Chapter 218: Swap

Whether it is the news of the destruction of the Kite and Bear tribes, or the wolf tribe will lead the black feather tribe in the north to attack other tribes, it is a bolt from the blue for the tribes that have always been relatively calm.

For example, the grass tribe has not experienced a war for decades, and it has developed from a small tribe of more than a dozen people to the point where it is now, and it has not caused much conflict with other tribes.

Even for the Zhen tribe, the fighting in the past few years has not been as fierce as before, and the number of people lost in the past two years is only a few.

The news that a tribe was almost wiped out at such a turn was brought by the sheep tribe last time, but even if they knew that the sheep tribe had provoked Wu Yu, after discussion, everyone still accepted Yangyang and them, and even took the initiative to choose a relatively good place for Yangyang's people.

For the surrounding tribes, even if they know that there is a powerful black feather in the north, but after all, there are continuous mountains in the middle, and the black feather has never been to this area before, the two sides know each other, but they have never communicated.

Several leaders thought that everyone was the same, who knew that according to what Song Xuan said, the wolf tribe had an intersection with Wuyu a long time ago, and even the salt was exchanged from the Wuyu tribe, and then exchanged with them.

"Oh~"

Only now did the tribe react, no wonder the wolf tribe suddenly became stronger, not only attacking a tribe that had made enemies with him before, but also monopolizing the salt trade in this area.

The wolf tribe obviously lived up to their totem, they were very cunning, and they hid for so many years without letting them be discovered.

After the people of several tribes arrived, under the guidance of Song Xuan, they could see the true face of the wolf tribe clearly, and it was inevitable that they would criticize it, and the wolf who was kneeling in the middle naturally bowed his head and kept silent, allowing everyone to abuse.

But after all, the people of the Wuyu tribe have been blocked by the Teng Snake, and the disaster has not befallen them, and considering the previous kindness, the people of several tribes are relatively restrained.

After a simple criticism, I still came to the most important part of the trip, that is, the exchange, the important things were completed first, and as for the follow-up, there was still time to discuss slowly.

"Oracle, after that...... Salt ......"

After several leaders glanced at each other, it was still Cao Miao who said what they were most concerned about, anyway, the Wuyu tribe was not a particularly big threat to them, but Yanba was more important.

After all, most of the salt was from the wolf tribe, although Teng Snake also brought some in these exchange conferences, but after all, the number is too small, and looking at the amount brought by Teng Snake before, it must not be able to satisfy all the tribes, not to mention that the current Teng Snake is already a lot larger, and its own consumption is an astronomical amount.

Although the salt of the wolf tribe was exchanged from the Wuyu tribe, after all, it solved everyone's needs, even if it was a little dark, but it had been exchanged for so many years, it was relatively acceptable, at least it would not affect the stomach too much because of this.

However, what they didn't know was that the reason why Song Xuan didn't let Teng Snake bring too much salt over before was not because of insufficient production, but because of the relationship between the tribes, after all, Teng Snake had just arrived, and if it made the powerful wolf tribe unhappy, it would not be a good thing for both parties.

And at that time, Teng Snake's biggest enemy was the Black Feather Tribe, there was no need to provoke a new enemy in a short time, not to mention that the Wolf Tribe was so close to Teng Snake, and if it really robbed other people's business, a lot of fighting between the two sides was bound to break out, so Song Xuan had always maintained a lot of restraint, even if Shi Meng asked them again and again, only a few were brought over each time, and most of them were given out in exchange and delivery.

But now it's different, when Shi Yong takes the people of the wolf tribe back to Teng Snake, then the wolf tribe can be regarded as merged into Teng Snake, and several major leaders are also worried that there will be no salt in the future, but soon they heard a news that made them very relieved:

"There is a salt bateng snake, just exchange it with the teng snake in the future!"

Teng Snake has salt and all things, they can all feel it, but they don't know where it came from, and for the first time, it can be explained as salt from the black feather with a captive, but it can be there every time, and the number is increasing, obviously it can't be exchanged for it at one time.

But in any case, the salt thing involves the secrets of a tribe, even if the wolf tribe has been operating here for so many years, they don't know where the wolf tribe's salt comes from, and they don't know until now.

Since the divine envoy said that there is, then there is no need to worry too much, Song Xuan's character has been greatly recognized among the surrounding tribes.

