Datang Nongwang

Chapter 740

Xingba took his orders and took more than two hundred people to the place where the aborigines were located.

On the road.

Xing Ba looked at Liao Xian who was accompanying him and asked, "Evil Ya, why are you so careful, Mr. Young Master? There are only a few natives, why are we afraid of them? If they dare to do anything to us, we just need to throw two iron thunderbolts, these natives I have to go see Hades, why be afraid of them."

"You, you, you have been with Mr. Xiaolang for many years. Don't you know that Mr. Xiaolang is a great kind person. Although the people here are all natives, they are human after all. Besides, Mr. I don't like to kill people." Liao Xian pointed at Xingba and said.

Xing Ba scratched his head, and smiled, "Don't tell Mr. Xiao Lang, otherwise, I will suffer."

"Okay, I got it. In the future, when you do things for Xiao Langjun, don't always think about what Xiao Langjun thinks, just do things according to Xiao Langjun's orders. Our little Langjun is a very noble person. I think back then When Mr. Xiao Lang's title was only a county male, everyone was not optimistic about Mr. Xiao Lang. Unexpectedly, in just a few years, Mr. Xiao Lang's official position is getting bigger and bigger, and his title is getting higher and higher. I believe After we return to Datang this time, Mr. Xiao Lang's title will definitely be crowned king by the sage. At that time, we will be able to rely on Mr. Xiao Lang, and we will have no worries for a lifetime, and future generations can also enjoy Mr. Xiao Lang's protection. There is food and drink." Liao Xian thought clearly.

Xingba smiled, thinking about it in his heart.

Of course he understood what Liao Xian said.

This time, Li Chongyuan took them to this exotic land to find the so-called high-yielding grain seeds.

And they heard.

I heard Li Chongyuan say that the yield of corn per mu can reach ten shi, or even exceed ten shi.

This is definitely an astronomical figure in the Tang Dynasty.

As far as the grains grown in the Tang State are concerned, if the yield per mu reaches three shi, it is already a bumper harvest. In Li Chongyuan's field, if the yield per mu reaches five shi, it is definitely a super bumper harvest.

of course.

No matter what crop it is, everything is inseparable from fertilizer.

Li Chongyuan couldn't get chemical fertilizers, so he could only use farm manure.

Coupled with Li Chongyuan's management methods, as well as agricultural irrigation technology, etc., it will be difficult not to have a bumper harvest.

And here, there is a super food called corn.

If it is really possible to get the super grain seeds here back to Tang country as Liao Xian thought.

Li Chongyuan's future is limitless.

But the words came back again.

As far as Li Chongyuan is concerned, although his official position is not obvious, his title is already very high.

If you want to climb up to another level, there is no great credit, so don't even think about it.

Just right.

Food is an opportunity.

As for whether Li Chongyuan's title can climb to such a level, that is, the first level of prince, it depends on whether Li Shimin takes a fancy to the grain seeds that Li Chongyuan got back.

Go all the way to the place where the aborigines live.

Shortly after.

When Xing Ba and the others arrived only a few miles away from the indigenous people, Xing Ba and the others stopped, "Eya, you cover me here, I'll take someone to explore first."

"Okay." Liao Xian responded, directing the others to prepare for the response.

Xingba led dozens of people, and walked forward cautiously.

After a while.

When Xingba and the others approached the aborigines' settlement, some aborigines had already discovered them.

Wow la la one piece.

In an instant.

Hundreds of aborigines, wrapped in animal skins, with various bird feathers on their heads, either holding bows or wooden guns, rushed towards Xingba and dozens of them.

moment.

On the eighth line, they were surrounded by these natives.

This made Liao Xian and the others in the distance suddenly nervous, and at the same time, they were also making arrangements for the response.

Xing Ba clasped his fists together, and performed the etiquette of meeting the aborigines in Tang Dynasty, "I am Datang, passing through here, please forgive me if I disturb you."

The natives looked at the group in front of them, wearing clothes they had never seen before, and seeing the weapons they were holding, they were obviously not products of their place.

Curious eyes, curious heart, never stopped.

"Wow..." A native pointed at Xingba and the others, and wowed for a long time.

When he said wow, it gave him a headache, and he didn't understand what he meant by wow.

but.

Xingba and the others were not afraid, let alone worried at all.

For the natives in front of them, the weapons in their hands were extremely poor.

Although the bow is a bow, the arrow is not made of iron, it is still a wooden arrow.

even.

