189 Thousands of miles of vast prairie

Seeing that recruiting farmers was very effective, Purple Bow Changfeng actually succeeded in recruiting a new NPC farmer at once, and couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Ha, this is too easy!" It turned out that the management and construction of the village was so simple, and I always wondered how other villages could recruit so many farmers. This is easy to do, I can fill the population of our village in two days. ”

"Don't be in a hurry to recruit so many farmers, it's the right thing to let Ba0 Village and Ma Tayin Mountain Village hurry up to transport the grain, otherwise you will suffer. You start by recruiting five or six peasants to build three thatched huts. When the grain arrives, it can expand rapidly. Recruit more than a dozen farmers to go to the nearby woods to cut timber and mine. ”

Zhan Xiaobai told the Purple Bow Changfeng about the workflow, and the Purple Bow Changfeng nodded again and again. He didn't know anything about this, and he was right to listen to Zhan Xiaobai's promise. He stood by the jade in the small courtyard and waited for the peasants to be brushed.

The deputy village chief, the peasants, and the newly recruited peasants, were all stunned and didn't know what to do.

Zhan Xiaobai urged the newly recruited peasants to build thatched huts.

He asked the deputy village chief farmer to modify the management settings of Xiaohei Village and add an elder Keqing: Xiaobai. (Keqing: Non-local players or NPCs.) ）

In this way, he has the management authority second only to Xiao Hei and the deputy village chief, and belongs to the elder level like Purple Bow Changfeng.

Purple Bow Changfeng didn't say anything when he looked at it, just smiled.

By the end of the evening, the early preparations for the small black village were completed.

The fence was repaired, and the small beasts around the village were cleared, and two thatched huts were built. The first batch of 200 catties of grain from Matayin Mountain Village has also arrived, giving Xiaohei Village the ability to rapidly expand its population.

By the next morning, Xiaohei Village had twenty farmers. Ten were assigned to cut down trees and build new buildings. Ten began digging the surface of the small black village in search of a mine. Xiaohei Village is located in a remote hill col, the nearby surface is mostly rocky, sandy and gravel, and only a small piece of land is suitable for farming.

Some fragments of stones have been dug up by farmers one after another, mixed with gold, silver, copper and other components, but the main vein has not yet been found. The discovery of these fragmentary ores has greatly strengthened the confidence of Xiaobai Village, Ba0 Village, and Matayinshan Village, at least their early investment can earn back the capital.

Zhan Xiaobai estimated it, according to the current process. It will take some time to find and dig out the main veins, and then the mining farms will be built, the ore will be divided, and even refined. I'm afraid that it can't be completed in a short period of time, and I won't be able to achieve much in ten days. On top of that, it takes some specialized craftsmen to process the minerals further.

Zhan Xiaobai didn't have so much time to stay in this place, and he had to rush to the grassland to participate in the event. After he finished explaining the matter to the Purple Bow Changfeng, he took the nine people from Xiaobai Village to say goodbye to everyone and went to the prairie.

Grassland.

Zhan Xiaobai, A Fei, Lu Shan, Zhou Meng, Cheng Jian, and five members of the light and dark team traveled a long distance and gradually entered the base camp of the Qiang tribe - Xiqiang. Going deep into the Xiqiang land, the gentle mountains are undulating, and the soil is gradually fertile. The pasture grass on the grassland has gradually become plump from loose to suitable for large-scale grazing.

Zhan Xiaobai saw the undulating grasslands and endless mountains and pastures, and couldn't help but admire, "Xiqiang is a good place!" Not to mention anything else, let's build a ranch here and raise a large group of cavalry, it's absolutely no problem, how much food can be left. Moreover, the territory is large, and it is also good for training cavalry. ”

Ah Fei said excitedly: "Big brother, do you think there are any red rabbit horses on this grassland?" If we have a red rabbit and sweat and blood in our hands and form a red rabbit and sweat and blood cavalry team, it will not be majestic. The whole world has to look up 90 degrees. Which Lu Bu and Guan Yu came out, and when they saw us, they only had to stare at us. They are only one horse, and we have more than ten horses as soon as we appear, and we can make them half angry without fighting. Then get a group of tough NPC generals and bomb them in turns, and Lu Bu will have to fight down when he comes. ”

Zhan Xiaobai laughed: "That's a good idea. But then we have to turn over the entire grassland of nearly a million kilometers in Xiqiang, I'm afraid we can make up ten or twenty red rabbits, sweat and blood. We're busy, and the territory of thousands of Qiang tribes on the grassland has to be turned over one by one. Ah Fei, why don't I send you to all parts of the grassland to find red rabbits and sweat and blood? ”

Ah Fei hurriedly shrunk his neck and laughed: "Don't, I don't have the ability to do this." I can't find my grandson born. ”

Behind the light and others have been to the grassland, and they are more familiar with the situation here.

