Chapter 463: Physically and mentally exhausted
Although Wu Zhongyuan had already expressed his position, Wu Huan was still angry, "It's really unreasonable, this matter must not be settled with them." β
Wu Zhongyuan didn't answer Wu Huan's words, got up from his seat, and left the tent.
To say that he is not angry is to deceive himself, Jiang Zheng clearly knew that the Black Widow and his party were here to defect to him, and they also played a conspiracy to beat the Black Widow's idea, which was essentially treacherous and self-interested.
But when he is angry, he can also understand Jiang Zheng, Jiang Zheng is definitely not right to do this, Jiang Zheng himself must know this, if it were in normal times, Jiang Zheng may not rob the black widow, but the previous war with the bear clan Niu clan used 100,000 troops, and the loss of grain and grass after a few months must be extremely serious, and now not only the bear clan is facing the dilemma of lack of food and rice, but the cattle clan is also facing the same problem, Jiang Zheng has no choice but to make this decision.
"It is said that the dog bullies the master, although the black widow is an outlier, since she came to Da Wu is her own person, the Niu clan clearly did not take Da Wu in their eyes. Wu Huan said loudly.
Seeing that Wu Huan was indignant and angry, Wu Qin secretly glanced at him, Jiang Dahua was next to him, although Jiang Dahua is now her own person, but the Niu clan is her old club, Wu Huan scolded the Niu clan, Jiang Dahua must be awkward in her heart.
Wu Zhongyuan walked in the front, Wu Qin and Wu Huan followed, Jiang Dahua and the old doctor walked last, Wu Zhongyuan could hear Jiang Dahua and the old doctor talking in a low voice, Jiang Dahua was confirming whether the old doctor would be wrong, and the old doctor replied in a low voice, "The three protrusions of the patient's inch are indeed the auratic characteristics of Sanhuasan." β
Wu Huan had already shut up, and when he heard the conversation between the two, he couldn't help but speak again, Wu Zhongyuan frowned and turned his head, shaking his head at him. Wu Huan understood, forcibly held back, and did not speak.
Not long ago, he just helped Jiang Zheng recapture the White Dragon Pill, and the Niu clan immediately made such a scene, and no one would feel comfortable in his heart, but compared to anger, Wu Zhongyuan was more worried, as the so-called Cang Liao knew etiquette, food and clothing were enough to know honor and disgrace, in modern terms, the material base determines the superstructure, people can do anything when they are not full, and all benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith will be left behind, and the top priority is to develop agriculture and try to solve the problem of food and clothing for the clansmen.
Black Widow's tent had multiple braziers placed in it, and Black Widow had lost so much blood that she was still in a coma, while the Flower Lady and several women were watching over her.
Wu Zhongyuan tested the pulse of the black widow, and visited the meridians, and made sure that the black widow was fine, so he took out a qi tonifying pill from his waist bag and handed it to the flower lady, and instructed the flower lady to feed her.
Although the Black Widow was an alien, it was a woman's body, and it was inconvenient for several big men to stay in its tent, so after a short visit, Wu Zhongyuan left the Black Widow's tent.
The flower lady followed and thanked everyone one by one.
"My lord, there are a lot of dead and wounded in the daytime, and the rest of us can't take care of so many livestock, can you summon someone to come and drive the cattle, sheep and livestock away first? The flower lady said to Wu Zhongyuan.
Wu Zhongyuan turned his head to look at the flower lady when he heard this, and the flower lady said again, "The cattle and sheep we offer are all selected, but the road is too far, the forage supply is not enough, and the hunger is a little thinner, but the number is still enough, three thousand heads are only a lot more." β
"Thank you. Wu Zhongyuan said that the black widow had promised to give him 30,000 catties of bronze, 1,000 horses, 3,000 cattle and sheep, and a large part of the team of more than ten miles were livestock.
Wu Zhongyuan turned his head to look at Jiang Dahua, "The cattle and sheep will be handed over to your livestock grazing, and someone will come and drive them away as soon as possible." β
Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, Jiang Dahua looked at Wu Qin, and without waiting for her to speak, Wu Zhongyuan said again, "The black widow also gave us a thousand war horses, 30,000 catties of bronze, cattle and sheep for you, and the war horses belong to Wu Qin Dongyuan, and the copper and iron will be handed over to Li Wanzi to smelt and build." β
The two nodded yes when they heard this, thanked the flower lady, and left overnight to summon people back to the city to greet them.
