When Pan Geng moved to Yin, I initiated Jian Shang

Chapter 162: People from Yingqiu and Qifang came from across the sea
After seeing the Flying Insect Tribe and continuing south, we can see more and more tribes along the way.

Many small tribes saw Shi Wu and others passing by and immediately made a vigilant gesture.

Weapons are ready, and everyone is watching eagerly, for fear that this group of people is coming to plunder.

"There are too many people around here, right?"

A little guy behind Shi Wu who was wearing a hakama and had a piece of wood hanging on his body and was sweating all over frowned.

Shi Wu would turn around and say to the complaining little guy: "Bird eggs. Stop being nosy and nonsense and keep going south."

As a member of the cavalry, Niao Dan was also one of the ten young men whom Xin Qu asked Xing Xingchun to train before. After the last mountain fire, Niao Dan, as a ranger in Changping City, has been responsible for the Xin family's control of all strongholds in the city. One of the two people contacted.

But this time, Xinqu was worried that there were too many coastal tribes and they might be in danger, so he temporarily sent an additional bird egg as a flag commander.

If there is an emergency, Bird Egg can also return to contact You Xin.

However, it is obvious that as the river gets closer and closer to the sea, the water flow becomes less and less. Many tribes guard the water source they can control day and night, for fear of being snatched away.

As Xin's cavalry headed south quickly, they were forced to trample directly on the river, which attracted a pair of angry and helpless eyes.

After all, to be able to make ten golden-armored warriors appear on their own, there must be support from a large tribe behind them.

The other party was just passing by and trampling on the trickling water. It was not to rob their water source. At most, it was just unpleasant to watch. There was no need to break out a conflict.

Shi Wu could only restrain his subordinates and complete their mission as soon as possible.

However, by noon, we arrived at the mouth of the sea.

Fortunately, the large clan with more than a thousand people did not appear nearby, which barely made them breathe a sigh of relief.

"There! There are a lot of bamboo and wooden stakes on the tidal flat. If you pull out the stakes, you can take out the cloth inside. Our batch can be put directly on them." Qingyan ran to the middle of the tidal flat on horseback and jumped down. , pull up the pile.He took out the cloth wrapped underneath.

There is the fishy smell of the sea.

Shi Wu dismounted and walked up to take a look at Qing Yan, who was busy: "Wait a minute, these...are they the original linen cloth?"

"?"

Qingyan lowered his head when he heard this. There was a piece of cloth on the rock of his left foot, which was exposed to the sun.

He reached out to pick it up, touched it a little, and shook his head: "No, the density of this thread should be that of the cloth in the south."

"south?"

"Yes, the south...well, yes, the pores of the cloth in the south are wider, especially those in Dongyi and Huaiyi. They are the same as summer all year round, and it is steaming, and you may not be able to see it in winter. Snow.

Therefore, when weaving clothes, the hemp is more casual, as long as it can cover the body.

Strange, how come there is Dongyi cloth here, and it is so big? "

Qingyan scratched his head, and then said: "Forget it, don't think about it anymore, quickly pick up these linen cloths, and then put them on the rocks over there to expose them to the sun. Probably after they are folded, the water will not leak out, so tie them up immediately. Get up and take it away.

Let Qu handle it later, otherwise the current salt will taste bitter and astringent, and may even be poisonous. "

Qing Yan said hello, and Shi Wu and the others immediately got busy.

After working for more than half an hour, the linen soaked in sea water has been spread out on the beach.

Under the combined effect of the sea breeze and the sun, they simply ate and slept.

Then wait for dusk to arrive.

In the afternoon, work rotation.

Shi Wu yawned and looked for Qingyan's location.

They found him squatting on the rocks, scraping his hands back and forth on the linen cloth. When he lifted them up, his hands were full of fine sand and salt crystals. Shi Wu was a little surprised and said, "So this is how salt comes out?" Qing Yan raised his head. , handed a handful and said: "This is called raw salt. Try it. The taste of the sea is unspeakable."

Shi Wu just put a little bit on his tongue and immediately started sipping.

"Haha! Look! If you want to turn it into the green salt that is commonly eaten by our tribe or commonly used by other tribes, it is very rare. Qu knows the technology. But I heard from him that it couldn't be popularized before because the salt needs to be boiled and filtering, especially when there is no way to grind soy milk. If you can grind soy milk, you can quickly get salt by adding brine. "

Qingyan murmured that he had also heard many introductions from Xin Qu, but he had never seen how complicated the specific execution was.

All I know is that when the salt was first made, Xin Liguang spent a lot of money just to make filtering equipment, and then he worked on the current salt cloth method little by little.

The salt cloth is semi-dried in the sun and can be folded without leaking, so it can be easily carried away. After returning to the tribe, a new round of deep processing can be carried out, which can also prevent the secrets from being leaked, which is a good compromise.

"Okay, you should go eat something and take a rest. If the sun is almost done, we will turn back."

"Okay." Qingyan stood up with a smile, and after a while, smoke rose.

Shi Wu sat on the reef, looking at the endless sea and the texture of the sun falling in front of him. That kind of mysterious feeling, combined with the sea that stretched to the sky and the earth, made his heart ripple.

Until, on the sea, a little black shadow appeared.

Getting closer!

"It's a human! Someone has come ashore!"

The eggs were on the coast. When he came to the beach for the first time, he was picking up shells. He wanted to go back and give them to his sisters, so that they could see the remains of the beautiful scenery.

As I was picking it up, I suddenly saw a group of people driving "double-row parallel sailed canoes", nearly forty in front and back, stranded on the tidal flat, and getting closer!
It was still a clan emblem that I had never seen before, and a man with teeth and claws.

"Wow—"

Birds flew by and seagulls were frightened. This group of people who came from nowhere were approaching Xin's team.

Shi Wu and the others quickly packed up the salt cloth and set up defenses, watching the group of people warily.

"Everyone, everyone, I am from Yingqiu Qifang! Qifang! You should have heard of our name!"

Several middle-aged men approached, without carrying any weapons, and shouted loudly in the language of Dayi Shang: "Are you a subordinate tribe of Dayi Shang? So are we! We are here to trade, we have no other ideas! Please believe us!"

Shi Wu looked at this group of people: there were only sixteen bronze warriors, fourteen leather armors, more than 30 warriors without armor but with weapons, and the remaining twenty were chained, probably slaves.

Eight or ninety people approached and looked at them.

"Which tribe are you from?" The middle-aged man at the head saw that the Xin family was just on guard and had no intention of taking action, so he hurried forward, "Guzhu family? Or are you subordinate to Master Zilian? Can you understand what the Dayi merchants said? ? Or I use the language of the Guzhu clan..."

This guy chirped again in Guzhu's language.

This time, Shi Wu understood.

"We are from the Youxin clan." The woman Shi Wu married was from a minor noble family of the Guzhu clan. He also learned the Guzhu clan's language, so he could understand it.

Upon hearing this, the guy was obviously stunned: "Is there a Xin family? Wait, who has a Xin family? Aren't you in Henan? Why did you end up in Hebei?
No...the armor on your body was obviously struck with a tripod. Those in Henan have the Xin family, and their lives are not so tight...

Forget it, never mind.Where is your tribal base?I want to trade with you!

We need lots of skins!Can you provide it?If so, I can sell you the shell coins, slaves, and bronze armor I brought, as well as the three thousand kilograms of bronze here! "

　Yingqiu Qi State, the Shang Dynasty has already appeared.

　　Later, Jiang Taigong Lu Shang was granted the title of Marquis of Qi, and he used the ancient Qi Kingdom as the country's title.

　　Therefore, it is normal for a neat square to appear.
