Chapter 104: Amu, can't be released (please vote)
"I am the leader of the You tribe, Fu, I have been to your tribe before, but I was still young at that time, so you don't remember me. The leaders of our You tribe have to learn many tribal languages, because we often trade with foreign tribes." You Fu explained.
You Fu was not bragging about this. He did know the languages of many tribes. Although each tribe has its own dialect, these dialects are actually more like dialects of a language. Humans living in close areas have evolved similar languages.
For example, "mother", other names in the world are similar, Amu, Ama, mother, Mum, mom, Mother, Oum (Ni), these names are actually pronounced similarly.
The You tribe is very good at this. They are good at distinguishing the similar parts of these dialects. In addition, they have been wandering around and have come into contact with many foreign tribes. They are very good at languages. Those who can become leaders know the most languages.
Shang thought for a while. A You tribe had come here two years ago. So she confirmed Fu's identity, but she was still a little confused about Luo Chong's identity. So she continued to ask, "What about him? Is he also from your You tribe? Why do you say he is also a leader?"
"He is not from our You tribe. He is the leader of the Han tribe. There are many people in their tribe, not less than yours, and they have weapons that are more powerful than spears. You'd better not leave him behind, otherwise your tribe will be finished. People from our two tribes will definitely come to find us."
You Fu looked at the number of people in the surrounding tribes, first told Shang about Luo Chong's identity, and finally warned Xiaodie.
Shang heard that Luo Chong's tribe had so many people, and she wanted to let Luo Chong go. If two tribes with similar numbers fought, it would be very likely that both sides would suffer losses. This was not what Shang wanted to see. And from what You Fu said, the Han tribe seemed to be very powerful.
But when Xiaodie heard that Luo Chong could not be left behind, she immediately refused.
"There are many people in our tribe, we are not afraid. What other weapon can he have that is more powerful than a spear? What about that short spear? Look, it can't be thrown far. You lied to me. I want to keep him."
Xiaodie thought that the powerful weapons Fu was talking about were Luo Chong's arrows. In fact, this understanding was not wrong, but she didn't know how to use arrows, so she threw the arrows like spears. Of course, they couldn't be thrown far.
Youfu looked at Xiaodie's unruly look, just sneered and didn't say anything, and didn't tell her what that thing was. In fact, Youfu himself didn't know very well. At the beginning, he only saw Luo Chong shoot the arrow at his feet, and the arrow was shot with a bow, but he didn't know the specific method.
Luo Chong looked at Xiaodie's actions, and his heart and liver hurt. He didn't know what Youfu said to her, and the girl threw her arrows in a rage.
Xiaodie looked at Youfu's disdainful sneer, and she was even angrier than Luo Chong.
"You lied, you lied, I want to keep him."
Shang did not act like Xiaodie, and she was very rational. Although she did not recognize the bow and arrow, she could tell from the copper spear that it was powerful. The copper spear was very sharp. Good weapons meant that there would be no shortage of food. If there was no shortage of food, there would definitely be a large population. In addition, the copper crown on Luo Chong's head made Shang very sure that Luo Chong was the leader of a large tribe.
Shang pulled Xiaodie, who was angry, and continued to ask You Fu: "Since you two are leaders, why did you come to steal our hemp grass?"
"It's not what I want. He wants this hemp grass, but there is no hemp grass near their tribe, so he asked me to help them find it. He said that if I find it, he will give me a horned beast, but I only know that there is one here, and I don't know that it is yours, so I brought him here." You Fu continued.
"Oh, what do you want the hemp grass for? To make this thing?" Shang asked Luo Chong while holding the hemp grass, and pointed at the longbow bowstring in Xiaodie's hand.
"No, I want to plant." Luo Chong shook his head, first pointing to the ground, then to the hemp field in the distance.
"Oh? You can plant too? Then what do you plant these hemp grass for?" Shang suddenly became interested. She didn't expect that other tribes would also plant hemp grass.
"Don't ask anymore. Let us go. If we don't go back by sunset today, the tribesmen from our two tribes will come looking for us tomorrow." You Fu urged Shang to let them go.
Xiaodie was about to get angry again after hearing this, but Shang pulled her back. "I can let you go, but you destroyed the hemp grass of our tribe. We will have much less this year. How are you going to compensate us?"
"Compensation? What compensation? What compensation do you want?" You Fu asked in surprise. He really hadn't thought about the issue of compensation.
"Am, we can't let them go. I want to keep him as a man." Xiaodie got angry as soon as she heard that Shang was going to let him go.
"Die, we can't keep him. He is the leader of another tribe. We can't keep a leader." Shang advised Xiaodie.
"Hey, what compensation do you want? Tell us quickly, and let us go after you give it to us." You Fu urged impatiently. He now regretted bringing Luo Chong here. He didn't know whether Luo Chong would still give him pottery and horned beasts when he returned this time.
"We want to keep these weapons and the horned beasts." Shang thought for a moment, pointed at Luo Chong's bow and arrows, golden spear, and the horned beasts and said.
"Impossible, that's not mine, he won't give it to you, we won't agree." You Fu said without even thinking about it. Just kidding, he still wants these things, the key is whether Luo Chong will give them to him.
Luo Chong looked at Shang pointing at his weapons and horned deer, and asked You Fu in confusion: "What are you talking about? What does she want to do?"
You Fu explained: "She said we destroyed their hemp grass, and she wants to keep the weapons and horned deer as compensation."
"What the hell? How can we destroy her hemp grass? I just cut it directly, and I didn't pull it out by the roots. You still want to keep my things? Impossible."
Luo Chong was very angry when he heard it. It's just a few grasses. Even if it's compensation, it's impossible to use so many things. He felt that the other party was blackmailing and trying to scam him, but Luo Chong suddenly felt something was wrong, so he continued to ask.
"She just said that we destroyed their hemp fields? Do they only harvest hemp once a year? Go ask her." Luo Chong expressed his doubts.
You Fu didn't know what Luo Chong meant, so he could only help Luo Chong translate, "The Han leader said that we didn't destroy your hemp, and he also asked if you harvest hemp once a year."
Shang was also stunned when she heard this question. Isn't ramie harvested once a year?
Luo Chong didn't even need to wait for her answer. Just by looking at Shang's expression, he knew that they didn't understand the growth habits of ramie at all, so he said with confidence.
"Fu, tell them that I won't give them weapons and horned deer, and I will continue to harvest hemp. I can tell them how to harvest hemp five times a year in exchange."
"Is that all?"
"Listen to me, just say it."
So You Fu repeated Luo Chong's words, and the people in the surrounding tribes were immediately shocked. Hemp can be harvested five times a year? Isn't that a five-fold increase? This method is really worth money.
You should know that the Bian tribe grows these ramie grasses not only for their own use, they also use the woven linen and hemp ropes to trade with other tribes, sometimes in exchange for food, sometimes in exchange for people.
In fact, there are very few matriarchal tribes nearby, and most tribes are unwilling to send their boys to such a matriarchal tribe. Therefore, the Bian tribe sometimes pays some price and exchanges boys with the linen fabrics they produce.
Therefore, the output of hemp grass can be said to determine the development of the Bian tribe, but if it can really be picked five times a year as Luo Chong said, then the Bian tribe will not lack hemp grass at all, so Luo Chong's method of picking five times is very tempting to them.
"Put them down." Shang waved her hand and said to her tribesmen.
"Am, can't put them down"
