Searching for food through the beast world

tempting deal

Hearing Elder Bai's proposal, Ding Xiao froze for a moment.

This sentence is still somewhat informative.First of all, this means that Tiger God City will hold a large market next year.Secondly, the Elder personally invited him to go to Tiger God City to do business.Then there is their own barbecue sauce and jerky that seem to be targeted!Ding Xiao's heart is full of emotions at this time.He likes making money, but he doesn't like being close to those in power.It's not that he's afraid of officials, what he's afraid of is that he is a time-traveling person with an external sky eye!

"This...I have to discuss it with Kun. I'm sorry that I can't answer you directly." Ding Xiao replied calmly on the surface.

Of course Elder Bai couldn't say anything else. "Well, this must be discussed by you young couple. I don't have any other intentions. I just think that your food cooking skills are so good. If only people from a few nearby villages can occasionally taste the food of our Mavericks. A big loss."

Ding laughed at the black thread, wearing this tall hat. "Where is your exaggeration. In fact, I am also very happy that someone likes the food I cook." This guy, Kun, why Mao caught up with today's patrol!If you don't go, you don't need me to "deal with" this leader! ! !

Elder Bai smiled: "I can see that you are a good boy who is capable and considerate. In fact, I also have something to discuss with Kun, but unfortunately he is not at home. Otherwise, when he comes back, you will ask him to go to the village to find him. Let me go, can I?"

It sounds like I'm leaving!Ding Xiao nodded immediately: "Of course no problem!" Although he really wanted to know what Elder Bai wanted to do with Kun and used the word "discussion", but he was very sensible.He didn't need to ask the other party about this kind of thing at all, and he would definitely tell himself when Kun came back.

Elder Bai just said a few words and left.In Ding Xiao's eyes, he has completely achieved the state of not squinting.That is to say, he didn't see that Elder Bai paid special attention to his house and cattle pens.

I have to say that the "protecting the village" thought that the sacrifice, He Adie, and Kun put under Ding Xiao's control was too serious. Even after Kun also mentioned a few words about the purpose of Elder Bai's main visit to the village, Ding Xiao was still wary of Elder Bai. , and because of his various secret relationships, he is actually more nervous than others.

When Kun came back in the evening, he saw Ding Xiao sitting by the window in a daze. "Smile, what's the matter?"

Seeing Kun, Ding Xiao hurriedly closed his eyes: "Kun, Elder Bai came to our house this morning."

Kun Yi raised his eyebrows: "What's the matter with him?"

Ding Xiao said everything that Elder Bai had said to him, and at the end he asked with great entanglement: "Do you think we will go or not? Also, if there is a market in Tiger God City, the market in our Tianhe Village will be Isn’t it going to be affected? Also, how far is Tiger God City from our Tianhe Village? If you run fast, how many days will it take you to get there?”

Brother Kun is very familiar with the expressions and movements of his partner.He could see that Xiaoxiao had instinctive resistance to Tiger God City and Elder Bai, and he was very clear about the reason, but it wasn't a problem for him.In addition to these resistances, Xiaoxiao is actually not uninterested in being able to do business in Tiger God City.In a way, he was even excited.It is only because of the first reason that I want to back down.Of course, when it comes to Kun, there is only one result, and he will never do anything that is not beneficial. "Tiger God City is located in the middle of the territory of our Winged Tiger Clan. There are five small villages around it. The big villages like our Tianhe Village, Shengliang Village and Wangyun Village are all far away from Tiger God City."

Ding Xiao interjected: "Then where are Wangyun Village and Shengliang Village?" He suddenly felt that the Yihu tribe's territory is so large, should he visit the place of his own tribe first?

Kun replied: "Our Tianhe Village is in the north of the territory, Shengliang Village is in the south, and Wangyun Village is in the west." Seeing Xiaoxiao just nodded without asking any more questions, he continued, "From our Tianhe Village, at my speed , without eating, drinking or resting, it will take three days at the fastest. Even if Tiger God City wants to open a market, it is impossible to do it once every seven days like us. Unless the patriarch means to be like us, it is convenient for people in several nearby villages. But The villages near the main city have less than 600 people."

Ding Xiao nodded solemnly: "That is to say, it is very likely that the market in Tiger God City will take longer to open once? Actually, it is really troublesome. I think the big market around the wall is enough to be busy."

