I don't know why everyone was very restrained for some reason for the meal that night, and when they finally went out, they were all sober and none of them were drunk, Ruya took Isidor directly to the Black Stone Workshop to rest, while Curry followed Kuchi to him. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The next morning, when Rua had washed up and sat in the courtyard to have breakfast with Isisio, Curry and Kuchi came together, and then ordered Fat Kerry to add two more pairs of chopsticks, but as soon as the two of them sat down, House also staggered over and said that he was also going back to the tribe, so the five of them gathered around a small stone table and had breakfast together.

After breakfast, Kuchi left the market first because of the expansion of the market and his own duties, and the four of Ruya drove towards the Blackstone tribe in two cars, one for Curry and Isido, and one for Ruya and House.

House was driving, Luya was sitting in the passenger seat, and the two didn't talk much last night because there were too many people.

"How was this time in the tribe, are you still used to it," Ruya said with a smile as he opened the car window and felt the air that already had a hint of warmth.

"Hehe, I thought it would be a little awkward for me to join the Blackstone tribe as a human being, but when I became a member of the Blackstone tribe, I found out..."

"What did you find?" Ruya asked, turning his head.

"But I found that all the clansmen are much kinder and simpler than you, hahaha~~" House laughed and looked ahead, and there seemed to be a glimmer of crystal in the corner of his eye.

"It's good that you get used to it, although I haven't been to a human city, but I know that you will never be as comfortable there as you are in the tribe," Ruya said with a smile.

"Well, don't talk about this, people from the Boulder Chamber of Commerce have been here during the time you've been away."

"Oh, aren't you just here to pull the goods?" asked Ruya.

"No, they also specifically asked about the Kuishan tribe," House replied.

"Kuishan tribe, hehe, they're quite well-informed, what do you say" Lu Ya asked, rubbing his nose.

"Hehe, I'm not a finance minister, I just told them that it was, and they wanted to inquire about the situation, and I didn't tell them," House chuckled.

"It doesn't matter, Black Rock City will continue to be built, what restricts our development now is the population and overall strength, do you have any good ideas" Lu Ya thought for a while and said.

"Hehe, that's what I'm a finance minister need to worry about, I just need to make money for the patriarch," House teased, but then he said.

"During the time you left, I discussed with Captain Berry and the old patriarch and spent a sum of money, speaking of which, there is another thing you may not understand, in fact, the food stored in the bazaar is completely enough for these small and medium-sized tribes around the bazaar to consume, but because those merchants collude with each other to raise prices, and even under the orders of their respective tribes, there is a lot of grain that will not be sold at a reduced price even if it is broken," House said slowly.

"Why?" said Ruya with a frown.

"Hehe, there are many reasons for this, the biggest reason is that those merchants can't give enough profit to their tribe when they sell cheaply, and if they sell cheaply, they will be condemned by other merchants, so... I got together with those grain merchants and discussed it, and this time I basically took away all the surplus grain in their hands."

"What do you want so much food for?" said Ruya.

"Of course not, besides, it's not a good time to brew a lot of 'Anxiety Relief' at this time, we can only talk about it later, after we buy back this grain, we will send more than half of our people to help give it to the small and medium-sized tribes around us," House shrugged and said.

"Uh, well," Ruya said noncommittal.

House glanced at Ruya and said with a smile, "Hehe, of course we have sent someone to see it beforehand, but we have sent life-saving food to those tribes who are really about to survive, and the rest of the grain is still sold to those small tribes at a low price in the bazaar."

"And then, didn't the merchants come to trouble us," Ruya asked

"Why, we're selling their grain at the original price," House pouted.

"Well, who made us stupid and have a lot of money" Ruya laughed to himself.

"You've got a lot of money now, but are you stupid?" Haus teased.

"Hehe, then my Minister of Finance, I don't know how much money I have now" Ruya looked at the little stars in his eyes.

"After removing the money for the grain, there are now four thousand seven hundred and fifty gold coins in the vault, my patriarch," House said with a smile.

"Hiss~ so much" Luya gasped.

"It's not much, the soap and the 'worry relief' in the two months of winter have not been earned, and the current output of the two things has also been raised, so the last time the Boulder Chamber of Commerce brought a full four thousand gold coins, hey~ I really don't know how you got these two things, I have never seen such a lucrative commodity in so many years" House shook his head and said.

