Chapter 246: A Good Start
Although the distance from several tribes here is about the same, when they come over, the other tribes are all swimming against the current, and the speed is naturally not too fast.
It wasn't until noon the next day that the first tribe, the Zhen tribe, was ushered in.
Relatively speaking, the distance between the tribes is a little farther, Song Xuan didn't expect that they would be the first to come, Shi Zhi hurried back after bringing people over, several tribes will definitely arrive one after another, if there is only one person left, it may be a little too busy.
"Oracle!"
I haven't seen each other for a winter, both sides are obviously very excited, and after seeing Song Xuan, Zhenshui ran over even more excitedly, of course, there is a bit of sincerity in this, and a lot of it is because of the strength of Teng Snake, only Zhenshui himself knows.
Aside from that, the two tribes are still very harmonious, and they can survive together in this world, as long as they have the opportunity, they naturally want to make a lot of friends, especially the Teng snake, which is rich in products.
The two of them bumped lightly on the shoulders, and then Song Xuan walked into the valley with the water, and it would take some time for the tribe behind to come over, so there was no need to wait here all the time, just send someone to keep an eye on it.
The tribe did not suffer any military disasters last year, and the battle with the farther tribes was also rare to stop for a year, which was naturally not merciful, but fought, but the losses caused to the enemy at that time were not large, and it is unknown how long this situation could last.
Judging from the complexion, the Zhen tribe is also doing well, at least after experiencing a winter, they have not lost too much weight, if in the past, after a winter, it is normal to lose a circle, although the winter consumption is less, but eat too little, you can only burn yourself.
Fortunately, since Teng Snake came, although everyone exchanged more things, but the payment actually did not increase too much, seeds, stones and other things belong to the purchase and sale of no capital, and Song Xuan is often half sold and half given away, but the quality of life has increased a lot when the payment is basically not increased.
After having pottery, the use of food has also been improved to a grade, the utilization rate up, naturally can save some out, although a day or two may not be obvious, but if calculated by year, it is not difficult to save more than half a month's consumption, and usually eat more comfortably.
Compared with the previous tribes, Teng Snake is obviously not so dark, under the superposition of various factors, the lives of several tribes have actually improved a lot, and they have not encountered any serious natural and man-made disasters, and the number of tribes has also increased slightly.
Now several tribes have also begun to learn to find more things that can be dried in the wild, especially fungi, every time they will feel that the food made by the Teng Snake is more fragrant, and later they will know that the Teng Snake will add some extra things to it, when they came to ask, Song Xuan did not hide it, and told everything that the Teng Snake knows now.
These things are born of heaven and earth, and it is impossible for Teng snakes to use them all, and I believe that they will be able to find out sooner or later, and it doesn't matter if they say it, and these are difficult to exist as staple foods, just to make the usual meat more fragrant.
But after all, it was not a one-on-one guidance, and it was not in season at that time, so I could only find some by luck by accident, although there were many fungi in the forest, but only some of them could be eaten, and the snake tossed for a few years, and only developed more than a dozen species, except for Song Xuan's determination, the back was naturally tried by people.
When they introduced the water, they used dry goods, and the difference between them and the fresh time was probably similar to the difference between the packaging and the real thing in later generations.
After several tribes knew about this good thing, they naturally went to the forest with joy to look for it, and there were a lot of oolongs that came out of this search, and poisoning was commonplace.
Fortunately, when Song Xuan spoke, he told them to taste it first after it was done, and then eat it after making sure there was no problem, at first they felt that what the divine envoy said was too exaggerated, and only after winning the trick did they become honest, and after finding a new one, they would find someone to try the water first, taste two bites, and make sure that there was no problem, and then gradually promote it.
Now the two are also exchanging what can be eaten and what cannot be eaten in the forest, although they are in the same basin, but the distance is not close, and the climate and products between places are also different, such as cattle near the cattle tribe, other tribes are relatively rare.
The same is true of fungi, and the varieties of poisoning of the two tribes are also different, and more exchanges can also be less poisonous, although the small test is generally not fatal, but weakness for a few days is still inevitable, especially the kind of vomiting and diarrhea, it is really tossing people, and the time for the large-scale appearance of fungi is not far away, and it is naturally necessary to do more knowledge reserves at this time.
