In the following time, the city wall construction team increased by more than 500 people one after another, and more than 2,500 people were almost the limit. No tribes have migrated further north, perhaps because the weather is getting better, or because people further north have died on the way.

At present, outside the cordon drawn by Xia Qi, there are more than 1,000 people gathered, and these thousands of people are all diehards who refuse to join the Xia tribe, that is, they are honest now, but if they dare to think a little carefully, then what greets them is Xia Qi's thunderous means.

On the third day that the White Wolf was sent to the player world by Xia Qi, the green bull came to the door again, and at the same time he also brought a hundred baskets of rocks, as for the copper ore, it was a piece of nothing.

Seeing this, Pan asked, "Are the Qingniu brothers here to trade fish?" ”

"Nope." Qing Niu shook his head when he heard this, and said with a smile, "I turned to trade this time. ”

"I see, but brother, you don't seem to have enough of it." Panzhi refers to the rocks brought by the green cow and others.

Although the price given by the patriarch is that each climbing plow cannot be less than fifty baskets of rocks, but you must know that the price you gave to the green ox at that time was two hundred baskets of rocks per climbing plow, does this guy want to directly bargain in half?

Qingniu replied: "Brother Pan misunderstood, there are too many rocks, and we can't bring so many at one time, so we can only do this." Brother Pan rest assured, there should be someone coming over today. ”

"That's right." Iwa nodded.

Then Qingniu said to Pan with some embarrassment: "That's the case, the number of transactions this time is relatively large, the leader of my family means to let me watch here, Brother Pan, you see, it's inconvenient for brother to stay here for a while." Don't worry, brother, I will not trouble you. ”

After hearing his words, Pan laughed and said, "I thought it was something, Brother Qingniu is a distinguished guest of our tribe, these are trivial matters." ”

"Then I'll have to rely on Brother Pan to take care of me all these days."

Then, Qingniu turned to the person who came with him: "You guys go back first, I want to live in the Xia tribe for a while." ”

After listening to Qingniu's words, these people turned around and left without saying a word, and it was obvious that they had discussed this matter at the beginning.

Sure enough, in the afternoon, another group of people from the Qingyan tribe came with a basket of rocks.

After Pan counted the number and confirmed that it was correct, he immediately asked people to pull out a climbing plow and handed it to them, and a group of people from the Qingyan tribe showed a happy smile on their faces, and they didn't care about the last green ox to say a few words, and left with the climbing plow.

I don't know how wonderful the expression on Qingniu's face would be if he knew that according to Xia Qi's offer, these rocks they brought were enough to exchange for four climbing plows.

I can only say that I hope there will be no middlemen in this world to make the difference.

The rocks were already in place, and Pan found several climbing plows to transport the rocks to the construction site, and after a few people carried the rattan basket containing the rocks to the climbing plow, one of the rattan baskets suddenly scattered, and the stones inside fell one after another. If it weren't for the quick reaction of the person who moved the rattan basket, I was afraid that my feet would have to be smashed and broken.

"What's going on?"

"Commander, look!"

The man carrying the rattan basket suddenly bent down and pulled out a stone about the head of a man from the pile of rocks. The whole body of this stone showed a kind of yellow, and as soon as Pu appeared, it attracted the attention of everyone present.

Seeing this, Qingniu couldn't help but explain: "There are a lot of these things in our tribe, but they are too soft, just like mud." ”

After speaking, Qingniu emphasized again: "You only said that you wanted stones, but you didn't say what you wanted, but you are not allowed to regret it!" ”

"Brother Qingniu, don't worry, our Xia tribe has always been a good talker."

"That's good."

Qingniu nodded, Pan's words were a reassuring pill for him.

Then the man pulled the plough and prepared to take it to the construction site of the city wall, and he still held the yellow stone in his arms, and the green ox was idle, so he followed.

Although Qingniu made it clear that this stone was a scum, he thought that the patriarch had been looking for ore, so he felt that it was necessary for the patriarch to take a look.

At this time, Xia Qi happened to be on the side of the city wall construction site. During this time, a pit two kilometers long, eight meters wide and more than four meters deep has been dug, and the walls are smooth and the ground is level.

More than 2,000 people have done such a little work in such a few days, and it is not to be slow, but there is no way, the Stone Age is so efficient. It is necessary to burn the fire from time to time to freeze the land and ram the walls to make porcelain, which is very time-consuming.

"In four days, the white wolves should be back, right?"

I don't know what kind of world they entered this time, what season that world is in, and how many prey there are. Just when Xia Qi was thinking nonsense, Pan brought someone to arrive.

"Patriarch."

"Hmm."

Xia Qi turned his head, saw the stone in his arms at first glance, his heart moved, and asked, "Where did you get this thing?" ”

Pan replied, "Today, the Qingyan tribe came to trade the plough with rocks, and this was found in it. ”

Xia Qi took the stone from Pan's hand and looked at it carefully, and almost took a bite of it, and finally concluded that this was undoubtedly gold.

