With the departure of the first expedition, the second expedition also returned shortly after, but this time there was no joy of returning, only nine of the thirteen people who went out returned, and four of them had been confirmed dead by those who had returned.

This bad news, like a basin of cold water, extinguished the restless mood of the clansmen, and they couldn't help but revisit this expedition plan.

Wang Lang was not surprised by the death of an expedition member, and if he wanted a high income, he had to bear the corresponding risks.

Wang Lang called the leader of the second expedition over and asked what was going on.

According to this man, the second expedition had been moving east after leaving the Hou tribe, and two days later they found a group of prey, but they happened to collide with a group of moa that were hunting, and they fled back after a desperate fight, and the four died on the spot.

After listening to the narration, Wang Lang was silent for a while, and said: "This mission will be very risky, you don't want to go out for the time being, if you still want to go out, let's get enough people together, but I don't want you to be hit by this failed experience to hit your confidence." ”

The leader of the second expedition nodded hungryly, and turned around a little lonely to leave Wang Lang's place.

After Wang Lang's inquiry, it was found that the wives of the four clansmen who died were all exchanged from the Fire Tribe not long ago, and it can be said that there is no affection between these couples and these couples.

In order not to waste resources, Wang Lang redistributed the four women, although this is very unkind, but if such a widow is given a pension, he thinks that it is not good for the dead clansmen, with the pension that he exchanged for his life, his wife will marry someone else in the future, and they will not be angry to die again when they know it.

Fortunately, this expedition is completely personal, and the clansmen also understand this truth, and they have no complaints about Wang Lang's arrangement.

The dismal whiteness of the second expedition greatly affected people's enthusiasm for the expedition plan, and no other expedition team appeared for a long time.

The tribe has lived an ordinary life, and there have been no major projects to do lately, and even the slaves are living at ease.

In addition to the lack of freedom of this group of slaves, with the increase in the variety of food with salt, their diet has also improved a lot, at least two days can eat a full meal, it can be said that compared with the previous hell, this is already considered happiness.

The fruit wine is still being made, with the continuous accumulation of experience, the taste of the fruit wine is much better than before, a small part of the fruit wine can be put in the trading post for sale, the unique taste of the wine, soon conquered the taste buds of the people.

Everyone will buy a little bit every once in a while to satisfy their appetite.

The first expedition team has been gone for ten days now, Wang Lang doesn't know where they are now, what happened, he is very worried in his heart, this time the first expedition team will be wiped out, if that is the case, it will be a fatal blow to this expedition plan, it is very likely that people will change color when they hear about the expedition in the future, which is the result he really does not want to see.

Wang Lang, who was worried, walked back and forth in the tribe irritably.

Wandering aimlessly, Wang Lang unconsciously came to the cucumber field.

After such a long period of cultivation, the cucumber field can now be said to have expanded many times, and the small yellow flowers blooming on the cucumber seedlings look particularly pleasing to the eye.

Bees flutter back and forth among the flowers.

Looking at this swarm of flying bees, Wang Lang suddenly came up with the idea of raising these bees.

With so many bees, as long as they are raised properly, they can produce a lot of honey, and Wang Lang knows that honey is a good thing.

Forgetting about the first expedition for the time being, Wang Lang found Mu Feng and asked him to make the beehive according to his own description.

Nowadays, after making so many tools, the carpenter's work has made great progress, and the things made are no longer rough, and they have begun to develop in the direction of beauty and practicality.

Mu Feng didn't ask what this thing was for, he knew that as long as Wang Lang asked for it, it would definitely be useful.

While Wang Lang was busy studying how to raise bees, in the depths of the jungle, after more than ten days of non-stop searching, everyone in the first expedition finally made a discovery.

At this moment, the members of the expedition team who were quite embarrassed looked at the strange plants scattered in front of them, and their faces were full of excitement.

"This thing is so sweet, it looks like it's worth it for us to kill that monster." One person said excitedly.

Zhao Dashu took out a dagger and cut a piece of this thing, peeled it, put it in his mouth and chewed it comfortably.

"This thing is so sweet, much sweeter than the Red Flame Fruit." Zhao Dashu said with great enjoyment.

If Wang Lang was here, he would definitely recognize this thing at a glance, this thing is sugar cane.

Not long ago, the first expedition team found this sugar cane after killing a large centipede two meters long that was entrenched here.

The sweetness of the broken sugar cane attracted everyone on the expedition, and after tasting it, they immediately fell in love with it.

"This thing must be favored by the leader." Someone said excitedly.

"But it's still two days away from the road, and we can't bring it back at such a distance!" Someone said with a sigh.

Zhao Dashu smiled confidently and said: "What's so difficult about this, you forgot, when the leader found the hemp before, he didn't bring back the mature hemp, just brought the seeds." ”

"That's right, just bring the seeds, I actually forgot about it, it's really stupid, or are you smart." The man patted his head and laughed.

"Don't talk nonsense, let's hurry up and get seeds, we've been out for so long, and if we don't go back, the tribe will think something happened to us." Zhao Dashu said in a deep voice.

Everyone nodded, without delay, and took off their pockets one after another, collecting sugarcane seeds diligently.

Three days later, the first expedition finally returned to the Horde.

When the tribesmen saw the return of the expedition, they immediately surrounded them, and this time they saw that they returned almost empty-handed, and they all thought that they had found nothing when they went out this time, and at the same time, they could not help but rejoice for them, but fortunately they did not lose their troops like the second expedition.

After Zhao Dashu came back, he directly led people to find Wang Lang.

Wang Lang couldn't help but sigh with relief when he saw them come back safely.

"It's good to come back safely." Wang Lang patted Zhao Dashu on the shoulder.

"Chief, we've heard about the second expedition, and the clansmen said you might want to cancel the expedition, is that true?"

After Zhao Dashu finished speaking, the members of the expedition team looked at Wang Lang nervously, for fear of saying the words they didn't want to hear from his mouth.
