After you had made the deal with the Aqua clan, I decided that I was going to his clan myself, I wanted to gather more information about the places they had seen, and that would help me when I was willing to explore further.
After talking in detail with the father, I told him about my decision to go to the aqua clan, I wanted to see more people, I wanted to try to get valuable information by approaching them, it is likely that they do not know it is valuable information.
So I'll try to take advantage of that.
It's not that he's a bad person, but you have to take advantage of resources before someone else runs out.
This world is different from my world, there may be something more here than in my own world, but I do not want to think about that much.
After I select 2 Cultivators, we prepare to load the beans into bags, and we mount them on the cart, to carry this we carry 3 horses, my individual horse, and two horses that pull the cart.
There are 5 sacks of grains, for an amount of 30 Goats 30 Sheep and 15 Cows.
That was the amount we agreed, for the sacks of wheat grains.
When we got to the border, I saw that Erza was looking at me in a strange way, and to the saddle, I did not suppose it was the surprise and sorry for giving me the information of the horses.
After doing the counting, the animals were guided by the guards who escorted the food and the representative, which was 2 days ago with the envoy to do the counting of the animals.
After it was confirmed that all the animals were there, we both left in different directions, I followed the one that had ridden in the carriage, we had made a carriage with 2 wagons, I assumed it would be better to take the people to their clan faster and do not take 2 days walking to his clan.
After traveling for 12 hours, making several stops, We let the horses rest several times to eat and drink, and so we rest.
I thought it's a bad idea not to bring another car. I had to slow down several times to be on par with the car. I would have arrived if it were not for having to wait for them.
After we arrived, people looked at us weird, wondering who we were, how we could ride a fast quadruped without being killed, or thrown from above the animal.
Or how could that big wooden box drag the horses only.
Tl: I'm going to start modifying from now on I'm just going to call horses, horses, and not fast quadrupeds. Since it is an exceedingly long name and it makes me crave to have to write it every time someone does not worship part of the Protagonist's village he sees them, so I am going to spread this horse name and the future tribes that appear also call him a horse.
*** Erza's point of view ***
"How do you make the horses obey you?" I asked, since I'm intrigued by the ways Gaia's things do things
"The truth is that it is a secret, but in the future we can sell some, I say exchange some for a clear exchange.
"Example 1 domesticated horse, could be exchanged for 10 wild horses, if you are interested, of course
"Or 1 horse would cost 100 female cows," said Nathan
"Is not that much for a single pet?" She asked, surprised by the ridiculous amount.
"I think you take advantage, because they are the only ones who can do it" said Erza's sister, Mina
Mina was a bit annoyed, for the ridiculous amount they asked for an animal, how they were going to get 10 horses without dying, they are very violent when someone tries to approach them. In addition there is always a horse watching if something strange is happening and they feel the danger they scream and they run away making it impossible to catch them.
And there is the matter with the cows although they live in large numbers it is very difficult to catch them, they are always attentive and they run although they are slower than the horses, they are many and when someone tries to hunt one and it fails it becomes a chaos and they begin to persecute us . We managed to escape and capture some doing this too but it is a very complicated process since you have to cheat, holes in the ground, and then remove it from there by tying them up but there is the matter that they get violent later. It is very difficult to catch them without anyone getting hurt, and that process has to be repeated several times since there are limited gaps that you can make with a herd nearby.
We have only managed to catch 100 heads for many days.
Since I saw for the first time that they could stay locked up.
When we went to visit the Gaia clan, I asked the boss for permission the next morning to see his cows, the chief agreed, but I went to see how he built the fence
After having understood, as they were stable, I decided to do this later when we get to the clan
*** End of view of Erza ***
"The truth is that because we are the first to domesticate horses, it is essential that we use this advantage over others, let's put it that way, I have something that you need but you can not get it or at least you do not know how to do it at the moment.
But this other fundamental fact, we need something that others have, if I two of what I have for 3 of those that you have, but you do not know how to do anything with it, the exchange will be useful for you as for me, and the horse comes domesticated
"Example that arias, besides eating a wild horse without tame, if you manage to catch 1?"
"You do not know the methods to tame them, so an exchange about the horse is not bad."
"10 useless savages apart from meat, for 1 usable it is better than 10 pieces of meat, also with 1 horse you can hunt better"
"Then tell me, what's better?" I asked, it's fair, only we know how to tame horses, as for now nobody else has horses, we have to take advantage of this.
"I still think you should not take advantage of others." I murmur mine for her
Erza had been silent all the time, listening to Natha's explanation, I also wanted to say that the prices were very high, but they had a point. If they have something we want but do not know how to do it, it is normal that they give a high price.
That at least until we figured out how to tame the horses she thought was for herself.
"Well, we talked about that at another time, did you come to know the village?" Erza asked trying to change the subject.
"If in fact, I would like to know more about the outside world, to tell the truth, I do not know many places, outside the territory, I would like to hear their stories of the places they have visited, so that in the future when it comes out I have a little more information to help me along the way. "I said my real reason for coming to the Aqua clan, I did not want to waste time on nonsense.
After the sisters knew my purpose they were surprised, because I would want to travel alone without the safety of their clan? It's a very strange concept for them,
But Erza seemed to understand something and his eyes sparkled when I said my real motive for some reason, although it was brief I saw it.
After that we followed the agreement we went to a place, with good land where it could be grown, the good thing is that the growing season is on time so they will have their results, when this season ends.
