However, Cleopatra only had clues. It was said that Ptolemy XIII hid a large batch of high-level soul equipment in a primitive tribe in the upper reaches of the Ganges River. The specific location was in the pyramid of the tribal leader.
Back then, Ptolemy XIII knew that it was difficult for him to be Cleopatra's opponent, so he offered a large batch of high-level soul equipment to the primitive tribe as a gift and sacrificed it to the tribal leader's pyramid in exchange for the final reinforcements.
However, before the tribe's reinforcements could reach the battlefield, Cleopatra had already defeated Ptolemy XIII, not giving him a chance to get reinforcements at all.
Although it was a primitive tribe, its habits were consistent with the mainstream of the Egyptian civilization. Once the sacrificial items entered the pyramid, they could no longer be taken out.
Yang Rui originally thought that he might be faced with another pyramid expedition and would have to take out the high-level soul equipment from the primitive tribe's pyramid, but the actual situation was not really that troublesome.
It seemed that the threshold for the "big gift package" of the Force Tide was not high. What it tested was the financial ability of the person involved. Just when Yang Rui thought that it was necessary to go to the tribal leader's pyramid and take an adventure, Cleopatra thought that she only needed to write a letter to the tribal leader.
Therefore, this letter was quickly handed over to the current chief of the primitive tribe in the upper reaches of the Ganges. The messenger returned to the palace on the same day and brought back a reply from the chief of that tribe.
The tribal leader's reply was very simple. He wanted money and items. Nominally, he wanted to resolve the hostile relationship and become friendly. However, because Ptolemy XIII was no longer around, and the reinforcements had not been formed, the tribal leader felt that the sacrificial offerings were automatically canceled.
Under such circumstances, the tribal leader thought that it should be a good choice to side with Cleopatra. After all, Ptolemy XIII, who was on the same side as her, was no longer around.
Of course, the price of the goods that the patriarch of the tribe asked for wouldn't be reduced just because he wanted to establish a friendly relationship with the tribe. The price was even more expensive than the equipment that the Shogun Shogun Wazi Wazi Wazi had bought.
The good news was that the Egyptian civilization had more high-level soul items than the Japanese civilization. There were 60,000 sets of Gold grade soul equipment, and each set had three pieces.
Just the number of Gold-tier soul-type items alone was 10,000 more than the Wo Nation's territory, totaling up to 30000 pieces. In addition, there were 30 sets of Golden Solar System Battle Suits, each with a total of seven pieces, totaling up to 140 pieces.
Although the 30 battle suits were named "Golden Sun", they were actually pure Purple Gold soul items, and they were the best of the Purple Gold soul items.
It seemed that the Egyptian civilization was quite rich. Although it was not as good as what Yang Rui had obtained from the three civilizations, it was much better than what he had obtained from the Japanese civilization.
Either that, or the shogunate in the Wo Nation's civilization had a secret stash. There was a possibility, but it was not very high. After all, the deal between the shogunate and Wako Uesugi had already covered this. If the shogunate took out a part of his secret stash in the future during the Force Tide, it would be easily exposed.
Unless there was a part of it that was not in the shogunate's control. The probability of this was also not high. After all, although the shogunate's strength had weakened a lot, the relevant information should still be clear.
In fact, by comparing the number of high-level soul-type items in the Egyptian civilization with the number of related items in the three civilizations, Yang Rui speculated that there should be a difference between the different civilizations.
He did not know what factors this difference depended on. It might have something to do with the size of the population, the size of the territory, the strength of the people, the degree of advancement, the cultural background, and so on.
"Lil 'Ke, the tribal leader's asking price is a bit high. What are you going to do?"
After learning that the "big gift" was indeed in the hands of the primitive tribal leader, Yang Rui was already reassured. As for the price and so on, Yang Rui felt that it was a small problem.
"My dear king, do you think we should ignore the old tribal leader first and keep her in suspense, or give her a very low price to disgust her, or directly send troops to destroy the primitive tribe. Anyway, we need to train our troops now …"
Under Yang Rui's inquiry, Cleopatra tied up her wavy brownish-yellow hair. Her collar was still a little slanted and not pulled up. Because she had just finished busying herself, she looked seductive and charming.
Yang Rui was even a little stunned by this Cleopatra. Even Cleopatra used some methods similar to Wako Uesugi.
In fact, the thoughts of women were very strange. Cleopatra also got a large group of beautiful female servants in the palace. The degree of casualness also opened Yang Rui's eyes. Perhaps it was also a major characteristic of ancient Egypt.
Back to the topic at hand, Cleopatra was indeed one of the people who had been badly maligned in history. In particular, her sinister and deceitful nature had been falsely spread to the point that her reputation had been ruined. The most crucial point was that in history, Cleopatra was not the victor.
Many historical facts were exaggerated by the victors. It was normal for Cleopatra to be defamed. At least in the game, Yang Rui judged that Cleopatra was not the kind of woman recorded in history.
Of course, it could also be because of the compromise. People were forced, and their nature could also be changed by the environment. Who knew how many things Cleopatra had encountered in history that others did not know about?
Cleopatra's words made Yang Rui think of a lot, but Yang Rui could rest assured about her words. She was indeed a heroine. Without Yang Rui saying anything, she thought of three ways to deal with the patriarch of the primitive tribe.
In the end, the two agreed to adopt a relatively pragmatic price to negotiate with the patriarch. Yang Rui could not stay here for too long. He still had many things to prepare.
To Yang Rui's surprise, the additional price he and Cleopatra offered was once again met with an immediate response. The other party agreed without hesitation. The price that Yang Rui and Cleopatra came up with was much lower than the price of the Japanese civilization area.
Yang Rui was naturally happy to see it go so smoothly. However, Cleopatra seemed to have realized something and looked quite reluctant. In the end, Yang Rui stayed for two more days. After the trade agreement was signed, Yang Rui left the Egyptian civilization area.
