Ye An

Ye An returned to the isolated island, sent the team from the settlement to the camp, informed Mu Mian of the identities of these people, and asked her to resettle them.

"Your Excellency wants to keep them?" Mu Mian asked in a low voice.

"It's not sure yet. You should observe for a few days first and make arrangements after the market is over." Ye An said.

"Ok."

After hearing Ye An's words, Mu Mian quickly understood how to arrange it.Immediately called a few women and sent the team that came back with Ye An to the tent on the east side of the camp.

When everyone in the team came to the island and saw the tents lined up and the crowds shuttling among them, especially the businessmen who specialized in selling grain, they couldn't help feeling hot.If it weren't for the strict order of the team leader, everything would follow Ye An's arrangements, and he would have given up taking a rest, and would first exchange the animal skins and bear bones he brought with him for food.

"Come with me."

Mu Mian saw the performance of the group and understood why Ye An looked at them differently.Even without Ye An's ability, relying on her experience living in the wasteland, she can roughly guess the characters and behaviors of these people.

Unless they are extremely good at acting and can resist Ye An's assimilation, otherwise, based on their performance, they can indeed try to cooperate.

Kapok took the initiative to greet each other, exchanged names, and learned that the leader of the other party was named Lu Ge, who was only in his early thirties this year, and most of the people in the group were in their 30s and 40s, and none of them were over [-] years old. Kapok couldn't help being speechless.

"It's getting late, everyone, take a rest first. The market will be open for many days, so there is no need to rush. By the way, you haven't eaten yet, right? I'll send some over later."

"Thank you." Ruger thanked him sincerely.

"You don't need to thank me, it's what the adults ordered. When you leave, you will have to pay for the tents you live in and the food you eat." Mu Mian showed just the right amount of kindness, which made the other party feel kind without being suspicious of her attitude. .

"Of course."

Ruge got up to send the kapok away, returned to the tent, faced the eyes of his subordinates, and asked strangely, "Why are you all like this?"

"Boss, what do you mean Master Ye?" A man asked.

"What do you mean?"

"Yes, I don't understand why you are so generous to us. If grandpa is here, he will definitely be able to guess." The man's face was distressed.

"What are you thinking about so much?" asked his companion, "Isn't it good to be generous to us? Besides, what is there to plot on us? Apart from these bear skins, what else?"

"Yes." Luge's young brother chimed in, "Everyone has seen how powerful Mr. Ye is. If he wants bear skins, it's such a simple matter. If you want me to say, stay at ease and do what you want. Let's Ye Daren will not pay attention to these few people at all."

Ruger has not spoken, silently listening to the discussion.

It wasn't until everyone's conversation came to an end and they focused their attention on him again that they picked up a branch and broke it, threw it into the hearth for heating, and said, "Master Ye is a mutant, and the whole delta belongs to him. Do you think, What do we people have to plot?"

As soon as the words were finished, footsteps came from outside the tent, and several women followed Kapok's instructions and brought hot wheat cakes, large bowls of broth, and venison roasted with special seasonings to Luge and the others.

In addition, there are bright red fruits on an oval plate, exuding a sweet smell, not to mention the snow season, it is rare even in the rainy season.

The women delivered the food without stopping, and told Luge and the others that someone would come to take away the plates after eating.In addition, the night market is not closed, and people in the camp can move freely.It's just that you can't get out of the fence of the camp. If you don't follow the rules and something happens, they will not be responsible.

"An accident?" A man asked curiously.

"There are mutated pythons and wolves on the island. There are many kinds of raptors in the forest, as well as mutated spiders and ant colonies. By the way, mutated tigers and snow leopards also appear occasionally." The woman told the truth without any exaggeration, let alone Alarmist, "Did you see those pillars outside the camp? Those hanging on them are all unruly and trying to cause trouble. The number is not large, because the others have no luck leaving a whole body."

The implication in the woman's words sent a chill down Ruger and the others.

Seeing everyone's expressions, the two women exchanged glances, completed Kapok's task, turned and left the tent without saying a word.

The curtains were lowered to block the howling cold wind.

The flames burned in the hearth, and the shadows of the people were elongated and swayed on the hanging animal skins.

The smell of food lingered in the nose. The men were already hungry, but none of them was in a hurry to do it. Their eyes were focused on Ruger, and their expressions were both puzzled and a little bit terrified.

