When Bai Chui returned to the tribe with a batch of ceramics and copper products, the entire tribe was excited. It seemed that the Chinese tribe had not lied to themselves. Their chief was really very interested in those useless stones. The Chinese coins could indeed be used in the tribe.
Their tribe circulates and uses it. It seems that the other party has not deceived them.
The people of the Baishi tribe who were exposed to the transportation and trading during this trip spread the news in the tribe. As long as they have the currency of the Chinese tribe, they can exchange for the items they want in their city. The fastest way to get the Chinese currency is to dig next to the tribe.
White stones can be seen everywhere. As long as you get them from the Chinese tribe, you can exchange them for Chinese coins of different denominations.
Looking at the batch of exquisite ceramics and copper products brought back by the trading team, almost all the people in Baishi were jealous.
The Baishi tribe is a tribe of over a thousand people. They sit on the mountains and eat the mountains and the sea. The Baishi tribe, which is located in dense forests and deep mountains, basically relies on hunting for its usual food sources. The last leader of the tribe was killed by a ferocious beast.
With the large number of people in his clan and his good reputation in the tribe, Jiang got his wish and took the position of clan leader after defeating several competitors.
The new patriarch Bai Jiang and his brothers are not content to stay in this forest. Walking out of the forest, regaining and annexing other weak tribes is his ambition that has been accumulated for many years.
After the extremely ambitious Bai Jiang took the position of clan leader, he led his tribe many times across the gentle river to the Kotou area in the south of the Chinese tribe. Through several trades, he also exchanged a small amount of copper from them.
utensils, and learned about some situations of the Chinese tribes from some tribes who bought sea salt from the Chinese tribes, so the previous series of events
The first transaction did not encounter any obstacles, and it was successfully completed. The Baishi people's confidence in using white stones to trade items with the Chinese tribes increased. During the excavation, more and more Baishi people mined tin mines. They learned from the tribesmen who had been there.
One conclusion is that it is much more cost-effective to spend the same time and manpower to dig white rocks in exchange for food and other items than to hunt and exchange with other tribes.
The Baishi Tribe is not far from the Chinese Tribe. If you look at it from the sky, it is only about 30 kilometers away. Although the road to the Chinese Tribe is blocked by mountains and rivers, and ferocious beasts constantly attack passers-by, it is still a journey to the Chinese Tribe.
It is much more cost-effective to trade, and there are many high-walled houses that I have never seen before, and various novel and weird handicrafts. As for safety issues on the road, you only need to go together, there are more people.
, wild beasts will naturally not come out to attack passers-by.
In the days that followed, there was little need for Bai Jiang's orders. The Baishi people who could walk automatically collected tin ore, and when the clan leader's team set off, they followed him to trade in Chinatown.
After obtaining a stable and sufficient source of tin ore, all the copper-casting workshops of the Chinese tribes were operating at full capacity, and batches of plows and daily work tools such as hoes, shovels, axes and other tools were rushed out and used.
With the continuous feedback and accumulation of experience from the tribe, craftsmen who cast bronzes and priests who studied proportions and chemical reactions continued to figure out the proportions of utensils for different purposes.
After a large number of examples, feedback and operations, it took almost only one year for Hua Xi to proudly declare to this era: "The metal casting level of our tribe can surpass the United Kingdom and the United States, haha!"
During this year, Iron Wall already had a preliminary defense system. The city wall and a few simple houses formed the predecessor of Iron Wall. As for Sunset Fort, a small number of residential buildings, warehouses and city walls were built. Outside the city were large areas of sun-salted salt.
On the sand, a large number of tribesmen were secreting here, picking out sea salt and packing it, and then brought it to the transport caravan stationed in the city and handed it over to them to transport to various tribes.
A rich country does not mean a strong country, and a strong country does not have weak soldiers!
For Hua Xi, who grew up in the generation under the red flag, he naturally understands the significance of my country's modern national defense development concept. Today's tribes are indeed rich compared to other tribes, but their military strength is a bit underdeveloped compared to other tribes. China The tribe has more than enough self-preservation in the present tense, but not enough expansion power.
The war between the White Wolf Tribe and more than 30 tribal alliances in the south against the foreign tribes was continuously reported to Hua Xi's ears under the cover of Tukan's identity as Minister of Foreign Affairs.
After the defeat of the foreign invaders in the last war, the powerful tribe called Ge Tianshi came back again last month. Under this well-prepared attack, it was actually able to fight an inextricable battle with the alliance that was waiting for work. The two sides were at loggerheads for a while.
Then they confronted each other at Limuluo Mountain, seventy miles south of the alliance.
Hua Xi knows that such an endless confrontation will cause great damage to the morale and materials of both sides. The fact that Ge Tianshi can maintain sufficient food supplies far away from the tribe shows how strong they are.
According to Tukan's intelligence feedback, life for the alliance is becoming increasingly difficult. It is estimated that the battle will end before winter this year. Hua Xi agrees with Tukan's point of view. After all, in this era, cold and hunger are much more effective than any weapons and strategies.
The Getian clan, which cannot conquer the tribes in the alliance by then, must withdraw. Fighting outside in the cold winter, the serious consequences are no joke.
However, the Alliance is not feeling well at the moment. The food reserves for the winter have been almost depleted due to the war. The manpower for hunting has also been reduced and sent to the front line of Limulus Mountain due to the war. The survival of some small tribes has become even more difficult in this war.
It seems that another good opportunity for the rapid growth of our Chinese tribe has arrived. After receiving intelligence reports from Tukan one after another, Hua Xi is once again full of joy and worry about the prospects of the tribe.
Huanxi is naturally worried about how to play a role in this war to obtain the greatest benefits. As the saying goes, good fortune never comes in pairs, and misfortune and misfortune depend on each other. The greater the reward, the greater her risk will naturally be. If the operation is not good,
Or for various other objective reasons, it is normal for the boat to capsize in the gutter. In this matter, Hua Xi needs to raise his pillow and think about it carefully.
After the recent busy farming season, the tribe harvested a large amount of food and stored it in the granary of the second ring building complex of China City. According to the planning of China City, the city runs north-south, divided into four avenues, east, west, north and south, and is surrounded by the functions and status of the buildings.
Several circular areas were demarcated with roads around the central palace, the Council of Elders, the priests' ancestral temple, the square and other architectural facilities.
As the tribe's most important supplies are naturally best protected, warehouses for storing granaries, weapons, armor, ceramics, etc. are naturally built by Hua Xi in the second ring area next to the first ring palace and other buildings.
In addition to the great use of granaries, several other warehouses for storing weapons, armor and ceramics are still empty. The scarcity of ores and the low output of ceramics have led to a situation of shortage of supply within the tribe and with other tribes, which has not been solved.
There is no way, who calls this a primitive era? Personal knowledge is limited no matter how much it is. Many factors of the era still restrict the development of productivity. Just like the workload of a hook machine in one day, it is far more than the workload of a thousand people holding primitive machines.
