As soon as noon passed, the other three tribes divided into two groups and rushed over one after another. Naturally, this meeting required some greetings.
What surprised Song Xuan was that this time Niuhe actually brought two boats of livestock and rowed over. Although this was tacitly understood by the people around him, he didn't expect him to be so straightforward, but it was also a matter of course. It's a good thing, it saves you from having to worry about it later. If everything goes well, the cattle that are transported can also be used to join the tribe's reclamation later.
Although this place is not so perfect, a few people don't seem dissatisfied, and Teng She did all this alone. They didn't waste any effort. They just exchanged it when they came, and they didn't even have to worry about their accommodation. Different from the previous sheds, this shed is more like a house, with only one side unsealed, which makes it much more comfortable to rest at night.
Since the tribe was relatively small, everyone still had plenty of time. After chatting for a long time, they slowly got to the point, which was mainly to exchange for the salt needed for this year from him.
Maybe it was because the expectations were better, everyone seemed more generous, and the least grass tribe also increased their number by 10% compared to previous years. However, although they changed more than before, they were still within Song Xuan's expectations, and the salt they brought was enough. Make an exchange.
After the salt exchange, other things are not that important. Of course, the exchange of livestock with the Niu tribe is not among them. Livestock are very important to both tribes. Teng She can supplement the breeding scale, and the Niu tribe can also get the salt and food they want. Food then rapidly increases the population.
Fortunately, the relevant matters were negotiated last year, so there is no need to exchange them in public. It seems a bit bad to hide from others, but it avoids these embarrassing things.
As for the exchange of seeds and stones, it is becoming less and less. This is not the beginning. Now everyone will sell the collected seeds before winter in order to exchange for enough food or other things, and stones because There are fewer and fewer types that can be found. The ones that can usually be found have been exchanged, and it is not easy to find new ones.
It's a pity that Teng She invested so much in this area, but all it seemed to get in the end was that small limestone mine. Fortunately, Song Xuan didn't worry too much about the output, which was pretty good. After all, they were all looking for surface stones. Few people will deliberately explore it.
Investment, that's it. Anyway, it doesn't affect the development of the tribe too much. Although the exchange ratio of stones is high, it is only a little each time. Like this time, there are only five kinds of stones, and three of them have been exchanged before. , Song Xuan felt that there was not much hope for the remaining two stones at first glance, but he still exchanged them according to the agreed ratio.
For several other tribes, this is also a matter of luck. If you can exchange for something, it's good. If you can't, it's not a loss. It's just a matter of luck.
There are duplicate stones, and most likely they did not do it deliberately. Each tribe sent a variety of stones before. Even Song Xuan sometimes forgets which stones he has seen and which stones he has not seen. Even more unknown.
Fortunately, they accepted everything Song Xuan said, and nothing unpleasant happened.
In addition to the Zhu tribe, the Niu tribe also expressed that they wanted to change some projectiles. Song Xuan was naturally very happy about this. Among this tribe, the environment near the Niu tribe was the best. The terrain was flat and the trees were not as tall as the others. Dense, relatively speaking, is the most suitable for hunting with slings.
Therefore, Ushikawa's appetite is quite big, and he wants to exchange a thousand pieces at a time. This amount is already very terrifying. With the small population of the Niu tribe, each person can get more than ten or twenty pieces.
Although there was demand, their greatest confidence was the exchange of livestock with him, which gave them the capital to exchange for other supplies. Now the cattle tribe is not as timid as before. Back then, the first pottery was still Song Xuan gave it to them, and every time they exchanged it, they always came first to eat, but now it has completely reversed, becoming the most heroic tribe among the major tribes.
Seeing Ushikawa's lavish purchases, several people felt a little sad, but they couldn't envy them because they didn't know how to control beasts.
After the exchange, Song Xuan also discussed the raising of livestock with Niu He. Although Teng She is now more professional, it has also absorbed the knowledge of several tribes, and the Niu tribe is the first among the surrounding tribes to pay attention to wild animals. Those who breed naturally have their own unique insights. Song Xuan also wants to take the opportunity to learn more, which will only be beneficial to expanding the scale of breeding in the tribe.
The hustle and bustle is over and the sun has begun to set. Since we arrived relatively late, we must rest where we are today and recharge our batteries before setting off again tomorrow morning.
