Each of Bai Wu and the others tried out the newly made knives.

Except for Bai Wu who was a little weaker and not very good at cutting trees, everyone chopped down the nearby trees like melons and vegetables.

Touching the knife, he couldn't put it down. "This knife is really useful. If I had this knife when I was building a nest, I wouldn't have to chop trees for two years."

"You kid, what do you mean if you have been chopping for two years? We have relied on stone knives for half our lives. It is hard to chop trees and bones, and we have to go to pick up stones to sharpen new knives every now and then." Shanying looked at the knife with eyes wide open. He was very relieved, "Not to mention anything else, you guys really caught up with the good times."

Seeing them excited, Bai Wu said, "This is just the first knife. We will go to pick up ore from tomorrow. In the future, we will make many, many knives and other tools."

Qing from the Eagle Clan immediately said, "After the new knife is made, can you give me one?"

"Don't say I'll give you one, even if I give you two or three, as long as we have enough ore." Bai Wu said, "Clan Chief Shan Ying, everyone is more free in winter, or else organize people to go to the mountain to find ore tomorrow ?”

Shanying immediately said: "It's okay to find ore, but the ore found must be distributed centrally, we eight and you two."

Ya seized the opportunity, "Okay, the [-]% is not for nothing from you, we Bai people can exchange the charcoal we need to smelt ore with you."

In the blink of an eye, the two patriarchs reached a consensus.

Before Bai Wu was thinking about how to persuade the people of the Eagle Clan to exchange ore, he didn't expect it to be so easy.

He said happily: "It would be great if everyone is willing to cooperate. I don't know how much ore I can find, so I will use this small furnace to smelt it for the time being. After I am sure that I can find a lot, the two clans will find places to forge the tools they need. How about it?"

Ya said: "I agree with this approach."

Shan Ying: "I also agree, for the time being, I will follow what Ya said."

Bai Wu said: "Then I would like to ask the priest to be a witness. It is not easy to find metal ore this time. I hope it will benefit the development of our two clans and not become a dispute between the two clans."

The ore was almost discovered by Bai Wu and he gave the method of using it. If the ore caused a war between the two sides, he would have to feel guilty in his next life.

The two tribes reached a consensus for the time being, and everyone dispersed separately, saying that they would gather again tomorrow to find the mine together.

As for the knife, the two clans unanimously decided to keep it for Nanyao.

Nan Yao is a priest and the main force for making knives. Only by giving him can everyone be convinced.

When taking a bath at night, Bai Wu looked a little worried.

Seeing that he was absent-minded, Nan Yao almost slipped and fell several times, "Unhappy? Isn't it much more convenient to make a knife?"

"I'm a little concerned that the knives will start a fight."

"Why would you think of going there?"

"Didn't you see how handsome you are when chopping wood? With just one blow, a tree as thick as a bowl is felled in an instant. Splitting wood is so easy, and hunting and gathering will definitely be much easier in the future. Won't there be friction because of the prey?"

Bai Wu felt that her worry was not unreasonable.

After hunting the prey in their own territory, they can only expand to other territories, and it will be difficult not to fight.

Nan Yao looked at him, but didn't answer, but asked, "Do you know how many children of the Bai people have successfully broken their shells in the past ten years?"

"Ah?" Bai Wu was dumbfounded, "Why do you ask this?"

"Three in 170. Nine in Eagle Clan in 230. The other clans are about the same, all between one hundred and seventeen to two hundred."

"ten years?"

"Yes, ten years."

"Are there so few?" Bai Wu gasped, "Only a dozen children a year?"

As he spoke, he secretly counted the children in the tribe who were born this year in his heart, and he only counted to sixteen.

He knew that their tribe was not big, but so few newborns still shocked him.

"This is too outrageous." Bai Wu murmured, "I understand what you mean."

With so few newborns, how could they fight?

If there is a real fight, if there are more fights, every tribe will be wiped out.

Bai Wu's attention was all turned to the newborn, "Have there always been so few children of bird orc people? What about other races?"

"The Lion Clan has fewer newborns than us. The children you see are all the children they have born in the past ten years."

That time, because Bai Wu gave candy to the little lion, almost all the little lions came to his lap.

He didn't count carefully at the time, but now that he thinks about it, there are definitely no more than seventy of these children.

"I really didn't think that everyone doesn't like having children?"

"It's just that it can't be born." Nan Yao said lightly, "Beast God bless you."

Bai Wu looked at him in disbelief, what kind of animal god's blessing is this?

The beast god blesses the death of children and grandchildren? !

