"Hey Ushikawa, where are your seeds?"

Niu He was also carried away by the previous joy. It was not until Song Xuan reminded him that he remembered that there was such a thing, and hurriedly asked the tribesmen behind him to bring the animal skin bag.

There are not many seeds, only about seven or eight bowls, and the stones brought are not special. Song Xuan has seen several of them in the ones brought by other tribes, but they still have to be harvested.

"Do you want to replace these with food or something else?"

"Angel, then change them all into bowls!"

This is also the choice of most tribes. After all, this can only be regarded as extra income, and they have not taken it seriously in the first place. It would be good to exchange it for something useful at this time. Of course, the premise of all this must be Only if the tribe has enough food reserves.

He reluctantly gave Niu He five bowls, and including the gift, there were six. This number may not be much to other tribes, but it was a lot to the Niu tribe.

You must know that in spring, a cow can be exchanged for two pots and ten bowls. Unexpectedly, these two small bags are almost worth half a cow.

After the transaction was completed, Ushikawa didn't stay any longer. After all, there were other people on Tengshe's side exchanging things, so he gave up his position and wandered around contentedly.

Yuan Yu is relatively familiar with Niu He. The distance between their two tribes is relatively close, so they have to communicate more frequently. He also has a little understanding of the Niu tribe's predicament this year, so he came up to ask after seeing Niu He. :

"Old Niu, do you have enough food this year? If not, come and borrow some from me!"

Although they are both located downstream, the terrain of the Yuan Tribe is much higher, so the previous heavy rain did not have a big impact on them. Like Teng She, they just cannot go out hunting for most of the month, and the Yuan Tribe has a smaller population. There was a lot, and he soon made up for it.

In addition, a lot of things were exchanged with Teng She just now. The tribe had enough manpower, and more seeds and stones were found. Just the seeds were exchanged for more than a dozen bowls from Teng She.

"Hey, it's been changed!"

"That's good, that's good"

"Have you got the bowl? Teng She's stuff is really good. What is this called...oh...the glaze bowl, right? It's slipperier than a woman's touch!"

The two parties had not seen each other for a long time, and they started talking non-stop when they met. Among so many tribes, Yuan Yu was considered to be the more social one, and he was very good at enlivening the atmosphere. As expected, under his leadership, many people had already After the transaction, the tribes also began to gather around and brag.

Ushikawa didn't talk much, and he seemed to be an honest person, but now that he had met so many brothers, he would chat with them from time to time.

Of course, Niu He didn't tell the other tribes about the deal with Teng She, because when he just left, he heard Song Xuan and the people who came later saying that there was no more salt, and he also heard from other people. As for the amount of salt Teng She had, nearly half of it was given to them, which can be said to be a considerable help.

However, even though he kept a low profile, he still couldn't escape the Wolf Tribe. Seeing that no tribe was coming from behind, Lang Chong also walked over. Even though Ushikawa had the intention to step back, Lang Chong still sat down next to him. , and then asked with a bit of a smile:

"Chief Niu, why don't you come to exchange for salt this year..."

Facing the somewhat sharp Wolf Chong, Ushikawa, who was already not good at words, didn't know how to explain it anymore, so he could only stammer:

"The tribe...the tribe...still...and..."

Faced with such a statement, Lang Chong naturally sneered. He knew how much salt each tribe had. Just the little the cattle tribe exchanged in the spring would not be enough to last until next year.

"Haha, and..."

"Haha, I guess Ushikawa saved some food. Didn't he just exchange some with Soaring Snake..."

Sensing that something was wrong with the atmosphere between the two, Yuan Yu also hurried over to smooth things over, blocking Lang Chong's words.

Yuan Yu still has to give Lang Chong some face. The Yuan Tribe is also one of their biggest customers. For the Niu Tribe, these three melons and two dates and Yuan Yu are really blushing. It's really not worth it.

However, although he did not continue to ask further, the problem could not be eliminated. Niu He also felt a little regretful for a moment. It would have been better if he had not been dazzled by Song Xuan's good conditions just now.

However, if you think about it carefully, even if you give him another chance, he may still be unable to refuse such favorable conditions. At this time, facing Lang Chong, he can only bow his head and remain silent, hoping that it will not have too big an impact on future exchanges. .

Although everyone had a lively exchange here, Teng She had been busy for most of the day, but the harvest was not impressive. Most of what she got in exchange were seeds, stones and some animal skins. There were more monks and less gruel. Everyone wanted to exchange things for food. Moreover, all of them are tribes that rely on hunting for a living, so when it comes to things like animal skins, unless you particularly like them, you generally won’t ask for too much.

