"God's envoy...this..."
Song Xuan was already a little moved when he saw Yan Shui, but he still hesitated. Although he could roughly guess what he was worried about, since he was so hesitant, it was obvious that the possibility of success was still very high, so Song Xuan did not hesitate. , directly used the ultimate move.
"Chief Zanshui, look at twenty bowls, how about ten sheep?"
This condition is already very good. Just twenty bowls are worth ten sheep. If all are converted into food, this can feed the Zong tribe for at least ten days and a half.
"(⊙o⊙)!"
Hearing the conditions offered by Song Xuan, Yan Shui's eyes suddenly widened. Although he was struggling just now, he also knew that Song Xuan was very generous, but he didn't expect to be so generous.
Those twenty bowls alone were enough to make his heart flutter.
You must know that the Zhu tribe has participated in so many exchange meetings, but the bowls they exchanged back are only about twenty, otherwise they would not be reluctant to use them.
Song Xuan's mouth was directly worth their frugality for more than half a year.
However, the harvest of the Zhu tribe last year was not bad, and the food was not very scarce, so after thinking about it, Zhen Shui said to Song Xuan:
"Angel, can you exchange five more sheep for ten bowls?"
"Okay! It's settled then!"
After Song Xuan saw that he had stated his conditions, Yan Shui was stunned for a long time, thinking that he was a little dissatisfied with his conditions, and was about to give him more pressure, but he didn't expect that it was because of this.
Not to mention that pottery was not important to Teng She. Even if he had some status, he had to find a way to satisfy him for the time being.
"...The divine envoy..."
"Don't talk about this matter outside for now..."
Song Xuan naturally understands Yan Shui's concerns. In addition to fear of causing dissatisfaction from the surrounding tribes, such an exchange can easily make other tribes jealous. Since both parties are satisfied, it is fine to keep it in mind. There is no need to publicize it. .
After the two reached an agreement, Zanshui returned to his tribe, apparently to do ideological work.
Although the strength of the Zhu tribe is much inferior to that of Soaring Snake, everyone in their own tribe must have a special plot. When he heard that the leader wanted him to go to Soaring Snake, his eyes suddenly turned red.
Shi Duo became even more nervous at the side. He knew about Song Xuan's plan. After all, Song Xuan had promised her from the beginning, but at this time she was also afraid that Bian Bai would not agree to the matter.
Although girls are relatively more likely to be successful in blind dates, and there are still two people left who are single, but compared to others, the white one makes her more excited, and the two of them also have a certain relationship foundation at this time.
But after Yan Shui passed by, he was moved by emotion and reason, and Yan Bai gradually accepted the deal. After all, the conditions offered by Teng She were so generous. Not only Yan Shui, but also he was obviously He was helpless and refused to sacrifice himself, but it improved the life of the entire tribe quite well.
"Okay, leader, I'll go there!"
Shi Duo also breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Zhi Bai agreed.
After Yan Bai said this, he gritted his teeth and seemed to want to make a decision immediately. He took Shi Duo's hand and wanted to walk towards Teng She.
Yan Shui had quick eyesight and quick hands, and stopped the two of them directly:
"Don't go there yet, wait until tomorrow!"
Although he didn't know why, now that the leader had spoken, Zhi Bai could only sit back.
However, it was obvious that he was not in a high mood after coming back, and Shi Duo was comforting him.
Song Xuan felt relieved when he saw that the situation was settled. At least few people here would go back on what they had promised.
Not long after, each tribe had finalized the compensation matters. In fact, there was nothing to discuss. Just follow the rules. Now it was just a matter of confirmation.
At the same time, it is also the last chance for these boys and girls. If they are still a little dissatisfied, it is still too late to regret it. When everything is settled, there will be no chance.
At this point, this business blind date conference has finally been successfully completed.
Everyone was also happy. They lit a bonfire, took out the food they brought, and started cooking.
As the organizer, the Bear Tribe was not stingy. They brought over a fresh deer. It looked like it had not been dead for a long time. It was probably already prepared when they arrived. It might even have been hunted around.
Ordinary tribes do not have this strength. It is quite good to come over in advance to clean up and receive a reception. Only these powerful tribes can spare so much time and prepare such good things to entertain everyone.
The cooking time was also an opportunity for these boys and girls to show off themselves. They began to sing and dance around the bonfire.
Song Xuan had experienced this scene many times, and he was not as embarrassed as he was at the beginning. He even jumped up at Xiong Shan's invitation.