However, the tribes that have exchanged salt with Teng Snake know that Teng Snake's salt is slightly worse in quality than that of the wolf tribe from Wuyu, but the cost performance is relatively high, and most of them are exchanged for the stone seeds required by Song Xuan, so although it is a little worse, it can also meet the basic needs.

But that was before, and it is obviously impossible to exchange those things for a year's needs of the entire tribe every time in the future, if it seems like this, according to the previous exchange ratio, everyone feels a little lost.

But now there is only Teng Snake, although Song Xuan has always shown a good temper, but now that Teng Snake is in a monopoly situation after all, although several leaders are a little worried, they don't dare to ask more.

Song Xuan knew the concerns of several people, after all, the refining method of salt was made by him, although it was filtered many times, but the quality was here, the conditions were limited, no matter how he got it, it would be mixed with a lot of impurities, and now it is the best that Teng Snake can do.

Even so, there is still some gap between this and Wu Yu's, although the most convenient way for several tribes is definitely to exchange it from Teng Snake, but if it is too black-hearted, they will not find another channel, but it will be a little more troublesome in the future.

Song Xuan didn't think about getting too much material from this, anyway, the manpower invested was not much, it was better to use it as a link between several tribes, so he had already made a decision before coming, and seeing that several leaders were hesitant, he said directly:

"In the future, I will change from Teng Snake to salt, and I used to change two bowls of food, but now I can change three bowls!"

To put it simply, the price plummeted by one-third, but in the face of this group of rough people who may not even be able to count well, Song Xuan can only express it in the most intuitive way.

"Wow~"

This price is still very attractive for several tribes.

In the past, each tribe had at least half a month's harvest every year to prepare for the exchange of salt, but now even the wood tribe with the smallest population can save five or six days of harvest, although it doesn't seem much, but this is calculated according to the harvest season.

The food saved in this province for at least ten days can be regarded as relieving a lot of pressure for several tribes, and if it is this price, then the quality is nothing.

Although the gap between the two can be detected, the feeling is not obvious when you really eat it, unless you eat it directly, it is difficult to distinguish it, and the most obvious is in the color, Teng Snake's is slightly greener.

But at this time, it's not a big deal, after all, with such a low price, there is no obvious difference between the experience and before, no matter what, it is earned.

Even in the future, there is no need to buckle the buckle rope as before, even if it is exchanged according to the previous budget, it can be exchanged for one-third more, and it can be used more in ordinary times.

As long as the problem of salt is solved, the leaders of several tribes will not worry too much about other problems, after all, the size of the Teng snake is here, and it is enough for them to eat enough to eat if they save something casually.

Although I don't know what kind of gains Teng Snake got in this battle, it can be seen from Song Xuan's proud appearance that it must be very rich, and it seems that the losses will not be too serious, although the two leaders did not come, but a few people knocked on the side, and they also knew that they did not have an accident.

And even if you don't add the captives, the rest of the Teng Snake and the Kite and Bear tribes join, and they can already be proud of the surroundings.

Fortunately, Teng Snake didn't show the same ambition as Wolf Chi, otherwise they really didn't know how to deal with it, and they were naturally reluctant to join directly, after all, it was an independent tribe, and what was going on under the fence.

But if Teng Snake really wants to fight, he will definitely not be able to fight it, but fortunately, the bad things in this fantasy have not happened, and Song Xuan treats them almost the same as before, and they do not appear to be high because of their strength and monopoly of salt.

In fact, it was superfluous for several leaders to worry at this time, after all, Song Xuan had never regarded them as opponents, as the so-called friends must be more, enemies must be few, and getting along with the surrounding tribes is not a bad thing.

And Song Xuan has never thought of embarking on the road of aggression and development, rather than consuming each other with the enemy, it is better to work hard to develop himself, after all, Song Xuan is also a traverser, and he has learned much more than primitive people, even if he has never understood the details of technology, but the general direction is still very clear.

As for the Wuyu tribe, it is completely because they have always refused to let go of Teng Snake, even if they fled here, they still sent two groups of people one after another, otherwise Song Xuan must be thinking of working hard and developing well.

But the war is not without benefits, at least the Wuyu tribe has sent a lot of people to Teng Snake, and Song Xuan basically doesn't have to worry about not being enough people.

And the metal that Song Xuan has been thinking about probably has a direction, if he hadn't seen the metal ore used by the mullet, Song Xuan might not have thought about going to Wuyu to take a look later, but now that he knows, he naturally can't give up, at least Teng Snake and the surrounding tribes have been looking for so long, but they haven't found metal ore.

