Chapter Fifty-Nine: Lighting the Fire and Lighting the Smoke

The next day, in the early morning when the cold wind was howling, the door was opened, and Aunt Shan walked in early in the morning in the wind and snow.

"Patriarch, get up, go and rest in my house for a while!" Aunt Shan said kindly.

"Hmm...... Aunt Shan, why are you here? "Wineasy woke up from sleep. I had already woken up when the door opened, but when I saw that it was Aunt Shan, I continued to close my eyes and fall asleep.

"It's almost dawn, everyone is about to get up and work, I'll prepare breakfast for everyone, and there will be a few people from the tribe to help later, I'll come here to open the door first, and the patriarch will go to my house to rest first." Aunt Shan said.

"Well, no need, I'm taking a break, and I'll work with everyone later!" Ying Yi said with a smile, he was already up and couldn't sleep, and he still had to repair the house.

Seeing that Ying Yi said this, Aunt Shan stopped persuading and began to work with a familiar road. Soon, Mrs. Shi and several women from the tribe also opened the door of the house and came in to help!

These people should be Aunt Shan's helpers, after all, to make breakfast for everyone in the tribe, Aunt Mountain and they must be too busy to work alone.

Aunt Shi and the others were also surprised to see Ying Yi here, and later learned from Aunt Shan's innermost house that Ying Yi's house was destroyed last night and slept here all night.

Everyone was surprised, some of them knew that the house where Ying Yi rested yesterday was destroyed, but they didn't expect Ying Yi to rest here for a night.

"The patriarch of the self family is so good to them!"

Everyone sighed in their hearts.

The people of the Qin tribe began to walk out of the door and carried out a day's work, for them now, the life of the Qin tribe is really good, in this ice season, they can be full every day. And all of this is now being brought by the patriarch who is waiting for everyone!

Ying Yi is waiting for everyone at this time, and the current Qin tribe no longer needs to be supervised as before.

Everyone would spontaneously assemble, run, and clear the snow, which was a familiar daily task.

Yingyi's house was also repaired with the efforts of everyone, and the people of the Qin tribe were extremely positive about it, and soon a brand new house appeared in the eyes of everyone.

At this time, Ying Yi was preparing to go to Uncle Lao Shan and Mu Lao to see if they had any good methods and suggestions on how to gather more people.

After all, "three stinkers, one Zhuge Liang", "there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure." ”

Thinking of this, Yingyi quickened his pace and walked towards the house where Uncle Shan and Mu Lao, who were usually located.

Since the beginning of the ice season, Yingyi has stipulated that the elderly, women, and children in the tribe are not allowed to go out. After all, the weather, the elderly, women, children, and the frail! and the population is now the most valuable wealth of the Qin tribe.

Mu Lao and Uncle Lao Shan, as well as some old people from the tribe on the side, were sitting around a brazier bar, chatting about something. Seeing that the door was opened, Ying Yi walked in from the outside, and everyone got up together.

"Patriarch!"

"Patriarch!"

"Patriarch!"

......

Everyone bent down and saluted, apparently with respect from the heart.

For the simple people of the Qin tribe in the house, since joining the Qin tribe, not only can they eat enough every day, but they also have meat every meal. In the cold ice season, the patriarch also prepared braziers, ondols and other winter supplies for them, and life is getting better and better.

Who are the most likely people to die during the ice season of the Great Wilderness? Undoubtedly, it is the frail old people, children, and women in these great wildernesses.

They are full of pessimism and despair in the face of the arrival of the ice season, because they don't know if they can survive the whole ice season.

It was the arrival of Yingyi that gave them hope and gave them a light to dispel the darkness.

With the contact with this young patriarch, this magical patriarch gave them a lot of surprises. With the killing of the Black Barbarian Demon Bear and the victory over the Blood Wolf Pack, the success of these two wars also established the status of Ying Yi in the hearts of everyone in the Qin tribe more and more.

"Everyone, let's get busy first, I'll look for Uncle Lao Shan and Mu Lao, they have something to do. Ying Yi walked in, waved his hand and said to everyone.

"Yes!"

Everyone respectfully answered, and then began to get busy again.

Looking at the old mountain uncle and Mu Lao in front of him, Ying Yi stretched out his hand to roast it, and said to the old mountain uncle and Mu Lao on the side.

"Uncle Laoshan, Mu Lao, the population in the tribe is really small now, which is not conducive to the development of the tribe, I want to increase the population in the tribe, do you have any good way?. ”

For the two old men in front of him, Ying Yi is very respectful, the former is naturally needless to say, the latter has also developed adobe bricks for the tribe, and in the daily affairs of the tribe, he has helped Ying Yi a lot.

"Patriarch, if you want to increase the population quickly in the Great Wilderness, the fastest way is to annex other tribes. ”

Uncle Shan pondered for a moment and replied.

In the great wilderness, there have never been truly good people, their goodness will only be directed against their own tribe and their own people, and when they reach a certain height, they will be directed towards their own tribe. As the old saying goes: "If you are poor, you will help yourself, and if you are good, you will help the world." "It's better than that.

"Uncle Shan, do you know where there are tribes around here?"

Ying Yi asked.

"Haven't we explored it before, and we haven't found any other gathering places nearby yet. Ying Yi shook his head and said.

Ying Yi had thought about this for a long time, but they really didn't find any gathering places nearby.

"This ......" Uncle Shan was also a little distressed at this time.

"Patriarch, not discovering it doesn't mean that there is nothing, the great wasteland is vast and sparsely populated, people like us are in a difficult situation, and the living environment is generally very hidden. Mu Lao said on the side.

"Is this the only way, isn't there a better way?"

"There is also the fire and smoke, but the people recruited in this way are basically the old, weak, sick and disabled, or desperate, and there are very few strong men in the wilderness. ”

"Igniting a fire, smoking?

Ying Yi was stunned, obviously not impressed by this method at all.

After careful inquiry, Ying Yi realized that this fire and smoke were a way to gather the homeless population in this great wilderness, but few people used it.

The so-called ignition of smoke is actually to burn some wet wood in a high place to create a high column of smoke, which can be seen from a distance, which is actually similar to a coordinate lighthouse.

And when the wanderers in the Great Wilderness see the pillar of smoke, they know that there is a human population there, and those who are desperate or hungry will gather in that direction to try their luck to see if the tribes there can accept them.
