Jiang Xuan and Wu Yu entered the bamboo house and sat down by the hearth.
In Jiang Xuan’s bamboo house, there were so tree stumps, which served as tables and stools, and were very large.
Wu Yu, like Jiang Xuan, sat on a tree stump stool padded with beast hide, feeling a bit unnatural.
Most tribe mbers were still living without tables and stools.
They would put sothing on the ground and then sit cross-legged.
Only the witch of the tribe was different.
Because witches needed to write and draw, lying on the ground wasn’t very convenient, so they were accustod to using a tree stump or a reasonably flat piece of wood as a table.
However, Jiang Xuan’s house had a set of tables and stools, which was very unique and unlike any other tribe.
"Co, Chief Wu Yu, have so dried fruits first."
Jiang Xuan took out so roasted wild dry fruits and placed them on the table.
These dried fruits were seeds of various wild fruits, roasted so you could peel and eat them, and they tasted quite good.
Wu Yu studied Jiang Xuan’s house, his gaze lingering on the pottery cauldron and various ceramic wares with carved patterns. He said with a hint of surprise, "Chief Xuan, the pottery made by your Vine Tribe is looking prettier and prettier."
"Haha, our tribe mbers, when they’re free, love to ss around with these things. Do it often enough, and naturally, they gain experience and make them look good."
Wu Yu complinted once again.
The two of them ate so dried fruits, then so cooked at, and then they got to the main topic.
"Chief Wu Yu, did you bring any good items this ti?"
ntioning the goods, Wu Yu’s face instantly brimd with confidence.
"Of course, our Black Teeth Tribe has plenty of good stuff."
"Did you bring seeds like the red crystal rice ones?"
Jiang Xuan was most interested in seeds, and he knew that only teams like the Black Teeth Tribe’s traveling crew, which flew around all the ti, could collect seeds from various places.
"Indeed we did."
Wu Yu said, "This ti we’ve brought so excellent seeds."
In fact, the Black Teeth Tribe’s traveling crew didn’t have much interest in seeds before, because few tribes needed them.
rchants chase profits, and primitive rchants are no different; they don’t bring items nobody wants.
But since Jiang Xuan traded red crystal rice with them, Wu Yu would collect so when he encountered good seeds, though not in large quantities.
When he ca across tribes with a foundation for planting or large tribes, Wu Yu would also try to sell the seeds he’d collected, and sotis managed to sell so.
"Let take a look."
"No need, I’ll have the warriors bring them here."
Wu Yu had great potential as a rchant; he even had the foresight for service awareness.
It’s important to know that other tribes, during trading, still had a mindset of ’take it or leave it, if you don’t trade, I’ll just take it by force.’
Jiang Xuan internally exclaid: A talent indeed!
If he didn’t know the Black Teeth Tribe was large and wealthy, Jiang Xuan would even want to recruit Wu Yu.
Unfortunately, in this world, because of the presence of the Totem God, people in tribes generally have firm beliefs, unless the tribe is destroyed or due to so extre reasons, they usually don’t change their beliefs or join other tribes.
Soon, the warriors from the Black Teeth Tribe carried over eight beast hide bags.
These beast hide bags not only contained plant seeds, but also items they thought the Vine Tribe might like.
These eight beast hide bags lined up in Jiang Xuan’s yard and were opened to reveal their various contents.
There were unknown seeds, spider silk clothing, salt, sugar, weapons, etc.
Wu Yu grabbed a handful of green, grain-like seeds from one of the beast hide bags.
"Chief Xuan, you’ll definitely like these seeds, they’re called bamboo wheat, and we traded them from a large tribe. They’re very tasty when cooked."
Jiang Xuan picked up a bamboo wheat seed; although it was grain-sized, it was several tis larger than a regular grain, with a green shell around it.
Even in a dried state, it was still green.
"Can I try one?"
"Of course you can." Wu Yu generously allowed.
Jiang Xuan peeled off the bamboo wheat shell and found that the inside was also erald green, semi-translucent, sowhat reminiscent of rice.
Jiang Xuan put the bamboo wheat into his mouth and bit down with a "crunch," making a crisp sound, indicating these seeds were very dry with little moisture.
Jiang Xuan chewed, and after a while, sensed a slight sweet taste.
This indicated the seeds were rich in starch and could serve as a staple food.
Jiang Xuan nodded and said, "Not bad."
Wu Yu smiled and asked, "Chief Xuan, do you want to trade for these bamboo wheat seeds?"
"Let’s look at the others first."
Jiang Xuan didn’t imdiately agree because he knew that if he showed urgency in wanting bamboo wheat, Wu Yu, this sly rchant, would definitely seize the chance to raise the price.
On the contrary, if he acted indifferent, then Wu Yu wouldn’t dare set too high a price, for fear Jiang Xuan would give up on the trade.
Although Wu Yu had so business acun, facing Jiang Xuan, who was shaped by the shopping wave, taking advantage wasn’t easy.
Wu Yu was a bit taken aback, evidently not expecting Jiang Xuan’s reaction.
Nevertheless, he wasn’t discouraged and soon introduced other seeds to Jiang Xuan.
Wu Yu picked up a small bag of granular, reddish-brown seeds and said to Jiang Xuan, "These are red vegetable seeds."
"When the red vegetable grows, it stands over half a person high, much like a small tree. Its leaves, roots, stems, flowers, all can be eaten, with a slightly sweet taste."
