reported: "Old cow, two days forward, there is indeed a tribe called Tuen; they domesticate a beast called a wild cow, and it is said that a desert cow can bring a lot of things."

The old man of the cow said with great joy: manpower can not carry enough food, then trade a little domesticated beast to carry; each wild cow can always carry the food carried by several soldiers!In addition, when they return, they kill these wild cattle, which is not a large amount of meat.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly urged the caravan, who had already strode forward, and suddenly began to run; for a time these human-shaped animals were carrying heavy rattan baskets, and actually reached the high speed of not less than 50 yards.

A day later, the picture in the mouth of the herdsmen has appeared in front of everyone, and there are many triangles of poor cowhair tents, and more are the large groups of wild cattle that are eating grass leisurely.

The sound of the "wow" cattle call came to the cow's master's ear, and the goods suddenly felt that this was the most beautiful sound in the world.
