241 Fruitful

"Lord Birodis is currently leading a cattle hunting team to hunt cattle in the wasteland outside, and the cave is now almost full. As a last resort, we have opened several new freezers suitable for storing beef. ”

Friday, the faithful dogleg, introduced the results to Xiao Feng, Xiao Feng nodded his satisfaction, and then went to the freezer with Friday first, and transferred all the hundreds of tons of beef into the space, after all, the freezer was full, and if they didn't clean it up, Birodis and they came back, and there was no place to store the beef they brought back.

This beef is brought to the modern world, but it is all money! There must be no waste!

"By the way, what about Bloom?"

Xiao Feng asked casually, and this time it was Knight Kyle who replied: "Go out on patrol, since the beginning of spring, our sentinels have been outside the city wall, and they have constantly found traces of half-orcs." Presumably, they were all spies sent by the orcs, who must have known our location, but they never sent a large army to attack, apparently wanting to know more about us. Recently, it was summer, and I discussed it with Bloom, and I didn't feel at ease, so he decided to lead the team outside to expand the patrol area, and once he found that an army of orcs was coming, he could also warn him early. ”

Xiao Feng was very satisfied that Bloom and Kyle could maintain such a highly vigilant attitude, after all, this was his foundation in the other world, and it was still worth reassuring to have such a person in charge of guarding him when he was away.

"By the way, what about the people of Yingzhou, what have you been up to lately?"

"They've built a few boats, and they've recently gone out with Lord Birodis to hunt cattle!"

Friday's answer surprised Xiao Feng very much, and seeing Xiao Feng's puzzled appearance, he quickly explained.

"So they went by water, and after Lord Birodis had led the team to hunt bison in the wasteland, they pulled all the cattle down to the river and loaded them onto the boats, which could carry more cattle and carry a lot of ice with them, so that the beef would not spoil. Once the ship was full, they could quickly transport the cattle back by water, much faster than by land. This can improve the efficiency of cattle hunting and expand the radius of cattle hunting. ”

Hearing Friday's explanation, Xiao Feng was really surprised, and he really underestimated the wisdom of the local natives, so quickly thought of the method of division of labor and cooperation, and sure enough, human beings who have been cultivated by civilized society will use their minds and wisdom more effectively.

No wonder the beef in the cave was stored so quickly this time, so much so that in order to expand the reserves, they dug a few more caves, which seems to be the result of a significant increase in hunting efficiency and radius.

"Very good, this time when they come back, I will give them credit. ”

Xiao Feng is very satisfied with the people of Yingzhou, and he can take the initiative to contribute to the base so quickly, of course such a person has to be entrusted with important tasks, not to mention that in the future, his caviar business, but he still has to count on these people to help.

"What about the dwarves of Groyin and Dean, what have you been up to lately?"

Xiao Feng asked about the recent situation of the dwarves again, and this time it was Kayla who introduced the situation: "Groin has been busy expanding his blacksmith workshop recently, Dean found iron ore in the nearby mountains, and the production capacity of his blacksmith shop has expanded a lot, and now we have so many more people here, and there is a shortage of iron everywhere, his blacksmith shop is very busy." Dean has recently found a lot of ingredient mines that you mentioned about cement, and has been developing cement production trial production according to the method you gave him, and has successfully produced a batch, all of which are used in road hardening, and he is also busy expanding production capacity. ”

After listening to Kayla's introduction, Xiao Feng was very satisfied with the results of the dwarves' work.

"What about the black elves, where are they, take me there. ”

Since rescuing a lot of black elves last time and learning that these guys are good at farming and brewing, Xiao Feng has regarded these black elves as an important part of his future career development.

In particular, the fine wine they make has brought him real benefits, and it is necessary to expand production capacity in the future, otherwise how can he expand in the modern world!

Soon Friday they took Xiao Feng to the Black Elves' workplace, because Xiao Feng had shown special attention to the Black Elves before, Friday and Kayla decided to divide a large living space for them on the east side of the cave platform.

Here, these black elves are not only responsible for domesticating cattle and sheep that cannot be caught in the wild, but also studying crop breeding, fruit tree planting, and winemaking.

Xiao Feng first inspected the cattle and sheep domestication breeding farm in charge of the black elves, although it was very simple, but it could be seen that the work of the black elves was very effective, at least those bison, wild horses, and wild sheep who had just been captured and came back, they seemed to be very tame now.

