Chapter One Thousand and Seven: The Voyage Diary of the Learned Man, the ancestral land of the Kumeya people, the Great Salt Sea rich in green salt
"Witness the Lord God! From the arid and hot Beitiaoshi Village to the humid and cold Whale Harbor, there is a vast western coast of seven thousand miles! On this west coast, there are many tribes farming, gathering, hunting and fishing.
Numerous and unique flags and totem poles are erected!... And from Beitiaoshi Village to the north, walking through the barren sand dunes and coasts of the Kochimi people, and crossing a rare green 1,200 miles, we came to
On the edge of a mighty long river, I saw vigorous vitality. It is the boundary between dry and humid precipitation on the west coast, and it is also home to the large Kumeya Ipa tribe with more than 5,000 people!…”
"At 3 degrees north latitude, the 5,000-strong Yipa Tribe is an ally of the kingdom. The support fleet, carrying 700 warriors and sailors, docked at the Yipa Tribe. Kuimu, the missionary priest of the main god, was overjoyed.
, requesting the support fleet to stay a few more days and participate in the conversion ceremony of several Kumeya warriors... To put it bluntly, Kuimu hopes to have the endorsement of the powerful warriors of the kingdom to further demonstrate the power of the kingdom!"
"Blessed by the Lord God! The missionary work in the Yipa Tribe obviously did not go so smoothly. Although the Hongshi Chief of the Yipa Tribe had already converted to the Lord God, not many of the noble chiefs and priests in the tribe had converted. On the contrary,
Ordinary tribesmen, ordinary warriors and hunters are more likely to convert to the faith of the Lord God!"
"Kui Mu, the missionary priest of the Yipa tribe, told the fleet leader Ke Yuan and Ke Jie: The main reason why the tribesmen converted was because the priests of the main god guided agriculture, significantly increased the yield of farmland, and brought and taught them how to plant.
A new crop of potatoes. The reason why warrior hunters converted was because of the Lord God’s doctrine of divine warfare. As long as you fight for God, through bravery and military exploits, you can gain glorious divine grace, obtain land and a small population, and become members of the tribe.
Chiefs and chiefs!…”
"Guide from the Lord God! After hearing this, I have a vague hunch. That is, for these large tribes on the west coast, the spread of the Lord God's faith is likely to trigger changes in the tribes... This kind of change may not be a peaceful and gentle drizzle.
It’s a sudden storm!…”
The sea breeze roared, and mist rose from the sea in the evening, as if there were traces of a storm, but it was completely elusive. Mickey, the knowledgeable man, looked solemn as he looked at the record he had written, and then looked at the calm-looking exploration captain Zuva.
Luo, asked in a low voice.
"Zuwaro, Matutumbe, the red stone chief of the Ipa tribe, was converted by us personally... At present, there are obviously some conflicts in the red stone tribe... What do you think?"
"My opinion? Well...my opinion is that when the time comes, we should capture this big tribe at the mouth of the river!..."
Exploration captain Zuvalo grinned with a meaningless expression. He looked at Mickey's frown and explained with a smile.
"Mickey, we have seen it very clearly along the way. The further south the latitude is, the better the water and soil environment is, and the larger the tribes are. And when these tribes reach a certain size, such as three thousand or five thousand people,
, there will be hereditary tribal leaders, noble chiefs, priests, chiefs and warriors!…”
"We spread the faith of the Lord God, but in fact there is nothing in itself... Uh, the Lord God forgives! I said it wrong. The spread of the Lord God's faith is to guide them on the journey of light!..."
Exploration captain Zuvalo lowered his head slightly, looked at Mickey's gentle face, and continued to smile.
"However, since we have stepped into the light, we have to face the shadows. If we can plant potatoes and increase food production, we can feed more tribesmen. With bronze axes and spears, strong bows, and strong leather armor, hunters can
And the warriors will become even more powerful. As for the belief in the main god that we introduced, it has shaken the foundation of the rule of noble chiefs and priests, and shaken the inherited tribal legends... To put it simply, tribesmen, tribal warriors, tribal noble chiefs, three pieces
The stones placed together are no longer balanced!…”
"It's like transplanting a flower that has grown in a small pot for a long time into a big pot. The root system of the flower will definitely be damaged and it will not be able to hold on to so much soil. The original root system needs time to grow.
, only by adapting can we further grow and continue to control the entire flowerpot!…”
"The Lord God bless you! But for us, why should we let the old roots control the flower pots? The priests of the Lord God need to gain more power! The kingdom also needs warriors from the tribe, and the tribesmen of the tribe need to control it.
Tribes and territories come to connect the west coast together!...So, my opinion is very simple. When the time is right and the bottom of the tribe has a belief foundation, they will dispatch warrior battalions and convert the entire Ipa tribe! This
The position of the tribe is very important, and there is also salt in the east..."
Hearing that the West Coast was connected, Mickey the Knowledgeable's heartbeat suddenly accelerated for a while. He was silent for a moment, nodded imperceptibly, and then looked at the handwritten diary again.
"The fleet stayed at the Yipa tribe for ten days, participated in several ceremonies of the main god, and replenished some potatoes, sweet potatoes, and thousands of kilograms of green salt! The fertile land by the river occupied by the Yipa tribe is indeed
It is very suitable for farming. Three to four hundred miles east of the Ipa tribe is the ancestral land of the Kumeya people, the boundless Altonea, which supports the large Salt Sea tribe of nearly ten thousand people!…”
"It is said that the hundreds of miles of tidal flats on the edge of the Great Salt Sea are sunny and rainy all year round, and there are flashing cyan and white salt grains everywhere. And bags of extremely precious salt in the North are easily available there, and there is no need to spend fuel to boil the salt.
Just find a place to dig! The salt produced there will go all the way upstream along several "long rivers" (Colorado River System) and inland, where it will be traded to the powerful Apache Alliance, Navajo Alliance, and even
Farther and farther…”
"God bless you! If the kingdom can control the tribes of Kumeya and occupy the vast Great Salt Sea, then the series of settlements in the north and south of the kingdom will no longer have to worry about salt! Not only that, by controlling this precious salt production
All the inland tribes in the upper reaches of the Great River will be affected by the kingdom... Ah! Praise the Lord God! May your glory spread to the hundreds of barbaric tribes deep in the interior!..."
"Ah! The ancestral land of the Kumeya people, the salt mines of the Great Salt Sea, and the great tribe of the Salt Sea!..."
Seeing this, exploration captain Zuvalo licked his lips and felt a sincere desire.
He worked hard, took more than a hundred people, cut down many trees, and boiled salt water for two months before collecting three to four thousand kilograms of salt. And the tribesmen of the Salt Lake tribe only needed to find
In a salt mine, you can dig a salt well and easily dig it out, which can add up to tens of thousands of kilograms! The salt dug out is large and green, and can taste some inexplicable fragrance, even a little sweet, and can be called green salt.
.And this kind of green salt, both in terms of purity and taste, is much better than the sea salt he cooked!
