"Is there no water in your tribe?" asked the bear.

"Hmm. The man nodded, and said very bitterly: "Our tribe is close to the mountain wall, and there used to be a stone cave on the mountain wall that would flow water, but a few days ago, the stone cave suddenly stopped flowing, and we had to go out to trade water with other tribes for the sake of our people." ”

"Then you're not going to dig the cave and take a look?" said Xiong Sickle, puzzled.

Shen Nong glanced at him speechlessly, in this era, without specific tools, it is difficult for ordinary people to chisel stones, like the Huangqiu tribe is also because of the ten iron pickaxes seized from the eel tribe to have the qualification to start collecting stones, otherwise no one can take a stone mountain in front of them.

Therefore, Shen Nong was very speechless in his heart for the question of the bear sickle, he didn't believe that a tribe he casually encountered now would have such an 'artifact' as an iron pickaxe.

"The mountain walls are too hard for our weapons to chisel. The man shook his head and said.

"Water from the mountain wall...... Could it be a spring?" Listening to what this person said, Shen Nong couldn't help but think secretly in his heart.

In view of the fact that the other party had previously proposed to trade, Shen Nong asked out loud: "Our tribe can trade water with you, but what do you want to exchange with us?"

"This. As soon as the man heard Shen Nong's agreement, he immediately happily took out a pale golden stone from a small wooden basket made of tree branches that he was carrying.

"What is this?" the people of the surrounding Huangqiu tribe looked curious, they had never seen a stone like this before.

"There are many mountains near our Huatian tribe that have this kind of stone, and it is relatively easy to dig, so we call it Yellowstone. ”

Shen Nong's eyes glared at the boss, what kind of yellow stone? Isn't this tm just gold ore? This kind of thing can be dug near the Huatian tribe? Doesn't that mean that there is even more than one gold mine near their tribe?

However, before he could start to get excited, Shen Nong suddenly came back to his senses, yes! Now that I am in the primitive era, what is the use of giving me 100,000 tons of gold? In the primitive era, gold and silver were useless, you might as well give me an iron ore or copper mine.

So Shen Nong couldn't help but ask with some uninterest: "What can this thing be used for?

"Ugh. The other party was stunned when he heard Shen Nong's question, indeed, with the existence of stone weapons, there was no need for the Huangqiu tribe to use another material to make weapons, and it was a big move.

"Dear Wu, look at my stuff again. At this moment, another member of the tribe of Huatian spoke, and saw him take out from his small wooden basket a bunch of long-stemmed plants about seven in number, this plant had a green stem, and the stems had leaves, and the yellow petals at the ends of the heads were very delicate.

When he saw this plant, Shen Nong's face showed an expression that was even more excited than when he saw the gold ore just now, if he didn't make a mistake in judgment, the plant in this person's hand was very likely to be the brassia in his impression, also known as rape flower!

What does it mean to have rape flowers? This will mean that Shen Nong can try to use rape flowers to extract oil, and once successful, then the Huangqiu tribe will have enough oil in the future.

"What's your name?" Shen Nong asked the young man holding the rape flower.

"Wu, my name is Bang. The young man replied indifferently.

"Oh. Shen Nong nodded: "Okay, then I'll trade this stone and this grass with your tribe with water, you have no problem, right?"

"Great!" The man who took out the gold ore earlier immediately said excitedly, "No problem, no problem, Wu, can we get water from your tribe now?"

"Hmm......" Shen Nong looked back at the ditch: "Xiong Yao, you take them to the earth well to get water." ”

"Okay. Xiong Yao nodded, and immediately led the stick and the others towards the southern wall.

Although Shen Nong felt that he was not a good person, since he had already agreed to make a deal with others, he should do it well, and don't think about yin others.

At present, the ditch may contain a large number of parasitic spores, and if they are allowed to pack the rods back and bring them to the tribe, then their flower field tribe is likely to be wiped out in an instant. There was no hostility towards Shen Nong of the Huatian Tribe, so there was no need for him to see this kind of thing happen.

When these people filled all the animal skin bags they were carrying next to Doi, it was officially time for Shen Nong to talk to them about cooperation.

For the resource of rape flowers, Shen Nongke attaches great importance to it, and the degree of attention even exceeds that of gold ore. Therefore, Shen Nong not only plans to trade with the Huatian tribe once, if he can, this kind of trade can be maintained forever, anyway, there is no shortage of water in the Huangqiu tribe, what is lacking is various resources.

"Thank you so much, Venerable Wu, this water will last our tribe for a long time. After returning to the Huangqiu tribe, Bang said gratefully to Shen Nong.

