Moyes only woke up at noon. When he woke up, he felt his head was groggy. He shook his head to wake himself up. He said in his heart that wine is more powerful than beautiful women. Beautiful women can make men sleep until the next day, but wine can.
He let people sleep until the third day. He thought about this group of Han soldiers again, thinking about how to trade with the Central Plains people. They were eager to get the Central Plains people's iron tools.
The reason why the tribes in the Eastern Islands have been bullied by the Fuso people is because they have just entered the Bronze Age. Their most advanced weapons are copper knives and swords. Many soldiers even use stone spears and stone hammers. Since I met Yu Wei
After seeing the iron sword, Moyes realized that it was a crowbar that could move the world.
Therefore, he constantly sent islanders from various Eastern Islands to search for the Central Plains, exchanged them for various iron tools through trade, and then transported the iron tools back to the Eastern Islands to make weapons. However, this method was too inefficient, and he needed to talk directly to the Central Plains dynasty.
He needs more iron tools.
Speaking of cavalry, Moyesgan was particularly interested in Zhang Xiaowu's horse-cutting sword, so he walked out of the wooden house and asked someone to invite Zhang Xiaowu. When he saw Zhang Xiaowu again, he asked the other person's name. He heard that it was Yi Guang, so he
Let people write it down and say that you are the second Central Plains person I have personally received. Zhang Xiaowu said that he was very interested in their writing. Moyesgan laughed and said: "My father invented the Tujia writing. He is called
As the creator of the Tuga civilization."
"Wait a minute, you said, dad?" Zhang Xiaowu asked in surprise, "Dad? It's pronounced baba?"
Moyes said: "Is there anything shocking?"
Zhang Xiaowu touched the beard on his chin and said, "It's not surprising. We Central Plains people call our father grandpa."
Moyes smiled dryly and said: "The pronunciation of grandpa is very difficult. Okay, let's get back to the subject. I still don't know what your status is in the Central Plains?"
Zhang Xiaowu thought for a moment and said, "I am an official responsible for completing some special tasks for the generals in the Central Plains, such as searching for the goddess fruit here."
Moyes nodded: "That means you can talk directly to your general?"
"Yes."
"This is best. I have a very good proposal."
"you say."
"I heard that you Central Plains people like treasures very much."
"Yes."
"The most treasures in the Bright Continent are treasures, such as this one." As he said this, Moyesgan took out a bag, opened it, and sprinkled the rubies, emeralds, and sapphires in the bag on the coconut mat, pointing at the pieces.
The pigeon-egg-sized gem said, "This is also our treasure, but I think you Central Plains people need it more. Moreover, we have many such treasures, but you rarely have them."
Zhang Xiaowu did not show greedy eyes, but said calmly: "The price of treasures lies in their rarity. When you really have a huge amount of treasures and they flow into the Central Plains, then they will not be of such high value."
Moyes scratched his head and thought for a long time before he understood what he meant. He couldn't help but clapped his hands and said: "Your words reminded me that indeed, in the Kingdom of Touga, it is not a treasure, it is just our trading currency. But I hope to use it
It is exchanged for some things from your Central Plains, such as iron pots, production tools, and even knives."
Zhang Xiaowu said: "There are also weapons."
Moyes laughed loudly: "It's really easy to talk to you. Now that you understand what I mean, you should know the purpose of my entertaining you."
Zhang Xiaowu said: "I can help you contact my general, but I cannot guarantee that this transaction will be successful, because for a country, iron and weapons are prohibited from being exported to foreign countries."
"It doesn't matter, I need you to establish a trading relationship with us. We will still have a long time together." Moyes Gan, worthy of being a generational hero, said boldly. He casually grabbed a handful of gems and stuffed them into his pocket and threw them away.
Go over and say, "This is a gift for you."
"The gift is too expensive and I cannot accept it."
"No, no, no, the gift sent by the Tuga cannot be refused, otherwise it means that there will be a duel."
"Then... okay." Zhang Xiaowu noticed that he was staring at his horse-cutting sword from time to time. He smiled slightly and put the horse-cutting sword in Moyes Gan's hand and said, "Please don't refuse this gift from the people of the Central Plains."
Moyes greedily stroked the sword and marveled at the magic of the iron weapon. He used his copper sword to slash at the blade of the sword, but only heard a click, and then the copper sword broke into two pieces. Moyes laughed loudly.
He laughed and asked: "How many such weapons do you have, can you sell them to us? I think my bravest warriors should use the best weapons."
Zhang Xiaowu said: "I have a suggestion. Is it okay if I exchange four steel knives for two prisoners of war?"
"Who is it?"
"One is the translator from Meinong Country, and the other is the commander here. Now they are both your prisoners of war."
"Why?"
"One of them is the person who took us out of Meinong Country, and the other is the brother of my maid."
"Oh, it turns out he's your woman's brother." Moyes laughed dryly, "No problem! But, I think you should wait for a while."
"Why?"
"Because my forward troops are attacking Mino Country. I will escort you away after I get the news."
Zhang Xiaowu was greatly surprised. This Tuga King Moyesgan had already attacked the Meinong Kingdom. It seemed that he couldn't wait to become the king of the world. He suggested that the two prisoners of war should be returned to him first, and he could wait.
Moyesgan ordered them to be delivered to the hands of the Han army.
When Heijiro Matsushita saw Zhang Xiaowu again, he was so excited that he almost cried. He expressed his gratitude repeatedly. Another young man with a beard was the commander of the army, Hideo Ogura. His eyes were a little dull, and he seemed to be frightened.
I still haven't gotten over it yet.
Zhang Xiaowu said doubtfully: "Is this Hero Ogura? What happened to him?"
"Others said that he witnessed two people being dissected alive, so..." Heijiro Matsushita pointed to his head, "and was scared to death."
"Ah? Frightened to death? A soldier commander was actually frightened to death?" Liu Ding and others couldn't help laughing, "How did he become a soldier commander? Is it because of his good looks?"
Matsushita Heijiro explained disdainfully: "In fact, it is because his father was the first to follow the king, so his family has always been treated favorably. This hero Ogura did become a soldier commander because of his background, and it was precisely because he was worried that he was not enough
Because he was strong, his father arranged for him to be a captain of the island guard on Jinura Island." He looked at Hero Ogura, curled his lips, and looked down on him, "If he was brave, as a captain of the island guard, he would have been killed long ago.
He died in battle."
"Tiger father and dog son." Zhang Xiaowu commented.