Dong Laxi talked for a long time, and seeing that several other tribes still did not appear, he looked left and right, and carefully took out the slingling rope obtained last year, and asked Song Xuan:
"Divine envoy, can you change this more this time?"
Although there is no large-scale practical application, but obviously the water has tasted the sweetness of the sling, compared with the weapons in their hands before, the advantages of the slings are still somewhat obvious, whether it is distance or power is very good, compared with these two, the little shortcomings of the application scenario, naturally it is nothing.
Song Xuan originally thought that no one would want to exchange for slings and projectiles this time, after all, when they were exchanged last year, it was already very close to winter, and with the time of training, there would definitely be no chance to apply it on the spot.
Now it seems that they are a little underestimated, it seems that the use of a winter should have been more handy, and there was obviously hunting before coming, otherwise there would not be a rush to increase investment.
However, the slings are a treasure in the eyes of several other tribes, but they are nothing on the side of the snake, and after having a bow and arrow, the number of people using the slings has suddenly decreased, although the distance may be farther than the bow and arrow, but the power and use scenarios are much worse.
But even now, Teng Snake still has some slings, Shi Meng and they will bring some when they go out hunting, after all, the cost of this thing is almost nothing, whether it is a beast skin or a projectile, for the current Teng Snake, it is very easy to obtain.
As long as the scene is suitable, everyone will still use the sling, after all, bows and arrows are more troublesome to make, but in any case, there are still a large number of slings eliminated, these things that were already basically useless, now have a new use, that is, they can be sold to other tribes.
So when the water asked this sentence, even though Song Xuan became enthusiastic, although the thing of the stone throwing rope looks ordinary and easy to imitate, but the business of projectiles can last for a long time, and as long as several tribes are promoted, the demand will not be too small.
If the price is right, I think they won't search for it on a large scale and pick it up again, compared with pottery, Song Xuan feels that the projectile may become a new selling point for Teng Snake.
Although the number of consumables is small, it is not obvious to look at it, but in the long river of time, as long as it accumulates, it is definitely not a small amount.
Song Xuan immediately asked:
"Yes, how many slings do you want to exchange?"
However, when Song Xuan asked this sentence, the water suddenly became distracted, and Song Xuan roughly guessed why.
"God...... Divine messenger, can you just change the projectile in the future? ”
Seeing the appearance of the water, Song Xuan knew that it was because of this reason, after all, compared with the projectile, the slingling itself is very easy to imitate, and the methods of cutting animal skins of several other tribes may not be as clever as Teng Snake, especially after Teng Snake now has a bronze knife, the gap is even greater, but even if it is a stupid method, the cut animal skin is not impossible to use, and it is still quite good to be careful.
Even if they don't get the sling, as long as they look at it a few times, they can easily imitate it, and they can make it themselves, so naturally they don't want to exchange it for food.
Fortunately, Song Xuan already had a psychological expectation at that time, those last year were basically a one-shot deal, and this tribe was able to exchange them, which also gave Teng Snake face, if he was too careful about this, it would not be a good thing.
If the water can make such a statement, it means that the new catapult must have been made, and what is missing now is the high-quality projectile selected.
Although there was a little unhappiness in his heart, Song Xuan was quickly relieved, and he didn't say anything to increase the embarrassment, and then confirmed with Zhenshui the amount that needed to be exchanged, because he didn't have too high expectations before he came, so he didn't bring too many pottery pills out on this trip.
After hearing that Zongshui wanted five hundred, Song Xuan was also a little surprised, although the number was not particularly large, but in exchange for so many at once, it showed that Zongshui still had some courage.
Compared with last year's exchange, this time can be regarded as a serious business behavior, but also a good start to the exchange conference, the two sides agreed to wait for the Teng snake to send someone over, although the number is not particularly large, and it is even possible to lose money on a trip, but this is also a helpless thing, to give customers a better experience.
And this is only the first time, I believe that when they are popularized on a large scale, it seems that the demand will naturally increase, but I don't know if the other three tribes have this demand, if there are more, send two people to run, should be able to save the capital.
Waiting for the arrival of other tribes for this period of time, Teng Snake and the Zhen tribe have basically determined the various things that need to be exchanged for this trip, in addition to the exchange with Teng Snake, the things exchanged between them are very few, and they are not complementary, and the only cattle tribe with special products is not very popular, at most it is just some mutual help exchange at usual.