"Don't think so much, eat first." Luge grabbed a piece of wheat cake first, brought it to his mouth and tore off a large piece.The long-lost aroma of wheat filled his taste buds, and after he swallowed it, he realized how hungry he was.

"Yes, let's eat first."

"Anyway, they're all here. If there's anything to do, we'll wait until we're full."

The men started their hands one after another, and the wheat cakes and barbecue on the plate were quickly emptied, and the broth was also completely drunk.No one touched the tempting fruit, just held it in his hand and smelled it occasionally.

It's not that they don't want to eat it, or that they don't like it, but that the fruit is so rare that they really want to take it back and leave it to their loved ones at home.

"Eat them all, we can exchange some when we go to the market tomorrow," Luge said.

"It must be very expensive." A man hesitated, "If the fruit is replaced, the food may not be enough."

"If you want to stay, you can stay. If there is still a surplus after the food exchange, I will find a way to buy more." Seeing that everyone insisted, Ruge did not continue to persuade him. He also put the fruit he had distributed into his pocket, and then put the plate Put the bowl and the bowl near the tent door, and wait for kapok to send someone to pick it up.

To their surprise, it was not the woman they had seen before who came to pick up the things, but a few vigorous teenagers.Seeing them, the men couldn't help thinking of their brothers and children, and couldn't help but initiate a conversation.

The attitudes of the teenagers are not warm, but they can't be called indifferent either. For the conversations of Ruge and others, they will answer what they can answer, and when they are not sure, they will cleverly change the topic.

In contrast, Fir Shan is better at communicating with people, and she gets a lot of useful information out of the men's mouths.

Time passed by, and there was regular drumming outside the tent.

The men looked puzzled, and Fir Shan and the others took the initiative to end the conversation, telling them that this was the sound of drums to close the camp.When the drums stop, the camp will drop wooden doors and close the surrounding fences.At that time, people inside will not be allowed to leave, and people outside will not be able to enter.

"Take a good rest tonight. There will be a large caravan selling goods tomorrow. If you want to exchange food, it is a good opportunity."

The teenagers said goodbye and left. Ruge and the others spread out the blankets and lay in the warm tent. They thought they would not be able to fall asleep, but when their heads touched the pillows, they suddenly felt drowsy and yawned one after another. After a while, the sound of snoring So one after another.

As night fell, the camp was still brightly lit.

Many tents are still crowded with people, caravan members take turns to guard, bargain with those who come to the booths, and chat happily after a deal is reached.

In the past, this situation basically would not happen.Even in Hunter City, people will not make noise at night.The reason is that there are too many mutant beasts walking at night, and they are too ferocious. It is a good location in the center of the market, but it is on the edge, and the number of guards is average, so it is difficult to guarantee that they will not be attacked.

There is no such worry on the isolated island.

As long as they don't step out of the fence, no mutant beasts will attack them. Instead, there are birds and wolves patrolling around to ensure the safety of the camp.

Everyone in the caravan was not used to such a change at first, but as time went by, their tense nerves relaxed, and they increasingly recognized the benefits of setting up a trade zone here, and they also actively begged Ye An to allow the time of the market to be reduced. extend.

After Ye An nodded, at least half of the people sent messages to contact their good friends, telling them to come to the isolated island as soon as possible, and made it clear that if they missed this time, they would definitely regret it.

In this way, Ye An plans to open a two-month market until the end of the snow season.

Merchants, city dwellers, settlers and homeless people came here in an endless stream, and the delta became more and more lively day by day.In contrast, the number of stone pillars erected in front of the camp is increasing day by day.

The difference from the previous ones was that Ye An didn't need to do anything for these guys who were picked out. The businessmen who had realized the benefits of the isolated island trade zone would naturally join forces to catch the nails who had mixed into the team and make an example of them.

There was another heavy snowfall, and the sky and the earth were all silvery white.

No matter how cold the weather is, it can't stop the teams from rushing to the delta.

After dealing with the affairs of Yancheng and handing over the follow-up matters to Rose, Xiao Yun led the convoy to the delta, and before they approached the isolated island, they met the team led by Zijing.

The two sides met on both sides of the river, and before confirming each other's identity, a loud noise suddenly came from the ice-covered river.

The sound continued, as if giant beasts were constantly colliding under the river, trying to break through the ice.
