Chapter 152: A Deal with Ah Xing
Then, the scar left by the original bamboo branch growth part of the bamboo is decorated with paint, commonly known as phoenix eye, equipped with a grip, engraved with an inscription, and then several times of lacquer. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info At that time, in order to find lacquer to make furniture, the hunters of Banpo dolphins did not run on the mountains, but in the end, the hard work paid off, if there was no lacquer, Tang Ge's fishing rod would not be able to do.
After the lacquer is dry, it will be sanded. Because after the lacquer, the fishing rod is gray, but after the surface of the lacquer is polished, it will become smooth and shiny, and the texture of the bamboo under the lacquer will be completely displayed.
In the process of making fishing rods, Tang Ge also made several brackets for fishing rods, which are also the same process, but the requirements are not so strict.
Finally, the rod and bracket with the tonality are placed in the marked rod bag, and at this point, the rod is completely made.
A fishing rod has been made for a few months, but in Tang Ge's eyes, it is only passing, barely usable, but in the eyes of others, it is very amazing. What's more, in addition to fishing rods, he also made fishing lines out of silk, fish hooks out of bronze, and vertical drifts out of reeds. Standing drift alone is an epoch-making invention.
This set of all-handmade things is also a powerful artifact in the previous life, let alone in a primitive society.
Although Tang Ge had a fishing rod, he didn't actually plan to fish, everything was just a matter of habit. The reason why Ah Kang accompanied him to fish was to take this opportunity to deepen their understanding of each other. After all, we are now a family, and we will have to deal with each other for the rest of our lives, so it is good to know more about each other's temperaments.
Since the purpose was not fishing at all, Tang Ge did not make bait, but asked Ah Kang to dig up some earthworms casually, catch a few insects and come to the water's edge to prepare for fishing. Unexpectedly, when I arrived at the waterhole not far from the Twin Hook Tribe, I saw an unexpected person.
Ah Xing, the young chief of the Doublehook tribe, is also fishing by the waterhole. This guy probably has been avoiding Tang Ge, but he didn't expect to run into him here.
"Ah Xing, you're also playing here!" When Ah Kang saw Ah Xing, he greeted him affectionately.
After Ah Xing saw Tang Ge, his face was ugly. Ah Kang greeted him, and he just nodded in reply. Seeing Tang Ge and them carrying bamboo and stools, he knew that they were also here to fish, so he dragged his own fish basket, and the fish basket immediately made a sound of fish hitting the water, and it seemed that he had gained a lot.
After implicitly selling his catch, Ah Xing glanced at Tang Ge, and then looked proud.
Seeing Ah Xing's childish nature, Tang Ge felt funny, and nodded at Ah Xing, which was regarded as a greeting. Who knew that this guy snorted and turned his face aside. Tang Ge didn't care either, but worked with Ah Kang, set up a stall, and started fishing.
As soon as Tang Ge's fishing rod was taken out, Ah Xing immediately looked shocked, let alone him, so far it is estimated that no one would have thought that the fishing bamboo rod could be divided into sections. By the time Tang Ge had finished supporting his full set of fishing rigs, Ah Xing's expression was only envious, jealous and hateful.
After putting things up, Tang Ge smiled at Ah Xing again, but Ah Xing turned his ugly face to the side again.
In Ah Kang's hand is a green bamboo, which has just been chopped. Tang singers are all handmade fishing rods, and the two of them hold the rods, and they start chatting with each other. Tang Ge could feel that Ah Kang obviously meant to please himself, and Tang Ge was willing to accept this. After all, this man is already his uncle, and whether he likes it or not, this cannot be changed. So instead of being awkward all day long, let's try to see if you can accept him as a member of your family.
During the chat, Tang Ge felt that Ah Kang was the same as his appearance, that is, honest and down-to-earth, to the point, and very gentle. Gentleness is not a mother, but a manifestation of a good temper. After combining various factors, Tang Ge found that Ah Kang was indeed a good match for Honggu.
After figuring out this thought, Tang Ge's awkwardness was much less.
Tang Ge's mind was no longer fishing, so he didn't gain anything. On the contrary, it was Ah Xing, who didn't work hard to catch two more, and then there was no movement.
Tang Ge has an inexplicable fear of most mollusks, so he didn't use the caterpillars caught by Ah Kang, but used earthworms for fishing. Earthworms and the like, I was used to using them in my previous life, but I didn't feel disgusted.
However, when the earthworm was thrown down, the small fish began to make trouble, and he didn't catch a few decent fish for an afternoon, Tang Ge remembered that before leaving, Honggu also specially mentioned that he wanted to eat fish, so he came to Ah Xing's side to talk.
"You like fishing, too?" Tang Ge asked with a smile.
"Hmm!" Ah Xing snorted coldly and replied, his face was still not good-looking. Tang Ge didn't mind, he also understood that no matter who was beaten up by others, his face would not be much better when they met again.
