Yang Cheng pretended not to see the frustrated expressions on Mai and the others' faces.
He changed the subject and asked: "By the way, Mai, you haven't encountered any high-level ferocious beasts on the road, right?"
Yang Cheng still remembered the previous battle between the rock turtle and the second-grade ferocious beast that looked like a mantis.
These two second-grade ferocious beasts are not the third-grade ferocious beasts that were transformed from the shamans of the Black Snake Tribe.
The giant black snake transformed by the shaman of the Black Snake Tribe using the animal transformation technique, although it is large, has only the instinct of a ferocious beast, and may not have any witchcraft or other special attack methods.
As for the Rock Turtle, the Qingque Tribe had dealt with it.
In addition to its large size, the rock turtle also emits silent sound waves that resonate with people's heartbeats, and eventually explode to death.
At that time, Monkey Yi, who had been promoted to a third-grade totem warrior, was no match for it. Not to mention that the Qingque tribe only had two fifth-grade totems. Even if Yanhu and Cangshi could use the ultimate magic witch domino, it was useless.
Therefore, Yang Cheng attaches great importance to the environment near the tribe, fearing the emergence of high-level ferocious beasts that the Qingque tribe cannot resist.
Mai shook his head and said: "No, Wu, we were very safe all the way back, and we didn't encounter any high-level ferocious beasts."
"It would be better if I didn't..."
Yang Cheng nodded, and suddenly his eyes narrowed, and he saw a deep mark on Mai's shoulder. Looking behind Mai, he saw that all the members of the expedition team had deep or deeper marks on their shoulders. Marks of strangulation.
"This is what you are doing?"
Yang Cheng asked, pointing to the marks on Mai's shoulders.
"Oh, Wu, what are you talking about? This was left behind when we used vines to drag the raft when we came back. We transported a lot of copper ore this time," Mai explained.
"Didn't I tell you before? Don't transport too much at one time. Too much will make it difficult to move. If you encounter a high-level ferocious beast, it will be difficult to escape." Yang Cheng frowned slightly.
"This...actually..."
After being slightly scolded by Yang Cheng, Mai was a little hesitant and speechless.
At this time, Chang Guo struggled a few times, but was finally snatched away by Lu Mao.
After hearing Yang Cheng's accusation, Chang Guo came over and explained: "Wu, this is not Mai's fault. It's because we saw that the people in the Stone Tribe couldn't bear it, so we brought back so much copper ore."
Yang Cheng's eyes moved slightly and asked, "What's going on?"
"Witch, that's it."
Mai said: "Those people in the Stone Tribe are like crazy. When you left, you told them that they don't have to mine until late every day, and they can just mine during the day for a period of time every day.
But those people from the Stone Tribe mined for a long time every day, and they were still mining at night.
This is still a small part of it. When we passed by, the copper ore was piled up into a hill.
And looking at the people of the Stone Tribe, everyone was very tired and looking at us like that. We couldn't bear it, so we stayed near the Stone Tribe for a few more days and hunted some more ferocious beasts for them..."
After listening to Mai's words, Yang Cheng was a little silent.
Every family has its cupboard.
That's right, I let the people of the Stone Tribe not need to mine a lot of copper ore.
But for the Stone Tribe, copper ore is equivalent to food. If copper ore is not mined, they can only rely on their totem warriors for hunting.
But as for the totem warriors like Chang Shi, the power of the totem was previously sealed by the forbidden blood. It would be nice to go hunting without being hunted by ferocious beasts.
Therefore, the Stone Tribe’s crazy mining of copper ore is understandable.
It's just that it's a bit troublesome.
It's not that the Qingque tribe doesn't have enough food. Not to mention that the food produced by the Qingque tribe every day is enough for the tribe to eat for two or three days, so there is extra food.
Just at the Shicao tribe, there are still hundreds of ferocious beasts there, and there is more than enough food.
The reason is that the transportation capacity is not enough.
The Qingque Tribe has a limited number of totem warriors, so the number of expeditions sent to the wilderness each time is ten.
This is the limit that can be sent out. Any more will affect the development of the tribe.
So how to solve the problem of transportation capacity?
Yang Cheng thought about it and stood still.
And when he saw Yang Cheng suddenly stopped talking, there was no movement.
Everyone present immediately realized that Wu was thinking about something again.
Everyone suddenly became excited, because according to experience, every time the witch finishes thinking about something, something good will appear.
Everyone gave each other looks, telling everyone to be quiet and not to disturb Wu.
The first way Yang Cheng thought of was to add more bond beasts.
In addition to increasing the number of totem warriors, the only way to solve the problem of transportation capacity is to increase the number of bonded beasts.
However, the existing bonded beasts in the tribe have reached the upper limit of his daily production of intelligence-reducing witch dominoes. If he wants to make more intelligence-reducing witch dominoes to make the ferocious beasts become intelligent and then tame them into bonded beasts, then he Don't be exhausted.
"No, no, we can't add any more bonding beasts until we can make more witch dominoes that can reduce intelligence."
Yang Cheng thought about taking up more of his entertainment time every day to make witch dominoes, and immediately rejected the idea in his mind.
"Then what else can we do? Transportation capacity, transportation capacity..."
Yang Cheng frowned and thought. Suddenly, his eyes couldn't help but glanced at the raft filled with copper ore.
"Oh, damn, why did you forget this?"
Yang Cheng slapped his forehead regretfully, shook his head and smiled bitterly:
"Transportation capacity includes the number of people transported and the means of transportation. The restrained beast that was reduced to intelligence is a means of transportation, and this raft is also a means of transportation!
"Didn't I think about making wheels when I came back? Why didn't I think of it until now?"
This is not to be blamed on Yang Cheng. After leaving the ancestral land of the Black Monkey Tribe, he visited a place with many ferocious beasts, and also went to the Black Snake Tribe. At that time, the desire to return occupied his entire mind.
After returning to the tribe, I was busy making ramie cloth and taking mosquito control measures. I had long forgotten about making wooden wheels.
Everyone looked at Yang Cheng thinking, thinking, and suddenly slapped his head. They were startled, thinking that Wu was overthinking things and had damaged his head.
"Wu, are you okay?"
Mai asked cautiously.
Yang Cheng laughed loudly: "Haha, it's okay, I just thought of a very powerful thing that can make your expedition team less tired next time you go out, and the time will be shortened a lot!"
"Witch, is there really such a thing?"
Mai's eyes widened.
To say what he just said, it doesn't matter if you are outside, or if you are not tired, it is all lies.
Dragging a wooden raft carrying thousands of kilograms of copper ore in the wilderness, and having to be alert to the appearance of ferocious beasts, is very tiring both mentally and physically.
Not to mention, it takes more than half a month every time to take action in the wilderness.
But if you come here and there, come here a few times, it will be gone in a month or two. Too much time is wasted.
So everyone was surprised when they heard Yang Cheng say that there was such a powerful thing that could reduce fatigue and save time.
But then there was a strong excitement.
Because Yang Cheng never tells lies, if there is such a thing, there is such a thing!
