Chapter 551 Peace is the most precious thing(1/2)
"I have a friend. She has only done laundry and cooking for many years, but she sings very well and looks good."
Ni Tou smiled and looked at the silent young man sitting opposite.
"Later she sang in the Kingdom Theater in Resurrection City. She had no worries about food and clothing and was loved by many people. People gave her flowers every day."
"Everyone has their own talents and talents, it just depends on whether they can find a place to use them."
Ni Tou said while looking at the other person.
The young man is wearing a raincoat woven from palm leaves and a straw hat with a frayed brim. He is between eighteen and twenty-five years old. His hands are broad and strong, and there are old wounds on his fingers. It can be seen that he works often.
The young man had a hunting knife tied to his waist, an animal skin backpack on his back, and straw shoes on his feet. There were many cracks and solidified mud on his toes and insteps.
He didn't drink a sip of the ale in front of him.
Nitou continued: "You look strong and capable, and you may be suitable to be an explorer or a bodyguard. Both goblin merchants and Yao scholars have been recruiting these two types of people for a long time."
"If necessary, I can help you introduce it."
"You know, this is what the Brotherhood does here, sending the right people to the right place for mutual benefit and everyone making some money. So if you decide to cooperate with us, we will also charge you after the completion of the matter.
A commission."
At this time, the young man finally spoke.
He spoke a rare jungle language, and Nitou had already prepared some refreshing mint, so it didn't sound like a problem.
"I am Zaha, the chief of the "Time Tribe"."
The young chief said in a formal tone: "I am here on behalf of the Time Tribe, hoping to get help from the Brotherhood. If we can get assistance, we will be extremely grateful."
Nitou has heard of this tribe, but only once.
The various ethnic groups in the Kingdom of Secrets live in scattered places, and each group possesses secret skills and does not have much contact with each other. There are many small tribes and groups, and the brotherhood may not have any contact with each other for hundreds of years.
"What kind of help do you want?" Nitou asked.
"I want money."
There was no embarrassment on Chief Zaha's face, but one of perseverance and determination. It was as if he was ready to give everything and didn't care about things like face.
"There are fewer and fewer people in the Time Tribe. Everyone has fled because of various temptations from the outside world. The witch doctor has also run away. My sick child has died, my brother has also died, and my wife is still sick."
The young man said: "I want money, and the tribe needs money. Only with money can we find doctors and cure diseases."
"I know the Brotherhood, I know you, Brother Mudhead, I hope you can give me money, I am willing to use this in exchange."
The younger brother standing behind Ni Tou moved his lips and frowned, but still didn't speak.
Because what Zaha used to exchange money was a dead branch.
This branch does not show any mysterious power. There are bunches of hair wrapped around the branch. The hair is knotted and looks like some kind of ancient spiritual ritual tool.
"This is the hair whip of the Time Tribe. It is the most precious treasure of the tribe. It contains the strength and soul of generations of tribal warriors. I will exchange this for money."
According to Zaha, there is currently only one person in their tribe who is sick. He hunts outside all year round and has avoided the disease.
"good."
Ni Tou carefully took the hair whip: "I will use this treasure as a mortgage to borrow money. When you have money in the future, you can withdraw it at any time. Forget about the interest, I will just make friends with you and the Time Tribe."
He stood up and walked to the cabinet nearby, took out a stack of papers and placed it in front of Zaha.
"This is a city bond, which is more useful and circulated than gold. The sea shells, even the Yao tribe's doctors, are enough to invite you to your tribe for treatment."
Zaha grabbed the money and looked at it carefully, his face showing hesitation and embarrassment that he had not seen before.
"..."
Ni Tou guessed that the other party probably didn't know how to read, and then said: "Dou Zi will go to the doctor with you. He is familiar with the doctors here."
He looked at his younger brother behind him: "Go, take Chief Zaha to Youyi Road by the temple, and try to find Yao doctors. They are rich in experience."
"yes, Sir."
Junior Douzi nodded and walked to Zaha: "Mr. Chief, please follow me."
Before leaving, Zaha glanced at Hair Whip with some reluctance.
…
The Brotherhood's shops are peaceful again.
Nitou put the hair whip into a special box and classified it with other collateral.
He grabbed a handful of melon seeds, opened the latest edition of "Ben Daily" with a cup of Zhoudao tea, and started to eat slowly.
There are two eye-catching news items in the newspaper.
"The last dance of the Green Forest Dance Company tour: Miss Tatar will choose one lucky audience member to have dinner with"
"A huge counterfeit drug case solved: Black Temple is officially restricted from entering the country"
Ni Tou had heard of these two pieces of news before they were announced to the public.
