The two foxes completed a deal that satisfied both parties.
"Leader Xuan, do you want to trade something else? We still have a lot of goods."
Karasuba put away the two pairs of wild boar teeth, and the smile on his face became more sincere.
Jiang Xuan said helplessly: "I also want to trade more things, but our Vine Tribe is really poor. You don't like those very common things."
Karasuba glanced at the bamboo house again, and then nodded. The Teng tribe was indeed extremely poor and could not produce many good things.
Therefore, Karasuba did not force another trade.
"Since Leader Xuan has nothing else to trade, can you take me to meet the old man over there?"
But Wu Yu saw it. The old witch had grabbed a lot of various animal bones, teeth, and horns, among other things.
The strength of that giant eagle was terrifying, and the prey it preyed on was certainly not ordinary.
This kind of trading partner is what Karasuba likes, because he can make a lot of money with every transaction.
"Well, we have to ask his opinion first."
Jiang Xuan did not agree to this request rashly, because the old witch could bring them a lot of benefits by staying in the Vine Tribe.
If you don't respect the old witch and bring people to see him casually, and if you offend the old witch and take off on a giant eagle, then the gain outweighs the loss.
"Okay, tell him that we have a lot of goods, and there is always something he is interested in, or something he has been looking for but hasn't found."
Karasuba is a very smart person. He only asked Jiang Xuan to say one sentence, but this sentence can make people interested in them after listening to it.
"good."
Jiang Xuan went to the old witch in person and relayed Wu Yu's words to him truthfully.
Because he always felt that Old Wu, even though he was a bit older, was a bit unfathomable.
When facing this kind of person, it's best to tell the truth and don't try to influence the other person's judgment by adding jealousy.
The old witch did not answer directly, but asked: "What did your Vine Tribe trade with them?"
Jiang Xuan smiled bitterly and said: "We just traded some plant seeds. Our Vine Tribe is too poor and has nothing to offer."
The old witch said strangely: "Don't you still have two magic mushrooms in your hand? Those things are useless to you, but they are treasures to other tribes."
"I have no intention of using the Divine Mushrooms to trade with the Black Tooth Tribe."
Jiang Xuandao: "It's just two divine mushrooms. Of course, we need to exchange for something. The Black Tooth Tribe's goods are made at both ends. It would be a huge loss to trade with them with the divine mushrooms."
The traveling team of the Black Teeth Tribe are the most primitive middlemen. Not only do they make a profit from the price difference, but they also make a very high profit.
When a piece of goods passes through their hands and is sold to other tribes from the place of origin, the profit earned is at least ten times, or even dozens or hundreds of times.
Because the news in this primitive world is too limited, and there are very few traveling teams like them, no one is trying to grab business, so they naturally sell it as high as they can.
The old witch smiled and said, "You are quite smart."
Then, the old witch said: "The reason why I left the tribe and came to the Southern Wilderness was to see a wider world and see more things. Since they brought a lot of goods, let's take a look."
"Then I'll bring the person over."
After obtaining the old witch's consent, Jiang Xuan returned to the bamboo house and informed Karasuba that he could go there.
Wu Yu was very happy. He thanked Jiang Xuan verbally first, and then immediately sent two soldiers to the location of the black-toothed bird, picked up some rare and rare goods, and followed Jiang Xuan to the house where the old witch lived.
Karasuba introduced himself first: "Black Tooth Tribe, Karasuba, I have met the elders."
The old witch nodded and said: "Eastern Wild Eagle Tribe, Ze."
Jiang Xuan on the side was surprised to find that the old witch actually said his name. Before that, he had never known the old witch's name. Of course, he had never asked.
However, the old witch was obviously wary of Karasuba and did not reveal his identity.
After Wu Yu heard what the old witch said, his face was full of shock, because the distance between the four wildernesses was too far. Even the Black Tooth Tribe, which had giant birds like the Black Tooth Bird, could only sell goods in the Southern Wasteland. .
The Eastern Wasteland is a legendary place for most of the tribes in the Southern Wasteland, and most people will never be able to reach it in their lifetime.
The old witch said: "I heard that you brought a lot of goods? Take them out and take a look."
At the mention of the goods, Karasuba immediately recovered from the shock and then got into business mode.
"Yes, our Black Teeth Tribe has the most complete range of goods in the entire Southern Wilderness. There must be something the elders like."
Wu Yu waved his hand, and the two warriors behind him immediately took out a large animal skin and spread it flat on the ground. They also took out several animal skin bags, opened them one by one, then took out the goods inside and laid them out. On the hide.