The dance here is not that particular, the purpose is to release yourself, so just do whatever makes you happy.
It is rare for everyone to get together. Although there are some intrigues, overall we get along quite well. Otherwise, this kind of trading conference would not be able to last for so many years.
Although everyone was together, they still separated during the meal. Of course, this did not mean that each tribe was separated, but that they were separated from the boys and girls who had just had a blind date.
Let them get acquainted with each other again. After all, there are more important parts waiting for them in the evening.
Only then did Song Xuan remember that he still had something important to say, so he quickly took out the limestone from his bag, walked to Yuan Yu and said:
"Yuan Yu, do you still remember this stone?"
Obviously, Yuan Yu had forgotten about this incident a long time ago, but he was the one who took the stone and exchanged it with Teng She. After listening to Song Xuan's words, he asked tentatively:
"Angel, is this what our tribe exchanged at that time?"
Seeing that Yuan Yu had indeed forgotten about this matter, Song Xuan's heart suddenly sank. Could it be that he finally found the clue, but then lost it again?
Although the exchange was made well, everyone didn't worry about it. If it couldn't be exchanged for something, they probably wouldn't even look at it in the wild.
"Angel, what's wrong with this stone? Isn't it working?"
Yuan Yu thought there was something wrong with the stone and that Song Xuan was coming to investigate.
"No, I want to know where you learned this!"
"I want to see it!"
Seeing that Song Xuan was not here to return the goods, Yuan Yu immediately relaxed and took the stone from Song Xuan's hand and looked at it carefully. Although he did not have a deep memory of this stone, after all, Song Xuan also asked about it when they exchanged it. matter, so my memory is still somewhat vague.
After looking at it for a while, he murmured:
"It seems that Tomei or who found it?"
"Angel, I seem to have an impression that someone from our tribe should have found her and brought her back, but she is not here now. Do you think I should go back and ask about it before informing you?"
Song Xuan came here just for this matter, and he didn't want to run back and forth, and he also wanted to finalize the matter before the rice was planted.
"No, how about I go back with you?!"
Yuan Yu did not refuse Song Xuan's proposal. After all, it would save them some trouble. There was still a certain distance between the Yuan Tribe and Teng Snake. It would take almost ten days to send two people back and forth. It’s time, and it’s best to save this time.
The two parties agreed that tomorrow, Song Xuan would go to the Yuan tribe with Yuan Yu.
After coming to this era, Song Xuan has not been to many places, and the only tribe he has visited is Heishui.
Song Xuan was still curious about the relatively powerful Kite Tribe, but starting from here, it didn't take much time and could arrive in two or three days.
At this point, most of the mission here has been basically completed. Whether it is an exchange or a blind date, the exchange with the Niu tribe has been successfully completed, and they are just waiting for Soaring Snake to come over and pull the animals.
If you go to the Yuan Tribe like this, you will be able to return to the tribe soon. Regardless of whether you find it or not, Song Xuan will definitely go back first. Even if you find it, he will only get some samples at most. He will definitely be there in a short time. It will not be developed on a large scale.
Anyway, the temporary demand in the tribe is not that big, just wait until it is needed. If the momentum is too big now, it will attract the attention of the Kite tribe. Even if they can't use it, they should try to cause as little trouble as possible. Better.
Yuan Yu didn't care much, after all, in his opinion, these stones all looked the same, there wasn't much difference. As for what Song Xuan wanted to do with him, he didn't care too much. Since Song Xuan was coming, he didn't care too much. Happy to welcome, Song Xuan still has a good reputation among the surrounding tribes, especially under his command, Soaring Snake successfully defended against the attack of the Black Feather Tribe.
Yuan Yu has always wanted to ask Song Xuan for advice, but he has never gotten the chance. This time is a good time. In Yuan Yu's view, the two tribes are relatively strong among the surrounding tribes. , although it is not known that Heishui is already a member of Teng She, but even if they are excluded, Teng She now has more than a hundred people, and he is also a very leading presence among the surrounding tribes.
The exchanges between the two parties will obviously yield more than those with a small tribe with only forty or fifty people.
Since we are all leaving tomorrow, we eat in a hurry.
After eating, the sky had already darkened. Everyone picked up the bedding they brought and spread it on the ground. After the sun set, the temperature dropped significantly. Although they would not rest now, there were beasts It can be more comfortable if the skin is used as a cushion underneath.
After cleaning up, a group of people looked at the boys and girls not far away with great gossip.
Then Xiong Shan walked over and said something. The boys and girls immediately stood up and returned to their respective tribes.
