Banished to Another World

Chapter 290: Negotiation: The Land of Dwarf Heritage



At the beginning, The Dwarfs were very cautious, not timid, but had an awkward way of how to speak.

Yan Mo rarely warmly greeted The Dwarfs to eat and drink together. They all say that it's easier to talk about things at the table. Today, he will try to see how it works. Unfortunately, there is no wine, otherwise the atmosphere can quickly heat up.

Zheng came with Lang-Ma, Zhang and Gan Yu and her only son. The fire was surrounded by more and more people. The other leaders of the regiment admitted that they did not have enough weight. So they did come to partic.i.p.ate here. They shared the other two fires with the members of the priest's escort and only occasionally came to gather together.

People laughed and talked and naturally accepted the dwarfs.

The Dwarfs were born nervous and crazy, and more people were no longer restrained and soon let go of their nervousness.

Ancestral Witch Opah, who is sleepy today, seems to have a lot of worries. She did not take the lead in opening her mouth after several silent motions from Luo Gan's Chief, but sat there tearing shredded meat and eating it.

Chief Lang Lang and Ancestral Witch KDi of the Mo-Mo Clan were reluctant to open their mouths first. After a while, they were attracted by the roast wild boar with rich spices. At first, they could not accept the first mouthful taste, but when they ate the second and third mouthfuls, they tasted it, even more like they forgot the purpose of coming here.

KDi asked Yan Mo how the special flavor came from.

Yan Mo told her that he was exchanging ingredients with some tribes in the middle reaches of the river, but he didn't have much on hand now, so he could trade more next year if she needed to.

KDi was delighted to ask about the river tribes in the middle reaches.

Seeing Ancestral Witch KDi and Yan Mo talking very happily, but never mention their main purpose of coming today, Luo Gan couldn't help but cough loudly and come up and say, "Chief Zhan, Mo DRen, we dwarf discussed, after all, we are not your Jiu Yuan People, so it's not good to live outside your city. We found a place suitable for dwarfs and wanted to migrate.”

Yan Mo translated Luo Gan's words to Yuan Zhan.

Yuan Zhan used a knife to cut the top barbecue and put it on a plate and handed it to Yan Mo. "Where do you want to move? Is it close to The Jiu Yuan?"

Luo Gan now understands the simple common language and immediately says, "Not very close. It's closer to the Duo Fei Tribe."

Yan Mo acted as a translator.

Others are talking, on the surface, but in fact they are all ears up eavesdropping.

"Oh?" Yuan Zhan said, "You're not talking about the valley near the Duo Fei tribe, are you?"

Ancestral Witch Opah sighed and Luo Gan nodded busily. "Yes, that's it!"

Yuan Zhan pulled out a b.l.o.o.d.y rib under his knife and said, "If it's there, no way! I heard from Lan Dier, who had gone and built the watchtower, that there was a place where a relic place had been found, and that I and Mo were preparing to go and look at it."

Someone didn't know about it and asked other people. Meng knew it best. He helped publicize the so called discovery of the site.

Everyone shouted and said they wanted to go over and see what happened. Lang-Ma was curious and asked Zheng, who spoke to her in simple words she could understand.

Luo Gan did not fully understand Yuan Zhan's words, but some of the main words caught him, and he listened to the other Jiu Yuan People saying that he was going to the site of the ruins. He immediately couldn't help shouting, "Why not? It is the ruins of our dwarfs!"

[1] You silly midget that place was painted by Yan Mo to make you think that it's a dwarf ancient heritage site so you will move there and be a silent barrier to Duo Fei tribe… Yan Mo you are a sc.u.m.

Yan Mo's interpretation stopped the discussion and many people looked angrily at Luo Gan.

Lang Lang covered his face, that irascible fool, do you know you have committed public incitement?

Yuan Zhan sneered. "It belongs to The Jiu Yuan. Besides, you said it's the dwarf's ruins, is it yours? What we found first, of course, belongs to us!"

Zhang smiled. "That's why everything in the territory of the Jiu Yuan belongs to the Jiu Yuan and whoever refuses that is asking to fight."

His son looked at him admiringly. Gan Yu smiled and tore a piece of meat into his son's mouth.

Zhang is happy both physically and mentally. A strong man like him, who has not been with his own wife for a long time, the stress can choke him up. Fortunately, now Gan Yu is willing to be with him again, and the remaining youngest son no longer looks at him with uneasy and alert eyes.

