Chapter XXVII
A man took a piece of boiled meat with his hand, and the piece of meat was a little hot, and he rubbed it back and forth with his left and right hands before stuffing it into his mouth.
As soon as he stuffed it into his mouth, his face changed, and then he chewed, his expression was even more exaggerated, and his eyes were about to pop out.
"How can this be...... How can it be so delicious! He said in a hoarse voice with his eyes glued to the clay pot with a stunned expression.
When the others heard him say this, they all showed curiosity, and they stepped forward, and each took a piece of meat, and put it in his mouth, and the expression on which he showed was no less exaggerated than the man just now.
People asked how Duoye made it, Duoye pointed to the clay pot, and said lightly: "It's this clay pot, add some water to it, and then put the meat pieces in it, put salt on it, and cook it over fire." β
Everyone came to their senses, and they became interested in this clay pot, and they all asked him to exchange it, and Duoye knew that the firing of the clay pot was not easy, and the price could not be too low, he thought about it and couldn't make up his mind, so he said: "You say it yourself, I will exchange it for the person with the highest price." "Taba actually started the auction by mistake.
Ye Feng is now wearing straw sandals, his feet are sprinkled with fine gravel, and he is making a gesture to everyone, making funny movements, and saying to everyone: "Heroes, look at your feet, don't you feel panicked when you step on the ground?" If you look at my feet, there's nothing wrong with stepping on the gravel, why do you say that? β
Everyone looked at their feet, and then at Ye Feng's feet, and suddenly realized, a rough voice came from the crowd: "That's the straw sandals of the Xingyue tribe, it's the boss!" β
Ye Feng raised his head when he heard this, and followed the prestige, it turned out to be Gray, the chief of the Rock Tribe.
Gray smiled heartily at Ye Feng and said, "Ye Feng! I didn't expect your kid to come too, the straw sandals you made are so easy to use, our tribe hasn't pricked their feet since they were used.
Hearing Gray say this, the corners of Ye Feng's mouth grinned at the back of his head, and secretly said Isn't this a free trust, so he pretended to be polite and said, "It's nothing, it's just a casual job." β
When Gray heard this, he hurriedly shook his hand and said, "How can this kind of good thing be made casually, this is still an authentic exchange for the Ye Feng brothers, and the price of the exchange is very cheap." β
At this time, a person next to him asked Gray, "How much does it cost to change these straw sandals?" β
Gray stretched out five fingers, shook them, and said forcefully: "Not much, not much, only five animal skins, very cheap." β
When these words were spoken, everyone was in an uproar, and people said one after another - cheap your sister, you are rich and amazing! Why don't you buy it, we can't afford it anyway......
Ye Feng listened to everyone's discussions, and secretly said that this business wanted to be yellow, and hurriedly said: "No, no, just one!" Just one sheet! A pair of straw sandals can be exchanged back! β
When Gray heard this, he was furious: "Why, you asked me for five animal skins, why do they only need one!" β
Ye Feng was stunned for a moment, forgetting that Gray was still there, his eyes rolled, and he hurriedly flickered: "Where can it be the same here, you must know that the hay I sold you at the beginning is not ordinary hay, it is made of hay processed through nine hundred and eighty-one processes, of course the price is different, and it cannot be compared with these." β
Gray didn't understand what the ninety-nine-eighty-one process meant, but it sounded lofty, so his anger subsided, and he became kind.
After this transaction, the Xingyue tribe harvested about 1,000 catties of food and more than 130 animal skins, most of which were created by pottery pots, which surprised Duoye very much.
It took more than five more days for them to finally return to the Xingyue tribe and count the food, only then did they discover an important problem.
Although this transaction is quite fruitful, but it is spread evenly to everyone, it is very small, autumn has come, and if you don't stock up enough food before winter, many people will starve to death in winter.
However, the animals in autumn are in the same vein, they will become extremely ferocious, more difficult to catch than ever, and the hibernating animals will go into hibernation and become extremely scarce.
Ye Feng pondered and meditated, he thought of a way, that is, to lay a trap, through his understanding of the animals around him, he was going to lay a kind of bait elastic rope trap that he saw in a book:
The lure elastic leg trap is tied into a fork-shaped herringbone with a natural fork branch or two branches, inserted vertically into the ground, and the thread led from the end of the bent elastic tree is tied to the upper end of the short stick, the end of the rope sleeve is tied to the center of the short stick, and the other end of the short stick is in contact with the branch with the bait tied at one end, and the friction between the herringbone fork and them is used to keep the whole device in a balanced state.
The noose lies flat on the ground directly below the bait. This type of leg trap is suitable for catching larger prey, such as deer, bears and tigers. For herbivorous deer, bait can be made with animal blood or stinky glands, which can arouse their curiosity.
The upper end of the short stick is pressed against the fork branch and the lower end is pressed against the branch with the bait tied, so that the tension and pressure are balanced, so that the whole system is stable.

Not only shameless, Ye Feng also set a trap that is easy to learn and well-known: dig a big pit underground, spread branches on it, repair it briefly to make it look more natural, put some bait on it, and that's it.
Ye Feng arranged these two traps everywhere in the forest, and in order to prevent anyone from suffering from these traps, Ye Feng also set up a sign next to it, the sign was very simple, and a person could see that there was danger here.
This trap was laid in less than three days, allowing the tribe to obtain large and small prey, which was more efficient than people in a few days, which made the tribesmen stunned, they didn't expect that hunting could be so simple.
To put it bluntly, the current level of civilization of the tribe is an out-and-out fishing and hunting civilization, and the more advanced civilization is the farming civilization, and the farming civilization is the general trend of the development of the tribes.
The fishing and hunting civilization was far from being able to meet the needs of the tribe's population, so Ye Feng decided to let the tribe enter the farming civilization in advance.
To enter the agricultural civilization, first of all, there must be crops that can be planted, crops naturally need seeds, although Ye Feng brought a few bags of seeds before crossing, but it is a vegetable seed, and vegetables cannot be regarded as staple food, right?
Until one day in late autumn, Ye Feng unexpectedly found that there were a few grains hanging on the animal skin of a clansman, Ye Feng picked it and looked at it, and was overjoyed, this seed turned out to be rice!
Ye Feng hurriedly asked the clansman where he got it, the clansman thought about it, pointed to the place where the small river in the east flowed down from the mountain, and replied: "It's at the foot of that mountain, there are on both sides of the river." β
