The place Shao Xuan fancy is also at the confluence of two rivers, which is convenient for boats to travel.
Those who did not travel far, did not take turns, and did not go hunting were transferred to the land set by Shao Xuan and started construction.
In the minds of tribal people, the first task of enclosure is to enclose their own place and let outsiders know that this piece of land belongs to them.
Therefore, in the past few days, every day, I saw some flaming horn warriors use thick and tough rattan ropes, tied a pile of stones of different sizes and carried them on their shoulders or backs, and went to the ground in the new circle. transport.
The digging stones are all on the nearby mountains. The surrounding mountains are not big, but they are still common. They still do not belong to any tribe. From time to time, they can see some vigilant outsiders hiding in the bushes. They stare at each other. The flaming man.
Those people from the outside world did not dare to take action against people from Yanjiao. Anyone who saw people who could easily laugh while carrying so many stones would be terrified first, not to mention that the people from Yanjiao were not the same every time they saw them. One or two, be more careful.
There must be people who are curious. Those small tribes who live in unknown corners may be very inconspicuous, but they must have their own abilities and their own living methods, otherwise they will not be able to survive. Shao Xuan would not ignore or underestimate those tribes.
After learning that there were some people from unknown tribes watching in the dark nearby, Shao Xuan asked people to prepare some wooden plaques, and then used pigments ground from plants to write on the wooden plaques.
The words written on the wooden sign tell the tribal people who came out for food nearby three things: First, we want this place from Yanjiao; second, we plan to build this place into a trading area called Yanhe Trading. District, the trading area will be opened once before the official arrival of winter. Which tribe wants to trade, you can come and have a look. Third, we have a large number of high-quality animal skins in Yanjiao, and there are beasts and beasts.
After thinking about it, Shao Xuan added another sentence at the end: "Fair trade, no bullying."
After writing it, Shao Xuan handed the wooden sign to the soldier carrying the stone, "I found a place to insert it on the road."
The soldiers who transported the stones looked at them and understood what Shao Xuan meant. Without further ado, they picked up the planks and left quickly. They also had to transport the stones.
Yanjiao has a lot of energy and is very efficient in transporting stones. Shao Xuan has only circled this place for two days, and the surrounding wall has already been built halfway. Shao Xuan said that this place will be open before winter, not nonsense, but calculated of.
Shao Xuan also asked people to send messages to the Yu tribe, the Yu tribe, the Pu tribe, and the tribes along the Yanhe area that were known at this stage, telling them about the Yanhe trading area.
The rain tribe has already started to sharpen their knives, and they are ready to start trading. They are already stocking up and planning to exchange something with Yanjiao before winter. The people of the Rain Tribe may not like what they like. If they only trade with the Yanjiao people, they may not be able to exchange what they need. Now, the appearance of the Yanhe trading area may give them more choices. Busy enough.
Some idle craftsmen in the tribe also came to help after the shipbuilding was over. Lao Ke also came over. He has limited mobility, but he is good at grinding stone tools and wood tools. He can help if he builds houses. If Caesar was there, he would carry Lao Ke and ride a boat across the Yan River with the other warriors, and then go back when he was done. If Caesar went hunting, Cha Cha would bring Lao Ke over, and he didn't even need to sit on the boat.
The craftsmen of Yanjiao did not rest after building the ship, and they took the initiative to ask for help. They like to create. What's more, the Yanhe trading area is a good thing for Yanjiao, and they are happy to be so busy.
The long-distance team had already left. Before the team left, Shao Xuan had already determined the location of the Yanhe trading area. Therefore, before the team left, he had told the long-distance traveler that if he went to the inland In the trading area, tell the people there that the best animal skins are in the Yanhe trading area.
Is this wrong? That's right, absolutely right!
The flaming horns dared to shout out such a sentence, "We have the best animal skins!" What he said was also true.
At the same time, Shao Xuan also asked the warriors who traveled far to tell those outside the inland trading team that the animal skins were more expensive in winter. When the time comes, go to the Yanhe trading area to exchange.
In the past two winters, the climate was abnormal, and animal skins were naturally not needed, but now that the cataclysm of heaven and earth has passed, the climate will return to its original state, and there may be other changes, but the situation of the past two years will never be repeated immediately.
In many places on the mainland, it will definitely snow in winter, and it may even be colder. Otherwise, the migrating birds will not only fly here, not other places. The demand for animal skins will definitely increase sharply this year, and the disaster in the past caused heavy losses to many tribes, and they may not be able to get enough animal skins to keep warm. hides
There are also people who use animal hair, feathers, straw and other things as fillers, and make simple jackets with linen, but when it comes to keeping warm, there is absolutely no convenient and strong fur, especially the fur of fierce beasts, which is very popular among many people. like.
The animal skins brought out by the expedition team will definitely be sold out, but as for the people there, it is uncertain whether they will come to the Yanhe trading area to exchange the animal skins.
Shao Xuan did not intend to immediately make the Yanhe trading area known to everyone. This is not something that can be accomplished in a short time, and requires a longer process. Perhaps, taking out the new copperware will attract more attention. , but at this stage, it is not wise to take it out. Yanjiao is in short supply internally, how can it be traded
However, the appearance of this trading area will definitely attract more tribesmen from the upper and lower reaches of the Yan River, so that Shao Xuan can get more information about the upper and lower reaches of the Yan River without taking a boat by himself.
Only when there are people can there be communication, and when there is communication, there is information flow. What Yanjiao does is to provide a place for communication.
Of course, there will definitely be some people with bad intentions who want to snatch or steal. For such people, Yanjiao has always had only one attitude: kill!
Even a tribe with a friendly temperament will not show mercy to those who steal and snatch their belongings.
Shao Xuan compared the picture drawn on the animal skin scroll, and explained it to the craftsmen who built it. After making sure that they understood it, they went to the next place.
The team that transported the stones had already left the trading area with the wooden planks written by Shao Xuan to go to the place where the mountains were cut.
They were walking among the woods, carrying stones back and forth for the past two days. They had already walked out of a path. The trees on the path had been cut down, the obstacles on the road had been removed, and the grass on the ground had been trampled into grass mud.
"Just plug it in here." Lang Ga pushed the wooden board he was carrying to the side of the trail, quickly glanced at the woods not far away, and then left with the others.
Not long after they left, several figures approached cautiously. They were disheveled and only covered in some random weaving vines. After taking two steps, they stopped to listen and made sure that there was no one else around before continuing to approach.
They came to the wooden board that was inserted here just now, and the man at the head frowned and looked at the writing on the wooden board, his face was bitter, and it seemed that it was quite difficult for him to recognize the writing on the wooden board.
While there are indeed common scripts and languages on this continent, not every tribe has a high literacy rate.
The person at the head finally recognized the words on the wooden board, and then murmured and talked to the people behind him. Several people formed a circle. When they got together to discuss, there was another person standing on the periphery and carefully watching the surrounding.
After the negotiation was over, the man at the head walked to the board, held the board and gritted his teeth and pulled the board up.
After pulling it out, a few people ran away with their feet as if there were beasts chasing them.
So, when Lang Ga came over with the stone on his back, he saw only a pit where he put the wooden sign.