After several major associations settled in the Resurrection Kingdom, they all had contacts with each other and were often invited to attend some events. In addition, Count Siddal would also come to talk to them and learn about the situation.
It may be difficult for the aborigines here in the Resurrection Kingdom to imagine that the Green Forest is actually a ferocious group full of barbarism and blood.
But here in the kingdom, they are popular dancers in the dance troupe.
Siddal's original suggestion was listened to by Green Forest.
Salt Lady Tatar brought people to the Resurrection Kingdom, and with the help of Siddal, she quickly gained recognition from the theater and completed her first stage performance.
Ni Tou was also invited to watch that time.
how to say
The unrestrained and lively dance of the salt girls is accompanied by the cool and eye-catching novel folk costumes. The bells on the wrists and ankles are ringing, accompanied by the small drums played by the salt girls, plus the natural vitality and youthful bodies of the forest girls.
, forming a wonderful scenery that is unforgettable.
They only need to remove the bloody parts and perform the ritual of praying and reciting incantations. The dance they have practiced for many years is enough to make people dizzy.
On the stage, the salt girls are passionate, spinning and dancing tirelessly. Off the stage, they also show a kind of innocence and cheerfulness that does not understand the world, and they are even more loved by the audience.
They soon became household names in the kingdom, touring various cities.
The tour of the Resurrection Kingdom will end in Resurrection City. At the next stop, Tatar and the others will rush to the distant Sand City, where they will continue to win the love and flowers of new audiences.
Today, Nitou and Tatar have become familiar friends, and they often meet, chat, and drink tea.
The direct reason lies in the special management of the Brotherhood.
After Ni Tou came to this strange kingdom, he found that the local area lacked a dedicated civil society organization that could serve as a bridge to the occult kingdom.
After all, Earl Siddal represents the official kingdom and only has time to deal with some big problems. If some minority groups and associations encounter trouble, they will have no way out.
Nitou believes that brother is very suitable to play this role.
First of all, the Brotherhood is a local force in the Kingdom of Secrets. Since they started out as farmers, their reputation and credibility are quite good.
Secondly, the Brotherhood has a large manpower and is always good at gathering information, running errands and uniting groups.
The brothers approved the idea and let Nitou go ahead with it.
Now, the Harvest Brotherhood is more like an intermediary chamber of commerce in the Resurrection Kingdom.
Nitou provides merchants with the workers and guards they want, guides people who have time to work but can't find a way to make money, and connects various organizations and groups.
Some people need to recover debts, some people are in urgent need of money, and some people want to exchange things, they can come to the brotherhood.
Most importantly, the Brotherhood has also maintained close cooperation with the Resurrection Kingdom.
The Green Forest Dance Troupe has unlimited glory, but it will also encounter trivial troubles, especially in the base camp of the Secret Art Country. Because now the girls there want to become dancers and join the dance troupe, and they work hard to practice dance and musical instruments. The local
There is a serious shortage of manpower and the strength has dropped sharply.
The Brotherhood has become Green Forest’s best partner.
Even Tatar lamented to Nitou: "We look glamorous, but you are the ones who are really living the best life. Now the goblin business group has a lot of requirements, and we have to dress according to their requirements, so we can't even
Picking your nose, farting and lifting your skirt in front of others... eh, it's even more tiring than bloodletting in the past."
She put one foot on the chair, grabbed the wine bottle and drank heavily, then wiped her mouth with the back of her hand, a happy expression on her face.
"It's better to stay here. You can drink whatever you want!"
"Come on, if you are a brother, have sex with me."
"...I have to discuss business this afternoon, let's have some tea."
"It's boring!"
…
Ni Tou came back to his senses and suddenly thought that he had to go to support him tonight. The next time Tatar came back might be ten years later.
Let's dress up formally.
He put on a new white lining, a short leather jacket, a new pair of trousers and a belt, shaved his beard with a knife, and washed his hair.
The person in the mirror feels much more refreshed.
Nine years have passed, and in Ni Tou's memory, the silent and dull follower has become as distant as when he was a child.
Now he has become a big brother, starting to teach others how to do things, and he also dares to speak and speak out.
His words are useful and many people will listen.
Ni Tou would think of Iron Feet from time to time. If he was the one left behind, then it would probably be Iron Feet standing here.
And Camilla, whom he had never forgotten in the past, was the friend Nitou had talked to Chief Zaha before. She had also achieved great success in singing.
Camilla soon married a goblin merchant and stopped singing. She went to settle in the Republic of the Two Serpents Merchant, and lived a life without worries about food and clothing with her husband.
