Chapter 387: The Joyous Gathering and the Salt Initiative About to Start

Several dark, round clay pots have now become the most precious possessions in their tribe, and everyone regards them with reverence.

These pots can make food more durable and help survive the harsh cold of winter.

Feeling elated, the Cao Geng tribe imagines the preciousness of these items and the tribe that seems to have come specifically to rescue them, and their mood becomes even more joyful.

But a shadow falls over their joy when they think about the wolves and deer that have made them what they are.

"These guys, they better not show up this year!"

Rooting around the land that deer and wolves once injured, Cao Geng fiercely contemplates.

While Cao Geng and a few others express gratitude to the dark tribe, they also grit their teeth, awaiting the reappearance of the deer and wolves. They do not know that the tribe that brought them salvation during crucial times is now heading towards the Green Sparrow tribe with furs exchanged from their tribe and others.

They don't know how they'd feel knowing that the very deer they are planning against, which belongs to a tribe so powerful and prosperous that it brought them salvation, is considered untouchable.

Regardless of how Cao Geng feels, the mood of the Donkey tribe leader and its people is very good.

They carry large quantities of fur in the mildly warm spring breeze.

These furs were exchanged for minimal pottery and salt, but the Green Sparrow tribe could also exchange them for more pottery and some food.

The Donkey tribe people treat these furs exceptionally preciously because they can make their lives better.

The leader of the Donkey tribe and its people bear many red marks and scars on their faces and hands, left by the ice and snow of the approaching end of winter.

But the people of the Donkey tribe don't mind too much; sometimes, they even take pride in these scars and marks because they represent their harvest.

When deeply immersed in something, they often produce something more accomplished.

For example, the Donkey tribe leader, who focuses entirely on this primitive trade, is now setting out with his people. They have faced many hardships this time during the journey, but the harvest is still very satisfying.

Today, the Donkey tribe leader, along with his tribe, is headed not only to continue trading furs for pottery with the Green Sparrow tribe but also to attend the joyous gathering.

According to tradition, this year's gathering was supposed to be held at the Bone tribe, but since the Bone tribe no longer exists and most of its people have joined the Green Sparrow tribe, after discussions among several tribes, this year's gathering will still take place at the Green Sparrow tribe.

In this regard, the leader of the Donkey tribe had no objections. After all, the Green Sparrow tribe has now become the most powerful and wealthy tribe among several tribes, so it's only natural for them to host the gathering.

Moreover, if the Green Sparrow tribe holds the gathering, they can also enjoy free food for a few days...

The leader of the Sheep tribe also set out with his people, carrying some furs to exchange for more exquisite pottery.

The leader of the Green tribe, as carefree as ever, was more than willing to join the gathering at the Green Sparrow tribe.

A free meal, what could be more beautiful?

And that big-bottomed spouse of the tribe leader... hehehe...

While the other two tribes had just set out, the leader of the Green tribe, who had already covered more than half of the journey, was rubbing his hands and laughing.

His mood became even more pleasant as he laughed and glanced at the two spouses who had accompanied him.

Because after the last gathering, each of these spouses gave birth to a boy for him.

The two boys are now able to run on the ground, healthy and strong, and seem unlikely to die prematurely.

In a few more years, their tribe will gain two strong adult males again.

So, this time, he decided to exchange words with the leader of that tribe during the gathering.

Who knows, maybe by this year, his two spouses will give birth to two more healthy babies...

The people of the Green Sparrow tribe have already prepared for the upcoming gathering.

According to Han Cheng's idea, this gathering shouldn't be held again this time.

Firstly, as someone from a future era, he still isn't quite accustomed to this.

Secondly, now that the Green Sparrow tribe has completely absorbed the Bone tribe and has three women who originally belonged to the Flying Snake tribe, it doesn't matter much whom they choose as partners.

However, the shaman is not very willing; he fears this might cause the tribe to suffer.

After thinking about it, Han Cheng didn't insist further. After all, changing customs takes time, and he happened to have something to announce while the people of the other three tribes were gathered.

That thing is the Salt Plan, which has been going on for a long time.

Now that the Green Sparrow tribe has completely absorbed the Bone tribe, internal stability has been achieved, and large land areas have been cultivated. Soon, they will plant millet on a large scale, and there will be plenty of food to harvest in the autumn.

Now, it's time to start showing their strength again and gradually absorb the surrounding tribes into their embrace.

After all, as more things appear, the division of labor within the Green Sparrow tribe is becoming more detailed, and the need for people is also increasing.

Nowadays, the manpower is a bit tight.

The people of the Green Sparrow tribe unanimously agree to stop providing salt for free to the surrounding tribes.

For the people of the Green Sparrow tribe, who have become accustomed to exchanging their pottery for other things, it's uncomfortable to give away the salt they've worked so hard to produce to other tribes for nothing.

Especially the dark Donkey tribe, which has been taking more and more salt from the tribe over the past year, almost more than their tribe uses.