Kun smiled: "So if you don't want to go, we can refuse."

Ding Xiao stroked his chin with no beard showing, and thought about it carefully: "It's better to wait until you ask Elder Bai why he is looking for you. The business can be decided later."

When Elder Bai and Kun were "discussing" things, the village head was asked to avoid it.This made Peng Jia a little depressed, but also a little relieved.He is very clear about his son's temperament, and it is really impossible to get something from Kun that has no equal benefits.So he was happy to go home and have fun with his partner and children for a while, anyway, Min stayed at the village today. (It's enough!)

Talking to people who are smart and facially palsy, the most important thing is to be straightforward.A tactful ending is very likely to suffer for both parties.So Elder Bai cut to the chase: "Kun, I heard that you and your second uncle thought of Kang?"

Kun's heart skipped a beat, but there was still no response on the surface: "Yes." One sound is enough, fully expressing his answer and inner attitude.Although he was not sure that he could beat Elder Bai alone, but he could run if he couldn't. (--)

Elder Bai's expression didn't change, he still smiled: "To tell you the truth, I've been living in your Tianhe Village for the past few days, and I like this warm kang very much. Although few households in your village use it, It’s still in the experimental stage. But I can invite you and your second uncle to go to Hushen City to help teach the clansmen in the main city how to build earthen kangs on behalf of the patriarch. Of course, all the credit is due to your Tianhe Village.”

A simple and clear thing is to advance the date to before the villagers of Tianhe Village agree.Kun asked: "Why didn't you tell my father?" In the name of the village department, it must be the most appropriate to talk to the village chief, right?

Elder Bai was straightforward: "He doesn't know how. Besides, everyone thinks highly of you." The implication is that not only Tianhe Village, but even Tiger God City think highly of you.

Kun would not get excited just because of such a sentence. "Then I can only discuss with you personally."

Elder Bai nodded: "That's right."

Kun was silent for a while, and then said, "Can I ask a question first?"

"of course can."

"If there is a market in Tiger God City, how often will it be?"

"Once every fifty days, every two days. The market will be closed after winter." Elder Bai replied.

It seems that Tiger God City already has a very detailed plan.If it's once every fifty days, and once every two days, it's okay.In fact, the wall is indeed a little far away, mainly because it is away from the territory of the tribe, and there will be less security.Besides, the number of people who can go each time is limited, so it would be nice if the tribe had a large market.It’s just that it’s enough for me and Xiaoxiao to go once or twice occasionally, and it’s impossible to go every time.Originally, there was nothing lacking at home, it was just that my little friend liked to collect shellfish. "I'll discuss it with my father."

Just expecting such an answer, Elder Bai was not in a hurry. "Oh, by the way, I heard Teng say that you two want to travel to various continents after getting married, right?"

There is no need to deny this point: "Even if other tribes are not as powerful as our Mavericks, they still have something to learn from them."

Elder Bai quite agrees with this statement. "Your idea is not wrong. So if the matter of Tukang can be resolved as soon as possible so that the whole clan can spend the warm winter. I can promise that you two can accept the test of the wise man. If you pass, the clan will give you A dragon bone waist plate."

Hearing this, Kun's originally paralyzed face suddenly had an expression.Part surprise, part obvious longing. "Okay. I'll go talk to my dad."

Although they still mean the same thing, Elder Bai knows that the meaning of the two sentences is actually quite different. "I believe that you and the young couple can pass the test of the wise."

The keel waist card is said to be a token handed down from generation to generation by the Dragon Clan.People with keel badges can be received and admired by all tribes.And there are not many people who are eligible to get the keel waist card, and there may not even be one in several generations.The so-called wise man's trial is actually the unanimous approval of the patriarch, chief priests and elders, and it is also a form of trial to get the approval of more clansmen.

In the beast world, the orcs respect those who can bring more benefits to the tribe.The Great Wisdom Man is a title worthy of a person who can make great progress and changes in the tribe.Elder Bai believed that the Tukang could reach this level, so it was not an excuse for the Supreme Council to say this to Kun.Kun naturally understood this too, that's why he showed his expression in front of Elder Bai.

