Chapter 210 The Abandoned Tao Tribe
Hu Zhong wiped the oil off his chin, picked up the juice next to him and took a big gulp, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"What kind of fruit juice is this? It tastes so good?"
When the other males heard this, they couldn't help but laugh.
I heard that this Tiger Guard is Prince Yin's man. He is well-dressed and has a delicate complexion, but he has never eaten these things.
You know, they are almost tired of all these fried, grilled, stewed meats, and juices!
Qingshan came over with the pottery jar and said with a smile, "Eat more if you like."
Mu Youran put his cup aside and motioned Qingshan to pour some for him as well.
"Try to eat as much as you can. You probably won't be able to eat properly for several days tomorrow."
This was the first time Mu Youran traveled far away without a companion, and she had to do everything by herself.
By the time I made the bed, it was already late.
I slept until dawn, and after packing up, Ying Xiao and Hu Zhong were already waiting outside.
"Sister-in-law, let's go. Let's fly after we get out of the market."
Mu Youran nodded. Although it was the off-season here, there were still many animal hide sheds and passers-by around.
The Eagle's beast form is very large. If it starts flying here, the strong wind may blow away other orcs and cause unnecessary trouble.
She carried the small package that Qingshan had given her last night and said, "Let's go."
However, before they walked out of the street, they found several male orcs setting up stalls on the roadside, and they were all selling pottery!
The workmanship was so crude that no one wanted to stop and stay.
Moreover, these orcs were all dressed in shabby clothes. Mu Youran was very curious. How come so many people suddenly knew how to make pottery?
I walked over, picked up a clay pot and weighed it in my hand. Not only was it very heavy, but it also had many small holes on it.
"How much is this clay pot?"
The three of them were exceptionally well dressed, and Xia Tu noticed them before they even reached his stall.
But I didn't expect them to come to my stall to ask for the price, and I felt a little embarrassed for a moment.
Sitting on the ground awkwardly: "Only, only ten seashells."
Suddenly hearing the offer, Mu Youran looked up and met his eyes that revealed nervousness and shyness.
It's obvious that he is not good at dealing with people.
Although the price is half of what she sells, the quality is really worrying. No wonder those people are unwilling to buy it.
"This is a bit expensive."
Upon hearing this, Xia Tu became more and more uneasy, and his dark hands kept rubbing at the fur-losing animal skin skirt.
This price is already the lowest price. If it is any lower, they will lose money.
But he knew very well the quality of his pottery. It could not be compared with the bright red pottery in the Treasure House.
That's why he lowered the price, but he didn't expect that even after the price was reduced so much, still no one would patronize his store.
Finally someone came, he didn't want to give up just like that, he hadn't eaten meat for two days, he was so hungry~
"If you want, I'll sell you five seashells."
Hearing these words lacking confidence, Mu Youran was certain that this man not only had no business skills, but also spoke with some lack of confidence.
I don't know why such a person would come to do business.
"Which tribe are you from? I remember that only the Pottery Tribe and the Sunset Tribe can make this pottery."
Xia Tu slowly stood up: "We are from the Tao tribe."
As soon as these words were spoken, Mu Youran's eyes immediately locked on him. She had seen the orcs selling things in the Tao tribe before. Although he was not very good at doing business, he was not so dull!
Moreover, the price has always been controlled by the rat tribe. Why did it suddenly change like this?
"Hasn't the price in your Tao tribe always been stable? Why are you asking for such a high price now?"
Xia Tu was very panicked now. He had just started setting up a stall here and had never left the tribe before.
But after a lot of effort, someone asked for the price, and he didn't want to let them go just like that.
He quickly explained, "Before, it was because of the Rat Tribe, but now they're gone and no longer care about our Tao Tribe, so we have the final say on the price!"
As soon as these words came out, Mu Youran's heart suddenly moved: "Why did this rat tribe leave?"
"Doesn't that mean you don't even have a clan leader now?"
Speaking of this, Xia Tu also looked embarrassed, because now their Tao tribe is a mess, and it is a mess with a lot of debts. No one is willing to be the chief.
That's why it's a mess now. Even when making pottery, it's just a few good friends working together. They sell the pottery themselves to make a living.
Seeing him like this, Mu Youran finally understood. It turned out that the Rat Tribe was now dominating the Tao Tribe, and since they could no longer make any money from them, they simply abandoned them!
Suddenly, she thought of something and raised her lips: "I want all these pottery. Can you take me to your tribe to see it?"
Suddenly hearing this, Xia Tu's eyes lit up with excitement and a simple smile appeared on his face.
"Okay, I'll take you there right now!"
Mu Youran: "No rush, let's move these things to the Treasure House first and pay you first."
When Xia Tu heard the words "Treasure House", his hands that were packing pottery paused slightly, but only for a moment, and then he became more agile.
He had heard long ago that the pottery of his tribe could not be sold because the Sunset Tribe had come to Yunmengze, and the pottery they made was even more exquisite and beautiful than theirs.
Not only that, a shop called Treasure House opened here this winter, and its business is extremely booming.
This is why the Rat Tribe saw no hope in their Tao tribe, so they gave up on theirs, leaving the mess behind and running away.
Qingshan was cleaning when he saw Youran, Yingxiao and the others coming back.
"Why are you back?"
Mu Youran: "I bought some things from the Tao tribe. Please give them the money."
Xia Tu and the two males behind him who had not spoken a word looked at the clean and tidy shop with a layer of unstained red pottery. It was really much better than theirs.
The people coming and going were all orcs in bright clothes, but they were the only ones wearing tattered clothes, and they scratched the bluestone floor with their black toes in embarrassment.
"One hundred and thirty seashells."
Qingshan looked at the pile of things. Although they looked ugly, they were still pottery after all. How could they be worth only so little money?
However, since this was the price offered by the seller, he didn't bother to care.
Anyway, sometimes he didn't understand what You Ran did, so he just had to obey.
He counted out the money and handed it to Xia Tu respectfully: "Keep it."
Xia Tu was flattered by the gentle voice and the attitude of bending down to talk to him!
This feeling of being respected was so unfamiliar to him that he forgot to take his hand back for a moment.
If the tribesmen behind him hadn't reminded him, he would probably still be in a daze.
He lowered his head and said in a low, awkward voice, "Thank you."
"You're welcome!"
Qingshan smiled slightly. He was the shopkeeper here and had to deal with many people every day, so he did have some tact.
After receiving the money, Xia Tu immediately asked the other two orcs to go and buy animal skins and beast meat separately, while he stayed by Mu Youran's side.
Hu Zhong was very puzzled. Didn’t they say yesterday that time was tight and they had to go to the Ten Thousand Beasts Tribe early?
Why do you suddenly want to go to the Tao tribe now?
He whispered, "Princess, aren't we going to the Beast Tribe? If we don't leave soon, it will be dark soon."
Mu Youran looked at Xia Tu, who was anxiously waiting for someone nearby, and smiled slightly, "No rush."
When Hu Zhong heard this, his brows frowned instantly. Why is he not anxious anymore?
He felt that he was a little confused. This princess seemed to do things without any plan, doing things haphazardly.
I don’t know how she managed to subdue such a proud male like Prince Yin.
