The day after the city wall was built, the Qingyan tribe and his party came over to trade under the leadership of Qingniu, and this time they brought only half of the ore from the previous time.

Qing Niu didn't even say a word during the whole transaction, including the people who came with him, after the transaction was completed, the group was about to leave with the fish on their backs, and Pan saw this and hurriedly stopped the group.

"Brother Qingniu, wait a minute."

Hearing this, a sly light flashed in Qingniu's eyes, and then a sad look appeared on his face.

"It's not that we don't want to trade more with the Xia tribe, it's just that our Qingyan tribe doesn't have much ore, if there is no ore, we won't be able to exchange food with your Xia tribe, and our leader is worried about this."

After speaking, Qingniu also pretended to sigh.

This guy thought that I stopped him because the amount of ore I traded was less, and in his heart, Qingniu seemed to be complaining to himself, but he was actually threatening himself.

If the Qingyan tribe runs out of ore, then the trade with the Xia tribe will be stopped, and it will be up to you to do if there is no ore at that time.

I thought about the joints clearly, and smiled in my heart.

Others don't know him, but he knows, at present, the copper ingots smelted in the tribe have been piled up in more than 20 warehouses, and it is ridiculous that the Qingyan tribe is clever and mixes some stones that do not seem to contain copper ore into it, but in fact, the copper content of these ores is more than that of ordinary copper ore.

Pan's heart sneered, such a big mountain, you said that you will finish digging it after digging, fooling you?

I thought so, but Pan's face showed a worried look, "Then your tribe's food should soon be out of food, right?" ”

What do you mean? Didn't this guy hear what I meant?

Qingniu was stunned for a moment, then sighed again, and said: "No, seeing that the food is about to run out, this is not it, we finally managed to come up with so many ores, so we hurriedly came over to trade." ”

In fact, Qingniu's words are nonsense, not to mention that the copper ore dug up by the Qingyan tribe is piled as high as a mountain, and the cattle and sheep in their tribe alone are enough for them to hold out for a month.

Since the beginning of winter, the Qingyan tribe has been dying people constantly, no way, this winter is too cold, not all tribes can think of such a way as making a ground dragon in their residence.

Fortunately, the people who froze to death were some old people and the infirm, and the warriors in the tribe did not lose too much. The massive loss of population has made it possible to eat food that is not much for longer.

"That's great...... No, I mean that's really unfortunate. Pan wanted to slap himself, why did he accidentally say what was in his heart.

"If it's okay, then we'll go first, the tribe is still waiting for us." The green cow turned around and was about to leave.

Seeing this, Pan hurriedly stopped him: "Brother, please stay!" ”

"What else?"

Pan replied, "That's right, didn't Brother Qingniu want to trade with our tribe before?" Our patriarch agreed. ”

Qingniu was overjoyed when he heard this, but he still pretended to be sorry and said: "That's really unfortunate, our tribe's ore has been dug up." ”

Pan smiled, "Who said we were going to trade ore?" Our patriarch said that if you agree to the trade, you can exchange it for a climbing plow for two hundred baskets of stones. ”

Xia Qi said at the beginning that each climbing plow should not be less than fifty baskets of rocks, but when he arrived at Pan, he directly sent four times.

"Really?!" Qingniu asked suspiciously.

If it was before, someone told him that he was willing to exchange things for a pile of broken stones, and he didn't want to believe it when he killed the green ox, but this scene happened.

Pan said with a serious face: "It really can't be true. ”

"Our patriarch also said that he is willing to trade with your tribe for ten baskets of stones for one basket of fish."

Qingniu still doesn't know that the Xia tribe is building the city wall, he just thinks that the Xia tribe is crazy, although he doesn't know the saying that there is no store after this village, but he also knows that if he misses this opportunity, he will regret that there is no place to regret going.

"I can't call the shots about this matter, I need to go back to the tribe and tell the patriarch."

Although Qingniu thought that it was impossible for his own leader to refuse such a condition, he could not make a decision on behalf of the patriarch, otherwise the consequences would be serious.

Pan nodded and said, "Yes." ”

After Qingniu and his party left, Pan Ma felt the construction site non-stop, at this time, the total number of people involved in the construction of the city wall had reached more than 1,500 people, no way, who let the conditions offered by the Xia tribe be too tempting?

At this time, a huge trench eight meters wide and about two kilometers long and as deep as a bear had been dug at the construction site, but these people were still digging downward.

According to Xia Qi, at least two bears must be dug as deep, and it is also said that it is to prevent someone from digging tunnels and entering the city from underground. Although he didn't understand it, Pan still carried out Xia Qi's task well.

There are many things that the patriarch has done that people don't understand, but in the end, it turns out that the things that the patriarch has done are extremely correct.

