Chapter 1181

~8 min read 1,456 words

Receiving this good news, the interior of the Ying clan was jubilant, and the bonfire in Red Valley did not go out for three days.

Axun couldn't be happy.

Compared to before, he thought more and more, and his mood became heavier and heavier.

Mengmeng, who had become his wife, saw his worry: "What are you worried about?"

"Price." Axun looked at the bonfire that dyed half the sky red, "Doing this has a price. I'm afraid my father can't bear it, and my clan can't bear it."

"Overthinking." Mengmeng put her chin on his shoulder, "Thinking of the Yao Nation's task, are you still unbearable? Axun, you are really a gentle person."

Axun smiled, his palm pressed lightly on her lower abdomen: "You always turn my weaknesses into strengths, unlike my father who directly says I am gentle and weak."

"Although I respect the clan leader very much, I still want to say that being brave and fierce, daring to fight and kill is not a true hero!"

Axun teased his wife: "Then tell me, what is a hero?"

Mengmeng thought for a long time before saying: "Those who can lead everyone forward and let the clansmen live a good life are heroes."

"Isn't father one?"

"I don't know." Mengmeng pursed her lips and pointed forward, "Don't talk about this! Everyone hasn't been so happy for a long time, let's go play too."

"They don't know anything." Axun said gloomily, "No one taught them right and wrong, good and bad, and, and no one taught me. But I always feel that we did something wrong."

Wrong terribly! "At least the clan leader is right about one thing, as long as we are strong, there is no mistake." His wife grabbed his hand, "Let's go, don't always hold back in the room!"

Axun's worry came true not long after, and the Ying people's joy did not last long.

The Yao Nation did not restrict them from selling horses, but the Yao Nation no longer bought horses from them. There are other places on the Flash Gold Plain with great pastures and great horses, and people don't necessarily have to buy from the Ying people.

The original order for nine hundred fine horses every year was gone.

The Yao Nation was also giving them a little eye medicine, letting the Ying people understand that leaving its wings and control might not be a blessing.

The clan leader didn't take it seriously at first. If the order is gone, it's gone. Selling to others at a higher price, the Ying clan can earn more.

But he soon discovered that there were no "others".

The news of the Ying clan slaughtering the opinion leader spread like wildfire on the Flash Gold Plain. Others originally looked at the Ying clan with indifference or contempt, but now it has turned into hatred.

This is a bad signal. All forces in the surrounding area understand that the Ying clan has stood on the opposite side.

No force is willing to do business with the Ying clan, and when ordinary people see them, the first reaction is to spit and scold them for being unlucky.

Their horses couldn't be sold.

By this time, the clan leader still didn't take it seriously. What does it matter if the surroundings don't buy? They can sell to far away. Giant Deer Port has a large volume of goods, and people regularly ask to buy horses, what are they afraid of? However, the biggest trouble came immediately: the Ying clan couldn't buy grain.

Their territory is more suitable for raising horses, so they only opened up a small amount of farmland, and most of the grain had to be imported from other places. In the past, they bought grain from the Yao Nation and the Luodian Nation, but from now on, people don't sell it! The reason is also the same, that is, there is a famine this year, domestic grain production has decreased, and supplying their own people is not enough, so where is the surplus grain to sell to the Ying people?

The Ying people said okay, if you don't sell, I'll find someone else to buy.

The trouble is, there is no one else.

Other forces in the surrounding area are neither willing to buy horses from the Ying people nor willing to sell grain to them.

People are iron, rice is steel, and they will be hungry if they don't eat for a day. Moreover, if fine horses want to be raised well, they have to eat beans, oats, and other grains.

Therefore, the Ying people have to find a way to solve the problem of human and horse stomachs. If they really want to buy grain, there are some channels, but the price is ridiculously high, and it is a price every day.

Axun knew very well who was manipulating the grain price.

Eating is so expensive, how many days can the money in the hands of the Ying people support? It won't be long before they have to go to the Yao Nation to borrow money and grain again.

The debt that was finally gotten rid of will have to be carried back by then.

Except for the Ying people's reputation being stinkier and not tolerated by other nations, what is different from before? They seem to have fallen into a vicious circle again.

The Yao Nation played them around without blood, and forced them back to the old path from before.

Axun thought more and more. The words spoken by the opinion leader killed by his father seemed to be fulfilled one by one.

Killing him cannot bring a beautiful life to the Ying people.

On this afternoon, a few old horses were killed in the clan.

They have to consume grain and grass while alive, and can feed people after death.

The wails of the horses came, and the women in the clan couldn't help but shed tears.

These horses are their heart and soul, but horses cannot compete with people for grain, so they can only be disposed of.

If they can't get grain again, more and more horses will be killed later.

The clansmen could only kneel and beg the clan leader to find a way quickly, and the latter lived up to expectations and quickly came up with a countermeasure:

Attack the Tong clan.

The Tong clan is the neighbor of the Ying people, living across the river, but the relationship is very bad. For a long time, there have been constant conflicts, and last time they joined hands with other tribes to sneak attack the Ying people.

In that battle, the Ying people lost more than thirty people, and more than three hundred sheep and horses were taken away. Many scars on the warriors were left at that time.

Most importantly, the Tong clan recently bought a large batch of grain.

Being able to take revenge and fill their stomachs, almost no one in the Ying clan opposed it.

Axun also had no reason to oppose it. The tribes around Red Valley are always fighting. Could he stop everyone from taking revenge?

But he knew in his heart that something was wrong, more and more wrong.

Do it if you want. This night happened to be dark and windy, and the Ying people brought weapons and crossed the river quietly, and under the leadership of the clan leader, they caught the opponent off guard! In this battle, they won a complete victory.

Grain is available, money is available, and the food and drink of the people and horses don't have to worry for the time being.

The annoying neighbor for a long time can no longer fight against them.

This is digging a mouse hole in a famine year. The thinking is opened, the pattern is opened, and the trouble is solved.

But at the victory banquet where the bonfire was burning, the clan leader grabbed the wine glass and put forward a new goal: attack Zini!

Everyone was drinking with red faces and was originally excited, but when they heard this sentence, they all looked at each other.

The scene suddenly cooled down.

Ah, what? Zini can also be considered the neighbor of the Ying people, looking at each other across Jing Mountain.

Although it is only separated by a mountain, the Ying people's territory is suitable for raising horses, but the Zini people's territory is fertile black soil, most suitable for farming. So Zini has always been the big granary in the central and western parts of the Flash Gold Plain, and its produced grain is of superior quality and quantity, which can radiate and supply many areas around it.
