Searching for food through the beast world

Chapter 185 A Striking Exchange

eye-catching exchange

After tasting the curry fish head, Ah Qi's eyes widened. "This taste is very strange, not as spicy as chili, but it is much more delicious than eating chili alone. What is this?"

Hearing the word "chili", Ding Xiao instinctively asked first: "Do you eat chili?"

Aqi replied: "Yes. There are peppers on our island. People of our Tianyu tribe live by the water and in the sea every day, and they always want to eat something warm. The pepper is an ancestor of our tribe who brought people from the land. In exchange for it. Later it was planted on the island.”

Do you need warmth too?I thought it was cold for you to walk back and forth in shorts like this. "We also eat chili. In fact, ginger is the warmer thing. Oh, yes, mine tastes better than curry, and it is made from a special fruit of our Maverick tribe. Also, I still have people here Take a sip of wine and feel warm in your stomach, let me try it."

So the hard sell has begun...

Take a sip of pear wine, the mellow aroma of the wine and the sweetness of the pears, the slightly spicy feeling after the entrance, and the warmth in the stomach.All this made Ao Nayi and Nabe happy.

Nabe was a little emotional: "This, what is this water? It's really warm to drink! And it tastes good too. Is this medicine?"

Ding Xiao replied: "This is called wine. It was indeed made by the priests of our village inadvertently when they were researching medicine. Now people in our village drink this wine in winter. It has many flavors. I brought it with me. This, I originally wanted to exchange fish with you if you like it. But I don’t know if you will like it.”

Nabe nodded vigorously: "I like it! This is an amazing thing! For us Tianyu people, it is a very, very good thing! The sacrifices in your village are really amazing!"

Isn't this the same as boasting yourself!Although the drinking stuff was not invented by himself, did he actively develop it in the village?So a little pride is there. "It's fine if you like it. But you can drink more of this stuff. If you drink too much, you will become dizzy and lose your mind. But you will be fine after you sleep. So one sip of wine at a time is enough." Laughter taught the priest what to say to the tribe, otherwise the appetite of the males would not all be cultivated into wine mengzi! (hope you understand)

Compared with the four colors of linen.The people of the Tianyu tribe need lean animal meat and animal hides more.But now what they value most are the several wines brought by Ding Xiao and Kun, as well as the sauce that can make the fish very delicious.

Since they came here specifically to exchange things, it was necessary to negotiate terms.

Kun doesn't ask for anything.But I don't want to suffer either.These few bamboo tubes of wine were used to exchange dried sea cucumbers with Aqi and the others.Ever since they ate Ding Xiao's roasted sea cucumbers with scallions, the whole family has fallen in love with the taste.So this time they came to have the willingness to change this.And these few bamboo tubes of wine seem to be very precious to the Tianyu tribe, so Kun is also very "kind" and wants to exchange five bags of dried sea cucumbers with them.

Five bags of dried sea cucumbers are quite impressive in terms of quantity.But these wines are even more rare.There are three people in their family. If they drink three sips a day, they can drink for a long time.And the other party also said that as long as you don't open the lid and put it in a place that is too hot, it will not be damaged no matter how you put it.So they agreed very readily.Although I don't have so many at home, I can just exchange a few stones of animal meat from my tribe when I go back.

As a gift of curry paste, Ding Xiao generously gave out four jars, which happened to be enough to empty the curry powder he carried with him.But he didn't have that many jars to put in, so he hoped that Nayi would bring some containers when they came tomorrow.And the two sides have negotiated. In the future, each can of curry paste will be about five stones in weight. Aqi and his tribe can exchange the same five stones of dry goods.What kind of conch meat, scallop meat, abalone meat, clam meat can be used.Dried fish is also available.However, because there are fish bones and they are easier to obtain than others, Kun felt that it would cost at least three stones more to scoop up dried fish.

Both Aqi and Nabe think this exchange method is very reasonable.After all, they can't eat fish bones, and many fish bones are very heavy and hard. The demands of this Maverick male are not too much.So, like the five-spice braised sauce, they promised that in addition to the meat sauce, other sauces can be exchanged at this price if they like it in the future.

