At present, Huangsha Town is remote and in the desert, there is not much land that can be cultivated, and food is relatively scarce. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Most of the food sources in the town are imported, and some foreign merchants bring goods over, and they can generally be sold here at a better price.

This is also thanks to an iron mine near Huangsha Town, there were originally many slaves mining, but the scale of the iron mine is good, and there is a lack of manpower, so they recruit people from Huangsha Town, which is not far away.

Miners are paid, and due to the geography, they are paid more than in other places.

However, there was a shortage of food here, and even if there was a payment, they could not buy food, so the mineralists launched a 'kindness' and mortgaged the payment with grain.

From time to time, a little bit is deducted, and even so, the miners still have a little savings left in their hands, and the accumulation is considerable, so it attracts many businessmen.

Not only can they sell grain, but they can also buy iron ore, killing two birds with one stone.

After a period of development, the population of Huangsha Town has increased from less than 200 to nearly 1,000 people, and if it were not for food restrictions, I am afraid that it would be more.

Lin Xiao just went to investigate this time, and only pulled 2 carts of red fruits, about nearly 1 ton, not a lot.

Since he had to maintain suspended animation and could not ride a horse, he had to ask the workers to make a carriage, which was made very rudimentary and aged in order not to attract attention.

From the outside, it was just a very ordinary carriage.

After changing clothes, preparing enough water and horse feed, the group set off.

The oasis is less than 50 kilometers from Huangsha Town, which can be reached tomorrow, and everything is going well, not even the desert bandits have been encountered.

Even if he encounters it, he is not afraid, Lin Xiao still has hundreds of soldiers here, and there are more than a dozen scouts exploring the road in front, and the desert bandits are unlucky when they meet him.

It is less than 5 kilometers away from Huangsha Town, and further on, these people under his command are likely to be discovered.

But there is nothing to cover here, and there is no problem for soldiers to camp here for a short time, and they are likely to be discovered after a long time.

But if you let the soldiers retreat, if something happens, it will be too late to help.

Lin Xue seemed to see Lin Xiao's troubles, and said, "Brother, I know where to hide people. ”

Lin Xiao turned her head when she heard this, and motioned for her to continue.

"There is a small valley not far from Huangsha Town, because there are sand wolves infested, no one will go there at all."

"Then take me to see it first."

Lin Xiao didn't have any good places at this time, and it was still good to listen to Lin Xue's advice as an ontological person.

The group continued on their way, and soon found the valley three kilometers away, where a few animal bones could be seen on the ground.

It is not a problem for thousands of people to hide in this valley, and it is also very close to Huangsha Town, and the soldiers can arrive in no more than 15 minutes by firing signal flares.

Only a dozen plainclothes scouts were left behind to disperse them, and Lin Xiao continued to rush to Huangsha Town.

The land near Huangsha Town is very barren, and plants similar to wheat are planted on it, but the yield is far less than Lin Xiao remembered.

Pulling back the curtain of the carriage, he could see that the peasants working in the fields were curiously looking at his convoy, and after one glance, he continued to bend down and work.

For passing caravans, these peasants have become commonplace and do not pay much attention to it.

After passing through the farmland, you will come to the periphery of Huangsha Town, and you can clearly see that Huangsha Town is backed by a mountain, and the mountain is full of gravel.

Due to the lack of wood, gravel is everywhere, and the houses in the town are almost always made of irregular stones piled up, and the gaps are filled with loess.

This is still good after all, some of the low houses are all made of loess, covered with hay, and they are as simple as they are.

On the edge of the earthen wall, several guards were lazily napping, and when they heard the sound of horses' hooves, they woke up and breathed a sigh of relief when they realized that it was a caravan.

One of the guards, with a long sword at his waist, looked like the captain of these guards, and walked over with a few of his younger brothers.

The captain of the guard stood in front of the carriage and cautiously said to the guards in front of him: "These brothers, you need to check when you enter the town. ”

Although they have a higher status among the ordinary people in the town, they can only be people with their tails between their legs in the face of those nobles.

In front of this caravan, the equipment of those guards is better than that of him, the team leader, and it is not easy to provoke at first glance, so naturally he does not dare to offend.

It's a pity that the guards couldn't understand his words, and still ignored him.

When the captain of the guard was in a dilemma, Lin Xue walked out of the carriage and said, "I'm just here to do the grain business, don't worry about going and checking." ”

Hearing this, the captain of the guard was like an amnesty, and took his younger brother to the carriage to take a look, and only after making a show did he let him go.

He didn't want to get into trouble, so he was relieved to see the caravan leave.

"Captain, that girl just now is a bit like the little beggar in our town." A young guard couldn't help but say.

The captain of the guard slapped him and said, "Fart!" ”

"I've been with me for so long, I don't have any eyesight, and the other party looks like a pampered person, be careful of being heard picking your skin!"

The young guard covered his transparent face and nodded hurriedly, not daring to guess anything.

The town is small and divided into two main parts by a stone-paved street, with quite a few forks.

Walking along the street, you will see a market with vendors, selling groceries such as dry food on the left, and hotels on the right.

There were not many pedestrians on the streets, and the whole town was very calm, and Lin Xiao and his party became the ones who broke the peace.

Further inside, you can see a blacksmith shop, with knives, guns, clubs, armor, hoes, and iron pots.

Lin Xiao is not interested, the workers under him have built better, and these are naturally not eye-catching.

Opposite the blacksmith is a horse dealer who sells not only horses but also cattle for farming.

These cows are a little strange, they have only one horn and it grows on their noses, and this is not a big problem, it is enough to be able to plow the land.

Lin Xiao doesn't need horses, but ploughing cattle does, using horses to plough the land is a tyrannical thing, and if you have ploughing cattle, it will be better.

Now there is no need to rush to buy, he can wait until he goes back to buy, he is going to try to see if he can clone the cows, otherwise it will be too troublesome to bring them back, and the number of these cattle is not much.

If you retract your gaze and continue walking, it will be the courtyard of the Lord of Huangsha Town, which should be called a castle to be exact.

The castle also appears a bit abrupt and out of place with its surroundings, with walls cut out of neat bricks.

The city wall is only 3 meters high, and there are many spired watchtowers, and the number of guards can be clearly seen inside, and the number is about 30.

This is a location that the Scouts didn't touch, as they didn't enter the town.
