Chapter 83: High Prices

This old man from the Xiniu tribe called himself Shijiao, but he didn't say what his identity was in the tribe. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 However, his eyes that flashed from time to time made Wang Chuan have to be careful with him, he may not be as honest as he looks.

The knowledge of accumulation cannot be exchanged casually, even if these things are explored with the heart, it will not be long before these people who have begun to catch their prey alive will understand. But there is such a thing as a technological advantage, and an early step is also an advantage. It's impossible to swap out a little cowhide horn.

But customers who come to the door can't just be pushed out in vain. Wang Chuan received this stone corner well.

The bamboo bottle of wine is even more charming to drink on the bonfire, give Shi Jiao a bamboo cup, invite him to sit down by the fire, and this begins the posture of a long conversation. The partners who buy and sell in the future will also have to examine their qualifications. In this era, the knowledge of the survival of such a relationship is naturally necessary to know the details of the other party.

According to Shi Jiao, they lived here ten days to the west, where the land was sparsely forested, and the water and grass were abundant, and hunting was not difficult. There are fewer people in their tribe than in the Vulcan tribe. Because it is exchanged for other materials on the side of the Vulcan tribe all the year round, and it is in the west of the Vulcan tribe, it is called the West Niu tribe.

After Wang Chuan learned about this, he said: "The method of raising livestock is an untold secret in my tribe, and now only a few old people in the tribe know about it. ”

Shi Jiao sneered: "So, if we want to know this method, we still have to join your tribe?" ”

Wang Chuan said: "Ordinary people join our tribe, and it is impossible for us to say this method. You must have seen that with such a method, let alone eating a few more full meals, it is not difficult to feed even a tribe. If you want to get such a good thing, you want to pay less, it's impossible. ”

Shi Jiao pondered for a while, obviously thinking about what Wang Chuan said about feeding a tribe, and only said after a long time: "Let's hear it." ”

Wang Chuan said: "The use of this method is higher than you think, so my asking price will be more than you think." The first is that your tribe provides us with two strong children with ten fingers on two hands, who cannot be shorter than I am now, before each winter, and provides us with ten fingers in a row, which we call ten years. Second, you provide us with a number of horns and cowhide tendons every year, and the specific amount is agreed upon every year. If you want to start counting this year, then this year you will be offered 10 cowhides, 20 pairs of horns and a cloak of cow tendons. Thirdly, to form an alliance with our River tribe, we must go on expeditions twice a year for ten years. If we can do it, ten years from now, we will definitely pass on all the methods of animal husbandry. ”

Shi Jiao sneered, "What's the difference between this and joining your tribe?" ”

Wang Chuan said: "The law of storage is very important. This must be the case in order to get it out. ”

Taught these people to raise cattle and sheep, they still have vast and sparse land, and God knows what they will become. The transition from the era of fishing and hunting to the age of animal husbandry, the growth of the population has been absolutely staggering. If one is not good, it may erect a great enemy for its own tribe. Rather than this, it is better to assimilate them by helping him raise children, and the so-called method of raising and raising them at that time is to gradually put these grown children back, so that it is like opening a ranch in his own tribe, and there is no threat.

Shi Jiao brushed his sleeves up: "Then we have to see if you can survive tonight." ”

Wang Chuan sat still, without the intention of retaining half a point. This kind of person is very different from the winter bear. Winter bears will bargain in various ways, although this kind of person has a vision and sees the various benefits of animal husbandry, but he lacks business acumen, and he is upright, saying that one is one, and two is two. Once you get a promise from such a person, it is much more valuable than a hundred winter bears.

Because of this, Wang Chuan felt that if he could become an ally with this kind of person, he might get more benefits than getting a ranch.

When the people were far away, Bihu said: "Will we offend him first by doing this?" I suspect that he may be the head of the West Cattle Division. ”

Wang Chuan said: "Don't doubt it, he is." And their tribe may not even have people like the elder and the witch, otherwise he would not be so decisive, leaving no room for even the slightest hesitation or negotiation. However, he did not refuse us when he walked away, he was just waiting for the outcome of our duel with the Vulcan tribe tonight. If we win, everything is still talked, and if we lose, he may take me captive. If we win and he hasn't talked to us yet, then we may have to kill this group of people from the Xiniu tribe at least before we go back. ”

The bark held up a piece of animal skin that had been cut from the clothes of the stone horn at some point and shook it, "There is a baby elephant, he can't walk." ”

Wang Chuan couldn't help but give the bark a thumbs up, this guy's ability to draw inferences is really good. If you don't take Wang Chuan's dagger next time, it may be better.

The duel between the River Tribe and the Vulcan Tribe unconsciously became the focus of the entire bazaar.

Removing the grievances and grievances that are indicated, fundamentally speaking, this is also a conflict of interests. The Vulcan tribe needs to suppress the tribes near it and maintain its dominance in the area, and this battle cannot be lost in any way. If the River Tribe wants to prove its strength and earn a position that matches its current strength, it should also show its ability in this duel.

Although the other tribes watched this duel with the intention of watching the play. However, they were also curious about the strength of this newly killed River tribe. And how much heritage does the Vulcan tribe have a long history in this area?

Like the Xiniu tribe, they are naturally waiting to see the direction of the wind to see if this river tribe that dares to open its mouth has the strength to match it.

The Vulcan tribe has set up a huge fire on the mountain, and I heard that various preparations are being made, which attracts many people to watch. Wang Chuan also sent someone to take a look, mainly to see if there was anything greasy.

The people of the River tribe were also making all kinds of preparations under the leadership of Wang Chuanβ€”everyone had a full meal before dark. Then I had a little drink in a relaxed and pleasant way. Finally, I had to check their respective equipment slowly. For them, it is really unwilling to use stone tools and bone tools in the duel, and the tribe has tried so many times, and they have long wanted to try the feeling of iron tools to greet people. Now it's hard to have a duel where you can let go of your hands and feet, and you can't use iron tools yet.

However, Wang Chuan's mind was not on this, in the afternoon, the two members of the tribe went out to dig up the roots of the tree to feed the baby elephant in the nearby mountains, and Wang Chuan actually saw ramie stalks and roots in these two baskets of roots.

Ramie is the plant used to make burlap. Different places have different names, such as domestic hemp, wild hemp, etc. It is said to have been cultivated for more than 10,000 years. Wang Chuan didn't expect that this would be found in the Vulcan Tribe. It seems that the Vulcan tribe has achieved today, and it is not a short-term achievement.

The two hemp found near the river tribe is really useless, this kind of good thing was found here, and no one is still in the wild to take care of it, so what do you say, go to a few people, and try to dig up as much as possible. Now dig a little bit to make seeds, cut another round next year, and in the fall, you will be able to spin your own thread and make clothes. However, it should be noted that the roots should be left in the soil, and the root system should be complete, which is taken back and planted.

Thinking of these people's clumsiness, Wang Chuan finally decided to personally lead the team to go and try to dig more before dark. If you want to play later than Tiger Bark, you don't have to follow. With five or six people here, there should be no problem with safety.
