293 Decay
In ancient times, it usually only took about three hundred years for a dynasty to go from prosperity to decay. This was true for almost every dynasty.
From the beginning, when the dynasty was first established, the king was ambitious and wanted to create a lasting legacy. He did everything vigorously and resolutely. The entire dynasty developed rapidly and gradually moved towards a prosperous age.
Then, various shortcomings slowly emerged, and the ruling class seemed to have collectively lost their minds, committing suicide in various ways, until they committed suicide.
Eventually, a new dynasty emerged and once again repeated the old path of prosperity and decay. Every dynasty seemed unable to escape this curse.
So, would tribes in ancient times be like this?
In fact, there are already signs of this in the Taihua tribe. However, the Nanhua where Zhao Hao is located is a new territory created by the Ji Zhou family who worked hard. They are equivalent to the initial stage of a dynasty, so there are no signs of decay yet.
.
The territory of the great leader of the Taihua tribe is different. Here, it has been passed down for hundreds or even thousands of years, and various signs of decay have slowly appeared.
Just like the Luobei elder territory, which is adjacent to Nanhua.
At first, Zhao Hao didn't feel anything because there was no human habitation on the north bank of Luoshui.
After four days, they finally saw traces of farmland after traveling for more than 500 miles through the hilly basin overgrown with weeds.
That night, the Grand Elder of Nanhua took the initiative to invite Zhao Hao and Ji Rushuang into his tent, and said rather awkwardly: "Haotian, have you prepared any gifts for the elders in the territories along the way?"
Zhao Hao nodded without hesitation: "I have prepared some, but I just don't know if they are suitable."
Grand Elder Nanhua then asked: "What have you prepared?"
Zhao Hao counted the treasures and said: "Meat and leather goods, pottery and ironware, horses and carriages, knives, coins, coins, etc., Zhennan Fort has them, I have prepared some of them, as well as the meat of exotic animals, close to the existence of mythical beasts, if necessary.
You can give some away.”
The great elder of Nanhua nodded slightly, and then said solemnly: "You may not know the preferences of these people. How about you bring out some prepared gifts, plus mine, and we will give them to you in the name of the whole of Nanhua.
Send them together?"
Zhao Hao really didn't know the preferences of these people. He nodded again without hesitation: "Great Elder, what do you think we need to give?"
The Great Elder Nanhua thought about it for a while, and then murmured: "Forget about ordinary meat, they don't lack these, and they don't need too many leather goods. An ordinary elder like Luo Bei can just pick a few exquisite ones."
As for ironware, it’s not necessary. The pottery from your Haotian collar is pretty good, so you can send some. Carriages and horses are the best, but it’s not advisable to send too many. Just send a carriage and a few horses. Knives
As for coins and dimes, they are more exquisite, so you can give more. By the way, guess what they lack most?"
Zhao Hao thought for a while, then estimated: "They probably lack the most exotic beasts and existences close to divine beasts."
Elder Nanhua nodded slowly and said: "Yes, they are short of this, and this is also their favorite. This time, I also prepared some exotic animal meat, but it is far behind compared to yours. Yes.
No, I have one thousand kilograms of exotic animal meat. How about you, Kui beef, four different beasts, and saber-toothed tiger meat, one hundred kilograms each?" :(/
This is just a trivial matter, Zhao Hao still nodded without hesitation: "No problem, just give me whatever you think is appropriate."
Early the next morning, Grand Elder Nanhua took Zhao Hao and Ji Rushuang to prepare gifts. After he picked out the things, he packed them all in exquisite wooden boxes. After loading almost a car, he ordered his men to look at them.
The older guard who went up, led a few people, drove two carriages and a few horses, left the large team and ran wildly eastward.
Zhao Hao finally noticed that the elder Nanhua picked out things that looked good, such as deerskin or beautiful pottery bowls.
At first, he thought that the wooden boxes brought by Elder Nanhua contained some precious gifts. After a long time, he found that they were almost all these fancy things. It can be said that except for horses and exotic animal meat, there was basically nothing else.
use.
Does an elder like these fancy things?
Not to mention, people just like these.
Less than three days after Grand Elder Nan Hua sent someone to deliver the things, people actually followed the person who delivered the things to meet him.
