The caravan heading to Amba City encountered many robberies along the way. I probably knew that there were many grain transporters at this time. When I saw that there were big bags of suspected grains in the caravan, even if the robbers were afraid of the black bear caravan, they were mainly greedy at this time, and many of them took risks and paid for their lives.

The caravan never holds back for the robbers. This time, they will be beaten up next time. I'm sorry to know that they are black bear caravans and come out to rob you, so there is no negotiation to kill you. Therefore, in order to reduce the trouble in the future, the caravans are very absolute, but there are not few people who rob each year. One group is slaughtered, and another group comes out.

Some people who have robbed the Tao do not survive because of life, but just think that robbery is easier.

Although the giant bears in the Black Bear Caravan looked a little timid when facing Shao Xuan, they were cruel when facing the people who were robbed. Shao Xuan saw that the giant bears directly pulled people into half several times, but they rarely ate human flesh.

If the giant bear is hungry, the caravans will look for food for them. The recipes for these giant bears are very wide, ranging from green grass buds, berries and ants, to birds, eggs, river fish, etc. Sometimes they will follow the caravans to eat the prey they have taken back, and even see the semi-corrupt beast corpse that was bitten to death by other beasts on the road.

Fortunately, most of the places I walked through were in the mountains and forests, and there was a lot of food around me, so I would not go hungry on the road.

After two or three days of rest, Shao Xuan had recovered almost the same amount, and he would also be distributed to the caravan. The giant bear that had been hunched for three days was also rewarded a lot, so that the giant bear would approach Shao Xuan to ask for food instead.

The caravan walked to the stronghold outside Amba City. The giant bears carried the goods up the mountain. The caravans would not enter the city immediately. They would unload the goods brought back from the royal city here first, and then transport them into Amba City in batches bit by bit.

This time, Shao Xuan brought eight bags of grain from the royal city, Jingu produced by Jingu farm, Jiju gave Shao Xuan ten bags, sold two bags to the Black Bear Caravan, and brought back the remaining eight bags; of course, the most important thing is the excellent seeds he brought from Jiju, which must be kept well. And some axes given by Gong Jiaheng, all of them have to be brought back. In short, there are a lot of goods to be brought back.

"Wait a few days, it's almost winter now. The tribe will come to Amba City again and sell the stockpiled animal skins. Go back with them at that time." Guangyi suggested.

Guangyi was worried that he and Shao Xuan would not be able to take care of the goods, and the Black Bear Caravan would not escort them to the tribe. Therefore, the best thing to do is to wait here for a few days, and they should be able to wait for the tribe's trading team soon.

Shao Xuan thought about it and was right. He came out with the trading team at this time last year.

If Duokang brought the trading team to Amba City. The people from the Black Bear Caravan would definitely know that Shao Xuan asked Mao Da to help inquire. So far, no trading team has come.

"Then keep waiting." Shao Xuan made a decision.

The goods are placed in the stronghold of the Black Bear Caravan outside Amba City, which is safer than in Amba City.

When Mao Da was walking to Amba City with a batch of goods, he said to Shao Xuan: "You can live here first. If I see you Yanjiao people, I will send someone a message."

There was nothing wrong with entering the city, so Shao Xuan and Guangyi stayed at the stronghold of the Black Bear Caravan outside Amba City. But it was not in vain. During the day, Shao Xuan and Guangyi went out to hunt, and the prey they brought back would be sent to the Black Bear Caravan's people.

After five days like this, I still haven't heard of the caravan.

"Is something wrong?" broadly worried.

Although the trading teams of tribes were not necessarily the same every year, they were only a few days, so they would not be too staggered. In the past, there were rarely those who delayed too long unless something delayed the travel time.

Fortunately, I didn’t see anyone from the Taihe Tribe. If I only saw the Taihe Tribe but not the Yanjiao Tribe, it would be that there was a big problem with Yanjiao.

"Sustain to wait. If we still haven't seen them in another five days, let's go back first." Shao Xuan made a decision.

On the fourth day after Shao Xuan said this, Mao Da finally sent someone to inform them that the trading team between Yanjiao and Taihe had arrived, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with it. Shao Xuan felt slightly relieved in his heart.

The person who came to report the news brought Shao Xuan to a place outside Anba City, and accompanied him with the people who were transporting the goods. The trading teams in Yanjiao and Taihe brought a lot of fur, so they had to move the goods.

It was still the same place as before, in the forest, Shao Xuan saw the team led by Duo Kang.

Seeing that everyone was still well, Shao Xuan and Guangyi breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Shao Xuan and Guangyi, Duo Kang was also full of joy, "You are finally back!" The harvest is secondary, and it is best to come back alive.

"What's going on? The time I came here has been delayed a lot?" Shao Xuan asked.

The joy on Duokang's face slightly calmed down and he shook his head, "I'll talk about it when I go back. By the way, what are you carrying these?"

Guangyi commanded people and moved the millet and weapons from the Black Bear Caravan. When he heard Duokang's words, he couldn't help but show his glory: "It's all good things!" After saying that, he shouted to the people who were carrying things in Yanjiao, "Be careful to move!"

