Searching for food through the beast world

trading day begins

After returning from Joan's tent, Ding Xiao let out a long sigh.The four members of my family are all old men, how would they know how much a woman's hairpin should sell for?

never mind.Make a compromise for yourself, twenty is fine.Although he still thought it was quite a lot, he didn't want to consult those aunts and aunts in the same village.In case people like it, should I give it or not.The key point is that this is not the fruit of his own labor, he will never take things from friends as favors.Sell ​​it day by day.If twenty bei is too expensive, it doesn't matter if the price is lowered the next day.Materials don't cost money.

After dark, Ding Xiaotuan tossed and turned in the animal skin quilt several times without falling asleep.Hearing that there was no sound outside, he quietly poked his head out of the tent, and sure enough, Kun hadn't turned into a big tiger yet.You must know that in the past few days, he has become used to the big tiger grunting evenly when it is sleeping.The sound was not too loud, and he didn't think it affected his sleep. Instead, he took it as a lullaby. "Kun, why don't you rest?"

Kun turned his head, saw Xiaoxiao getting out of the tent, smiled and touched the top of Ding Xiao's head: "I'm wondering if I can make the fishing net bigger, so that I can catch more at a time. If we are male, it will be very difficult to pull." A large net of fish does not feel heavy."

Ding Xiao scratched the tip of his nose: "Oh, yes, but the number of fish is limited. The more fish you catch at one time, the fewer fish will be in the river. It takes time for fish to grow so big. It’s too big, what if there will be no more fish in the river in the future?” It doesn’t matter for a day or two, but it’s not important for a year or two.

Kun nodded: "I've been thinking about this too. With the size of your mesh, it seems that you can only catch big fish. Wouldn't the small fish be let go?"

Ding Xiao held his chin: "Of course it's true, but it takes years and months for a fish to grow so big."

Kun thought about it for a while: "You said to dig a big pond by the side of the village, just like the diversion ditch and the walled river you think, to draw the river water in, catch some fish and put them in it, so that we don't have to rely on it all." There are no more fish in the river. The number of fish in the river will not decrease. Anyway, fish cannot be used as a staple food, and they are eaten occasionally. But the orcs of the Lynx, Violent, and Snake tribes especially like to eat fish. But The water source where they live is relatively shallow and there are not many big fish, if we have a lot of fish, we can exchange dried fish for a lot of things with them in the spring and summer markets."

Ding Xiao looked at Kun, and suddenly felt that this big guy was really smart.A fish pond is naturally the best way.In this era when the animal husbandry industry has not yet had a big sign, it is quite remarkable that he can think of this from the diversion ditches and walled rivers he asked him to make.At first, I felt that I had done too many things, and I will talk about all kinds of breeding and planting after I have settled down.Well now, there is prodigy Kun's own brain research and development! "Your idea is really good, you can definitely give it a try! By the way, what special things do other tribes have that we don't have?"

Brother Kun is naturally answering questions: "Boycats and Nine-Tails can make linen. But Nine-Tails make thicker ones, and Lynxes are softer. Bears can communicate with bees. , they can get a lot of honey from the bees, they don’t have to be like us, it’s very difficult to get honey. Although the bees are small, they are very difficult to deal with. The people of the Serpent tribe are the best at collecting phobias, the slime spit out by phobias It is very sticky and can stick to many things. Therefore, the houses of the Jiaosnake people are the strongest. And..."

Ding Xiao finally fell asleep during Kun's narration.

As a result, in his dream, Ding Xiao dreamed that not only did he make silk that was softer and more comfortable than the linen cloth of the Lynx tribe, but he also dreamed that he had placed thousands of beehives in Aomori, and raised a large group that was more expensive than the Violent bear tribe. Honey bees can produce a lot of honey every day.Linlin said all kinds of things, in the dream he put his hands on his hips and laughed.Thinking that I was swimming back and forth in the ocean of RMB, and finally changed all the money into TVs, computers, refrigerators, etc., and other modern daily necessities.As a result, the lights I bought back were all bad, and they couldn't light at all...

Dreams are always messy with no rules to follow.It's just that Kun was lying outside Ding Xiao's tent, listening to the little guy's soft laughter in his sleep, and felt extraordinarily comfortable.

Maybe the priest is right, smiling can really help the clansmen live a better life.And what Xiaoxiao said that day that you can see what can be eaten, he remembered it in his heart.But no matter what, I will be with Xiaoxiao, no matter where he comes from or what ability he has, as long as he is happy and happy.

