Chapter 129 Trading (Part 1)
The Chang'er people are accustomed to living in caves and are good at digging holes. They live concentratedly on the mountainside on one side of the isolated mountain. = If you don't pay attention, you won't be able to find the countless large and small caves hidden under the vines.
The Chang-ear tribe, like the monkey-beast tribe, is relatively xenophobic. There are only orcs and pure humans of the Chang-ear tribe in the tribe. Of course, they do not prevent the tribe from intermarrying with people from other tribes, but once they choose a foreigner as a partner, they only Can leave the lonely mountain and go to the other party's tribe to settle down.
The long-eared tribe of the Gushan tribe has beauties, and the beauties are gentle and good at raising children. Many orcs from the large and medium tribes are willing to marry the orc females of the Gushan tribe. Tribal relatives, but every year after the cold winter, they can bring their partners and children back to their natal family to visit relatives. At that time, it was the time when the farming was busy and the green was not picking up. They could go back to their natal family, help their natal family with some work, and avoid hunger. After a long time, although the Gushan tribe was exclusive, their relationship with many tribes was still good. Get along well, it is a famous big tribe nearby.
Of course, since this tribe is all weak beast-level orcs, with limited combat power, but the occupied garrison is excellent, it's not that no one has thought about it.
However, with the powerful Longevity Wood people backing them, no matter what kind of plans those people have, they are doomed to fail.
The geographical environment of the Gushan Tribe is superior, and the tribesmen are good at farming and breeding, and the days of starvation are far less than those of other tribes. In addition, the females of their tribe are easy to reproduce, and they have been multiplying for many years. There are more than 7,000 tribesmen. Half of them were orcs.
Unlike the Dahu Tribe, the Changer Clan lived in a very concentrated area. As the patriarch, Yashen lived in the largest and most spacious place—
a natural cave with a large area.
Ya's partner gave birth to four children for him, all of which were orcs. The eldest in the Amu ranking has not yet found a female he likes. The two daughters in the middle have married with the orcs of the tribe and gave birth to cubs successively. Lai is the youngest, but he took shape earlier than his brothers and sisters, so he is not very stable, and will turn into a beast when he gets emotional.
Now only Ya, his partner and two sons live in the cave, a family of four, and more than a dozen slaves who work for their family live in the nearby cave, so the cave is extraordinarily spacious.
The cave is unavoidably damp. The walls of the cave are covered with large and small unknown mushrooms. The mushroom cap emits a faint orange light. Countless faint lights gather to completely illuminate the cave, not to mention like daytime. , but there is no need to deliberately use a fire for lighting.
Under the leadership of Ya, everyone came to the center of the cave, which is equivalent to the living room of their home.
The living room is very large, and it is not a problem to accommodate two or three hundred people at the same time. The height of the cave from the ceiling to the ground is more than ten meters high, which is very open. The walls of the cave are the same as the outside, covered with moss, glowing mushrooms and some unknown blades of grass. People don't feel bored at all when they get inside.
According to the teeth, the cave in their house is warm in winter and cool in summer, and in the cold winter, they can just burn some firewood to survive. The caves of the tribesmen were dug by themselves, which was a bit worse, but compared with the houses built indiscriminately by many tribes, it was much more comfortable to live in.
Bai has always been proud of the tribe's brick and tile houses. At this time, he naturally had to find an opportunity to show off without a trace.
After successfully arousing everyone's curiosity and envy, Wu Nuo saw a little bit of pride from his expressionless face︿( ̄︶ ̄)︿Of course, Wu Nuo and Bai came to the Gushan Tribe not for pure Reminiscing and showing off, their purpose is very clear - to find more iron ore and bring them back.
Ya and Wu Zhu only wanted low-priced and high-quality blood salt earlier in the morning, but now they also want the rice and wheat seeds that Wu Nuo mentioned.
The yield of millet is very low, but the people of the tribe are increasing year after year, and they are eager to find new sources of food.
Rice, which can grow in water, is undoubtedly the best choice.
Millet is resistant to drought and not to humidity, and the yield of millet is pitifully low in places too close to rivers. If they have rice seeds that can grow in water, they can open up all the places near the river and grow them into rice. Since it is a plant that grows in water, no matter how poor the yield is, it will not be worse than millet.
As for wheat, if the yield is higher than that of millet, they can properly free up some fields for planting.
This year, the price of crude salt of the Great Lakes Tribe has risen sharply again. The tribe took a lot of materials to exchange for salt, and there are not many materials available for trading now. Affected by last year's cold winter and summer rains, the yield of millet was lower than in previous years. It was not enough for the people of the tribe to eat, and there was only a limited amount that could be exchanged.
When talking about the subject of the transaction, Wu Zhu didn't say much, and Ya and Amu were a little nervous.
Wu Nuo and Bai looked at each other, he smiled and said: "Master Ya, don't worry so much, Bai and I are just out for a trip, and the blood salt we brought out is not much, I can give you all the rice seeds, but the wheat seeds can only Wait until next year. If it goes well, when the waterway is opened, the boats of the Changhe Tribe will be able to reach the Dahu Tribe directly next year. If there is no accident, we will send a large amount of blood salt over, and then I will send someone to bring it to you. Wheat seeds."