Xiaoxiao's wish is to travel around different continents, bring back the characteristic plants of different regions to Tianhe Village, and write "Searching for Food" to help future generations identify food.This kind of thing has actually already surpassed the level of great wisdom.In Kun's heart, Xiaoxiao is really a treasure given to him by the Beast God, and it is also a miracle sent by the Beast God to make their lives better.If he had the keel badge, then he would have a way to enter the territory of other tribes with a smile. Although it may not be true that he can be admired by people from various tribes as in the legend, at least it is true that he will not be attacked.

So the temptation is great.In the future, I and Xiaoxiao can bring back more plant seeds, so that the tribe can eat more delicious food.He thought it would be a very cost-effective thing to let more people learn how to build earth kangs at the same time by being one step ahead of the villagers, and Elder Bai had already stated that he wanted the name of Tianhe Village.

For his son's decision, Peng Jia didn't have much objection.In fact, when Kun and He started helping the villagers build earth kangs this summer, there were no restrictions on who could and who could not.In addition to the lack of time, Tianhe Village has a large population, and there is no way for two people to take care of them all at once.More are the villagers who are watching.For new things, orcs have an instinctive distrust, and they will completely believe it unless someone uses it and judges that there is really no problem.This may have something to do with the vigilant nature of wild beasts.

Now if the kang is directly reported to Tiger God City, it means that the kang is completely safe and extremely beneficial.In this way, the villagers will naturally choose to build earth kangs next year, so this is definitely not a bad thing.

As for the keel badge, the priest was more excited.As one of the elders who love Ding Xiao the most, the priest doesn't know the purpose of Xiaoxiao's trip to the world of beasts.There are many differences in the medicines and some medicinal materials used by different lands and tribes.If Ding Xiao can bring back the plants that these winged tigers don't have and can grow here in the future, it will not only be a matter of having more delicious food.Therefore, this great wisdom thinks that Ding Xiao, the envoy of the beast god, is naturally well-deserved.And Kun... Heh heh, the brat is just lucky, he swallowed up Xiaoxiao so early!

The person who is most excited about this matter is actually Ding Xiao.

He jumped up when he learned that they might have a "pass" that could safely enter and exit the various tribal territories.Never thought that in the world of beasts, there is such a privileged "card"! "Then you promised Elder Bai to teach the people of Tiger God City to build earth kangs?"

Kun nodded: "Sooner or later, it will be taught to the tribe. It's just that people in Tianhe Village haven't used it yet."

Ding Xiao does not take this seriously. After all, living in modern times, everyone is used to prioritizing their own interests.For a social environment like the current Beast World, which has just become private ownership and still has a lot of common ownership, there are some customs and thinking that he can't fully understand. "Anyway, there is no need to go there now. You can tell Elder Bai that you will go again in June next year. Just say that winter is not suitable." In fact, what Ding Xiao thought was that the winter is so cold, so that Kun and Dad should not go so far busy place.In the beginning of spring, the land will be plowed and planted again. After the people in the village have divided the land, they must have a lot of things to do.It would be nice to be able to spare time in June.

Kun nodded: "I want to take Feng and the others, but my second uncle and I are not enough."

Ding Xiao thought about it for a while: "Even if seven or eight of you go, it's not enough. You might as well just find about twenty honest single males. Then teach them how to build an earthen kang. When the time comes, those of them in Fengfeng Find a captain or something among the people, and form several "kang-building teams". This will not only ensure that the credit of our Tianhe Village will not be weakened, but also allow more people to master this craft. It is not too complicated, and it is not necessary It’s too stingy. As long as everyone in the village knows that people in our village taught it, it’s fine.” This should be the problem that the village chief and the priest are concerned about, right?And he also felt that finding single males to form an engineering team might solve their marriage problems. (囧I can't kill you——)

"It must be done after the land is planted. When you go to the main city with me, there may be some plants that are not nearby. There is also the main city market. We can cooperate with Elder Bai." The proposal was basically the same as his own idea, but he thought more about it. Although a single male has no worries, he will inevitably have feelings for half-orcs and females from other villages. If he stays in Tianhe Village in other villages, he will "suffer" up.So he decided that it would be more appropriate to look for some uncles who were around two hundred years old.Steady, and the feeling for the village is the kind of person who will not be easily tempted.

So Xiaoxiao's suggestion of a slightly "matchmaker" candidate was quietly rejected by Kun in his heart...