Line [-] They looked at the hundreds of natives in front of them, only a few had iron knives, and they were pitifully small.

Xing Ba really didn't notice such aborigines, and he was not afraid of what these aborigines could do to them.

after all.

Xingba and their armor, plus knives, bows and arrows, and halberds.

Even more.

Xingba was carrying firecrackers, and the soldiers of the Xiang family behind him even carried twenty iron thunderbolts.

The firecrackers, they were distributed by Li Chongyuan to Xingba and the others long ago.

As for Tie Leizi, this was given to them by Li Chongyuan, just in case.

Although Li Chongyuan said he was unwilling to have any conflicts with these natives, he couldn't stand the fact that the other party's situation was unknown, and he couldn't stop whether the other party would attack them.

In a word, be prepared.

Li Chongyuan didn't want to cause casualties to his side because of his stinginess.

Therefore, in addition to Xingba and the others who carried iron thunder seeds, Li Chongyuan also distributed iron thunder seeds to the other crop hunting teams.

For example, in the team led by Chen Juan, Chen Huan and the others, Li Chongyuan distributed twenty iron thunders to the soldiers of the Xiang family who followed.

and so.

At this moment, Xing Ba didn't care at all what the natives in front of him would do to them, even if there was a conflict, he wouldn't be afraid.

Xingba can't understand the other party's words, and the other party can't understand Xingba's words.

In order to communicate effectively, Xingba can only turn on the international language and gestures according to what Li Chongyuan once explained.

Gestures, plus expressions and so on.

This time, the other party seemed to understand Xingba's expression.

"Wow..." The native seemed to understand what these people in front of him were doing, and was all over again.

Following his wah-wah sound, all the natives put down their bows and arrows.

Although the bow and arrow were put down, they still surrounded Xingba and the others.

Communicate, communicate again, gesture and gesture.

After half an hour, a large number of people came again from the indigenous side.

With the arrival of this group of natives, after seeing Xingba and the others, nothing but curiosity was nothing but curiosity.

After a long and ineffective gesture communication, the aborigines no longer surrounded Xingba and the others.

And Xingba seemed to understand the meaning of the other party, and told a soldier beside him: "Go and inform Liao Xian, and let someone inform Xiao Langjun to bring someone over."

After the soldiers got the words, they left quickly.

Soon, Liao Xian ran over with more than a hundred people and joined Xingba and the others.

Following the arrival of Liao Xian and the others, the natives suddenly became more active.

An hour later, Li Chongyuan rushed over with everyone.

As soon as Li Chongyuan arrived, Xingba's subordinate began to introduce Li Chongyuan to the natives. This gesture was so good that they all wondered if Xingba's previous life was just for this job.

why.

Because after Xing Ba's gestures and introductions, all the aborigines saluted Li Chongyuan collectively as if they had seen some great person.

This kind of courtesy made Li Chongyuan think that he was their king.

(For convenience, the following is in the form of dialogue)
"Respected His Royal Highness Datang County King, it is an honor for our tribe to come to our tribe from a long distance. Please also respect His Royal Highness Datang County King to accompany us to our tribe and enjoy the delicious food of our tribe." The native side , a tribal leader saluted Li Chongyuan and said.

Li Chongyuan returned a salute, and said with a smile: "It's my honor, sorry to bother you."

Everything went smoothly.

There was no conflict between the two sides as Li Chongyuan thought earlier.

On the way into the territory of the indigenous tribe, Li Chongyuan chatted happily with the leader.

As for how to chat, it is nothing more than talking through gestures, facial expressions and many other methods.

And after chatting along the way, Li Chongyuan finally understood why these natives killed people after seeing people like Li Chongyuan and the others.

This tribe was originally a normal tribe.

Moreover, it has always belonged to the bullied party.

According to the leader of this tribe, they were originally a tribe in the south.

Unable to bear the oppression of other tribes over there, hundreds of years ago, the old leader of the tribe and all the members of the tribe migrated to this place, and they have been multiplied from generation to generation.

Kindness is the essence of this tribe.

Therefore, it was because of the kindness of this tribe that there was no conflict, and Li Chongyuan and the others were invited into the tribe.

After arriving at the tribal territory.

Li Chongyuan met the chief of the tribe, Xijia.

There are several leaders in the tribe, and this Xijia is the big leader.

The big leader commands the entire tribe and has the absolute right to speak, and can even decide the size of the entire tribe, even life and death.

