Chapter 169: Green Tribe’s Chief had taken a big advantage
"Give it to him, and also give him these two pottery jars."
Han Cheng walked over at a mont of intense bargaining between the two parties. His gaze swept over the food brought by the Green Tribe and then landed on the primitive millet set aside by Eldest Senior Brother. After retracting his gaze, he spoke to Eldest Senior Brother.
Upon hearing that it was the Divine Child speaking, the Eldest Senior Brother halted the intense negotiation with the leader of the Green Tribe. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and his breath beca sowhat hurried.
Bargaining for traded goods was not an easy task!
Regarding the sudden arrival of the Divine Child and his decision to exchange the food brought by the Green Tribe, which wasn't of great quality, for a large jar and two pottery jars, Eldest Senior Brother felt sowhat puzzled.
Because the Divine Child had previously explicitly instructed him that pottery was exclusive to their tribe. When trading, they should try to exchange as much as possible for items from other tribes.
Eldest Senior Brother had always kept the Divine Child's instructions in mind and followed them faithfully in practice. So why did the Divine Child suddenly make such a decision inconsistent with his previous instructions?
Eldest Senior Brother felt confused, looking towards the Divine Child. He saw the Divine Child looking back at him, smiling and nodding.
Observing this, Eldest Senior Brother understood. This wasn't a decision made on a whim by the Divine Child. There must be considerations behind this decision that he hadn't thought of.
It wasn't appropriate to ask further questions at this mont, so he followed Han Cheng's suggestion. He instructed soone to bring a new and unused large jar over, placing it next to the two pottery jars, and inford the leader of the Green Tribe that they could leave the food, and all these items were now theirs.
The leader of the Green Tribe was montarily stunned by this unexpected turn of events. He hurriedly embraced the long-anticipated large jar after standing in place for a while. Then, he respectfully bowed to the candid and straightforward little Divine Child to express his gratitude.
"What's this? Do you have a lot of it?"
Han Cheng picked up two stalks of millet from the ground and asked the leader of the Green Tribe.
After hearing this, the leader of the Green Tribe felt a bit confused. He turned to explain his thoughts to Eldest Senior Brother, letting him convey the ssage to the leader of the Green Tribe in their language.
Serving as a translator, Eldest Senior Brother used a mix of their language and the God' language, along with gestures, to convey Han Cheng's ssage to the leader of the Green Tribe.
Once the leader of the Green Tribe understood the ssage, he thought montarily. He recalled the tasteless, ergency food his tribe had in considerable quantity near their settlent, which could barely stave off starvation in tis of food crisis. Feeling that there was nothing to hide, he honestly revealed this information.
Upon learning this news, Han Cheng suppressed the joy in his heart, and with a calm deanor, he spoke to the Eldest Senior Brother. He instructed Eldest Senior Brother to inform the leader of the Green Tribe that next ti they co to trade, bring more of this item and so hides and fur. They could bring fewer food items.
Understanding the intentions of the young child-like Divine Child, the leader of the Green Tribe beca even happier. He didn't expect to encounter soone so understanding. Compared to this Divine Child, the leader felt that the leaders he had dealt with in the past were truly despicable.
Han Cheng, who was almost unable to contain his laughter, was about to leave. The leader of the Green Tribe started speaking again, pointing to the food, tapping the large jar, and gesturing towards the entrance of the Green Sparrow Tribe's cave.
Seeing the expression of the leader of the Green Tribe, Han Cheng, who was on the verge of bursting into laughter, felt a slight pause in his joy. His expression turned sowhat gloomy.
It turned out that not only people from the modern world would push their luck; primitive people were the sa!
Han Cheng's mood was no longer as cheerful as before.
If the leader of the Green Tribe didn't know how to behave, they wouldn't trade with their tribe in the future.
With the millet seeds obtained this ti, given a few years, the Green Sparrow Tribe would certainly have a vast area of millet fields.
When the Green Sparrow Tribe faced developnt obstacles due to a population shortage, Han Cheng might use so ans, and when necessary, he might not be very friendly.
At that ti, among the neighboring tribes, the Green Tribe would undoubtedly be the first consideration.
"A large jar for cooking rice?"
After learning the leader of the Green Tribe's intentions from Eldest Senior Brother, Han Cheng appeared sowhat surprised. He didn't imdiately understand the reason behind the leader of the Green Tribe's actions.
Is this guy crazy? Why would he choose the old jar when there's a new one available?
Han Cheng's montary displeasure dissipated when he realized he had misunderstood the leader of the Green Tribe. Because of the millet the Green Tribe brought, Han Cheng didn't want them to suffer too much of a loss. At least, regarding the jar used for cooking, that was the case.
Through Eldest Senior Brother, Han Cheng inford the leader of the Green Tribe about the condition of the Green Sparrow Tribe's cooking jar, which was already worn out and not as durable as the new one. He hoped the leader of the Green Tribe would reconsider.
The leader of the Green Tribe, however, was firmly convinced that the Green Sparrow Tribe's ability to produce such delicious at soup was closely related to the pottery they used for cooking. Understanding Han Cheng's ssage, he beca even more determined in his thoughts.
With so cleverness, he misinterpreted Han Cheng's sincere advice, thinking that Han Cheng was reluctant to part with the old jar, and deliberately said that. During the trade, didn't everyone keep the best for their tribe and use the rest for exchanges?
The more Han Cheng refused, the more the leader of the Green Tribe thought the old jar was a good item and wanted it even more.
After this happened twice, Han Cheng had no choice but to let it be. He allowed the people to carry out the old, now blackened, large jar.
The leader of the Green Tribe was extrely pleased to see this. He felt that in this trade, he had gained a trendous advantage. He went over to the jar, tapped it, touched it, and circled it several tis with great joy. After that, he respectfully bowed to Han Cheng, the shaman and Eldest Senior Brother. He was particularly willing to show respect to Han Cheng, secretly thinking that they must have this little Divine Child present whenever they ca for future trades.
As for the leaders of their tribe, those guys were truly difficult to deal with.
The other mbers of the Green Tribe, upon seeing their leader exchanging the Green Sparrow Tribe's cooking jar, were all smiles. They were delighted because they would now have the opportunity to enjoy the extrely delicious at soup!
After completing the exchange, the people from the Green Tribe did not linger. Carrying the charred cooking jar and holding the two water jars, they quickly left the Green Sparrow Tribe, as if afraid that staying longer might lead to a change of heart from Han Cheng and the others.