After the transaction with the Black Bear Caravan, after a while, the people in the trading team took the goods they had received back.

The team is getting bigger this time, and Shao Xuan is not worried about being robbed.

Although I met people who robbed the robbers in the middle, it was still smooth in general. On the way, Shao Xuan and Guangyi talked about the royal city with Duo Kang. Apart from the thousand gold grains, they also picked and said something else. Some things were not good on the way. In addition to the people from Yanjiao, there were also people from the Taihe Tribe around.

"What is the reason for you to delay the transaction this time?" asked Guangyi. He knew that Dokang didn't say it before, but just because he didn't want others to hear it. Now there are no people from the Black Bear Caravan here, Dokang doesn't have to hide it anymore.

"The salt matter," said Duokang, "It was because some troubles occurred in the salt mine that we and the people in Taihe delayed the transaction time."

Most of the salt used by the tribe is obtained from a salt mine. The salt mine is divided by five tribes, and the others who cannot get the cake can only trade with these five tribes. The Yanjiao tribe and the Taihe tribe are two of them, which is the result of the battle for the salt mines that year.

In addition to the two tribes of Yanjiao and Taihe, the other three are the Liehu Tribe, the Shanfeng Tribe, and the Sen Tribe; Shao Xuan knew about this.

"Is it solved?" Shao Xuan asked.

Duokang shook his head. "The Liehu Tribe and the Sen Tribe want to occupy the salt mine. The Shanfeng Tribe has fought with them, but the Liehu and the Sen people are very determined this time, and they have also found some allies, which is not easy to deal with. No matter what, let's talk about it when you go back, and see how the leader decides. If the war is about to start, you have to prepare well this winter."

"Yes." After hearing this, Shao Xuan and Guangyi became serious. Starting a war is not a trivial matter, especially it also involves five tribes.

When he finally saw the not-so-high mountain in Yanjiao, Shao Xuan's tense nerves were relaxed. Whether in the royal city or on the road, he always had to be on guard. He would only feel relaxed when he got here, as if he had removed the load.

There were some children feeding ducks by the river in front of the tribe. When they saw the return trading team, they all shouted and ran over to greet them. There were some of their elders in the team.

"Elder, Elder Shao Xuan!"

A child ran towards Shao Xuan, looking so excited that he couldn't stop immediately even when he ran to Shao Xuan.

Shao Xuan took the child up and sat on his shoulders. People in the tribe often did this, including the leader and Duo Kang, so sometimes Shao Xuan would do the same thing as them.

This little brat Shao Xuan knew that he was the second person to touch the duck egg from the river. It was rare for others to touch it. He touched it the first time he went into the water, and later he was very active when feeding the ducks.

When Shao Xuan took her shoulder and sat down, the child seemed a little cramped, and then he was very excited to take out an egg from the pocket inside his clothes.

Duck egg?

"There are still eggs at this time?" The duck eggs that can hatch have little ducks. These wild ducks don't expect them to lay eggs frequently. After all, they have not been domesticated yet. Apart from the fixed egg laying period of one or two times a year, they basically will not grow eggs again.

"I picked it up by the river!" The child's eyes lit up and he handed the egg to Shao Xuan.

Shao Xuan took the egg and looked carefully. It was not damaged, but it didn't seem to have been born for a long time.

"Old egg, no, ginkgo," Shao Xuan asked the child on his shoulder, "When did you pick up this egg?"

"Just this morning, in the grass by the river." The kid named Ginkgo raised his hand to show Shao Xuan.

There are many ducks swimming there, and there are new ducks. I don’t know which one was born.

"There are still eggs at this time?" Duokang was also surprised. The little ducks had grown up a lot. They didn't hear anyone picking up eggs when they were in the tribe. Why is this kid so lucky?

"Ginkgo, you can change your name to Baidan in the future, and pick up more eggs in the future." Duokang quipped.

Not to mention, the child really listened to it and thought that he would discuss changing his name with his family when he went back.

"When it comes to eggs, Shao Xuan, you go and see the green duck later." Duokang said.

"That green fat duck?" Shao Xuan was surprised, "What's wrong with it?"

It can also attract new female ducks, and the fat duck should be fine.

Duokang said "tsk" and didn't explain, "You'll know when you go and see it. Just in the duck shed at the foot of the mountain, the duck shed you specially built for it."

After crossing the river and entering the tribe, Shao Xuan put down the ginkgo and did not rush up the mountain, but walked towards the duck shed.

He found that during the time he left, there was a row of duck sheds near the river at the foot of the mountain, with some ducks of different fur colors moving inside.

When I walked into the duck shed specially built for the green duck, in addition to the small door that was specially used for it to enter and exit, the door where people entered and exit seemed to have not moved for a while, and a layer of gray had accumulated.

As soon as the door was opened, Shao Xuan noticed a murderous aura that was facing him. It was not strong, but it was obvious that it was more like a deterrent. However, this murderous aura quickly restrained again.

Shao Xuan looked over and saw that in the nest made of hay, the fat green duck was squatting there, with both wings spreading, as if covering something, but there were too many things under the wings that it could not cover it completely.

From the point exposed, Shao Xuan knew that under his wings were all duck eggs.
