Chapter 13 The Simple Transaction

ps: The toothache is almost dead, and my cheeks are swollen and hot as if they are on fire. The entire gums have become red and swollen. I haven’t had a good sleep for two days, and the update has become unstable. This is my fault. I took advantage of the improvement today and write more.

Yuanshan is a large mountain, big enough to separate the powerful Tubo people from the Song people. Of course, there is no way out, and no matter how steep the mountain is, there will be a small path to pass. As a mountain citizen, Lai Ba is the best pathfinder.

It only took half a month to go there. When Lai Ba left a few ugly bullheads on the Woniu Stone, he was full of confidence in Yun Zheng's plan. He did as arranged by this immortal-like boy. The vicious Tubo people did not eat themselves, but instead gave themselves the greatest courtesy.

It doesn't matter if you don't speak well. Whenever you see the Tubo people, you will give them snow-white salt blocks, then stretch your arms and bend your waist down, and you will immediately receive a reward and accept their warm and outrageous reception.

The mutton was very good, but it was not cooked. The butter was warm all over. What he missed the most was something else. Naxi's wife was good and his daughter was also good. Unexpectedly, their bodies under the leather robes were so delicate and soft. It was really nothing to the strong Lai Ba when they came twice a night. When they got into their arms in the middle of the night, they were just worried that Naxi, the Tubo brother who was sleeping beside him, would jump up and kill him. As a result, they slept all night. Naxi was slept soundly. Lai Ba didn't believe that Naxi couldn't hear it because his wife shouted "Jinzhu" loudly and even shouted so many times.

(Note: The custom of treating guests with wives and daughters in Tubo people still existed until liberation. This is a custom determined by their nomadic life. Alone for many years and marriages within a small range will cause a serious decline in the quality of the entire tribe. This is a fact, it is not that the author is talking nonsense or deliberately belittles this nation. In general, they can live fiercely in the worst natural environment and have a strong body.)

Lai Bajie was lying on the sunny slope and waiting for Yun Zheng's arrival with peace of mind. There were five yaks eating grass at the foot of the mountain. This cow with thick fur all over his body was only known for what the young man had to do with it. Although one cow was a little sorry for him to fall to death, there was no way. That road was too difficult to walk, and it was already his greatest ability to bring five cows back.

I hope Yun Zheng is not dissatisfied. Lai Ba now thinks that the Tubo people are really good. There is no one among the hosts who are so generous that they take out their wife and daughter to entertain guests. Grandma, after a glance at the black boss's wife last time, he got two teeth off by him. It's better for Tubo brothers. Apart from the fact that Naxi's wife and daughter are a little more interesting, they really have nothing to be picky about.

It’s simple to do business. The Tubo people don’t know the numbers, or they pretend they don’t know the numbers. When they put three kilograms of salt in front of the strongest yak, they signaled that Naxi could take away the salt and wanted to take away the cattle, Naxi was very happy.

Therefore, the subsequent transaction was more convenient. As long as three pounds of salt blocks were hung on the horns of the cow, Naxi would automatically tie the rope with a mane braid to the cow, take away the salt quickly, and hand the rope to Lai Ba. The remaining salt was not enough to exchange for a cow. So Lai Ba generously gave the salt bag and the remaining salt to Naxi, and the roll of linen he brought to the two women who served him overnight.

The consequence of this is that when Naxi sent himself on the mountain road, he could still hear Tubo women standing on the meadow singing sad songs, which made Lai Ba feel uncomfortable.

"Five cows? Or such a big cow? Dear Lai, it's not bad. It seems that our transaction has been successful. You can specialize in this business in the future. Give me all the cows you get. I will give you an extra pound of salt and a piece of linen for one cow."

Looking at Yun Zheng touching the sky and looking at the endless joy, Lai Ba's last bit of worry disappeared, and the first step was to complete. The rest was to accumulate the most primitive accumulation as Yun Zheng said. As long as he could maintain the business path and kill those Yuanshan who were all in trouble, the life in the mountain would be more nourishing than those on the plains.

"Yunda, I'm going to go home and set off immediately and go to the meadow again. This time I bring two brothers and try to exchange more cattle and sheep. But I don't have the goods, so it depends on you to buy them."

Yun Zheng turned around and said to the lazy Lai Ba: "This is naturally. There is no reason why you go to the mountain and I have to squeeze oil from you. Doing business requires everyone to make money to do it for a long time.

We don’t deceive the Tubo people, Lai Ba. If you remember this, you must never fool the Tubo people. Although they have low intelligence, those who can live in the snow must have their own unique features. Strong, strong, and despised are some of the qualities. As long as you deceive them, you will never want to get their forgiveness in your life.

Of course, this is for ordinary herders. For those cunning heads like poisonous snakes, it is better to be more sensible. The more noble people are, the more sensible they are, the worse they are. So, you must be vigorously avoid dealing with those people. Remember, you are not very smart either."

Lai Bada laughed and said, "Of course I'm not smart enough, aren't you still there? I'll leave it to you when I encounter something I can't solve. I'll forget it. Just pave a lifelong road for the mountain people with peace of mind."

Yun Zheng walked over and patted Lai Ba on the shoulder and said, "If you have this mind, you are already a saint. As long as you don't let me down, I will not let you down. This is a guarantee.

I am a slippery person and don’t easily make promises. Once I make promises, I will try my best to keep them. At least you can rest assured that I will not do anything to you in the face of interests. We’d better still be friends when we’re dying.”

Lai Ba laughed, and rudely hugged Yun Zheng in his arms and hugged him tightly, then planned to leave. Only those who did not make any promises would reaffirm the promise. Lai Ba still knew this truth.

"Next time to do business, don't leave the cow's back empty. They must have a lot of cow's leather, that's a good thing. We can use that thing for leather armor and leather boots in Dasong. As long as there is, you can buy it, the price will be 30% of the cow's price, and there is also Angong beef yellow. This thing is very expensive, and you must get it back if you have it."

"I understand!" Lai Ba agreed and crawled into Lin Mang and disappeared. In a blink of an eye, he poked his head out of the grass and asked Yun Zheng: "Do you know what "golden bead" means?

"I know, what do you mean by the Bodhisattva who saves suffering? Why are you asking this?"

"It's okay, just ask." Lai Ba smiled strangely and crawled into the grass again.

Bagua and Yun Er and Yun San were guarding next to the Woniu Stone, waiting for Yun Da to come out of the mountain. Seeing Yun Da split into the grass and sticking his head out, smiling at them, he took out the five-headed, singular cow from the grass like a magic trick.
