But then again, their Beast Tribe is poor.
If they want a better life, they need a reasonable price.
Moreover, since the earthquake, there hasn't been a single tree as thick as an arm in this area for miles around, except for these rocks.
It's quite desolate; apart from small animals, there aren't even any large wild boars or bison.
"Don't worry this time, the price is negotiable."
"One hundred catties of these green stones, one seashell."
Upon hearing the offer, Mu Youran smiled; it was within her expectations.
Although this product is expensive to produce, the transportation and handcrafting processes result in significant losses.
"Okay, deal!"
"You should prepare three thousand catties of jade stones first."
When Chief Wang Shan heard that she had agreed so readily, he was so excited that he almost danced with joy.
Quickly have Gao Pi tell people to prepare stones.
Gao Pi quickly ran away when he saw this good opportunity.
You know, three thousand catties sounds like a lot, but you have to understand that it's made of stone.
Three thousand catties is just a small piece; it only takes two ordinary orcs to move it.
If it were a beastman with his strength and abilities, one person could easily pick him up.
He ran back to the tribe and let out an excited roar.
"Brothers, come with me to the back mountain to move stones!"
Upon hearing this, everyone excitedly gathered around.
Someone asked curiously, "Gao Pi, are they really going to buy those stones from the back of our mountain?"
Gao Pi said excitedly, "Yes, let's hurry up and get it, they need three thousand catties!"
Upon hearing the number, everyone was shocked and held up three fingers: "So many!"
What are they going to do with it?
Everyone was curious why someone would want to buy those stones that were nothing more than inedible and incompatible stones!
He even personally went to their tribe.
Although I don't know what they'll do with it, they must have a use for it since they came all the way here to buy it!
You Ran asked curiously, "Gao Pi, how much meat and animal hides are they offering?"
Hearing this, Gao Pi smiled smugly: "Are you kidding me? They're not exchanging meat and animal hides, they're buying it with seashells!"
"One hundred pounds of stones for one seashell!"
"What!"
Upon hearing the price, everyone's eyes widened, knowing that one seashell required two animal hides.
That 100-pound stone, about the size of a stool, was worth a seashell!
What kind of astronomical price is this?
"Let's go, let's go quickly!"
These three thousand catties are equivalent to thirty seashells, worth sixty animal hides, which is much more than what they can earn by hunting now.
Everyone rushed to the back mountain.
However, while some were excited, others were quite puzzled, wondering why the female would be willing to pay such a high price for these broken stones.
Does that mean these stones are worth far more than this price?
If that's the case, then giving them only one seashell is really too little.
Upon reaching the back of the mountain, Gao Pi immediately instructed everyone to get to work.
Mu Youran quickly went over and instructed them to handle it gently.
It would be bad if these jade pieces got hit and developed cracks.
Luo Bai and Ying Yao usually handle these things on the side, so they naturally know which is the best and which is the second best.
They were all helping out.
However, some orcs saw something amiss in this action, and it seems they were right!
This thing is very valuable!
However, given how valuable these items were, they were only given one seashell for every hundred catties. Thinking about this, they were somewhat displeased.
One of the wolf-orcs exchanged a glance with his brother beside him, and they knew what was going on.
He glanced at Luo Bai, who was helping them move stones on the other side, then immediately let go of his hands and stepped back.
The sudden turn of events nearly caused Luo Bai to trip over his foot, so he quickly pushed the stone in front of him aside.
Looking up, I saw them all backing away in unison; it was clearly intentional.
Pointing angrily at them, he shouted, "What are you doing? Do what you want, or get out!"
Mu Youran, who was standing nearby, witnessed this scene and quickly ran over to check Luo Bai's hand anxiously.
Are you alright?
Luo Bai shook his head: "Luckily I'm strong. If it were any other orc, I probably would have been smashed!"
At this moment, Chief Wang Shan also rushed over and angrily rebuked the males who had used underhanded tricks.
"What the hell do you mean? Are you trying to kill me?!"
"They are honored guests of my Beast Tribe. If you harm even a hair on their head, you can all get the hell out of here!"
Chief Wang was furious, knowing that if You Ran had done this deal well, there might have been another chance.
But if they mess this up, they won't make any money this time, and they'll suffer from cold and hunger again this winter.
Moreover, they were the benefactors of the Beast Tribe, and these hateful males were clearly doing it on purpose.
He usually likes to use his cleverness, but he didn't expect to ruin his own life at this crucial moment!
However, his roar was completely ignored by the males.
The leader of the wolf-beastmen said indignantly, "Chieftain, I feel this is unfair!"
"That's right, Chieftain! Why should we only get one seashell for every hundred pounds of stones we weigh!"
"Exactly! The fact that they're willing to buy this again means it's very valuable. This price is unfair!"
These were actually the thoughts of the other orcs as well, but since it was something the chieftain had decided, they just kept quiet and did it; saying more would probably offend the chieftain.
