Chapter 20 Brag Activities

A group of primitive people can still imagine and understand it by weaving baskets and bark with rattan bark and rubbing ropes or even making bows and arrows.

But burning this container as strong as a stone with mud is not as simple as understanding, but requires unparalleled wisdom.

Before Xu Chen came to life, their best tools were stone knives and stone axes.

Not to mention that they have never seen such a container of exquisite explanations in any tribe, no one has ever mentioned it for generations.

In other words, this is Xu Chen's invention and creation alone.

And this is also a unique skill of the tribe.

With this kind of sturdy and easy-to-use pottery, it will bring great changes to the lives of the tribe members.

In the future, all kinds of food will no longer be filled with leaves or shells.

In the future, the miscellaneous food can be placed in a pottery bowl and heated directly, and no longer need to be placed on the stone slab beside the fire pit and slowly smoked and roasted.

It can also be used to drink water, store food and food, and no longer have to pile it on the ground.

Especially with this magical pottery, the Ba people will become the richest and most popular tribe in this area in the future.

After other tribes knew about it, they would definitely come to exchange it with a lot of food and animal skins.

Then there will be no worries about not having enough food.

Even in winter, there will be enough animal skins to keep warm.

So in the midst of the joy of the clan, Moba officially announced at dinner that he would fully support Xu Chen in making more pottery. He must let all nearby tribes know about the pottery of the Ba tribe at the witch master conference in autumn and the old mother festival in next spring, so that they could exchange the best animal skins and the most expensive things, and also use pottery to recruit the strongest men of other tribes for the tribe.

Eating, chatting, and in the lively exchanges, Xu Chen finally got enough information today.

The tribe he lives in is called Ba, and there are five tribes nearby.

The most powerful tribe among them is called Wu, and I have already learned about it before.

Although everyone can't tell how many people there are in the Ukrainian tribe, judging from their gestures and emotions, it is estimated that the Ukrainian tribe is not small, very powerful, and probably bullies other tribes a lot. Therefore, every time a group of male savages talk about it, they are excited and angry.

In addition, Xu Chen also knew for the first time that although these savage tribes rarely interacted on weekdays, in order to maintain contact, they had a festival-like party in spring and autumn.

The party in autumn is called Wuzhu. Of course, this is the pronunciation. Because without words, Xu Chen could not know exactly what Wuzhu means, but it can be seen that everyone cares about this exchange conference.

There is also an Ancient Mother Festival in spring. This is similar to Chinese in terms of pronunciation and language. Xu Chen can roughly estimate the meaning, which may be a sacrifice to ancestors.

The matriarchal clan maintains the relationship between tribes and clans through matriarchal blood ties. Everyone follows the mother's surname and creates new families to open up territories around through continuous divisions. These blood ties maintain connections, thus forming a loose tribal alliance.

The Ba tribe is a family that split from the Wu tribe.

Muba's mother is a member of the Wu tribe.

Therefore, the Ba people and Wu people have common ancestors, so Mother's Day may be a ceremony to worship ancestors.

While offering sacrifices, there will be an activity similar to group blind dates, selecting men for adult women in all tribes.

For the strength and healthy development of the tribe, the stronger the men, the better.

Therefore, if you want to attract the strongest man to marry into your family, you need to give enough gifts to tempt and compensate the other tribe.

Because this is an era of vast land and sparsely populated population, population is the most important wealth, and it is also the youngest and strongest man in other families. Therefore, you must show enough sincerity and a sufficient price.

For example, the Ba people, there are now three young women who are at the age of marriage.

Logically, three sons-in-laws can be recruited, and the tribe will have three more strong men.

Of course, as long as the price is paid enough, each woman can recruit two or three men. Nowadays, women can enjoy the multi-human configuration. Anyway, it is a group marriage system and there is no fixed husband-wife relationship.

Marrying a man is actually equivalent to getting a public husband for all the women of the tribe.

In addition to being responsible for hunting and working hard for the tribe during the day, men also have to work hard to farm the fields and export crazy at night.

Xu Chen has been very confused since he learned about this marriage system.

Is this a woman happy or a man happy?

Of course, marriage is never one-sided. In the future, daughters will not have to worry about marriage, but now men will not have to worry about marriage. All tribes need to reproduce and develop, and it is essential to constantly introduce fresh blood. Therefore, good men will naturally be in short supply.

But the Ba people are very small and have insufficient strength, and they don’t have many brides to give out. If no one wants to come, no one will come to the door.

In addition to recruiting son-in-law with a dowry, you can also change son-in-law, but there is no suitable man in the Ba tribe to exchange it.

Xu Chen, Gu and Ju, who are the closest, are not yet adult.

But this year is different. The Ba people have vine baskets, ropes, bows and arrows, wooden hoes and even pottery. These are advanced inventions and creations that nearby tribes do not have. They are all symbols of tribal wealth and strength.