The Wolf Tribe is also picky, choosing some of their favorite animal skins. Most of them exchange salt for food. Only Teng She has lower requirements. As long as the quality is good, Song Xuan will let Shi Meng and the others exchange it. .

Although there is no shortage of animal skins in the tribe, there are still too many high-quality ones. These animal skins are not only more complete, but also have a much better thermal insulation effect. Since we now have this ability, it is better to replace them and improve them for everyone. Conditions, after all, there is no work to do in winter. Wear less and move more easily.

After the exchange between the first two tribes, there wasn't much food or anything like that here anymore, so I worked hard for most of the day. In the end, I had to go out for some food, but the income had to be quite good. The stacked animal skin packages were the harvest of this trip, and the total amount of seeds from more than a dozen tribes amounted to hundreds of kilograms.

Even if you remove the other messy seeds, you can still grow about ten acres of rice. If other useful seeds are found in this large pile of seeds, it will be even more cost-effective.

Teng She only lost about a hundred bowls and dozens of kilograms of salt, which was still worth it compared to this.

However, what surprised Song Xuan was that few people were interested in the pottery pots that he originally thought would be very easy to sell. Only a few powerful tribes wanted one or two, and they were confused when they wanted to change them.

It seems that the price of clay pots is still a bit too high. At least at this stage, these tribes cannot afford it. Pots are not as good as bowls. The price of bowls is set relatively low, so it is okay to give them away. A pot can be used It was worth seven or eight bowls, but Song Xuan was still a little reluctant to part with it.

But fortunately, even if the items are not replaced, Tengshe will not lose money. As for the price reduction, it will definitely not reduce the price. Even if it is exhausted, it will not reduce the price by a penny. If it lowers the price this time, then the business will be bad in the future. It's not easy to do.

Anyway, pottery is also a wearable part, and it will inevitably encounter bumps after long-term use. It is only a matter of time before it breaks, and I don’t have to worry about no one buying it in the future.

I have been busy until the afternoon and then completed the transactions with all the tribes that came over. This year was affected by heavy rain, so the transactions were not big, but the final result made most of the tribes quite satisfied, at least they got what they wanted. There is no need to go hungry in the coming winter. It is not a big problem to save a little and carry it through.

Most of the tribes also exchanged some pottery from Teng She. After all, just the seeds and ores can be exchanged for seven or eight bowls. If you add some other things, it is not a problem to round up the whole number. The number of snakes taken out here is limited, and most tribes exchange them at the wolf tribe, so they usually come here to exchange two or three bowls to replenish.

As for Teng Snake's transaction with the Wolf Tribe this time, it was quite simple. As a big user at the time, Teng Snake did not exchange salt with them this time, which was very disappointing for Lang Chong. Even because Teng Snake took away some of the salt. Regarding business, I was also very unhappy.

However, no matter how unhappy they were, business still had to be done. The seeds and stones they collected were exchanged for a batch of pottery from Teng She. There were ten bowls and two pots. It was also the largest on Teng She's side at this trading conference. customer.

Seeing that the work was almost done, Song Xuan and Shi Meng also joined in. There was not much time left, and everyone had to go back to the tribe tomorrow. This relationship still needed to be fought.

Looking around, Song Xuan suddenly realized that there seemed to be something wrong with the number of tribes, and then checked again carefully:

"Where's Yangyang? Why hasn't the Yang tribe come yet?"

It wasn't until Song Xuan asked everyone that the surrounding leaders discovered that the Sheep Tribe had not come over.

"Yes, isn't Laoyang usually very positive?"

"They're not far away, they can't be..."

Then everyone focused their attention on Shui Yun. After all, he was responsible for informing each tribe, so if there was any unexpected situation, Shui Yun would definitely be the first to know. Song Xuan also looked at Shui Yun with some confusion.

Shuiyun nodded first, and then said with great certainty:

"It's nothing. I told Yang Yang directly, and he even said he was coming!"

The Sheep Tribe usually doesn't have a high sense of presence. Since their population is not large to begin with, and they came here relatively late, only a few years earlier than Teng Snake, they have always been a small and transparent existence here. Otherwise, It’s not like he didn’t come, no one has noticed until now.

After hearing that Shuiyun said that the notification had been in place, everyone didn't take it to heart anymore. This kind of thing has happened before. If all kinds of things are sufficient, there is really no need to make such a trip again.

In everyone's memory, there are only a dozen or twenty people in the Sheep Tribe, which makes sense.

However, Song Xuan still felt that something was wrong in his heart. If he didn't come, he could have said it directly when he contacted Shuiyun. There was no need to agree and not come.