As for the animal meat, they must exchange it.However, Kun's requirements are not high. Although animal bones can be used as tools in some places, not all animal bones are durable and hard enough.So this time the negotiation between the two sides is very easy, just close your eyes.The main reason is that Ding Xiao likes and approves of calling the shots.The general direction is to accept the three members of their family cheaply and cheaply.Anyway, you can’t take fresh fish with you, and it takes a long time to pickle and dry salted fish, so the only options you can carry are semi-dried salted fish and smoked-dried fish.The quantity can't be too outrageous, but the animal meat can still be given to them first, and the remaining dried fish can be scooped up during the winter market.

Now even Ding Xiao doesn't need to worry about the word "integrity" which is the basic principle of the beast world exchange.So in the end both parties are happy.Ding Xiao also gave Na Yi the remaining four pieces of cloth about one foot long and the specially reserved crystal chain.And tell them that if they or their clansmen like it, they can order a quantity with them these few days while they are here.For this width, count by feet.Talk about the color you like, and then bring it to the winter market to exchange.As for how to change it, we can talk about it later.Anyway, at that time, uncle and aunt will come to change.According to Ding Xiao's idea, my aunt might like pearls more.As for those crystal chains, Ding Xiao has no idea now.Just treat it as a little bit of your own heart and send it to this new friend.

In the next few days, Ding Xiao concentrated on making the sauce, and taught Nabe how to use the sauce to make fish.Ding Xiao kindly took him to the forest to find ginger and other herbs that can warm the body.Then tell Nabe which of these things should be soaked in water to drink directly.Which ones can be eaten with fish or meat.

During the conversation, Nabe learned that Ding Xiao was the priest's apprentice, and his physical strength could make him a future priest.It's no wonder that two people can stay away from the tribe or even pass through another tribe just to come to the seaside to exchange fish with them.It turns out that there is a wound or something, can it be completely resolved by yourself?However, Nabe felt like laughing at the fact that he ran so far on purpose to scoop up fish and shells in the sea.This half-orc named Ding Xiao is really cute, and like his younger brother, he has a deep obsession with eating.But he is much more capable than Nayi, he can make such delicious food, and he also knows medical skills. This male named Kun is really blessed!

Brother Kun has been hunting in the woods for the past two days.In addition to what I and Xiaoxiao need to eat every day, most of them are exchanged by scooping.Of course, he didn't hunt too exaggeratedly.After all, Aqi and the three of them have limited expendability.And they are not so "luxury" to eat meat every day, enough to eat for a year or so.But he was very envious of Aqi and the people on his island who each had an ice cave where they could store food.It's a pity that there is only one big one in their Tianhe Village, and it can only start to freeze gradually in the middle of autumn.

Nayi and Aqi are also very busy.Busy catching fish and collecting shellfish, busy helping to process the fish and drying them on the beach.Every day is busy at sea and below, and the life is indescribably more energetic and fulfilling.

In short, everyone is working hard for their own goals and desires.But the fact that the three of them can bring back the fresh and whole animal meat every day is destined to be noticed by other Tianyu people on Bibo Island.

So on the fourth day of their busy work, three unknown Tianyu people appeared on the beach.After Nabe saw these three people, his face froze immediately.Then met Li. "Hello, village chief."

Hearing that it was the village chief's call, Ding Xiao immediately stopped what he was doing and looked up.Among the three people who came, two of them were relatively burly.Of course it is much worse than Kun, but stronger than Ah Qi.Both have dark blue hair and eyes, fair skin, and look very European.The other was about the same size and build as Nabe, with blond hair and pale gold eyes.It looks very beautiful.But in terms of Ding Xiao's aesthetics, he still prefers Nabe and Nayi.This is the appearance of intimacy!

Now is the time to make lunch.In the forest not far away, Kun uses river water to clean up prey.Nayi and Aqi have not come up from the sea yet.So there are only Ding Xiao and Nabe on the beach.Now the village head suddenly appeared, making Nabe very nervous.After all, frequent contact with male orcs outside alone is something that people don't like.What's more, they haven't told the villagers that someone directly wants to exchange fish with them at the beach.

