Chapter 133 The Sales of Shoes

But for the development of the tribe's textile industry, Li Yan still agreed.

However, he plans to arrange twenty and a half children and old people to come and make hemp thread. After all, the Jiang tribe's total population is only in the early [-]s, and less than a quarter of them are middle-aged. Those children and old people are suitable for the simple work of rubbing thread.

"Go on weaving, I will arrange for someone to come and spin the thread."

"Yes."

Li Yan walked out of the textile factory and walked a few steps forward. He saw a Baryonyx parked in front of a large courtyard. There were a lot of dried crocodile skins on the Baryonyx. Some clansmen unloaded the animal skins here early in the morning. , sent to the leather factory to tan the leather.

There are six tribesmen here, their faces are not very good, maybe they went to the swamp of the Chu tribe to hunt crocodiles, and they were a little tired after returning. Jiang He is also here, and he led the beast team to hunt crocodiles.

Li Yan greeted them, and continued to walk forward. Next to the leather factory was a shoe factory.

Stand at the door and look in.

In a large yard surrounded by mud walls, there is a large shed to keep out the rain, and the ground is covered with hay. More than a dozen men, women, old and young are sewing all kinds of shoes in it, including leather shoes, straw sandals, and animal skins worn by Li Yan. Flip flops, in a corner inside, there are several piles of shoes more than one meter high, and each pair of shoes is tied together with a rope. The workers here come early in the morning to make shoes, which is very good!

Li Yan walked in. The environment here was fairly clean. The tribesmen were all burying their heads in sewing shoes. They used iron awls to drill holes in the giant animal skins, and then sewed up softer animal skins, or directly tied them on. A piece of animal leather is made into slippers. Someone here is responsible for cutting the leather, and someone is responsible for sewing the leather. This is an assembly line. As long as there are enough materials, this assembly line can produce thirty pairs of shoes a day.

The person in charge here is a man named Jiang Xie. Li Yan came in and wandered around before he was discovered by this man.

"Patriarch." Jiang Xie threw away the half-made shoes in his hand and stood up and said.

"How many pairs of shoes can we sell?" Li Yan asked.

The ginger tribe is short of money, the hot sauce cannot be produced, and the sales of pottery have begun to decline. The tribe's pottery is mainly sold to several nearby tribes.

Li Yan believes that pottery is a consumer-resistant product. The main reason is that the nearby tribes are becoming saturated. The pottery will be lost during long-distance transportation. In addition, most of the tribes in the distance are customers of the Tao Tang clan. After thinking about it, Li Yan feels that the pottery of the tribe It is difficult to make a breakthrough in the industry, so he put his mind on the shoe industry and clothing.

"Twenty years ago, I counted. We have [-] pairs of leather shoes, [-] pairs of leather boots, [-] pairs of straw sandals, and [-] pairs of slippers. We haven't counted those yet."

Jiang Xie pointed to a relatively empty shed nearby, and said, "That's those."

Li Yan even went to the side of those shoes to check carefully, he was very satisfied, these shoes are very strong, although ordinary tribesmen are used to bare feet and don't like to wear shoes, but Li Yan believes that the tribesmen will definitely pay attention to their feet , otherwise, how could shoes be invented?
Li Yan still remembers when he was in the Yi tribe, most of the people there had their feet bound with cloth or animal skins.

Today, he made an appointment with the concubine who is in charge of patrolling and guarding daily life. He even gave her a pair of shoes before.

In the afternoon, the sun is a bit glaring.

Five ancient god pterosaurs landed in the valley, and the concubine came to the Jiang tribe again. Li Yan welcomed her very much, and even ordered people to cook a lot of delicious food for her.

In a large courtyard in Mud City, a large wooden table is filled with all kinds of delicacies, such as pheasant meat, fish meat, venison meat, giant beast meat, rabbit meat, etc., all of which are wild game.

Li Yan once thought of domesticating some pheasants and wild boars, but they all failed. The reason is that pheasants and wild boars are different from modern livestock. Li Yan thought that there was a problem with pigs and chickens in this world, but he thought that sheep tribes also had problems. Domesticated sheep, it can be seen that there are domesticated livestock in some tribes.

Every kind of domestic animal has been tamed for thousands of years to have its appearance, and its reproductive ability and meat production rate are much better than wild animals. Li Yan didn't catch wild animals to domesticate himself because he felt that in his lifetime it would be It is impossible to see a pheasant that lays eggs every day.

Therefore, he really wanted to find some domesticated livestock as a supplement to the tribe's breeding industry.

The main reason is that the meat of giant beasts such as dinosaur meat is too rough. The larger the animal, the rougher the meat, and their slaughter time and reproductive capacity are very long. For example, the pregnancy cycle of an elephant is two years, so there is no Suitable for the long-term development of the tribe.

Now the Jiang tribe hasn't invented wine yet, so they can only serve with water. I always feel that something is missing, but the scorpion doesn't care much.

"Chef, how about the shoes?" Li Yan asked.

"The chief is very interested. He said he could give it to the hunting guards, and asked how much you have?" Yu Chong replied. She was not surprised that the hunting guards like Li Yan were working for the interests of her tribe. The hunting guards of the five major clans all did this.

"There are only more than 30 hunting guards in total." Li Yan frowned, "I have four hundred pairs of different shoes."

"And the reserve team?"

"That's right, there are more than 50 people in the reserve team, so there are also 100 people."

Li Yan thought for a while, picked up another exquisite pottery bowl, and asked, "Chef, we Jiang tribe still have pottery. I wonder if you can buy pottery from me?"

"There are pottery makers in the Yi tribe, we don't need pottery." Yan Chong shook his head.

"By the way, the rest of you Yi tribe should need shoes, right? How about you buy more shoes from me in the future?"

"That's out of my control. Elder Teng has the final say on these matters of the Yi tribe." Yan Chong said.

"Elder Teng? Is that the white witch from the Yi tribe, the elder who treated the hunting guards?" Li Yan asked.

"That's right, you know her too? Not only is she the witch doctor of the alliance, she is also in charge of the distribution of various living supplies of the Yi tribe. If you want to sell shoes to our Yi tribe, you have to go to her." said the worm.

"Well, actually, I'm going to pay a visit to Elder Teng as well." Li Yan said.

"Elder Teng is the wife of Chief Yi, you have to respect her, sometimes her power is greater than that of Chief," Yan Chong reminded.

"I understand that Elder Teng is the white witch of the Yi tribe."

The white witches of this era are all women, and the people who govern the tribe are also white witches. Just like the Jiang tribe, Li Yan doesn't think there is anything wrong with it. The white witch of the Jiang tribe is his mother, and he is the person he trusts the most. , It is still a matrilineal society.

"Okay, I'm going to visit that elder vine."

After Li Yan finished speaking, he took out a bag of shell coins from under the table, put it in front of Mi Chong, and said, "Chef Mi Chong, this is a gift from me. I hope we will continue to cooperate in the future."

"Okay."

The concubine took the hundred shell coins, smiled happily, and felt that she should do something after accepting Li Yan's gift, so she said, "Patriarch Yan, I will help you introduce Elder Teng, and I will try my best to persuade her to agree to your request." .”
