Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 536
  At the same time, here on the grassland...

Since coming to this world and establishing a new tribe, the Centaurs have been living here for almost a month.

In this winter grassland, it is not easy to obtain enough food purely by hunting.

This wave can only be said to have come at the wrong time. In any other season, the prey on this grassland would be much richer. As the centaurs of the hunting race, their lives will naturally not be so difficult. .

Although Drogo is a little slow on certain matters, he is not stupid.

As he went to the Centaur tribe every day to learn inherited skills, he could somewhat tell that the lives of his fellow tribesmen were a little tight.

So he had an idea and came up with an idea to Diak.

That is to capture prey alive and trade with them.

"Chief, think about it. If you catch a wild horse, the little meat won't be enough for the whole clan to eat. But if you catch the wild horse alive and sell it to us, Dazhou, then at least..."

Speaking of which, Drogo couldn't at least come up with something right now.

He originally caught these and exchanged them for arrows and weapons, but he really never exchanged them for food.

But for this reason, he would be embarrassed if he couldn't at least order something.

So I just said it bravely.

"At least, at least we can replace one or two trucks of potato flour, and then we can make it into a big cake, enough for the whole family to eat for several days."

Here in Diack, they don't think that meat is definitely better than flatbread.

Just like Drogo said, the meat of a wild horse is not enough for their whole family to eat for one meal, but if it is replaced with potato flour, it can feed them for several days.

As the leader of a clan, what choice should I make when faced with this kind of problem?

But Diack also had hesitation in his heart.

According to his idea, it would be difficult for everyone to get some food after winter. When they arrived, Zhou Xu had sent a lot of food to help them settle down.

Considering the alliance between them, Zhou Xu could be said to be extremely benevolent and righteous to them.

Under this premise, capture wild horses and other animals to trade with Da Zhou for food? Will the other party really be willing to change?

Diack was relatively close to Drogo, who was of the same race, and he expressed his concerns at this time.

In this regard, Drogo showed a carefree expression...

"If the patriarch cares about this, I can help you ask."

Hearing this, Diak suddenly looked grateful. If this matter could be solved for him, it would undoubtedly be of great help to them.

Faced with gratitude, Zhuo Ge waved his hands repeatedly, and at the same time did what he said, and ran back to the village to tell Ye Jinghong about the matter.

For other forces, the food problem in winter may be a big problem that is difficult to solve, but for them, the Great Zhou, this is not the case.

They had just carried out the autumn harvest in the autumn of the Great Zhou Dynasty and harvested a large amount of grain. At this time, the grain was plentiful.

Of course, he would definitely not tell Diak directly about this.

He's just a little crazy, but not stupid.

Although he and Diack are of the same race, he is a citizen of the Great Zhou Dynasty. From this point of view, Diack and the others are also outsiders, and naturally they cannot reveal their family background.

Even before telling Ye Jinghong about this matter, he was a little unsure.

If you think about it carefully, they now have to provide support to the frontline troops. At the same time, after the autumn harvest, the next grain harvest will not be until summer at the earliest, and the grain harvested in summer is limited, and the main grain harvest is still in autumn.

Thinking about it this way, they don't seem to have that much money.

Thinking of this, Drogo began to feel uncertain. But he didn’t care. Anyway, he just came to ask, and the worst he could do was to be rejected.

But what he didn't expect was that Ye Jinghong agreed very simply.

This surprised Drogo...

"Don't you need to ask your Majesty for instructions?"

"Your Majesty has a lot of things to do, so just write a report on this small matter later."

Ye Jinghong paused.

"What did you say to Patriarch Diak at that time? Tell me every word."

Drogo didn't think much and just said what he said at that time.

When he said that a wild horse can be exchanged for one or two carts of potato flour, his voice became obviously weak.

He was a soldier. Since he surrendered, he has basically stayed at the military camp in Prairie Village. He doesn't need to worry about such things on weekdays. He has no contact with them and has no idea about them.

How does he know how much one or two trucks of potato flour is worth? How much is a wild horse worth?
  As everyone knows, after listening to his narration, Ye Jinghong almost failed to suppress his lips.

Potato flour is not valuable. One or two carts of potato flour is indeed a lot, but its value is still incomparable to that of a wild horse!

Of course, the premise is that the wild horse is healthy. If it is a disabled horse, it will not be of much value to them.

"uh-huh!"

He coughed heavily and suppressed the urge to laugh. Ye Jinghong expressed with a straight face...

"Chief Diak and the others are our important allies in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Our Great Zhou Dynasty has always helped our allies whenever we can."

Having said this, Ye Jinghong's voice paused.

"Let's see, for a healthy wild horse, we can exchange them with two loads of potato flour. In addition, if they want to exchange for some other food, I can also make a list for them. When the time comes, Just change according to the list."

Drogo was immediately relieved after receiving this answer.

Although they are not a family, Diak and the others are still his kindred after all. If possible, Drogo still hopes that Diak and the others can live well.

After receiving Ye Jinghong's clear answer at this time, Drogo couldn't wait to bring the news to Diack.

Looking at Drogo who quickly disappeared from his field of vision, Ye Jinghong's uncontrollable lips finally turned up. At the same time, he secretly admired their king's miraculous calculations.

At first, their king personally took the Centaur clan to settle down in the clan, and gave him instructions after returning.

He said that if the Centaur clan wanted to trade with them in the future, they would just agree.

Of course, their things are not completely open to the centaurs, and are limited to trading food.

At that time, Ye Jinghong felt a little strange and couldn't help but ask...

"How can your Majesty be so sure that the Centaur clan will definitely come to trade with us?"

Faced with this problem, Zhou Xu smiled slightly at that time.

"I have reached an agreement with Chief Diak. Next, Drogo and the others will go there to learn the inherited skills of the Centaur clan."

"The centaurs are a nomadic race, and their main way of obtaining food is hunting. Hunting in winter is not easy, so their lives will definitely not be easy."

"Drogo has made deals with us before. He has been there for a long time. He must be able to see the situation of the centaurs. In addition, they are the same race. Drogo must also hope that they can live a better life. When the time comes, , he will most likely mention this matter, just wait and see."

Look, it’s not just that they were pinched to death by their king.