Jiang Xuan watched the people of the Black Teeth tribe busy with interest. He thought to himself: Isn't this the most primitive street stall? It's quite interesting.
Among the goods that Karasuba took out, there were brand new spider silk clothes, as well as various treasures in the eyes of the tribesmen, such as gems, bone ornaments, etc.
In addition, there are exquisite weapons, as well as some rare herbs and the fruits of magical plants.
Karasuba emphatically picked up the spider silk clothing to sell, because the spider silk clothing was relatively expensive.
"Elder, please look at this. This is a spider silk garment produced by our Southern Wilderness Spider Tribe. It is exquisite and lightweight. The hot weather is coming now. Wearing such a spider silk garment must be particularly comfortable."
"The spider silk suit is not only comfortable to wear, but it is also extremely tough and cannot be cut by ordinary stone knives. Please take a look if you don't believe me."
Karasuba asked the two warriors to straighten the spider silk clothing, then pulled out a stone knife that he carried with him, slashed hard at the spider silk clothing, and scratched it.
A shocking scene appeared.
I saw that this spider silk garment was intact despite such violent destruction, without even a scratch!
Jiang Xuan suddenly remembered a curious piece of information he had read in his previous life: Spider silk of the same volume is tougher than steel wire and can even be used to make body armor!
Jiang Xuan sighed inwardly: This thing is equivalent to a piece of personal soft armor. It would be great if I could get one for self-defense.
Of course, he could only think about it.
The spider silk clothing was too expensive. Unless he took out the two divine mushrooms, he really couldn't trade with Karasuba for anything of equal value.
Even the old witch, who had always been calm, had some excitement in his eyes when he saw the spider silk clothing displayed by Karasuba, and he was obviously very interested in the spider silk clothing.
"How to trade?" the old witch asked.
With a bright smile on his face, Karasuba said: "Spider silk clothes are extremely precious, and we spent a lot of money to trade a batch from the spider tribe."
"If the elder wants a spider silk garment, he needs to bring out beast-level teeth, horns, skins, or gem-level stones, as well as other rare things."
Tribal people divide the beasts in the jungle into beasts, ferocious beasts and exotic beasts.
Wild animals are the most common, such as bighorn sheep, wild boars, bison, etc. are all wild animals.
Most of the ferocious beasts are terrible predators and are much more dangerous than wild beasts. For example, giant toothed tigers, wild bears, etc. are all ferocious beasts.
As for the alien beasts, they are even rarer. They usually have unique survival skills. Most of what ordinary tribesmen know about alien beasts comes from legends, because most of the people who have seen them with their own eyes have died.
Gem-level stones are also rare. For example, the small stone knife in the old witch's hand is of gem-level, which makes Jiang Xuan very envious.
After Wu Yu finished speaking, he looked at the old witch with a smile, his eyes drifting to the gemstone stone knife hanging on the old witch's waist from time to time.
"Come with me."
The old witch put his hands behind his back and walked towards the open space next to the bamboo house, followed closely by Karasuba and others.
Next to the bamboo house, the giant eagle has gone out to look for food. There are many large skeletons in the open space, which are all leftovers eaten by the giant eagle.
Some bones are relatively intact, while others are broken into several pieces.
Some bones have scratch marks left by the terrifying eagle claws, and some bones have a large hole in the skull, which was obviously pecked by a giant eagle.
Many of these skeletons were large beasts, terrible predators, but in front of the giant eagle, they could only be reduced to food.
In fact, these bones are a huge wealth for the tribesmen, but the people of the Vine tribe have never dared to come close.
Because that giant eagle is so terrifying. If it is in a bad mood, it can swallow a person like a small insect with just one peck.
The old witch didn't let Jiang Xuan and the others come over to get these animal bones, because he had something more profound in mind.
The Vine Tribe is still too weak now. If they are given too many things and develop the habit of relying on them, what will they do after the old witch leaves?
Because of this, the old witch would ask Jiang Xuan to come over from time to time to get some animal meat to eat, but he never let him take the animal bones, teeth or skins here.
At this time, the old witch led them to this open space, and Jiang Xuan had a profound understanding of what it meant to be wealthy.
The old witch walked up to the skeleton of a dicynodon, pointed at the two thick fangs in the skull of the dicynodon, and said, "This pair of teeth can be replaced by two spider silk clothes!"
