Hearing Guang Hou say that he had some impression of the "Yanjiao tribe", Shao Xuan was happy, but the next moment, Guang Hou said, "If I remember correctly, your totem is a fish, right?"
Shao Xuan was silent for a few seconds, then handed over the stone card the shaman gave him, "This is our tribe's totem. I have come with the goodwill of the Yanjiao tribe, I am very happy to meet you. "
"Oh?" Guang Hou didn't care. He took the stone card with the totem pattern drawn on it from Shao Xuan and looked at it. He didn't have any impression of it, so he handed the stone card back. He smiled so much that his chin folded into several layers. He said to Shao Xuan, "I still believe in the guests of the Drumming tribe."
Shao Xuan told Guang Hou the purpose of his visit, and told him about the Chacha that was staying at the border of the Pu tribe. Unfortunately, although Guang Hou looked more amiable than the chief of the Drumming tribe, he refused immediately.
"The bird you mentioned just now, I don't want it to enter this territory. In the past, very few large birds came here, and we don't have a good impression of birds."
Many aquatic animals didn't like birds that came from the sky. Shao Xuan knew this, and he could also see that Guang Hou didn't care about him. It was only because of Qing Yi that he said a few words. Otherwise, he wouldn't even bother to look at Shao Xuan. While he was talking to Shao Xuan, Guang Hou had already looked at the food on the side a few times.
After the conversation, Shao Xuan said goodbye and left. Before he entered the Pu tribe, he had told the Chacha that if it heard the whistle for permission, it should come over. If it heard the whistle for refusal, it could move freely outside.
Maybe the Chacha was happy to play outside, but there were more restrictions in the tribe.
After leaving Guang Hou's house, Qing Yi said apologetically, "I didn't help."
"It's okay, the Chacha is more free outside, wait for me to go out and call it." As for Guang Hou's attitude, Shao Xuan didn't think too much about it. He didn't want to get anything from the Pu tribe, he just wanted to see more of the tribes other than the Yanjiao tribe.
However, why hadn't the Drumming tribe and the Pu tribe heard of the name "Yanjiao tribe"?
According to the records and words left behind by the ancestors, it could be seen that the ancestors were still very proud. They were also very proud of the former Flaming Horns tribe, which showed that the Flaming Horns tribe was not a small border group in the past.
Perhaps it was because too much time had passed that everything had changed?
After leaving Guang Hou's place, Shao Xuan parted ways with Qing Yi. Qing Yi needed to go 'shopping', and the chief and shamaness gave him a list of things he needed to buy.
See "Hou," Hou "," the Yong tribe tribe tribe's tribe, "the tribe, the tribe tribe tribe tribe," Yan "Yan Hou Hou's," "Hou"
Originally, Shao Xuan thought that the Pu tribe and the Drumming tribe's trade fair would be like a market, but now it seemed that it wasn't. They didn't place their items in one place. The Pu tribe people only placed their items outside their houses, so if they saw something placed outside their houses, it would be used for trade. If they liked it, they would go and buy it.
Here, there was no unified currency, they used equivalent exchange.
However, it couldn't be considered as an equivalent exchange.
Shao Xuan didn't walk far when he saw several people from the Drumming tribe who were buying without haggling. Then he looked at the people from the Pu tribe who were smiling. It was obvious that they had gained a lot from trading with the Drumming tribe.
No wonder the Pu tribe people were looking forward to the arrival of the Drumming tribe's trading team, no wonder they were so enthusiastic.
The Drumming tribe people looked very fierce, but in fact, they didn't have many other thoughts. In the eyes of the Pu tribe people, to put it bluntly, the Drumming tribe people were just stupid people with "money".
Before coming, Shao Xuan heard Fu Shi complain about why the Drumming tribe people weren't welcomed outside. Why were the Pu tribe people more welcomed by other tribes than them?
On one hand, the Drumming tribe people had bad tempers. On the other hand, it was because they weren't very smart and didn't know how to talk. They weren't as good as the Pu tribe people.
Of course, this also had to do with their faces. Every time the Drumming tribe people went out, they would be treated as people with bad intentions. Because they looked too fierce, especially when they looked at people, it was like a cold knife cutting through people. On the other hand, the Pu tribe people made people feel more amiable. Look at their smiles, how warm.
As he walked, Shao Xuan paid attention to the surrounding houses that displayed all kinds of items.
Pottery, stone cores, and all kinds of strange things from other tribes. The old people in the tribe treated the pottery as treasures. They could also be seen here, but the price was very high. What made Shao Xuan surprised was that he also saw a piece of linen.
"You like it? This is from the central region. I heard that the people in the central region love to use this kind of cloth to make clothes. "The man said proudly. He was wearing a short skirt made of linen, which he showed off in the tribe. Although many people didn't like this kind of thing, once they heard that it was from the central region, their attitude immediately changed.
Therefore, when this man said it, he didn't use too many words to embellish it. He only emphasized the words "from the central region", waiting for Shao Xuan to show a look of surprise, and then use a lot of water moonstones to exchange for it.
Unfortunately, he was disappointed. Shao Xuan only calmly asked about the "central region", and then gave him a small piece of water moonstone as a reward and left.
