This Is My Primitive Tribe-Chapter 126 - 105: Leader Xuan is a Good Person

After Jiang Xuan returned to the tribe, he first told Chi Shao, Gou Teng, and others about the Rock Sheep Tribe, then began preparing for the trade goods.

This time, the trade mainly involves using Divine Mushrooms, pottery, and salt to exchange for the Rock Sheep Tribe’s insect wax.

Besides Divine Mushrooms, the Vine Tribe has no shortage of pottery and salt; they’re even quite abundant.

This is because the raw materials for these two items are very plentiful, the processing methods are relatively simple, and they only consume manpower and time.

For tribe members, the least scarce resources are manpower and time.

Jiang Xuan has already instructed some tribe members who are not strong in combat to start learning pottery firing and salt boiling.

Soon, Jiang Xuan brought the prepared Divine Mushrooms, pottery, and salt to the forest beside Stone Mountain.

At this moment, the warriors of the Rock Sheep Tribe in the forest were waiting anxiously.

They always sat on the backs of the rock sheep, not moving a single step away. If there were any signs of trouble, they would quickly mount the rock sheep and flee.

They are currently carrying a large amount of insect wax, and must guard against the Vine Tribe directly seizing it.

They would rather not trade than take any risks.

This is what the tribe’s witch told Hong Yan, and Hong Yan kept it in mind.

Although Hong Yan was very curious about what the Vine Tribe was like, he didn’t dare to venture inside, so he could only wait here.

If they could trade smoothly a few times, both parties could establish preliminary trust and understanding, then they could enter the tribe for further trading.

"Chief Hong Yan, sorry to keep you waiting!"

Finally, Jiang Xuan arrived with goods and hundreds of warriors.

Hong Yan was astonished to see that the warriors of the Vine Tribe wore beast hide clothing that was very good, their weapons were also excellent, and many wore large pendants made from beast teeth.

Compared to the Vine Tribe’s warriors, the warriors of the Rock Sheep Tribe seemed relatively underdressed, with rather worn beast hides and outdated weapons.

Internally, Hong Yan was once again convinced that the Vine Tribe was a prosperous tribe, and he felt somewhat envious.

"Hahaha, Chief Xuan, did you bring all the goods?"

"Yes, Chief Hong Yan, please take a look."

Jiang Xuan gestured to the warriors behind him.

Shi Qiu, along with several warriors, brought a large heap of pottery and salt packed in pottery jars to Hong Yan, showing them to him.

Hong Yan got down from the ram’s back, but the other Rock Sheep Tribe warriors still sat on the rock sheep, remaining vigilant.

Hong Yan first looked at the pottery, which included pottery jars, bowls, pots, bottles, basins, and the most important, the cooking pottery cauldron.

The surfaces of all the pottery were decorated with elaborate designs, some simple flowers and plants, others fierce beasts, all very beautiful.

Hong Yan turned a pottery jar upside down and saw the Totem Pattern of the Vine Tribe engraved at the bottom.

Not only this pottery jar, but all the pottery had the Vine Tribe’s Totem Pattern at the bottom, a mark indicating the pottery was produced by the Vine Tribe.

It also served as a promotional method, allowing others who saw the mark on the pottery to know that these were goods produced by the Vine Tribe.

Hong Yan then looked at the pottery jar containing salt, and was astonished to find that the Vine Tribe’s salt had very good color and purity.

In the past, the Rock Sheep Tribe would also trade for salt with other tribes, but it was usually very dark and contained a lot of impurities.

However, the Vine Tribe’s salt was only a light red color, very clean without any impurities.

Hong Yan took some salt from the pottery jar and put it in his mouth.

Immediately, Hong Yan’s eyes lit up!

He discovered that the Vine Tribe’s salt had a clean salty taste without a hint of bitterness.

Jiang Xuan laughed, "Chief Hong Yan, how do you find the taste of our Vine Tribe’s salt?" freewebnøvel.coɱ

Hong Yan gave a thumbs up and said, "Good salt!"

Jiang Xuan then pointed to the pottery, "Our Vine Tribe’s pottery is not inferior to that of other tribes, right?"

Hong Yan honestly said, "It’s indeed very good, even better than the pottery we traded with other tribes before."

Hong Yan also asked, "Chief Xuan, what about the Divine Mushrooms?"

Divine Mushrooms are one of the crucial reasons for coming to trade with the Vine Tribe, because the Rock Sheep Tribe’s witch urgently needed them.

Jiang Xuan took a small Beast Hide Bag from his waist and said, "Here it is!"

He opened the small Beast Hide Bag and took out a fist-sized red Divine Mushroom, which was already completely dried.

Hong Yan had seen the Divine Mushroom once before, so upon seeing it again, he was visibly excited.

"Chief Xuan, let’s start trading then."