Especially bows and arrows and pottery can kill almost all tribes in seconds.

Even the largest Ukrainian tribe can only dwarf.

Just take out a few of these, it will be enough to exchange a few strong young men from other tribes, so that the tribe's strength will increase a lot.

Even one day the tribe's strength surpasses Ukraine...

A group of people quarreled loudly while eating and dancing.

Swallows and bonfires fly together, cheeks and sunset are the same.

This is a typical bragging activity, and Xu Chen is too familiar with this situation.

Human beings have always been so virtuous after tens of thousands of years.

If there is another plate of peanuts and a bottle of Erguotou, it can be blown to pieces in the sky.

Therefore, he opened his ears and tried hard to listen, basically not speaking. At the same time, he digested and absorbed these new information. When he encountered someone he couldn't understand, he would communicate with the savages on both sides and the others for a few questions. Although they were all very simple words, he gradually had more ideas in his mind.

Ropes, rattan baskets, and wooden hoes are basic tools of life. Even if he does not invent it, there is not much difference between the current tribal survival.

This simple tool can be easily produced in production and life, so it is not particularly outstanding. Perhaps in some larger tribal community areas, something similar may already exist.

But bows and arrows and pottery are definitely epoch-making innovative inventions.

Especially the emergence of bows and arrows has given primitive humans enough strength to fight against powerful beasts, instead of relying on physical strength and speed to face the front. Just like hunting wolves a few days ago, they took the initiative to expand their living space and lay a solid foundation for the tribe to go down the mountain to develop.

Pottery will significantly improve the quality of life of human beings, from eating raw meat and drinking blood and simply baking food to boiling medicine and porridge and stewing food in hot water. This will bring a deeper change, that is, the treatment of food will become more abundant, and wine, sauce, pickled vegetables, etc. will appear one after another, and the types and ways of human beings storing food will be more diverse.

Therefore, if you take these two things from the Ba people, it will definitely become the target of all tribes' competition.

But in fact, what Xu Chen wants more now is cloth.

If the cloth can be weaved before winter comes, it will definitely become the most desired thing for all nearby tribes.

As long as they want, Xu Chen will have enough confidence to slowly bring these tribes into his command and form a powerful tribe. A nearby radius of hundreds of miles will become the territory of the Ba tribe, and there will be greater opportunities to contact humans and tribes at a distance.

So I heard a group of savages brag about it. After dinner, Xu Chen went to the puddle to check the soaked bark. He found that some of them had begun to rot. He picked it up with his hands and rubbed it with his hands for a few times. Most of them were not good at all and could easily be torn apart, but there were still two relatively strong and could separate out the finer and softer fibers.

He breathed a sigh of relief and fished the two branches tied with the bark and put them at the entrance of the hole.

After the earth kiln at the foot of the mountain is built, you can start trying to spin and weave cloth. If it is successful, you can start collecting these two types of bark on a large scale and officially start weaving cloth.

Once there is cloth, a group of savages will no longer be savages.

But a group of savages in clothes.

Xu Chen couldn't help but sigh as he heard the sound of um, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Piling, grinding teeth, snoring, farting, shit and not washing hands, it's so fucking bad...

Did God deliberately arrange to punish himself?

He muttered all the way to the woods to find a place to defecate. After a long time of grinning, he grinned and rubbed his butt out.

There is no paper to wipe your butt, and the chrysanthemums scratched by the stones hurt so much.

A half moon rises to the sky, and the fields are as dark as dark as the sky.

The roar of wild beasts and the singing of night birds kept coming from all around.

Under the faint moonlight, a thin shadow was depicting it rippling on the rock wall beside the fire pit.

Ye's face was very serious and persistent, and his movements were very careful.

She wanted to engrave all the words and graphics written by Xu Chen into marks, so that time would not erase them.

In her opinion, these are things that are more important than bow and arrow pottery, and they have an unparalleled temptation to her.

"Stock...ga!"

There was no one around, and Ye secretly released his stubbornness.

"Stove!" A familiar and clear voice came from behind.

Ye's thin body shook slightly, then turned his head with shame, and looked at Xu Chen who was walking over with nowhere to put his hands on his face.

"Stories!" Ye lowered his head and whispered to correct his mistakes.

"By the way, don't take him to speak in the future!"

Xu Chen rubbed the messy hair of the leaves, then picked up a piece of charcoal, and began to write today's diary in the blank space.

Draw a bowl first, then draw a jar...

"Bowl~"

"bowl!"

"Can~"

"Can!"

“Cup~”

"cup!"

The night is getting darker and there are more and more words on the cave wall.

Because the amount of information I have gained today is too large, this diary is so long that I unknowingly wrote more than twenty words.

Xu Chen finally stopped and looked at the graffiti-covered cave walls everywhere in the moonlight, and couldn't help but sigh again.
Chapter completed!
