Chapter 016-My Emperor's wise that is prepared for danger in times of safety

Xiao Yun knew very well that he couldn't make a fortune in business on the prairie. The reason was simple. First, the deserted prairie was very sparsely populated, and second, the tribes on the deserted prairie were not rich... The richest tiger tribe in this section, that is, the king's tent of the grassland, is the size of the king's tent that Xiao Yun learned from the patriarch..., it is about the level of the big township in ancient feudal China. Hmm, no, perhaps the personal property and life of the tiger king that it's not as good as those ancient rich men who lived in towns and villages...  

Unless they can dump goods which made by their tribe at a low prices to the human kingdom and the orc empire in the east in the future, it would be impossible to start a business by doing business to make money. Xiao Yun figured this out. He didn't bother in this aspect, and only considered how he could improve the living standards of his small tribe right now. The first thing he had been thinking about for a long time was the health problem.

To wash their hands before eating, after going to the bathroom to rub the mud off their body (Xiao Yun mandates a minimum bath time, otherwise these goods will run out after getting wet in a few seconds) to go to the heatable bed. These two points people in the tribe slowly accepted, but ... they just took this as Xiao Yun's personal stubbornness to comply with. They have no concept of hygiene.

The most obvious manifestation is that every time, after they eating a big pot of rice, from the vines to everyone's hands and even their buttocks,there must be oil stains on there, and there must be mud residues, grass leaf fragments and white hairs of varying lengths in the pottery pots for vegetables and soup...

Every elementary school student on the earth knows the common sense of hygiene from the mouth. But if he wants to teach this common sense to the snow werewolf, Xiao Yun is really useless to worry about it. After thinking about it, he decided to start from other aspects and influence it in a roundabout way to the meal habit of the snow werewolves, this method is: let all the snow werewolves carry a bowl of meat.

The snow werewolves cherish materials. When they found that their greasy hands could not hold the bowl and would break the bowl, Xiao Yun will ask them to learn to use chopsticks or other tools instead of touching food with their claws. The good mud brick house couldn't wait to propose burning pottery, and forcefully piled more than 20 pottery bowls in the cave where the pottery was first burned, instead of burning more water jugs or pottery pots, which the tribe pays more attention to.  

But he never expected that this plan would encounter a subversive crisis when it reached the last step...

"This bowl is made for use. How can it not be used? The bowl can be filled with wild vegetables and soup or allocated meat. Next time I will cook some flat plates, so you don't need to put the allocated food on the rattan. On the straw mat, this can make it more convenient for everyone to eat. Don't we make pottery bowls for the people of the tribe? Then we worked hard to build mud bricks to build the kiln, collect firewood, grass and cow dung, and burn these things. What is it for?"   

Xiao Yun became more and more angry, showing his claws and slapped the ground vigorously, and the dust slapped by him a lot.

The patriarch sat cross-legged across from him, and the more than twenty bowls burned out were all put away for him to put away and put away. At this moment, he looked at Xiao Yun with a particularly disapproving expression, and said earnestly: "Don't worry, Ayun, I can feel your care for the people of the tribe, but we don't have to use the bowl to eat. Why use such a beautiful bowl at the risk of destroying them?" He said and deliberately glared at Oxhorn and signaled Xiao Yun to understand that most of the clansmen look like Oxhorn who are careless person.

"Otherwise, it would be fine. Let Qingcao and Dahe pinch some of the black bowls you made before, and let the people who are willing to use it who can use it, as for these bright bowls, they can be used next year to exchange for the salt that the tribe needs more, and maybe some cloth..."

"You didn't understand what I meant, patriarch. I also know that good pottery can be exchanged goods for what the tribe needs, but this batch of bowls is actually not a particularly successful burning product. We can also burn better in the next batch- "Looking at what the patriarch disagrees with, Xiao Yun can only take a step back and take a deep breath, "Well, if the next batch produces better bowls, then we will use these bowls for the tribe to use, okay? From taking the mud and making the mud tires to leaving the kiln, it only takes about eight days to cook a batch of bowls. Even if they are to be traded, no one needs to buy so much, right?"   

