Chapter 231: Searching for the Salt League (Please vote and subscribe)
"Do you really know which direction the Han tribe is in?" Xiong Han asked worriedly.
"I don't know how to get there from here, but I know how to get there from Rumeng Water Valley. When I came back, I saw which direction the Han tribe went from.
As long as our people get to Rumeng Water Valley first and then look for it in that direction, I think the Han tribe brought hundreds of people with them. There must be traces left along the way. When we look for them along the way, we will definitely be able to find the Han tribe.
It's just that it may take a little longer, maybe one or two moons to get back. It's definitely not safe if there are fewer people on the road, but if we each send people, we definitely can't send too many people, so I came to ask you, do you want to send someone to look for it with us?" Chief Cha explained to Xiong Han.
"Well, what you said makes sense. As long as you can determine the direction of the Han tribe, it will be no problem for me to send a few people there. But you know that our Xiong tribe does not have as many people as you, so we certainly can't send many people. Also, what should we use to exchange salt from the Han tribe? People? We really can't afford to send many people."
Xiong Han first agreed to Jian's proposal, and then expressed his concerns. If the Han tribe still wanted to exchange people, then they really wouldn't be able to afford it.
"I have thought about the problem you mentioned, and I think it is unlikely. The Han tribe used white salt to exchange for population before. I think it may be because there are not many people in their tribe, so they used this method to quickly absorb a group of people to strengthen the strength of their tribe.
But at the Spring Meeting, they brought back more than 500 people, which should have met their needs. After all, too many people is not a good thing, and it is difficult to feed so many people, so I think they may not use population trading again.
As for how many people to send, I want to send 15 people this time, ten warriors, and five girls, wearing some animal skins for exchange. If the Han tribe still uses population for trading, then I will exchange five people first, and find a way to get the rest later. If they agree to exchange with animal skins, that would be even better, wouldn't it?" Chief Cha speculated.
"Well, it's really possible. Let's not talk about how many people the Han tribe has. Just the people they exchanged from the Spring Festival are a problem. How to feed so many people? How much food do they need?
But then again, we really can't exchange people for white salt with them. If we go this time, I can only send ten warriors with some animal skins for exchange. If they really don't exchange, we will come back and think of a way." Xiong Han finally made a decision.
"Well, if you send ten people, we will have 25 people in total, and it will definitely be safer on the road.
As for whether the Han tribe is willing to exchange animal skins, we will come back and discuss it. The most urgent thing is to find the location of the Han tribe first. Otherwise, even if they are willing to exchange, it will be useless if we can't find the place."
Xiong Han nodded frequently after listening to Jian's words, but thinking of Jian's intention, he was immediately inspired. Since the Cha tribe can come to him for help, he can also ask other neighbors for help.
So, after a brief communication, the two decided to win over more tribes to go find the Han tribe together.
The next day, the two leaders carefully selected 25 people to carry out the mission, and continued to win over other tribes along the way.
The search team composed of the two tribes set out quickly, and among them were several old hunters from the Bear Tribe, who were good at observing the traces left by prey to track them.
This skill is also very useful for this journey to find Han. Since they don't know the specific location of the Han tribe, they can only rely on these people to find the traces left by the Han tribe.
On the second day after the Han-seeking team set out, they met another nearby tribe. When they told their purpose and plan, the tribe decided to send ten people to go on the road together. The number of people in the Han-seeking team also increased from 25 to 35, and this number is still increasing.
The team went all the way to the Rumeng Water Valley. New tribes kept sending people to join along the way. By the time they reached Rumeng Water Valley, the team had increased to 7 tribes and the number of people reached 85.
After discussion, the leaders decided to rest for a day in Rumeng Water Valley and send a small number of people to the surrounding areas of Rumeng Water Valley to find more tribes willing to travel with them.
After a day of rest, on the morning when they set out again, five more tribes and 40 people came one after another, and the number of people in the entire Han-seeking team suddenly exceeded 100.
Moreover, these tribes were all tribes that had participated in this year's Spring Meeting, and many people also knew the direction in which the Han tribe left. In the end, everyone compared their understanding with each other and quickly figured out the specific direction. The team of more than 100 people set foot on the northeast of Rumeng Water Valley, and found the traces left on the road that day.
Those were the marks left along the road by the tribesmen of the Fire Tribe. Later, when Luo Chong sent people to attack the Fire Tribe, they also followed these marks to find the way there, so the marks had never been destroyed, so it was just right for the team looking for the Han tribe.
The team walked and stopped along the marks. Sometimes when the marks were unclear, they had to spend a lot of energy to find them, and they also had to hunt along the way to ensure their own food source.
After traveling for a few more days, the Han-seeking team suddenly encountered a tribe, which was the Snake Tribe, which was two or three days away from the Han tribe.
The hunting team of the Snake Tribe met these people while hunting. At first, they were very frightened, thinking that it was sent by a large tribe to attack them. As a result, the leader of the hunting team of the Snake Tribe happened to have participated in this year's Spring Meeting and immediately recognized several familiar faces in this team.
"Oh, you guys are not from the same tribe, right? Where are you going?" the leader of the Snake Tribe asked.
"Oh, it's the Snake Tribe. We are planning to go find the Han Tribe to exchange some salt, but we don't know the exact location of the Han Tribe, so we teamed up to find it.
By the way, your Snake Tribe is also in this direction, so it should not be far from the Han Tribe. Do you know how to get to the Han Tribe?" asked the leader of the Fork Tribe.
"So you are going to the Han Tribe. I really don't know where they live, and we in the Snake Tribe have not had much contact with them.
But I know that the Bian Tribe and the Han Tribe should have a good relationship, and they should know the location of the Han Tribe. I can take you to the Bian Tribe, and then ask them, and you should be able to find it." The leader of the Snake Tribe said.
