"This is the lowest price. You also know that Wangjiazhuang checks salt tightly. If it is found, it will be demoted to a serf at the least, and lose its head at the worst." A Han vendor shook his head and spoke in front of a bronze-skinned woman wearing animal clothes.
"But, we paid so much ginseng, pearls, and animal skin, but we could only get two cloth bags of salt." The woman with bronze skin was very dissatisfied. She spoke in a mouthful of Liaodong Chinese, which was not very fluent, and the wooden spear in her hand threatened the Han vendors.
"It's useless to threaten me. Kill me. Who will smuggle sea salt to your tribe in the future?" Although the Han vendors were a little scared, they still pretended to be calm.
"Can't you add more?" The woman with bronze skin still wanted to bargain.
"If you insist on this, I won't come next time. I risk losing my head but cannot make huge profits. Who would be willing to do such a thing?" The Han merchants were tough and refused to lower the price for the other party. He had long seen that the salt of these people in Shanlinjian had almost finished eating, so they were so urgent.
"Oh..." The woman with bronze skin had no choice. After all, the other party was the only Han vendor who dared to behead by the Wang family in Liaodong and secretly sold sea salt to the Jianren tribe.
In desperation, the woman with bronze skin had to agree to such a deal that was obviously losing money.
After the caravan of private salt vendors left with several carriages, several tribal warriors asked in the ravine voice: "Class leader, why did he leave? Haven't given us salt yet!"
The tribal warriors didn't understand Chinese, so they didn't know what the transaction just now, and they thought that the private salt vendors would run away without giving them salt.
However, the bronze-skinned woman picked up the two cloth bags in her hand and sighed: "He has given it, and the salt is here."
"What?!"
"Class leader, are you kidding? So many goods have only received two bags of salt?"
"Class leader, was that Han tyrant businessman who deceived you with sweet words? I'll catch up and chop him up now!"
"Okay, shut up! The patriarch never makes mistakes in doing things, he must have difficulties." At this time, another tribal warrior who seemed to have a higher status scolded everyone.
Everyone had no choice but to follow the bronze-skinned woman to return to the tribe, but they kept muttering along the way.
On the way back to the tribe, the woman with bronze skin was always frowning.
Her name is Ayina, and she is the new leader of the Nuolan tribe among many tribes of Jian people.
Not long ago, the old leader of the Nuolan tribe could not bear the pain of not eating salt, so he led the tribe warriors to the Chenyue Salt Field in the Wang family in Liaodong to grab salt.
As a result, the tribal warriors wearing animal clothes and holding wooden spears were killed by the heavy armored iron cavalry of the Wang family in Liaodong. Later, they fled back to the forest. They relied on the advantage of familiarizing themselves with the forest terrain that the soldiers of the Wang family in Liaodong dared not chase them.
However, the old leader was seriously injured by a Wang family soldier named Li Xi in that battle. He died of excessive injuries shortly after returning to the tribe.
"If you are afraid, you will kneel down obediently, men will be servants for us, and women will be fun-good!
"Hahaha!"
As soon as he returned to the tribe, Ayana heard someone calling out outside the village of the Nuolan tribe.
"It's the Kor'ao tribe, those madmen, they came again. Do you think our old leader will be bullied if he dies?" A tribe warrior behind Ayana was very angry. He looked at the Kor'ao tribe Jian people in front of him, and the palms of the spear tightly squeezing blue veins burst out.
"Class leader, kill them! Ten years ago, the despicable Korao people invited our superior clan leader to visit their tribe. Our superior clan leader kindly accepted the invitation, but they actually tied up our superior clan leader and gave it to the Liaodong Wang family, so that the superior clan leader was executed by the devil king Kang Lingchi. This blood feud must be repaid with blood!" Another tribal warrior from the Nuolan tribe became more and more angry as he spoke, and he wished he could rush up and kill all the people in the Corao tribe Jian now.
"Don't say it." However, Ayana thought more far away. Looking at the Kor'aobu Jian people who were calling, she turned to the tribe warriors around her and explained: "Thirty years ago, our Jian people were originally a family, but the devil king Kang used the excuse of trade to poison the king of our Jian people. Since the death of the king, we have split into many tribes that are independent and fight each other under the instigation of the Liaodong Wang family. This day is over!"