The engineering team was currently working on the south side of the camp, and the green cow was entering through the north gate of the camp, so they didn't know that the patriarch of the Xia tribe had come up with such a big project.

It is worth mentioning that because there is still Daxia Lake in the south, the inner city cannot be built, and the original camp can only be made into a structure similar to the urn city on the basis of the original camp wall.

When the time comes, it can be used as a commercial area, and a place to trade with other tribes, and people from other tribes can even spend the night here.

The city wall was busy, but Xia Qi was a little worried.

In less than two days, the construction team has reached more than 1,500 people, and maybe by tomorrow the number will be more than 2,000. But this number is less than one-third of the total number of tribes outside.

When these foreign tribes continued to join the Xia tribe, there were new tribes gathering there, and if all these people were absorbed, Xia Qi didn't dare to imagine what the Xia tribe would swell into in the end.

But the problem is that if all these foreign tribes are annexed at one time, not to mention the food pressure caused by this, or the impact of the friction of those foreign tribes, it is enough for Xia Qi to drink a pot.

But if the Xia tribe allowed those tribes to gather, then there might end up gathering tens of thousands or even tens of thousands, and they were all young and strong.

When the time comes, if any more people raise their arms and shout, they will gather all those tribes together, and take advantage of people's hatred of the Xia tribe to launch an attack.

At all times, on average, the people of the Xia tribe have to fight against a maximum of ten people per person, even if the Xia tribe has the most advanced weapons and equipment in this era, it is impossible to win, and even if it wins, it is only a miserable victory.

At that time, the Xia tribe, which was greatly injured, would either surrender to the Qingyan tribe or find a new camp.

As a player, it is absolutely impossible for Xia Qi to accept surrendering to the characters in the game, and Xia Qi is unwilling to find a new camp again.

Therefore, in order to avoid the above things from happening, Xia Qi had to think of a compromise solution, that is, to build a city wall.

The construction of the city wall to give hope to those foreign tribes not only avoided the problems brought to the tribe after the annexation of the foreign tribes at once, but also did not put the people of those foreign tribes in a desperate situation, and finally let both sides end up with a lose-lose situation.

But the problem is that as the population grows, so does the food in the tribe.

Xia Qi had asked Pan and the white wolf and others, the winter here is four to six months long, he predicts, this year's winter may be longer, now it is only more than two months into the winter, judging from the current food of the tribe, it is not enough to support the winter.

Of course, this is in the case of going out with the cattle, sheep and horses.

But these livestock Xia Qi is very useful, and he is not willing to eat them as food.

Therefore, Xia Qi decided to return to his old business and go to the world of other players to hunt some prey.

However, this time Xia Qi did not plan to lead the team personally, the affairs of the tribe became more and more onerous, and Pan had to be responsible for building the city wall with the Qingyan tribe, if he threw all other things to Pan, he was really afraid that Pan would end up picking on the wrong thing.

As for Xiong, this time I followed him at home to watch the house.

This guy is full of thoughts about doing things, if Xia Qi is there, he can still suppress him, if he is allowed to lead the team to other worlds, then it must be the same as Erha, just let go?

Looking for people to fight all over the world, I am afraid that even the tasks given to him by Xia Qi will be left behind at that time.

At present, Xia Qi has three major cadres under him, Xiong has one tendon, and Pan is so busy that his feet don't touch the ground, except for these two people, he is alone in the white wolf.

Compared with the bear, the white wolf is much more stable, and Xia Qi found the leopard as his deputy, so that the risk can be minimized.

The leopard used to be the patriarch of a tribe and had a wealth of management experience.

"Patriarch, don't worry, I will definitely complete the task you assigned!" The white wolf patted his chest and assured Xia Qi.

The white wolf was full of excitement, and since the bear returned from the outer world, he had been wearing a bearskin coat and swaying in front of the white wolf from time to time, which made him feel that the dire wolf skin that he had always regarded as a treasure was not fragrant.

In particular, the bear often screamed in front of the white wolf, saying that he had followed the patriarch, how many wild wolves he had killed, how many wild wolves he had fought against brown bears and black bears, and so on, which made him almost annoyed to death.

Now that it's finally his turn, and still leading the army alone, can he not be excited?

And the leopard is also full of excitement, although after surrendering to the Xia tribe, Xia Qi treats everyone equally, but the leopard can feel that there is a layer of separation between himself and the old people of the Xia tribe, this time, it is the best time to eliminate the separation by himself, so he is also busy expressing loyalty to Xia Qi:

"I will definitely follow the instructions of the patriarch and complete the task with the white wolf commander!"

Commander, this is a new title that is different from the patriarch and the leader, and there are currently only three leaders in the Xia tribe, namely Xiong, White Wolf, and Pan.

It corresponds to the three troops of the Xia tribe.

To some extent, these three people are the first people in the army after Xia Qi.