Hong Yan signaled to the warriors behind him, and seven or eight warriors from the Rock Sheep Tribe got down from their rock sheep, each holding a Beast Hide Bag.

They opened their Beast Hide Bags, revealing two bags of insect wax, as well as some good stones, beast bones, beast teeth, beast hides, and other items.

Hong Yan pointed at one bag of insect wax, "Chief Xuan, this is the insect wax agreed by our witch for trading with the Divine Mushrooms."

Jiang Xuan stepped forward to examine the whole bag of insect wax, finding no issues with quantity or quality, nodded, handed over the Divine Mushrooms to Hong Yan, and carried away a bag of insect wax.

"Chief Xuan, wait..." Hong Yan called out to Jiang Xuan.

"What’s the matter?" Jiang Xuan looked back at him.

Hong Yan rubbed his hands and said embarrassingly, "Could you...return that Beast Hide Bag to us..."

Such a large Beast Hide Bag wasn’t easy to make and was quite valuable, and Hong Yan hesitated to give it to the Vine Tribe.

Simply put, the Rock Sheep Tribe was too poor.

"No problem."

Jiang Xuan didn’t intend to take advantage of them, so he had Vine Tribe warriors run back and brought a few Beast Hide Bags over.

First, he poured the traded insect wax into a Vine Tribe Beast Hide Bag, then returned the Rock Sheep Tribe’s Beast Hide Bag to Hong Yan.

"Thank you, Chief Xuan."

Hong Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and his impression of Jiang Xuan and the Vine Tribe improved considerably.

Hong Yan took the Divine Mushroom from the small Beast Hide Bag and carefully placed it into his own Beast Hide Bag, stubbornly returning the small Beast Hide Bag to Jiang Xuan.

It’s the remaining pride of a poor tribe.

Jiang Xuan accepted the Beast Hide Bag, "Then let’s proceed to trade other items."

Jiang Xuan pointed to a jar of salt, "Chief Hong Yan, this jar of salt, along with the jar, for another bag of insect wax, what do you think?"

For most tribes, salt was a very valuable item. The Vine Tribe’s jar of salt weighed about ten pounds, not to mention the exquisite pottery jar itself.

Thus, Hong Yan delightedly said, "That’s great, trading with Chief Xuan is truly straightforward!"

Jiang Xuan handed the jar of salt to Hong Yan, then took another bag of insect wax, returning the Beast Hide Bag containing insect wax to Hong Yan.

Then, Hong Yan traded those good stones, beast hides, beast bones, beast teeth for one pottery cauldron, two pottery jars, and a pottery bowl from the Vine Tribe.

When the trade was completed, both parties were very satisfied, and Hong Yan’s positive impression of Jiang Xuan grew even more.

"Chief Hong Yan, wouldn’t you like to visit our Vine Tribe?"

"Not this time, maybe next time."

"Alright then, we won’t force you, Chief Hong Yan. Here’s some smoked meat from our tribe, take it along your journey."

Jiang Xuan handed a small bag of dried meat to Hong Yan.

"This...I’m not sure if I should..."

"Take it, and we hope you’ll trade with us again next time."

"Okay, thank you, Chief Xuan, we will certainly return next time!"

...

The Rock Sheep Tribe members left, and the Vine Tribe members returned as well.

On the way back, Hong Yan took out a piece of dried meat, put it in his mouth, and after chewing for a moment, his eyes widened.

"Salty...it’s salty..."

Hong Yan finally realized that the dried meat Jiang Xuan gave him was salted.

Hong Yan sighed, "Chief Xuan is really a good person, it’s a pleasure dealing with him!"

The other warriors of the Rock Sheep Tribe nodded in agreement, for the Vine Tribe people also handed them some dried fruit, so each of them had some.

A day later, Hong Yan and his party returned to the Rock Sheep Tribe, and their successful return brought cheers from the tribe, as they finally had pottery cauldrons and jars to cook meat with.

Moreover, they now had precious salt to eat.

The Rock Sheep Tribe’s witch was even more excited; he sliced the Divine Mushroom and chewed it bit by bit, swallowing.

Before long, his eyes became hazy as he saw the stone cave covered with grass, countless rock sheep happily running and grazing in the meadows.

He also saw some magical plants and strange animals flying around in the sky.

Finally, he saw a giant rock sheep.

"Sheep God, I’m finally seeing the Sheep God again, boo hoo hoo..."

The witch of the Rock Sheep Tribe began to cry, tears streaming down his face.

The tribe’s Totem God had long been gone, even the Totem Spirit had dispersed, and as a witch, it was the most painful thing because no matter how much he prayed, he couldn’t get a response from the god.

Now, with the help of the Divine Mushroom, he finally saw the tribe’s Totem God, which was an immense psychological comfort to him.