After Wu Qin and Jiang Dahua left, Wu Zhongyuan ordered Wu Huan to rush back to Youxiong as soon as possible, he was not worried about Wu Di, worried that in case of an accident, she would not be able to control the situation, so he sent Wu Huan to assist.
After everyone left, the flower lady presented a gift list, in fact, the black widow prepared a gift for him far more than copper, iron and livestock, there are many other things, including a large number of jade and a variety of rare treasures, the gift list is too long, Wu Zhongyuan looked at it at a glance and ten lines, and finally his eyes stayed in the last column of the gift list, a hundred pairs of rabbits.
"What is Hu Tu?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.
The flower lady replied, "Lord Hui, this is a kind of rabbit from the Western Regions, the size is larger than the mountain rabbit in the Middle Earth, it is easy to raise, only feed on wild grass, it can grow to seven or eight catties in half a year, the mountain rabbit in the Middle Earth gives birth to a litter every year, but the rabbit can give birth every month, and it is much more cost-effective to raise the rabbit than to raise cattle and sheep. β
"It's a good thing, take me there. Wu Zhongyuan put away the gift list, as the saying goes, if you don't know the price of firewood and rice, all he is thinking about now is how to solve the food and clothing of the clansmen, don't let the clansmen starve.
Under the leadership of Hua Niangzi, Wu Zhongyuan soon saw the rabbit on the gift list, the so-called rabbit is actually a modern carnivorous rabbit, black-haired, at this time the mountain rabbit has not been domesticated, and there is no habit of raising rabbits in Middle Earth, even if the mountain rabbit is occasionally caught alive, it can not be raised, and the hare is temperamental and cannot be domesticated.
Seeing these black-haired rabbits, Wu Zhongyuan was overjoyed, this thing and mice are close relatives, all belong to rodents, a month can be a litter, a litter of seven or eight, this hundred pairs of rabbits than the fox family's 100 days of rice is larger, due to the fast breeding, can be quickly popularized, the elderly and children can be raised, the black widow is really a charcoal in the snow.
Wu Qin and the others have already left, the flower lady is still injured, Wu Zhongyuan can only stay here to protect everyone, so many things have happened one after another, whether it is physical strength or energy, he is seriously overdrawn, plus he has not closed his eyes for several days, and he fell asleep when he returned to the tent.
Because of something on his mind, he didn't sleep steadily, but the fifth watch woke up, sent his thoughts, sensed the location of Dasha and Huang Mao'er, and made sure that they had gone to Youxiong, so he sent Dasha back to continue to open the way.
Then he established an induction with the third master, and ordered it to go to the major walled cities of the bear clan, and the third master had seen the purple qi master of the bear clan in the morning hall of Daqiu, and if there was an urgent business in the future, he could send the third master directly to pass it on.
Just as he was about to walk out of the tent, Wu Lanqing walked in from outside under the leadership of the black widow, the black widow lost too much blood, her face was very pale, her vitality was greatly damaged, and it was not an overnight effort to recover completely.
He sent Wu Lanqing to Snowman Ridge to confirm whether Bai Qianshou really existed, and the news that Wu Lanqing brought back was that there were indeed many huge caves in Snowman Ridge, but most of the caves had been abandoned, and only a few caves were inhabited by a small number of white-haired giant apes, but they did not have aura cultivation.
The news brought back by Wu Lanqing further confirmed that this matter was planned by the Niu clan, and it was the Niu clan who found someone to pretend to be Bai Qianshou and provoke the thieves in northern Xinjiang to go south to chase down the black widow and others.
As for why the caves of Snowman Ridge were abandoned in large numbers, others don't know why, but he knows that the snow monster once attacked Daqiu that day, and was bravely resisted by the Daqiu warriors, and finally the snow monster suffered heavy casualties and returned with a feather.
After rushing to Wu Zhongyuan's life, Wu Lanqing rode a bird back to Youxiong, and Wu Zhongyuan walked with the convoy.
