It wasn't until Song Xuan finished eating that he heard Wangcai's "Woo-Woo" sound coming from the mouth of the valley.
Listening to Wangcai's voice, which seemed very strenuous, Song Xuan held a bowl of soup and walked outside while drinking.
When Song Xuan saw Wangcai's figure, he was stunned. The soup in his hand almost spilled on the ground. If the bowl wasn't too hot and woke him up, he would have been stunned at the mouth of the valley for a while.
I saw Wangcai's small body dragging a rabbit that was almost one third of its size, walking towards the valley. After seeing Song Xuan, he dropped the prey in his mouth and ran happily Come over.
Song Xuan was still worried that Wangcai would lose his hunting instinct in the afternoon, and wanted to train it more. Unexpectedly, he would be surprised this evening, and he rubbed Wangcai's little head, which was rubbing against his calf.
Song Xuan felt that he underestimated it a little too much. It seemed that someone had been there to make it all the way. This afternoon, when he went out to run wild by himself, he became more powerful.
Although Wangcai looked very excited after dragging such a big prey such a long way, he didn't have much strength left. He coquettishly played with Song Xuan for a while and then lay on the ground.
Song Xuan had no choice but to hold it with one hand, grab the still warm hare with the other, and walk towards the station.
Looking at the rabbit in Song Xuan's hand, Shi Meng pointed at Wangcai in disbelief and asked:
"Angel, is this Wangcai captured?"
Not only did Song Xuan find it a bit magical, everyone in the tribe was also very surprised. After all, although Wangcai was a wolf, he usually behaved quite docilely in the tribe and did not show much wildness. It's far from mature yet.
This rabbit is considered a big one even in the wild. It is indeed very challenging for the underage Wangcai, especially since it has never hunted alone.
Seeing that Wangcai still had this ability, Song Xuan was also very happy. Instead of sharing the rabbit with others, he took out a part of the rabbit separately, cooked it and put it in Wangcai's bowl, and left the rest for him to catch. Got enough food for a few days.
Although Wangcai is a very pure wolf, he was captured by everyone after he was born not long ago. After weaning, Song Xuan has mainly fed him cooked food, so he has adapted to it now that he has eaten so much. Although I am not averse to the taste of cooked food, I still prefer to eat cooked food.
In the past few days when everyone was refining salt, Wangcai would go to the wild to look for prey every day. He would wander around until dark every day before coming back. At first, Song Xuan was a little worried, but when the time came, he would come back obediently. This is true regardless of whether there is something caught or not, so I just let him go.
After all, he is still a little wolf, so he doesn’t catch something every day. On average, it takes two days to catch a rabbit. The next few caught are not as big as the first one, but they are enough for it to eat by itself. It was more than enough, and there was even more. Song Xuan also stewed a pot of soup for everyone to have a taste.
Wangcai is also perfect at catching prey. He comes back with his neck in his mouth every day. There are no wounds on other parts of his body, so it is very convenient to deal with it.
Seeing that Wangcai was able to catch prey by himself, Song Xuan also felt as if a dog had just grown up in our family.
After working hard for ten days and harvesting nearly fifty kilograms of salt, Song Xuan took everyone back to the tribe.
Although the quantity is not very large, it is enough to give it to other tribes for a taste. There may even be a surplus, and maybe some of it can be sold.
At the same time, it’s time to notify other tribes. Trading conferences are usually notified one month in advance. After all, it takes more than ten days for some tribes to travel between each other, and so many nearby tribes are not in one place, but in the southeast. In the northwest, there are mountains and rivers.
Although there is a ship, it is impossible to get all notifications in less than ten or twenty days.
According to the rules, this trading conference is still held by the Blackwater Tribe, but now that Shuiyun and the others are members of the Tengshe Tribe, it naturally falls under Song Xuan's control.
However, Shui Yun was still leading the team. Although the other tribes would know about Black Water joining Soaring Snake sooner or later, Song Xuan decided not to spread the news openly for the time being.
The strength of the Soaring Snake Tribe has grown very rapidly in just one year. Although a large number of them are former prisoners of the Black Feather Tribe, the addition of Shuiyun and others will inevitably make the remaining tribes have other ideas.
It's good to believe that it was caused by floods, but I'm afraid they misunderstood that Teng She wanted to dominate here, and then the subsequent transactions might not be easy to do.