The light smiled behind him: "Boss, if we can really build a ranch here, of course it will be a good thing." It's just that the Qiang people refuse to allow the player to build a village on the grassland, and the player village is absolutely not visible on the grassland. Even if a player comes from other places to build a village, it won't take a day to be scrapped by the Qiang tribe. ”

The old hunter Lu Shan said: "Not bad. The power of the government is limited to Liangzhou, and it cannot control the prairie of Xiqiang on the edge of Liangzhou. The Qiang people have lived on this grassland for hundreds of years. Adults want to build a new ranch here, but I'm afraid it's difficult! ”

Zhan Xiaobai nodded slightly, there must be difficulty. However, it is artificial, and the system has made various restrictions to restrict players from developing on the grassland, which is naturally purposeful.

But he also didn't believe that there was no crack to drill into. If he can convince Beigong Boyu, the great chief of the Qianghu tribe, to allow him to build a pasture here, things should be easy. If the Qiang people refuse, there will be some trouble.

Behind the light, he said: "Although the Qiang tribe refuses to allow players to build villages here, they will not kill players at will. Players can do other things on the grassland, such as leveling, doing business, fighting monsters, and blasting raw materials. If you're lucky, you might even be able to collect precious snow lotus. So in the grassland, you can see a lot of players leveling up. And many of them are advanced players from afar. You want to get precious herbs, horses, bison skins, and other items on the grassland. The village chief of Ma Tayin Mountain Village made a fortune by relying on his skills to tame wild horses. This is the only one in the village with the largest income. ”

Speaking of taming horses, the players couldn't help but look at Lu Shan. Because among the people, only the old hunter Lu Shan will have this skill. The purpose of their trip is to rush to the wild horses, and whether the harvest is big or not depends on whether Lu Shan's unique skills are strong or not.

When the old hunter Lu Shan saw everyone looking at him, he couldn't help but say happily: "The old man's taming skills are much stronger than that little man, and there are no wild horses on this grassland that the old man can't tame." As long as we can take root in this grassland and have a stable pasture, the old man will be able to tame the wild horses and come back immediately. The horses trained by the old man are not a problem to march and fight. ”

The crowd laughed.

"With Lu Lao's bold words, I am relieved."

They walked with laughter and laughter, and occasionally saw herds of 20~30 wild sheep, 30~40 bison, and 20~40 wild horses along the way. There are hundreds of them in large numbers, and they can range from tens of thousands. None of these things are easy to mess with, the huge bison is crazy, even the Qianghu cavalry can't stop it, and it must be avoided from its edge.

Players can only watch from afar, not daring to kill the huge group of wild animals, but can only hunt those lone wild animals.

It is easier to deal with dozens of groups of more than 20 wild donkeys, which have low attack power and are easy to kill. There are also herds of 30-level wild camels and the like. If a level-up player on the grassland encounters a large area of herbs growing on the grassland, they will also collect herbs and sell them for money when they return to the player's village.

Zhan Xiaobai saw a small group of wild camels in the distance, and was quite interested for a while, pointing to the group of camels and asking Lu Shandao: "Old Lu, will you tame wild camels?" ”

Lu Shan was stunned for a moment, "Camel? What are they trained to do? It's too slow to be used for war. ”

Zhan Xiaobai explained: "Camel cavalry is a type of army in the desert. Grasslands and plains are rarely used, and neither the Qiang nor the Han people use this type of troops, but the people of the Western Regions do. ”

Lu Shan said: "It's good to tame the old man of camels, but he doesn't know much about camel cavalry, and he can't train the kind of camels that can fight camels." The old man heard that hundreds of miles after the Xihai Sea in the hinterland of the Xiqiang Land, there was a big desert, and perhaps there was this camel cavalry. ”

Ah Fei was curious, "What big desert?" There is also a large desert in the steppe? ”

Zhan Xiaobai said with a smile: "That's the desert of the Qaidam Basin, west of Qinghai Lake. ”

Ah Fei suddenly said, "Ah, I almost forgot." I said, where did a desert come out! This Xiqiang land can't be Qinghai, right? The West Sea should be Qinghai Lake! ”

"That's right!"

The crowd laughed.

Ah Fei pestered and asked, "Where is the nest of Beigong Boyu and Li Wenhou?" I heard that they are Huangzhong righteous followers, what does that mean? ”

As a Di person, Lu Shan knew a lot about this, and said in a somewhat respectful tone: "The tribe of these two great chiefs occupies the most fertile grassland in the Sun Moon Mountain in the Huangzhong of the Xiqiang Land. They are the most powerful Qiang tribe on the grassland, with tens of thousands of armor. This grassland honors these two people. ”

Ah Fei smacked his tongue, "Damn, there are tens of thousands of armor, the Qiang cavalry is so fierce, and there are so many people, so it's not God blocking and killing God and Buddha blocking and killing Buddha, no wonder you dare to provoke a 'chaos'." ”

They talked about some things on the prairie as they walked, unrestrained, but not boring.

Suddenly, there were some chaotic hooves and neighing horses in the distance, and I saw nearly a hundred players on horseback, chasing and intercepting a fiery wild horse leader. The leader of the fiery wild horse galloped wildly, and everywhere it hit, everyone turned their horses on their backs, and nearly a hundred and ten players on horseback couldn't stop it.

Some of the leading players were yelling, "Stop that handsome horse, quick!" Don't let it run! "Don't be stupid, intercept from the right." "And a few of you, intercept from the left." "The big guy is working hard, and he must not fall short today!"
