I sighed all the way, and after more than a day, I finally arrived at the place where I traded before.
In the meantime, everyone even rowed a boat to gain some speed, otherwise we really wouldn’t have been able to get here a day early. After all, we are the host, so we still have to make the necessary preparations. At least we have to clean the roads and the caves where the goods are stored. This is also the case over the years. rule.
After all the busy work, it was almost getting dark, so we just set up camp on the spot, rested for the night, and waited for other tribes to come over tomorrow.
For most tribes, the time is usually very accurate. After all, it is not the first time to participate, and there is a boat, so the speed is relatively stable. If you really don't have time, you can also row hard for a while like Soaring Snake. , the combined speed of the two is quite fast.
However, for the tribes living downstream, it will be somewhat troublesome. After all, going upstream will be a bit laborious even if the river is shallow now.
Early the next morning, Song Xuan was woken up by the noisy sound, and Shi Meng's big-faced plate appeared in front of Song Xuan at the right time:
"Angel, a tribe is coming!"
"Okay, let Shuiyun and the others pick them up first!"
Shi Meng still forgot his role. Now Shuiyun and the others represented the Blackwater Tribe, so Teng She only had to act as good guests.
After Song Xuan finished washing, he specially warned everyone, at least to ensure that no flaws would be exposed in front of other tribes.
After having salt in the tribe, Song Xuan became more sophisticated. At least the conditions for washing every day were much better than before.
In this era, most people don't care about their personal image. They have yellow teeth and a foul mouth. These are standard features, but Song Xuan still can't accept it. After all, it is a habit developed over many years.
After coming to Tengshe, toothpaste, toothbrush, soap and other things must have been gone. Even so, Song Xuan would still break off a branch and poke it every day, and sometimes dip it in charcoal, which could be regarded as a deep cleaning.
Although the charcoal cleaning effect is good, it is a bit scary to use. Not to mention the black water in your mouth when you use it, there is a strange smell, and the taste is also very bad.
But it's much better after having salt. Sticking a little salt on a tree branch is almost the same as the ancients. Except for the salty taste in your mouth when brushing your teeth, there is nothing else.
Song Xuan also wanted to promote it among the tribes, but only during the day or two he emphasized, everyone might implement it more thoroughly, and usually just gargle two mouthfuls of water and then do it half-heartedly.
After going back and forth, Song Xuan didn't want to force everyone, as long as it was not too sloppy, and as time went by, he gradually accepted it.
However, for the children in the tribe, Song Xuan requires them to wash themselves every day, so it is better to cultivate the children's behavioral habits.
Unlike these adult primitive people, they have never been so particular since they were young. Suddenly asking them to wash themselves several times a day is indeed a bit difficult for them.
After arriving, a few pleasantries were naturally inevitable. The first person to arrive this time was the Xiong Tribe. Song Xuan was still very impressed by this large family.
"Chief Xiongshan, what good things have you brought this time!"
Xiong Shan was still as enthusiastic as ever, and he came up with a bear hug.
"Hahaha, God Envoy, we have found a lot of seeds!"
This is what Song Xuan was waiting for. Unexpectedly, Xiong Shan got right to the point.
There is no need to wait for the other tribes to arrive before proceeding with this kind of transaction that has been agreed upon by both parties. Song Xuan watched anxiously as Xiong Shan ordered the people of the Xiong tribe to open several packages that he carried with him.
Sure enough, each package contained a large number of seeds, and after the last animal skin was opened, there were many stones of various shapes inside.
Naturally, they can't check each one in a hurry now. They can only take a quick glance. Most of them are still the same rice seeds that were shown to them before.
Although there is no shortage of rice seeds in the tribe, there is still a demand for quality and the specificity of different seeds.
So according to the previously discussed exchange ratio, he took the bowls and measured them. As long as four bowls were filled, Song Xuan asked Shi Yong to put on a pottery bowl.
There is no Kengxiong Mountain here in Song Xuan. Unlike in the past when grain was collected, Song Xuan used a small wooden stick to scrape off all the protruding parts.
Looking at Song Xuan's actions, Xiong Shan smiled happily. This way, there will definitely be more bowls that can be exchanged. Even though the Xiong Tribe was the tribe with the most exchanges last time, it couldn't handle the large number of people, even dozens of them. After the bowl was brought back to the tribe, only half of the people could use it, so the gap was still quite large.
After scooping out all the seeds, there are exactly twenty bowls, which can be exchanged for five bowls. Although the number is not much, if you want to exchange it for meat, it is a lot.
