On the second day, two dwarves and two mentors drove to the Norchester Mountains to investigate the ore veins with a team of four knights of several gnomes and Agasi, twenty guardian warriors, six elven guards, and a team of more than forty people. After the last Xiaohu incident, Xu Zheng didn't dare to be careless about security issues, and the few people in the lead were his closest people, so he added a lot of guards.

After Xu Zheng and Lu Se and others sent them away, they carried out routine manor inspections.

Later, from the stationing point of the Dragon's Throat, Xu Zheng named it the Cape of Watch, and good news came from there. The Starlight Song and Dance Troupe of Blue Silk has begun to make money, and there is a faint tendency for its prestige to expand with the spread of the merchants. At the same time, there was another good news, Chuck didn't know how to sell the paper, and while he made a net profit of 5,000 gold coins, he also bought 200 iron tools, including 50 pickaxes, 20 shovels, 20 saws, 80 iron axes, and 10 hammers and chisels.

Two hundred simple iron tools are a great way to arm the manor with a lot of neatness in the current situation of the Orson Manor. It also meant that the first transaction of Orson Manor was completed, and the paper was no longer just bartering with gnomes and elves, but began to truly obtain other goods. At the same time, it also meant that the initial trading channel was found through which the products of the estate were promoted through the merchants, and all future trade activities began with this.

Xu Zheng was overjoyed, and excitedly invited Ruther and Gwen to give Chuck a hard note. and publish the matter in the next issue of the newspaper, nominating him as the next candidate for citizenship of the eighth class.

At this time, the population of Orson Manor had reached 2,6900 people, and orcs still accounted for more than half of them.

This raises a number of problems. The orc race is accustomed to living in the wilderness, and these habits of eating, drinking, and pulling away are simply completely natural and primitive. Just take a look around the stilted building where the orcs live now. You can see the gnawed bones all over the ground, the vegetable leaves that have been picked and thrown away, the peels of breadfruits, the sewage that has been spilled everywhere, and other used garbage, not to mention the yellow and white things that can be seen everywhere after the completion of the reincarnation of the five internal organs.

Such a shocking thing is placed there in the open air with a very flamboyant character, colorful, varied, and full of horror effect. It can be classified as one of the eighth wonders of different time and space.

Xu Zheng struggled to see the stitches in these strange remaining incriminating evidence, and walked forward. Suddenly, he stepped on the ribs of an unknown animal, and he stumbled unsuspectingly and almost fell. At the moment when Yang Tian was about to fall, Xu Zheng slapped flexibly on the ground. Feng twisted his waist, rolled in mid-air, and fell back to the ground vigorously.

Notting's eyes burst into brilliance, and he shouted: "Good!" This action is really chic, without any mud and water, and extremely handsome.

"Good for your size!" Xu Zheng said angrily. His whole movement is indeed chic, the problem is that at that moment of beating, there is no choice of where to start. A bunch of mines are being struck.

Suddenly there was a burst of juice splashing, and gold was everywhere!

"It's stinky! we're not going!" Starbader, Camilla, and Luki, the three girls, immediately flashed and ran away like the wind. The action was so fast that the shadow could not be seen for a moment. Camilla, in particular, was wearing a long skirt and was so frightened that she stood outside the minefield, and at this time she ran the fastest and rushed to the front. Looking at the backs of the three girls, I was only afraid of the leap of the elves. The charge of the Terran warriors and the flash of the phantom of the demons were all used without concealment.

Xu Zheng raised his hand, and slapped the golden marks of being blown up by the mine, and the smell was so bad that he wanted to chop his hand off.

Nordin was also very embarrassed when he saw it, and said, "I'll get you some water...... and ran away.

Xu Zheng stretched out his hand farthest from him and held his breath. I hate myself for not being able to get home.

Glanced up. Suddenly shouted, "Mark, stop!"

Mark stopped. Holding one leg in the air, he looked at Xu Zheng blankly.

"Watch out for mines under your feet"

Mark looked around, it wasn't just a mine under his feet, if he went any further, it would be a minefield at all, and with the size of his own foot, no matter how he saw a needle, he would be hit if he stepped into it. Xiao Chu has lived in the crowd for a long time, and has studied human living habits for a long time, and these habits have long been changed. At this time, when I saw the bad habits of the clansmen, I also scolded them, and I didn't know what to say.

Lu Ther pinched his nose with one hand, instinctively fanned his nose in front of his nose with the other, and said in a muffled voice: "It's good that the eldest prince didn't come with him, otherwise he wouldn't have to eat dinner today." I bet he had never seen such a grand scene in his life!" Then he timidly asked, "Xu Zheng, shall we continue to move forward?" To be honest, to continue to move forward in this minefield, it is really impossible to move forward without great unnecessary courage.

