Chapter 048: White Horse

In the past, with prey, not too much noodle fruit storage, and a small amount of dried wild vegetables, a tribe would starve all winter. Even noble chiefs and wizards must tighten their belts to survive the winter.

Now that there are purple rice crackers and konjac flour that can be stored for a long time, the materials for the winter are considered to be some more. But relying on these two, whether he can ensure that the people in the tribe can survive the winter safely, Mu Tong does not know. It's just that the forest is full of ingredients, so why not find a way to turn them into food that can be stored for a long time?

For example, the two fruits in front of you, in addition to eating fresh fruits, can also be used to make jam and make fruit wine.

How much can you eat fresh fruit? Looking at so many fruits, if they are not disposed of in time, most of them will only be rotten. It's better to make some jam or make fruit wine, so as not to waste it.

Just to make jam or make fruit wine, sugar is indispensable. She could have used the storage in the ring to make something herself, but if the tribe was going to do it on a large scale, how could she blatantly take out so much sugar?

Hey, to make jam or fruit wine, let's wait until I think of a sugar solution later.

Mu Tong looked at the bushes and saw that there were still a lot of ripe pineapples and strawberries, and subconsciously put them in the ring: instead of letting these ripe fruits rot in the woods, it was better to store more in her ring.

Thinking of food that can be stored for a long time, Mu Tong thought of sauerkraut again. At present, among the foods that can be eaten in the tribe, prickly cucumbers and green beans can be used to make sauerkraut. There is no sugar in the tribe, but there is no shortage of salt, and I heard that it is all exchanged from the Blackwater tribe.

Mu Tong used this salt, a pale green salt, which smelled with the fragrance of plants, which was very magical. The dishes that are stir-fried are no worse than the fine salt used in modern times, I don't know how these primitive tribes made it? Mu Tong thought embarrassedly: Wouldn't it be like soy sauce fruit, which grows from plants?

Forget it, it doesn't matter where it comes from, as long as she has enough salt to make sauerkraut. Thinking of the delicious sauerkraut, Mu Tong swallowed his saliva: When I go back today, I will get some pickled cucumbers and capers to satisfy my cravings!

Mu Tong and his entourage were happy to collect in the mountains, and a team of more than ten people slowly came in front of the valley mouth of the tribe. Except for one woman, the rest of the team were all sturdy men, all of whom were not empty, all carrying large bags wrapped in animal skins, and walked happily into the tribe.

"It's back, the salt-changing team is back!" Cisong and the others, who stayed at the mouth of the valley to stand guard, also showed joy when they saw it. Hurriedly called the cubs who were playing next to them and asked them to go back and report the news.

The people who were still in the tribe came out, and the salt exchange team left for more than a month, taking away more or less belongings from every household, just in exchange for the indispensable salt.

The chieftain and the wizard also came out, and the salt exchange was a major event in the tribe, and basically every once in a while, people had to be organized to go to the Blackwater tribe to exchange, especially before and after the winter. However, now that there are soy sauce fruits in the tribe, the demand for salt should not be so great.

The team that came back was sent by the Chishui tribe to exchange salt.

Walking ahead was suddenly a pair of the chief's children: Abu and Pema.

Abu and Baima, because they were empty-handed, unlike other clansmen, who still had to carry large bags of animal skins, walked briskly in the front.

Na Baima also wears a wreath made of wild flowers on her head, and a colorful wreath around her waist, which looks pleasing to the eye. It's just that the key parts of the cover are not covered at all, and the three points are all exposed, not to mention, seeing that there are clansmen in front of him, he deliberately trotted and threw the big steamed bun on his chest around.

It's just that when he ran in front of the tribe, Bai Ma was stunned: This is the Chishui tribe?

Not only Baima, but also more than a dozen sturdy men, including Abu, also put down the animal skin bag in their hands and looked at the people in the tribe in dismay.

The men in front of them, young and old, were all short haired, with animal skins wrapped around their waists, and unknown objects on their feet; The woman's hair was neat, with a hairstyle that she had never seen before, and she was wearing clothes woven from grass, right? The feet are similarly dressed in unknown things.

These people with neat faces and peculiar dresses are really from their Chishui tribe?

The people in the salt exchange team were puzzled, but looking at the terrain, it was clearly their Chishui tribe? It can't be their tribe, forcibly occupied by someone who came from nowhere, right?

"Abu", Basang looked at Abu and Baima, looking at himself as if he was stunned, and his heart was proud: the two children have been gone for so long, and when they come back, they see that the tribe and the people in the tribe have changed so much, don't you believe it? Haha, a few days ago, he was still naked like the salt exchange team!

At the thought of the striped stripes, Bassan's eyes looked at the sons and daughters who were also striped. In the past, when all the people were naked, he was quite proud. After all, the son and daughter are the best among men and women.

Now that all the people of the tribe were clothed, and his son and daughter were still naked, he had no taste in his heart. He always felt that he had lost his old face like this, but he couldn't blame them - they were not in the tribe, how could they know about the changes in the tribe? How can I know that the divine envoy said: It is disrespectful to the gods not to wear clothes?

Ahem, Basang coughed dryly: it is better to quickly divide the salt from each house, and then let the son and daughter go home and put on new clothes. The children did not return, but he told his two wives to prepare them early. By the way, the title of wife is also what the divine envoy said-if you partner up, you should be called husband and wife.

As soon as Basang spoke, everyone in the salt exchange team heard that the sturdy man in front of him was their chieftain. However, why has there been such a big change among the tribes? In particular, the gate at the mouth of the valley has changed from a heavy boulder to a tall wooden gate, and this wooden gate can keep wild beasts out at night?

Before Abu could ask, Baima, who had been staying for a long time, suddenly said: "Who made up these straw sandals?" ”

Looking at the ponytails, braids, buns and hairpins braided on the women's heads, Bai Ma's heart was shocked: who invented or made these things? And the clothes they wear, who weaves them?

"Huh? Baima, how do you know this is called straw sandals? Basang raised the straw sandals on his feet, and although he was asking his daughter, he was very proud in his heart: his daughter has been smart since she was a child, don't you believe it? You see, what God taught the adult, his daughter knows what it is called if she hasn't seen it, you dare to say that she is not smart?
