Chapter 913 The news about that unknown tribe (two in one)
Not only the older primitive women were surprised, but the rest of the tribe where the older primitive women belonged were also surprised when they understood the meaning.
Shouldn't such a huge cave that is very comfortable to live in grow out of the ground on its own?
How could humans be able to build such a huge cave?
The impact of these words was much greater than if these strange people suddenly rushed out and surrounded them all.
Mao thought they didn't understand, so he scratched his head and continued to express himself in different ways, which was quite troublesome.
Mao feels that this group of external primitive people is the most difficult group he has encountered in recent years to communicate with.
After expressing themselves in various ways for a while, and after being exhausted and even sweating a little, the older primitive woman who recovered from the extreme shock finally began to respond.
After being guided by Mao, the two communicated for a while, and Han Cheng and the others roughly understood some of the processes that led these people to discover and live here.
Han Cheng nodded secretly, this was pretty much what he had imagined.
After knowing this, Han Cheng asked some people to go to the slave cabin, take out the two clay pots and the gourd containing salt soil, and ask them to ask them about the clay pots and salt soil. This is what Han Cheng is most concerned about.
thing.
I saw that the extremely precious pottery that my tribe had spent a lot of food to exchange from those people was just picked up casually by these people with one hand and placed on the ground without seeming to care at all, including the older ones.
Everyone, including the original female, felt extremely distressed.
Especially after seeing those delicious and equally precious white things being poured into the hands of the man casually, these people felt their whole hearts twitching.
If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't beat them, and because these people were holding weapons made of dazzling things, the older primitive women would definitely jump up and fight these guys fiercely, making them
You know how precious these things are.
¥¥
The older primitive woman, who was twitching with distress, looked at the two clay pots that were darkened by smoke and fire for a while, and the gourd in her hand, and began to deal with them in her own way.
Mao said something about the origins of these two things.
The precious pottery and delicious white things were exchanged from other tribes and were not owned by themselves, so the older primitive women spoke without any hesitation.
She was even worried that the weird person in front of her wouldn't understand what she meant, so she racked her brains and expressed it several times.
Of course, another reason for doing this is that she is worried that if she doesn't speak well enough, these people will take away the arranged pottery and delicious food and never return them.
Once something like this happens, the older primitive women can't even imagine what will happen next. For them, this is really a disaster.
In exchange for it from another tribe?
After hearing what Mao said, Han Cheng couldn't help but muttered, and he became more and more interesting about this.
Things in the world never proceed simultaneously, and there are many gaps even between people.
As for countries and regions at the same time, the differences are just as big.
Even when later generations were so developed and the whole world was about to become a global village, primitive people still existed.
Before Han Cheng traveled through time, he had read the news about a missionary from the United States who wanted to go to an island in the Indian Ocean to convert primitive people, but was tied to a rope by the primitive people and dragged to death.
In that era, the gap was still so huge. In today's situation where information is extremely limited, it is not surprising at all to encounter some relatively advanced civilizations.
Han Cheng found it interesting at this time, and it made sense. After all, from the time he came to the present, there are tribes that have both salt and pottery, two important things for the development of civilization. In addition to their own tribe, there are also some tribes that have obtained these two things through their tribe.
Apart from the Eastern and Western tribes, I have never encountered any others.
Now, here, he suddenly learned about a tribe that possesses both and is very likely to be able to produce and manufacture these two things just like their tribe. As a person from later generations, of course he is more interested.
Moreover, that tribe already knows how to exchange these two things for living materials, which shows that the other tribe's level of civilization has surpassed all the tribes Han Cheng has encountered so far.
Ask her if she knows where that tribe is.
After Han Cheng thought about this for a while, he opened his mouth and said to Mao.
So Mao continued to dance.
Where is that tribe?
After the older primitive woman understood the meaning conveyed by the trade house, she shook her head.
She and the people in their tribe really don't know where that tribe is.
When trading with that tribe, it was the people from that tribe who brought precious pottery and the like.
Sometimes they come once a year, sometimes they come twice, and sometimes they don't come even once.
Their tribe would only conduct some trade with those people when they came to their own tribe, exchanging food for their precious pottery and delicious white things.
People from their own tribe have never been to the tribe with a large amount of pottery.
This is the same as before when my tribe sent out trading teams, bringing salt and pottery to trade with people from other tribes in exchange for furs, food and other things.
After hearing what Mao conveyed, Han Cheng thought in his heart.
I gained a new understanding of that tribe’s situation.
Maybe it could be another situation.
Han Cheng turned his attention to Mao, who was standing not far from him, acting as a translator.
At the beginning, before Mao's tribe encountered the Tengshe tribe, there were Erdao traders. They exchanged things like pottery and salt from their own tribe, and then went to other tribes to trade.
In other words, the tribe trading with the tribe in front of you may also be a second-tier dealer.
If this is really the case
Han Cheng sniffed. The civilization level of the unknown tribe seemed to be higher than he had previously expected.
After all, there is a big difference between one tribe directly trading with other tribes and one of them having an Erdao dealer trading with other tribes.
Generally speaking, tribes with second-tier traders have a higher level of development than tribes without second-tier traders.
Mao, you can ask them again and see if you can get more information about that tribe.