He was about to refute, when the words came to his lips, after thinking about it carefully, he realized that it was really the blessing of the beast god.

All orcs are top predators, invincible in their domains.

If the orcs were really like beasts in the animal world, giving birth twice a year and having multiple babies once a year, then the resources on this land would have been exhausted by them long ago.

"Okay." Bai Wu clasped his hands together and looked at the sky, "I hope the beast god will bless the beast people to maintain this state forever, and there will never be a war."

"With us here, no."

"I don't worry about it. I wanted to say before, if we find a lot of ore, then let's make a metal hammer? It is too troublesome to use stones. Every time I forge, I am afraid that the stone will be crooked and hit myself directly. hand, or touches the red-hot ore, causing burns.”

Forging with stone is indeed too troublesome, Nan Yao agrees with his idea.

Bai Wu's mood improved, and she dreamed about metal utensils with Nan Yao.

You must have a knife. If you have a knife, you can go out to collect it when you go in, and you can go home to chop vegetables when you go back.

His family always used stone knives, and if he hit any prey, he couldn't cut off the animal skin even if he wanted to.

He also needs a hoe. Next year he wants to grow a little more plants. It is too inconvenient without a hoe.

The current stone hoes and bone hoes are easy to break, and they can't dig when they touch the roots and hard soil underneath. The efficiency is extremely low. It is different with metal hoes.

They will grow rice and wheat next year, so a hoe is essential.

As for the rest, that can only be said later.

Bai Wu feels that with the current reserves of minerals, it is already very impressive for him to be able to get these two utensils.

Finding ore is a major event, and both the Bai and Ying people responded positively.

Early the next morning, the two tribes each summoned fifty warriors and set out for Fantuling in a mighty manner.

There were enough of them now that they no longer had to search along the river.

As long as each team walks along the foot of the mountain from one direction to the top of the mountain, it is enough to plow the whole mountain.

The saying that more people are more powerful is true most of the time. At night, the two tribes went down the mountain with 21 large baskets of ore.

According to the division method, there are four baskets for the Bai tribe, sixteen baskets for the Ying tribe, and the remaining basket for Baiwu and Nanyao.

With so many ores, Baiwu no longer needs to be timid.

He took the warriors of the two tribes, and used these ores to forge metal hammers first.

With a metal hammer, it is much easier to forge other ores.

The first step for everyone to get a metal hammer is to make a metal knife.

Bai Wu also got a handful.

He also asked everyone to help him use his ore to make a hoe and a sickle. Both wheat and rice needed to be cut, and using a sickle would be faster than a knife.

For the remaining ore, he made four knives, and everyone in the family has one, which will be much more convenient when going hunting and gathering in the future.

When he found metal before, he wanted to make a metal pot.

When he actually found the metal, he gave up the idea. First, because the ore was relatively small, and second, he didn't know what the ore was, nor whether the metal was non-toxic or harmless.

If this metal is poisonous like lead, then turning it into a pot is purely courting death.

As a person who advocates science, he is not big enough to dare to put unknown substances into his mouth, and finally cause chronic poisoning.

When forging this batch of utensils, Bai Wu and the others only went to help in the early stage, and he stopped going there after the people from the latter two clans got started one after another.

He has already taught everything he can teach, and the rest is pure hard work. Bai Wu has been working so hard for so long that his whole body is about to collapse from exhaustion.

He couldn't hold on to the rest of the heavy work, so he had to take a good rest.

"I always feel that the weather this year is not particularly cold." Bai Wuwo stayed at home Maodong, "I wanted to get a heated kang before, but now it seems that it is not very necessary."

Their house uses resin as the adhesive. If they want to build a kang, they have to find a way to modify it. The kang cannot be attached to the wall, and the flue must be thickened to insulate it from the heat.

Now the weather is too warm, and the animal skin bedding is enough, so there is no need to do it.

Kishi said: "This year is really a rare good weather. It is not only warm, but also relatively humid. If it is the same as in previous years, when the cold wind blows, everyone's face will be full of blood, and one face will be red and black."

"Brother, are you talking about cracks?"

Kishi looked at him enviously, "Yeah, your face is so white and beautiful, if your face is full of blood, it would be bad."

Bai Wu said lazily, "Don't we have autumn fruit oil?"

"What's the use? When the cold wind is strong, people can be blown away, and the oil can be kept for a while, and it will dry after a while. What should be cracked still needs to be cracked, especially those children who like to go out to play and Teenagers who are going to learn."

Bai Wu was taken aback, why didn't he know that there were learning programs in the tribe, "What are you studying?"

"Flying skills! Oh yes, I forgot, you haven't practiced this before."
