Chapter 1131 The Strange Customs of the Snowy Land(1/2)

The closer we get to Chawa City, the more and more Tibetans get wind of it and come!

There have been no caravans on the plateau for too long. Even if they have money and goods, they can't turn them into the supplies they need.

Many Tubo people no longer care about the expressions of Liang Chuan's team, even if they have dark faces, they still want to try their luck!

Tea makes them extra excited!

Although Liang Chuan and the others have repeatedly stated that these goods have already been booked, they will still propose an irresistible price in an attempt to impress Liang Chuan and the others!

Liang Chuan was a little shaken several times, but Ye Fan tried his best to persuade him to stop.

If you promise others on this plateau, you must keep it. Otherwise, offending someone is like offending a wolf. He will bite you and won't let go!

The Tibetan people would circle around the horse team's goods. Without permission, they would touch and open them to see if they were real tea leaves!

They need these tea leaves and soju so much!

Ye Fan promised the Tubo people he met on the way that if they brought goods next time, he would leave some of them for these tribes and deliver the tokens on the spot. Only in this way can he exchange the trust of these strangers.

, it can also dispel their obsession!

Dali people have not dared to set foot on this plateau for a long time!

Because the Tubo people have bad habits, everyone has been deceived by these people for a long time, and naturally they know their style. Over time, the business credibility has deteriorated a lot.

In the end, the Tubo people themselves will have to swallow the consequences of this evil!

Liang Chuan and his party did not dare to come to the plateau to deceive the Tibetans. Liang Chuan even warned anyone in the caravan many times not to use knives, small pendants and other objects to defraud the Tibetans of anything.

There are many products such as Dzi beads and beeswax on the plateau. For the Tubo people, they are not as useful as two pounds of tea leaves from Buribu. If there is such an exchange opportunity, they will not hesitate to exchange it! However, this

If some knowledgeable Tubo people find out about this, the fraudulent behavior will leave a bad memory in the minds of the Tubo people!

Never fool the Tubo people. Although they are not as knowledgeable and understanding as the Dali people, they can develop such a powerful nation in such a harsh and cruel environment on the plateau. They have their own advantages and are stronger than any other nation.

The body must be strong, and their brains are very strong. The credibility of a businessman is only once, and you can be deceived by them once. Next time, you may face a butcher's knife.

Of course, this is for ordinary Tubo people. For those Tubo nobles who are as cunning as poisonous snakes, they are the most difficult people to deal with! They have more privileges than ordinary people and have more opportunities to contact the outside world.

There are many, so they not only have the good bodies of ordinary people, but also have a pair of eyes that have seen the colorful world. It is difficult to fool them! The more noble people are, the more evil they are. So, come to the plateau

, if you can do business with ordinary people, don't touch those dignitaries, they are the ultimate evil people!

Then again, people on the plateau may not eat beef and mutton, but the Tubo people can't help but drink tea!

We sent over a dozen groups of people one after another, and everyone came with joy, but finally left empty-handed!

When they arrived at Chawa City, the group simply skipped entering the city and headed east directly to Mangkang.

At this time, there was only one river separating Mangkang and Chawa, the rushing Lancang River.

The closer you are to Mangkang, the more different the colors of the sky and the earth are. The mountains here have a hint of red, and most of the soil in the mountains of Hexi is red soil. It is said that the local pink salt in Mangkang is inseparable from this soil! On the east bank,

Normal earth color, but it can produce snow-white fine salt. This kind of fine salt is more expensive locally, because the locals will lose weight if they eat pink salt, and being thin is not a good thing on the plateau. Only thick fat can make you lose weight.

Resist the cold between heaven and earth!

Mangkang is also called Mardun, the name of the Tubo people!

The Lancang River has been running for countless years, and the bridge on the river is still an iron-locked bridge made of huge and thick chains. As soon as a group of people crossed the bridge, a pair of people and horses came to greet them from the opposite side. The difference was that the other Tubo people were

When they heard the news, they seemed to be waiting here, knowing that Liang Chuan and his party were coming! They all dismounted, butter tea and tsampa were prepared by the bridge, and there was also a group of women holding white hada in their hands!

This is the highest standard of etiquette for welcoming guests!

At this time, Quzhen was standing at the head of the crowd, wearing a red and white jacket and half-sleeved robe. Her long black hair was like a waterfall, reflecting the luster in the sun. Her skin was still dark, but

At this time, people look more energetic!

There are two old men standing next to her. It seems that they are the protagonists today!

'Guests from afar, welcome to our Maldun!'

Liang Chuan and Ye Fan looked at each other, and they both got off their horses. The cavalry crossed the river and stopped!

These should be the people who connect with me!

'Miss Quzhen, I'm sorry we're late!'

Liang Chuan took a look at the girl. Since she came to the plateau, the strong ultraviolet rays made the blush on her face even more obvious!

Qu Zhen looked at Liang Chuan with a twinkling big eye and said with a strange look: 'As long as you are willing to come, it's never too late. This road is not easy to walk after all!'

After saying that, the black girl pointed to the two old men beside her and slowly introduced: 'This is our great elder Tsering from Mardun, and this is the second elder, Deji! They are here??????

?????????Have been waiting for three days!'

Liang Chuan quickly dismounted, saluted the two old men, and said repeatedly: "I'm sorry, we have no idea about the journey. Although Qu Zhen told us the approximate time it would take, we were still delayed on the road.

I'm so sorry!'