The fact that the livestock are all fat and strong, and that they can survive the winter without being greatly reduced due to cold weather or lack of food, shows that their work is very effective.

However, what interests Xiao Feng the most is the orchard that has taken shape at the foot of the mountain, in which many black elves can be seen working, and the leader of Majestic is constantly walking in the fields, looking at the work results of those black elves, once he finds something wrong, he will step forward to correct it, and even teach it with his own hands.

When he learned that Xiao Feng came to inspect, this Marcus came to Xiao Feng at a trott, and reported to him with a smile the results of his recent work.

"Thirty orchards have been cultivated, many fruit trees have been transplanted from the mountains, all of them are adult fruit trees, and now the main work is to control insects and pests, and the fruits have basically been hung, and it will enter the harvest season in autumn. After picking it, you can make sake directly, and I also have people pick a lot of fruit from the mountains, and I have already started to make wine. However, the quality of these fruits is relatively average, and the quality of the wine is estimated to be average. ”

Marcus has very high requirements for the quality of the wine, but for Xiao Feng, even if it is an ordinary quality fruit wine, in the modern world, it is already a rare delicacy for those who come into contact with this otherworldly fruit wine for the first time.

And this world is really blessed, those fruit trees that grow in the wild, have not been carefully cultivated artificially, but they can still bear sweet fruits, these black elves, don't even need to replant fruit tree seedlings to slowly cultivate, just need to transplant some fruit trees from the mountains down, if you let those fruit trees on the earth spend a few years to plant fruit trees, and have to be carefully served, so that the fruit farmers who bloom and bear fruit know, and must not be jealous to explode in place?

The news of Xiao Feng's return was soon informed by Bilodis, who was hunting outside, in the form of a flying pigeon on Friday, and the next morning, Bilodis and they returned to the base together on the boat of the Yingzhou people.

Seeing Xiao Feng standing on the shore with a smile, Bilodis plunged into his arms, after such a long time of getting along, Xiao Feng has long since changed from the original life-saving benefactor to her backbone.

After appeasing Bilodis, Xiao Feng saw Ying Ran standing in front of him, this Yingzhou general had darker skin than before, his body was a lot thicker, and the spirit of the whole person had recovered well, and it could be seen that the tribal life during this period of time had made him and the sailors recover well.

At this time, the sailors were carrying beef under the ship, and the beef was packed in large wooden barrels, and about a third of the ice cubes were placed under the barrels, which were covered with beef.

"My lord, the result of this trip to hunt for these things... ”

Ying Ran reported to Xiao Feng, and Xiao Feng focused his attention on the boat made by Yingzhou.

There are a total of three wooden ships, which are similar to the shape of ancient ships in China, but how to say it, there are still some different places, this ship is about more than 30 meters long, because this world is rich in tall trees, so it is not difficult to find a suitable shipbuilding keel.

Xiao Feng was very curious to board the boat, this ship uses sails as power, and uses hard sails similar to ancient China, but there are soft sails in the bow of the ship, keel design, and watertight cabins are also designed under the boat, and the most interesting thing is that both ends of the ship are equipped with rudders, so it is very flexible to change direction in the river.

The two sides of the ship are also designed with a female wall, which is prepared for combat, the whole boat looks down, that is, there is a little bit of the shadow of the ancient warship of China, and with a little bit of the color of the fishing boat, and the design of the two rudders, it is very similar to the ship of the Ming Dynasty of China, the combination of soft and hard sails, it is a fusion of the advantages of his Western ships and Eastern ships in the world, in short, this ship looks like a four, but in this world, it must be a very qualified inland river ship.

And it is very comprehensive, not only suitable for fishing and transportation, but also very suitable for combat, under the leadership of Yingran, after understanding the design of the whole boat, Xiao Feng couldn't help but sigh, he really underestimated the wisdom of the natives of this world.

Think about it again, the people of Yingzhou have been fishing for food in this world for hundreds of years, and this ship design must also have a lot of experience.

Although Xiao Feng doesn't know much about shipbuilding, he also knows that the current ship is only suitable for inland canals, and if the sea conditions are good, it can sail a distance near the sea, and if you want to set off to the ocean, you may need a lot of improvements.

But he is not in a hurry, these ships are local ships that Xiao Feng asked the people of Yingzhou to try-manufacture, the purpose is to understand the shipbuilding level of human beings in this world, and after understanding their ships, Xiao Feng will give them reasonable suggestions according to their shipbuilding technology level and guide them to make improvements.
