Chapter 328 Hunting and Fishing
"Okay, then I'd like to thank you, Your Majesty!" Gu Xiang also responded happily.
The two parties reached an agreement that satisfied both parties, and Gu Xiang and his companions got up and said goodbye.
The eldest prince was very efficient and exchanged salt for all the people in the tribe in just one morning.
The whole tribe was bustling all morning, as if a small market had formed within the tribe.
After learning that the salt was provided by the Gu family, the grassland men enthusiastically helped them to exchange the animal skins and wool, which really helped Gu Fu and his men a lot.
They exchanged salt in the morning, broke camp in the afternoon and continued their migration.
Gu Fu and his companions followed them all the way.
We walked and stopped along the way for more than half a month before we found the final habitat.
A vast area with lush vegetation and abundant water and grass.
After more than half a month of getting along, Gu Fu and his companions have become friends with the Muzhen tribe.
Everyone in the tribe likes these children very much.
Not only was he generous and polite, but he also knew a lot of knowledge that they didn't know, and he taught it to them without any hesitation.
After half a month of getting along, they got to know about Allium mongolicum and Stipa grass, which are used as seasoning and food.
I also know that sheepgrass can not only be collected for winter fodder, but its hay can also be used for weaving.
I also learned about the medicinal value of Artemisia frigida, Amaranthus, Cordyceps sinensis, etc.
The most important thing is that they just have to collect these things and process them according to the methods they taught, and they can take as much as they want.
This is a considerable income!
And they have a lot of new things, such as the spices that make people want to swallow their tongues after adding them, and the salt and sugar that are as white as snow...
There are delicious fruits that you have never seen before, as well as wheat, sweet potatoes and other delicacies. They are even more flavorful when roasted.
Due to the above reasons, the Gu family members are quite popular in the Muzhen tribe.
Now he was no longer chasing far behind, but was walking at the front of the team with Mu Zhen Tianhao and the others.
"This will be our base from now on. My father lit a bonfire tonight to celebrate. Let's go hunting." Mu Zhen Tianhao greeted a few people.
"Okay, then let's go and get some exercise." Song Renjing responded happily.
The group mounted their horses, waved their whips, and galloped towards the distant grassland, cheering.
"Let's see whose horse runs faster. Go!" Mu Zhen Tianhao said loudly with a smile.
Not wanting to be outdone, the others whipped their horses and started chasing after him.
Gu Fu also liked the thrill of galloping on the endless prairie, and followed his brothers and the little girls on the prairie to catch up.
The children of the grassland also performed superb riding skills for them. Some of them could even stand upright on the horse's back, and some could jump off the horse's back while the horse was running, run at the same level as the horse, and then jump back on the horse.
Several people from the Gu family exclaimed in amazement when they saw it, it was simply a miraculous skill.
They are even more amazing when hunting. The children on the grassland stand on their horses as if they were standing on flat ground. No matter how fast the horses are galloping and the ground is bumpy, they can still accurately put the rope on the head of the yellow sheep and capture it.
Moreover, the horse can adjust its direction in time according to the escape route of the prey without relying on reins.
Several people watched with great admiration, especially Song Renjing, who felt the importance of not commenting without knowing the full picture.
Our own country has only a vague understanding of the grasslands, and judges the grassland people as uncivilized fools and barbarians based on their winter clothing.
However, they did not know that the people on the grassland were the same as them. Not only that, because of their different diet, many of them were taller and stronger than the people of Daxia.
They also have their own culture, beliefs and wisdom.
If you just live in your own world, sooner or later you will become complacent.
If the grasslands show any intention of aggression at that time, Daxia will be in danger.
Thinking of the other world that Gu Fu mentioned, a country composed of more than fifty ethnic groups, how powerful it would be.
He also had to find a way to make the Muzhen tribe, and even the entire grassland tribe, willingly join Daxia one day in the future.
However, it is too early to say this now. The crisis of our own rebellious army has not been completely resolved, and everything has to be done slowly.
Song Renjing suppressed his thoughts and focused on hunting.
Since there were many people out hunting, and they were all brave and good at hunting, they caught enough for today in a short time.
The little girls on the grassland took Gu Fu with them to the river not far away, using their unique iron forks to catch fish.
For the children on the grassland, hunting is much easier than catching fish, but when these little girls go out, their elders repeatedly remind them: "You must take good care of your sister Fuer."
Because of this instruction, Gu Fu found that since leaving the tent, he was always surrounded by the young lady.
See she wants to go hunting, stop her!
"Sister Fu'er, it's enough for the boys to do the hunting, and we can just watch."
Gu Fu: ...
As soon as she walked closer to the lake, she was led back by the young ladies.
"Sister Fu'er, the river is dangerous. We can just watch from here."
Gu Fu: ...
In the end, everyone worked together and everyone reaped a lot of rewards.
The children rode their horses happily towards the tent.
From time to time along the way, you can see busy tribesmen. When they see the hunting team, they all put down their work.
He smiled and praised: "Not bad, not bad. We have a great harvest today. This is really a great place with abundant resources!"
"That's great! Thanks to you, we can have a sumptuous meal again today!"
……
The children on the grassland and Gu Fu and his companions all had their smiles curled up as they praised the emperor along the way, and their smiles remained curled up until the evening.
Gu Fu couldn't help but sigh in his heart that encouraging education really wins people's hearts.
After delivering the game to the designated location, the children rode their horses around the camp.
"Let's go and see how the venue for today's bonfire party is arranged." Mu Zhen Tianhao invited.
Gu Fu and his companions nodded and rode their horses to follow.
Not far from the camp, a stone platform had been built, and it was covered with layers of small flags of various colors. "This is where the high priest prayed for blessings and prophecies.
Every time we arrive at a new place, the high priest will predict our future life. This process is very sacred and cannot be interrupted, so we should try not to come here later. "Mu Zhen Tianhao introduced.
Upon hearing this, several people nodded to indicate that they understood.
Not far from the stone platform is the bonfire, and a large pile of firewood has been piled up there.
"What a huge pile of firewood! It will take until tomorrow morning, right?" Gu Xiang asked curiously.
"Yes, normally it will burn until tomorrow morning. If the high priest does not get a clear prophecy during meditation, he will refer to the ashes of the bonfire to make a prediction." Mu Zhen Tianhao explained to everyone.