The remaining stones made Song Xuanyi feel a little embarrassed before. After all, it was agreed at that time that everything brought over would have to be exchanged with them.
But Song Xuan is a little uncertain about this ratio. If it is based on weight, then this pack of stones is heavier than the previous seeds. If it is based on volume, Song Xuan is embarrassed to say, although there are many stones. , but they are relatively small, no more than seven or eight bowls.
After thinking about it, Song Xuan asked tentatively:
"Chief Xiongshan, look at this stone, how about replacing four kinds of stones with one bowl!"
"sure!"
Song Xuan thought it was going to be more of a fuss, but he didn't expect Xiong Shan to accept it as soon as he said it.
For Xiong Shan and the others, these stones are easier to find than seeds. When we usually hunt, we can see different ones and just pick them up. Basically, there is no need to spend time alone.
Even if it was carried all the way, it didn't take much effort. It was all placed on the boat anyway. When Song Xuan said that the four kinds of stones could be exchanged for a bowl, Xiong Shan thought it was still a good deal.
Although Song Xuan didn't see any special stones at a glance, he still used three bowls to replace all the dozen kinds of stones. Xiong Shan saw that Song Xuan kept his word, there were originally fourteen types of stones. But in the end I only had three bowls.
Seeing that all the things had been received by Song Xuan, Xiong Shan continued:
"Angel, let's change twelve bowls this time!"
"Well... I want two more pots!"
Song Xuan originally thought that Xiongshan would be as generous as Spring, but he was a little disappointed. In addition to the seeds and stones exchanged, there were only twenty bowls in total. The Xiong tribe was like this, so what else? The tribes can be imagined.
But mosquitoes, no matter how small they are, are still considered meat, and this is not a mosquito anymore. Just make less money. After all, winter is coming soon, and I don’t think everyone can spare much food.
Heavier things are placed in the cave or directly on the boat. Since the two parties have reached a verbal agreement here, they are not worried about going back on it.
After the transaction between the two parties was completed, all major tribes came over one after another. Song Xuan accepted all the seeds, stones, and even special soil they brought, without even having time to take a closer look. .
But even with just a cursory glance, Song Xuan still saw several stones that might be some kind of ore. The pure white and pure black ones were obviously not quite right, but the people from the tribe he brought over were right in front of him. Song Xuan You can't leave them to look at them carefully, you can only put them in the bag behind you, and after you are done, you can see if they are the things you imagined.
And if you really want what you want and you act too excited all of a sudden, it will be a bit bad. If you raise the price and pay back the money, you will like the other party very much when you see it. It is not impossible to break the contract. Even if you get the stone, But we still have to wait for the specific location to be contacted later, and it won’t be nice to be taken advantage of by then.
Although there are more than a dozen tribes, the most popular ones are only two or three. Apart from Soaring Snake, they are the Wolf Tribe and the Kite Tribe. There are more people here.
One of them sells salt, and the other sells food. The Kite tribe has a relatively large population, especially the male population, so there are naturally more things to hunt. Food is basically not in short supply for them, so they will bring them to every trading meeting. Some come out to meet the needs of other tribes and at the same time exchange for what they need.
Before the Soaring Snake Tribe joined, the Kite Tribe had always been the center of the major tribes. Even now, its status is very high, one of the best.
After all, only their tribe can produce a large amount of food, which is what other tribes really lack.
Whether it is salt or pottery, it can only be regarded as the icing on the cake. Even if it is salt, at least you will not die if you don't eat people for a period of time, and you can also replenish it through meat, but it will make you look a little weaker.
But it’s different without food. People will really starve to death, so although there are the most people on Tengshe’s side, after everyone comes, they will go to the Kite tribe no matter what, especially For smaller tribes, they need to exchange their food first. If there is any leftover later, it will naturally be salt and pottery, and pottery is even the third priority.
The other tribes basically had no access, and tribes like the Zhu tribe, which did not have enough food, could only exchange various cherished things. But this time, they were not as impulsive as in the spring. Most of them Or some things like animal skins and horns.
Song Xuan looked at the Yuan tribe and his group, and felt a little shamelessly that they were similar to him and were all good people.
Although there is a gap between me and them, I am still relatively conscientious, and the quality of the things I give them is not bad. Although it cannot save lives, it is still very effective in improving the quality of life.
After each tribe arrives, Song Xuan will ask Shi Yong to take one out of the glazed bowl and give it to their leader, which can be regarded as a small increase in goodwill.
