Bab 120: 120

Zheng’s group finally reached the marketplace. They split up into two groups according to plan. One group went to stock up the supplies while the other went to buy horses.

“Yes, we only want horses, not camels. If you don’t have enough horses, we will get the rest from other merchants,” Jonathan said to the merchant as he pinched a gold nugget with his fingers.

One had to admit that the plus side to greed was the ability to take every advantage possible in bargaining. Despite the unwillingness when he handed away the gold nugget, he actually had a whole gold bar in his pocket, the money Zheng gave him for taking on the task.

The two groups finished their tasks within an hour. All the merchants showed great passion under the influence of gold and prepared everything they needed in such a short period of time. Without many more words, they took their supplies and left for a little warehouse on their horses.