"This is normal, monopoly is the most profitable, besides, why do individuals want so much money, what do you like to make money for" Lu Ya asked with a smile.

"I, hehe, I just like the feeling of making money, why, you're not going to be upset that we're spending money on you," House said, changing the subject.

"No, I know what you mean, hey~, they've spent this year, but what about next year?" Lu Ya sighed.

"We won't be able to manage it next year, the food is limited every year, and the grain in the market has been saved for three or four years to praise so much, even if we have money next year, we won't be able to buy so much food, and we still have to consume it ourselves, and we have to make wine" House also had a headache.

"Yes, I don't understand, why do you humans have enough food?" Luya wondered.

"This is actually very simple, because most of the human beings are gathered together, protected by the city, and the area near the city is always guarded by watching the beasts, and of course, the human race is better at farming than you."

"So you're saying the biggest reason is that the orc tribes are too scattered," Ruya thought.

"There is a large part of this reason, just like the stone tower tribe and Boulder City you go to, they will not lack food, and the lack of food is all you small and medium-sized tribes, but I think farming is also a technology, the same piece of land can grow a thousand catties of grain while the orcs only have a pitiful two or three hundred catties, plus your orcs generally have a much larger appetite so~"

"Yes, and it's better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish, and it seems that I will have to work on this when I go back," said Ruya as he lay on his chair with his eyes closed.

"What a fish?"

"It's nothing, let's drive, hehe"

Compared with Lu Ya leaving at that time, the road conditions at this time are obviously much better, basically there is no snow on the road, of course, this is also inseparable from the close contact between the Black Stone tribe and the market, near noon Lu Ya and others came to the kiln camp, House parked on the side of the road at the request of Lu Ya, and then the two got out of the car and walked to the front of the camp.

"Brother Ruya, is this your tribe, what are those smoking pillars in the distance" Isidor thought he had arrived at the place, and looked at the brick kiln in the distance that kept emitting a lot of smoke and dust.

"This used to be our base camp, but now it's a small camp, and those smoking pillars can't tell you the secret, hehe," Ruya replied with a real smile.

"The patriarch is here~"

"The Patriarch is back"

"Inform Captain Blaiff"

The guards on the arrow tower finally saw the faces of Lu Ya and his party and shouted.

"Squeak~~" The heavy wooden door was opened from the inside, and then the voice of Berry came out of the inside.

"Patriarch" Bai Lifu walked up to Lu Ya in a hurry, and after standing still, he first gave a military salute.

"When did you come back, Patriarch," Berry asked, glancing at Isidor and Curry behind Ruya.

"I just came back today, Uncle Bailiff, I heard from House that you are here on duty for the past two days, so I will come to see you first" Ruya was in a very good mood after seeing Berry.

"Oh yes, let me introduce you, this old man is the father of Big Brother Kuchi, you didn't see him last time in the bazaar, but this time we finally met, hehe, his name is Isidor is a good brother of Kuchi,"

"Hello Deputy Commander Curry" Obviously, Berry also knows Curry's identity and shows great respect.

"Well, these are the soldiers you brought out, they're very good," Curry's eyes stayed on the soldiers standing tall behind Berry, and the admiration in his eyes was intense.

"Yes," replied Brown after glancing at Ruya.

"Good, good, good" Curry shouted three good words in a row.

"Uncle Berry, would you like to go back with us?" asked Ruya.

"Wait for these two days, you go back first, the old patriarch, they are very worried about you" Berry refused Ruya's proposal.

"Okay, I'll go back first"

After leaving the kiln camp, the four of them continued to set off, and the road from the kiln camp to the Black Rock City was much easier, at that time, Lu Ya had instructed Xiao Qi and Rip before leaving, and asked the two of them to communicate and discuss the problem of road construction in the kiln area and Black Rock City, because with the initial completion of Black Rock City, the transportation of materials between the two places will be closer in the future, so that the original dirt road can no longer meet the use.

According to Ruya's idea, he was going to build this road into a cement road, but the kiln area of Rip has been fully supplying the iron old man's steel plant construction, so he can only send people to clean the road first, and first pave a layer of kiln slag according to Ruya's requirements. After less than two months of construction, Luya found that the road had been paved with finely crushed slag, and the previous uneven dirt road had been bulldozed.