When he was in Lanxing, he was a poor bastard, and he had never even seen gold the size of a grain of rice, let alone such a huge amount of natural gold. At the thought that this thing was going to be built into the city wall along with those rocks, Xia Qi burst into laughter.

However, it is not to blame the Qingyan tribe for this, the texture of gold is softer than most metals, and it is a good hand to make luxury products, but in this era when most people are full, what is the use of luxury, it is not as good as a barbecue.

So when you think about it this way, you don't wonder that the Qingyan tribe disposed of it as garbage to the Xia tribe.

But Xia Qi is different, he is from Lanxing, and he knows that human society has changed from public ownership to private ownership, which is the inevitable choice of human beings. With the advent of private ownership, trading will come into being. In the economy, gold and silver are two mountains that cannot be bypassed.

Xia Qidu can imagine that after he implements the gold standard or silver standard, the prices of gold and silver will definitely rise. When the time comes, if anyone hears that there is a piece of gold the size of a man's head in the city wall, I am afraid that someone will take the risk and dig the corner of the city wall.

"Let's go, let's see, there must be ore like this in here."

Xia Qi thought of a sentence called gold and copper are not separated, and gold and the same are companions themselves.

Xia Qi found someone to find a clearing at the construction site of the city wall, and poured all the rocks there, and sure enough, Xia Qi found some rocks with gold spots on their bodies. Although it is not as eye-catching as the piece of gold, the content is quite a lot.

Qingniu looked at Xia Qi's movements, and he couldn't understand why the patriarch of the Xia tribe would attach so much importance to something that no one even looked at in the tribe. But if he didn't understand it, he didn't want to, and his attention was quickly drawn to the construction site of the city wall.

Such a big project can't be hidden from people at all, and Xia Qi has never issued a gag order, so Qingniu soon knew that the Xia tribe was preparing to build a city wall.

Because the Qingyan tribe believed that only cowardly cattle and sheep needed the protection of the fence, this tribe did not build a city wall. When Qingniu and the others first came to the Xia tribe, when they saw the wooden camp wall, they also had disdain in their hearts, thinking that this tribe was a group of cowards.

But as he interacted with the tribe more and more frequently, Qingniu found that it was not such a gray matter at all.

Looking at the fact that so many people are busy together now, I think that this city wall will not be small after it is finally built, and instinctively, Qingniu feels a little bad.

Looking at the stunned back of Qingniu, Xiang Pan asked, "By the way, you traded the climbing plow with the Qingyan tribe, what was the final transaction price?" ”

Although it was the first time he had heard the word "transaction price", he roughly understood the meaning contained in it.

"Two hundred baskets of rocks for a climbing plow." Pan replied honestly.

Ah......h

"Well done." When Xia Qi heard this, he gave Pan a thumbs up.

Can it only be said that this is the legendary monopoly? Sure enough, huge profits!

The winter was short, and soon it was dark, and the green ox was taken to his dwelling, and as soon as he entered the den, a wave of heat came over his face.

It is icy and snowy outside the nest, and the nest is as warm as spring.

The green cow took off his animal skin coat and lay on the warm bed, he wanted to say, is this heaven? Don't bother me, I'm going to sleep here for three days and three nights!

Soon, though, he had to get up.

Hearing the shouts outside, Qingniu had to get up and open the animal skin curtain at the door.

There were two men standing at the door, both of whom were following Pan, and Qingniu had met him a few times.

"This is the food that our commander specially prepared for the guests."

After the two men put the clay pot in their hands on the small table in the nest, they turned and left.

Not to mention, Qingniu has been running around in the ice and snow for so long, and now he is tired and hungry, so he opened the lid of the pot directly without thinking about it, and immediately, a fragrance directly entered his nose.

I saw two clay pots, one containing a roast leg of lamb and the other a pot of fish soup. Smelling the fragrance, the green cow's saliva couldn't stop flowing out.

Even if you are the leader of your own family, you are afraid that you will not eat as well as yourself, right?

The fragrance continued to bubble in the two clay pots, how could the green cow manage so much, directly grabbed the roast leg of mutton and ate it, choked on the food, took a few sips of the fish soup, and looked at the dishes and chopsticks on the small table as nothing.

As the patriarch, Xia Qi didn't do anything special, but because he knew that his patriarch didn't like to eat fish, the fish soup was replaced with stewed chicken soup with taro.

Xia Yan picked up a piece of roast lamb leg meat that had been sliced and put it in his mouth, chewed a few bites and swallowed it, and then sighed helplessly.

This lamb is very well roasted, and it doesn't have much smell, but the taste is too much and it is lighter.

Xia Qi suddenly missed the lamb skewers on the Blue Star, not to mention the chili powder cumin, it would be okay to give yourself some salt.

At the beginning, Xia Qi had obtained a map of the salt mine, but after Xia Qi identified the direction, he found that the salt mine was located in the northeast of the Xia tribe and had a distance of hundreds of kilometers.

With such a long distance and such a cold and snowy place, it is impossible to say how many people will be killed or injured along the way, and besides, even if the salt mine is found, how can it be transported back to the camp?

"Salt, salt......"

Xia Qi muttered, but finally ate dinner.