Since there are ready-made ones, it is naturally more convenient to use them directly, anyway, they are all like this with Wu Yu, if it weren't for the fact that his strength does not allow it, Song Xuan now wants to directly lead people to kill him, and in terms of the contradiction between Teng Snake and Wu Yu, he will not have any guilt.

…………

In addition to the salt, the other exchanges were still according to the previous agreement, and this leader did not expect that the characteristics not only had enough salt, but also was so generous, and took the initiative to make concessions.

After the exchange began, everyone was afraid that someone else would exchange the salt if it was too late, so they all exchanged it according to what they had prepared before, but there was not much salt left in Teng Snake, and Song Xuan still discounted it slightly on top of the amount everyone wanted to exchange.

This can only be said that Teng Snake did not bring enough salt, Song Xuan did not dare to say that Teng Snake did not have enough reserves, after all, he just boasted that Haikou could meet the needs of several tribes, and now it is like this, how much will it cause everyone's distrust.

Either way, it was still a little more salt than they expected, and it wasn't a problem to meet the needs of a winter.

As for the other things, they are still exchanged according to the previous proportions, because of the savings on the salt, the leaders are obviously a lot more generous in the exchange of pottery this time, although there are not many things that can be exchanged for stones, but this year has brought a lot more seeds than last year.

This is also a taste of sweetness, last year, the surrounding tribes were still a little skeptical of what Song Xuan said, so when the winter exchange, everyone did not use all their strength, but just took the time to collect some, and the number was naturally very limited, who would have thought that the Song Divine Envoy would say the same, and exchange the seeds in their hands in full accordance with the agreed exchange ratio.

Later, although the tribes also collected some, but soon the heavy snow came, how to find large-scale seeds after the beginning of spring is very difficult, after learning a lesson, this year's wild fruit harvest is not good, several tribes have arranged for some women to go around to collect seeds.

Although you can't see any benefits when you collect them, as long as you can exchange them with the Teng Snake, the things you get are far more cost-effective than going to the mountains to collect the remaining wild fruits.

Song Xuan didn't expect that each tribe had prepared several packs this year, and the least was more than thirty catties, but fortunately, they didn't all want to exchange it for food, most of them were exchanged for pottery, after all, until now, these tribes have not been fully popularized, and they naturally want to exchange more pottery for use when they take this opportunity.

Teng Snake's pottery inventory was as large as ever, even if it added a few hundred captives, but not a lot of pottery was taken out of the warehouse.

The Wuyu tribe is similar to the Teng snake, the pottery bowl is basically one per person, but the pottery they use is newly taken out of the warehouse.

After all, Iris and his party escaped in a hurry, not to mention the pottery, and they didn't even wear their clothes, and after coming to Teng Snake, although they were all bent on revenge, they could also perceive that the pottery bowl used by Teng Snake was much more exquisite than those they used.

This time, Song Xuan also let the stones be loaded with a lot of pottery and bring them over, some of them were originally going to show favor to them, but now it seems that it is completely unnecessary, and several leaders not only have seeds in exchange for some, but also exchange a lot of things like animal skins and horns later.

Again, exchanging with these people is not about what you want, but about what they have, except for the Niu tribe, it is estimated that only people in the other tribes are more favored by Song Xuan.

The Niu tribe has had a much better life since it started trading with the Teng Snake, and it was originally worried about its stomach, but now it has the energy to specifically catch the beast, although it still needs to be exchanged with the Teng Snake, but it can also keep some from it.

According to this rhythm of development, to revive the glory of the ancestors, in Niu He's view, maybe it can be achieved in his own hands, so when he knew that what Teng Snake said was true, and there was no hostility towards them, Niu He was still very happy, and he was the first to confirm with Teng Snake when he exchanged.

Song Xuan had already learned about their approximate harvest this year from the people who went to the Niu tribe, but judging from the cattle that Niu He said were exchanged, it was obvious that the Niu tribe had left a lot behind.

However, although a lot of it was left, there were still two cows, eight sheep and four deer for the exchange of livestock, which was also a big deal, just the bowl, Niu He changed thirty, plus pots and pots and other things, the cattle tribe can also use pottery with peace of mind.

"Whoosh~"

Looking at the pottery pills that flew out of Shi Yu's hands, several leaders still opened their jaws, they really hadn't seen such a weapon, although they had thought of using stones to hunt, they were all thrown by manpower, and the power distance was quite limited, and the round thing that Shi Yu threw out with animal skins was thrown directly from the bottom of the valley to the mountain pass, which was fifty or sixty meters away.