The old witch's voice was calm and his eyes were calm, but for some reason, Karasuba felt such unquestionable majesty that he didn't dare to bargain.
Of course, Diplodon is also a kind of beast. The fangs of Diplodon are the best materials for tribal people to make tooth knives and are very popular.
Trading two pieces of spider silk clothing for a pair of fangs of a dicynodon was a good deal for Karasuba.
Karasuba said: "It can be traded, but please allow me to pry off this pair of fangs first."
The old witch nodded without objection.
After receiving permission, Karasuba personally led his men to use stone hammers, stone chisels and other tools to cut open the bones of the dicynodont and take out the complete pair of fangs.
Jiang Xuan watched with great interest as Wu Yu took out the fangs of the dicynodont, and especially observed the use of those tools.
He found that the tools of the Black Tooth Tribe were of very high quality, and their shape was close to some of the tools he had seen in his previous life.
Tribal people have a very long history of using these tools. After countless people improved them, they became what they are now, and they are very practical.
It would be great if the Vine Tribe had these tools too.
Jiang Xuan was a little envious of the people of the Black Tooth Tribe.
Among the more powerful tribes, there are specialized professions such as stone tool masters and bone tool masters, and these tools are also made by these people.
As for the Vine Tribe, they currently don’t even have a single stone tool master, and their development path is long and arduous.
After the pair of fangs of the dicynodon were completely removed, Karasuba stroked it several times and was very satisfied with it.
Dicynodont was a carnivorous beast. It was named because it had two huge tusks. The tusks were thick and straight, not as hollow as wild boar tusks, and were very suitable for making various utensils.
The pair of tusks that Karasuba removed are as thick as an adult's arm and more than half a meter long. They are also very complete and smooth. They are rare high-quality animal teeth.
Karasuba was already thinking about how much supplies he could exchange for these pair of animal teeth if he took them back to a bone weapon master to process them into tooth knives and then sold them to the big tribes.
Although there was no bargaining and he had to get the animal teeth himself, Karasuba was in a good mood because the deal was profitable.
Karasuba said respectfully: "Elder, the beast's fangs have been removed. You can choose two spider silk clothes that you like."
The old witch nodded, then returned to the front of the bamboo house and selected two pieces from the seven or eight spider silk clothes. The transaction was considered completed.
"Elder, we still have a lot of goods..."
After completing the first transaction, Karasuba enthusiastically introduced other goods to the old witch.
The old witch was not interested in those weapons, gems, and exquisite ornaments.
The old witch was very interested in some rare herbs brought by the Black Tooth Tribe, and selected a few rare and useful herbs.
For this reason, the old witch took Wu Yu to select two pairs of animal teeth and several pieces of animal bones.
Karasuba's face was about to burst into laughter. Although the old witch didn't like bargaining and was quite aggressive, they still made a lot of money from this transaction.
When all the transactions were over, Wuyu specially presented some practical but not very valuable things to the old witch, and hoped that he could continue to trade with the old witch next time he came over.
The old witch accepted the gifts calmly and was noncommittal about the next transaction.
Because he himself doesn’t know how much life he has left, and he doesn’t know if he can wait until the next transaction.
"Bah!"
After all the transactions were completed, the people of the Black-tooth tribe took a short rest, ate something, and then set off again on twelve black-toothed birds.
They have to go to the next tribe and continue trading until they have earned enough supplies before returning to the Black Tooth Tribe.
After the people from the Black Teeth tribe left, the old witch called Jiang Xuan and Chi Shao to the bamboo house.
"Put on these two spider silk clothes."
The old witch handed two pieces of spider silk clothes to Jiang Xuan and Chi Shao respectively. He gave such precious things without blinking an eye.
"This... this is too precious..."
Jiang Xuan was surprised. He never expected that the old witch would actually give them two spider silk clothes.
In this case, doesn’t he himself have nothing?
In other words, he decided to trade the spider silk clothes with Karasuba just to prepare them for them.
Chi Shao was also a little at a loss, obviously she also knew the value of the spider silk clothes.
The old witch said: "Take it, these things are nothing to me, but they are very important to you."
"With the spider silk suit, you won't be so easily injured when you go hunting in the future. At critical moments, it can even save your life."
"Consider it my reward for living in your tribe for so long."
Under the insistence of the old witch, Jiang Xuan and Chi Shao could only accept these two spider silk clothes. At the same time, Jiang Xuan was keenly aware that the old witch seemed to have some new plan.
He seems to be leaving the Vine Tribe.
