Chapter 159: Chapter 124 Beaver Tribe
Once they entered the Mountain Turtle Tribe, Jiang Xuan and the others were warmly welcomed.
During the meal, Shan Jia specially prepared mushroom barbeque, and the flavor was exceptionally delicious.
Shan Jia also noticed the Old Witch, because the totem pattern on his face was clearly different from those of the Vine Tribe.
"Which tribe is this elderly gentleman from?"
The Old Witch replied, "Eastern Wilderness, Eagle Tribe."
"East... Eastern Wilderness... that’s really far!"
Shan Jia had no knowledge of the Eagle Tribe and didn’t know it was a large tribe. He was merely curious about the Eastern Wilderness and asked the Old Witch, who answered his questions.
After the meal, Jiang Xuan asked, "Do you know where the Crow Tribe went in the end?"
Shan Jia replied, "I sent warriors to track them. They migrated to the place where the Mosquito Tribe used to live. Now, I estimate they’ve completed building their homes."
"The place where the Mosquito Tribe used to live?"
Jiang Xuan was very surprised. He never expected that two tribes that had enmity with the Vine Tribe would successively covet that territory. Maybe it was fate.
Jiang Xuan pondered, once the Vine Tribe grew stronger, whether they could send the Vine God once more to completely eliminate the Crow Tribe, which could also be revenge for the Deer Tribe.
Jiang Xuan laughed, "Leader Shan Jia, maybe in the future we can cooperate to jointly attack the Crow Tribe."
Shan Jia thought for a moment, then said, "No problem, when the time comes, our Mountain Turtle Tribe will definitely contribute!"
"Great, then we hope that day comes soon!"
After reaching a simple consensus, their relationship seemed to improve, and they continued eating, drinking, and having a merry conversation.
After they were full and satisfied, it was time to discuss serious matters.
"Leader Shan Jia, just like before, we would like to trade for some magic mushrooms that can enhance warrior strength."
Shan Jia asked, "There’s no problem with trading, but I want to see what goods Leader Xuan has brought."
Between tribes, bartering can be quite complicated, requiring both sides to have mutually needed goods.
If one side brings goods the other doesn’t want, the trade cannot be completed.
Jiang Xuan said, "The goods we brought this time, Leader Shan Jia will surely love. However, this trade must be kept confidential, so not too many people can know."
"Oh? It needs to be confidential?"
"That’s right. If Leader Shan Jia can’t ensure confidentiality, we might have to abandon the trade."
Shan Jia was curious to see what good things Jiang Xuan had brought, so he ordered all the other warriors to leave the room.
Jiang Xuan also gestured for everyone to leave, including the Old Witch, and the room was left with only him and Shan Jia.
The flames in the fire pit crackled as Jiang Xuan and Shan Jia sat beside it, creating a somewhat mysterious atmosphere.
"Leader Xuan, can you tell me now?"
Jiang Xuan nodded and took a small pottery jar from his beast hide bag, handing it to Shan Jia, "Leader Shan Jia, please take a look first."
"What is this?"
With curiosity, Shan Jia opened the jar and saw a container full of light red salt, with relatively large crystals that were as beautiful as crystals.
Shan Jia’s eyes widened immediately, "This... could this be...?"
Jiang Xuan smiled, "Leader Shan Jia can taste it."
In the Mountain Turtle Tribe, Shan Jia wasn’t worried about Jiang Xuan poisoning him, so he nodded.
With excitement, Shan Jia pinched a small piece of light red salt and put it into his mouth.
The salty flavor spread in his mouth, purer than any salt he had ever tasted!
"Salt, good salt!"
Shan Jia looked at the small jar in delight, never having imagined that the Vine Tribe would possess such quality salt.
"Is it only this small jar?" Shan Jia asked again.
Jiang Xuan shook his head, "No, we brought a large jar! That’s also why I asked Leader Shan Jia to keep it secret; the salt is too precious."
"Rest assured, Leader Xuan, we will certainly keep it secret. Where is the salt? We can begin the trade immediately."
"Don’t rush, Leader Shan Jia. Besides the salt, we also brought other goods."
"What goods?" Shan Jia anticipated more surprises.
Jiang Xuan didn’t answer directly but instead asked, "Leader Shan Jia, what do you think of this pottery jar that holds the salt?"
Upon hearing Jiang Xuan’s question, Shan Jia picked up the small pottery jar and examined it carefully, discovering a lot of patterns on it that were very beautiful.
Moreover, the bottom of the small pottery jar had the Vine Tribe’s totem pattern.
Shan Jia wasn’t foolish. He immediately guessed that the pottery jar was made by the Vine Tribe.
"Leader Xuan, the goods you’re talking about aren’t pottery, are they?"
Jiang Xuan smiled and nodded, "Indeed, it’s pottery."
"Our Vine Tribe has pottery cauldrons, pottery jars, pottery basins, pottery bottles, pottery plates, pottery bowls, pottery cups... surely we have pottery that your tribe will like."
Shan Jia was stunned; he never expected that the Vine Tribe produced so much pottery.
"Leader Xuan, is your Vine Tribe a mid-sized tribe?"
In Shan Jia’s understanding, small tribes couldn’t possibly possess so many things.
Jiang Xuan said, "We are still a small tribe now, but I believe we will become a mid-sized tribe in the future."
Had someone else said this, Shan Jia likely would have sneered, for he knew very well how difficult it was to become a mid-sized tribe.
The Mountain Turtle Tribe had been established here for many years and possessed various magic mushrooms, yet at its peak, the population never exceeded a thousand.
To become a mid-sized tribe, a population of at least five thousand was required, which was exceedingly difficult.
