The new bridge was built in only three days, but after all, the wood was temporarily cut down, and there must have been a lot of changes after the back was dried, so there was no large-scale leveling in front of it, and we will talk about it when the bridge is dry.

Fortunately, there are only two logs in total, so the changes should not be too big, and the weather is getting warmer and warmer now, so it shouldn't be long.

Although the top priority of the tribe is to cultivate rice fields, now is the time to dig bamboo shoots on a large scale, and the speed of rice field cultivation is also very gratifying, even if some people are removed, they can still achieve the expected goal.

The work of digging bamboo shoots to find mushrooms and wild vegetables is not heavy, so it was handed over to the women to complete, but unfortunately, the pandas that appeared last year did not come here again, probably because they were frightened by the snakes.

The four newly captured captives, the next day they devoted themselves to digging the ground, the night of staying in the captive courtyard and the previous Wucang and others still had some exchanges, Wucang and others were still a little surprised when they heard that the tribe sent people to look for them, but when they saw the black cow that had been imprisoned, they also knew that there was definitely no good result in such a tentative investigation.

Everyone also understood why Teng Snake suddenly took care of them much stricter, and the next day there were still people who wanted to look around to see if there would be people from their own tribe suddenly in the forest, but those who had such small movements were pulled out on the spot by the person in charge of guarding them, and then they were whipped, although it was not fatal, but the thin branches were still very painful to draw on the body.

Most people hope that the king will send someone to rescue them, although there has been action so far, but if they don't send a large army over, the possibility of them being rescued is not very likely, and Teng Snake's high-pressure policy can only honestly continue to dig the ground.

Combined with the rhetoric of the Wuniu people, Wucang also knew that it was impossible for the tribe to carry out a large-scale crusade without full grasp of the situation, and the food alone was enough to kill.

And the Wuyu tribe still doesn't know the specific movements of their group of people, and even the Wuniu people only knew about it after they were arrested, and it is estimated that the tribe has always thought that the dark clouds have taken their three hundred people to support themselves and stand on their own.

Soon these captives recognized the reality, fortunately, on the side of Teng Snake, as long as they were obedient, they only needed to pay some physical strength, and for most of them, life was not bad, at least they didn't have to risk going around to start wars with other tribes.

For some people of the Wuyu tribe, they don't like this way of life, they can live a good life, who wants to fight with others every day, but after all, the Wuyu tribe is rising in this way, this concept is permeated in the vast majority of high-level people, ordinary clansmen like them do not have the right to make decisions, but they have lived in Teng Snake for a few months, so that they can find the way of life they want, but after all, they are surviving as captives, not to mention the poor treatment, The main thing is that even freedom has been completely lost.

Moreover, most of the people of the three hundred black feather tribes brought by the dark clouds before had families, and they all missed their spouses and heirs a little, so after hearing that the tribe came to rescue them, some people started to think carefully, but fortunately, they were quickly suppressed by the Teng snake.

For Teng Snake, this is a small matter, and after Shi Meng's investigation, a group of people who sneaked up before have disappeared near Teng Snake, with strict traps and sentry posts, it is not so easy to touch it, and due to the trouble of food, the Black Feather Tribe should not launch a large-scale attack, so Teng Snake still has time to continue to develop, just need to have more enemies in the north, and when both sides get out of this predicament, it is really hard to say who will do it first.

There was no need to dig around the captives, the atmosphere in the tribe suddenly became much better, and all kinds of food were accumulating rapidly, and the pressure was obviously not as great as before.

A few days later, Shi Mao finally rushed back with a few people and two boatloads of food, and on the third day after Song Xuan went to mine salt, he took the people and the projectiles he had agreed on before to the major tribes.

This task is still very simple for him, the specific numbers have been agreed before, he only needs to deliver things, and receive the balance of several tribes at the same time, and the projectile is not heavy, it is easy to transport, and it is not afraid of wind and rain, and the speed is very fast along the way.

Especially on the way, he also met Niu He who came to send people away, he learned the news earlier than the people in the tribe, after all, it was the people sent by the Teng Snake in the past, so the major tribes were also very polite, and they dared to come according to the best.

After all, the envoy of this exchange conference has already told them, and the daily trade in the future will be carried out by Shi Mao with people, and the usual exchange Song Xuan is very generous, basically all of them are high, if Shi Mao's hands are tight, the extra things may be gone, and they have nothing to say, so in order to have a good relationship with him, the major tribes also do their best to let him enjoy it.

