CHAPTER 556: CHAPTER 541: GRAND LEADER 59 FOUR THOUSAND WORDS

The sweet potato dried by the Yanhuang Tribe was sold out in just two days. Although they received a lot of jerky in return, this meat, which was only air-dried without salt, was not tasty. The Yanhuang Tribe people, having experienced an extended period of prosperity, found the jerky unappetizing.

Yan Shuangshuang thought that since everyone would be staying at the Mutual Market for a while to help those rescued recuperate, it would be boring to stay idle in the cave. Since the jerky wasn’t favored, she suggested everyone take the jerky to the market and exchange it for tasty and entertaining items.

Although the Yanhuang Tribe is still only a medium-sized tribe, its wealth rivals that of a Great Tribe, so they didn’t care much about these not-so-delicious jerky.

Yu spent recent days exchanging ideas with the witch doctors at the Mutual Market, who were very friendly to Yu and taught her a lot of knowledge.

Yan Shuangshuang considered that these witch doctors could be regarded as half-masters to Yu and wanted to express her gratitude. Yu had already sent the sweet potato as a specialty to these witch doctors, who were pleased with such a new and popular food that has appeared in the Mutual Market.

But merely sending some sweet potato didn’t sit well with Yan Shuangshuang, so she used some of the jerky to exchange for delicious dried wild fruits, wild vegetables, and a variety of foods she hadn’t seen before.

Yan Shuangshuang first asked Yu how many witch doctors had taught her, then wove exquisite little baskets from soft vines. She divided the purchased items proportionally into these baskets, placing a full shell of edible salt in each one. Once equipped, a perfect teacher’s gift was prepared.

The next day, Yu took several warriors with her to deliver these gifts to the witch doctors. When Yu returned to the cave at night, she had an excited smile on her face, clearly in a good mood.

Before Yan Shuangshuang could ask, Yu eagerly recounted her day. When Yu delivered the gifts, the witch doctors were delighted, especially with the shell of salt, which was indeed a generous gift.

Even for a Super Tribe, obtaining salt was not easy. Only a few rare Super Tribes knew how to produce it, and other Super Tribes had to buy it at a high price, showing how precious salt was.

Receiving such a valuable gift, the witch doctors had a great impression of Yu. During this exchange, many witch doctors imparted their unique skills to Yu, benefiting her greatly and keeping her excited until now.

Yan Shuangshuang smiled gently as she listened to Yu talk excitedly without her usual calm composure. Indeed, intelligent people everywhere prefer to navigate the ways of a society based on human relationships.

Initially, Yan Shuangshuang stayed at the Mutual Market to help those rescued from the Cannibal Clan to recuperate. Now, for Yu to learn more from the witch doctors, Yan Shuangshuang decided to extend her stay at the Mutual Market a bit longer.

Since there were enough people left in the tribe, many warriors, and the Earth King Beast as a big guardian, Yan Shuangshuang didn’t have to worry about the tribe’s safety, allowing her to peacefully extend her stay at the Mutual Market.

Luckily, the Mutual Market is held twice a year, for at least three seasons each time, which according to Yan Shuangshuang’s calculations, is three months. This market had only been open for about a month, so there was plenty of time for Yan Shuangshuang to stay.

Since there was time, Yan Shuangshuang thought about exploring the Mutual Market to see if she could come across the Cannibal Tribe. Although the Yanhuang Tribe’s strength wasn’t enough to confront the Cannibal Tribe directly, she could at least save a few more people.

With this idea, Yan Shuangshuang intentionally wandered around the quieter areas of the Mutual Market. This time, she didn’t encounter the Cannibal Clan selling live meat, giving her a sense of relief as it seemed the Cannibal Clan wasn’t too rampant, with only one stall selling human meat.

Since there were no Cannibals, Yan Shuangshuang stopped wandering aimlessly and decided to genuinely look for interesting things to buy.

Just as Yan Shuangshuang was thinking this, she saw a small team of about ten people walk past her. Dressed in light snake skin skirts and holding stone axes and stone blades, their bodies were muscular, and these people were the warriors responsible for maintaining security at the Mutual Market from the Super Tribe.
