I am a Primitive Man

Just as the leader of the Green tribe had shown a proud expression a moment ago, his smile disappeared even before he reached the Green Sparrow tribe.

He and the others who were laughing just now became silent at this moment.

In their silence, all of them appeared with stunned expressions that could be described as jaw-dropping.

Of course, it wasn't because they saw the Green Sparrow tribe's very fashionable and avant-garde clothing, but because they saw the wild grass that extended like a continuous green carpet on both sides of the tribe, reaching far away!

Their tribe could exchange these for pottery, salt, and other things. A few days ago, the wild grass made everyone sad because it was pulling up the seedlings to help them grow. How could there be so much of it growing around this tribe?

This... how is this possible!

They clearly remembered that the last time they attended the Joyful Gathering, this place was still barren, without even a single tree. Why are so many wild grasses growing now?

Amidst their shock, the leader of the Green tribe remembered the scene he had seen when the last batch of wild grasses matured, the sight of a large number of mature wild grass seeds!

Last year, the area planted with millet by the Green Sparrow tribe was not as large as it is now, so the leader of the Green tribe and his people did not notice.

Now, seeing the scene in front of them and recalling the scene from last year, the leader of the Green tribe suddenly understood what was going on.

But one thing still puzzled him deeply.

Why was there less and less of this kind of wild grass around their tribe, while the tribe that initially had no wild grass seeds now had an astonishing amount of this wild grass?

Before he joined the Green Sparrow tribe, Han Cheng would certainly not tell him that this was the inherent skill of the Chinese nation at work...

On the wall, there was a warning sound from the people. Han Cheng looked at the Green tribe people coming from a distance and looked quite embarrassed, with a happy smile.

The several years he spent laying the groundwork were not in vain after all. If handled properly, the Green tribe would be the first big fish he caught.

He drank the remaining bamboo leaf water heartily, then got up to explain matters to his eldest senior brother.

The Green tribe people came empty-handed from afar and received excellent hospitality. Leaving aside other matters, just the cool bamboo leaf water was enough to save lives.

Despite being surprised by the strange clothes of the Green Sparrow tribe, after seeing how they treated them, the leader of the Green tribe felt much more at ease.

He thought it might be possible to get the other party to give them some salt for free again.

However, the facts that followed shattered his sense of luck.

Everything else was negotiable, but when it came to salt, the tribe leader, who was familiar with him, suddenly became stingy.

No matter what he said, whether he was exchanging fur or food for salt or joining the tribe, nothing changed.

When it came to the critical moment of closing the deal, the eloquence of the leader of the Green tribe was in vain. Even when he pushed out his two spouses, it was useless.

After a while of wrangling, the leader of the Green tribe had no choice but to lead his people back.

"Divine Child, they're going back like this..."

The shaman and the eldest senior brother looked somewhat unwilling as they watched the Green tribe people disappear.

In their view, the salt plan finally showed some progress. However, the people from the Green Tribe only made a round trip to their tribe and then left again. After leaving, it was uncertain whether they would come back...

"Don't worry, they will return soon," Han Cheng said calmly.

" Divine Child, truly miraculous! They came back!" exclaimed the senior disciple with admiration.

As Han Cheng's words faded, he turned around and saw the Green Tribe, which had disappeared not long ago, reappearing on the other side of the river.

Seeing the shaman and the Eldest Senior Brother's admiration, Han Cheng felt a bit awkward.

When he said they would return soon, he meant the Green Tribe, which had already run out of salt, would return sooner or later to exchange goods for salt.

When they had exchanged all their remaining goods for salt and had nothing left, it would be time for them to consider joining their tribe.

It wasn't as if the Green Tribe would return in a moment.

Who could have imagined that things would be so coincidental? Just as he had finished speaking, the people from the Green Tribe did indeed return.

Indeed, there are no coincidences in life!

Thinking like this, Han Cheng didn't explain further. Instead, he shamelessly accepted the admiration of the tribe without explanation...

Primitive people are simple?

Looking at the carefree Green Tribe leader, who seemed unaffected after putting down the fur, Han Cheng felt that this phrase didn't apply to him.

This guy is actually playing such petty tricks.

Naturally, those who play petty tricks will be punished, especially after being discovered by others.

The Green Tribe leader was the best witness to this.

The Eldest Senior Brother, who discovered the Green Tribe leader's petty tricks, was furious, and the consequences were naturally severe.

In the subsequent transactions, the Eldest Senior Brother, citing various reasons such as the small size of the pelts brought by the Green Tribe leader and the severe shedding, forcibly reduced the amount of salt intended for the Green Tribe by as much as thirty percent.

The Green Tribe leader was unaware of this, as he didn't engage in many transactions with the Green Sparrow Tribe and thought everything was standard procedure.

If he knew the truth, I wonder if he would still be proud of his momentary cleverness...

The people of the Green Tribe left with less than a jar of salt. This salt couldn't sustain them for long, even if their consumption was very frugal.

As the summer heat dissipated, Han Cheng climbed up the wall along the wooden ladder, looking in the direction where the people of the Green Tribe were leaving, smiling like a fox that had stolen a chicken.

"Brother Cheng, look..."

In the evening room, the lamp was lit with fat oil and thin hemp thread.

Unlike before, hemp thread was undoubtedly more suitable for making lamp wicks. The light it emitted was much brighter than before, dispelling the darkness and filling the room.

Under the orange light, anticipating the young bride, Han Cheng began to fulfill his promise to continue "The Benevolent Enjoying the Mountain."

Looking at the beauty under the lamp, even with some flaws, they would be obscured by the dim light.

It was somewhat similar to the effect of looking into a dim bronze mirror. Perhaps that was where Zou Ji got the courage to say, "Who among us is more beautiful than Lord Xu of the North City?"

Under the orange light, with the reflection of the personal items carefully crafted by Han Cheng, the sight of the young bride lifting her clothes made Han Cheng's heart flutter...
