Going through ancient farming to engage in infrastructure construction

Chapter 167 Chapter 167
Seeing her seriousness, Yan Yu could only nod her head.

Mu Feng took the sheepskin and followed him to the place where stall fee was paid.

The Mubas lifted the bamboo baskets down, took off the rack, led the ox to tie it to a tree stump, and put some hay there, where the ox grazing docilely.

Seeing the docile look of the scalper, several people walked over to touch the scalper.

Dayang hurriedly stopped several people, "They are eating food, don't touch them, they will get angry."

"Okay, we won't touch it." Several people stopped Dayang and asked how to raise the scalper?
Yao Xiaoqing looked at the tribes who set up stalls on both sides, and couldn't wait to see if those people had collected rice.

She said hello to Muba, and took the golden retriever to the market.

After looking at a dozen stalls in a row, I only saw animal skins, dried meat, millet, and beans.

Perhaps because of the drought, not many tribes came to the market. In about half an hour, I saw all the stalls.

Yao Xiaoqing walked back disappointed, and saw everyone put the bamboo baskets aside and stood behind the bamboo baskets, and Dayang was busy making a fire.

"These people don't even know how to set up a stall!" Yao Xiaoqing went over with a smile, and removed the grass covering the pumpkin, revealing a bright yellow pumpkin.

The people who stood watching the scalpers rushed to the bamboo baskets, looking at the pumpkins curiously.

Someone reached out and touched it cautiously, "It's such a big one, what kind of food is it?"

Yao Xiaoqing smiled, "Pumpkin can be eaten boiled, or cooked with corn, or pancakes."

The man scratched his head, "Pumpkin! It's obviously yellow, why isn't it called cucumber!"

Yao Xiaoqing, "..."

The leader of the ram came over, "From the Yaoshan tribe, how did you change the pumpkin?"

Yao Xiaoqing enthusiastically stepped forward and picked up a pumpkin, "One pumpkin is exchanged for the jerky of three sheep. If you have rare food, you can exchange it."

A person next to him sneered and said, "If you want to exchange a pumpkin for the jerky of three sheep, you are probably crazy!"

After hearing this, Muba was unhappy, "What are you talking about? Let me tell you, our Qingwu has already reduced the number of exchanges."

"We originally planned to exchange the dried meat of ten sheep for one pumpkin! You are not willing, but some people are willing!"

The man smiled and said, "Brother, I'm afraid you are talking in your sleep!"

Muba turned his nostrils to the sky, "Don't rush to ask for it later."

The leader of the ram looked at Yao Xiaoqing, "Are you a witch from the Yaoshan tribe?"

Yao Xiaoqing nodded, "Yes! Which tribe do you belong to?"

Gongyang smiled and said, "I am the leader of the antelope tribe, Gongyang. I want to ask, you, your pumpkin, why are you worth the jerky of three sheep?"

"It turned out to be the leader of the ram. My father said you are a good person."

Gongyang nodded happily, "Are you Yaohu's daughter?"

"Yes!" Yao Xiaoqing smiled politely, "My pumpkin can not only be eaten, but also can be used as seeds. A lot of seeds can be harvested from a pumpkin. If it is planted in spring, if it is managed properly, a pumpkin seedling can be harvested. Eight or nine pumpkins. The harvested pumpkin seeds can cover the entire mountain next spring, do you think it is worth it?"

The ram imagined the scene of a mountain full of pumpkins, shook his head and sighed, "Things are good things, but the difficulty is that we don't know how to grow them!"

Yao Xiaoqing said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will teach you how to plant. As long as you plant according to my instructions, you will have a good harvest."

A person next to him said, "From the Yaoshan tribe, can you open one for us to see what kind of pumpkin seeds are?"

"Okay!" Yao Xiaoqing nodded cheerfully, "I'll cut one and show it to everyone."

Muba carried a smaller pumpkin out, split it in half with a machete, pointed to the pumpkin seeds inside and said, "Look, it's full of seeds. I'll exchange you three sheep's jerky, not many!"

The onlookers suddenly realized, "Oh! It turns out that the seeds inside are used."

Muba Le said: "Could it be possible, you want to plant the whole plant!"

Everyone laughed.

The ram nodded with a smile, "There are quite a lot of seeds!"

At this time, Yan Yu came back with Mu Feng, and saw the pumpkins in the bamboo basket, "Qing Wu, the Da Wu tribe wants all these pumpkins."

The onlookers who were still hesitant saw that Yan Yu wanted all of them, so he hurriedly grabbed a pumpkin from the bamboo basket and hugged it in his arms, "We want to change it too."

The leader of the ram held one in each hand, "I'll exchange two."

Someone shouted outside: "From the Yaoshan tribe, leave a few for us!"

Yao Xiaoqing thought for a while and looked at Yan Yu, "The seeds from a basket of pumpkins are enough for the Dawu tribe, and the rest will be exchanged for other tribes. What do you think?"

"Okay!" Yan Yu responded readily, "You count it, I'll get the jerky."

Yao Xiaoqing pointed to the bamboo basket, "Don't count, there are 42 pumpkins in one basket."

Yan Yu smiled and nodded, "Help me carry it in, and carry the jerky out by the way."

"Okay, brother, Uncle Dashi, send the pumpkin in."

Dashi, Mufeng and Yanyu carried the pumpkin away together.

Gong Yang said to Yao Xiaoqing, "I'll get the dried meat, and keep my two pumpkins for me."

Yao Xiaoqing, "You take it, and bring me the jerky."

"Okay, I'll bring it to you when I get back." The ram happily hugged the pumpkin and squeezed out.

"Let's see, what are you doing surrounded by so many people?" A short and stocky man squeezed in with two people.

When everyone saw him, it was as if they saw a wolf. They put down the pumpkins, turned around and left, not daring to come over from a distance.

"You!" Dashi and Muba stood up a few times, glaring at the three of them, "Go, we won't give you anything in exchange."

You looked at several people contemptuously, "Hey! Let me see, several wild dogs from the Lingque Tribe, the Sishan Tribe, and the Yaoshan Tribe are all together. Hahaha!"

"Fight!" Muba stepped forward and punched without saying a word.

You was beaten so hard that he took a few steps back, staring at his eyes, his nose was sore and sore, tears came out mixed with nosebleeds.He hurriedly covered his nose, pointed at several people viciously, "You wait for me." After speaking, he turned and left.

Several people shouted: "Wait and wait."

Seeing that something was wrong, the patrolling warriors of the Dawu Tribe rushed to find Yan Yu.

Halfway there, he was stopped by Pheasant and Kun, and Kun scolded: "You don't do your job well, what are you doing running around?"

The warrior pointed to Yao Xiaoqing and the others, "Those people are Yan Yu's friends. They had a fight with You from the Giant Bear Tribe. I went to You to call someone."

Kun waved his hand, "I see, you go back to work, I'll go back and tell Yan Yu."

The warrior replied: "Yes."

Kun raised his head triumphantly, "Come on, let's drive away the patrolling people and hide to watch the fun!"

Gong Yang came over with the dried meat, saw You leading the people away, walked over and looked at the few people shaking his head, "The people of the Giant Bear Tribe are not easy to mess with, you pack up your things and go back!"