Tang Ge unceremoniously pulled up Ah Xing's fish basket and looked at it, there were more than a dozen crucian carp, carp, grass carp and the like, large and small, and at this moment, in the middle of autumn, it was the time when the fish were fat, and the fresh fish were bouncing in the fish basket, which looked particularly gratifying.
"I'll talk to you about something." Tang Ge put down the fish basket and said to Ah Xing with a smile.
Ah Xing looked vigilant: "What's the matter?" ”
"Honggu wants to eat fish, but I didn't catch it. But I think you're pretty good at fishing, how about exchanging things with you? Tang Ge said.
When Ah Xing heard this, he looked disdainful: "It's just a few small fish, you can take them away if you want them, and you can still use them?" ”
Tang Ge shook his head and said, "How can it be done?" It's your catch for an afternoon, and I can't take it for nothing. Do you see my fishing rod? I swapped my fishing rod with you. ”
"What did you say?" Ah Xing's face was incredulous. He even wondered if something was wrong with his ears. You must know that a good fishing rod is no less attractive to a fishing enthusiast than a virgin who has been open for a long time and suddenly sees a beautiful woman who is delivered to the door. What's more, anyone who looks at Tang Ge's fishing rod knows that it is precious and abnormal, and besides, these two people had a conflict not long ago!
Tang Ge smiled faintly and said decisively: "That's it." The rod is yours and the fish is mine. ”
After speaking, he lifted the fish basket with a bang, and beckoned Akang to leave without looking back. Only Ah Xingleng, who was shocked, was left there.
Tang Ge's deal is the same as his friendship with Akang. Since they are allies, they are their own people. With Tang Ge's ability, he doesn't mind letting his life be better. As for the fishing rod, Tang Ge really didn't pay attention to it. Because now someone makes a fishing rod for him, he has a lot of better ones, and there are a lot of long and short ones.
In the evening, Honggu wanted to eat fish tart, but Tang Ge ruthlessly refused. He made fried fish, steamed fish and grilled fish pieces with his own hands. With the chicken soup that Honggu had stewed all afternoon, as well as all kinds of animal meat, a very rich table was also placed.
On this night, Tang Ge and Adam stayed at Honggu's house. Since Adam left the tribe, he followed Tang Ge closely wherever he went, and he seemed very sensible. However, Tang Ge was still not at ease, afraid that Adam would encounter danger when he went out to Sahuan in the middle of the night, so he closed the door to death.
The next day, Lao Pimple accompanied Tang Ge to go around the Shuanggou Tribe, and Tang Ge's evaluation of the Shuanggou Tribe was one word, that is: poor! He still stubbornly believed in his heart that Honggu would definitely be wronged if she lived in such a poor tribe.
At noon, Tang Ge was invited to a banquet at Lao Pimple's house. Although the banquet was not very rich, it could be seen that the old pimple had put a lot of thought into it. Tang Ge did not refuse the gesture of the old pimple at the banquet, and faintly proposed whether the two tribes could develop together, and the old pimple was overjoyed.
Ah Xing also appeared at the banquet, and after the deal Tang Ge made with him, the little guy finally stopped putting on a face, and it seemed that he had forgiven Tang Ge for making people beat him.
The next day, bidding farewell to Honggu, Tang Ge and his party continued to set off on the road. This time their destination was the North Mountain tribe.
After playing well with Ah Liang in the Beishan tribe for two days, Tang Ge and his party of five people and one tiger officially entered the wasteland.
The wasteland is very wide, the whole wasteland is unobstructed, the grass is overgrown, and the wasteland is surrounded by mountains. Because there is no terrain to rely on in the wasteland, and wild beasts are rampant, it is not suitable for habitation, so almost all the surrounding tribes live in the mountains, and there are few people in the wasteland.
Tang Ge has been wandering aimlessly around the wasteland, carefully recording all the places he has walked. Draw a map of the topography, species distribution, soil quality, and water resources of the wasteland. Eventually, they stopped between two hills, one large and one small.
These two peaks, one high and one short. The tall one, littered with rocks, was made up entirely of large and small stones, all sorts of oddly shaped stones exposed, the largest one was the size of a few houses, and there were no trees on the mountain.
The low mountain was like a boulder jutting out of the wasteland. The mountain is not high, but it is steep and straight. On the sunny side, there is a mountain stream flowing down, and on the shady side, there are not many plants and trees, not even mud, but there are a few tenacious pine forests, born between the stone crevices of the mountain cliffs.
The two peaks are not far apart, but the mountain types and landforms are different, which is very peculiar.
After Tang Ge carefully surveyed the two mountains, he came to the plain below the mountain. Separate the weeds, grab a handful of fertile black soil, and be silent for a long time. After carefully measuring the hill again, Tang Ge and his party went home directly.
