Chapter 245: Approaching the South
Su Ying shook her head, "How is your father?" ”
Zhang Shulun said: "Thanks to the Orange Protector, Afu's wound has been healed, and he has just woken up. ”
Su Ying nodded, "What about the Orange Protector?" ”
"The Orange Protector has been helping his clan heal before, and he only stopped at dawn."
Su Ying didn't expect the orange protector's forensic skills to be so reliable, so she followed Zhang Shulun to the house of the patriarch Zhang Ping.
Zhang Ping had already woken up, and was leaning weakly on the bed at this time, he had heard what Su Ying had said with Zhang Shulun and Su Ying in the courtyard just now, and he also knew that Su Ying was the benefactor who saved him and his clan.
"Our Lady ......"
"You can call me the Lord of Sioux." She was somewhat resistant to the title of Our Lady.
"Thank you City Lord Su for saving your life."
Su Ying walked to the bed to check his pulse, the pulse seemed weak, but the heart pulse was still strong, and the wounds on his body had already been bandaged, so she didn't check it.
"It's good to be alive."
As soon as Su Ying's words came out, both father and son had red eyes, this time the tribe suffered a catastrophe, when Su Ying came, those people had already tortured and killed in the tribe, and I don't know how many clansmen died.
It was thanks to those people who had bad intentions towards the women of the clan and did not kill them immediately, and then Su Ying arrived and rescued the women who were taken away from the hands of those wicked people.
"I heard that City Lord Su came here this time to buy medicinal herbs."
"Yes."
"I've let them sort out all the medicinal materials, take it back if City Lord Su wants anything."
"You ask them to mark the types of all the herbs, and I will give them to you according to the previous price."
"Where can I ask for the silver of the Su City Lord, you are our savior, and the right of medicinal materials should be a thank you gift."
Su Ying has heard from the people of the Starfall tribe, because they are people who are outside any country, and to put it bluntly, they have no backing behind their backs, and they can only rely on cultivating medicinal herbs to maintain their daily life.
The businessmen who came to buy it also saw that they had no one to support them, and the prices they gave were very low, so they could only barely make ends meet.
If this batch of medicinal herbs is taken away by Su Yingbai, they are afraid that they will not even have food rations before the spring grain harvest next year, and people will starve to death, who will come to grow medicinal herbs?
"Here it is given to you, and you will take it."
Seeing Su Ying's insistence, Zhang Ping is not good at what to say, their current situation does not allow income without money, a lot of men in the tribe have been killed, and the rough labor force has been reduced by half at once, and I am afraid that next year will be a difficult time.
Su Ying took out two lists from her body, one of them was the medicinal materials that Tiankui City had purchased here before, and the other was the medicinal materials she wanted.
"Patriarch Zhang, take a look, can you grow these medicinal herbs here?"
Patriarch Zhang took the list and looked at it, "Some of this can be planted, but some are not good, our side is wet and cold, and some medicinal seedlings can't survive here." ”
"Those can be planted, you tell me."
Patriarch Zhang, let Zhang Shulun go and get a pen over, and draw what can be planted with a circle.
Su Ying asked them to mark the month of planting clearly, and then she could get the seeds or seedlings according to the above time.
When Su Ying finished chatting with Patriarch Zhang, the Orange Protector had already woken up, and when he learned that Su Ying was back, he rushed over as soon as possible.
"City Lord."
"Yes."
"Does the city lord want to go to other tribes to see? The Orange Protector asked.
When Zhang Clan Zhang heard Su Ying say this, he answered: "Does City Lord Su still want to go to other tribes to buy medicinal materials?" You don't have to make a special trip to this icy and snowy place, I will ask people to go to those tribes to spread a message, and ask them to ask someone to send you medicinal herbs. ”
Su Ying felt that this was okay, let their person in charge come over, and she could explain the situation to them directly.
"Okay."
In this area, there are almost ten tribes, and in order not to conflict between tribes, they privately agreed that the medicinal materials planted by each tribe cannot be repeated, so that there is no exchange of interests between tribes, it is not easy to have contradictions, and it is more conducive to the unity between tribes.
After all, they didn't have a backer, and the tribes still had to help each other, but the group of southerners came too suddenly, and before they could ask for support from other tribes, Su Ying appeared.
Su Ying's main purpose this trip is to understand the terrain here and the area where the tribe is located, and to inquire about the cultivation of some medicinal herbs, in addition, there is another purpose, which has nothing to do with the tribe.
Patriarch Zhang sent someone to inform the people of other tribes, and while waiting, he arranged for Su Ying to stay in his house temporarily.
Most of the people of the tribe are very industrious, and the clansmen will help each other, so each family has shelter from the wind and rain.
The patriarch's family also had a vacant house, and Su Ying lived there temporarily before the arrival of people from other tribes.
At night, Zhang Shulun and his mother killed a chicken for Su Ying, and also made a wild vegetable egg soup, the dish used to make the soup was still fresh Chinese cabbage, and a scrambled egg, and also made a bowl of plum dried vegetables and meat.
There weren't many dishes, but they were already the best they could come up with.
After Aunt Zhang cooked the meal, she brought it directly to Su Ying's house.
"City Lord Su, you eat, there is still big white rice in the pot, if you don't have enough to eat, you can say hello, I will serve it to you."
Su Ying glanced at the food on the small table, "It's all mine?" ”
"Yes, yes, we still have it in the pot, you can eat it, let it go."
Su Ying could feel their kindness, and she was generally not polite to this kind of thing.
"Thank you very much."
"No thanks, no thanks, it is also our blessing to be able to repay the city lord of Su." Aunt Zhang was afraid that Su Ying would be uncomfortable in the house, so she went out of the house after putting the food away.
Su Ying was indeed not polite, the four dishes were stunned and ate all the leftovers, and by the way, he also killed half a pot of rice.
She has been eating dry food for the past few days, and she has long been hungry for Uncle He's cooking, although she can't eat it yet, but it's good to be able to eat a mouthful of hot food.
After eating and drinking, Su Ying took out the map that Patriarch Zhang gave her.
It was a map of the Northern Wastelands, more detailed than anything she had seen before.
Looking at the annotations on the map, she realized that behind the city of Tiankui, that is, in the direction of the tribe, there was another border in the south, and the direction of the entrance to the northern wasteland was the southern border of the southern country, and this side was the western border.
It can be seen from this that this northern wilderness land is so big that it has carved out a quarter of a country one after the other.
And here, there are not only this tribe, but also countless ethnic groups of all kinds and sizes distributed in other places.
