The next day, Meng Sheng went to the smelting place to instruct the natives to make containers. The most important thing is to make all kinds of pots. The stone pots are heavy and slow to conduct heat. Recently, some natives complained to the chief that the stone pots were burnt out, hoping to get help from the males. , Rebuild the stone pot.
It takes time and effort to do this. Now that there is a large mine, the first thing to do is to improve the pot.
He sprinkled some fine sand on the flat ground, drew a few pots and utensils commonly used in modern times, and asked the natives to build them accordingly.
Pots are similar to knives and weapons. Now that the indigenous people have mastered the most basic smelting technology, and are still innovating from time to time, it is not difficult to make pots.
In the past, they didn’t have enough copper mines, so they didn’t dare to do it. Now that they have enough ore, he told them to let them play as they please, and communicate with the natives in the tribe when they have nothing to do, and borrow money from everyone. See what is missing, and try to do it.
The natives were full of enthusiasm, and the atmosphere in the smelting field seemed to have returned to the time when they were just smelting. Several seasoned chefs gathered around Meng Sheng, discussing the pots and utensils to be made, as well as steaming and frying, and some even suggested tools for making stir-fry dishes.
Meng Sheng felt that the indigenous people's thinking was getting more and more avant-garde, and even thought of a spatula, but Meng Sheng thought that there was no need to specially smelt the spatula, and it was the same to make a spatula out of wood.
When it comes to wood, he couldn't help but have an idea, why not find a few skilled natives in the tribe and let them practice carpentry work seriously. When the time comes, the tribe will have pots and utensils.
As far as the current situation is concerned, except for his cave where chopsticks, knives and forks are used, the rest of the caves still eat with their hands, and everyone must learn to use tableware, so that eating can not only give everyone a sense of life, but the most important thing is to be clean and hygienic Many, can prevent the probability of getting sick to a certain extent.
"I do know that there are a few dexterous ones in the tribe. When I taught them how to weave baskets, they were the first to learn it, and later weaved many new patterns."
A clear voice sounded, and a few natives squatting around the sand raised their heads subconsciously, and saw the necks of the standing people first. This summer, the trees around the tribe were cut down, and Qiu Juan went out hunting every day to get tanned. A lot, but the skin is cold and fair, even if it is exposed to the sun, it is much whiter than most people in the tribe.
The slender neck couldn't be hidden in the collar, and there was a red mark on the slightly protruding Adam's apple, which was especially conspicuous under the white skin.
The squatting aborigines are all elderly males, it is impossible not to understand how the seals came from, but their faces are still a little bit embarrassing. It seems that the priest and his partner are not only good in front of them, but also good in their queens.
Meng Sheng was squatting on Qiu Juan's back. He saw that the natives were silent, but his expression changed. He was wondering what was going on. When he turned his head and saw his achievements last night, he immediately stood up, blocked Qiu Juan and held his hand. Putting it on my partner, it feels like I want to hide him in my arms.
That's why Qiu Juan didn't know why, and why the male went crazy.
"Just make these pots first, and let me know if you have any questions. I'll find someone to make pots first."
The males nod their heads.
Qiu Juan was led forward by the male, and if it wasn't for his long legs, he would hardly have been able to keep up with the male's pace. He was full of doubts, and asked the people around him innocently and earnestly: "Did I interrupt your discussion?" What? It was over as soon as I came.
"No, I'm just anxious to find someone to make tools for eating." Meng Sheng put Ya Nu on his arms, and gently brushed his hand over his Adam's apple.
Qiu Juan felt that there might be something on his neck. He lowered his head and couldn't see his neck, but he could see the red mark on the edge of the bone opening, as if bitten by a mosquito.
He suddenly remembered what happened last night. Meng Sheng pressed him, kissed and gnawed, not to mention his face and mouth, even his neck and body. Meng Sheng used to make big moves, but he still restrained himself. The reason why he took the initiative was that the male clung to him like a ferocious beast and tossed him for most of the night.
When he woke up, his back was sore and uncomfortable, but he thought that Xiongxiong was very happy at night. If he could have a child in this way, he thought it would be worth it. It's just... He didn't expect that there would be some situations that had never happened before.
Thinking of the way those old males looked at him just now, he quickly covered his neck, his ears blushed, and he gave Meng Sheng a stare, with the words "blame you" written in his pale eyes.
"It's okay, it's okay." Meng Sheng coaxed.
It's all like this, how can I still have the nerve to wander around in the tribe: "I won't go, you go by yourself."
"How can I find someone if you don't go?"
After Qiu Juan said the names of a few people, he left the male and headed towards the cave by himself.
Meng Sheng stood at the fork in the road, and he let out a breath, saying that he was not angry, but it was a lie, but because of Qiu Juan's behavior, it made him go through everything that happened last night, and he couldn't help it when he thought about it... ... .Laughed.
"Priest, you are here! It's easy for me to find!" The natives in the tribe ran over anxiously: "A lot of people from the Chubo tribe came, including their chiefs, and said they wanted to exchange items with our tribe. Chief Zhongyang and the other two deputy chiefs are waiting for you!"
Meng Sheng concentrated, not like the excitement of the natives, but said as expected: "Here we come."
Time is faster than he imagined.
