Chapter 69 The Mysterious Big Black Rabbit
As the most powerful predator, Wang Yan only needed to borrow the dragon's aura slightly to intimidate the herd of argali sheep, and their voices gradually quieted down.
Immediately, Wang Yan's expression returned to its usual smiling look, revealing his goodwill.
"Can we have a proper talk now?"
The group of ibex looked at each other but didn't say anything more. After a while, a burly, muscular man pushed his way out of the crowd. Without even looking, you could tell from his physique that he was the leader of the ibex tribe.
The leader was over 1.8 meters tall, with a pair of enormous, frighteningly large horns. He pushed through the crowd and looked at Wang Yan, who also showed off his white teeth to indicate that he meant no harm.
"Humans are an extremely greedy race. We will not give you salt. No matter how much we give you, your hearts are like abysses that can never be filled. You should leave here immediately!"
Wang Yan shrugged and said calmly:
"You can't say that. Even if you have many conflicts with humanity, you wouldn't have conflicts with commerce, would you?"
"peddler?"
Wang Yan's words caused the ram chieftain to pause for a moment, then he looked Wang Yan up and down and shook his head, saying:
"If you think you can deceive our rock sheep tribe with such lies, then you underestimate us. We can tell at a glance whether someone is a merchant or not."
Wang Yan ignored him, raised his hand slightly, and with a thought, a pile of fresh vegetables appeared on the ground in an instant, including eggplants, cabbages, radishes, and all sorts of other vegetables. These were all prepared in advance by Wang Yan. Since they were going to make a transaction, he would first take out the goods.
When the group of argali saw the fresh vegetables on the ground, they were instantly a little excited. Although beastmen are not like real wild animals that are divided into vegetarian and carnivorous, they still have some dietary preferences. For example, the argali prefer to eat vegetables, let alone these fresh vegetables that are still covered with dew.
"Gurgle—"
Some greedy little lamb was swallowing its saliva without any self-control. Wang Yan spread his hands and said:
"Now that should prove I'm here to do business, right?" His tone was somewhat indifferent, but he continued, "If you still want to cause trouble after this, don't blame me for being impolite."
After all, Wang Yan wasn't particularly good-tempered. He had already given these rock sheep a lot of face. If they kept backing down, then he wouldn't be so ruthless as to take matters into his own hands.
A bead of cold sweat slowly slid down his cheek. The head of a clan is not someone who can be just all brawn and no brains. He was certainly not a fool, and of course he could understand what Wang Yan was saying.
If you don't know what's good for you, the big knife might just hit your neck.
"Hmm... So you're a traveling merchant. I'm so sorry, you're not like other traveling merchants. I offended you for a moment. Please forgive me."
To be able to say this so calmly without blushing or skipping a beat shows that he is flexible and adaptable. The things Wang Yan brought out did indeed meet the needs of these rock sheep tribes. After all, other merchants rarely bring fresh vegetables; most of them bring dehydrated vegetables or potatoes and sweet potatoes, which are more durable.
Wang Yan nodded, then waved his hand and said:
"Alright, I'll trade you for your salt mine. Half a kilogram of vegetables for one kilogram of salt, that's the price. I won't go in, you can just take them out and exchange them."
"What?! Half a kilogram of vegetables for one kilogram of salt?!"
The exorbitant price, like asking for the moon, nearly made everyone's jaws drop. Wang Yan didn't care about any of that. Who knew how much salt mine these argali sheep actually had? Wanting fresh vegetables at a low price? You got all the good stuff, huh?
"That's the price anyway, you can't refuse, the minimum is 100 kilograms of salt."
The ibex tribe members were indignant and were about to speak up when Wang Yan suddenly pulled out a large, man-sized sword from somewhere and stuck it into the ground, clearly indicating that he wouldn't negotiate with them.
It wasn't that Wang Yan was being unreasonable; he knew these people had plenty of salt mines, and given the sparse vegetation, they might not even get vegetables a few times a year, only able to exchange them for dehydrated vegetables from traveling merchants. They would definitely exchange them; they just wanted to haggle over the price.
The clan chief glanced at it, a sense of powerlessness rising in his heart. He sighed, then slowly said:
"Perhaps... we should invite the priestess out and let her speak with you."
"Hmm?" Wang Yan felt a sense of doubt. The priestess? He had just heard someone call her that, but he hadn't paid any attention. Now that he heard the title from the ram tribe chief again, he was curious.
Lily, who was behind the flock of sheep, nodded and then quickly ran into the depths. Not long after, a figure slowly walked out from behind the group of rock sheep.
When Wang Yan first saw the witch, he was even stunned for a moment, because to his surprise, this so-called witch of the rock sheep tribe was not a rock sheep, but... a rabbit?

[Ding—Unlock the "Rabbit Clan" illustration]
[Gain passive effect: Superior Metabolism!]
[New products unlocked! The store has been updated!]
The effect of super metabolism is a more efficient energy conversion rate. Simply put, it means that you can get more energy from less food. The most direct manifestation of this is that if Wang Yan is injured again in the future, his hunger may not be as severe as before, and he will heal more quickly.
Wang Yan shifted his thoughts away from the newly acquired passive ability and back to the witch. The woman's appearance was somewhat strange, not that she was ugly, but that her appearance was different from that of ordinary beastmen.
People like Yingluo and Huayue have the appearance of human girls with some animalistic features, but the appearance of the priestess in front of us is more beastly.
Moreover, this rabbit-eared girl has black fur and a pair of bright, shining golden eyes, like two stars in the night sky. Her gray-black Japanese-style shrine maiden robe is clean and tidy, making her look like a divine messenger communicating with the gods, noble and elegant.
"Greetings, merchant from afar."
"I am a priestess who walks through the abyss of the wall, a messenger to purify the world of its impurities, and I reside here temporarily."
"I have learned the specifics from Lily."
"Your long journey has brought us fresh vegetables, and your pricing is perfectly reasonable. I will temporarily agree to your deal on behalf of the argali tribe."
Her voice was melodious and ethereal, instantly uplifting and relaxing, captivating listeners.
(I'll put the picture of the shrine maiden in this comment section, please bear with it, this one is also there (*˘︶˘*).。 .:*♡)
