I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 498
It is impossible for the Central Plains people to understand how strong the Mongols' belief in the Changshengtian and the Wolf God is.

I can't understand what a totem means to a Mongolian or a tribe.

The nomadic people on the grassland can gather together to form a larger tribe because of a lake, and can also form a huge empire that once swept across Asia and Europe because of a common sacred mountain.

A statue of a wolf god, although not enough to bring the fragmented Mongols back to the top of the world, is somewhat a hope.

It is a hope that unites everyone and is no longer scattered.

Azaha is a person with some brains, otherwise he would not be entrusted with such an important task by Alutai.

Although this time he was tasked with purchasing food, cloth, salt and other materials for the winter, but after seeing this statue of wolves howling at the moon.

He keenly felt that this was a hope for the revival of the declining Alutai Department.

If Alutai can really regain the trust of the tribes in the grassland with this thing, its value will be immeasurable.

A mere tens of thousands of taels of silver, and a mere few thousand cattle, sheep and war horses are insignificant at all.

He also believed that as long as he could bring the wolf god back to the grassland, the Grand Master of Alutai would definitely forgive him and even reward him.

As soon as this price came out, even the people from Duoyan Sanwei, who had always been the closest to Azaha, began to hesitate.

Although they have accumulated a lot of wealth through doing business with Daming, 7 taels is not a small amount, and it is impossible for them alone to get such a large amount of money.

Even if this thing is snatched in the end, it is still a questionable question whether it will be owned by that tribe in the end.

Just when they were hesitating whether to continue to follow up, the Wala people who had been silent before suddenly made a move.

This person is the one that Prince Wang introduced to Shen Lingfeng earlier.

Because Wala is located in the northwest, and because it has always been in collusion with the Ming Dynasty, it has not received many attacks.

Today's strength far exceeds that of the Tatars, who were almost crippled by the Ming Dynasty.

This person cost 8 taels as soon as he made a move, which not only aroused the exclamation of the crowd again, but even Azaha showed an incredulous look in his eyes.

"Wuhamu, what are you doing!"

Wuhamu is a thin young man who looks more like a Han Chinese than a thick Mongolian man.

But this is also normal, because Wuhamu was weak and sick since he was a child, he was sent to the Central Plains by his father for treatment a long time ago.

Living in the Central Plains since he was a child, Wuhamu has completely abandoned the attire of the grassland people and dressed like a genuine Han son.

If it weren't for the small braids that are unique to the Mongolians, no one would associate him with the Mongolians.

Although Uhamu's tribe is not the Oara royal family, it is also a very powerful tribe, and it has won the favor of the current leader, Tuo Huan.

As the direct heir of the tribal leader, Wuhamu is often rewarded with joy.

Coupled with the fact that Oirat has already belonged to Ming Dynasty in name, and a person who understands Han culture is needed to mediate many things in the bureau, Uhamu's status becomes more and more important.

Now Wala has not officially broken with Daming, and is in the honeymoon period. As one of the representatives of Wala, Uhamu is often the guest of honor at the royal banquet.

For a person like him, it is really easy to spend tens of thousands or even 10,000+ taels of silver.

However, no one could have imagined why Wuhamu was also interested in this group of wolves Xiaoyue.

In the eyes of outsiders, he is an existence with a heart for Daming.

Wuhamu ignored Azaha's exclamation, but said lightly,
"I like this statue very much too. My study is short of decent decorations! Since this is a treasure competition here, the highest bidder will get it. If you are dissatisfied, Azaha, you can bid a higher price!"

He didn't quarrel with Azaha like Duoyan Sanwei did, but his indifferent and dismissive tone still made Azaha feel humiliated.

It's just that as soon as he thought of continuing to raise the price, he couldn't help but think of what the national teacher said to him before he left.

"Although it is important to go to the Central Plains to purchase supplies this time, what is more important is to find out the true reality of Daming at this time.

We are currently communicating with Oirat. If everything goes well, we hope to work with Oirat to completely wipe out Daming and regain our rich land.

You may encounter various difficulties in the capital, if there is something that cannot be solved, you can go to Wuhamu! "

Azaha also knew that Wala and Tatar had fought against each other for decades, and the hatred had long since gone deep. It was extremely difficult for the two families to unite.

Although he wasn't stupid, he still couldn't figure out why Wuhamu would jump out at this moment and fight the wolf god with him if he didn't bother Wuhamu at such a critical moment!
"Don't he know what this wolf god represents to the tribes on the grassland!"

Maybe it was because he was too excited, or maybe it was because Wuhamu's tone made him feel offended, or maybe it was because he had already been released from Haikou before, and he didn't want to lose face at this time.

Although the price of the statue of Wolf Xiaoyue had seriously exceeded his expected price, he still quoted the highest price he could offer in a low and deep voice.

"9 taels!"

I thought that since I had paid such a high price, Wuhamu would retreat in spite of the difficulties, but I didn't want to, Wuhamu said lightly, as if money was not money at all,

"10 taels!"

Now Azaha has completely gone berserk,

"Wuhamu, what do you mean? Do you want to see our two families fight each other again!"

His words were already threatening, but Wuhamu was still indifferent.

With the sound of the wooden hammer of the third lady, under the admiration of the crowd and Azaha's eye sockets almost bursting, this thrilling battle finally came to an end.

However, Wuhamu unexpectedly became the final winner, which actually made Li Tian feel very strange.

Wala and Tatar intend to unite, and Li Tian knows the news. In this case, it's fine if Uhamo, who represents Wala, doesn't help Azaha, but he shouldn't stop Azaha.

Seeing that Wuhamu left the venue without any nostalgia after getting the statue, Li Tian felt that this person's move was not simple.

So, Li Tian whispered to Jiang Bao beside him,

"Go find a spirited person and follow Wuhamu. You must find out who he has been in contact with tonight."
