138 Kitayama Division
The North Mountain is a tribe of more than 400 people, and its location is roughly next to a small river more than half a month east of the salt department, of course, this more than half a month refers to the distance of people walking over the mountains and mountains, if you ride a horse from the grassland to detour, it will take about two days.
To tell the truth, a tribe of more than 400 people, in this wild jungle, it is not a small tribe, in general, a small tribe, that is only about 100 people, it is not so easy to develop to more than 400 people.
However, more people are not necessarily a good thing.
Because people have to eat every day, if they don't eat, they will starve to death, the more people there are, the greater the demand for food, especially in winter, you can't go out to hunt for three or four months, and the food you need to reserve is not ordinary.
At this time, the grandmother of the North Mountain Department is worried about the food for the winter.
They are also facing a similar dilemma as the Qinghe Tribe, that is, the population is too large, and the resources around are too few, she has already taken the young men of the clan to hunt almost all the prey in the four and half days' journey, but the food for the winter is still far from enough.
She even wanted to venture into the grasslands north with the young men of her clan to hunt, but she had been hesitating.
In fact, the northern mountains are less than a day's journey from the grassland in the north, and there are bison, wild sheep and wild horses on the grassland, they also know, but, according to legend, there are still terrifying wolves on the grassland, and the number of wild wolves is simply too large to count.
To go or not to go?
That afternoon, she was sitting in her treehouse frowning and pondering, when a clansman suddenly ran in and said happily: "Mother, mother, there are many people from the north. ”
There are a lot of people coming from the north!
How happy are you?
Beishan Auntie slowly got up and said, "How many people have come, why are you so happy?" ”
The people of the tribe still couldn't help but rejoice: "I'm afraid there won't be a hundred or so people here, they brought a lot of dried meat!" ”
Lots of dried meat!
When Beishan Auntie heard this, she couldn't help but get up excitedly and walked out.
What they lack is food!
Whatever these people came with dried meat, there was food, she had to find a way to stay!
As soon as she walked out of the tree house, a little girl playing outside ran over quickly, opened her arms, and said innocently: "Mother, hug, hug." ”
Beishan's mother stroked the little girl's head dotingly, and said softly: "Good, Grandma has something to do, I can't hold you, you can play here." ”
With that, she left her daughter behind, followed the messenger, and walked quickly north.
Zhao Hao was also frowning and pondering at this time, because he found that although the people of this tribe were very excited after seeing the bacon, they did not have green light in their eyes.
This proves that people are not hungry and panicked.
What if you can't take down this tribe by eating meat?
While he was pondering, a beautiful woman in her mid-thirties had already walked up to him from behind the crowd.
This should be the leader of this tribe, because there is a big difference between people who have taken foreign fruits and people who have not taken foreign fruits, and it is generally difficult for people who have not taken foreign fruits to get involved with the word "beauty".
Beishan Auntie looked at this man who was unusually strong but couldn't say that he was good-looking, and then looked at the three unusually beautiful little girls behind him, and instantly understood that this should be the leader of this group, and his strength was probably quite strong, otherwise, it would be impossible for three women who had taken strange fruits to follow.
Such a strong man would not dare to offend.
She hurriedly stepped forward and asked politely, "I don't know who you are, and why did you come to our Beishan Department?" ”
It turned out that this tribe was called Beishanbu, recalling the high mountain they bypassed when they first came, Zhao Hao understood a little, perhaps, the name Beishan was because there was a high mountain in the north of the tribe.
It seems that the leader of the North Mountain Department is still relatively easy to speak.
He also said politely: "I am the leader of the salt department in the west, and I came here this time to discuss things with you." ”
Is there a salt department in the west?
Beishan Auntie really hadn't heard of it, because she wasn't the kind of person who liked to run around in Cangwu, and she didn't have time to run around.
She was stunned for a moment, and then asked politely, "Oh, what's the matter?" ”
Zhao Hao looked at the Beishan tribesmen who were looking around, and then smiled slightly: "It's a little inconvenient to talk here, why don't you go to your house and say?" ”
Beishan's mother didn't have any scheming, at this time, she just wanted to keep the dried meat brought by these people, and she didn't think much about the rest.
She nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay, you come with me." ”
After speaking, she turned around and made a generous gesture of please.
When Zhao Hao saw her reaction, he felt a little bottom in his heart.
This Beishan aunt should have never seen anything in the world, otherwise it would be impossible to be so defenseless.
Alas, it's Ah Yun and them, it's really a bit troublesome.
Naturally, he didn't want to bring Ah Yun and the others over, but as soon as Ah Yun heard that he was going to come out for three or four days, he wanted to come with him, and he had no choice but to bring the three girls with him.
However, what he said next to Beishan's mother may be a little vulgar, a little excessive, and even a little despicable, which is not good for the third daughter to hear.
He turned his head, so as to talk badly, persuaded the curious Ah Yun, and then followed Beishan Auntie to the inside of Beishan.
When he walked into someone's treehouse, he felt more confident.
This tribe doesn't even have pottery, and the soup used to cook it is a pitted stone trough!
I don't know how they managed to make a trough in the middle of the stones, but one thing is for sure, such a backward tribe should not have plenty of food.
He smiled and sat down by the fire under the beckoning of Beishan's grandmother, and then pretended to ask casually, "How is your food prepared for the winter?" ”
When Beishan's mother heard this, she said without any scheming: "Alas, we have only prepared this winter food for less than a month, and even if the clansmen cook and eat it with wild vegetables, I am afraid they will not be able to survive this winter." ”
And so it was.
When Zhao Hao heard this, he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, but on the surface, he still pretended to be concerned and said, "It's so little, so what are you going to do?" ”
Beishan Auntie still said without any scheming: "What else can I do, I can only take the young people in the clan to hunt farther away, by the way, can you exchange the dried meat you brought to us?" ”
Change?
What do you take in exchange!
Zhao Hao nodded slowly and said: "We do have a lot of meat in the salt department, this time, I brought dry meat here, just to exchange some animal skins with you or something." ”
Skins!
When Beishan Auntie heard this, she just wanted to take off the animal skin shoulders and animal skin short skirts she was wearing to exchange meat with others, the question, how much meat can be exchanged for such a little animal skin, what they need is not a little bit of meat.
Hides, they are also lacking, this winter, I don't know if anyone will freeze to death, exchange hides for meat, that's impossible.
She subconsciously asked, "Is anything else okay?" ”
Zhao Hao still nodded slowly and said, "Other things are okay, what else do you have?" ”
This.
When Beishan Auntie heard this, she couldn't help but be embarrassed and speechless.
They don't seem to have anything to do with the North Mountain!
