"Why are these natives even stupider than those on Wo Island? They don't want so many good treasures, but they actually like those broken water bags!"
The navy officers curled their lips.
"This is normal. The natives are uncivilized and don't know how to make water bags. If they can't find a river when they go hunting, they will only be thirsty. With a water bag, this problem can be solved!"
Xin Sheng smiled and understood very well.
The natives have no money in circulation, so they have no concept of pearls and gems.
In their eyes, they are just some stones, far less real than water bags and daggers!
"The general is right. In addition to these jewels, we also exchanged a lot of spices with these guys. Look...!"
After saying that, Fan Kuai opened the bag, revealing a lot of spices, blinding everyone's eyes.
Especially Xin Sheng, his hands were trembling with excitement, "We found it... we really found it... there are really spices on this island!"
The purpose of their trip was to search for spices.
I thought I would have to search near this island for a while.
I didn't expect it to go so smoothly. Fan Kuai and a small team landed on the island and retrieved the spices!
"These are what I got in exchange for a pair of boots!"
Fan Kuai raised his head proudly and smiled.
At this time, everyone discovered that his feet were only covered with footwear and no shoes.
"A pair of shoes can exchange for so many spices?"
The navy officers' jaws suddenly dropped.
"Good guy, you're such a naughty kid. You've been wearing those shoes for two years, right? They're almost worn out. You're exchanging them with the natives for spices?"
"Yes, yes, I heard you say yesterday that you would throw away those shoes in a few days, but now you are using them to deceive the natives!"
After Wang Li and Yingbu heard this, they were envious and jealous.
Even if the worn shoes on his feet were thrown on the street, no one would pick them up.
By now, it’s become a treasure!
The spices in his bag weighed more than ten kilograms and could be sold for at least a hundred gold in Xianyang.
How many shoes can’t you buy?
"Are you in charge? The natives like it!"
Fan Kuai happily stuffed the spice bag into his arms and hugged him tightly, "General Xin, let me say it first. I exchanged these items with my own belongings. They are my private property. You can't confiscate them to me." !”
"Haha! Don't worry, kid...!"
Xin Sheng smiled and nodded, but did not refuse.
"General, can we also exchange with the natives?"
After opening this chapter, the eyes of the navy officers suddenly lit up, as if they had mastered the code of wealth.
"It's okay, but you absolutely can't change into nothing!"
The soldiers were neatly dressed when they went to sea. If they were all naked when they returned and passed through various counties in Daqin, wouldn't it make people laugh out loud?
He can't afford to lose this man!
"Oh! That's great!"
"Don't worry, General! We all brought a lot of luggage with us when we went out. At most, we only need a few changes of clothes!"
The navy officers cheered loudly and returned one after another to find the rags they didn't want, preparing to exchange them with the natives after going to the island.
"General, these natives can easily bring out spices, which proves that there should be a lot of spices on this island!"
Wang Li glanced at the island and said.
"That's right...!"
Xin Sheng nodded, glanced at the natives who were still bowing to them, and continued: "These natives should know the source of the spices, and we can ask them to take us there!"
"Yes! This is why I brought them back!"
Fan Kuai nodded repeatedly.
"General Xin, just now Lao Peng and the others said that these natives may regard the ship as a god and that's why they worship it. How about we use our strategy to bluff them?"
Wang Li rolled his eyes and suddenly had an idea.
"Bluff them?"
Xin Sheng was puzzled.
"Yes, if we force these natives to take us to find spices, they may not be willing! But if we bluff them, they will be willing to help us!"
These natives have been running around on this island for many years to make a living.
If we had their help, we would definitely get twice the result with half the effort.
Maybe I can get back to Xianyang before the Chinese New Year!
"Tell me?"
"We were all shocked when we saw the whistle of a steam train for the first time. Many people thought it was a monster and reported the case to the government! We can use the whistle and spray of steam ships to scare them. Let them be obedient and lead us to find spices!"
Wang Li said his thoughts with a wicked smile.
"Haha, you kid has really stayed with His Royal Highness for a long time, and you have learned so many tricks!"
Xin Sheng smiled helplessly.
He couldn't think of such a damaging method!
The most that can be done is to put the steel knife on the necks of those natives and force them to pass!
But this kid's method can make them take him there willingly!
"General, how about this method?"
"Haha! Come on, let's do this. Boil water quickly!"
Xin Sheng waved his hands towards the soldiers.
"Taking advantage of this gap, I will go down with some old clothes and worn-out bronze vessels, and communicate with the natives. I will scare them again later, and give them both kindness and power. It will definitely work!"
Fan Kuai seemed to suddenly remember something, and ran towards the cabin while shouting in a rough voice.
After a while, the boiler was boiled, and a puff of black smoke came out of the chimney.
"Woooo..."
Coupled with the roar of the whistle, the natives who were kneeling on the ground were really frightened. They knelt down faster and muttered something in their mouths.
But looking at his expression, he seemed to be praying for something very devoutly.
Peng Yue and Fan Kuai went down to negotiate with him with their things. After dancing, they threw everything in their hands away.
After the natives looked at the monster that could spit smoke and scream, they then looked at the old clothes and bronzes on the ground, and happily went to fight for them.
Although they are some old clothes, the kind that have been washed and faded, the natives are still happy to wear them!
Then Fan Kuai opened the bag containing the spices, pointed at the spices, took out an empty bag, made a picking gesture, and asked the natives.
"Ouch! I'm exhausted. It's really hard to talk to these people! I don't know if you understand them!"
With both grace and power, Fan Kuai said helplessly after some gestures.
"Who knows!"
Peng Yue was not sure either.
Because the natives kept blinking after seeing their actions.
Finally, there was a child who seemed to understand what he meant. He muttered something to the other natives. The natives suddenly understood and nodded to Peng Yue and Fan Kuai. They also imitated his actions, picking them from the trees and filling them in the air. in the bag.
"It's done!"
Seeing this situation, everyone on board was excited.
