Chapter 522: Stones for Salt



Since Bai Xuemei became pregnant with Han Cheng's child, she has become a little lazy and sleeps very well at night.

After Han Cheng lay down again, he leaned towards Han Cheng, held one of Han Cheng's arms in his arms, and fell asleep again in a short while.

Seeing that Bai Xuemei had fallen asleep, Han Cheng reached out his hand again and gently patted his forehead.

The tribe has not found any metal mines yet, which is not a loss at all. I actually forgot the role of the caravan in this regard!

When trading with other tribes, they only wanted the furs, but never linked the matter of ore to it.

Why didn't I think of exchanging salt and pottery for minerals with other tribes?

It doesn’t matter if those tribes don’t know what the minerals are, just let them exchange them for stones.

After the caravan brings back the stones they exchanged, they can check to see if there are any ores inside them...

This sudden thought instantly broke the confusion in Han Cheng's heart.

Using a caravan to do this is much better than taking people out to look for it directly.

Not only can it minimize the danger, but it is also more efficient than taking people out to search.

After all, judging from the transactions that Mao had made with other tribes in recent years, there were still quite a few scattered tribes in this land. After mobilizing these tribes, the efficiency would naturally be higher than if he directly took people out to search.

Moreover, the people in those tribes are much more familiar with the environment around the tribe than they, the strangers, and can discover more things.

At the same time, these tribes are distributed relatively widely, and with multiple blooms, the possibility of obtaining a harvest will be greater.

As for the contribution of the Qingque tribe, it was nothing more than pottery and salt, which had already become extremely common in their tribe.

The manpower saved alone was more than enough to make the pottery and salt that were exchanged.

Moreover, this method can be used to solve not only metal mines, but also new types of crops and large livestock.

It’s just that when conducting transactions, various seeds and wild animal cubs are added.

It can be predicted that after this trading method is proposed, those tribes that have traded with them will be very happy.

Because with the continuous plundering in recent years, the surrounding small tribes have little fur stored.

Moreover, furs are not completely useless to each tribe. At least the remaining furs can be traded only when the tribesmen have something to wear.

In such a situation, how could they not be happy when they suddenly learned that in addition to furs, they could also use commonly available stones and seeds to exchange for precious pottery and salt?

As for the beast cubs, there is not much meat on them, so there is not much pressure to exchange them.

Of course, in order to avoid having a lot of useless stones and other things in the tribe, regulations must be set on the exchange.

That means things have been exchanged and cannot be repeated.

There are only a few common stones. After exchanging them all, you have to rack your brains to find those stones that have not been traded.

Seeds and beast cubs are similar.

"Ha ha……"

Although it was embarrassing for him to remember these things only now as a person from later generations, Han Cheng couldn't help laughing out loud after regretting for a while.

Who brought him to such an era?

Although it was a little late to realize it, it was still very avant-garde for the people in the tribe.

Han Cheng could imagine the reactions of Wu and others after he told this matter.

Well, after living in primitive society for a period of time, this guy began to become shameless and disrespectful.

He pondered over it for a while, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was a feasible idea. He was so excited that he tossed and turned in bed for a long time before he finally fell asleep.

The strong ox pulled the plow in the field, raising waves of mud behind it.

The sound of leather whips tied with red tassels exploded in the air, mixing with the shouts of farmers and the cries of oxen, echoing across the plains.

The golden millet and the blood-red sorghum hung their heads together.

The rice in the paddy fields is also not to be outdone, emitting a fragrant scent.

In the bean field under the sun, crisp burning sounds can be heard from time to time, and round beans roll out of the pods...

The lucky general who looks more and more like a dog, whining with more descendants.

In the distance, there were men riding war horses galloping towards us, holding bronze spears and carrying longbows.

A blood-stained human head hung under the horse's neck, and a large flag with a black background and a red edge embroidered with a green sparrow rustled in the wind.

But...when did Wu become so strong and healthy?

A big city with a plaque with a green bird hanging on it stood there like a hill. It was surrounded by a moat with green-feathered ducks and red-headed geese swimming in the river.

In the distance, there was a fleet anchored, and people were busy coming and going, moving baskets of goods back and forth...

When I woke up in the morning, my mind was confused and a mess.

Lying on the kang and looking at the ceiling, recalling the complicated events of last night of which not many fragments were left, and then looking at the pregnant woman lying next to him, Han Cheng was quickly brought back to reality.

A dream is just a dream after all. I don’t know how far I still have to go if I want the scenes in the dream to appear.

But, never mind!

Just live comfortably and take good care of the people around you.

As for how far you can develop, you don't need to pursue it too deliberately.

The most important thing is to do what needs to be done first and take one step at a time.

After lying on Bai Xue's belly and listening for a while, Han Cheng got up.

After washing with warm water and being chilled by the still cool air, I immediately felt much more energetic.

I twisted my hips and shook my waist, and swallowed a salted egg with two bowls of golden and sticky millet porridge. My stomach felt warm and comfortable.

Mao carried a bone shovel and walked out with the others who had finished breakfast.

After a few months, he has gradually adapted to and started to like this kind of life.

But before he could walk out of the yard, he was stopped.

Looking back, it was the noble and wise Son of God.

Mao did not dare to be negligent and hurried back, not knowing what the Son of God wanted to see him about.

But looking at the smiling face of the Son of God, it shouldn't be a bad thing.

Han Cheng took Mao to one side, and told him with a smile that he should continue to take people out to conduct transactions.

Mao, who understood Han Cheng's meaning, was stunned for a moment. He did not expect that the Son of God called him over for this matter.
