Primitives are stunned

Chapter 267 Bloody Ears of Wheat

Accidentally subduing the giant was really the luckiest thing Wang Hao did after he came to the Great Wilderness.

Things that cannot be solved by too much manpower, or that are very troublesome to solve, have become very simple things in front of giants.

It's not that the people in the wilderness are not strong enough, on the contrary, the strength of the people in the wilderness is amazing.Even the weakest female savage can walk like flying with a wheelbarrow loaded with two or three hundred catties of stones.

What restricts the people of the Great Wilderness is nothing more than their body shape.

Often eating the meat of second- and third-level creatures has made many people in Wangcun's physical fitness evolve to an inhuman existence.

However, even if their strength reaches the level of a giant, can they pick up the shovel that belongs to the giant and replace the giant's position to dig the foundation?The answer is no.

Therefore, the giant is the only one, and at the same time, it cannot be replaced by Wangcun.At least until the system evolves to level three, giants are irreplaceable.

Of course, in addition to the giants, the tribesmen also contributed a lot to the construction of the foundation.

Stone transportation, foundation filling, these things are all done by them.

With the unanimous efforts of everyone, in just two days, the village has excavated and filled more than 100 meters of foundation road sections.

"In the past two days, besides the completion of the school, is there anything else going on?" Wang Hao asked Gu Mu as he stood aside and watched the clansmen unload the boat full of asphalt to the river.

"The various experimental fields in Yan Village have been sown, and then only a small number of people are needed for daily maintenance and supervision. The manpower has been vacated. If we continue to cultivate new land, the seeds will not be enough, and we have to replant the land. Collect. Wang Ba asked me to ask you how to deal with it." Gu Mu took a piece of congealed asphalt, broke it and said.

He had seen this kind of thing before. It was broken off from the Wild Boar King last time. After Wang Hao heated it with a clay pot, it turned into something like mud.

When it was slightly solidified, Wang Hao rolled it thin with the peeled and greased tree trunk, and then draped it over the thatched hut, so he didn't have to be afraid of rain, and the water resistance was better than thatched poncho.

However, Wang Hao said that the asphalt transported back this time, in addition to being used to cover the roof as a raincoat, is mainly used for road construction.

There are no roads in the world, and when there are many people walking, it becomes a road.Putting this sentence on the Great Wilderness is nonsense.

You clean up the turf today, tamp it down, and step on it to form a road. By tomorrow, the seeds buried in the soil will germinate, and the soil will be broken the day after tomorrow, and the yellow land will turn into turf again the day after tomorrow.

If there is no management every one or two weeks, the weeds on the road will even grow taller than one person.

Even if you pull out the grass and burn all the seeds in the soil with a fire, you can only manage it for a week.

It's not that Wang Village has never built roads before, but when the road built outwards was repeatedly destroyed by these annoying plants, Wang Hao finally wisely gave up his plan to build roads.

When there is no road, no matter what you are transporting, you can only use a wheelbarrow that can go over mountains and mountains.If the roads are repaired, then two-wheeled, three-wheeled, or even four-wheeled carts can be built.

The people of the Great Wilderness are very strong. Wang Hao once tried it in the village. A four-wheeled cart filled with stones weighing about five tons can be pulled by a strong clansman on the flat ground in the center of the village. The whole morning.

And if it is shoulder-to-hand or a wheelbarrow, at least ten people are needed to transport this amount of goods.

In other words, if there were roads, a person from the Great Wilderness would be able to carry at least five tons of things for eighty miles a day, which would increase the transport volume by more than ten times compared to when there were no roads.And in terms of speed, it has increased by at least [-]%. .

In the short term, the benefit of building roads is a one-time investment that permanently reduces transportation costs.

From a long-term perspective, with Huacheng as the center, the direct influence of Wang Village has been expanded to the land within a radius of 240 miles.

Because in the case of roads, the 240-mile road, the giant clawed dragon can run back and forth in one morning.

And empty people, one day can run to the destination.

If you need to send troops, you can march normally and reach your destination in three days.

