A line divides the world in front of the clansmen into two halves, east and west, and the two leaders stand at opposite ends of the line, not daring to cross it.

The man standing in the east is named Eyue, E's surname is his surname, Yue is his name, and it is also the jade axe in his hand.

The tribal surname comes from the silkworms raised by his grandmother, who made the people wear silk clothes, hence the moth sound as the surname.

The tribe of Eyue is a very famous tribe in the Far East, and everyone who wears silk clothes knows their tribe, but they are not the most powerful.

When she was a child, there were two of the most powerful tribes.

One is the flower tribe and the other is the millet tribe.

The flower tribe worships the light, and there is a flower that always grows towards the sun near their tribe, the same color as the sun, and the tribe takes the flower as the surname, and each leader takes the name of Hua, which means light.

The leader of the Su tribe once led the tribesmen to plant millet on the riverbank, ending the history of the tribe gathering and hunting, so he took Su as his surname.

More than thirty years ago, a man became the leader of the Hua tribe, found a salt well near the tribe to boil salt, domesticated cattle and donkeys, learned to grow millet, and the tribe gradually became stronger.

Seven or eight years later, a great battle broke out between the Hua and Su tribes in a river valley with many springs, and more than 70 nearby tribes were involved in the war.

Eyue's grandmother's and Hua's mother are the same maternal grandmother, and the tribe naturally sides with the Hua clan.

In the battle of Spring Valley, the Hua clan won a great victory, and the Su tribe was defeated.

Hua did not kill them all, but married the female leader of the Su tribe, and the two tribes became one.

More than 70 tribes also swore an oath to be the lord of the alliance, and the rest of the tribes who came to Hajoga had more than 100.

After so many years, even though Eyue was still young at that time, she still remembers the grand scene, and the gifts offered by various tribes were piled up into a small mountain.

After the Battle of Quangu, Hua briefly ended the history of tribal warfare, and the leaders and heirs of more than seventy tribes had to grow up in the cities of the Hua tribe, and they were no longer tribal councilors, but officials with jurisdiction and decision.

Because of her exploits in raising silkworms, Eyue's grandmother became a silk official and taught various tribes to raise silkworms and draw silk. The rest of the tribes also have their own duties, some are responsible for teaching people to grow millet, some are responsible for raising cattle and sheep, and even one tribe is specialized in gelding bulls and boars.

Eyue remembered that it was twenty years ago, when she was just ten years old, growing up with the children of various tribal leaders, and looking forward to doing great things in the future and being elected as the leader of the rest of the tribes.

There is a lot to do, and there is no chance to perform.

The tribes that did not submit to the east were called Yi by Hua, Rong in the west, Di in the north, and Barbarian in the south. Hua had told the children that the tribe's territory had not yet reached the sea as the Yi people said, nor had it reached the end of the great river, and whoever could plant the banner of the flower on the seashore and the end of the river would be elected as the leader of the tribe.

After several years of conquest, the tribes continued to submit, abandoned their culture, and sent the children of the chiefs to the cities of the Hua tribe.

However, the good times were short-lived, and after a torrential rain, the great river that had nurtured hundreds of tribes flooded. When the tribes discussed moving away, Hua vetoed, but took hundreds of subjugated tribes to build the embankment together, in order to strengthen the faith of the tribesmen, he and his wife came to the embankment together, but in the end it was not blocked, and the two were also washed away by the water.

After the disaster, each tribe wanted to become the leader of the tribal alliance, and the Hua and Su clans, which had already been fused, also had a rift, and no one could hold it down.

Everyone knew that if Hua lived for another ten years, this rift would not have appeared, and the clan would dissolve and merge into a new large clan with tens of thousands of people.

But he's dead.

The tribes were originally just quarrelling, but eventually developed into wars, dozens of tribes fell back into a situation of endless warfare, and the city of flowers was no longer a place of joy and abundance.

Eyue's mother left the city with him, not wanting to get involved in the tribal strife, and migrated east with the tribe. However, the once subjugated tribes also rebelled again, and the leaders of the Dongyi tribe seized the opportunity of the infighting among the Huasu tribes, wanting to replicate the path of the Hua Dynasty and integrate the tribes to continue to attack.

The tribe had no choice but to retreat, and eventually, under the guidance of the priests, migrated westward to escape the war.

They followed the great river westward, searching for suitable land, burning the barren land to grow millet, and after a few years of hard work, they continued to migrate.

They no longer remember what their former homeland was like, but only remain in the hearts of some people, telling the newborn children how powerful the former tribe was.

They still maintain their previous habits, looking forward to the day when the war subsides and they can return to their homeland, but the hope is too slim, a few years ago they got the news that the Hua clan and the Su clan have been completely separated, and there is no strong enough clan to regain the glory of the hundred clans in the past.