The patriarch finally nodded his head this time... He seems not to think that Xiao Yun can really do it-the number of shiny tableware he has seen in Tiger king's Tent is also very rare. No matter what Xiao Yun says, he thinks that the bright bowl out of the kiln this time is hitting a big luck...  

So at the dinner of the day, Xiao Yun, who thought he would be less guilty of his eyes during the meal, once again ushered in the daily routine test of disgusting appetite—all kinds of mud grass and leaves were brought in by a pair of big hands covered in oil Cook the bean sprouts in the soup pot, and then a group of snow werewolves holding a soup pot with countless ingredients to drink one by one... snow werewolves all know that drinking hot soup can warm their stomachs when the weather is cold, but don't expect them to think of using wood without a bowl spoon.

After holding a sigh of relief, Xiao Yun immediately found Qingcao and Dahe after the meal in the cauldron, and proposed his next firing plan.

"You're looking for a special stone? How special, what does it look like?" Dahe blinked her eyes and asked curiously. This adult female snow werewolf has a very handsome face, with sharp noses, deep eyes, and thick eyebrows, her skin is roughened by the wind and sun, and there are some obvious beast claw marks on her browbone... When she is not talking, she is a completely quiet cool guy-shaped beautiful man, but she just speaks, her cool and mysterious temperament will be concealed a stupid temperament at all...(Dahe who is the one of the most handsome person in this world.)

Xiao Yun took the branches to draw a rough shape of a cluster of quartz stone on the ground: "Stones like this are grayish white or whiter, or they may be yellow, or they are clusters of crystals or blocks with special patterns. It has a smooth surface and is harder than ordinary rocks. Um... it seems to be used as a substitute for weapons. Have you seen it?"

Dahe, whose stupid and cute temperament was exposed as soon as she spoke, was considered a smart person among snow werewolves. She stared at the clustered quartz stone drawn by Xiao Yun for a few seconds, then said: "If you are talking about that kind of white, and has many very hard small stones next to each other. Hongye has some."   

"Ah?" Xiao Yun couldn't believe it. Dahe nodded vigorously: "The stone knives she used to sharpen bone arrows are this kind of stone." The name Hongye, Xiao Yun has no impression at all. When it comes to sharpening bone arrows, he immediately remembered--the tribe's five warrior establishment does have a guy who is sharpening her bones as soon as she sits down...  

It's really dark under the lights. Xiao Yun wiped his sweat, and he couldn't get rid of the pain, and he was blind, so he stood up and went to the soldier Hongye. Dahe grabbed him, raised his hand and pointed at the heatable bed on the other side of the house: "Where are you going, where are the red leaves."   

"Ah?" On the heatable bed, one of the few clansmen who just lay down held her arm and raised her head and said, "Who called me?"   

Xiao Yun: "..." Can he say that, except for a few familiar to him, he still hasn't remembered anyone else in the tribe...(Xiao Yun is really confusing the snow werewolves' shape of gender,because all the females and males they look the same shape... )

Warrior Hongye, one of the adult female snow werewolves in the tribe. She and the original owner Ayun's mother are the same model. Although they are female, they also have governor-like chest muscles and a height is as same as Yao Ming. They are two heads more height than Xiao Yun's height.... (the governor here is Arnold Schwarzenegger.)

When Xiao Yun faced her face to face, he could only see the tough muscles... With such a threatening physique, it is no wonder that Xiao Yun couldn't even remember her face. Anyway, Xiao Yun is a man of dignity. It is difficult to establish a sincere friendship with such a strong person.

"I do have stone knives, but they are all I want to use. I can't use them for you to play with." After understanding Xiao Yun's meaning, Warrior Hongye stretched out his generous slap and patted his little shoulder kindly, "Let's do it. , I will give you the stone, you can use it to grind and play."   

Xiao Yun opened his self dead eyes: "..." Okay, compared to the foolish brother Oxhorn, Hongye still has a little bit of maternal characteristics of...