Han Cheng said to Trade.
At first, Han Cheng thought that the pottery and salt soil in the room were made by the people of the tribe in front of him.
They had the ability to make pottery and knew where salt soil existed.
At that time, his focus was on the salty soil.
I want to see if I can find salt soil resources nearby, and then I can refine and produce table salt here.
After all, if this is the case, they will be able to transport less salt from the main tribe here in the future, reducing some of the transportation burden.
But as he learned more and more about the situation, Han Cheng's thoughts gradually changed, and his focus shifted from the previous salt soil resources to the unknown person who had salt soil resources and was able to make pottery by himself.
of the tribe.
After hearing what Han Cheng said, Mao immediately began to convey Han Cheng's meaning to the older primitive women.
After this exchange, the older primitive women became more familiar with these expressions of trade, so they understood them more and more smoothly.
It didn't take long for the older primitive women to understand the meaning of trade.
After understanding what Mao meant, she thought for a moment and cast her eyes on the bronze weapon on top of the vine shield held by the person next to Mao, and then began to dance to express her meaning to Mao.
This time, Han Cheng, who was standing aside, basically understood the meaning of some primitive women without the need for translation.
After understanding what the primitive woman meant, Han Cheng's heart became less peaceful than on the surface.
He suppressed his thoughts and waited for Mao to finish talking to the older primitive woman and translate for him.
After all, the older primitive woman just pointed at the vine shield, and he couldn't tell clearly whether the other party was pointing to the vine shield or the bronze thorns mounted on the vine shield.
There is a huge gap between the vine shield and the bronze thorn.
While Han Cheng was waiting, Mao ended the conversation with the older primitive woman and began to summarize and translate to Han Cheng what he had learned from the previous conversation.
She said that that tribe had weapons made of bronze that looked different from the weapons of our tribe, but they were also made of this material.
As soon as Mao's words came out of his mouth, Han Cheng's heart skipped a beat.
The rest of the Qingque tribe, who surrounded the older primitive women with bronze weapons, also became surprised.
Because until now, bronze weapons are the patent of their tribe.
Except for their own tribe, they had never seen or heard of any tribe possessing weapons made of bronze.
Moreover, they all have a deep understanding of the usefulness of bronze weapons and tools.
If the Son of God hadn't led his tribe and others to smelt bronze and use the smelted bronze to make various weapons and tools, his tribe would never have developed to the extent it is today.
Not to mention the rest, the cultivated land of the tribe alone is at least half less than it is now.
But now, they have received news that there is another tribe that also possesses bronze weapons.
How could this not surprise them.
My own tribe has bronze tools because it has the Son of God. That unknown tribe actually also has bronze tools. Could it be that
Could it be that their tribe also has a son of God who is as smart and wise as his own tribe?
They, who are not familiar with the family history of the Qingque tribe, should not think about this matter.
After Han Cheng learned the news, he couldn't help but fell silent.
Compared to everyone in the tribe, he gained more from such a piece of news and thought more.
Coming from later generations, he clearly understood the meaning of bronze.
It is a symbol of a stage of human civilization, a product of getting rid of the Stone Age and moving closer.
For this unknown tribe, even though Han Cheng had already been mentally prepared for its level of civilization before, the news he heard at this moment was still far beyond his previous expectations.
When he returned from Jinguan City this year and learned that the Blackstone Tribe had meteorite that was more useful than bronze, Han Cheng was not as excited or in a mood as he is now.
Because meteorite and bronze represent two completely different pieces of information.
Although meteorite iron far exceeds bronze in various properties, meteorite iron is not manufactured by humans, but occurs naturally.
It is a resource that is not controlled by humans and can be artificially produced.
If a tribe can have these, it can only be said that their tribe is very lucky, but this does not mean anything.
But bronze is completely different. Bronze does not occur naturally, but requires people to smelt it before it appears.
Its appearance means that the tribe has mastered the bronze smelting technology.
Regardless of whether the technology is mature or not, this is a qualitative leap!
A tribe that possesses both bronze pottery and salt soil is far more powerful than a tribe that possesses meteorite iron.
Because what bronze represents is a kind of civilization.
Being able to have these tribes will definitely surpass other tribes at the same time.
From stone tools to bronze, this is really a qualitative leap.
Even Han Cheng, a person from later generations, understands that the development of the world is unbalanced, but after hearing the news here, he still couldn't help but feel a little complicated.
It can even be described as vibration.
In this basin surrounded by mountains, there is also a tribe with bronze.
Now that my tribe has arrived in this basin and is planning to build a branch tribe and take root here, the situation is a bit tricky.
Generally speaking, nothing good will happen when two civilizations of a similar level meet. When there is contact between the two and there is no third party around, some friction is bound to occur.
For example, the battle between the Yandi tribe and the Huangdi tribe, or the battle between the Yanhuang Alliance and the Chiyou tribe, can all be seen.
The fact that these people in front of them can come here from their tribes to live here means that their tribes are not particularly far away from here.
And that tribe can bring salt earth pottery and other things to trade with the people of this tribe, which means that tribe is not particularly far from here!
After all, transportation is inconvenient now, and everyone basically relies on their own two legs to walk.
