Beasts Are Boundless

Chapter 110 Planting

Duan didn’t realize that he had changed at all, and looked at Ye Qiong with a puzzled expression, his two bear eyes were twinkling.

Ye Qiong continued to mumble a little bit in confusion.

Why does the long-tailed bear still grow horns?

Ye Qiong has lived such a long life. Apart from the three long-tailed bears in the tribe, he has only seen long-tailed bears from other tribes in the summer.

To be honest, it is no different from Dakui and Guoguo.

But Dakui and Guoguo didn’t have long horns, which Ye Qiong was very sure of, and the long-tailed bears he had seen before had clean foreheads and nothing but fur.

Why did Duan still have a horn come out?

Although it doesn’t seem obvious now, if you don’t look closely, you won’t find it at all.

Mutations?

Ye Qiong raised Duan’s big face, and under Duan’s still puzzled gaze, he looked up, down, left, and right, but couldn’t see anything unusual.

The spirit is not bad, except for losing some weight, nothing else has changed, Ye Qiong can only put this matter aside for now, and give all the jerky of the king lion moose that he carries with him. stay.

Now the king’s lion moose only has a few dozen pounds of meat left, and it will be finished in a short time.

Duodao stuffed a few pieces of jerky from the king lion moose into his mouth. This jerky was definitely not enough to eat.

After swallowing the dried meat of the king lion moose, he looked at Ye Qiong blankly.

He fiddled with his gigantic forehead a few times, except for the small horn about two centimeters high that grew out between the eyebrows, there was nothing unusual about it, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong.

Ye Qiong can only observe and observe first, and then talk about it after a while. If there is anything unusual, just find a pair of scissors and cut it off.

Taking Duo Duo on a trip to the place where the tribe stores dried meat, Ye Qiong took out some jerky from the king lion moose himself, and then gave Duo Duo a lot of jerky from the king.

After Dian Dian was full of food and drink, Ye Qiong took Dian Dian to the north wall.

The Dinglong Mountains are to the east of the tribe, and when viewed from the city wall on the north side, it towers into the clouds.

On the north side, there is already a road that leads to the coal mine.

Ye Qiong has been idle in the tribe for two months. The research on the steam engine gave Ye Qiong a headache.

The main reason is that iron is relatively scarce. The iron tools collected in the tribe in the past are basically used to make weapons, and the remaining small parts are also used for hunting or making city defense traps.

Ye Qiong wants to build a steam engine, and needs to consume a lot of smelted iron.

It can only be put aside for a while, and after the spring, collect more iron, or let their caravans go back to the tribe one by one.

There is no currency on Xuexing now, in an era of barter, dried fruit and dried meat are relatively easy to exchange.

These two things are actually the currency in circulation on Xue Xing. Just like the rice in Ye Qiong’s world, food can measure the value of currency.

So in other words, food itself can also be understood as currency, because it is a necessity, but it is very inconvenient to carry. When Ye Qiong was a child in his last life, he could still carry rice to the school to exchange for food stamps in the canteen , the kind of food stamps are the same as those bought with money. Ye Qiong is now waiting for the beginning of spring, and then frantically collecting supplies, but now the Ye Qiong tribe can get it, but it is not food.

On Xuexing, the value of dried fruit is far greater than that of meat. Although the Ye Qiong tribe has stored several large pits of meat, it is too cheap to exchange the meat with other tribes.

For dried fruit and food, the tribes themselves don’t have enough now.

After thinking about it, in addition to dried fruits and food, the Ye Qiong tribe has another valuable thing that can be traded, and that is coal mines. There is a prerequisite for trading coal.

That is to let other tribes on Xuexing see the value of coal.

Once their other tribes discovered the value of coal, then the rest was settled, and the Ye Qiong tribe had a great fortune.

If you want to develop civilized technology, if you don’t have huge funds to reserve, it is pure nonsense, you will be stretched, and you will talk about the development of bullshit.

Therefore, the mining of coal cannot be stopped. When the coal starts to play a role in the future, every piece of coal mined is money!

But apart from coal, Ye Qiong has one more thing that must be prepared, and that is land!

Ye Qiong has been preparing for the land that can be planted for three years. From three years ago, Ye Qiong was collecting and storing some food seeds intentionally or unintentionally.

There are a lot of edible fruits on Xuexing, but Ye Qiong has not found any crops that can be planted. This kind of thing is really difficult to get for a while. If you can find corn and barley, it will be perfect. .

It’s a pity that Ye Qiong has never seen these two crops, or similar ones, since he came to this world. He thinks that 80% of them don’t have them, so he can only find other crops that can be replaced.

The requirement is to be able to sow in spring and harvest in autumn.

Although no such crops were found, Ye Qiong still stored a lot of fruits and some seeds that could be used as vegetables.

Now we have to find a piece of land and prepare it.

Ye Qiong stood on the tower on the north side of the city wall and began to look around to see where the terrain was flatter.

After looking around, I saw the ice wall of the tribe behind the northern city wall.

After the ice wall, there is a hot spring, and before the ice wall, it is the location where the mad crowd attacked last time.

Ye Qiong looked around again and found that this place was indeed suitable. Before the population of the tribe did not exceed 10,000, there would be a lot of free space within the stone city wall.

These places are quite suitable for temporarily planting some annual vegetables, and the fruit trees that grow and bear fruit all year round need to be planted outside the city walls.

As long as these crops can be planted and grow well, they will play a very decisive role in Xuexing civilization.

There are seven kilometers of stone city walls vertically and horizontally, and the area enclosed is about 300 acres of land.

And if 2,000 people live together, a dozen acres of land is enough. The pyramid that Ye Qiong is planning to build is still very high.

Like the world where Ye Qiong lived in his last life, within a skyscraper, over 10,000 humans can easily live in it.

After choosing the location, it is necessary to dispatch some second-tier soldiers to prepare. Before the spring, the dark passages and city defenses on the side of the ice wall should be dismantled, and then handed over to the first-line soldiers to be placed outside the stone city wall. .

After the land is leveled, when spring starts tomorrow, the crops can be planted directly, and then wait for the experimental results.

Ye Qiong called a poor warrior beside him, and after instructing some things, he jumped directly from the tower on the city wall with Duan.
