Chapter 169: The idea of building a city

Xiao Ning and the Maiss patriarch Maiskoda reached an agreement, and the iron placer mine allowed Xiao Ning and them to continue mining.

But the condition is that Xiao Ning must help the Maiss clan to mine the iron ore in other places!

It's definitely a big project, and God knows how much iron ore there is in this place.

Ten days later, the people sent back by Xiao Ning to ask for help brought the large army of the Yilin tribe over, and there were 3,000 people!

These people were originally Xiao Ning who had planned for the worst and was ready to fight the Maiss clan.

But now it seems that there is no need for this, but these people have to devote themselves to other places, which is to help mine iron ore together.

Xiao Ning let half of the people go back, leaving only fifteen hundred people.

The Yilin clan also needs a garrison force, and all the people who come are young and middle-aged, and there is not much useful combat power left in the Yilin clan.

If someone suddenly attacked at this time, the Yilin clan would definitely be very uncomfortable, and Xiao Ning didn't want to see the Yilin clan that he had worked so hard to pull up be destroyed.

After this arrangement, Xiao Ning's manpower has 3,000 people.

Fifteen hundred people stayed behind to continue mining iron placer ore to make iron spears, and as a sign of sincerity, the Mais side would send some people to assist and help make the iron spears better.

There were also fifteen hundred people, sent by Xiao Ning to mine other iron ores.

The Maiss tribe also almost all went out, the whole tribe of 5,000 people, except for the old, weak, sick and disabled, all those who could carry a hoe, all went to help with mining, the youngest, only eight years old!

Nearly 8,000 people sweat on this iron-rich land, and the scene is extremely spectacular.

It is a big problem for 8,000 people to eat, but before this winter, Xiao Ning's Yilin tribe had a bumper harvest several times, and there were a lot of potatoes and sweet potatoes in the warehouse.

Xiao Ning's move made his favorability in the hearts of the Maiss clan rise sharply, and the patriarch Maisgao was also very satisfied.

"Old patriarch, how many iron ores are there in our land? In the past half a month, there must have been tens of thousands of tons of iron ore we have dug out, right?"

That night, Xiao Ning and Meisgaard had a few drinks, and then chattered.

"The iron ore content in this place is extremely rich, and it should be the richest on the entire desert island!"

"Xiao Ning Xiaoyou, I might as well tell you a secret, but this secret still needs to be verified. Maisgaard said.

"Oh, what's the secret?" Xiao Ning immediately became interested.

"Our ancestors are probably from the mainland! but they should be Europeans, not from the East. Maisgau said with his hand over his mouth.

Xiao Ning's eyes widened, and he leaned back, pulling some distance from Meisgaard.

Xiao Ning looked at Mysgau carefully, just like that, Mysgaard's appearance really looked a little like a Westerner!

He has a big beard, thick eyebrows, natural curly hair with some yellowishness, and a western face.

"But what evidence?" Xiao Ning asked.

"It's because there's no evidence that it's up for reference. ”

"The only evidence that can be counted as evidence is probably the rumors circulating in our tribe. ”

"Our ancestors crossed the sea to find this rich mineral area, but when they wanted to leave, they were stranded here. ”

"Since then, our ancestors have lived here for generations, guarding this mineral area, so that one day we can connect with the outside world and bring the wealth out of here!" says Mesgaard.

After listening to this, Xiao Ning nodded and said his analysis.

In the past, there were indeed many adventurers who embarked on the road to the ocean in search of treasure, and the ancestors of the Maiss tribe were probably these adventurers!

When they came to this desert island, they found a large area of iron ore, and they were very excited, but they found that they could not get out of this desert island, and God knows how fucked up they were at that time.

"What's more, our pure iron-striking craft has also been handed down from our ancestors, and there is no way to verify when we had it. Meisgaard continued.

"Is it to keep the secret that you may be descendants of the Lu people, so you have not allowed your iron tools to circulate outside?" Xiao Ning asked.

"Yes. Mysgaard nodded.

"Then why did you tell me this secret?" Xiao Ning squinted at Mesgau, not knowing what he had in mind.

"Because you are also a Lu person, I feel like I have found a confidant. Maisgaard said.

Xiao Ningwan, he didn't believe it, this was Meisgaard's true thoughts.

Xiao Ning felt that he still had to be more wary of this old man!

After a drink, Xiao Ning returned to the mine.

Although Maisgaard prepared a temporary residence for Xiao Ning in the Meis Clan, Xiao Ning was still used to returning to the mine to stay with the Yilin people.

When Xiao Ning returned to the mine, everyone who had been busy all day was already snoring like thunder.

"You're back?" Jiang Fei hadn't slept yet.

"Hmm. Xiao Ning nodded, and told Jiang Fei what he had talked about today.

After Jiang Fei heard this, he was also a little surprised, he didn't expect that the Maisi clan might be the descendants of the people who fell here.

"Actually, if the origin of the Mais tribe is really like this, I have to wonder if there were no humans on this desert island, but the descendants of groups of desert island victims took root here, promoting the formation of tribes one by one. Jiang Fei said.

"No, if it is as you said, the level of civilization of these tribes should not be so low, they should all be native. Xiao Ning shook his head and denied Jiang Fei's felling.

"It seems to be. Jiang Fei raised his head and thought about it.

"The Iron Spear affair is over, and I'm going to go back and make some more fried eggs, and I always feel like a storm is coming. Xiao Ning looked worried.

The appearance of Chen Bailian, Zheng Cheng and others let Xiao Ning know that there are still a group of ruthless people equipped with modern weapons on this desert island.

The Maiss are eager to hollow out all the iron ore, and there is some not-so-good information in it, so the Maiss must have had a premonition.

"Actually, we can build a city!" Jiang Fei said.

"Huh?" Xiao Ning's eyes suddenly lit up, what Jiang Fei said seemed to make sense!

City!

Nowadays, the concept of a city is blurred to most people, and cities are all connected to each other, and there are no walls at all.

But in ancient times, in order to protect their towns, they would build walls to defend against enemies.

Jiang Fei's words reminded Xiao Ning that he could build a city wall for the Yilin clan, and then dig a moat outside the city wall!

With the city, the Ilin clan will become easy to defend and difficult to attack! No matter what happens in the future, they will have the power to protect themselves and fight!