For Wu Zhongyuan to lead the crowd to help yesterday, the Black Widow was very moved, it didn't know that the purple qi masters of the bear clan just happened to get together, only when Wu Zhongyuan specially summoned the purple qi masters in the clan to come to save it.
Wu Zhongyuan did not take the opportunity to take credit, but explained the real situation to the Black Widow, and after listening to Wu Zhongyuan's explanation, the Black Widow admired him more and more, in all fairness, he is not a good person, but even if he is a bad person, he will respect those upright gentlemen with an open mind.
At noon, the men and horses sent by Jiang Dahua met the convoy of Yinmahe, drove away the cattle and sheep, and took away ten pairs of rabbits by the way.
At noon, Wu Qin led the people back, handed over the horses to the warriors and grooms to drive away, kept his own convoy, and led the people of Yinmahe to the resettlement site.
Wu Qin is back, Wu Zhongyuan can go, there are still a bunch of things waiting for him to deal with, after leaving the convoy, he went to Jiumu first, saw Li Wanzi, and asked Li Wanzi to send someone to pick up the 30,000 catties of copper and iron brought by the Yinma River, according to the current weight unit, 30,000 catties is only fifteen tons, and a truck will pull it, but at this time, there are only carriages, and they are all wooden wheels, and 30,000 catties can be carried by dozens of carriages.
Li Wanzi already knew what happened to the bear clan, Wu Zhongyuan was in the position of Great Wu, she was happy from the bottom of her heart, but more of her heart was distressed, not to mention that she was clear-eyed, even an ordinary person could see that Wu Zhongyuan was overworked and physically and mentally exhausted.
Told Li Wanzi to go to pick up the copper and iron, and gave him the Mu Ling Pill, Wu Zhongyuan wanted to rush back to Youxiong, but Li Wanzi saw that he was discouraged and depressed, so he didn't let him go anyway, and he had to leave him in Jiumu to rest for one night.
Wu Zhongyuan did not refuse Li Wanzi's retention, he was indeed very tired, there were too many things to worry about, and his energy was seriously overdrawn.
After dinner, took a bath, went to bed early, and got up early the next day, Li Wanzi had already helped him prepare a change of clothes, although he had been to Youxiong many times before, but he did not go as a big Wu, this time is different from the past, he must freshen up and dress up, and face his people in the best condition.
This sleep is not in vain, after waking up the brain is much clearer, and remembered another thing, delineated the route, ordered Li Wanzi to send people to the east to build a road, cooperate with Dasha, as soon as possible to open the road to the Yiren city, only by opening this road Yiren can transport the large bow and crossbow out, in addition, although the Yiren have the technology to build a giant bow and crossbow but do not have enough metal, must cooperate with Jiumu and Jiulian, who are good at smelting metal, in order to popularize the giant bow and crossbow on a large scale, of course, the premise is to have enough metal, the current metal reserves are simply not enough, and you have to try to mine metallurgy in the futureγ
After leaving Jiumu, Wu Zhongyuan wanted to go north to catch up with Youxiong, but after traveling dozens of miles north, he changed his route to the east and went to the Yiren territory, he had to go to see the progress of Dasha's work, and by the way, he would tell the Yiren, lest they not know what Dasha was doing.
It turned out that his worries were unnecessary, the Yiren knew that Dasha was his mount, and at the beginning of Dasha's opening of the mountain and the road, they guessed what Dasha was doing, and sent a large number of clansmen to assist, Dasha could only carve out a rudimentary form of the road, and there was still a lot of later work to be done.
The work of repairing the road was in charge of Huang Youyun, the second city lord, and Wu Zhongyuan made a short stop, talked with her for a while, and told Huang Youyun that he had taken over the bear clan.
Huang Youyun was overjoyed when he heard this, although they were originally optimistic about Wu Zhongyuan, they didn't expect him to be able to take the position of Dawu in such a short period of time, Wu Zhongyuan took over as Dawu, and their backing became more and more solid.
Now that I've come here, I'll go back to Xinyue Island by the way, make sure that the monkey is not slacking off, and everything is normal on the island, so I turn around and go back.
It was dark early in winter, and it was already sunset when he rushed back to Youxiong, looking down at Youxiong from a high altitude, he couldn't help but feel sad, he had been back for two years, but it was not until today that he really returned......