After Shao Xuan left, the man looked at the small piece of water moonstone in his hand. Although this piece was already a big profit, he was still not reconciled. Why didn't he keep him?
That was something he had painstakingly obtained from the central region. This kid didn't even show a look of surprise. Could it be that he hadn't seen it before? Or did he know that he didn't have the money to buy such an expensive thing?
Shao Xuan didn't know that in the eyes of the "shopkeeper" just now, he had already become a poor country bumpkin.
In Shao Xuan's eyes, that piece of linen was very coarse, and wouldn't be more comfortable to wear than animal skin. Using a large piece of water moonstone to buy such a coarse piece of cloth, was he stupid?
Not long after, that piece of linen was bought by Fu Shi, one of the "local tycoons" of the Drumming tribe this year. Shao Xuan didn't speak for a long time after seeing this. Sure enough, their values were different.
Perhaps, the two words "central region" was already the biggest golden signboard. Looking at Fu Shi's happy face, then looking at the envy of the other people of the Drumming tribe, Shao Xuan felt that he still hadn't fully adapted to the rhythm of this place.
What kind of place was the "central region"? Was it more developed than here? Was the Yanjiao tribe in the central region in the past?
It was said that the colored pottery came from there. Because it was fragile during the transportation process, the colored pottery transported here was very expensive. Among the nearby tribes that often came to the Pu tribe to participate in the trade, only the Drumming tribe bought the most of it.
Touching the water moonstone in the animal skin bag, this was really a good thing, comparable to gold. After staying in the Yanjiao tribe for so long, he had forgotten the benefits of "money".
The people of the Drumming tribe didn't know much about the "central region". They only knew that the things from the "central region" were very good, so every time they came, whenever they heard that something came from the "central region", they would immediately take out their animal skin bags to buy it, not even asking for a price.
In addition to these, the Pu tribe also had many local specialties, such as frogs.
Of course, this didn't mean that they would sell the frogs. For the Pu tribe who used frogs as totems, they wouldn't kill the frogs here. What they sold were things taken from the frogs, such as poison, medicine, and other special things.
Shao Xuan came to an oval-shaped house. This place was a bit remote, so not many people of the Drumming tribe came here to trade.
An old man sat cross-legged on the ground in front of the door. In front of him, there were no pottery, stone tools, or things from other tribes, only a few frogs with different shapes, sizes, colors, and patterns.
Next to him was a large basin of water. After a while, the old man reached out and scooped water from the basin, sprinkling it on the frogs in front of him.
When Shao Xuan came over, the old man had just finished sprinkling the water.
Seeing Shao Xuan come over, the old man's eyes lit up, "What do you want?"
"These are?" Shao Xuan pointed at the frogs lying motionless in front of the old man and asked.
"You're not from the Drumming tribe? Is this your first time in our tribe? " The old man didn't feel disappointed because Shao Xuan wasn't from the Drumming tribe. Instead, he smiled very happily, because once the people of the Drumming tribe bought something, they would first choose the same place as last time. This place was a bit remote, so the old man rarely met people from the Drumming tribe when trading. Instead, he was more interested in customers from other tribes.
"Yes, it's my first time in the Pu tribe." Shao Xuan said, his eyes staring at the frogs on the ground.
A few frogs, the small ones were only the size of a fingernail, and the big ones couldn't even be held by a palm.
The old man enthusiastically introduced the characteristics of these frogs to Shao Xuan, as well as the things they could contribute.
"This one's body can be used to save people. Dizziness, chest tightness, vomiting, body weakness and so on can be treated. And this one, its body can be used to firmly stick two planks together." As he said this, the old man made a "gu gu" sound, then held a thick leaf and waited.
Shao Xuan looked at the orange patterned frog. At this moment, its pupils shrank. Because it was horizontal, it looked like it was squinting, as if it was preparing something.
After waiting for a few seconds, nothing happened.
Shao Xuan looked at the old man, then at the frog on the ground. Was this frog constipated?
Just as he was thinking, Shao Xuan saw the orange patterned frog secreting some translucent liquid from its back. As the liquid increased, the old man quickly used the thick leaf in his hand to scrape the liquid off. The leaf wouldn't hurt the frog, so the Pu tribe often used this method to get the liquid.
"Look." The old man took out two wooden blocks, then smeared some of the liquid on the thick leaf. The wooden blocks closed, and after a while, the two wooden blocks were firmly stuck together.
This thing was simply the same as the glue that the Flaming Horns tribe found to be used to glue things together!
"How many of these do you have?" Shao Xuan asked.
"As many as you want!" The old man was so excited that his hands were shaking.
"What are the others?" Shao Xuan let the old man continue to introduce them. He was very interested in these things.
The old man was also in high spirits as he explained to Shao Xuan one by one. There were all kinds of strange frog secretions. There was also a frog that secreted oil on its skin, which was preferred by some people in arid areas.
These frogs, for the Pu tribe, were simply a tool to make money.
Because the old man had some stock at home, Shao Xuan took out the water moonstones, and according to the old man's price, selectively bought some.
"Right, do you sell frog poison here?" Shao Xuan asked.
"You want?" The old man carefully looked around, then said to Shao Xuan: "Of course, follow me."
