Many wild pepper trees were discovered around the Denggao Tribe, growing into a forest.
They already knew that adding crushed pepper while grilling could improve the flavor.
Ma Lin collected more than fifty pounds of pepper here, thinking he had found another trade good.
He taught them how to make pottery and stew meat, adding ground pepper to the pot.
He was sure that pepper would be very popular in other tribes.
To improve the efficiency of teaching various skills, he was extremely busy every day, working tirelessly.
He knew that primitive people's learning and acceptance abilities were quite limited, so he had to be particularly attentive as a teacher to motivate his students.
He had often seen some tribes that were not very interested in learning these technologies.
Things like firing pottery and crafting bows and arrows could be learned by watching just once.
But weaving and textile-making required hands-on practice.
