Chapter 86 Wheat
What Long Chen said was not only to pave the way for doing business, but also to give faith to this group of people who had just been liberated from oppression - the Dragon God had not abandoned them.
Chu Ange poured out the cotton and dried it in the sun. By the afternoon of the next day, it had become very soft.
The clan leader's wife was very curious about what kind of clothes she was going to make with cotton, so she came to see her early.
I saw her stuffing the cotton into the cotton clothes little by little, beating it with a stick to make it fluffy, and then spreading it evenly.
After stuffing the last bit of cotton in, seal it up again, and “you’re done.”
She couldn't wait to try it on. Although it wasn't as exquisite and beautiful as modern cotton clothes, nor did it fit as well, it was good at keeping warm.
This is her first cotton coat in the animal world.
The clan leader's wife looked at the cotton clothes that wrapped her like a silkworm chrysalis and asked curiously, "It must be very warm since it's wrapped from head to toe."
Chu Ange nodded vigorously: "It's super warm. We won't be afraid of the cold when we go to the beach now."
The tribe leader's wife said: "If we take it to the people of the sea tribe to exchange for salt, we will definitely be able to get a lot of salt."
Although the sea people live by the sea, many of them freeze to death in the winter.
The colder the place you live in, the more you need to keep warm.
This sentence seemed to open up Chu Ange's Ren and Du meridians, and he said to the clan leader's wife: "Madam Yang, let me teach you how to make cotton clothes."
The clan leader's wife was incredulous: "Are you really willing to teach me?"
Chu Ange: "Of course I am willing."
The Patriarch’s wife: “That’s great. Thank you. You are such a good person.”
As soon as the voice fell, the clan leader's wife seemed to remember something and looked embarrassed: "But, we don't have cotton cloth."
Chu Ange's eyes sparkled, and he said, "Come to our tribe to exchange. Next year, you can collect all the cotton and bring it to our tribe to exchange for cotton cloth. With the cotton cloth, you can make cotton clothes."
"Take your cotton clothes to the beach and exchange them for salt. Then, bring the salt to our tribe and exchange it for food."
The Lamb Tribe is located between the White Wolf Tribe and the Sea Tribe. They can exchange salt and then bring the salt to the White Wolf Tribe for exchange. This way, the White Wolf Tribe can save a lot of manpower and resources.
She was able to come up with this compromise, is she a genius?
But the clan leader's wife shook her head and said, "It's ok to exchange cotton cloth, but not meat."
"Why not?" Chu Ange said. Isn't the Lamb Tribe the most in need of meat?
The chief's wife: "The White Wolf Tribe is too far away. The meat will all go bad if we bring it back."
Chu Ange smiled and said, "The meat from the White Wolf Tribe is blessed by the Dragon God. It won't smell bad or spoil no matter how far you carry it. It also smells really good."
Let the Lamb Tribe help them exchange salt, and they will give them smoked bacon in exchange.
"Not only do we have meat that won't spoil, we also have a lot of food you haven't seen before. We guarantee you won't lose out."
Meat that won’t go bad? The clan leader's wife was moved. "Great! I will study hard and bring more salt to exchange with you."
"The exchange team is back." A loud shout came from the entrance of the tribe.
The exchange team is the group of people who take the caper beans to the Eagle Tribe to exchange for food. The supplies they bring back will be the hope for everyone in the Lamb Tribe to survive the winter.
The clan leader's wife hurriedly followed him out, and Chu Ange also followed to see the excitement.
I thought I would see an exchange team returning with a full load, but what I saw was a team covered in dust and looking dejected.
Whatever supplies you bring when you leave, you still bring the same supplies when you come back.
It's just that the number has decreased.
"Where are the supplies you exchanged for?" Chief Sheep asked impatiently.
A sheep warrior stepped forward and knelt in front of the sheep chief. "Chief, I'm sorry to everyone. We were unable to exchange the food back."
"The Eagle Tribe is unwilling to exchange with us?" said the Sheep Chief.
The Sheep Warrior had a sad face: "The Eagle Tribe was attacked by Snake Wing and his men. When we went there, Snake Wing had already led his men to plunder their tribe."
The Eagle Tribe may have difficulty surviving this winter, so there is no extra food to exchange with them.
The sheep chief hung his head, said nothing, his eyes full of sadness and helplessness.
After a long while, he sighed and said, "Put away the caper beans."
Fortunately, they still have alligator meat.
Having been used to living a poor life, they cherished food very much, so they did not eat much crocodile meat.
"Don't be discouraged. Even if we don't get any meat, we can still go hunting. We can get through this winter." Yangyang comforted everyone.
The people in the exchange team didn't know that Crocodile and Crocodile were already dead, and they just thought that Yangyang was comforting them.
The sheep warrior of the exchange team was picking up the capers while saying to the sheep chieftain, "I'll take some people to collect some plants and fruits."
The plants and fruits are left for the young and females, while the males eat capers, which always allows them to survive the winter.
When he was packing the caper beans, the animal skin bag opened a little, and Chu Ange happened to see what was inside.
"Wait a minute." Chu Ange walked over, opened it, and immediately laughed.
"You call this a caper bean." She almost burst into tears, thinking it was some bean with thorns, but it turned out to be wheat.
In modern times, this is the staple food of northerners.
How long has it been since she last had staple food? I haven’t eaten it since I traveled to the Beast World.
"Yes, this is the caper bean." Seeing how happy she was, the Sheep Chief couldn't bear to tell her the truth, so he said awkwardly, "Although the caper bean can be eaten, it's not tasty at all. It's very hard to chew, and eating too much will hurt your throat."
So, they just eat it raw?
She opened another animal skin bag, which was full of wheat.
There are at least twenty animal skin bags here, which means more than twenty bags of wheat.
"I'll trade meat with you. How much meat do you need?" Chu Ange said. Meat was not a rare thing for her. Not to mention that they could hunt at any time along the way, even if they returned, there were so many animals raised in the tribe that they would not be short of meat.
Wheat is different. She has not found a staple plant so far. Now that she has found it today, she will definitely bring some back.
She wants to eat steamed buns, scallion pancakes and noodles now.
You can also save some seeds to plant back.
"Mr. Envoy, they said this thing doesn't taste good." Langlin kindly reminded.
"It's delicious, very delicious." Chu Ange was in a very good mood.
Lang Lin understood that just because others said something was delicious, it might not necessarily be true. But if the envoy said it was delicious, then it must be delicious.
He felt ashamed of his doubt just now: "Great Dragon God, I was not questioning you, please forgive me."
The envoy recognized this thing and thought it was delicious. This must be a gift from the Dragon God to her.
And he actually questioned the envoy.
Although the Xiaoyang tribe does not have a priest to teach them the orthodox method of worshiping the Dragon God, they also believe in the Dragon God.
The exchange team members who had just returned empty-handed saw this scene and were shocked: "Dragon God?"