Although there are a lot fewer tribes, the number of people participating in the exchange meeting this time is not much less. This is mainly because Teng She has too many people. After all, searching for and building valleys requires people. Several other tribes There are very few manpower. Except for the Ox tribe, the remaining three tribes only have four people.
Although there were huge changes last year, other tribes were not affected. The atmosphere was still quite good, and the people around the bonfire were still very lively.
After finishing the meal, Song Xuan sat in front of the bonfire to keep warm, watching with a smile the people from several tribes not far away having fun.
Niu He and others looked at each other and walked up together randomly. Song Xuan looked at the battle and was a little curious about what they wanted to say.
After all, the exchange meeting had been completed, and Song Xuan had already agreed with them about the follow-up arrangements. They did not raise any objections to this. According to Song Xuan, Teng She would send someone to trade with them. Although the differences between the tribes were There will be less communication, but the time invested in exchanges every year will be greatly reduced.
In the future, large-scale actions will only be taken when a blind date conference is held. Although this is equivalent to handing over all the rights of exchange and blind date conferences to Teng She, several departments are still very happy to accept it. After all, From the moment Soaring Snake grew in strength, they had lost this right.
Seeing several people coming in front of him, Song Xuan quickly sat up straighter and allowed them to glance at each other randomly without saying anything to urge them.
After a few people made eye contact, Niu He, who was relatively honest, was finally pushed out. In addition, it was also because Niu He and Song Xuan had a better relationship. After all, the exchange between the two just now was watched by several people. In the eyes, they didn't have that much in common. They could brag and chat, but it was difficult to interrupt other people. They even couldn't understand a lot of what the two of them said.
Niu He glanced at several people, and finally asked Song Xuan helplessly:
"God Envoy, what do you think about...the Black Feather Tribe?"
This sentence was beyond Song Xuan's expectation. As for the Black Feather Tribe, Song Xuan naturally wanted to deal with it as soon as possible. After dealing with the Black Wolf Alliance last year, Song Xuan, who was feeling swollen, even thought about leading people to deal with it after the spring. The rest of Karasuba.
But in the end, the surge in population made Song Xuan realize the reality. Apart from other things, he had to at least solve the food gap in the tribe before he could consider the next thing. As for solving the problem of the Wuyu tribe, he could only put it aside later. , at least we have to wait until the autumn harvest in the tribe before considering it.
What Song Xuan didn't expect was that Niuhe and the others were a little impatient. You know, there wasn't much conflict between the Wuyu tribe and them. The only contact was last year when Wuyun fled here with a few people, and that time it caused a stir. It was quite a sensation, but other than that, there was absolutely no deep hatred.
Song Xuan couldn't figure out what a few people were thinking at once, but no matter what, they could think of this, which was not a bad thing for Teng She. Song Xuan had previously thought of ways to win him into his camp. Among them, in this way, when attacking the Black Feather tribe in the future, there will naturally be a lot more manpower available. Although the populations of the several tribes are not large, if they are all together, they can send about 150 people. Still very relaxing.
Song Xuan naturally didn't want to lose such a huge help. Now that they had all arrived, Song Xuan would not let the duck fly away. His eyes suddenly lit up. He patted the open space next to him and signaled to the leaders. Sit down and discuss.
"you…………"
"..."
Although they are not fools, in terms of language, there is no way they can beat Song Xuan, a person who came from later generations. In terms of the twists and turns in his belly, if Song Xuan wants to be second in this era, there is probably no one. Dare to be number one, of course, more often than not, Song Xuan is unwilling to use too many brains. After all, it is not necessary to get along with this group of primitive people.
However, once the force was exerted, the effect was still very obvious. After a few words and a few people's expressions that could not be hidden at all, Song Xuan roughly understood what they were thinking.
In addition to worrying about a repeat of last year's incident, several tribes obviously have further ideas. Although each tribe has settled down and even developed slightly, its ability to resist risks has not increased much. Last year, if Teng She hadn't warned them in advance, they would have been easily tricked.
Although they have a general understanding of Karasuba's situation, the dead camels and horses are big. Even now, Karasuba has a much larger population than Soaring Snakes, let alone small tribes like them, which do not have more than 100 people. Well, if Wu Yu goes all out, they can't predict the situation of Teng Snake, but if it comes to several of their tribes, it will naturally be a disaster.
Moreover, during the exchange last year, Song Xuan clearly showed that he wanted to take further action. They felt that there was no need to get involved at the time, but what happened later, coupled with a winter of thinking, made several people's thoughts change. Not a small change.
