Chapter 59 The Mysterious World
A huge head emerged from the depths of the woods, and a thick cuticle covered the entire head. Two large round bone plates were raised under the rough skin, forming protection like armor.
Its head has sharp horns, which are sharper than a spear.
The most terrifying thing is its height, which is visually estimated to be more than twenty meters.
The dark yellow eyes are inlaid with palpitations. It has endogenous horny muscles like a chameleon, which can control the eyeballs to view the surroundings at a flexible speed, with no dead angles at 180 degrees, and the two eyes can rotate in different directions at the same time, and the search frequency and speed change at the same time.
"Go away, let's leave here." This time Tianhao was not stubborn and he issued the order as fast as possible.
That was a triceratops.
Why did the long-extinct dinosaurs appear here?
Tianhao is not a biological expert, and there was no living triceratops in his era. However, through brief observations, he found that this giant beast was very different from the fossils seen in the museum in memory.
It is larger in size and not as short and thick in length, which means it runs faster than expected.
Perhaps it is considered a jogging player among ancient dinosaurs, but for the northern barbarians with an average height of 2.7 meters, their huge size fills the shortcoming of speed, and it can reach the distance of human despair with just one step.
Two sharp fangs protruded from its lower lip and grew upwards. This was what prompted Tianhao to quickly leave. That meant that the triceratops, which were supposed to be plant-eating animals, were most likely to have changed their inherent food and developed a strong interest in flesh and blood creatures.
He rushed out a long distance in one breath, crossed the ridge at an extremely high speed, stopped at the bottom of the gentle hillside, turned around and looked at the black peak that seemed to be directly inserted into the sky in the distance. Tianhao, who was gasping for breath, felt his legs weak, his body tilted backwards without control, and slowly fell to the ground.
Everyone was so angry that they were out of breath. Fortunately, the wind blew here and the mutated triceratops did not find their existence.
Tian Kuang held the battle axe in his hand tightly, exerting too much force, and his arms and shoulders were trembling. He rolled and crawled to Tian Hao, widening his eyes in his heavy breathing: "Lao San, that...what monster is that?"
Tianhao shook his head, his face full of wry smiles: "I don't know."
In fact, what really scared him was not the triceratops, but something else.
When he climbed to the top of the mountain, Tianhao felt as if he had stepped on something. It was just that Tianfeng's shouting diverted his attention. He could only instinctively lower his head and glance down at his feet when he turned around and ran away.
There is a square that is mostly hidden in the soil and gravel, leaving only a exposed right angle. Next to it is a "pot lid" that bulges from the inside and outside of the soil. Without the memory of the civilization era, Tianhao would not have been able to determine that it was a home TV satellite reception antenna.
It's not a mountain top, but the roof of a building.
He also saw something familiar.
A car.
It was very old and very broken. The hood was gone for a long time and beyond recognition. A huge tree that only two people could embrace together grew out of the bottom of the car, spreading the entire chassis. The body of the car, full of rust and dirt, cracked from the middle section, as if two lips that could not be closed, silently telling the past history.
This is a destroyed world.
Leaving for the time being is not timid, but a last resort.
Tianhao knew very well that what he needed most now was time.
I can get more fusion points to strengthen myself.
I won't give up, I will come back.
...
Chiti City, the city lord's mansion.
Businessman Jin Sheng knelt on the spacious inner hall floor, like a gentle housekeeper dog, dared not look up and looked at the ground in front of him with the most humble attitude.
"The business in Panshizhai has not grown much. The total transaction volume remains at about 90 silver coins per time. However, there are many types of goods they can trade: pickled venison, dried fish, coarse salt, wheat noodles... Dried apples are new products that appeared last month, but there are not many."
The city lord Niu Tong sat on the chair. The rough round wooden table was not very crafted. The surface was covered with lacquer, but it had not been polished. It felt a little stubborn when it felt. He picked up a piece of dried apple from the plate, put it in front of him and looked around for a few seconds. He turned the direction and stuffed it into his mouth. While chewing, he said, "It tastes pretty good, it's delicious."
The great wizard Wu Yuan sat opposite him, with a calm expression on his face, obviously the focus of his concern was different from Niu Tong, and his eyes were always on Jin Sheng without any deviation: "Let's go ahead and talk, what else?"
Jin Sheng's body bends less than before, and his tone became more humble: "The most purchase goods in Panshizhai every time is cloth, whether it is cotton or linen."
Niu Tong held the dried apples that had not yet been chewed in his mouth and interjected with a smile: "Since they want it, let it be for them. How much can a small village with a few hundred people be worth?"
Wu Yuan raised his hand and tweaked his long hair that had fallen from his forehead: "Have they paid?"
He then corrected what he had just said: "Did they use metal currency during the transaction?"
"No." Jin Sheng replied very affirmatively: "The first few transactions were used, but they disappeared. They always wanted to cloth, which exceeded the total value of the goods I purchased from Panshizhai. After a while, the business turned into exchange."
Wu Yuan gently lit the table with his fingers and said thoughtfully: "In other words, they don't have any extra money in their hands."
Niu Tong was a little dissatisfied with Wu Yuan's attitude. He took a sip of warm tea in his mouth and touched his stomach with satisfaction: "This is not obvious! There are only so many things in Panshi Village, but it is actually not worth a lot of money. Ayuan, if you want to reach the level you said, at least you have to increase the output of that village several times."
Wu Yuan looked at Niu Tong calmly without arguing. He flipped over the stack of animal skins placed at his hand and made a cold voice at Jin Sheng: "Let's talk about the situation of the next village."
Each animal skin records the commodity trading situation of a village in the past three months.
Yuying from Zhangpu Village is fifteen silver coins.
Yuying in Songfeng Village is 233 silver coins.
Yu Ying from Shanyouzhai is forty-seven silver coins...
This is an account book, but the recording method is very different from that of the civilization era. Recording numbers is not the profit status of Jin Sheng, but the profits earned by each village after transactions are converted into money.
Half an hour later, Jin Sheng, with a humble expression, retreated from the room.
"Overall, the situation is better than we thought." Wu Yuan picked up the animal skin placed on the top floor and handed it to Niu Tong sitting opposite him: "Songfeng Village actually has a profit of more than 200 silver coins. Haha, this guy Yansen is more profitable than I thought."
Yansen is the leader of Songfeng Village.
Niu Tong didn't mean to reach out to pick up the animal skin. The dried apple tasted good, so he simply dragged the whole plate in front of him: "I have read the account book. All villages have Yuying, except Panshi Village, that's an exception."