Ye Fan got off his horse and stood side by side with Liang Chuan.

'This is my good friend, Ye Fan, he is also my business partner!'

Tsering and Deji are both very thin, and living in the sun for a long time has made their skin look older than that of ordinary people. However, their sophisticated faces completely conceal their excitement!

After so many years, they finally waited for the caravan to come!

The things that countless Tubo people worked hard for were actually accomplished by a girl!

'Guests from afar please accept our most sincere wishes!'

After saying that, the two elders put a pair of white hats on Ye Fan and Liang Chuan respectively, and then gave each of them a bowl of fragrant butter tea. Liang Chuan did not hesitate and drank the oil tea in one gulp.

Such joy made the two Tubo elders even more happy!

'You must be hungry. Let's eat some tsampa to satisfy your hunger. We have prepared delicious food in the tribe to welcome you!'

Zanba is very similar to fried noodles, but it is fried first and then ground. When you want to eat, add a little butter to the bowl, add tea, mix it with it and eat!

Liang Chuan was lucky enough to see his roommate eat this food, and he enthusiastically invited him to try a few mouthfuls. After a few mouthfuls, he felt very full. It was precisely because tsampa contained a large amount of fat that he was less hungry.

Eat multiple meals and drink plenty of tea to relieve this feeling of fullness!

Ye Fan ate a few symbolic mouthfuls. He had been pampered since he was young, and being able to eat was the greatest respect for these Tubo people. The Tubo people looked at the light nobility on his body and knew that he was definitely not an ordinary person, and they were not forced.

I won’t offend a distinguished guest over such a trivial matter!

Liang Chuan asked Ah Yue to take a few bites. Salt or sugar must be added to this tsampa to enhance its flavor, otherwise it will have a astringent and stagnant feeling that is difficult to swallow!

Ah Yue picked it up as a pastry and ate several bites in a row!

The strange thing is that this little girl didn't suffer from altitude sickness this time. She rode on the rouge horse all the way and was as happy as a little princess receiving a gift!

Liang Chuan is most worried about her!

If you have altitude sickness, there is no chance of finding any doctor on this road. In other words, if you are sick, you can only use your own body to fight it!

Fortunately, in the past few months, Liang Chuan had given Ah Yue the most adequate nutrition in her life, and finally managed to improve her body!

The best food was prepared for her along the way, including fresh cheese made from goat's milk and dried meat. Even the water she drank was soaked in "cheap" weeds like Cordyceps sinensis! This was a great supplement.

, the little girl has obviously grown much taller in a few days, her cheeks have gained a lot of flesh, and she looks gorgeous every day!

When your physical fitness improves, you will naturally get less sick!

Not to mention Ah Yue, just the Nong brothers and several others have gained a lot of weight after following Liang Chuan for so many days!

Putting down the bowl of tsampa, the two elders Tsering and Deji led Quzhen to open the way, followed closely by Liang Chuan and Ye Fan, leading the horse team to slowly set off towards Mardun!

When the sun sets, the red glow shines on the snow-capped mountains, as if putting a cloud crown on these snow-capped mountains, adding a touch of style to the snowy areas!

Finally arrived, the entire Mangkang City is pitifully small!

A tributary of the Lancang River rushes through the middle. There are very few residential houses. The entire tribe is spread out along the river valley. The total number of people in the entire tribe may not be as large as the people in Baijia Village!

There are layers of salt fields on both sides of the Taiwan Strait!

The morning light on the plateau penetrates the floating clouds and shines into the depths of the Lancang River Canyon. The Jiada Village of Mangkang Salt Well on the riverside wakes up in the morning light. The Tibetan women in the village get up early and carry wooden buckets to the salt springs on the riverside to collect brine.

Come to irrigate your own ancient salt field. A day's work starts with drying salt. Day after day, year after year, you go to the salt field. In this way, the ancient method of drying salt in this mountain and valley????????????

????The place called Mangkang Salt Well has lasted for hundreds of years!

Under the skylight and cloud shadow, the salt field brine is rich and glowing with sparkling silver, like pieces of clear and transparent stained glass, reflecting the strange deep valleys and floating clouds and sky.

The wonders of the red and white salt fields on both sides of the river valley are the crystallization of sunshine and wind: the brine is bathed in the sun and wind, and the red salt fields appear on the west bank of the Lancang River. After drying, they condense to form "peach blossom salt". The crimson color is like the peach blossoms blooming along the Lancang River.

Like the bright blush on the cheeks of a Tibetan woman. The white salt fields on the east coast condense and dry out "snowflake salt", which is as clean and pure as ice and snow.

Although he was backward, Liang Chuan was shocked that there was such a place to dry salt on the plateau!

Ye Fan himself was dumbfounded. Is this the production place of the legendary pink salt?

The two elders led Liang Chuan and Ye Fan to the largest house in Mangkang. The floor inside was made of flat cowhide as a rug. People could sit directly on it without feeling any discomfort from the cold!

There are also warm Pulu hanging on the wall, and a charcoal fire is burning in the room, making people not feel cold at all!

'Guest, please take a seat!'

The two elders speak Chinese better than Qu Zhen, they are very authentic!

Several people around Liang Chuan sat on the lower edge, while he and Ye Fan sat on the upper edge. It was the first time for the group to come to the snow-covered plateau of Tubo, so they were inevitably uneasy. However, looking at the appearance of these Tubo people, they seemed to be knowledgeable and knowledgeable.
