Rong Hou pondered He Jingtai's proposal before saying, "Young Master He, my Rong Tribe can work with you. However, we want supplies as payment."
Hearing this, He Jingtai fell into deep thought.
'Those furs are extremely rare and hard to obtain. If we purchase them using the new currency, it may be impossible for my family to gather enough funds. However, if we trade using grains or flour, the cost will be much lower.'
After weighing the pros and cons, He Jingtai asked, "May I ask what kind of supplies the Tribe Leader wants?"
"I believe Young Master He has already seen our situation on your way here. Although the Great General is kind enough to provide us with suitable living quarters, my people are still starving. If Young Master He is willing, I would like grains and salt in exchange for our goods," Rong Hou replied calmly.
'As expected. They want grains and salt,' He Jingtai thought, the corner of his lips curving slightly upward.
