Chapter 116 White Salt Controversy (Please add to favorites and recommend)
"Haha, having a woman is a good thing, there's nothing to be embarrassed about, come, take this, I promise you can take the girl home."
Luo Chong teased Dazui, took a small pottery bowl from the side, scooped half a bowl of white salt and handed it to Dazui. These things, let alone as a gift, are enough to buy the girl back. I don't believe the other party will disagree.
Dazui happily carried half a bowl of white salt and ran to the stall of the Cha tribe excitedly, with a few friends beside him to cheer him up.
"Respected leader, please let me take the woman away. This is my gift to your tribe."
Dazui put one hand on his chest and bent down slightly, first respectfully saluted the leader of the Cha tribe, and then brought half a bowl of white salt to the other party.
The leader of the Cha tribe first looked at the pottery bowl. Although the container was a little small, it was sincere enough, but he didn't recognize the white sand in the bowl.
Chief Fork took the ceramic bowl and sniffed it. There was no smell. Then he pointed at the bowl and asked, "What is this and what is it for?"
Although Big Mouth didn't understand, he could see that Chief Fork was confused. He pointed at the bowl and said only one word, "white salt", and then put a little with his hand into his mouth.
"White salt."
Chief Fork repeated, and then pinched a little and put it in his mouth. The next moment, a unique salty taste of sodium chloride exploded in his mouth. Chief Fork was almost choked to death. His eyes opened wide in an instant, and then he swallowed the salt with all his strength.
"Is this from your tribe? How much is left? Do you want to exchange it?"
Chief Fork asked three questions in a row.
Big Mouth was confused when he heard it. He didn't understand what was going on. Seeing Chief Fork's nervous and anxious look, Big Mouth thought he was not satisfied, and then tentatively pointed at the girl.
Chief Cha was stunned for a moment, then he remembered what Big Mouth was here for, then he nodded affirmatively and led the girl to Big Mouth, who was holding the girl's hand and laughing foolishly, then he took the girl back with a few friends.
Chief Cha turned around and handed the half bowl of white salt to a warrior from his tribe, asking him to keep it safe, and then followed Big Mouth to the stall of the Han tribe.
On the stall of the Han tribe, there were some pottery neatly stacked, including ten pottery pots, dozens of pottery bowls, and a full pot of white salt.
Luo Chong was afraid that it would be too conspicuous to bring out a big barrel, so he only put a pot of salt outside.
The leader of the Cha tribe did not speak directly, but stood in the crowd and looked at the Han tribe. It seemed that he had never been to this tribe before, but when he looked around, he saw two familiar figures, one was Duer with a scar on his face, and the other was Beast Tooth with two saber-toothed tiger teeth hanging on his neck. The images of these two people were too easy to be remembered. But their leaders, how could they be so
young There were also several leaders of other tribes who stopped to watch.
The Dan tribe, which can make slingshots with animal tendons, also cook soup in their tribe, but they don’t use clay pots, but animal skins. They make a leather bag with animal skins, put water and food in it, and then throw the burning stones into the leather bag. The water and food inside will be cooked. It is very primitive.
The leader of the Dan tribe was attracted by the pot of fish soup. He liked the clay pot that can cook soup directly.
There is also the Zhu tribe that uses grape juice to fry brown sugar. They also need a container that can be heated directly to fry brown sugar. The Zhu leader was also attracted by the clay pot.
There are also the Mushroom Tribe, which is good at distinguishing mushrooms; the Ao Tribe, which wears tortoise shells and likes to use giant turtle shells as shields; the Xue Tribe, which is good at digging holes; the Ya Tribe, whose warriors all wear animal tooth earrings; and the Feishi Tribe, which is very good at playing with slingshots.
The leaders of these tribes were attracted by the cattle and deer of the Han Tribe and the truck.
There are still some leaders of the Bear Tribe, the Tiger Tribe, the Pattern Tribe, the Scythe Tribe, the Fire Tribe, the Vertical Tribe, and the Thorn Tribe who have not come. They are still looking after their stalls, but some of their tribesmen are gathered here.
A group of people watched the people who were cooking and pinched a little of the white sand to sprinkle on the food. They couldn't help but be curious. The sand quickly melted when sprinkled on the fried fish and barbecue, which made them even more curious. What is that?
After watching for a while, someone finally couldn't help it. The Ya leader, who was wearing two animal tooth earrings, pointed to the pot of white salt and said, "What is this? Is it edible?"
Luo Chong smiled and took a string of cooked barbecue and handed it to him, and pointed to the pot and said the word "white salt".
Chief Ya took the barbecue and repeated the Mandarin name of white salt. The people around him also whispered, white salt, it turns out that the white sand is called white salt, it is something to eat, everyone has learned a Mandarin word.
Chief Ya took a bite of the barbecue, the spicy and salty taste and the aroma of the barbecue instantly conquered his taste buds, well, it's really delicious! But why did it feel weird, then he took another bite and tasted it carefully in his mouth, chewing and chewing, Chief Ya was suddenly stunned, salty, this meat is salty.
"The saltiness of this meat?" Chief Ya pointed to the remaining half of the barbecue and asked in surprise.
"White salt."
Luo Chong nodded affirmatively, pinched a little white salt and put it in his hand, motioning him to eat it, then grabbed another handful and pinched a little for the leaders around him.
Chief Ya put the salt in his mouth at once, frowned and tasted the saltiness carefully.
Seeing that Chief Ya seemed to be fine after eating the white salt, the leaders around him followed suit and tasted the white salt.
The moment it entered the mouth, a pure salty taste burst out. Several leaders were stunned at the same time, and then frowned deeply and continued to taste.
They had eaten salty things, but it was the first time they had seen such pure white salt without any impurities and no strange smell.
The leaders
swallowed their saliva and asked in unison: "How do we exchange white salt?"
Luo Chong smiled lightly. Seeing that his goal had been achieved, he did not keep the secret any longer. He picked up a small ceramic bowl, scooped a full bowl of white salt, and then pointed at a boy in the crowd.
"So much white salt, in exchange for a boy."
Several leaders were stunned, and seemed to think that Luo Chong's price was a bit high, but they thought about it carefully and felt that it was not unacceptable.
Such good white salt, such pure saltiness, God knows how the Han tribe got it. What if this thing is very rare, what if collecting this thing requires risking life, what if it is particularly difficult to make, then it is understandable to ask for a man in exchange.
The Ya leader wanted to bargain with Luo Chong again. He picked up a large ceramic bowl from the side, filled it with salt, and pointed at a boy.
"No, it's too much. This is not fair."
Luo Chong shook his head, took the large ceramic bowl, and poured all the salt in it onto the small ceramic bowl, making a peak on the small ceramic bowl. In fact, it was still the amount traded with the Bian tribe, about three pounds.
"That's all. Change it for another boy. No more."