Xu Zheng couldn't bear it anymore, and he didn't wait for Nordin, desperately recalling the water polo technique. It took a while to make a water balloon to clean your hands. Under the urgent need, the diameter of the water ball formed by the condensed water element reached half a meter, which was a hundred times stronger than Garcia's fireball technique, which could not teach Xu Zheng to live or die. This person's first successful attack spell was actually forcibly broken through the learning under such circumstances, and anyone would laugh out of their big teeth when they said it.

Xu Zheng shook his hand, always feeling that there was a psychological shadow, and the gold on it didn't seem to have been washed. Glaring at his hand in disgust, Xu Zheng said angrily: "Go, how do you go? There are mines all over the ground, and if you go any further, anyone will be blown to pieces!"

Nordin came back with the leaves holding the water, and when he heard Xu Zheng say this, he felt even more embarrassed, and said cautiously: "It's none of my business, but I clearly remember the Zhuang rules: the first rule of the Zhuang rule, no open defecation." Second, wash your hands before eating, rinse your mouth after eating, check the enemy's situation before using the toilet, pay attention to concealment, and wipe your buttocks with paper after using the toilet. I can promise it myself, but I can't guarantee anyone else...... Everybody is used to it......"

Xu Zheng pinched his nose and sighed. The fact that such a spectacular scene can appear is inevitably the result of the collective efforts of many people. Can you still do DnA signing one by one, and determine which pile belongs to which master? There is a way that the law does not blame the public, and a few can still deduct his gold coins fiercely, but so many people collectively planted mines together, you can still pull them all out and chop them all?

Sighing again, his work is not doing well, many necessary work facilities have not kept up, and the common sense of health of the orcs has not kept up, and it is not surprising that such a situation will occur due to the results of both sides.

waved his hand at the moment and said, "Go back to the meeting hall, some work has to be done immediately." ”

Back in the council hall, I started drawing without saying a word. Two hours later, Xu Zheng asked the three Balil brothers to call the orc steward.

Soon, the three elders of the Tiger Clan and Baghdad arrived.

"Little farmer, what's the matter?"

Xu Zheng took the drawings and asked, "I heard that some branches of the orc clan are also very good at plowing the ground, right?"

Pelton nodded: "Both the Tiger Clan and the Leopard Clan will." When we live in the wilderness, we sometimes make a temporary hole in the ground to shelter from rain and lightning. ”

Xu Zheng nodded and told him what he had just seen in the orc area.

Baghdad didn't feel it painfully, Xu Zheng squinted at his expression, and estimated that he was very likely to be one of the perpetrators. Maybe the mine he detonated was planted by this man. Thinking like this, I couldn't help but hate him in my heart, and I wanted to catch him and beat him wildly.

I thought about it again, the old habits are the long-term living habits of the orcs, living at the bottom of the society, food and clothing are all problems, how can we still pay attention to these? But now that the conditions are slowly getting better, these long-term habits should be changed, but we should not be too concerned about this matter, bad habits should be slowly channeled, and forcibly breaking them will lead to a bad backlash.

Thinking of this, he said in a gentle tone: "Elders, do you know why although the orcs are physically strong, why the mortality rate is always higher than that of the human race?"

Elder Karan said, "The living conditions of the beast clan are poor, and the mortality rate is of course high. ”

Xu Zheng nodded and asked again: "This is the reason for one thing." How many people die each year from the disease?"

Elder Kahlan replied, "Nearly half, and the orcs over thirty years old are more obvious on the surface. If there is an outbreak of plague, more than half of them will die. One year, there was a great plague outbreak among the leopards, and all the leopards had to take refuge in the tigers' camp. ”

Xiao Chu nodded, he met him when he was a child, and he remembered it deeply.

"Okay, let me analyze the reasons for this. Xu Zheng said: "First, unhygienic food and unclean water sources, after eating and drinking, will cause illness and be seriously fatal." Throwing garbage everywhere and defecating in the open will seriously deteriorate the living environment, they are a breeding ground for the plague, which can be triggered at any time. The non-violent factor of the beast tribe is inseparable from these two points. ”

It's not that the orcs don't understand these truths, but they can't find an effective way to solve them. The three elders all nodded, acknowledging that Xu Zheng was right.

Elder Jeridah said, "In this case, I will do my best to restrain my people and do as you say." ”

Pelton clapped his hands and said, "If you don't obey, you'll be fined!" This man has been addicted to fines since he came to Orson Manor.

Xu Zheng shook his head and said, "It's not enough. ”

The three elders were stunned and asked, "What else do you have to do?"