Just like the relationship between the Black Feather Tribe and the Soaring Snake Tribe, there may be some things involved. The Black Feather Tribe has no unnecessary thoughts, but in the view of the Soaring Snake, Wu Yu has basically done nothing good. Once this happens, In such a situation, some words cannot be said clearly.
So it’s better not to let them know at this stage. As for the future, I believe it will be easier to accept it slowly.
However, although Shuiyun led the team, there were still people from Teng She in the team.
In the past, Teng She sent pottery to various tribes, and the leader was Shi Yong, but he was still the leader after all. In the future, a dedicated person would still have to be responsible for better communication with other tribes.
There are so many people in Teng She, so naturally there are some who are more social among them. Shi Feng is the one who is more eloquent and can make friends with people from other tribes very quickly. He happened to be one of the people who went to deliver pottery. .
So this time, I asked him to follow Shui Yun to learn a little more, and at the same time, he learned the road again. The communication was fine, as long as he was neither humble nor arrogant, but the roads to and from these dozen tribes were really awkward once or twice. You must be able to remember it.
Since Shuiyun and the others joined, Soaring Snake now has no shortage of boats. Although there are only eight people, they are still divided into two boats. According to their own words, it will be more spacious this way.
Although Tengshe's boat was larger, it was designed to seat eight people. Although it could fit more people, it would be a squeeze. The fewer people there are, the more comfortable it will be.
Maybe it's a bit more tiring when going upstream, but fortunately there are only a few people and some living supplies on the boat, and it's not heavy. There isn't much water in the river now, so the flow speed is naturally slower. It's almost enough for four people.
Of course, the location of the trading conference is still in the small valley from before.
Although the trading conference is held by different tribes every year, the location is very fixed. They are all in those places that have been used for countless years. The tribes responsible for notifying other tribes choose the ones closest to their own tribe. good.
In fact, the overall distance difference is not big. Each location is as close as possible to as many tribes as possible, so that everyone will not have so much trouble running around.
After they left, Tengshe naturally returned to his daily routine, only with a few fewer manpower.
For the upcoming trading conference, Song Xuan also asked everyone to prepare. After all, it will be winter soon. Although there will not be too many tribes exchanging food, there is still a surplus after all, and they may be able to replace it by then. Some pottery.
Having learned the lesson from last time, I naturally have to bring more bowls and pots this time. The pottery in the tribe is all for my own use. Song Xuan has never let the stones burn too much. Otherwise, if they let the stones burn, it is estimated that these two The warehouse has long been packed to the brim.
After the existing pottery was distributed twice, each person could only have one or two pieces, which also had to deal with the normal wear and tear, so Song Xuan asked the stones to be fired again, and they were exchanged like last time. The pottery doesn't have to be as perfect as the one you use.
Although the quality is similar, the appearance does not need to be carefully crafted. Song Xuan also has his own Xiaojiujiu. The worse ones and the better ones can be divided into two types and exchanged. Song Xuan still hopes for more perfect pottery. Sell more money back.
However, Shi Shi is still the kind of person who pursues perfection. Although Song Xuan asked him not to do too well, the pottery he fired was basically the same as before by hand. You must know that after having the runner, making pottery blanks, no matter what Both speed and quality are much better.
It is estimated that there will be certain difficulties if he does it too poorly. There are still some differences, such as the flatness of the surface and the fact that these are unglazed, but they can still form differences.
Glaze is quite important in pottery. It not only makes the pottery harder, but also has many benefits for daily cleaning. Of course, most tribes in this era are not so particular. It is hard to say whether to wash it after eating.
But it does look good. Although it is just a thin layer of black glaze, it will still look more translucent under the sun. For people with status in various tribes, this is definitely their best choice, so Song Xuan He also asked Shi Shi to make a batch of glazed pottery bowls.
The method is also very simple. Just use grass and wood gray water to brush a few layers on the pottery base. It is enough to have a thin layer of glaze. You don’t have to wait for a while like the Tengshe Tribe. In short, it is a principle. If you can reduce other people's things, you can reduce them. Of course, this prerequisite is to ensure a certain quality. Song Xuan thinks that he is not so evil.
In addition to pottery, Song Xuan also planned to take out some other things, including relatively precious animal skins. Compared with other tribes, Teng She had a higher chance of hunting these prey, and most tribes did not dare to provoke them. A relatively large beast.
Although Shi Meng and the others would try to avoid contact with them, they were not too afraid of them, so they would bring one back from time to time, so as time went by, there would naturally be more of these animal skins.