Everyone got up very early the next day.One male was left to guard the camp, and the rest, led by He, walked into the enclosure with their own goods on their backs.

Said to be the wall, the height of the wall is only about one meter.In fact, it is used to distinguish between the trading area and the accommodation area between the tribes.There are not many large beasts around here. You must know that although the market here is only four times a year, every time there are too many orcs gathering, noisy hunting, etc., the beasts living near the wall have the concept of staying away from here.Occasionally, some small animals that disdain to be captured by the orcs will scurry around.Of course, occasionally there may be beasts that want to feed on the orcs.

The wall is actually built with thick and large wooden piles.Some of the stakes have taken root and sprouted on the periphery, so every little distance, there are one or two stump trees that have grown their canopies. In summer, people who set up stalls under those trees must be very happy.

The stall area of ​​the Winged Tiger Clan is in the north, and Ding Xiao's stall is next to his father's stall. Kun said the place is small, but in fact it is as wide as one meter.His things don't take up too much space, so he set aside half to put his more expensive animal skins.Kun's stall is next to Ding Xiao's, and most of the items on it are rare animal skins, and half of them are bamboo tubes with covers.

Ding Xiao has learned that the most outstanding handicraft of his tribe is pottery.Of course, this has something to do with the clay that is most suitable for making pottery near the Mavericks.In addition, because the "combat power" of the Yihu clan is very high, they can capture some very large beasts, so every winter market, there will be a lot of people from other tribes who come to the Yihu clan to buy animal skins.

On the first day of setting up a stall, Ding Xiao was looking forward to it.It's a pity that there are not many people coming and going in the morning.

Kun sat on the ground, turned his head and asked, "Xiaoxiao, do you want to go shopping?"

Ding Xiao looked at the stall: "I really want to go. But don't you need to watch?"

Kun stood up and came behind Joan: "Uncle Joan, I'll go shopping with a smile on my face. I should be able to see a lot of good things on the first morning. Maybe it can be cheaper."

Joan nodded: "Well, you go. You can take this bag here, Xiaoxiao has never used it, and I am relieved if you look at it."

Watching Kun take over an animal skin bag, there should be a lot of shells inside.I was a little tangled in my heart.When I went shopping by myself, my father took the money, but Kun kept it.This made me really feel like I was being treated as a child!But... well, I really have no idea how much everything here is worth, so don't take it if you don't want it, it's not for me to spend it.

The place inside the wall is very large, and this huge gathering is different from the only big gathering he has ever attended in his previous life.If it is a large-scale commodity distribution center, he can believe it more.

The layout of the booth is a round shape around the wall, and there is an empty field without a booth in the middle.I heard from Kun that it was the bonfire stage on the last day of the awards ceremony, and there would be many single orcs dancing in this empty field that night.Recalling the only bonfire banquet he had attended, and thinking of the "dancing posture" of those strong men, Ding Xiao smiled unkindly.

The things on each stall are very rich. In comparison, the things on my small stall seem very thin.Especially when he passed by the booth area of ​​the Golden Lion Clan and saw more gold and silver jewelry, he lost confidence in his works.Is twenty be too much?Then go back and sell ten shells.

Brother Kun didn't think of Ding Xiao's entangled thoughts at all.As he walked, he introduced to Xiaoxiao what this thing was and what that thing was.In the eyes of other villagers, he is not at all talkative and cherishes words like gold.Ding Xiao was indeed attracted by Kun's various introductions.This is the first time he has absorbed the knowledge of the orc world in large quantities.Although it is just a variety of commodities that can be traded and various objects that can be used, they are the most important part of life after all.

In the past few months of living in Tianhe Village, eating and drinking surrounded Ding Xiao the most.Until he discovered that he had a pair of heavenly eyes that could explore the edibility of various objects, it was even more inseparable from food.However, it is impossible for every world to have nothing but food.For example, he saw many foreigners selling dried herbs.Some of them are types that I have never seen in the medicine racks and boxes of the sacrificial priests, but the eyes of the sky have faithfully shown their medicinal properties.

Ding Xiao saw a big bag of black pepper when looking at these herbs.Without the introduction of the stall owner of the Lingque tribe, Tianyan accurately displayed the properties of this bag of black pepper.Hot in nature and pungent in taste, it can warm the middle and relieve pain, lower Qi and eliminate phlegm.In fact, Ding Xiao didn't pay much attention to these medicinal properties.You know it's black pepper, how can you not remind him of black pepper beef?So he grabbed Kun's sleeve, motioned the big guy to bow his head, and then whispered something to Brother Kun.