"It's alright, now that you've got the water, we should talk about the deal. Shen Nong picked up the seven rape flowers in his hand and asked, "Are there many of these things in your tribe?"

"Well, this kind of flower grows near our tribe. Bang nodded.

"It seems that there are rape fields around the Huatian tribe. Shen Nong sighed, this is really good news for him, as long as he has a large number of rape flowers as a material, then Shen Nong can use the soil method to extract oil.

As long as there's oil, that's a lot more to do.

"What about this? Shen Nong then picked up the piece of gold ore and asked.

"Yes, you can dig in the nearby mountains. ”

To be honest, gold ore is actually not useless for Shen Nong, and when more districts near the Huangqiu tribe are built in the future, then the bazaars that appear in order to facilitate transactions between various districts will inevitably need something that can be used as hard currency.

Gold coins made from gold ore are a good choice.

With gold as the currency, trade with the currency, the currency is only produced in Huangqiu, and if it continues to develop like this, it will be difficult for the Huangqiu tribe not to become the center of all tribes.

Looking at the seven people of the stick, Shen Nong couldn't help but fall into deep thought, and the stick and the others had to sit motionless in place when they saw him like this, not knowing what Shen Nong meant.

"What's wrong with this witch, you don't want to trade with us, do you?"

"I don't know, but we've even got water. ”

Several Huatian clansmen whispered secretly.

After a while, Shen Nong came out of his train of thought, and then said directly to the stick and the others: "In this way, in the future, our Huangqiu tribe will always maintain a trade with your Huatian tribe, we will give you water every day, and you just need to send people to send this grass and this kind of stone to me often, what do you think?"

"Huh?" Bang and the others were in a daze, but they didn't react, because for them, the value of water is the highest, and rape flowers and gold ore are everywhere, so they are not so important in the eyes of the Huatian people.

This will Shen Nong suddenly want to use water and they have been maintaining the trade of rape flowers and gold ore, and these people are very excited in their hearts.

Because since the stone cave in the Huatian tribe no longer goes out with water, the entire Huatian tribe is very short of water, and this time the water from the Huangqiu tribe is only enough for them to use for a short period of time.

After they run out, they still have to fall into the dilemma of lack of water, and at this time, Shen Nong is willing to make a long-term deal with them, which is undoubtedly great news for the Huatian tribe.

"Really, Wu, are you willing to trade with us all the time?" asked Bang excitedly.

"Well, but you have to send me some of these two things every once in a while. Shen Nong said: "In addition, this time I will send a few clansmen to return to your tribe with you to see the situation, if the terrain is suitable, I can lay a pipeline between your tribe and our tribe to ensure that your tribe can use water at any time." ”

"Oh. The stick scratched his head, obviously he didn't understand what Shen Nong was saying, but as long as he felt very powerful, it was right.

"When are you leaving?" Shen Nong asked.

"Now, I want to bring this water back to my tribe sooner rather than later. Bang said.

"Okay. Shen Nong nodded, and then said to the pecking bone standing next to him: "You go and call Beibang and Chi, Qiuzhi, and Shaking Tiannu over." ”

"Okay. After hearing Shen Nong's order, the peck immediately went into action, and it didn't take long for the four people to follow the peck from a distance.

"Wu, what are you calling us?" Chi asked.

"This time you follow the stick to their tribe to have a look. Shen Nong said.

"Huh?" Chi looked at Shen Nong with some incomprehension.

"I asked Tropang to go to the Huatian tribe on my behalf to see what the terrain of their tribe's ancestral land is like, and you are responsible for protecting Tropang for me, and you can't let him do anything. ”

Beibang asked aloud: "Wu, what are you asking me to go to the Huatian tribe to check the terrain of their ancestral land?"

"I'll tell you when you come back, don't worry about it now, and shake the sky, remember to bring all your drawing tools when you go to the Huatian tribe this time, and I want to see a map of the terrain around the Huatian tribe when I come back this time." Shen Nong looked at Shaking Heaven Nu and said.

"Okay Wu, I see. Shaker nodded.

After Shen Nong explained these things, the four of Beibang left the Huangqiu tribe with their heads and weapons, and set out on the road to the Huatian tribe.

Standing in the sentry hut and looking at the direction of their departure, Shen Nong suddenly couldn't help but smile and said: "Cross-tribal water transportation, this is really an epoch-making project, it is worth a try, if this time is successful, the Huangqiu tribe may be able to make a fortune with this project in the future." ”