"One sheep for this one, Tao Pill, thirty for one sheep!"

When they heard Song Xuan's offer, several leaders didn't think it was too expensive, after all, such a weapon still looked worth the price.

At this time, they knew why Teng Snake was able to withstand the attack of so many people from the Black Feather Tribe, but what they didn't know was that this was already a semi-eliminated weapon of Teng Snake, otherwise it would not be directly displayed in front of them like this.

"Divine envoy, I'll change two, three hundred pottery pills!"

"Oracle, I'm ......"

Although winter is coming, several leaders are still willing to exchange with Teng Snake.

However, they are not stupid, and the tribe that exchanged the most only asked for three slings, which was completely disproportionate to the number of pottery pills.

Teng Snake's so-called slings are completely made of animal skins, they are not short of animal skins, and it is not difficult to look at them, they are fully confident that they can do it, since they can do it themselves, there is no need to change it.

But the pottery pills were obviously not so easy to rub out, they didn't know how the pottery was made, and such a round stone was hard to find in the wild.

As for the rush to exchange now, it is completely to prepare for the next year's hunting, they have nothing to do in winter, if they can practice, they can directly plunge into the hunt next year, although the price they need to pay is not low, but gritting their teeth is not impossible to squeeze out, and Teng Snake did not ask them to immediately send everything in disguise.

Song Xuan also knows the difficulties of other tribes, although this year's life is not bad, but a few large expenditures may not be able to bear it, if you don't bring enough things, it won't matter if you bring them over at the exchange conference next year, Song Xuan is not afraid that they will cheat, they can escape the monk, they can't escape the temple, and several tribes won't move away for this little thing.

If it is really cheating, it will follow the mind of Teng Snake, and then it will be able to increase the population again.

Song Xuan behaved generously, and several leaders were not ambiguous, each carrying hundreds of pottery pills, although each sheep could be exchanged for thirty, but when they really used it, they would know that it was not as useful as they imagined.

When you are really hunting, you don't have time to collect the pottery pills thrown out, and when the hunt is over, it will be even more difficult to find the pottery pills of the same color in the fallen leaves of the forest, and the wasted time may be used to continue hunting.

At that time, they will need to continue to change from Teng Snake's side after a period of time, unless they can also master the production method of pottery pills, although Song Xuan will not be arrogant enough to think that they will never be able to do it, but it will definitely take a while, at least during this time, Teng Snake will earn quite a lot of things, after all, pottery is on Teng Snake's side, and it is basically a business without capital.

Even until now, there are only three people who specialize in making pottery, and there are basically only one person with stones to make some of them, although the number is not much, but it is not a problem to meet daily consumption.

Not to mention that there are not many scenes of Teng snake using slings now, and there are only a hundred pieces thrown out after hunting in a day, and everyone is not even too lazy to search after throwing, unless it happens to be at the foot, it will be picked up easily, and everyone who is a little farther away is already too lazy to toss.

Anyway, the pottery pills brought with me may not be able to be used up in a few days of hunting, even if they run out and go back to replenish them directly, the stone was made on a large scale at that time and fled until now it has not been completely used up.

Originally, after this year's exchange, several tribes will definitely exchange less for pottery in the future, after all, it has basically been able to reach one per person, even if there are a few tribes that are still a little worse, but it will soon be able to reach it.

Although the pottery is not so strong, but after all, they are not as rich as the Teng snake, they will not go out with the pottery bowl, and they are very careful to use it in the tribe, although it is inevitable to break, but as long as it is not completely split in half, they can continue to make do with it, and there are not many bowls that need to be replaced in a year.

After that, they will definitely not invest too much in it, but the current pottery pills can basically be completely replenished, and even after they taste the sweetness, it may be even bigger than the previous pottery trade.

Although the pottery pill is not cheap, but after all, it is still very worthwhile compared to the income it brings, the pottery pill exchanged for a sheep can not only bring a higher success rate, but also reduce their hunting time, especially around the cattle tribe where there are more flat land, the terrain is relatively empty, which is the best scene to use the sling.

However, the cattle tribe is now focused on catching beasts alive, I don't know if I can grasp this degree, but no matter what the cattle tribe does, it is a good thing for the Teng Snake, use more slings, Teng Snake can also earn some food or other things, use less slings, catch more live, and change more livestock from the Niu tribe in the future.