Grandpa Shu, who has lived for countless years, heard of waterways and ships for the first time, couldn't help asking curiously, and the others also stared at Wu Nuo and Bai with puzzled expressions.
Wu Nuo patiently explained the waterway and ships to everyone.
After hearing this, Grandpa Shu immediately understood, "Smart, really smart, how did you come up with the idea of hollowing out a tree to make a boat floating on the water?
" He took a step forward and smiled modestly: "It's not what we thought of, but the ancestors of our tribe."
Grandpa Shu asked: "You... aren't from the Changhe tribe?" As the oldest member of the Changshengmu tribe, he can communicate directly with humans Communicate without any language barriers. He has a good relationship with Wu Quan, but he has never heard Wu Quan mention waterways and ships.
"I come from the Yanhuang tribe very far away, and now I can't find my way back, so I stay in the Changhe tribe."
Grandpa Shu thought for a while and said: "The Yanhuang tribe... I have lived for so long and never heard of it. This tribe is probably really far away from here. But since you choose to stay in the Changhe tribe as a disciple of Wuquan, you can stay at ease."
Wu Nuo nodded with a smile, he didn't notice the flash of happiness in his white eyes. Wu Zhu, who had been silent
for a long time, said at this time: "Our river is directly connected to the big lake outside. Can your boats directly reach our tribe through the waterway?"
In the blood salt trade, they will continue to be subject to the Great Lakes Tribe.
The greedy wolves of the Great Lakes Tribe had blood salt in their hands, so it's no wonder they didn't try their best to squeeze profits. If they can reach a deal directly with the Changhe Tribe, they can save a lot of unnecessary expenses.
Wu Nuo gave Wu Zhu thirty-two likes in his heart, the old man is simply too good~(≧▽≦)/~! Of course, Wu Nuo still hesitated
on the face, "I can't answer this for now. If the current is too fast or the river is too narrow, our boats won't be able to get in."
Unable to understand the surrounding situation, he thought for a while and said: "The river water is relatively fast in our tribe. Going down, the river water is the same as outside, and the river surface is also very wide. In this way, I will ask Amu to accompany you to take a look How about it?"
Wu Nuo shook his head with a smile and said, "That's not necessary, Bai and I will go and have a look later."
After chatting for a while, Ya's partner Qing Ye took the slaves and brought up the prepared food .
First of all, there is a large pot of porridge cooked with millet, and then there are three roasted horn sheep, a large bowl of boiled bird eggs, a few honey grilled fish and grilled meat birds, some fruits, very rich, and the taste is not bad, it can be seen They put a lot of thought into preparing these foods.
The corn used to cook the porridge is this year's new rice. The porridge is green and attractive, with a faint fragrance and a sweet taste. In terms of taste alone, it is better than the rice grown by Wu Nuo.
After all, the rice that Wu Nuo planted was an unusual seed obtained from Wang Sanhu, and it could not be compared with the glutinous rice, fragrant rice, pearl rice, etc. that he had eaten in modern times.
Millet is different, it has more natural sweetness than the millet he has eaten in modern times, it is sticky and soft in the mouth, and its taste is much better than rice.
Wu Nuo liked to eat rice better than pasta. It was rare to eat such delicious millet porridge. He drank three bowls by himself.
Both Grandpa Shu and Xiaoqi didn't eat human food. Grandpa Shu first noticed that Wu Nuo and Bai's eating bowls were not ordinary wooden bowls or stone bowls. After asking, they found out that these bowls were fired by them in a special way. Yes, taking this opportunity, Wu Nuo also promoted the tribe's jars, but unfortunately the jars he brought out have been traded to the monkey tribe, otherwise he could show it to everyone, and maybe sell a few more.
At first, everyone was full of curiosity about the Changhe tribe. When they heard that the Changhe tribe used these jars to make sauerkraut pickles, Amu and Alai, who had smelled the smell of pickled vegetables and fish, almost drool.
"...Master Wu Nuo, I want to eat pickled cabbage fish!" Alai's fat rabbit obviously hasn't quite adapted to the life after the transformation, and he hugged Wu Nuo's wrist with his fat claws like a little boy, acting like a baby.
Before Wu Nuo had time to touch his beautiful long ears, the little guy was quickly pinched by the back of the neck by Bai Damiao's eyes and thrown into his brother's arms.
A Lai was rewarded with two chestnuts by his elder brother and father respectively, and lay down beside his mother with his head drooping. Immediately, Shu Xiaoqi gloated in his eyes, and the little guy instantly revived on the spot full of blood and blue. She bared her teeth at him sternly
and secretly... Behind everyone's back, Wu Xiaonuo gave Bai Damiao a sneaky look, telling him to be more honest, and then said to Alai: "I still have a little sauerkraut here, and I'll make pickled cabbage fish for you tonight. "
Alai Fat Rabbit was immediately happy.