This distance even includes Zhao Village of Heishui Lake and the ruins of the ancient city where the exchange day was located.

As long as there is a road and Wang Hao conquers the surrounding villages, then the most troubling population problem in the Great Wilderness can be easily solved.

At that time, Wang Hao was able to integrate the forces of all the villages within a radius of more than 200 miles from Huacheng City, and work together to build a giant city that can resist monsters attacking the city.

Thinking of the benefits of the successful construction of the road, Wang Hao couldn't help laughing. Facing Gu Mu's question, he said, "Wang Ba, tell him not to cultivate new land for the time being, and he should be busy in two days. It's a pity that his manpower is really short, if only a few more wars can be fought and some people can be captured!"

Wars don't come just by talking about them. Nearby places are all small tribes, and the surnames in each village are not the same.

Even if it is a village whose population has almost reached the upper limit, facing the current Wangcun, it is as weak as a child, and does not dare to wave its fist at all.

And farther away, such as Wangcun and Licun in Jiulong Mountain, which have feuds with Wangcun.Although they have a profound background and have the strength to start a war with Wangcun, but the last defeat has already hurt them.

No matter how much they hated Wangcun, it was impossible to go to war for the time being, because once the war started now, there would be one less summer to store food.Regardless of winning or losing, at least half of them will not be able to survive this winter.

During this time, the two villages sent envoys over more than once to redeem the defeated captives.

However, how could Wang Hao agree to their request? Now is the time when there is a shortage of people. If the food problem is not considered, no matter how many people are given to Wang Hao, he feels that it is not enough. How can the population of the mouth be said? Just pay it back.

Besides, there will be a battle between Wangcun and Jiulong Mountain sooner or later. If these people are sent back, it is difficult to wait for them to recover before attacking themselves.

So, although these envoys came several times, except for the first batch, the rest didn't even see Wang Hao's face.

The shortage of manpower can be solved slowly. In the wilderness where the living environment is harsh, the benefits of rights are not obvious.For the vast majority of villages, the position of the chief is a kind of responsibility.

Therefore, apart from the surname and hatred, not many people actually care about who is the leader.

And the surname, in the face of tangible interests, can also be temporarily put aside.

As long as Wangcun can provide food, people can live a good life.If you don't go hungry, don't suffer from cold, and don't have to fight against ferocious beasts, then there will be countless villages willing to go to Wang Village and become Wang Hao's vassal villages.

And during this time, those tribes who applied to become vassal villages of Wangcun for a little welfare are some proof.

Wang Hao believes that after the first batch of sweet potato planting results come out, the number of tribes who choose to join Wangcun will definitely increase like a blowout because of these planting techniques.

It will take some time for the sweet potatoes that have just been planted to mature.

Although Wang Hao told everyone that when these sweet potatoes grow up, they can be turned into food, just like the fruit of a sweet fruit tree, which can be eaten by people.But not many people in the village have actually eaten sweet potatoes.

It is precisely because of this that the people of the tribe do not have much expectation for sweet potatoes.In their view, if the population that the village needs to bear does not increase, the fish in the fish pond will be enough to eat until next summer flood.

And when the summer floods come next year, the people who are prepared will definitely catch more fish.

Although the clansmen didn't expect the sweet potatoes to ripen, there was something that Wang Hao was looking forward to. After waiting for so long, finally came the news.

After the asphalt was unloaded, a clansman found Wang Hao.And gave Wang Hao a wheat ear.

The shriveled ears of wheat, after being transplanted and cared for carefully, have a second spring and become plump.

Wang Hao peeled off a grain of wheat and stuffed it into his mouth, the long-lost aroma of wheat immediately filled his mouth.

Looking at Wang Hao's intoxicated appearance, the fur ball thought there was something delicious, and he grabbed the ears of wheat and wanted to put them in his mouth.

However, when Fuqiu picked up the ears of wheat, he found that the back of the ears of wheat was stained with bright red blood, and Fuqiu was so frightened that he was afraid of blood that he threw it down again.
