Another day is coming.

At dawn, some of the people in the deer tribe's residence were already busy preparing breakfast.

They put a few large whole-sized pottery pieces on a rudimentary stove, added water to the pottery, and then built a fire to heat them.

Not long after, another tribesman brought over the food that the tribesmen were going to eat this morning, including the leftover animal meat from yesterday's meal, wild vegetables with wrinkled leaves, some plant rhizomes, and most importantly, salt.

The so-called relying on the mountains to eat the mountains and relying on the water to draft the water, the deer tribe is not like the snake tribe, there is a small river not far from the place where they live, and there are many fish in the small river, and the fish has become one of the staple foods of the people of the snake tribe.

On a lucky day, the deer tribe hunting team can hunt enough prey, and on a bad day, they may not even be able to catch a rabbit on that day.

In order not to go hungry, the people of the deer tribe can only find ways to find food to eat.

The fruit of the plant is also one of the main foods of the deer tribe, but the fruit is basically found in late summer and autumn, and the fruit is almost impossible to find in spring.

In this case, the people of the deer tribe can only look for things that can be eaten as much as possible, wild vegetables that taste bad but are not poisonous, and roots of plants, which can be eaten become the food of the deer tribe.

In order to find the rhizomes of wild vegetables and plants that are not poisonous, the deer tribe does not know how many people died of poisoning, and the final results were recorded by the deer witch and passed down from generation to generation. (I used to eat it directly, but now I drink it in soup)

Eat the meat, wild vegetables, and rhizomes of plants in large pottery and add salt, which is the food that people of the deer tribe often eat.

It is worth mentioning the salt eaten by the deer tribe.

The deer tribe learned the method of making refined salt from the snake tribe, and the refined salt is much better than those inferior salts that are full of impurities and have a very poor taste, but the deer tribe lives some distance from the water source, and the deer tribe cannot produce refined salt in large quantities, at most to meet the needs of its own tribe, and still uses those inferior salts when trading with the snake tribe.

Soon, when the meal was ready, the tribesmen came over with their own pottery bowls, and the adult males approached the large pottery filled with soup, and the clansmen who were in charge of serving the rice would first use several long wooden sticks to pinch out a piece of animal meat from the large pottery and put it in the adult men's pottery bowls, and then give them soup with wild herbs and plant roots.

When all the adult males have finished eating, it is the turn of the adult females and minors, and at this time there is not much animal meat in the large pottery, and adult females and minors can only get very little animal meat, and adult females can get more wild vegetables and plant roots than minors.

When it comes to the old and the sick, if the deer tribe is short of food, they may only get a bowl of salty soup.

After breakfast, Yuan took some adult males to pack up, and today is the day when the Deer Tribe is preparing to trade with the Snake Tribe.

Nowadays, the time for trading between the deer tribe and the snake tribe is almost between ten and fifteen days, and the number of transactions is too frequent, which is easy to affect the hunting of the deer tribe, and the deer tribe urgently needs to obtain pottery from the snake tribe, and the interval between the two transactions is ten to fifteen days is a good choice.

Pottery is becoming more and more important to the deer tribe, especially large pottery, complete large pottery can be used to hold water, soup, and pickled food, and flawed large pottery can also be used to hold fruit.

Zhi and the hunting team found a few areas suspected of being salty soil, but there is too much difference from the inferior salt brought by the deer tribe, one can only be called salty soil, and the other can be called inferior salt, which shows the huge difference between the two, in the case of being able to obtain inferior salt from the deer tribe, the snake tribe will not bother to dig the salty soil to make salt.

In order to make the deer tribe dependent on pottery, Su Yan deliberately asked Zhi to tell Yuan about things such as food pickling, boiling water and soup, etc., so that the deer tribe is now very dependent on large pottery, but the deer tribe can't fire pottery, so they can only keep exchanging salt for pottery from the snake tribe.

Fortunately, the deer tribe was easy to mine salt, and in a small amount of time every day, the tribesmen were able to collect enough to exchange at least three large flawed pottery and some pottery bowls from the snake tribe in ten days.

There are not many complete large pottery snake tribes, and after a year, the deer tribe can't exchange many from the snake tribe.

Large pottery, both intact and flawed, was very important to the Deer Tribe, and the trade between the Deer Tribe and the Snake Tribe was going on all the time.

Yuan was about to set off with the hunting team, all seven of them were carrying a package of animal skins filled with impurity salt, and the rest of the hunting team members were surrounded by weapons around the seven of them, in case of danger around, they did not carry heavy objects, and they could react faster.

It is also very interesting to watch the people of the deer tribe hunting team wearing rattan shoes on their feet and holding Teng Dun in one hand, the deer tribe has traded rattan items from the snake tribe, but they quickly imitated these simple rattan items, and the snake tribe did not care about this.

"Let's go!" Yuan shouted to the members of the hunting party, and walked at the front of the group with his weapon in hand.

Hearing the leader's order, the other members of the hunting party also followed Yuan out of the deer tribe's residence.

Yuan went away with the hunting party, and the other tribesmen would not sit down to rest, and the adult women who were not pregnant and some children who were close to adulthood had to look for the roots of wild vegetables and plants in the area near the residence of the deer tribe, and the rest of the tribesmen stayed in the residence, except for some younger children, the others had to work even if they were sick and disabled, such as weaving straw ropes, rattan shoes, etc.

Like other tribes, the deer tribe does not raise idlers, and they all need to contribute their strength to the tribe.

On the other side, Yuan led the hunting party to quickly move in the direction of the snake tribe's residence.

Coupled with the fate, the deer tribe hunting team now has a total of nineteen people, such a team is not a small force in the jungle, unless it is a group of beasts, a single beast will not attack the deer tribe hunting team, if it does, it is most likely that this beast will become the prey of the deer tribe hunting team.

Beasts that have lived in the jungle and have been in contact with primitive people know that primitive people are an animal without sharp claws and sharp teeth but full of attacking power, primitive people are not easy to mess with, not in the case of extreme hunger, beasts will not attack primitive people at will.

Yuan traveled very fast with the deer tribe, the purpose was to trade with the snake tribe earlier, and he would not stay in the snake tribe for long after the transaction, and on the way back, Yuan would also take the hunting team to hunt, and those hunting team members with pottery would follow behind.
