Chapter 1423 The Treasure Appraisal Streamer Sets a Scam 23
After listening for a while, Shu Jiao was certain that she could really understand it.
Glancing at the crimson clouds outside, Shu Jiao asked while returning the camel, "Are you selling your sheep?"
She also has a slight accent.
But her accent was even more obscure, and surprisingly, the Yago people could understand it.
"Sell it."
An eight-year-old girl dressed in traditional clothing smiled sweetly, "Sister, you can actually speak our language! Are you their translator?"
No, that's not it.
Shu Jiao smiled gently, "What's your name? How much does one of your sheep cost?"
"My name is Ayiguli."
Aygul sweetly replied, "Sister, seven hundred is enough. Sister, would you like to eat a whole roasted lamb? We're roasting one today, you can eat with us."
"Is Aygul inviting me?"
Yes.
"Okay."
Seeing that Shu Jiao agreed, Ayiguli took Shu Jiao's hand and walked home, complaining as they went, "Those people are so annoying. They're so noisy every day, and they eat so much. They even killed Ata's camel. They're so irritating."
"Sister, are you going into the desert too?"
"The desert is very dangerous. Many people from our tribe have gone in and never come out."
"They say that man-eating demons live in the desert, and if you go in, you'll be cursed and die..."
Aygul spoke quickly and urgently.
Shu Jiao listened carefully, nodding as she followed Ayiguli into the house to eat roasted whole lamb.
While they were eating, Yan Sui came in with a translator and said he wanted to buy sheep.
At that moment, Shu Jiao was holding the roasted lamb chops that Ayiguli had handed her.
The lamb here is tender and has no gamey smell. The whole roasted lamb has a rich aroma of spices, and every bite is fresh, fragrant, salty, and tender. It tastes completely different from the fake whole roasted lamb you eat outside.
Cool!
When Yan Sui arrived, he saw Shu Jiao eating meat and drinking wine.
The cups clinked together.
Those Yago people who would never speak to them no matter what they were asked, unless they were given money, would suddenly become talkative and utter whatever came to mind when they were in front of Shu Jiao.
Yan Sui: ? ? ?
He slowly looked at Shu Jiao—
Mr. Shu, tell me, did you cast a spell on them?
Shu Jiao's lips curved slightly.
There's no way around it, it's all about personal charisma (bloodline bonus, naturally alluring).
It's not my fault that it's too popular.
Yan Sui: ...
He sighed softly, counted out three thousand bills, and wanted to buy two sheep.
1500 each?
Double the price!
"That's all, that's all."
Aygul's father waved his hand, "You've eaten all the sheep. From now on, they'll cost 1,800 each."
Yan Sui: ...
A sense of powerlessness washed over me.
But there was no other way, so he had to take out another six hundred and hand it over, and only then could he lead away the two sheep, which they had to kill and roast themselves.
what?
Seasonings.
That's a different price.
Fortunately, Yan Sui and his group brought their own supplies, otherwise they would have been slaughtered by the Yago tribe.
While Yan Sui was eating, Shu Jiao had already finished her meal and went out for a stroll.
"Oh~ eating."
Shu Jiao glanced at the freshly roasted mutton and said rather jokingly, "Boss Yan, you should have said so earlier. I invited you to eat with me at Ayiguli's house earlier."
Yan Sui didn't want to speak.
But glancing at Shu Jiao, Yan Sui couldn't help but ask again, "Can you understand their language?"
"Alas, family tradition, family tradition, not worth mentioning."
Shu Jiao smiled.
Since the original owner's parents and ancestors all died in the tomb, she could say whatever she wanted.
Yan Sui gave her a strange look. "Do you know how much I charge a translator from the Yago tribe per day? Two thousand! Two thousand a day."
"It's quite expensive."
Shu Jiao's eyes curved slightly. "Boss Yan, don't look at me like that. You can't afford to hire me as a translator."
Yan Sui: ...
Gan!
What does Shu Jiao need so much money for?!
What did Ayiguli and the others say?
Yan Sui asked softly, then explained, "We've been here several times, but the Yago tribe is very wary of us and won't say anything. The translator did say a few things, but I can't tell if they're true or false."
Shu Jiao raised her hand and rubbed her fingers together. "Boss Yan, you have to pay to hear a story."
Yan Sui: "How much?"
One million.
"...I'll call you back later."
"They say it's easy to get lost in the desert."
Shu Jiao lazily lay down on the ground, gazing at the stars in the sky. "The navigation and positioning will fail at that grave location, and the car will also have problems. Riding a camel is the best option."
There is a legend among the Yago people:
In the desert lives a group of devils.
The devil will ride on crimson clouds, drifting across the desert sky at dusk. You must find a sacred place to hide, or you will be cursed by the devil and become a dried-up corpse…
Shu Jiao said a lot.
Yan Sui quickly extracted the key points, listening and pondering something.
As we were talking, we saw headlights shining on us, and another convoy appeared.
The first to disembark were a group of well-equipped, professional (military) bodyguards who looked righteous.
Shu Jiao's eyes flickered slightly. "You've partnered with the archaeological team?"
"hold head high."
Yan Sui remained unfazed. "The archaeological team is reliable. Besides, I've already lost so many men going in; if I were to insist on going in myself, wouldn't that be suicide?"
He can't afford to lose so many people.
Funeral expenses are astronomical figures.
The archaeological team is just in time.
Since this tomb will be handed over to them sooner or later anyway, we might as well take advantage of their power to get in.
He can save lives, bring out more artifacts, and allow the archaeological team to uncover historical clues more quickly, without having to worry about them stabbing each other in the back.
Hello, hello, hello everyone.
Shu Jiao glanced at him sideways.
That old fox!
Yan Sui didn't see it.
Soon, Shu Jiao saw an old acquaintance again—Professor Chen Yuansheng.
Seeing Shu Jiao, one would know that Chi Yu was most likely there as well.
really.
In the same car, Chen Yuansheng had just gotten out to stretch his old arms and legs when Chi Yu got out a step later, carrying a black backpack that looked quite heavy.
"Yo~~~"
Shu Jiao put her hands behind her head, crossed her legs, and looked at Chi Yu, "My darling Yu Yu, what a coincidence~"
Chi Yu: ?
Am I hallucinating?
How come I can still hear Shu Jiao's voice in the vast desert?
"My darling Yu Yu~"
I heard it again.
Chi Yu then realized that she was not hallucinating.
Following the sound, she saw Shu Jiao, who was always carefree and irresponsible, sitting there with a smile, staring at her.
Chi Yu couldn't help but laugh.
What are you doing here?
Chi Yu put down her backpack and walked towards Shu Jiao, asking with some curiosity.
"Here you go~"
Shu Jiao gestured with her chin, pointing at Yan Sui, "I was invited here for a collaboration. Are you hungry?"
"Hungry."
Chi Yu nodded.
Shu Jiao rolled over and got up, pulled out a dagger, and cut a lamb chop off the whole roasted lamb in front of Yan Sui and handed it to Chi Yu, "Eat up, although the seasoning is probably not very good, the meat is not bad."
Yan Sui's lips twitched slightly; he rarely felt the urge to curse.
They eat his meat and then complain that the seasoning is bad.
You shouldn't do that.
Chi Yu chuckled softly, took the lamb chop and started eating it before saying that she was going to find Professor Chen Yuansheng.
Shu Jiao patted her bottom and got up, then followed her over.
