Chapter 914
When approaching Fang Lei's department, Mu Feng made everyone get ready.
After a short meeting, a team of more than 20 people headed by Da Huyou walked towards Fang Lei's department.
Da Huyou is the nominal chief of this trip, Li Wang and Tuo Gu Mu grew up and are responsible for carrying the fur.
The rest of them were all stooped, with animal skin bags on their backs.
Inside the animal skin bag were clay pots that looked like small basins.
In this way, it will not attract too much attention from others.
As for Mu Feng, Fei Niao, Tuo Gu Mu and others followed closely behind, it seemed that they were protecting the big fool.
In front of it is the Fang Lei Department. The stone wall is very high, and it is actually made of mixed soil.
Mu Feng couldn't help but feel serious in his heart.
Although Fang Lei's earthen walls are not as strong and thick as Da Jiang's, they already have the rudimentary form of a primary city.
There are four relatively tall people guarding the gate of the city gate. There are entrances and exits, but no gates. I don't know if they don't know how to build city gates or because they don't have to build them because they have the confidence.
When approaching, Mufeng looked at the width, it was probably enough for two mammoths to come and go side by side.
The four gatekeepers were relatively tall, and each held a big stick in their hands, which were almost the same size.
The most important thing is that it is covered with green rust - copper rods!
Mu Feng was surprised from the bottom of his heart.
This is the first time he has seen a uniform style of weapon outside of Da Jiang.
Although he had seen the copper rods of the Goshawk Department before, it was obviously caused by different processing, and the craftsmanship was obviously immature.
But the size and shape of the big sticks in the hands of these four people tend to be the same, which shows that they are already very skilled in processing copper sticks.
If they go a step further on this basis and discover that high-temperature smelting can quench copper, then they may also enter the Bronze Age.
But no one knows how long this process will take.
It may be a few generations, or it may be a dozen or twenty generations.
But it is undeniable that Fang Lei's tribe is more "civilized" than the Qingniao tribe and Changli tribes that Mufeng has come into contact with.
This is only seen from the weapons used by the city gates and the gatekeepers. If you count the unlimited transactions, the strength of the Fang Lei Department is quite intriguing.
The gate faces south, and everyone walked up to the gate. Da Huyou went straight to the four of them, leaned over and said with a smile: "We are members of the Black Bear Department, and we want to come here to exchange some salt and food!"
The gatekeeper looked at Da Huyou, then at Mu Feng and the others.
When he saw Li Wang, he obviously took a second look.
Li Wang and Tuo Gumu hurried forward according to Mufeng's previous instructions.
When the gatekeeper saw four bundles of furs, he silently nodded and stepped aside: "Go!"
Big Huyou hurriedly said with a smile, "Yes, yes!"
Then he waved and said, "Let's go!"
Everyone followed the big flicker to the inside of Fang Lei's department.
Mu Feng hid among the crowd, carefully checking left and right.
There were people coming and going, front and back, or furs, or salt shakers, or food, and weapons.
No one cares or cares about the things brought by Da Huyou and his group.
No one else even bothered to look at them.
If anyone really wanted to say that someone looked at them, they would be amazed at King Li's height.
It's just that before Li Wang came, he was repeatedly emphasized by Mu Feng, and now he pretended to be stupid and kept silent.
Wooden wind continued to observe.
The surrounding houses are all made of adobe and wood, which naturally cannot be compared with Da Jiang's tulou.
But in the middle of the house, there are high platforms made of wood, which are three to four meters taller, far higher than the surrounding houses, even higher than the outer earth wall.
Mu Feng was puzzled in his heart.
Because in his opinion, if there is only one such high platform, it may be used for offering sacrifices and speaking on the stage.
It would not be so simple if there were dozens scattered across the entire tribe like now.
It is very likely that the Fang Lei Department has throwing weapons such as bows, javelins, or long hairs.
Otherwise they wouldn't have such an arrangement.
This is something that Da Huyou didn't notice - it's not that he didn't notice, but that he didn't understand it.
After all, the arrow towers built in Black Bear City are obviously different from these high platforms, and they are all located close to the city walls.
In the distance, Mu Feng saw a tall pole that was the same as the Liaolong and Yanma, on which a piece of animal skin fluttered in the wind.
It's just that the distance is a little far, the animal skin looks a bit long and wide, and Mu Feng is not sure if it is python skin or dragon skin.
On the way here, Mu Feng heard from Da Huyou that Fang Lei's totem is a mud dragon that lives in the swamp, and it walks like flying in the swamp.
Mu Feng's first reaction at that time was the dragon.
But Da Huyou told Mufeng with certainty that it was not.
He thought whether Fang Leibu's totem would be the same as Da Jiang's dragon, which was also a conceptual thing.
But seeing this animal skin now, he suddenly realized that this mud dragon might be a real beast.
It's just that such a large piece of animal skin is dancing slightly on the flagpole at this time, and it looks like it is floating back and forth like a kite.
It was clearly exposed to the wind, sun, and rain for a long time, and the entire animal skin was dehydrated and weightless.
Mu Feng wanted to go over to find out, but he knew that it was the important place of the Fang Lei Department - the location of the great chief.
Tribes like the Black Bears are out of reach.
He had to give up.
Anyway, there is no rush at this moment.
After he followed Da Huyou into the city gate, he first moved west and then north, which was exactly the opposite direction to where the flagpole was, and he couldn't see clearly anymore.
They walked around for ten or twenty minutes before arriving at the trading area.
He could smell blood as he approached the trading area.
Looking at the ground, various footprints are mixed together.
There are cows, horses, sheep, and other wild animals.
Da Huyou looked back at Mu Feng, who nodded quietly.
So Da Huyou deliberately walked slowly, letting Mu Feng go to inquire.
This trading area is very small, less than half the size of Pixiu City.
But there are so many things piled up here.
Salt shakers, furs, weapons, food...
There are even some rare cattle and sheep!
Of course, there is more copper ore that is said by the big fool.
And there are still a lot of copper ore.
He pretended not to know and approached the two who were looking at the copper ore, and asked in a low voice, "What is this, can it be traded?"
The man looked at him like a fool, and was very impatient: "Gold!"
"Goldware!" Mu Feng exclaimed again, "But what's the use of such goldware?"
The man didn't say a word, but just looked at Mu Feng, the "earth turtle", with cold eyes.
Mu Feng resentfully retreated to Da Huyou's side.
Big Huyou stepped forward and asked, "How do you exchange for such gold?"
The man looked at Da Huyou, confirmed that he was the "leader" of the group, nodded and said, "Ten horses, change this bunch."
Big Huyou hurriedly said: "Too many, too many, we don't have any!"
The man didn't say much, just looked away.
Obviously, he has seen a lot of such reactions from the big flicker.
Only then did Da Huyou bring people to the location of the salt bar, confirm what he needed, and said directly: "Then let's exchange two jars of salt bar!"
The person in charge of the transaction didn't say much, and nodded: "Okay, fifty furs!"
Big Huyou immediately said again: "If we don't want stone pots, can we have less!"
The man nodded: "If you don't want stone jars, you can have less."
Da Huyou then ordered everyone to take out clay pots from the animal skin bags on their backs and start filling them with salt.
At this moment, the person in charge of the exchange was stunned for a moment, and then shouted: "Wait!"
Da Huyou glanced at Mu Feng quietly, and the two smiled imperceptibly...
