Chapter 589: The Great Gobi Chapter 589: The Great Gobi There are only two commercial streets in the Iron Cliff Battle Fort, which are the only areas that can be used by the passing traders, and the rest of the place is all military barracks and various forts.
Because the commercial area in the battle fort is too small, it is really to the point where every inch of land is valuable.
Nomadic herders like Abu who came from afar to sell their cattle were forced to camp outside the city under the watchful eye of soldiers.
In the unique restaurant in the war castle, Lin Qi sat in the top seat, slowly tasting the nomads' favorite milk tea, which is mashed with brick tea and boiled with fresh milk, sometimes adding sesame seeds, salt, sugar, ginger juice and even expensive spices such as cinnamon and star anise, like a special drink that is better than tea.
Nomads lack fresh vegetables and grains, and this milk tea is their supreme antidote to greasy and life-nourishing.
Nomads can go without eating meat for three to five days, but if they don't drink milk tea for three to five days, they will have all kinds of problems in their bodies.
I have to say that this muddy and sticky drink tastes very strange, and Lin Qi pinched his nose to drink a large bowl of milk tea clean.
On the other hand, Alda and Bilibili on the side didn't care about quickly destroying a large pot of milk tea, after all, they hadn't drunk any strange things when they were in the abyss, and milk tea was already a delicacy when it was placed in the Black Abyss Divine Prison.
The stout barrel sat steadily in the corner of the seat, and in front of him lay a huge table on which were placed half a roast cow, three roast sheep, and a large stewed pig's head.
The barrel lifted a vat of spirits and took a big sip of it contentedly, then grabbed the boiled pig's head, and happily bit off the pig's ear and munched on it.
"Follow the master, happiness," the barrel snorted a few times from time to time.
As long as this rough goods has meat to eat and wine to drink, this is heaven, to be exact, he is the easiest person to satisfy among all the people around Lin Qi except for Xuanlan.
Of course, the barrel is not stupid, and it is fragrant and spicy at the same time.
He won't forget to pat Lin Qi's ass by the way.
Lin Qi smiled and nodded to the wine barrel, then grabbed a piece of roast lamb chops sprinkled with a lot of chili powder and chewed it carefully.
They sat on a high vantage point in the restaurant, overlooking the whole street.
Most of the people who came and went on the street covered their bodies and faces with thick cloaks.
To the east of the Iron Cliff Battle Fort is a large Gobi Desert that is thousands of miles from north to south and hundreds of miles from east to west.
Although they are all wrapped in cloaks, it is easy to distinguish the identities of these people.
In the cloak made of silk, there must have been wealthy merchants from such large countries as Gaul, Caesar, and the Vyas Commonwealth of Commerce.
They are always surrounded by a large group of bodyguards.
He in a muslin cloak.
Generally speaking, it is the merchants of these small countries in the Eastern Plain, who take advantage of the geographical advantages to do business in the Iron Cliff Battle Fortress, and if they are lucky, they can always make a lot of profits.
As for those in coarse cloth cloaks.
Or simply wrapped in a piece of animal skin, covered in oily and dirty, and walking on a rampage with a savage and fierce atmosphere.
Nature is those nomads.
These people are extremely powerful in the Iron Cliff Battle Fort, and their temperament is like this, so they act very arrogantly and uninhibitedly, and at least half of the dozens of armed conflicts that break out in the Iron Cliff Battle Fortress every day are related to them.
Xiong Wanjin leaned against a pillar and was holding a roast leg of lamb and eating happily.
A few days ago, Xiong Wanjin's butt was cut off a large piece of fat, but after only a few days, his fat seemed to have grown back.
Although his buttocks were still in severe pain and he couldn't sit or lie down, he was completely free when he walked.
Lin Qi and the others were amazed by Xiong Wanjin's recovery ability, this guy was growing fat and flesh.
It's even more Warcraft than Warcraft.
Gulping down the roast leg of mutton, Lin Qi always felt that Xiong Wanjin's body was constantly expanding with the disappearance of the roast leg of mutton.
Finally swallowed the last bite of meat, Xiong Wanjin threw the leg of mutton bone heavily in the basket beside him, and the basket was already filled with the leg of mutton bone, which was the result of Xiong Wanjin's meal.
Satisfied with a full burp, Xiong Wanjin shouted: "Brother Tai, it's been three days since that old Abu guy came here, and we don't have so much time to wait for them." ” Xiong Wanjin didn't know what Yun Haitian wanted to do.
But he deeply knew that once Yun Haitian and they caught up, his group would be in great trouble.
Therefore, Xiong Wanjin couldn't wait to leave the Iron Cliff Battle Castle, as long as he could get one step closer to the east, he would feel much safer in his heart.
After all, Xiong Wanjin has a prince's brother-in-law, as long as he enters the territory of the old empire in the east.
Xiong Wanjin was completely shaken.
Relying on the prestige of his prince's brother-in-law, Xiong Wanjin really doesn't take Yun Haitian and these people seriously.
Lin Qi swallowed a piece of lamb chop into his stomach slowly.
