Fifty thousand taels?
Wasn't it five thousand taels?
Ye Xiu was stunned for a moment, but on the surface, he still reached out and took the stack of silver notes very naturally. The other party didn't notice anything unusual.
However, in his heart.
Ye Xiu had a new understanding of these profiteers.
An item worth 50,000 taels of silver was actually being bought for 500 taels of silver. My God! How black-hearted was this! A hundred times the profit?
Fortunately!
Ye Xiu didn't directly say 5,000 taels just now. He only made a hand gesture.
Otherwise…
When would he know that his tiger skin was actually worth fifty thousand taels of silver?
"But is this tiger skin so valuable?”
"Or is the purchasing power of silver in this world just average?”
Ye Xiu wondered.
.....................
He sold his goods at a price that exceeded Ye Xiu's imagination.
He had already accomplished half of his goal for this trip.
Therefore, the people of the Han Dynasty were very happy.
Ye Xiu then suggested to the person in charge of the merchant group that they leave with the merchant group and head to the big city.
When the head of the merchant group heard this, not only did he not have any doubts, he even revealed an " I knew it " expression. This made Ye Xiu very curious about what he had imagined.
"Little brother, how about this?”The person in charge of the caravan thought for a moment and suggested,"I agree to let you follow our caravan, but you have to be responsible for protecting this caravan along the way. If you encounter any trouble, you must not run away alone.”
"Of course! When we reach our destination, I can pay you two thousand taels of silver. What do you think?”
Because they imagined that Ye Xiu was a martial artist from outside, the person in charge of the caravan didn't lower the hiring fee. Two thousand taels was indeed the market price outside.
He didn't mean to give Ye Xiu less on purpose.
Ye Xiu was counting on the caravan to take him away. Even if he encountered any danger along the way, he couldn't abandon the caravan and escape alone.
After all;
For someone like him who was unfamiliar with this place, if he was alone in the wilderness, the probability of death was too high!
Therefore:
Ye Wang didn't even think about it and agreed to the suggestion of the person in charge of the caravan.
"Sure."
Ye Xiu nodded.
When the merchant group leader heard this, his face lit up with joy.
After all, with one more expert joining their caravan, there would be one more guarantee along the way!
When Ye Xiu saw the expression of the merchant group's manager, he thought to himself.
" It seems that my current strength should be considered a small expert in the outside world. Otherwise, this guy wouldn't be so happy to have me join.'
"Of course!"
" It's possible that this guy misunderstood something. He can't possibly think that I killed this tiger with my own strength, right?'
Ye Xiu muttered in his heart.
But even if it was a misunderstanding, Ye Xiu couldn't be bothered to correct it.
So what if it was a misunderstanding?
Anyway, he had already achieved his goal.
That was enough.
....................
After confirming that he was going to leave with the merchant group.
Next, Ye Xiu patiently waited for the merchant group to finish dealing with Dragon Mountain Village.
At the same time;
He also took some time to bid farewell to his father, Xiong Da, and his brother, Xiong Shan.
This was because he had long known that Ye Xiu was leaving.
Therefore, the two of them did not have anything to be reluctant about.
His old father only gave a few more reminders to Ye Xiu to be careful outside the village and to come back if he couldn't survive.
Meanwhile, Xiong Shan joked that with Ye Xiu's departure, he had become the number one hunter in Dragon Mountain Village again.
After bidding farewell to his only two relatives in this world.
Ye Xiu packed his things and prepared to set off.
There weren't many things.
It was just a burden.
There were a few sets of clothes inside.
Ye Xiu also brought a hunting bow and a hunting knife.
He had been using that weapon for a month, so he was quite familiar with it.
However, he was quite envious of the weapons of the guards in the caravan.
Those guys were obviously much stronger than his hunting knife.
It was a pity.
The caravan didn't carry any weapons for sale. Otherwise, with Ye Xiu's current wealth, he would definitely buy a better weapon to defend himself!
It was past three in the afternoon.
The trade caravan had also finished its business in Dragon Mountain Village.
Zhang Yong, the person in charge of the caravan, found Ye Xiu and told him to set off.
"Manager Zhang, where is our next destination?”
On the way, Ye Xiu asked Zhang Yong curiously.
"The next destination is a place called Li Family Village. Little Brother Ye, have you been there before?"”
Because he was about to leave Dragon Mountain Village, Ye Xiu used his original name, Ye Xiu.
That was why Steward Zhang called him Little Brother Ye.
"Li Family Village? I haven't been there."
Ye Xiu shook his head.
Indeed, he had never been there. He had never even heard of it.
After all;
For the past eighteen years, he had been a sickly person who rarely went out. How could he know about the Li Family Village?
However, the people in their village might know. After all, the Li Family Village might not be too far away from their Dragon Mountain Village.
"It's a village slightly bigger than Dragon Mountain Village, but it's not as rich as Dragon Mountain Village.”Manager Zhang shook his head and said," To be honest, if it wasn't for the idea of earning as much as possible, I wouldn't have wanted to go to a place like Li Family Village. There's no profit to be made.”
No profit?
It wouldn't be tens of times more profitable, right?
Ye Xiu pursed his lips in his heart.
He didn't believe a single word that Steward Zhang said.
This guy:
He was very black-hearted!
They were the ones who had tricked the villagers.
In fact, just thinking about it, if there really wasn't any profit to be made, would Steward Zhang be able to bring the caravan to the Li Family Village?
After all;
This wasn't some business that would make a loss.
He wasn't stupid if he didn't earn money!