Everyone has a selfish heart. How many things can two orcs buy back?If you tell other people in the village what happened, they will definitely get less in exchange.So Nabe is somewhat guilty now.After all, such a good thing, I have no idea to share it with my tribe.

The village chief didn't think Nabe's behavior was so bad.It's just that I feel a little unhappy how many times in my heart.Especially Ai Shilai told his son that the Nabe family seemed to be conspiring with the male orcs on the shore recently.A lot of animal meat can be brought back every day.This is what worries him the most.Nabe was his son's favorite person.Although he had a marriage contract with his son and Ai Shi, but his son has been reluctant to marry for so many years, and he understands it very well.It's just that for the people of their Tianyu clan, once there is a marriage contract, both parties must agree to dissolve it.So the father and son were very concerned about Nabe's constant contact with orc males.

"Nabe, why don't you introduce me?" Seeing that there was only one half-orc on the shore, Bang's nervousness was relieved.So it wasn't two orc males.Then it seems that this half-orc and that male are very likely to be in a partnership.Your own crisis should be basically lifted.

Nabe glanced at Bang, then at Ai Shi beside him.I felt uncomfortable, but I could only sigh. "This is a member of the Winged Tiger Clan, his name is Ding Xiao. This is our village chief, and this is his eldest son, named Bang. And..."

Before Nabe could introduce her, the blond beauty first introduced herself: "I am Bang's unmarried partner, and my name is Ai Shi. It's a pleasure to meet you." After finishing speaking, she politely smiled beautifully.

Although I don't know the reason, but after getting along these few days, Na Yi, a naive guy, will always talk to himself about how annoying this Ai Shi is.If you always laugh at him, you will know how to eat it.At first I thought they were bad friends or something, but now it seems that this is not the case.

For people in this world, Ding Xiao can easily see clearly.The man named Bang kept his eyes on Nabe.Nabe, on the other hand, preferred to look elsewhere.This Ai Shi looks very elegant and calm, but his eyes always inadvertently glance at Bang, and then there will be resentment in his eyes.It seems that this is a bloody triangle relationship! "Hello. My partner and I are here at the beach this time and I'm sorry to bother you."

Village head Gao had a very good impression of such a polite half-orc. "I heard that you exchanged a lot of animal meat with Nabe and the others. We should be grateful for taking care of our people. Lovely child, where is your partner?"

Ding Xiao replied: "He was picking up prey by the river in the forest. If you don't mind, you can tell me something first. Of course, today's lunch was made by Nabe and I. If you do me a favor, it will be us It's an honor." In any case, getting along with Nabe and the others these days has been pleasant and comfortable, and they can be regarded as good ordinary friends.Therefore, you must not be ashamed of being polite to your friends' clansmen.

Gao nodded with satisfaction.To be honest, although he is not a foodie, the smell of their food is really attractive.It's no wonder that the little guy Nayi is working so hard to catch fish. "Then I really want to try Nabe's new craft. You are a kind child, and you are willing to teach foreigners how to eat delicious food."

Ding Xiao complained in his heart: That's because there is no difficulty!Besides, I don’t want to tell you who will buy my sauce! "Our team leader said that as a wise man, he has an obligation to spread good things to every tribe. A wise man does not distinguish between clans and regions. Making delicious things is my favorite thing, and I am willing to share this matter with friends to share."

wise man?When Gao heard the two words, he immediately raised his eyebrows. "Son, what do you mean, you have a keel badge?"

Ding Xiao pulled out the jade badge from his clothes: "Yes. It was given to me and my partner by our patriarch a few years ago." Theoretically speaking, with this identity, the village chief of the Tianyu clan would not Are you suspicious?He could still tell that the middle-aged village chief was very wary of him.Speaking so politely speaks for itself.To eliminate the vigilance of such a person, it is estimated that delicious food and a few more prey will not work.