At the food distribution field outside Zhongyang Cave, quite a few indigenous people have already gathered. Except for Meng Sheng, the rest of the people don’t know that there will be so many people from the Qiubo Tribe. They were all young men and women, and they brought a lot of salt and a lot of food from the tribe.
"Priest, you can count it over."
Meng Sheng glanced at the foreign men and women in the middle of the food distribution area, and seeing that the stone table was empty, he frowned: "I don't want to prepare some berry food yet."
"Already preparing."
"Go and call for a few more skilled and fast ones. Use the food in our collective cave to entertain. Prepare more. It's a trivial matter whether you eat or not. It must be rich. The chiefs of the Chubo tribe are here. Don't let the tribe Read the joke."
The natives received the arrangement and hurried to do things.
Meng Sheng put a smile on his face and went inside.
"Meng Sheng!" Hai stood up from the crowd of the tribe, and quickly waved to him: "I didn't make a mistake, I brought people from the tribe outside as guests!"
"You're here, otherwise I'm going to visit your tribe as a guest." Meng Sheng was very enthusiastic and eloquent. In a few words, the two tribes who were unfamiliar with each other were like family.
The Yilin Tribe had never established such diplomatic relations with other tribes. The guests were caught off guard for a while, and the Chubo Tribe did not seem to be guests of other tribes. Before Meng Sheng came, the atmosphere was a little stiff.
Taking advantage of the warm atmosphere, Hai introduced Zhan, the leader of their tribe. Meng Sheng had noticed this tall young man when he came. different.
"The chief of the Chubo tribe is quite young." Zhong Yang said suddenly.
"I just inherited tribal leadership from my father."
"That's a coincidence, we just took office not long ago." Several people talked about this matter for a while, after all, they were all young people, and the conversation made everyone a lot more familiar.
Soon the tribe brought up the prepared delicacies, and Zhong Yang talked more than before. It was much easier to greet the people of the Qiubo tribe to eat and drink than to talk about exchanging items.
The chief was so enthusiastic that the Chubo tribe began to taste the delicacies of the tribe in the forest. When Hai returned from the Yilin tribe, he passed on the delicacies here. This time he brought salt as a guest, and the people in the tribe They all scrambled to come over.
After the meal, Zhan asked the people of the tribe to bring over three large baskets of salt and a large basket of seafood, and said sincerely: "These salts are the best salt in the tribe, as well as some food of the tribe. Thank you for the hospitality of the Yilin tribe. Please also accept it."
It means to give it away, and Zhong Yang could hear the meaning, receiving other people's things for nothing still represents a tribe, he looked at Meng Sheng, the male nodded slightly, and Zhong Yang readily accepted it.
Seeing that they didn't wander around, and didn't mean to look down on them, Zhan always smiled a little more on his calm face: "The Yilin tribe is just like what Hai said, the priests and chiefs are very hospitable. It seems that this trip we It didn't go in vain."
Since the last trade fair, the Yilin tribe has become famous, and their items are precious and rare, and they are popular among all tribes. When they learned that the people of their own tribe knew the priests of the Yilin tribe well, and were invited to be guests, they brought them with them when they came back. When returning a lot of items, Zhan was very excited about this honor, but at the same time lamented that the Chubo tribe has a total of more than one hundred people. How can a very small tribe have the ability to make friends with a large tribe.
But using exquisite metal weapons, he couldn't help but want to try it out, especially when Hai described to him many times how hospitable the Yilin tribe was, so he summoned capable people in the tribe to discuss this matter. After discussing for a day, the final conclusion is to start.
When they arrived at the Yilin tribe, they first met two deputy chiefs. One had a bad temper, and the other didn't pay much attention to them. The tribe members who had traveled through mountains and rivers were very disappointed. He and Hai comforted each other. Everyone is here, and they have to meet the chief. They thought things would be very difficult, but the bad-tempered deputy chief finally brought them to the food distribution field.
Fortunately, they had to bite the bullet and followed, otherwise they would not have seen the chief and the priest. As Hai said, the two were very enthusiastic, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
"Come here, what are you doing with so many things, Chief Zhan is too polite."
Afterwards, Zhan explained the purpose of coming, and Zhong Yang and Meng Sheng took everyone to exchange items. Meng Sheng knew that they would come, so he asked the indigenous people in the tribe to make a batch of weapons in advance.
When exchanging items with the Chubo tribe, Meng Sheng didn't exchange them for goods at the value in the trading field. About five catties of salt can be exchanged for a weapon, which is more than half lower than in the trading field.
Zhan couldn't believe it, and asked Meng Sheng several times if he really wanted to change it like this, and after getting an affirmative answer, he was still worried and went to ask Zhong Yang.
"The meaning of the priest is what I mean." Zhong Yang cooperated with Meng Sheng very much, and he generously gave away so many things to a small tribe of others. He felt that it should not be exchanged for salt from others at a high price, let alone them. The current tools of the tribe are fully enough for the people of the tribe. Meng Sheng told him before that he should be courteous, and the people from the Qiubo tribe came to make him understand the meaning of these four words.
"Leader Zhan doesn't have to doubt it. In fact, we have conditions for exchanging such a low price."
After Meng Sheng said this, Zhan heaved a sigh of relief: "Priest, please tell me."
