Chapter 66: Rewarding according to merit (please add to collection and recommend)

Luo Chong prepared a lot of "death gift packages" and went to deliver them to the wolves.

At noon that day, he first rode Huishan to the edge of the forest and threw some animal offal, such as cow hooves, horse antelope hooves, lungs, and some remains of terror birds. These "chicken ribs that are not meaty to eat, but a pity to throw away" were used to paralyze the wolves' defense.

When it was dusk, the next feeding was the real "death gift package", thorn vines wrapped in ice shells and lard, which filled several large baskets and were scattered all over the edge of the western forest to ensure that most of the gray wolves could be caught. After

doing all this, Luo Chong asked the tribesmen standing guard on the wall to keep an eye on the movement at the edge of the forest, and then went back to the cave.

Spring is coming, and the Han tribe still has a lot to do. The most important thing at the moment is spring plowing and salt mining. Previously, the Han tribe had only 16 blue antelopes, but only Wu Da and Ximen could be used to plow the land. The others were either too small or pregnant female antelopes.

And because the antelopes were weak, the plows designed and made by Luo Chong at that time were all single-headed and relatively small. Now that the livestock pulling the plow has become bison, the output power is different, so the plow must also be changed. A wooden frame mechanism with two plow heads is gradually taking shape in Luo Chong's mind.

Just as Luo Chong was studying the new bronze plow, Shu Da, who wanted to be a middleman to make a profit and benefit from both sides, also began his business journey.

The Li tribe is a tribe with a population of more than 230. There is a large chestnut forest in their tribal territory. Although these chestnuts cannot be used as staple food for the entire tribe, they are also a relatively stable source of food, so that they will not starve when hunting results are scarce, and their lives are still acceptable.

The residence of the Li tribe is just to the south of the Black Rat tribe, and the two sides can walk a day's distance apart. This distance is also the distance between most primitive tribes.

In the era when there were no means of transportation and people could only go out on foot, the distance that humans could control was only half a day's walk, because they had to return to their residence before sunset. There were still many wild beasts at this time, and the night was still very dangerous for humans.

Shu Da took ten adult men and spent a day to the Li tribe. When they arrived at the place, it was already evening, just in time for the Li tribe to prepare dinner.

The leaders of the Li tribe, Mao Li and Li Wu, were puzzled by Shu Da's visit and were a little angry.

After all, you are also the leader of a tribe, don't you know what time it is now?

Winter has passed for three months. All tribes have reached the most difficult time. There is little food left. It is difficult to maintain the needs of their own tribes. You actually come to visit us. Do you want to eat for free? No way. There is no window.

Rat Da saw that the other party's expression was not friendly. He also knew that they did not welcome him. He laughed and told Mao Li that he was not here for free meals. They brought their own food. Mao Li's expression relaxed a little and led Rat Da and his party to the residence.

The residence of the Li tribe is composed of more than a dozen semi-underground earthen houses, which are similar to the brick kilns of the Han tribe. Half of them are underground. The surface part is first built with branches to form a hemispherical dome, and then covered with thick mud. There is a smoking hole on the top. As soon as

Rat Da came in, he stared at the fire pit in the middle. The tribesmen of the Li tribe were roasting chestnuts and dried meat on the stone slabs. Seeing this, Rat Da had a bottom line in his heart. He turned around and prepared to recommend the clay pot to Mao Li, but what caught his eye was Mao Li's gloomy face.

MMP, you said you weren't here to eat for free, but when you came in you came in to see what other people were cooking. What do you mean?

Facing Mao Li's dark face, Shu Da was not angry. He quickly asked his younger brother to take out the clay pot and dried meat, and also gathered around the fire to cook dinner.

Mao Li saw that Shu Da really brought his own food and exquisite pottery, and his expression eased up. He also focused his attention on the clay pot, especially the cooking method of heating meat and water together.

Seeing that he was interested, Shu Da took the opportunity to introduce him to the various benefits of the clay pot. Boiling meat into broth can not only drive away the cold, but also save food. There was also the excuse that Luo Chong had said before, that eating cooked food is not easy to get sick. Anyway, he said everything he could think of.

Mao Li didn't listen to anything else, but he was very satisfied with the advantage of saving food. What he lacked most now was food to survive this winter. As for other things, they were not important now.

But he couldn't accept the offer from Shu Da, because Shu Da only brought a pottery pot, and without a water tank and a pottery bowl for comparison, he couldn't directly show the size and value of the pottery pot. Finally, after bargaining, the price of one pottery pot for three boys or one woman plus one boy was sold.

But the biggest purpose of Shu Da's transaction was to increase the fighting power of his tribe, so he only wanted boys and not women. These boys aged ten to eleven were not young anymore. They would be adults in a year or two. If they had no hunting experience, they could fight with weapons now. After all,

according to the calculation of 14 months a year here, their actual size is equivalent to junior high school students on Earth.

Mao Li was dissatisfied with this. Even if his tribe had more than 230 people, it was a bit too much to trade so many middle forces at one time. The two sides agreed that this would be the only time. Next time there was such a transaction, boys would never be the only ones. Shu Da also quickly agreed.

The next morning, Shu Da left 5 pottery pots, took 10 brothers and the 15 boys he traded with back to the Black Rat Tribe. The winter was getting shorter and shorter, and the transaction with the Han Tribe had to be carried out quickly.

On the Han tribe side, every tribe member's face was full of smiles, because their leader was rewarding them for their merits

in this tribal defense battle. Every tribe member performed very bravely, and the reward promised by Luo Chong before was also going to be taken out.

Wolf skins are owned by every adult, and there is no shortage of them anyway. Copper ornaments are not a problem. Although there is not much copper on hand, Luo Chong is not stingy.

In the matter of decorating the headband, Luo Chong is not only not impatient, but on the contrary, he is willing to support it. Luo Chong attaches great importance to this "small matter" of tying hair.

The Han tribe started too small, with only more than 50 people at the beginning. Now the largest proportion is foreign population. This is a very dangerous thing, and Luo Chong relies on unified hairstyles to unite these people.

When all people do one thing at the same time, then these people will subconsciously regard the "same kind" around them as their own people. This is a very wonderful psychological phenomenon.

For example, in the army, the soldiers come from all over the world and don't know each other, but when they wear uniform military uniforms and hold the same weapons, they will naturally unite into a collective.

Just like when Luo Chong just joined the army in his previous life, a group of new recruits in new uniforms stood together.

Comrade: "This uniform is beautiful, look at these pants, huh? These military boots, huh? This hat, I will be the most powerful person in the future."

Luo Chong: "Hehehe, this hat is green"

Comrade: "What are you talking about."

Luo Chong: "Oh, I said I am also the most powerful person, we are soldiers, what's the difference."

In fact, everyone just wore the same clothes, but the psychological changes are so wonderful, just like this scene in the Han tribe now.

Dali pointed to the copper button on his head and said to Mutun: "See, I am the strongest man in the Han tribe. This time I killed five wolves, and the chief gave me the largest copper button." Mutun

also pointed to the copper button on his head, "I also tied my hair now, I am also a member of the Han tribe, and I also contributed to the defense of the tribe this time."

In order to form cohesion in the tribe with complex members, Luo Chong also spared no effort to create common points for the tribe members, so as to maintain his ruling position and prevent the tribe from falling apart.
