"My race originally started from the south, and only later moved north. Now I lead a team of people to return to their homeland." Snorri simply answered the Cathay people's question.
"What about you, who are you and why did you come to Southland?"
"I am ordering Hu Zhengde, a small comprador of the dragon fleet." The translator first introduced himself, and then he pointed to the person in power with a dark blue dragon pattern painted on his clothes and continued the introduction.
"This is Zou Qilin, the governor of the southern branch of the dragon fleet." Zou Qilin saw the translator looking at him, stood up and bowed his hand to Snorri.
"Dragon fleet? Is that the navy of Cathay?" Snorri asked.
"Yes, we are all governors of Weidong provinces and admirals of the dragon fleet, subjects under the command of Yanglong Yinyin. Perhaps you have never heard of the name of Princess Yinyin. She is the daughter of His Majesty the Dragon Emperor and the Queen of the Moon. Daughter, the dragon girl who rules the south."
"Dragon Emperor, Moon Queen, Yang Long..." Snorri repeated several of the names. He needed some time to understand and absorb them.
"I heard about a Binlong - Zhaoming, how is he doing now? Is he still in charge of the country?" Snorri thought of the information provided by President Bullock of the Engineers Guild at that time.
"Are you talking about His Majesty Zhaoming, the Governor of Weixi Lie Province, who is in charge of Tongdu Shangyang and guards Changya Road?" Linghu Zhengde showed a surprised look, but he gave himself an explanation in an instant.
"Hahaha, that's right. You Westerners understand that we in Cathay have gone through the Longtooth Road, and you should also know His Highness Zhaoming. He is still the Lord of Shangyang. Although our father-in-law has transformed into a human body and walked the world, His true body is still the immortal true dragon.”
Snorri could feel Linghu Zhengde's respect for the dragon gods. As rulers, they should be widely loved by the people, at least their troops are quite loyal.
"Binlong, Yanglong, are there other dragons besides these two?" Snorri asked next. He remembered that President Bullock also mentioned another name.
"Always visible in front of people, those who control the four directions include the governor of Weibei provinces, Changyuan Sentinel, and Biaolong Miaoying; the governor of Weinan provinces and the Tiantang Mountains, Zhulong Liqian; and the governor of central provinces He is also the prime minister, Bilong-Yuan Bo, and there are others." Linghu Zhengde had great enthusiasm for Longzi and Longsun, and he introduced it enthusiastically.
"Linghu, don't say too much! Let's ask why he's here!" Before he finished speaking, Zou Qilin interrupted his subordinates. He spoke in Cathay. Snorri could understand it, but at this time he pretended It never hurts to not understand.
"Ah, you just said that it is a good thing that you have returned to your hometown. Congratulations!" Linghu Zhengde quickly changed the subject. "But what brings you here? It's quite a long way from the mountains."
"I came here to sign some trade agreements with Lord Atik. Win-win cooperation and mutual exchange of needs can speed up development. I heard the skinks discussing that there are strangers here, so I stopped by to have a look." Of course Snorri would not Saying that he came here specifically for the people of Cathay, he gave a watertight reply.
"Where are you from? Karak-a-Karaz, Karak-Kaderin or Karak-Var?" Linghu took a scrawled hand-drawn map and asked while looking at it.
"This is Karaz-a-Karak, the Eternal Peak, the capital of the Kingdom of the Mountains. I am Draz, the son of the Lord of the Mountains." Snorri corrected him. Many humans in the empire have city names in dwarven languages. It's called unlucky, let alone the people of Cathay. In order to facilitate communication, many tribesmen will use the common language to refer to their cities.
"Oh, then, do you still have contact with there?" Linghu Zhengde looked very excited.
"Of course, we have two caravan trips every month!" Snorri gave an affirmative answer.
"They came from the end of the Tusk Road! They are still closely connected there!" the translator turned to report.
"Very good!" Zou Qilin patted the armrest of the chair, trying to control his joy. "The products here are not very rich, and the four-legged snakes do not wear clothes, so they roam the world naked. We have been suffering for a long time!"
Then Linghu Zhengde warmly invited Snorri to stay overnight in the Bazaar, and prepared some oriental delicacies for him and his men. Looking at the chopsticks in his hand and the stir-fried vegetables on the plate, Snorri attributed all the abnormalities to "not being used to eating."
The Guards did not see through the reason behind the Cathayans' enthusiasm, attributing it all to their wealth and hospitality. The highly concentrated distilled wine from the East was much more potent than the fermented fruit wine of the Lizardmen, and they were soon drunk.
"Huh, I didn't expect that I would have to squat on the wall for one more day!" Snorri had something on his mind and didn't drink much. He took out the earthly barrier and wiped it gently. The runes on it were triggered, and he disappeared in the eyes of outsiders. His body shape was reduced and his movements were silent.
Snorri easily bypassed several guards. These Cathay soldiers were wearing Zha armor, which was made of iron armor leaves connected with leather strips or nails. But Snorri could not judge more information based on this alone, and the Warhammer world was not able to apply the history of his previous life.
"This trade route must be controlled by us!!"
Snorri heard Zou Qilin's voice. It was obvious that this Governor was not only a caravan leader, he was also a very powerful general.
"That's natural! Our caravan is going to turn around this time!"
"Back then, Tu Anping chose this place, but what was the result? It wasn't as safe as it was, but he only made so little! I didn't even mention going to Nippon, the caravan going to Indy made much more!"
"Thousands of years ago, when that Lahmia was still around, I don't know how much money I made from selling muskets! It is said that the natives there pawned the entire city-state for the money they owed and it wasn't enough to pay back! Why is it gone now?"
The managers of the caravan also drank a lot, and they gathered together to discuss. Snorri thought quickly. Cathayans wanted to contact the old world through him, so why didn't he want to connect with Cathay? But once you know what they think, you can take the initiative.
"It's a pity. I still have too little information. I don't know what status these people have and what price they can offer." Snorri felt a little regretful and silently walked back to his guest room.
"Five silks, fifty lotuses or... my God, how are they doing this trade!" Early the next morning, Snorri was wandering around the market.
Since the lizard people do not use precious metals as currency, this Bazaar is still in the barter stage. He cannot accurately calculate the price of Cathay's goods because his trade with the lizard people is also based on barter.
