Chapter 18 Orcs are local tyrants
After a big battle, although Zhou Tian used various means to successfully annihilate the robbers who came to attack, but because of his previous methods, the two villages they lived in at that time were almost destroyed. Except for the half-orc village, which barely left an empty shell, the two villages and the back mountain that were originally adjacent to them have completely turned into a scorched earth. As a result, according to the situation at that time, Zhou Tian used his influence to successfully persuade those orcs to make the decision to live together.
Most of the original orcs lived separately according to their respective races, except for the half-orcs who lived together because of their particularity, purebred orcs like kobolds lived separately according to their blood.
So before that, when Zhou Tian met Parker and them, the kobolds lived on one side of the mountain, and the orcs lived on the other side, no matter what the situation, even when they cooperated with Zhou Tian at the same time, no one mentioned the matter of cohabitation.
That is, now, the Kotou Village has been burned down, and Zhou Tian has erected a lot of prestige, and in that case, it is only with the consent of those orcs that he made that suggestion. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, it would not be easy to get those orcs to change their habits.
But no matter what the reason, Zhou Tian succeeded in getting those orcs and kobolds to agree to live together, and then Zhou Tian believed that some other orcs who were not so good would come to him. Although there may be some skirmishes between orcs of different races living together, according to the current situation, Zhou Tian believes that his career will definitely develop better and better.
And taking advantage of the convenience of the half-orcs and kobolds preparing to live together at that time, Zhou Tian simply prepared to let them move directly, there was no corresponding conditions and timing before, Zhou Tian could not forcibly let those orcs move, and now with that condition, Zhou Tian hopes to plan the future territory.
It certainly doesn't matter if the small workshop like before, even if the orcs work in their own homes, as long as they can complete the work laid out by Zhou Tian, Zhou Tian is too lazy and has no ability to care about their other things. But if Zhou Tian's career expands, and he is really ready to build a factory or something, then in order to facilitate management, it will definitely not be suitable for the casual way of working like the orcs used to.
Zhou Tian must gather those orcs together and arrange the work together, and according to his idea at that time, it was better to let them live together. And if the orcs under his command all live together, if there is a hostile attack like last time, Zhou Tian can better gather the strength in his hands to deal with it.
As a result, after Zhou Tian informed Parker of the pros and cons of his plan, neither Parker nor Lao Niu objected to his arrangement. Finally, after taking a turn in the neighborhood, Zhou Tian and they chose to settle in a canyon a hundred miles away.
For Parker, it is not difficult to find a suitable place to live nearby, the only thing they need to consider is whether the place they have chosen is really suitable for living. Otherwise, if they find a place that is not suitable for people to live in at all, then the little savings they have in their village will definitely be exhausted sooner or later.
And just like the canyon they chose now, Parker was not unaware of its existence before, but no orc had ever thought of moving there before or after the village was built.
That is, now that there is Sunday, Parker and they don't need to think about the source of food, otherwise even if Sunday asks them to move there now, it is estimated that no one will agree to it by then.
The canyon is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it also has a certain area of open space, so there is no problem at all if you want to build a house or a factory. Even building materials are easier to obtain in the canyon than elsewhere, after all, the orcs still rely on stone as the main building material, and the canyon has more stones than the average mountain.
It's just that although the canyon has various advantages, but because there are not many creatures in it, when the orcs rely on hunting as the main source of food, there are no animals in the canyon for them to hunt, and the village can only starve to death if the village is built here, those orcs will not choose to settle here.
Of course, the Orc Empire can build a fortress in this kind of place, but it is obvious that only the Orc Empire can attack nearby 'neighbors', and few people can invade the interior of the Orc Empire. In addition, the orcs are good at attacking and don't know how to defend the city at all, even if they build it, they will build it in vain, and build a fortress inside themselves, so no orc emperor has ever made that kind of decision.
As a result, the canyon that Zhou Tian regarded as a treasure land, until they chose that location, no other orcs had ever set foot in that place. It is also for this reason that when Zhou Tian and Parker moved in together, while the rest of the orcs were busy building, Zhou Tian found a lot of good things in that canyon.
"This ...... This is the small leaf red sandalwood!" Looking at the giant tree in front of him that needed two or three people to hug together, Zhou Tian repeatedly identified it for a long time, and after confirming it with the ability of the supermarket, he had to admit that the giant tree in front of him that looked terrifyingly big was really the red sandalwood that took more than 800 years to mature in a round of five years.
"Eight hundred years has only grown a little bigger, how long has this tree grown? Eight thousand or eighty thousand years?" If it weren't for the ability to trust the supermarket, it shouldn't be wrong, Zhou Tian wondered if he was dazzled, how could there be such a huge rosewood? If Zhou Tian thought that the other world was full of treasures at the beginning, then after experiencing the treasure hunt before, Zhou Tian would have no such thoughts.
But Zhou Tian didn't expect that he didn't have that kind of thought, but now he just let him find such a heavy treasure, even if this thing is not sent to the earth, as long as he gets it right, he can also exchange it for a lot of CSB in the supermarket.
It's just that......
"Change a ghost! Now I'm not short of money, red sandalwood furniture! I have never used such a luxurious thing before, if you find a master with such a stake, you can directly make a whole set of furniture!" Just when Zhou Tian looked excitedly at the huge red sandalwood he found, a group of kobolds came directly to the red sandalwood, and they were ready to cut it.
Seeing the movements of those kobolds, Zhou Tian's face changed and he hurriedly shouted, "Wait, don't cut it!"
"Boss, what's wrong?"
"You know what this is? This is rosewood, what are you going to do when you cut it?"
Puzzled glanced at Zhou Tian, those kobolds didn't know what Zhou Tian was angry about, but after listening to his words, they still replied honestly: "Make a house!"
"Do...... Make a house? You're going to make a house out of purple wood?"
"But we've always been making houses out of this kind of heavy wood!"
“......”
After half a ring, Zhou Tian, who had communicated with those kobolds, realized that the other world was really full of treasures, and the only difference was whether you had the eye to find those treasures.
In the past, Zhou Tian thought that there was nothing valuable in those orc villages, but now after listening to the words of those kobolds, he realized that it was not that the orc villages were really poor, but that he himself had not found the right direction.
Who would have thought that in addition to using stones to build houses, most of the places that need wood such as beams are used in precious wood such as rosewood?
Just as before the price of wood on the earth was speculated, civilians only considered whether the materials were easy to use when building houses, and for the orcs, they didn't know what was small-leaved red sandalwood and what was Hainan Huanghuali? In the eyes of those orcs, wood with a close quality heavier than ordinary wood was good wood, and ordinary wood was okay for fire but could not be used to build houses. Because although the orcs do not have cement and steel bars, after a house is built, they may need to live in a generation or even several generations, and the houses that can be lived in by those orcs for hundreds of years will definitely not be immortal for a hundred years if they are not made of good wood.
After listening to the words of those kobolds, Zhou Tian was directly stunned.
"You orcs are such tyrants!"
