Kun didn't have any opinions, this was originally extra extra food, without the craftsmanship of the Great Witch, they wanted to roast some beast meat to sell, and few people would come to buy it.

If it weren't for the fact that Dawu knew that this was an old vegetable, with its seeds in it, it would be said that when the weather warmed up in spring, it would be possible to grow edible tender gourds. Otherwise, if you give them away for nothing, you may not want this hard old gourd, except for knocking people's heads a little painfully, what's the use of anything else?

Both sides were happy, tired and happy.

There are too many things, and the original rattan basket has long been too full.

Xu Yin said to Kun: "I forgot to tell you today, when I go hunting tomorrow, I will cut some vines and come back by the way, and now make a few rattan baskets, otherwise I can't bring them." ”

Kun nodded.

He also thought of this, and originally wanted to cut some vines in the afternoon, but he was afraid that he would come back too late, so he didn't dare to delay and set off early tomorrow.

After that, for three days in a row, they were all setting up stalls to sell grilled fish, called flower chicken, and animal meat soup, as long as Xu Yin accepted it, they would change everything, regardless of animal skins, all kinds of utensils, wild fruits and wild vegetables from the north and south, and beautiful stones.

They were sold until the day before the end of the fair, when the NPC who traded sweet potato leaves for a pair of straw sandals came up and said, "Our tribe is going to leave tomorrow, so I'll take you to find that wild vegetable today." ”

Xu Yin was waiting for him.

I'm tired of eating potatoes and want to eat sweet potatoes.

"You bring the supplies to the raft and wait for me there, and I'll be back as soon as possible."

After explaining a few words to the mountain, Xu Yin carried a newly woven empty rattan basket on her back and a bow and arrow, and set off with the man.

The road was indeed a bit far, and I went over the hill to the valley on the other side and saw a few sweet potato vines.

It is late autumn, it stands to reason that the seasonal vegetables and fruits have long passed the ripening period and should wither, but the valley is surrounded by mountains, the mountain wall is high, the cold wind is howling outside, and the valley bottom is warm like spring, no wonder this season, you can still see the green sweet potato leaves.

"Thank you." Xu Yin gave him two pairs of straw sandals and a bottle of salt as promised.

The man went away happily, and went to hunt another wave of animal meat before dark, and with salt it would be much better to roast it.

Wild vegetables are tender and tender, but no matter how delicious they are, they will not be eaten as rice, neither hungry nor fragrant as animal meat.

After Xu Yin waited for the other party to leave, she began to dig sweet potatoes.

Sure enough, under each sweet potato vine, there is a large string of large sweet potatoes with red skin and white hearts.

In a short time, the rattan basket she carried was filled.

There are a lot of them left, all of which are ripe sweet potatoes, and it is a waste not to dig them.

I just went and cut some vines and came back, quickly knitted a few rattan baskets, and finally loaded three whole baskets.

She carried a basket on her shoulders and a basket in each hand, and went down the mountain with a relaxed look.

Perform light skills and return to the river of the Tibetan bamboo raft, meet the mountains and prepare for the return journey.

"Dawu, it looks like someone is following us."

Dashan noticed this problem, his expression was grim, and he hurriedly reported to Xu Yin.

Xu Yin is carrying a rattan basket on a bamboo raft.

Fortunately, it is a double-decker bamboo raft, the bamboo here is relatively thick, and the double-decker bamboo raft has a large carrying capacity.

"Ignore it, we'll take care of ourselves."

She guessed that it was the people of the central tribe, the Central Plains, the richest of the central tribes, and of course she didn't want a powerful new tribe to rise and compete with them for resources.

Of course, other tribes are not excluded. After all, so many furs and other items have been exchanged, and the temptation of pottery and hemostatic dispersion is not small, and there are many people with red eyes.

If it weren't for the fact that there was an unlucky guy who came to find fault that day, she showed her hand in public and shocked those people, these days would not be so peaceful, and no matter how coveted she was, she could only do this kind of thing secretly.

Fortunately, the water and land routes are not connected in some sections, and they cannot be tracked for long.

Sure enough, when the two rivers converged, the bamboo raft went upstream, and after entering the river with a wide water area, the little tail that followed was gone.

The two sides of the river are not all flat wastelands, there are also cascading mountains, cliffs and valleys, and before the people who follow them have crossed the mountain, Xu Yin's bamboo raft team has already passed through the green mountains on both sides and walked away.

The people who were sent by their respective tribes to follow them were so angry that they had nothing to do but stare dryly.

On the way back, the temperature plummeted and snow fell in the sky.

Ah Chun took out the thickest piece of long-white fur animal skin and draped it on Xu Yin's shoulder.

The whole person was warm all at once.

Xu Yin rubbed her hands and asked everyone to take out the animal skins in the rattan basket and pick out the thick ones.

Some hides are small and require several stitches to wrap around the body.

"Ah Chun, you brought a bone needle, right?"

"Bring it, but the witch, these animal skins ......"

"Things are dead, people are alive, get through the difficulties in front of you first, and then redistribute them when you go back."

Ah Chun stopped being verbose, took out the bone needle he carried with him, and together with Ah Xia, he temporarily rushed out a few animal skin coats, one for each of them.

Seeing this, Kun also asked his subordinates to take out the animal skin, and wrap it all around his body.

He felt that the great witch of the Xu tribe must have a premonition, so he asked everyone to wrap the animal skin on his body.

Walking along the way, he figured out a truth: everything that listens to Xu Dawu is right.

……

When passing by the reeds, Xu Yin told the leading bamboo raft to stop and go ashore to rest for a day, and she wanted to cut back all the reeds here.

"Dawu, you can't eat this."

They had eaten it before, and it was not delicious at all.

“…… Well, but there are other uses, go back and I'll teach you. ”

"Okay, big witch."

Everyone stopped asking, buried themselves in cutting reeds, and moved them to the bamboo raft one by one.

The people of the cross-river tribe, although they don't know what this is for, but the great witch of the Xu tribe said that it was useful, and they also followed the bamboo raft, anyway, they couldn't make a mistake by following the pace of the Xu tribe.

Before the snowflakes got bigger, the group worked together to harvest and bundle the reeds swaying in the wind and carry them onto the bamboo raft.

After that, he traveled almost day and night, braving the wind and snow to rush back to the tribe.

Kun strongly invited Xu Yin to be a guest of the Cross-River Tribe.

This year, they exchanged several times more materials from the trade fair than in previous years, all thanks to Xu Dawu's blessing!

I have long wanted to do my best to be a landlord.

Xu Yin smiled and declined: "Thank you for your kindness, it's just that the snow is getting thicker and thicker, and it's not good to go back into the mountains, so we won't stay longer, and when spring begins, you send a few people over, and I'll teach you to grow things." In the case of reed flowers, spread them among haystacks and hides to increase warmth. If your feet are cold, you can also put them in straw sandals. ”

After saying that, she sent a few sweet potatoes to the cross-river tribe.

"It's not that I'm stingy and unwilling to give more, I plan to plant it after the spring, and now I can only taste it. You can just roast it like a black potato and eat it, and if the harvest is good next year, you can keep some of it as a staple food, and then you can change some more, and you can also come and learn if you want to plant. ”

Speaking of which, she learned premeditation from Min, who is her teacher, and it is also appropriate to get some benefits for the tribe led by the teacher.