Looking a little embarrassed, they picked up their bedding and then gathered together again.
Song Xuan knew what the next step was, but what he didn't expect was that it was so direct. Are so many people going to be together? This made him feel somewhat inappropriate.
But fortunately, it was not as bad as he thought. The blind date successfully walked together, and then dispersed, each looking for a place to rest.
As long as they don't have a collective party in the middle of the valley, that would be too obscene.
What follows is the most important moment in the lives of these boys and girls.
However, everyone was still a little shy after all, and most of the places they were looking for were relatively dark. Even though there were bonfires everywhere, it was impossible to see clearly what they were doing. The gossip ended here, and they returned to chatting and nonsense.
The distance was not far, and Song Xuan could still vaguely hear some sounds coming from him. It was obvious that everyone had already started to take action.
Only then did Song Xuan understand that it was no wonder that Xiong Shan and the others came so early. When they came here yesterday, everything in the valley had been tidied up, but it was different from the previous ones. This valley was originally relatively narrow, but there were many gaps left. Less wood and stones are obviously for these boys and girls.
After all, it was the first time. Even though the tribe had instilled some indoctrination into them, it didn’t take too long. By the time everyone was ready to take a rest, the moans had long since disappeared, but whispers were still unavoidable. It seemed that this was They are exchanging feelings.
It has always been a traditional habit for them to complete major life events after going on a blind date. They use the sky as a quilt and the earth as a bed. Under the witness of everyone, they fully release themselves in the wild and complete their transformation into adults.
Song Xuan was an adult after all, so this set of rules made him feel itchy. Fortunately, he had already raised his threshold when he lived in a cave before. The rhythm at that time was much more lively than here. The small cave Amid it, moans of pleasure kept coming and going, sometimes lasting until midnight. After thinking about it for a while, I soon fell into a deep sleep.
The environment of this valley is also quite good. There was no wind even at night, so Song Xuan slept quite well. Although there were nearly a hundred people crowded in the small valley, it was still very quiet at night. It was the time when he got up. It’s different. Once one person gets up, the virus spreads quickly.
Song Xuankai stretched and started to wash up. After breakfast today, they will go back to their respective tribes.
"Ushikawa, you go back to the tribe first. After our people return, they will go to your place and bring the animals back!"
Song Xuan still underestimated the cattle tribe. He originally thought that the cattle tribe would kill a few in winter, but the result was that the number of cattle increased instead of decreasing, and he took advantage of the spring to catch two more animals.
According to Ushikawa, there were one cow, two deer, and eight sheep.
The number is indeed quite large. In fact, Ushikawa also regretted agreeing to exchange all the animals with Soaring Snake. Now the Niu tribe, at least, has no problem in terms of survival. It is no longer a problem to use these animals that have been raised for more than a year. I felt a little bit reluctant to see him off.
But this was something that was agreed upon. If Song Xuan hadn't taken the initiative to send salt and food last year, they wouldn't have been able to survive, and they would have still had to kill these animals.
However, although he felt a little regretful, since he had promised what he had promised, he must definitely do it. After listening to Song Xuan's words, Ushikawa said directly:
"No, no, God's envoy, we brought him here when we came!"
"Brought it here? Where is it?"
Song Xuan looked at the riverside, but there were no traces of these animals, and the cattle tribe was coming. How could one boat hold so many things? It was a bit crowded just to carry these people.
"In the river..."
It took a lot of effort to explain clearly that when the Niu tribe came, it turned out that the cattle tribe came with not just one boat, but four boats. These were also the boats owned by their tribe, and they were all launched this time.
And there were more than just the few people coming now. There were four people in each boat, and a total of sixteen people were taken, which was almost catching up with Teng Snake.
In addition to people, there were only animals on that boat. They originally wanted to send them directly to Teng She. This was also because they were afraid that Teng She would regret it. Niu He would regret selling them all, but if Teng She If you don't accept it, you will be even more worried.
After all, these animals are also a very important part of his plan. With these animals in exchange for food, the cattle tribe will have enough energy to capture more animals. By then, they will be able to operate smoothly and gradually realize the goal of cattle tribe. What the tribe has always thought.
But when they arrived at the place where the Tengshe tribe's river and the main stream converged, the people of the Niu tribe thought that a boatload of people would come directly to participate in the exchange meeting, and the other three boats would come with livestock.
