Xia Qi knew about the arrival of Qingniu and the others, but he directly threw the transaction with the Qingyan tribe to other people.

As the patriarch of a clan, how can he be bound by these trivial things every day?

Qingniu asked the others to trade first, while he himself infiltrated the Xia tribe's livestock area, which was an area specially set aside by Xia Qi after the end of the invasion war.

Because these animals have not been coming from another world for a long time, and that world is still in the autumn season, they still retain the characteristics of that period.

For example, he is fat and strong, and he is full of energy.

Seeing this scene, the green cattle were very surprised, knowing that it has been more than two months since the cold winter, and before entering the winter, the wild herbivores will consciously migrate to the warmer south. And the tamed livestock depends entirely on the preparation of the owner.

In the autumn, people will start to consciously collect grass and the like in order to feed the livestock in the winter and not starve to death.

However, the dried grass is certainly not as good as the fatty grass in terms of taste and nutrition.

In the long run, the livestock will inevitably cause malnutrition, coupled with the devastation of the cold winter, even in a large tribe like Qingyan, the domesticated cattle and horses are also skinny at this time.

But looking at these livestock of the Xia tribe, all of them who looked full of energy and fat and strong, suddenly subverted the previous cognition of Qingniu, which was even more incredible than the sudden emergence of so many livestock in the Xia tribe.

Qing Niu wondered if he could trade to find out how the Xia tribe had raised these animals to this appearance, but then he rejected the idea.

You know, a long time ago, he tried to trade with the Xia tribe for a weapon that could throw stones, known as a sling, but was refused.

If the structure of the slingling is quite simple, and you can make a seven, seven, eight, eight or eight at a glance, then that bow and arrow is far beyond the cognition of the entire Qingniu tribe.

Outwardly, the shape of the bow was not complicated, it was just a stick with a rope tied to it, but they had tried many times, but the end result was a failure.

Qingniu once tried to trade this thing called bow and arrow with the Xia tribe, but unsurprisingly, Xia Qi decisively refused.

The Qingyan tribe has a large population, and there are copper mines and smelting and forging processes, although the Xia tribe now also has this craft, but it all depends on the results of the transaction with the Qingyan tribe, once the two tribes are at odds, the Qingyan tribe stops trading with the Xia tribe, then the Xia tribe will be choked by the throat at once, and fall into a passive situation.

Don't look at the two tribes now, it looks like hello and I'm good, but Xia Qi believes that there will be a battle between the two tribes, and this time will not be long, at the latest, not more than spring.

Once spring comes, the prey will increase with the recovery of all things, and at that time, the Qingyan tribe will no longer let the Xia tribe exist.

In other words, if it were the Xia tribe, it would not allow a tribe to grow and grow under its nose.

The reason why the relationship between the two tribes is harmonious now is that each takes what it needs, the Qingyan tribe needs food, and the Xia tribe needs copper ore, once this balance is broken, then the two seemingly harmonious tribes will start a big war in an instant.

As for why the war didn't break out now, Xia Qi guessed that it should be something that happened to the Qingyan tribe some time ago, which attracted all their energy, and also suffered heavy losses. By the time they came back to their senses, winter had come, and the Xia tribe had fully grown.

Even because of the insufficient preparation, the tribe is short of food, and the last resort can only obtain food by trading copper ore.

Although the Qingyan tribe itself also understands that it is an enemy by doing so.

But there is no way, if they don't do this, maybe they won't be able to wait for the opportunity to come, and the entire Qingyan tribe will fall apart in an instant.

As for Xia Qi, he has long coveted the copper mine owned by this Qingyan tribe, besides, who wants to be a giant by his side? Which one doesn't want the other party to die early?

Xia Qi is also ambitious, and his plan to conquer the Qingyan tribe is being carried out in an orderly manner.

In early spring at the latest, he would launch an offensive against the Qingyan tribe.

Under such a premise, Xia Qi would do things to increase the enemy's strength if he was crazy.

On the other side, Qingniu realized that he had been here for too long, and hurriedly left the stable.

Before leaving, he also reluctantly glanced at the lightning, so this is the first time he has seen a BMW, which is really rare in the world.

When the green cow left the livestock area, he and his companions also completed the transaction, but it seemed that the faces of each one were not too good-looking.

"What's wrong, did you have a conflict with the Xia tribe?" Qingniu looked at Abu in the crowd.

No wonder he thought so, he was too aware of the virtues of these people in his tribe, each more impulsive than the other.

"Not us!" When Abu heard this, he said angrily: "It's those people from the Xia tribe, they are really too much!" ”

"Xia tribe?"

Qingniu was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the basket of fish at their feet, although he had not studied mathematics, but he could not be called stupid because of this, the number of these fish was obviously wrong.

