Chapter 224: Chapter 151 Rabbit Tribe_2
But now, in order to get salt, apart from trading with the Vine Tribe, there’s no better option.
The Rabbit Tribe Witch said, "Exchanging two pieces of small premium stone for this salt isn’t bad. It’s much better than when we traded with the Wasp Tribe."
Premium stone is quite rare and is mostly buried deep underground. Even if there are some scattered on the surface, they are mostly picked up by tribespeople to craft stone tools.
But the Rabbit Tribe, thanks to having giant rabbits that are particularly good at digging, can more easily obtain those deep-buried premium stones.
Previously, when they traded premium stones for salt with the Wasp Tribe, they often got ripped off badly. But there was no other way since only the Wasp Tribe in the vicinity could trade salt.
Now that the Wasp Tribe is gone, they found the Vine Tribe, and judging from the first trading process, the Vine Tribe is much more generous than the Wasp Tribe.
Ju Ya asked, "Witch, should we take more premium stones to the Vine Tribe to trade for salt?"
The Rabbit Tribe Witch unhesitatingly said, "Yes, go quickly and trade some salt back. The people in the tribe haven’t had salt for a long time, this can’t continue."
The Rabbit Tribe leader said, "As Ju Ya just mentioned, apart from salt, the Vine Tribe also has ceramics. It would be best to trade a few back; our tribe’s ceramics can no longer be used."
Unlike iron tools, ceramics are brittle; over time, being bumped and knocked is unavoidable, and when they crack too much, they become unusable.
The Rabbit Tribe has not obtained ceramics for a long time. Taking this opportunity, they want to trade back some new ceramics.
The leader and the witch discussed together, deciding on what to watch for when going to the Vine Tribe and the items to be traded.
The next morning, the Rabbit Tribe leader led more than eighty warriors including Ju Ya, carrying premium stones, and riding giant rabbits to the Vine Tribe for the trade.
Along the way, they had to endure the open air meals and exposure to the elements, and encountered various dangers.
Fortunately, those giant rabbits have excellent hearing and can run fast, plus the many warriors of the Rabbit Tribe, making the journey thrilling yet safe.
Five days later, they finally arrived on the outskirts of the second residence of the Vine Tribe.
"Is this the Vine Tribe? There don’t seem to be many people."
The Rabbit Tribe leader observed from a distance and found that the Vine Tribe wasn’t as powerful as he had imagined.
Ju Ya said, "Leader, climb up the tree and look across the river."
So, the Rabbit Tribe leader climbed to the top of a tree, where he saw the real Vine Tribe!
A gigantic Stone Mountain entwined with a thick and terrifying Divine Vine, lush with foliage, glittering brilliantly under the sunlight.
In front of the Stone Mountain, rows and rows of tidy houses spread all over, with large fields and ponds clearly visible, very spectacular.
The Rabbit Tribe leader was dumbfounded, for the Vine Tribe’s territory even extended across a river!
This, in his view, was something incredible.
He finally believed that the Vine Tribe was very strong, able to produce both salt and ceramics, two wonderful things.
The Rabbit Tribe leader looked for a long time before climbing down from the tree. By this time, his mindset had shifted slightly, unconsciously considering the Vine Tribe as a medium-sized tribe.
Because he had never seen such a small tribe.
The Rabbit Tribe leader continued to advance with his people, quickly getting spotted by the Vine Tribe’s Guard Team.
Fearing misunderstandings, Ju Ya stepped forward and shouted, "We are from the Rabbit Tribe, who traded with you a few days ago!"
Sure enough, after Ju Ya shouted, the Vine Tribe’s Guard Team became less tense.
Cang Er rode a Great Horned Deer to the front, glanced over the Rabbit Tribe’s group, and then asked Ju Ya, "Are you here for trade again?"
Ju Ya nodded, "Yes, we came specifically to trade."
Ju Ya pointed to the leader, "This is our tribe leader."
"Alright, please wait a moment."
Cang Er immediately sent someone into the tribe to invite Jiang Xuan, while still remaining wary of the Rabbit Tribe people because they outnumbered Guard Team Two.
At this moment, Jiang Xuan was observing the new crops traded from the Black Teeth Tribe’s expedition team in the fields.
In this year’s trade with the Black Teeth Tribe, Jiang Xuan acquired three new crops: bamboo wheat, red cabbage, and snake gourd.
Currently, with the warmer weather, bamboo wheat has already been planted, sprouted, and has grown seedlings.