Some people thought he would miss the chief's position, but they didn't know that he had planned to give Chieftain to Zheng, but Zheng had gone and run away with Yuan Zhan to Jiu Yuan. Fortunately, before he rediscovered and trained a new chief candidate, he saw another way.

Yuan Zhan was one of the future Chieftaincy reservists prepared by The Yuan Ji Tribe before his leg was injured, he had not only recovered from his injuries, but also managed to established a larger and stronger tribe with the help of The Ancestors' Priest, and the people he used to start Jiu Yuan most of which were Yuan Ji people who came from the Xi Rang Clan and the Feisha Clan.

For many Yuan Ji people, The Jiu Yuan is just a better Yuan Ji which has just changed its name.

So what's the difference between him joining The Jiu Yuan with the rest of the Yuan Ji and giving chieftain to the most powerful warrior in the tribe?

With this in mind, and without the hindrance of The Old Priest, he never hesitated again!

Now, when he entered The Jiu Yuan, instead of being forced to provide for the aged, he was trusted and reused. He became the leader of a warrior regiment. Most importantly, Gan Yu and his child returned to him. Everyone respected him as before. What else could he ask for?

No one knows how grateful he is for the respect and trust Yuan Zhan and Yan Mo have given to him, and for them and Gan Yu, he will not let anyone infringe on The Jiu Yuan.

Luo Gan listened to Yan Mo's interpretation of Yuan Zhan and Zhang's words and was quiet for awhile

The Jiu Yuan People first discovered that place and came out just in time to meet several dwarf warriors who were out looking for a place to live. They were curious and went to see it. As a result, they found that it was probably related to the dwarf ancestors, so they rushed to inform the other dwarfs. It was the Jiu Yuan People who had built the watchtower there first.

But the dwarf heritage is so important to them and that just by listening to the description of the dwarf warriors has made them feel that there may be a huge heritage treasure hidden inside.

Ancestral Witch Opah even said that the site of the ruins might lead The Dwarfs to the road of becoming stronger.

Luo Gan looked anxiously at Ancestral Witch Opah, hoping she could say something. The Jiu Yuan's Chief and The Priest are too difficult to deal with, but they also respect Ancestral Witch Opah.

Yan Mo didn't wait for Ancestral Witch Opah to open her mouth. He smiled at her first and asked, "Ancestral Witch Opah, we Jiu Yuan People have done you no harm?"

Ancestral Witch Opah sighed again that the Jiu Yuan People really did not treat them badly, they even helped them a lot. If they were replaced by other human tribes, they would at least be driven away in the winter when food was scarce, not to mention that they would all be sold as slaves.

But the Jiu Yuan People not only kept them here for a long time and provides them with bricks to build their houses, but also lets them follow the Jiu Yuan People to learn the magical knowledge. When they went to hunt, they knew that if they would follow them and the Jiu yuan Warriors would not expel them from the hunting trip. In winter, they would help one or two of them with what they needed, and their dealings in The Jiu Yuan People. There are also fixed stalls in the market. Even the soft cloth she wears is a gift from Yan Mo.

"Mo DRen, if the Jiu Yuan agrees to give us the ruins and allow us to build our own tribe in that valley, I can swear to our ancestors that as long as our blood of the Luo-Luo Clan is still there, we will always be the strongest ally of the Jiu Yuan!" Ancestral Witch Opah sincerely uses The Jiu Yuan. Despite her age, among the dwarfs, she learns the best general language.

KDi immediately followed suit. "So do us The Mo-Mo Clan."

Yuan Zhan tore at the b.l.o.o.d.y ribs and laughed, "Mo taught me a sentence, called blank glove white wolf, that's what you dwarfs are doing now." [1] Never believe and ungrateful person

KDi was embarra.s.sed, but Opah saluted Yuan Zhan, "If you allow me, KDi and other Ancestral Witch would like to follow Mo DRen to the site."

"By what promise?"

"We are willing to make an alliance with The Jiu Yuan, and we can offer you warriors like mermaids, for half the salary you pay to the mermaids. If we will produce something later, and the Jiu Yuan is willing to trade with us, so everything, including knowledge, will come at half the price we give to other tribes."

Opah added, "But only if the site of the ruins belongs to us entirely. When other tribes attack us, the Jiu Yuan will help us, and you will swear never to invade us."

Yuan Zhan laughed ironically and threw out two words: "Dream on!"