"I don't know if the guests who come from afar come to our tribe, what are they asking for?" After chatting with Xijia, Xijia asked what was in his heart.

Li Chongyuan, who was sitting on the ground, kept staring at Xijia, and when he saw what he asked, he smiled and said: "Boss, we came here from a long distance, and it must be a lie to say that we have nothing to ask for. We have no other requests. Ask the big leader to give some food to your tribe."

Li Chongyuan is very direct.

Of course it has to be direct.

Just now, when Li Chongyuan was talking to Xijia, Xijia's eyes never left Li Chongyuan's clothes and knives.

Xijia covets the things on Li Chongyuan.

As for the fabric of the clothes worn by Li Chongyuan, these aborigines could not have them.

Don't talk about matching knives.

They rarely have iron knives, and even if they do, they are made from natural metal ores.

In contrast to Li Chongyuan and the others, these are basic items.

Xijia was greedy, and Li Chongyuan was very straightforward when he asked this question.

"Food? Don't you have any food?" Xijia was curious.

Food, it's nothing to them.

And what Li Chongyuan was asking for was just some food, which made him curious.

Li Chongyuan shook his head, "Of course we also have food, but we have to go back to our hometown tens of thousands of miles away from here, so we need a lot of food. Of course, if the chief is willing to give us food, as long as we have Yes, as long as the big boss speaks, I will never be stingy."

After Xijia heard Li Chongyuan's words, a golden light immediately appeared in his eyes.

That was exactly what he wanted to hear.

Xijia thought to himself, 'Okay, that's really good.These people from afar, everyone has exquisite knives and such beautiful clothes in their hands.If our tribe has such exquisite knives, if people from other tribes bully us in the future, we will no longer have to be afraid of those tribes. '

Xijia was excited, but he was too embarrassed to ask for it directly.

Li Chongyuan looked at Xijia's expression and knew it in his heart.

Ever since he chatted with this great leader, Li Chongyuan saw what he was coveting about him.

At this time, Li Chongyuan already had an idea in his heart, that is, to barter.

Xijia was embarrassed to speak, and Li Chongyuan was eager to get food, so he stopped making detours.

Immediately, Li Chongyuan stretched out his hand to Xing Ba who was behind him, and as if Xing Ba understood, he handed over a knife.

Li Chongyuan took the knife and said bluntly to Xijia: "Boss, what do you think of my knife? How much food is it worth?"

"Hiss~~, honored guest, this is a treasured sword of yours, a peerlessly exquisite treasured sword, a treasured sword cannot be measured by food." As soon as the sword came out, Xijia's eyes became even more greedy.

Li Chongyuan smiled and said: "The chief said that this saber is a treasured saber, so what if I exchange this saber for a thousand catties of grain?"

"Ah!!! You really want to exchange the precious sword for our food?" Xijia couldn't believe it.

Li Chongyuan nodded, "Since I took out this knife, it must be true."

"Okay, okay, okay, I'll send someone to bring the food to you now." Xi Jia was in a hurry, seeing Li Chongyuan nodding to confirm the matter, he got up and called for someone to go.

Seeing Xijia's anxious appearance, Li Chongyuan looked back at Xingba and the others, "Did I lower the price?"

"Xiao Langjun, it's not cheap to exchange a knife for a thousand catties of grain." Xingba said.

With the beginning of this matter.

This is a matter of course for bartering.

A knife can be exchanged for a thousand catties of grain, which is something that Tang State could not even imagine.

But here, let alone one thousand catties of grain, I guess Li Chongyuan would agree to two thousand catties of grain.

However, the amount of food Li Chongyuan wanted was not small, and there were many types.

a few days later.

Through bartering, Li Chongyuan harvested thousands of catties of corn, hundreds of catties of pumpkin seeds, and thousands of catties of sweet potatoes.

even.

Li Chongyuan also received thousands of catties of potatoes and thousands of catties of peppers.

Li Chongyuan really did not expect that there are potatoes and even peppers in this tribe.

After a few days, Li Chongyuan took a look at the crops planted by the indigenous people, and exchanged all the crops that should be exchanged.

Of course, Li Chongyuan also paid for one hundred ordinary knives and one hundred bows, as well as several bolts of ordinary cloth that Li Chongyuan gave Xijia.

For this reason, Xijia, as well as the entire tribe of Xijia, were immersed in laughter after they got Li Chongyuan's knife and bow.