And Shi Bai, who was in charge of going to the Niu tribe to study, also returned to the tribe, this time he stayed in the Niu tribe for a very long time, before Song Xuan also said that he just let him stay in the Niu tribe when they went to the grass and wood tribes to change things, and then left with everyone and went to the tribe.

But the two discussed with the people of the Niu tribe, and decided to wait for Shi Mao to return from the Zhen tribe before taking him away, they also agreed on a time, Shi Bai set off from the Niu tribe one day in advance, and then waited for Shi Mao at the confluence of the river to come back, because this route is already quite familiar, generally speaking, the error will not be too large, and this is indeed the case, Shi Bai only rested for a night, and waited for Shi Mao at noon the next day.

The terrain around the Niu tribe is flat, and there are not many tall and dense forests, and it is not dangerous to walk along the river, so Shi Bai also rejected Niu He's kindness to send someone to send him, after all, he has been in the Niu tribe for so long, although Teng Snake has also given corresponding rewards, but in terms of many things learned and the time that delays the people of the Niu tribe, these friendships cannot be offset, so it can be delayed less, or less delayed.

There is a high probability that Shi Bai will take over the cultivation in the tribe in the future, so Song Xuan also asked him to summarize it well, write down what he learned as much as possible, and at the same time communicate more with several other people to strive to strengthen the tribal breeding business.

Just went to study, Shi Bai felt that the burden on his body suddenly became heavier, but he became serious.

Teng snake everyone only knows the importance of breeding, especially Shi Bai, who followed Shi Yan to learn behind him, knowing that breeding these livestock is not only very important, but also has a lot of difficulty, a little attention may cause casualties, the loss of each animal, for the tribe is very painful, especially the tribe's cattle and red deer, these can also be responsible for pulling things.

Of course, in addition to daily breeding, the most important thing to pay attention to is to let them breed as soon as possible, this step of the Teng snake and the cattle tribe is almost the same, although the experience of hunting and breeding Niu River will be more abundant, but after all, the previous years have not been able to let the captured livestock live for a few more years, that is, after the Teng snake joined, it was better.

Although the experience of the ancestors may still be left, but in their generation, it is only simply passed on by word of mouth, and it is estimated that there is not much left, but on the side of Teng Snake, Song Xuan can still put forward some ideas, so it is not an exaggeration to say that the two tribes are almost at the same level.

But fortunately, the scale of the Teng Snake Tribe is larger than that of the Niu Tribe, although the Niu Tribe has been able to retain some of the beasts now, but if it is not taken out every year to exchange a part with the Teng Snake, it is not very possible to maintain, although these beasts can be kept for themselves even if they are not exchanged with the Teng Snake, but the benefits brought are completely different.

So now, the number of cattle in the cattle tribe is also quite limited, and the number of several species combined is about the same as the number of deer in the Teng snake.

And they don't have the same good luck as Song Xuan, they caught a very psychic deer uncle, basically they don't need to worry too much about the breeding of deer, and the deer uncle can manage it well alone, although a few male deer have been added at present, but they have not been able to challenge their status, and the strength of the two sides is still much worse.

The operation of the tribe is gradually on the right track, and the area of the rice fields that have been turned over is getting larger and larger, and the roots of the trees that have been cleared are piled up directly on a few hills, which can be regarded as good firewood after they are dried.

After having the bronze plow, the speed of plowing the field is not comparable to the speed of clearing the roots of the trees, at this time, nearly half of the rice fields have been turned over, according to this speed, before the rice is planted, it is completely possible to complete the reclamation, which is greatly unexpected by Song Xuan.

In addition to rice, some other seeds have been sown by Song Xuan nearby, especially hemp seeds, collected last year, were planted all in one go, Teng Snake has experienced the benefits of hemp, although it is very troublesome to get hemp out, but as long as it is made, whether it is twine or hemp rope, the effect is much better than the animal skin used before the glass.

Song Xuan often said that the linen cloth made the Teng Snake people drool non-stop, usually it was fine, but in summer, the animal skin was almost unwearable, but everyone was still a little ashamed, and they would still circle around, but even this small circle would make people very uncomfortable.

According to the messenger, this linen cloth is light and breathable, and it is naturally very attractive to everyone, so when planting hemp, the Teng Snake people are very careful to clean the ground very clean, and the hemp is relatively simple to plant, and it can grow well without management.