Dda followed "Ouch" and plunged a broken boar leg into the ground.

Opah held Luo Gan, KDi and Lang Lang silent.

Yan Mo also raised his hand and held the man as if to rea.s.sure him that he should not be angry. Then he said to Opah, "Ancestral Witch Opah, you may think the terms you have proposed are very good, but if you can depend on that site to become strong, we can do the same. In that case, why do we need to leave that site back there? Give it to you? And you still haven't paid all the bills you owe us."

"We'll pay it back until we're done before leaving!" KDi bit his lower lip.

"So you're going to spend the winter in The Jiu Yuan? It's a good abacus" Yan Mo sneered.

You don't know what an abacus is, but you can understand it.

Even Ding Fei couldn't help muttering, "Are you dwarves too good at taking advantage of us?"

KDi does not have Ancestral Witch Opah's acc.u.mulated skills due to age, and her little face instantly blushed.

Lang Lang and Luo Gan can understand half of it, but they can also feel that things are not going well.

Opah shook his head at the others and continued, "Maybe the inheritance of that heritage can only be learned if we worship our ancestors?"

Yuan Zhan threw away the bone, and pulled out the pig's heart and said, "even if we can't use it, I'm willing to keep. Is it any of your business?"

Luo Gan saw Yuan Zhan's att.i.tude was wrong. He stood up and asked if Yuan Zhan wanted to fight with them. Opah shouted, "Luo Gan, sit down!"

Luo Gan shut up and sat down reluctantly.

DHe and Dda stood and moved, left to right, to Yan Mo's side.

The leaders Zheng and Zhang moved slightly, and women and children were cleverly separated.

Opah, as if she had not felt the sudden tension, said gently, "We haven't seen what's in the ruins yet. Why don't we go there first? If it's really important for us to sacrifice our ancestors, we're willing to pay any price for it."

Yan Mo put down the plate. "Any price?"

"Yes." Opah's voice is full of courage and perseverance.

"Is that's what other dwarf clan thinks?"

Opah and KDi looked at each other and Opah said, "We'll talk to other ancestor worshippers, and if they agree, we'll merge into one tribe."

Yan Mo lamented in his heart that although dwarfs are a little cunning, their cunning still lags far behind that of modern people. In order to have a place where they do not know the details of the relics, they can say "they are willing to pay any price for it", which puts them at a complete disadvantage in negotiations.

But it also has a lot to do with the dwarf's current disadvantage. They are eager to be fast and strong, and more eager to change their current situation. They are eager to live freely as mermaids, instead of looking at their faces under the fence. Now, the sudden emergence of ancient lands seems to be able to achieve their aspirations, how can they resist fighting for it?

Opah looked at Yan Mo, and the old turbid eyes flashed with wisdom. "Respected Priest DRen, we are willing to sacrifice our ancestors with the utmost sincerity to promote the success of this event. We don't want to say anything threatening or add trouble to make you a promise that if you don't want us to stay here in winter, we can also leave. I think the Jiu Yuan certainly wants to have an ally who will always be grateful to you, not an enemy who constantly hara.s.ses you."

It's not a threat, in fact, it's no different from a threat. But Yan Mo was not angry. Negotiations were always like this. Threats and lures went hand in hand.

Lang-Ma, who had been trying to listen to Zheng's explanation, suddenly said, "Give the land to us the Granma Tribe. Allies, forever! Women and warriors will be merged with you!"

Everyone laughed and cheered.

Zheng rubbed and rubbed Lang-Ma's hair.

Yan Mo also laughed. "Ancestral Witch Opah, you heard, it's not only your Clan who was interested in the site of the monuments. Other people wanted it. What else would they think of it if I gave it to you?"

Then he didn't wait for Opah to answer. He said, "In detail, let's go and see the ruins."

Yan Mo's words represented the end of the discussion. Others immediately started other topics, forcing the dwarf to stop talking.

Opah and others did not think that a negotiation would succeed. They were satisfied with the results now. After all, The Jiu Yuan did not reject them completely. They still had a great chance.

Before Yan Mo and others went to the site of the ruins.

On September 25, the outside town of The Jiu Yuan sounded a bugle call for the arrival of guests.

On this day, the weather was cloudy and the cold wind was blowing from the north, and the temperature began to decrease significantly.

Soon, the messenger came with the news: "Chief, Priest DRen, the Tianqiancheng-Heaven City messengers are here again!"