Although Brother Kun didn't know why Xiaoxiao bought this black pepper bean at all, but seeing Xiaoxiao swallowing for a moment, he knew that this thing was definitely edible.But yes, this thing looks a lot like Chinese prickly ash, and medicinal materials are meant to be put into the mouth, so why can't they be eaten.But it looks like it should be seasoning.I don't know what kind of delicious food I can make for my precious companion.So as many betas as he wants. "How do you sell this black pepper bean?"

The stall owner is an adult male of the Lingque tribe, who looks a little older than Kun, anyway, Xiaoxiao has no way to tell the age of the people here by their appearance. "It costs two shells for a jar like this." He pointed to the clay pot beside the animal skin bag.Ding Xiao made a judgment. It should be similar to an ordinary water glass, but it's a pity that it was the one he used in his previous life.To be honest, it's still quite small, but if it's two years old, it shouldn't be too much based on my own knowledge, right?

Brother Kun stared at the stall owner blankly for a while, and when he was staring at the stall owner, he suddenly said: "How much do you want?"

The stall owner was suddenly excited.Although black pepper beans are medicinal materials, they are bought by the priests of various tribes because they are medicinal materials. Usually, one or two cans are enough for one person, and this thing is not only available to their Lingque clan.In fact, his big bag is not sold out every year.As a result, someone asked for everything on the first day of this year? "Then two cans of three shellfish."

Brother Kun shook his head: "One bag, thirty shellfish. There is no shortage. There is no need to measure."

The stall owner twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, but still readily agreed.Anyway, he has moved the black pepper tree to his own yard for several years. He was born to raise it and it is his own. It is not bad to sell it all at once.Thirty Bei is a little less, but it seems to be about the same.

What is the concept of thirty shellfish?As long as Ding Xiao saw that the small purse brought by his father was a little deflated, he would feel distressed.But looking at the bag of black pepper that Brother Kun was holding in his hand, he felt better again.Make black pepper beef tonight!Live alive!

It is impossible to visit the winter market in one day, so when Brother Kun negotiated with a bobcat half-orc to exchange ten long-tailed rabbit skins and one barefoot cow skin for two small bundles of linen at his booth, They took the lynx half-orc male companion back to their stall.

When Joan saw the sackcloth, without saying a word, she took out ten long-tailed rabbit skins, and the whole skin of the barefoot cow was provided by Brother Kun.It's not that Joan doesn't have it here, but Brother Kun insists on it. Joan understands what Kun means, so she doesn't stop her much.Anyway...he always felt that Xiaoxiao had become more and more dependent on Kun...

Seeing the male orcs of the Lynx tribe happily carrying such a large pile of animal skins away, Ding Xiao sighed: "It must not be easy to weave so much cloth."

Joan said: "Although I don't know how they weave, it must be very difficult. But you see, the males of the Lynx tribe are much thinner than the males of our Maverick tribe and other beast tribes. They can't do it alone. To hunt more large beasts. And the long-tailed rabbits are only rabbits in Aomori, and they are quite difficult to catch. The fur is thick and soft, and they are used to make clothes in winter to keep warm. And these sackcloths are only available in summer. It will be much more expensive, but in winter they just want to trade it for winter fur."

Looking at the male orc from the Lynx family who is also more than 1.9 meters tall and has obvious muscular arms, Ding Xiao expressed extreme resentment towards Abba's "much thinner".Then he is not a human being! ! ! !But when he turned his head and saw Kun's eyes staring at him, he was immediately speechless.Compared with this big guy, isn't it very "skinny".But what does that look mean? !Are you laughing at me for having no meat? !

"Smile, the bobcats live on the mountain, not as good as our Tianhe Village." Brother Kun said suddenly.

Ding Xiao was stunned for a moment, why did this big guy bewilderment: "Of course I know that our Tianhe Village is good! Why do you say this?"

Kun continued: "Their males are not as strong as me!"

The corner of Ding Xiao's mouth twitched: "I know this very well. What do you want to express?"

Kun nodded in satisfaction.It seems that Xiaoxiao just hasn't seen the males of the bobcat clan, and doesn't like that kind of small man.Hehe, Xiaoxiao still knows that she is strong!Very good! "I'm hungry." Ding Xiao almost fell to the ground.What's the matter with this inconsistency in the foreword?Do you want to eat right away because you are stronger than other bobcat males?The amount of help!