"It really is like bamboo."
Jiang Xuan squatted on the ground, looking at the newly grown bamboo wheat seedlings, noticing their leaves resemble bamboo leaves, and their stems also look like bamboo, but just smaller.
He even worriedly wondered if the so-called bamboo wheat was fake seeds.
However, he quickly dismissed the thought. Black Teeth Tribe’s expedition team indeed charged high prices, but they had never sold fake goods.
Such things as disguising fake seeds as good probably won’t happen for now, as the profit from selling seeds isn’t high.
But if in the future, all tribes develop agriculture, causing the demand for seeds to skyrocket and their value to rise, that’s when fake seed selling might emerge.
"Leader, leader, people from the Rabbit Tribe have come, a lot of them."
Just then, a warrior shouted as he ran over.
"Oh? They’ve come so soon. Let’s go, have a look."
Jiang Xuan’s spirits lifted, and he stood up immediately, heading towards the Feiyu River.
Tang Yuan had gone out foraging today, and Jiang Xuan also didn’t want to frighten the people from the Rabbit Tribe again.
At Feiyu River, warriors from the Fishing Team took him across by small boat, then to the second residence to meet those Rabbit Tribe people.
When Jiang Xuan arrived, Ju Ya greeted him from afar.
"Leader Xuan, we’ve arrived."
"Haha, welcome, welcome."
Jiang Xuan walked up to the warriors of the Rabbit Tribe, immediately noticing the Rabbit Tribe leader with four warrior horizontal lines on his face.
"Leader of the Vine Tribe, Xuan."
"Leader of the Rabbit Tribe, Shan Feng."
Jiang Xuan smiled and said, "Leader Shan Feng, didn’t expect you to come so quickly."
"No choice but to come quickly, there isn’t much salt left in the tribe."
Shan Feng smiled wryly. In truth, the Rabbit Tribe’s salt wasn’t just running low, it was gone.
"Haha, the salt matter is easy to handle. You’ve come all this way, surely it was exhausting. Why not come inside our Vine Tribe, rest a bit, and have something to eat?"
Jiang Xuan warmly invited them to the houses within the Vine Tribe.
However, out of caution, Shan Feng declined this invitation.
"Leader Xuan, no need for the trouble. The people in the tribe are still waiting for us. We need to head back as soon as we complete the trade."
Jiang Xuan didn’t insist, "Alright then, I’ll arrange for the trade goods right away."
Under Jiang Xuan’s instruction, Cang Er immediately led people to find Chi Shao and brought some salt and ceramics over from the warehouse on the other side.
Jiang Xuan took the opportunity to chat with Shan Feng casually, easing the unfamiliarity for future trades.
Soon after, Chi Shao personally brought several bags of salt, along with two Pottery Cauldrons, several Pottery Jars and Bowls, and pottery basins.
Alongside him was Nan Xing, leading the first Guard Team of the Vine Tribe.
"Witch!"
The warriors from the Vine Tribe stationed there saluted Chi Shao as they saw him, showing utmost respect.
Shan Feng looked at Chi Shao in astonishment, realizing that the Vine Tribe’s witch and leader were just so young.
However, he didn’t dare to stare.
Staring at someone else’s witch for too long is considered bad behavior and might be disliked by the Vine Tribe warriors.
Despite their youth, Shan Feng acknowledged Jiang Xuan and Chi Shao’s strength.
For as Jiang Xuan casually chatted with him just now, seemingly bored, he picked up a stone and effortlessly crushed it with his bare hands.
Shan Feng knew well that if that stone were in his hand, crushing it wouldn’t be easy.
A strange Vine Tribe, a formidable Vine Tribe.
"Leader Shan Feng, the salt and ceramics are all here, please take a look."
Jiang Xuan opened one of the bags of salt and placed them next to the various ceramics, inviting Shan Feng to inspect them.
Seeing so many good things, Shan Feng’s eyes lit up; the Vine Tribe was unbelievably wealthy!
He cast aside all precautions, walking straight to the salt and ceramics, examining each item.
He first looked at the salt, as this was the most critical.
The salt was pale red, tasted outstanding, looked appealing, and contained no impurities like sand or dirt, very pure.
Unlike the small bags of salt previously, this time, the Vine Tribe brought out a large bag of salt, heavy and hefty, and Shan Feng also noticed several such Beast Hide Bags behind Jiang Xuan.
Shan Feng exclaimed again: The Vine Tribe is extraordinarily rich!