After saying that, Ayana's eyes were extremely firmly added: "The people of the Jian people must unite!"
"I don't want to unite with the despicable and shameless Kohl's people." The tribal warrior just now retorted disdainfully.
"well……"
Hearing the complaints of the warriors of his tribe, Ayana knew that her idea was good, but it was so difficult to realize it. The tribes of Jianren fought each other for decades under the instigation of the Wang family in Liaodong. The tribes had long been full of blood hatred between the tribes. It was not easy to let go of their hatred, unite to the outside world, and resist the increasingly powerful Wangjiazhuang.
Thinking of this, Ayana brought the tribe warriors to the crowd and said to the Korao people who were calling out: "I, Ayana, are the new leader of the Nolan tribe, my friend, what's the point?"
"Hahahaha!" The yeller laughed, then pointed his spear at Ayana and said disdainfully: "I have heard that the men of the Nuolan tribe are all wastes, and I actually let a woman be the leader. I thought it was a rumor before, but I didn't expect it to be true. Little girl, kneel down to be my female pet. I will let your Nuolan tribe go, otherwise, I will kill all the men in your tribe."
"asshole!"
"Don't insult our leader!"
"Class leader, let me go, I'm going to fight with them!"
The tribal warriors glared at him, and one of them was about to rush out, but was stopped by Ayana.
"The people of Jian don't kill the people of Jian!" Ayana dissuaded him, and then said to the yeller: "If you are here to visit, I am Ayana very welcome, but if I am here to provoke, I am Ayana is definitely not a coward!"
"Just you?" The yeller said disdainfully.
"Do you want to try?" Ayana was very confident.
"Hmph!" The yeller snorted coldly, then said to Ayana: "Call out the man in your tribe's best fight and fight me one-on-one, and use the Jianren to resolve the dispute. Do you dare?"
"Of course!" Ayana then added: "But it was me who came out, Ayana!"
"Although you are a woman, I will not show mercy." After the caller said that, he performed a ritual ceremony for Ayana. This is a ritual ceremony for inviting the other party to fight one-on-one.
Ayana put the two bags of sea salt in her hand in the hands of the tribe warriors behind her, and then greeted the caller and said politely: "Please!"
"Let's go!" At this time, the yeller suddenly remembered something and said quickly: "If you lose, you will have to give us five bags... No! Ten bags of sea salt are given to us!"
"What?"
"Korao's dog thing, are you crazy!"
"Since our Jianren's salt farm was taken away by Wangjiazhuang, it has been short of salt for several years. Where did we get ten bags of sea salt?"
The people of the Nuolan tribe were angry and cursed at the callers.
"I accept it!"
However, Ayana was still very confident. Although the Nuolan tribe now does not have ten bags of sea salt at all, she could not defeat, absolutely not!
"Class leader!"
"leader!"
The tribe members wanted to dissuade him, but Ayana waved her hand and smiled, "What, don't you know my strength yet? Do you think I will lose?"
After saying that, he stopped caring about the emotions of the tribesmen and smiled lightly at the caller and said, "What if you lose?"
"I am a noble Koh Ao native, how could I lose?" The yeller first subconsciously expressed disdain, and then said, "If we lose, I will give you twenty bags of sea salt. How about it? Ten more bags than you, so it's very generous."
"No, we don't want sea salt." Ayana shook her head.
"What do you want? Do you want our noble Kor'ao people to be slaves for you? Humph! Stop dreaming!"
"I am not that kind of person. I, Ayana, will never enslave my fellow Jianren! If you lose, you will form an alliance with our Nuolan tribe and fight against the Liaodong Wang family in the future."
"The leader of the Nuolan people, do you know what you are talking about? Our noble Kerr'ao people are ally of the Wang family in Liaodong. How could you want to form an alliance with us to deal with Wangjiazhuang?"
"Do you really think that the Liaodong Wang family regards your tribe as an ally? Are they an ally or a pig and sheep waiting to be slaughtered? You know better than me, Ayana. Besides, there are fewer Jianren tribes who have been killed by the Liaodong Wang family? Do you also want to end up like this?"
"Hmph! I don't understand the fallacies you said, it depends on the tricks!"