And now, when E Yue saw Chen Jian's clan and saw the bronze weapons they used, he was a little surprised in his heart, he had only seen so many bronze weapons when he was a child.

His tribe also has bronze weapons, but there are not many of them, and when he was in his homeland, the number of bronze weapons was not enough, because there was only one copper mountain, and that copper mountain belonged to the flower clan, and few people knew the technology of smelting bronze.

He and his people had tried, but the smelted copper was soft, not as good as stone, and he thought there must be something mixed in it, but he couldn't guess what it was.

He didn't expect to see a group of tribes armed with bronze weapons in the far west, and he didn't expect that this tribe actually tied their hair, although it was not the same way as his own people.

Chen Jian is still a child in his eyes, but he does not despise the other party because of his age, and it is said that when Hua became the leader, he was only a teenager.

Moreover, being able to integrate an unhurried army has proven the ability of the leader - if it weren't for Chen Jian's presence in such an army, E Yue would not talk to him at all, but would directly let the clansmen crush them, and they had encountered many barbarian tribes on the way to migration, and E Yue had never talked to them.

Under the gaze of the two clansmen, the two leaders exchanged their meanings with unknown languages, gestures, and pictures.

E Yue found that the other party was very cunning, and this young man wanted things that he couldn't give.

He wanted to give the other party some silk, beef jerky, and crushed millet.

But what the other party wants are silkworm moths, cows, and seeds.

E Yue guessed that this tribe should also grow food, otherwise it would be impossible to support so many people, but what are they growing? Is it also millet?

He wanted the smelting technique of bronze, the kind of net that could catch a lot of fish at once on the boat, the spinning thread and seeds, and some salt.

Each has its own wants, but it is impossible to exchange them all, and the two of them bargain like this, from the time the sun is overhead until the sun sets.

In the end, Eyue exchanged six bulls for the six men, one of whom was her sister's child.

In addition to this, Chen Jian exchanged a few pieces of iron for some silk, and a hundred women for seven cows and a few donkeys.

The two swore that they would never attack each other and that they would live in harmony, and whether this contract could be executed was not whether they had credibility or not, but whether their respective tribes were strong.

Along that line, it was divided into east and west, and the people of the two tribes could not cross it, and a high mountain in the north was named the clan boundary mountain, and two flags were planted by the river.

E Yue gave Chen Jian a piece of jade, and Chen Jian gave the other party an ugly slag glass bead, agreeing that the people of their respective tribes could cross this line with these two things, otherwise they would be caught and hacked to death.

Jian Chen wanted to ask about the situation in the lower reaches of the Cao River, but he couldn't explain it clearly with just those few words, so he had to give up.

After the two tribes left behind the warrior hall, they evacuated in groups. By the time the scouts caught up the next day, the two sides were already dozens of miles apart.

Chen Jian looked at the extra cows in the team, and was very satisfied, those donkeys were very happy with each other, but these cows were very troublesome.

Six males and seven females, it won't take a few years for his tribe to have cattle available, of course he won't use cattle as food, cow harness is a very simple thing, this ox's neck is thick, it can fully support the weight of a thousand catties, and the efficiency of farming will be several times faster.

Ten years and eight years, your own tribe can also have dozens of cattle, and with such a tribe downstream, you can also start trading, and a planting tribe has enough consumption power.

However, after walking a distance, Jian Chen realized that something was wrong, these bulls were too obedient, walking slowly, and even some clansmen were curious to ride up without getting angry, let alone mooing and shouting at each other.

The more he walked, the more wrong he felt, Chen Jian ran behind the bulls, lowered his head and looked at it a few times, and couldn't help but scold: "What about below? “

There should be two round places that are obviously missing something, how can this give birth to calves?

…………

Similar cursing echoed across the riverbank to the east.

Eyue and the people are very satisfied with the hundred women they have exchanged, the tribe is about to burn the wasteland nearby, there is a shortage of manpower, and some of the usual work also needs people to do it.

A few baskets of corn ears were taken and the slave girls were licked, but the women looked at the mortar stupidly, not knowing what to do with it.

It was easy to teach the poppies to cook porridge with millet and water, but they grabbed a handful of millet and filled it in their mouths, not knowing how much water to add.

E Yue grabbed a woman and looked at her palm, although it was also rough, but it was completely different from her own people, there was no callus in the place where she should have held the stone sickle, and these women didn't know what planting meant.

It will take at least a month or two to start teaching these slave girls all over again.

E Yue looked at the west and couldn't help but curse, such a hundred female slaves are not worth seven cows at all!

Of course, he forgot about what he had given Jian Chen.