However, due to the insufficient number of people who came, most of them were participating in the exchange and blind date meeting, there were not enough people to row the boats. Moreover, the animals on the original four boats were placed on three small boats, which seemed a bit crowded, so we had to keep the original arrangement. They waited on the ground, letting Ushikawa and the others come over first, and then they would send them to the Soaring Snake Tribe together after everything was done here.
Song Xuan thought that his tribe needed work in this area, but now Niu He directly saved Teng Snake a lot of trouble.
It's all delivered to your door. It seems a little unreasonable if I don't go back. Moreover, he didn't want other tribes to know about the limestone. Seeing this, he could only talk to Yuan Yu again and tell him that he would go back to the tribe first and then go to their tribe.
Although Yuan Yu felt a little regretful, she still said very generously:
"Okay, God allows you to come directly!"
But then I thought again:
"Angel, do you know where our tribe is?"
"I know, I went there during the first exchange. Isn't there a Yangyang? If it doesn't work, just let him take it with him!"
"Okay, haha, envoy, then I'll be waiting for you in the tribe!"
Yuan Yu had forgotten that when the pottery was being exchanged, Teng Snake made a trip to each tribe.
As for what he said, if he was waiting for Song Xuan in the tribe, Song Xuan simply ignored it. How could a leader of a tribe be so idle?
It's hard to say how long it will take to get back and forth, so the two parties didn't agree on a specific time. Song Xuan asked Yuan Yu to go back first to understand the situation. If he was not in the tribe, it would also be okay to ask their people who stayed in the tribe to take them there. .
Moreover, the ugly things were said at the beginning. If they couldn't be found, the Kite Tribe would not only have to come over and notify Teng She, but also make some compensation.
Song Xuan spent a lot of money to collect so many useless stones, and now the only one that might be of some use is if he can't find the source, Song Xuan will naturally be a little dissatisfied.
Yuan Yu agreed wholeheartedly. Even if he forgot the place, he would definitely have to put in some effort to find it. After all, this was what was agreed upon at the time. Although most tribes may not take it to heart, once If it is publicized, it will not be a good reputation for the Kite Tribe, or at least it will be known as taking things without doing anything.
After the compensation items were given to each of them, each tribe began to return. Looking at the happy faces of the two people who had spent the night, Song Xuan knew that there must have been some mischief last night.
This time when he returned to the team, the Niu Tribe was added to the team, and there was no way to hide the exchange with the Zhi Tribe from him. However, Zhen Shui still found an excuse, saying that the situation in his tribe was not very good, so he could only do this. As a last resort, bring some food back from Soaring Snake.
But after a little thought, you can see that this excuse is full of loopholes. After all, the twenty bowls he moved from Teng She's side are the most conspicuous.
Ushikawa also saw through it but didn't say anything. Since it was a deal that satisfied both tribes, he naturally couldn't say anything more. Moreover, Teng She had a more important deal with them. Since he didn't want to say it, he pointed it out. In addition to letting Apart from being embarrassed for a few people, they didn't get much benefit.
When they reached the river where Teng Snake returned home, the two tribes separated from the Zong tribe. As for the transaction between them, the Zanshui River was unknown. It was only known that the Niu tribe needed to go to Teng Snake. For Niu tribe, He also roughly knew the situation of the tribe. After all, he borrowed a lot of things from Soaring Snake last year, and he thought he was borrowing food again this time.
Three tribes and two secrets made Song Xuan feel a little funny. When Zanshui and his party completely disappeared from sight, Song Xuan said to Niu He:
"Niuhe, let's go and pull the animals!"
With so many animals, it was obvious that Niuhe and the others did not dare to be exposed casually. Although this big river usually had no people coming and going for half a year, it was the busiest time during this period.
It was good luck not to encounter other tribes when they came, so the people who stayed behind not only hid the boats, but also took their animals to a hidden jungle.
Fortunately, the cattle tribe has made sufficient preparations for this trip and will not let these animals freeze in the wild.
After searching for a while, Ushikawa finally found their boat. The boat was placed in a piece of reeds. Although the reeds were withered, it was still difficult to find anything fishy in them without looking carefully.
After landing from Reed, he walked towards the jungle in the distance. It could be seen that Niu He was also very careful. At least Song Xuan knew that he was in this area, but he still couldn't see the specific location.
After walking for almost half an hour, they finally reached the edge of the forest. Then Ushikawa covered his mouth with his hands and made a sound into the forest:
"Wu Gu, Wu Gu Gu~"
Song Xuan was quite familiar with this set. After all, Teng She would also make similar sounds when hunting. It seemed to be the secret code they had agreed upon.