"I don't want to play. I need to use quartz stone to make pottery. This kind of special stone can be used to glaze pottery and make pottery clay. It can burn better pottery." Xiao Yun explained, "The amount required will be very large, so we need to get some more and burn it again. Where did you find this kind of stone?"

   "Aren't you using clay to burn pottery? Stones can be burned too?" Hongye wondered.

"If we can find other special stones, there are many things that can be burned~" Xiao Yun sighed. If he can burn ceramics, he can burn glass, but glass requires more materials, but he has nowhere to find now... Limestone and feldspar are still relatively common minerals, soda ash and boric acid cannot be found here.

Although the miserly patriarch refused to let the tribesmen use the bright bowls, it made the tribesmen visited the bowls burned by the tribe itself. It attracted a lot of admiration. Even the ordinary pottery bowls on the grassland are valuable, smoother and brighter. The bowl is naturally more valuable. Hongye has also seen that kind of beautiful bright bowl, and has more cooperation with Xiao Yun than before, and immediately tells where she found the quartz stone, and promised to take Xiao Yun with him the next day.

"Hongye the place where you did go is very far." Xiao Yun was shocked when he heard that Hongye's patrol area had to be run for more than four hours. The snow werewolves are strong and good stamina, and when they are running at least more than five times fast as much as a human, it means that Hongye ran a hundred kilometers away, right? !

"It's the furthest patrol area. Just go there every five or six days one time. There are passages leading to the underground world." As soon as she sat down and talked, Hongye took out the bone pieces from her pocket to sharpen the arrow. "There are also burrows dug by goblins nearby. We drove those guys away when we moved over."   

"..." Xiao Yun was dumbfounded. The creatures on the prairie are also very diverse. It also has such a tiny race of goblins he knows, but "under... underground world?"   

Hongye was taken aback, and looked at Qingcao and Dahe: "Has no one said this to Ayun?"   

"Ayun didn't like to chat with people before." Dahe said the truth honestly.  

Xiao Yun: "..."

Wait, how lack of common sense in the world is that the autistic child of the original owner, that's why they all have expression of Ayun who is such a stupid and innocent!

"In short... the underground world." Hongye seemed to have a headache. "A world similar to the world on the ground, the territory of the dark elves... and the dark elves' vassal gray dwarves, black dwarves, goblins... those underground creatures when they are starving crazy, at the time, they would run out from various exits to rob the residents on the ground, but this has nothing to do with our Snow Werewolves, they are not our Snow Werewolves' opponents."

Xiao Yun looked dazed...Well, their small tribe chose this neighborhood, the reason why the water source and the lush grassland have been idle for years is that there is a threat from the underground world...  

Hongye thought that Xiao Yun was scared, and comforted him: "Don't be afraid, we snow werewolves are naturally not afraid of magic and piercing. The nemesis of the dark elves."   

"Wait, let me get it by myself." Xiao Yun pinched his eyebrows, and figured out the world pattern which he had gotten from Sal before. This world is not a peaceful age. The human kingdom and the orc empire are don't have national wars because of the grassland and the sea, but small conflicts and contradictions are unavoidable.

The human kingdom is also many civil wars within itself... With the productivity of this world, it would be good for human beings not to be conquered by nature. Not to mention the transformation of nature, then the livable space is certainly not much larger. Just like China on the earth is large, before it entering a modern society, since human beings were capable of transforming nature, which was just feeding the upper limit of 100 million people. So, why didn't the human kingdom and the orc empire consider coming to conquer the grassland?

Don't talk about the sturdy nations of the grassland that can fight, how can the snow werewolves fight against, the total population is less than 10,000; the tiger clan who are stronger and more fight against, if to take out three thousand warriors, that is the power of the whole tiger clan; and the cat clan is said to be the internal individual fighting power is weak; the tauren clan, the first one is peace-loving (after all, it is a herbivore), and the other is that the total population is not much larger... Then the problem is that all the population of the grassland races add up is not over 100,000, and only this few people occupy the entire prairie, can they really scare the human kingdom and the orc empire to abandon the war?  

"Emm...Hongye, the biggest security threat on our grassland is the underground world?" With limited information, Xiao Yun couldn't make a judgment at all.

