High Elf Plantation
Chapter 0083 Meat shortage
Time has entered June, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the town river protection work of the Pine Lake Group has finally been completed. .zhetian. Twelve small lakes are connected into a large circle by the town river. The five-meter open river surface can block the intrusion of most monsters and wild beasts.
"This town protection river can not only protect the safety of the cedar tree hill, but its biggest role is to facilitate irrigation. From the halfway position of the cedar tree hill to the large circle of the town river, the land can be reclaimed as farmland. Captain Deana, next you have to arrange for the grunts to continue digging trenches and build an irrigation network extending in all directions."
When Winfried inspected the completed moat, he could see that there were several more Hoopers among the Grunts, all of which were evolved from Scrooge, the facehugger.
"Don't worry, sir. I will arrange the irrigation network project and start construction in the agricultural reclamation area around Hongque Village first, so as to plant a summer crop as soon as possible."
Winfried didn't know the latitude of the Afterglow Forest, but the climate here was roughly between subtropical and tropical, and crops could be harvested three times a year. Under normal circumstances, one season of spring crops begins in spring, one season of summer crops in summer, one season of autumn crops in early autumn, and one season of fallow in late autumn and winter.
Bang, bang, bang, a group of bugbears in the distance were wielding axes to cut down cedar trees. The huge cedar trees could not withstand the dense felling, and finally fell down with a roar.
Immediately, a goblin walked over and cut the cedar tree into sections with a saw.
In addition, there was a Goblin holding a leather whip, instructing the Goblin boy to dig out the roots of the fir tree, and these roots were also given to the Goblin to saw into sections.
"What a pity." Winfried sighed as he watched the old fir trees being sawed off one by one.
But it was a sigh of relief that he would not stop the cutting down of cedar trees. If he wanted to farm, he would have to destroy the woods. Not only these tall cedar trees, but also after the pine trees are planted around the moat, the pine trees near the cedar hill will also be cut down one by one, leaving only the large elf trees and landscape trees.
Only when there are no big trees blocking the sun can you grow vigorous crops.
Deana was not sentimental about this, "The cedar trees are of little use. It's good to cut them down and use them as firewood. As long as the town becomes a sea of fairy trees, it will be fine."
The place where elves live is full of forests and grasslands, so the concept of environmental protection has never been formed. If you want to farm, you must destroy the forest, and the trees here have strong reproductive capacity. If the cultivated land is not protected for a few months, a large number of saplings will sprout up.
"Sooner or later, the town will become a sea of fairy trees. Inside the town wall is a sea of trees, outside is a sea of flowers and green, and the cedar lakes are plantations."
In the sea of trees, the baby elves are running around along the branches, the vine fairies go to the sea of flowers to drink nectar together, the kodo beasts, horses, cattle and sheep are leisurely grazing in the green sea, and the plantations are full of crops, chickens, ducks and geese. This is probably the favorite habitat environment of elves, and it is also the development direction of every elf town.
"Actually, I like the pattern of stars and moon planned by adults best. The great elves live in the great elves' villages, the goblins live in the goblin villages, and there are only adults and half-elves in the sea of trees in the small town." Dienna He makes no secret of his discrimination against other races, from great elves to goblins.
"Such a layout can give full play to the effect of each person's duties. However, the construction of the rock road must be repaired as soon as possible. We do not expect it to be accessible in all directions immediately, but the north-south and east-west roads running through the Pine Lake Group and Cedar Hill will be better the faster they are. good."
If you want to be rich, build roads first.
It is his deep-rooted knowledge.
There was a ripple in the air around him, and the mysterious elf Faith Hill appeared out of thin air and said, "Sir, the Kodo beast is about to mature."
"I'll rush over here."
In the planting area, the Kodo tubers, which look like big pineapples, are full of cracks. Not long after Winfried arrived, these roots cracked one by one.
Then kodos the size of fat pigs smashed through the kodo roots one after another. They were obviously not adults yet, and were much smaller and thinner than adult kodos. It will take at least half a year of breeding before the little kodo has the strength to pull a carriage and start running business through the forest.
"If it weren't for these guys' huge appetites and there were fifteen Kodo roots left, I would have chosen to plant them together, half running a business and half farming." Winfried shook his head.
Dienna responded, "A kodo needs at least three hundred kilograms of grass and fifty kilograms of concentrate every day. Fortunately, they are herbivores. If they eat meat, they really can't afford it." They can still be left in the forest to eat grass. , let the kodo beast find food by itself, but there is no way to eat meat.
Faith Hill said, "Kodos don't eat meat, but centaurs do. Yesterday I heard Captain Wright complaining that after a hard day of hunting, there was not enough food for thirty centaurs."
When it came to this, Winfried felt a little embarrassed. He was so trusting that he actually planted thirty centaurs at one time.
He remained expressionless and said calmly, "After the centaur has survived this period of time, mastered archery and melee combat, and its strength has stabilized into an excellent level, it can join the hunting team and hunt together. It will take a while for the time being." He underestimated half of it. The appetite of the people and horses is really crazy.
Moreover, centaurs only eat meat and are not vegetarian. They need to eat more than ten kilograms of meat in one meal, and three meals a day are indispensable.
Thirty centaurs would eat nine hundred kilograms of meat a day, and at least one hundred kilograms of monster meat would be required to satisfy their growth and development.
Coupled with the half-elves' demand for meat, the hunting team must hunt at least kilograms of meat every day to satisfy it.
If you're lucky, you can hunt a few large wild boars, which will satisfy your food rations for several days. But if you're unlucky, and you only hunt a few rabbit spores, it won't even be enough to fill the gap between your teeth.
What's more, the four scholars and their followers also need food from the town.
Owl beasts and hippogryphs also need to eat meat, and bugbears with rough skin and thick flesh also need at least one meal of meat every day.
But everything was planted, and there was no point in regretting it any more. Winfried could only hunt fast while reducing the rations of the goblins and grts.
The goblins changed to vegetarian diet, while the grunts continued to eat dirt.
"Centaurs can participate in hunting. I'm afraid it will take half a year. During this period, we have to buy food from outside as soon as possible." Dienna said.
"When the centaur guards arrive, you will summarize a demand list and give it to Unimomo so that the Chimera caravan can set off. In addition, I have received the magic ball communication. The Red Arrow family has two more caravans. When they set out, most of the supplies they brought were food.”
Deana nodded, "That's good."
Faith Hill blinked her big light red eyes and asked, "Are the two half-elf families also coming together?"
When Winfried heard this, he became slightly more energetic. "Three families, the Wind Elf and the Wood Elf families, will follow the caravan. Also, counting the time, the Mystic Elf family should arrive in a few days."
