Chapter 162 Sympathy for them

   After a while, the muddy water in that pottery bowl miraculously became clear and clean!

   Li Wu and Li Da's leader widened their eyes in surprise: "Really, really changed! It's amazing!"

  Seeing is believing, the leaders of Li Da and Li Wu, who had some doubts about them, now completely believe them.

Afraid that he remembered wrongly, Li Wu asked again carefully, and took out a piece of soft and clean bark that was obviously treated. At a glance, I saw all kinds of strange symbols and pictograms, and I consciously stopped reading them.

   This must be the "character" used by the Li tribe. Generally speaking, many tribes with a long history have their own symbols for recording. This is the inheritance of this tribe, and outsiders are absolutely not allowed to learn it.

  If it wasn't for Li Wu's memory, she would never have allowed Lin Lang and Li Xian to stay here when she was portraying.

   After Li Wu finished painting, the leader of Li Da invited Lin Lang and Li Xian out with great discernment.

   "Leader Li and Lin Wu haven't eaten yet, right? Let's go for a walk. Let's go eat first. In the afternoon, let's discuss the exchange of salt and pottery. I'll take you around tomorrow, how about it?"

  Li Xian nodded: "Okay!"

   Chief Li smiled and led the two to his home for dinner.

   Grilled meat, broth cooked in clay pots, and some dried vegetables.

  There are no wild vegetables in winter. The tribesmen would actually dry some vegetables in the spring and summer and save some of them when cooking broth in winter. Although it is not delicious, everyone will eat it. Because it has always been like this.

  Where can Lin Lang and Li Xian eat this most primitive and crude broth and barbecue?

  The Chaoyang Tribe also has various dried vegetables, but it is definitely not like other tribes just simply drying it under the sun.

Some of the vegetables they dry are dried directly, some need to be blanched and then dried, and some are half-dried and then rubbed with salt and placed in a jar to be sealed and pickled, and there are also fresh vegetables made into kimchi, Pickled cabbage, pickled vegetables, etc., there are so many tricks.

   In addition to salt, now there are salt and pepper, chili powder, pepper, honey, sesame paste, sesame powder, peanut butter and peanut powder. Although it is far from what Lin Lang and Li Xian wanted, it is also very incredible.

   It is difficult to change from luxury to thrift!

   So Lin Lang took fresh bamboo shoot stew from the space and seasoned the barbecue with salt, pepper and honey.

  Simply add it like this, it immediately turns corruption into magic, and the taste is several times better.

  The family of the chief of the Li tribe was full of praise and hurriedly asked Lin Lang for advice.

  Lin Lang smiled generously and gave them several handfuls of peppercorns and a branch of a peppercorn tree.

   I don’t know how big this continent is, but there are so many good things. All the tribes of Linlang Pabu fell in love with collecting good things, planting and farming. Everyone is good, and they can also gain exposure through exchange.

   This is not something to hide.

   The leader of Li, as if he had obtained a treasure, took the pepper tree branch to the witch, and at the same time sent the barbecued meat sprinkled with salt and pepper.

  Li Wu was refreshed after tasting the barbecued meat. He quickly kept the pepper tree branches behind the house. Later, when the tribal warriors went out to hunt and women went out to gather, they could compare them with the leaves.

  Lin Lang and Li Xian originally wanted to see the place where alum and sulfur were mined, but the leader of Li Da politely refused.

  Since it is a good thing, of course it cannot be seen by outsiders! The more confidential the better.

  Lin Lang thought about it, his own Yangu would definitely not want to let outsiders know, so he didn't force it.

   Everyone negotiated the price, and finally exchanged the exchange amount of sulfur and alum for one basket of salt for every six baskets. Both parties were very satisfied.

Lin Lang and the others also brought a lot of large pottery jars that are more than half a person high, jars for pickling food, pottery pots, pots, pots, etc., but the Li tribe needed to exchange them with plants they could see. .

The leader of Li Da watched with admiration as Lin Lang easily took out these pottery from the space. He wanted each of them very much. These pottery were fired very well. The most important thing is that they delivered them directly to the door. They carry it by hand!

   Save more trouble!

   So, he and Li Wu discussed it. Originally, he didn't want to take Lin Lang and Li Xian around too much of his own territory, but now he has changed his mind.

   What they want is plants, if you like it, then give it to them! Anyway, they couldn't take away all the plants on the Li tribe's territory.

   You can exchange a lot of good things like this, why not?

   The next day, the leader of Li Da personally took Lin Lang and Li Xian out for a walk.

This season is about the end of February. Asakusa is budding, and the bare branches that have been dried up do not know when they are full of small buds. Just waiting for a spring breeze and a spring rain, they will rush to stretch and grow overnight. Fresh and tender leaves come.

  Lin Lang and Li Xian didn't have much time outside. They planned to stay here for three days in the Li tribe, and then it was time to go back to work on spring ploughing.

   For two days, they wandered in two different directions and harvested persimmon trees, a plum tree, and an orange tree.

  The Li tribe always called these fruit trees "wild fruit trees". The leader of Li Da was very happy when he saw them, and it was a good thing to be able to exchange pottery so easily. He also specially introduced them to them.

Lin Lang and Li Xian learned from the leader of Li Da that the fruit of the persimmon tree is as big as a fist, and it is flat and flat. It can only be picked and eaten when the tree is fully ripe and rotten when squeezed by hand. , otherwise the mouth full of bitter taste, not tasty at all.

"This kind of fruit is very sweet when it is ripe, but unfortunately there are many birds when it is ripe, and they are all called to peck it. The tribesmen basically can't eat a few, and they are all cheaper than the birds in the mountains. It is easy to preserve, you can only take it off and eat it, which is very inconvenient”

   The fruit of the plum tree is bigger than the wild egg, with purple-red skin and flesh, which is not bad, but it is very sour even when it is not fully cooked.

  The orange tree, the leader of Li Da is a little disgusted, it is too sour, and it is just as sour when it is ripe! The tribesmen did not eat it at all, nor did the birds.

   He was actually a little puzzled, why did Lin Lang and the others even want this stuff.

  Lin Lang of course wanted it. Hundreds of each of the three kinds of fruit trees were brought back, big and small.

  Persimmons can be eaten as fresh fruit or made into persimmon cakes. Purple red plums can be eaten as fresh fruit. As for orange trees, if you find other varieties in the future, you can try grafting them. Maybe you can graft them with good taste?

   Even if it is very sour now, it can still be used for seasoning!

   Roasted meat, stewed meat, dipped in water with a little sour orange juice, that is also very good!

   Ask for subscription and monthly pass