He said lightly: "Don't worry, it's okay."
Abu: They have more than 10,000 animals to sell, and they must not sell them so quickly.
But how are your water and food stored these days?"
Alda patted his shoulder hard, and he said with a grin: "Great master, don't worry, all the space rings we have robbed these days are filled with food and water, enough for hundreds of thousands of people to consume for a year."

Perhaps they were all from the Black Abyss Divine Prison, and Lin Qi and Alda and Bilibili all suffered from the same disease, and they attached great importance to the storage of food and water.
Especially Lin Qi, why did he complete the initial transformation of his body in the Black Abyss Divine Prison was because he had stored a large amount of food and wine, so that he had enough energy supply after taking the potion left by Master Kocha So no matter what Lin Qi and they did now, it had become their instinct to stock up on food and water in large quantities.
When they were in the Principality of Perlan and the Principality of Montenegro, Lin Qi and the others had stored a huge amount of food and water.
But when they heard that there was a Gobi Desert further east, Lin Qi ordered Alda and Bilibili to go to the commercial area to buy more food.
Because of their sneaky purchases in the past three days, the price of grain in the Iron Cliff Battle Fort suddenly doubled, which directly caused the anger of the logistics officers of the Iron Cliff Battle Fort and caused a lot of chaos.
However, this mess has nothing to do with Lin Qi and them, and they who are rich and wealthy will not care about this little bit of price fluctuations.
Just as Xiong Wanjin killed today's fifty-seventh roast leg of mutton, Abu, who was covered in dust, strode into the private seat.
He laughed, grabbed the milk tea pot on the table, and swallowed the milk tea with the spout.
Grabbing a roast leg of lamb and nibbling a few bites, Abu bowed deeply to Lin Qi triumphantly: "Elder Xiong, we are ready."
We sold 12,000 animals.
Haha, we sold it for a good price."
With a snap of his mouth, Abu snorted a little stupidly: "I just don't know which bastard has deliberately raised the price of grain in the past two days, the grain on the market is expensive and scarce, we only bought enough grain for the tribe to use for one winter, damn it, I was going to buy the grain and salt that the entire tribe needed for two years, but now" With a fierce fist swing, Abu gritted his teeth and said, "Don't let me know who they are, or I'll cut off their heads."
Linzi and Alda glanced at each other, neither of them saying a word.
It seems that they are the culprits who have caused the price of food in the Iron Cliff Fort to skyrocket, which is not a good thing to say to Abu.
Lin Qi coughed and stood up, he nodded to Abu: "It's really unfortunate, but is the price of goods fluctuating, this is a normal thing, isn't it something we can go?"
Abu nodded excitedly, and he slapped the barrel on the shoulder hard: "Of course, haha, we can go" Lin Qi had already explained to the wine barrel beforehand, so Abu slapped him on the shoulder, and the wine barrel tilted its body, staggering back two steps with mud and water.
Abu's eyes flashed with a dazzling gleam, and he laughed more and more excitedly.
With his head held high triumphantly, Abu stepped out of the seat first.
The donkey pursed his lips and muttered mockingly: "Grandson, this is a complete grandson, you say, there will be big-breasted girls in their tribe?"
Xiong Wanjin patted the donkey on the head, then picked up the donkey and put him on his shoulder.
Xiong Wanjin's body is tall and stout, the donkey's figure is petite and exquisite, and the donkey riding on Xiong Wanjin's shoulder does not look abrupt at all, but it looks a little weird.
The group walked down the restaurant, and several tribesmen brought by Abu were squatting in front of the restaurant, looking at the nomads on the other side of the street.
Abu scolded softly, he glared fiercely at the nomads on the other side of the street, sneered disdainfully, and then politely pulled Lin Qi's sleeve and led the group of people along the street to walk out of the Iron Cliff Battle Fort.
This time, Abu came to the Iron Cliff Warlord to trade, and he brought with him a thousand good men of his clan.
At this moment, the warriors of this thousand tribes were waiting outside the Iron Cliff Battle Fort with more than a thousand Bactrian camels with heavy loads.
These warriors were all riding horses, all of them wearing swords and bows, and they looked awe-inspiring with a fierce aura on their faces.
Without wasting time or talking nonsense, Lin Qi and the others climbed onto the camels specially prepared for them, and then Abu gave an order, and a thousand warriors shouted at the same time, and they drove the camels that were carried with huge loads in a row, and slowly marched towards the east of the Iron Cliff Battle Fort.
Thirty miles away from the Iron Cliff Battle Fort, the ground turned dry yellow, and Lin Qi and his party officially left the Western Continent and entered the Great Gobi area of the Land Bridge.
The bells under the camels' necks chirped in a monotonous sound, and the long procession slowly marched eastward, the wind and sand quickly erasing the traces they had left behind.
As the breeze rose, Yun Haitian spun out from behind a hill with six dark goblins and a group of heavily armored warriors.
Looking at Lin Qi and his party in the distance, Yun Haitian showed a smug smile