At first, they traded with the Xia tribe, and agreed to exchange a basket of copper ore for three baskets of fish for the other party, but after a while, the Xia tribe said that the food salvaged was limited, so it became a basket of ore in exchange for two baskets of fish, and finally the leader agreed.

They can't disagree, because almost one-third of the food of the current Qingyan tribe comes from the Xia tribe, and once the two tribes have a conflict, it means that one-third of the tribe has no food.

And the Qingyan tribe was greatly injured at that time, once the two sides clashed, the Qingyan tribe did not have the upper hand at all, if the two tribes were in a war, let the other tribes take advantage of the loophole, it would be a big loss.

Sure enough, I only heard Abu say with an angry face: "We came to trade with them, but they only gave us such a little fish, and said that they didn't have much food, and they were only willing to trade with a basket of ore and a basket of fish." I said we wouldn't trade, but they refused, and if I hadn't reacted quickly, I'd have had to take the fish back. ”

After listening to Abu's complaint, Qingniu didn't believe it for 10,000 and didn't say anything else, but killing those cattle and sheep was enough for everyone in the Xia tribe to eat for a while.

Qingniu's first thought was that this Xia tribe deliberately lowered the price, but after meeting Xia Qi, he didn't think that the patriarch of the Xia tribe was a person who liked to take advantage of small advantages.

Qingniu said in a deep voice: "It's inconvenient to talk now, let's get out of here first." ”

As soon as the group walked off the suspension bridge, they saw four or five people coming from the direction of Daxia Lake, if it was just a few people, it would not attract the attention of these people, the key is that these people are each leading a horse, and behind the horse there is a strange-looking thing, and there are also twenty boxes of fish on it.

These people swaggered past Qingniu and the others, and a group of people seemed to have lost their souls, and their eyes kept following their backs.

Although a group of people have seen too many novelties in the Xia tribe, every time, Qingniu will exclaim with great insight.

However, most people are simply watching the excitement, and only a few people see the value of this.

Qingniu and Abu glanced at each other, and then said, "You are waiting for me outside the Xia tribe camp now, and I will be there in a while." ”

After saying that, he turned back to the camp of the Xia tribe.

A group of people from the Qingyan tribe, you look at me, I look at you, and finally obeyed Qingniu's order and left the camp of the Xia tribe.

After entering the Xia tribe, Qingniu directly found Pan.

A long time ago, Xia Qi handed over the transaction with the Qingyan tribe to Pan.

Now Pan Ke is busy, not only responsible for the city defense of the Xia tribe, but also supervising many miscellaneous things, like a big housekeeper.

When Pan saw the green cow that suddenly appeared, he thought that he was looking for his own theory, but he was stunned for a moment and then recovered.

"It turned out to be Brother Qingniu, I thought you didn't come this time."

No matter what he thinks in his heart, the smile on Pan's face is how sincere and sincere he is.

Qingniu was a little embarrassed and said: "The Xia tribe is too big, and I accidentally got separated from the team, and I finally found my way again." ”

If you don't say that you can't underestimate the primitive tribe, Pan looks thick eyebrows and big eyes, and the green cow also looks rough, but if you fool people, you will come with your mouth open, and with their honest appearance, if you really don't understand them, maybe you will believe the nonsense of these two guys.

Qingniu didn't directly explain the purpose of his visit this time, but turned around and asked, "Brother Pan, your Xia tribe is not sincere." The three baskets of fish that were said before were exchanged for one basket of ore, but how can it be said that it has changed?

Don't you know, the last time we went back, our leader was a good punishment. First two baskets for one basket, and now one basket for another. Brother Pan, you don't want to give your brother a way to live. ”

Pan Wenyan sighed first, and the expression on his face instantly became bitter.

"Brother Qingniu, I really can't help it, when the snow doesn't stop, I see that the fish in the lake are getting fewer and fewer, I can't watch the people go hungry, right?"

Pan: This is completely nonsense, the area of Daxia Lake is simply ridiculously large, and there are several rivers that carry a large number of fish into it, and after fishing for such a long time, there has never been a shortage of fish in the lake.

The reason why it was said that there were not enough fish to eat in Daxia Lake was because the population of the tribe was growing so fast that the rate of consumption exceeded the rate of fishing.

As for why not to increase the number of people in the fishing team, the main reason is that there are too many ice holes on Daxia Lake now, and Xia Qi is worried that the ice surface will eventually crack if it cannot withstand it.

Another point, in addition to the fish in the Great Xia Lake, there are also the prey that Xia Qi brought back from other worlds, all of which are completely piled up into a small mountain.

Fortunately, it is a harsh winter, and if you put it outside overnight, it will freeze like a stone, so you don't have to worry about rotting at all.
