Chapter 385 Overlord Clauses (Please vote and subscribe)
Then, these masked black-armored warriors pulled out a cold and gleaming metal weapon from the side of their horses and held it horizontally in front of them. Although it is unknown how this strange-looking thing is used to kill the enemy, just looking at the cold light emitted by the metal, it is known that
it is definitely very powerful. "You, you, what are you going to do? Don't you want more seeds?" Elder Shang suddenly felt like peeing.
"I want to, of course I want to, what you said just now is all right, we really don't have all the seeds here, and it will take several years to plant on a large scale, but why do I have to exchange my car with you?"
You Fu looked at Elder Shang with a smile, and then answered his previous question without waiting for him to speak.
"You must be thinking that if we kill you, we won't be able to get the grain seeds, right? No, no, no, you're wrong. Just now, our scout eagle has found your team, and they are not far from here, so why don't we just rob them?
You should have brought more than just a lot of seeds, the white salt used to compete with us, and the livestock exchanged with the nomadic tribes. I think if we rob you directly, the harvest must be more than what we get by exchanging with the car, don't you think, old man?"
Elder Shang was so scared after hearing You Fu's words that his face turned pale. He did gain the advantage and initiative in the negotiation, but he forgot the most fundamental point, that is, the relationship between the two sides.
The Xin tribe and the Han tribe were originally in a competitive relationship. Let's not talk about anything else, just take the white salt. There is an old saying that goes, 'People in the same industry are enemies'. Since the Xin tribe blocked the Han tribe's financial path, it was destined to be an enemy.
But from ancient times to the present, when negotiating with the enemy, the advantage is always in the hands of the party with higher military power. If
you can't beat me, then there is only an unequal and overbearing treaty. Who is talking to you about etiquette and morality, and you want to threaten me with some grain seeds? Haha, it's just a joke. "Then, is that giant bird yours? No, you can't do this. We are trading fairly. You can't just take our seeds. I didn't say I won't give them to you. We just want a car." Elder Shang looked at the cavalrymen who were like divine soldiers descending from the sky in panic, and said tremblingly, no longer having the situation of having everything under control before.
At this time, You Fu had already seen a caravan coming from behind Elder Shang.
"Fair? Then hand over the seeds honestly. As for the car, it's not that I can't give you one, but I have a condition. Unless you can agree, I will never let you go back alive. How about it, are you interested?" You Fu looked at the old man trembling in front of him with amusement, feeling much more comfortable than the other party's smug look just now.
"What conditions?" Elder Shang asked impatiently.
"First, your future trading range must retreat southwards by a month. If you come again next time, I will kill you every time I see you. Second, you must raise the price of white salt to the same level as ours, and the trading price must not be lower than ours. How about that? As long as you agree to these two terms, I can promise to give you a car." You Fu pointed his finger and explained to the other party.
You Fu may not even know that the two terms he proposed should be the first overlord terms in the world, and they are also two conditions that the Shang elders never expected and would never agree to. If
the Xin tribe's caravan activities retreat southwards by a month, then they will go directly back to the seaside. Why don't you just tell us to go home and not come back?
There is also the price of white salt. The quality of the Xin tribe's white salt is not as good as the refined white salt of the Han tribe. It can be popular on the grassland because of its low price. If the Xin tribe and the Han tribe sell at the same price, who will buy the inferior white salt of the Xin tribe? It is better to just tell them not to sell it.
"No, you can't do that. It's not fair. We just want to make a deal. We don't stop you from trading with other tribes, so you can't interfere with us." Elder Shang retorted.
"Oh? After I give you the car, do you want to use it to bring more salt to compete with us? Do you think I'm a fool?
I don't think it's unfair. Let's just fight. If we win, we'll take your food, livestock and people, and you have to abide by the two conditions I just said; if we lose, these vehicles will belong to you directly, how about that?" You Fu
looked at the team behind him that was getting closer and closer, and the bamboo bows and arrows on the team members' backs. He gritted his teeth secretly and decided that it would be a good idea to run away directly.
The warriors of the Han tribe looked very powerful. In the end, even if the Xin tribe could win, it would be a miserable victory. This was not a good thing for the Xin tribe. Instead of losing both sides, it was safer to run away directly. Although they could not get the Han tribe's car, the Han tribe would not get their food either.
Since the last transaction, when the team leader brought back a bunch of things from the Han tribe, all the senior leaders have developed a strong interest in the Han tribe. However, at this time, Elder Shang has no time to study the various magical things of the Han tribe. It may be a luxury to save his life now.
Looking at the team members getting closer and closer, as well as the grain seeds and a large amount of sea salt that were escorted, Elder Shang immediately shouted to the back.
"Run, run quickly, they are enemies, don't fight with them, quickly protect our goods and evacuate."
In this way, you will have no way to rob them. As for himself, as long as the grain seeds are still in the hands of the Xin tribe, he can use this to threaten the Han tribe. It should be no problem to save his life, Elder Shang thought so.
But things did not go as he thought. Just as he turned around and shouted for his team members to escape, You Fu also shouted the order to attack.
The next moment, 76 elite warriors with armor and horses rushed out in an instant. They passed by Elder Shang directly, without stopping, and rushed straight to the caravan behind them.
As they advanced, the heavy cavalry gradually opened up their battle lines, forming a horizontal formation with a distance of about two meters between each person. They held their sharp swords horizontally and charged towards the caravan of the Xin tribe.
There were more than 100 members of the Xin tribe who were escorting supplies. They noticed the special situation here before the elders issued a warning. The group of black-armored warriors of the Han tribe were too conspicuous. Their flashing weapons and flashing masks made it impossible for people not to notice them.
So they were prepared to be on guard early, and they had already grasped bamboo bows and bamboo arrows in their hands. When they saw the black-armored warriors of the Han tribe rushing towards them, they shot the arrows they thought were fatal without hesitation.
