"Fish!" said the leader of the Radish tribe, gesturing.
"Fish is also okay?" Ma Yue thought about it. There were no metal tools here, so fishing was indeed very troublesome.
Fish of that size have almost no natural enemies in the rivers, and their reproductive capacity is astonishing. Can fishing eat up all these big fish? That's impossible. They won't become extinct unless humans eat them for several generations.
As long as it’s edible, who cares whether the big fish will become extinct?
"A charlatan!"
"Damn it, you're here again?" Ma Yue saw Flint and Water Bug.
"There are big fish here, perfect for wintering, and they can also save a lot of food for the winter." How reasonable is Shuichong's words? Eating big fish will naturally reduce the food consumption of the sea tribe.
At most, they can migrate back in spring and continue to participate in spring plowing.
Since the flint came with them, it must have been delivered by ship. Indeed, for large-scale migrations, sea transport is the most cost-effective.
"It's just right that you're here. It's just carrots, they're delicious. Did you bring any food? Let's exchange this for something else."
Flint and Water Bug were not polite at all. They picked up a carrot and started to eat it.
"tasty!"
Of course it’s delicious, carrots are somewhat sweet.
"Potatoes, yes, they are shipped from Longlin City by sea." said Huoshi.
"It's not a lot of salt," Shuichong added.
"Fishing, they said, it would be okay to exchange it with the big fish here." Ma Yue said.
"That's no problem. The spearguns on our ship are perfect for catching big fish, haha!" Firestone said with a smile, "If I can exchange them for these carrots, they won't go bad if I bring them back."
Huoshi’s idea was more thoughtful.
The fleet Huoshi brought with him consisted of more than a hundred ships, but they had brought quite a few of his people with them. The large ships dispersed, and even went upstream, with many sea vessels fishing. Of course, they dispersed.
Soon, the site of the Fathead Fish Tribe became the wintering grounds of the Sea Tribe. It wasn't very cold here, and there were so many caves. The boats were fishing, and the men of the Sea Tribe were also fishing by the river. It was a lively and exciting scene.
Many people from the Radish and Grass Carp tribes had arrived, so I left it to Shuei-chung to figure out the exchange rate. Fish were meat, after all, so they were naturally more valuable than carrots.
The sea tribe fishes continuously and exchanges are completed. As long as there are advanced tools, it is really not difficult to hunt such a large fish in the river.
It is because the indigenous people living along the river banks have very poor fishing skills that there are so many big fish in this river.
That's good, because it prevents you big fish from overcrowding us, right? Big fish eat small fish, and if there are too many big fish, what happens if there aren't enough small fish to eat? We, the Sea Tribe, will help maintain ecological balance as much as possible.
The ships were sailing higher and higher upstream, constantly bringing back new catches of big fish.
Ma Yue noticed that it wasn't just the Carrot and Grass Carp tribes; new tribes had joined the frenzy of trading for big fish. Well, the Carrot and Grass Carp tribes had limited carrots, right? With the addition of these new tribes, the Sea Tribe wouldn't have to worry about trading away the big fish they'd caught.
Twenty ships sailed off laden with the carrots they had exchanged. They weren't just there to eat, but perhaps the Sea Tribe was also suited to growing these carrots.
Carrots are sweet and are a favorite of the Hai tribe. Eating potatoes and corn all the time is not good, and carrots are a great seasoning.
Didn’t the white radish cultivation scale of the Hai tribe gradually develop?
The harvest of carrots is more substantial than that of rabbits and big fish.
The spear guns deployed on the ships were a natural predator of large fish, their catches were immense. While exchanging with the natives, the tribesmen from the Sea Tribe were also able to catch large fish. The Wodong migration strategy was truly brilliant.
Because catching the big fish in the river was so smooth, if this continued, the Sea Tribe would earn a lot of carrots, which was an unexpected extra gain.
The meat of big fish is very attractive and relatively resistant to hunger, so primitive people naturally like it.
"Water Bug, good, that's very thoughtful. You even brought so many pottery jars, haha!"
"The natives also know that cooked fish and meat are delicious, so of course they are easy to sell." Since he was here, Shuichong was of course thinking about what he could trade. There was not even basic pottery here, and the food was all grilled, which was quite pitiful.
"Our Sea Tribe can be said to have led to the development of civilization in this area, haha!" The exchange was almost done, and the Sea Tribe began to make pottery on their own. With their simple pottery-making technique, they could use any kind of clay.
Later, the Hai tribe became kind-hearted and decided to hand over the kiln-firing skills to you natives.
The many surrounding indigenous tribes expressed their immense gratitude to the Hai Tribe. Pottery exchanges come at a price, and those who can make their own pottery are undoubtedly the best.
The Hai Tribe even exchanged some tools like metal spears and copper axes. Natives, please stay alive and continue growing carrots and raising rabbits. Don't you all starve to death?
Maybe the Hai tribe will come here to spend the winter again next year.
"Charlatan, those horses!" Shuichong looked at Lingma's harem with envy.
"Don't worry about it, those horses are all spiritual, they are monsters, you can't beat them, haha!" The spiritual horses came this time with their beastly nature, and a big part of the reason was because these horses were spiritual, they were all monsters. So, there is no discrimination, right?
"Spring plowing is almost here, it's time to go back." Ma Qun was no longer worried about it, and the Hai tribe's winter farming business was about to end.
"It's time for me to go back to Longlin City. There are too many ambitious people there, all of them are restless elements." Ma Yue said. Donghai Island has been quiet for two years. Those major tribes have probably recovered some of their vitality and may start fighting again.