"Of course not." Hongye said naturally, "The passage of the underground world on the grassland is only a near the faraway places, and they are far away from the hometown of the dark elves. Those monsters wandering around are more troublesome."   

"Why didn't the orc empire in the east come here? Have they attacked the grassland? Didn't they even want to fight over the human kingdom across the inner sea?" Xiao Yun asked.

"This...I haven't thought about this issue, I don't know." Hongye scratched her head, "If they want to fight over, we will fight against. The Tiger king's Tent will summon the warriors of all tribes on the grassland to fight back. Ayun, why do you take care of it? I have never heard of anyone attacking the grassland for so many years."

"Ayun, you are so weird." Dahe said authentically.

"Ayun, what's wrong with you, suddenly thinking of such a strange question?" Qingcao also tilted her head.

Xiao Yun: "..." Okay, it's really early to get to grandma's home with the Snow Werewolf now...  

But this matter is still rooted in Xiao Yun's heart, if it is said that the human kingdom and the orc empire mutually If you are afraid and inconvenient to fight against the difficult grassland races so as not to be "persuaded" by the other party, then Xiao Yun is understandable, distant and close attacks are only applicable to multi-national melee. If the trilateral powers are bordered by regions, it is not good to start a war lightly. Any prior agreement is just a piece of waste paper in the face of the interests of nations.

However, if you insert an underground world with offensive channels to come in, the problem is more complicated... The prairie tribes are too poor and are not immune to death. The history of war on the earth proves that the poorer and backward areas, the easier it is to be looted. Eaters are eyeing that the fact that the grassland tribe occupies such a large livable plain is itself an original sin—that is to say, there must be a deeper reason for the orc empire, the human kingdom, and the underground world not to conquer the grassland, and this The reason... maybe it's an active volcano that can't even be mentioned.

"I feel more pressure...I can't be so relaxed. I have to increase the resistance to risks of my tribe as soon as possible. In any case, I can't easily to died." Silently squeezed his sweat, Xiao Yun made up his mind to improve himself as soon as possible. The right to speak in the tribe, so that he can carry out the great cause of farming and gathering among the tribe. At least, even if the burning bowl is not used, he has to compete with the patriarch. This time-wasting ass has to be quickly given Get rid of.

To be honest, it was not the first time that Xiao Yun thought about this issue, but he always had a leisurely mentality of slowing down time, and it was not very urgent... Now he decided to speed up his pace, and of course he would not engage in internal fighting. After all, there is no class oppression within the clan, and the patriarch is sweating every day like the clansmen. Naturally, there is no need to engage in a small internal revolution; besides, the patriarch is not unable to accept Xiao Yun's series of actions, it is him. Only willing to give support where you see good and good points, this is a contradiction of ideas among the people, and it is not irreconcilable.

"It is impossible to seize power, but it can make the patriarch be influenced by me more quickly, and let him improve his subjective initiative to cooperate with me in farming and gathering. Otherwise, now I just let the tribe's hygiene and health habits drag on for ten and a half days. It's hard to tell..."   

Lying side by side on the warm heatable bed like the clansmen, Xiao Yun opened his eyes, and pondering the plans for his patriarch transformation, and reflecting on his various operations during this period.

"It seems to be a little misguided now. It doesn't make sense to pull Ashan to accompany me to burn the kiln for a while. Ashan doesn't like to do this kind of boring thing at all. He is going crazy for a day and night. It is better to take the patriarch. Call to join me in the whole process of burning the kiln. With this participation in the process, he should be more confident about using the bowl."

"In this case... the matter of burning ceramics can't be silently climbing the progress as I thought before, and wait for the results to come out before looking for the patriarch to show off the better pottery... Hey, why would I have such a naive mentality?"   

"Uh ...by the way, I seem to have a bit of a pretending mentality about deliberately letting the patriarch go to make bricks... Well, I still curse Oxhorn is a foolish, I'm same foolish as well..."   

In the dark, Xiao Yun's face became red, and slap on his face.  

"My day is to reflect on myself, self-criticism, self-criticism, and self-criticism!"
