As a result, when Tang Ping took Elder Eucalyptus and others to the cafeteria to eat, word spread throughout the military camp that Duke Ping had brought back a woman with almost no clothes on.
When Tang Ping and the others came back with a few people serving food on dinner plates, Elder Eucalyptus looked at the wooden dinner plates curiously and asked, "Do all the people here eat like this?"
Tang Ping shook his head and said: "We don't do this at home. We always eat in bowls at home. This is the way we eat in a military camp."
He pointed at the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who were looking out for strange things and said: "They are all soldiers. In our tribe, they are responsible for fighting."
"So many!" Elder Eucalyptus was stunned. Along the way just now, she saw many people wearing exactly the same clothes. She initially thought that these people were from the Tangping tribe, but Now Tang Ping says that these people are only responsible for fighting.
You must know that her tribe only has a few hundred people in total, and there are more people fighting here in Tang Ping than in their entire tribe.
"Then why don't you conquer me?"
"Cough cough cough..." Such a sudden sentence made Tang Ping almost choke to death while eating.
With tears streaming down his face, Lao Cui patted him several times to calm him down.
"What did you say?"
"I said you are so powerful, why didn't you choose to conquer our Eucalyptus Tribe?"
"Ahem, please speak more clearly next time!" Tang Ping didn't expect the other party to speak so directly, so he explained: "What's the benefit of us conquering you? It can make you work, but we still have to feed you. of?"
"And since you have been conquered, you will naturally be unwilling. When you work for me, you may not be so attentive. What if I beat you and force you? It will still affect efficiency."
"So the most perfect way now is that I give you what you need, and in order to get more of what you need, you will work more and more actively for me. I call this a win-win situation."
Elder Eucalyptus nodded: "I don't really understand, but I know, Tang, you are a good person."
Okay, got a good guy card.
Tang Ping knocked on the dinner plate: "Eat quickly and choose something after eating."
These dishes were something several of them had never tasted before. Wuyun and Hongshi even ordered more dishes twice, almost eating themselves to death.
eat
After dinner, Tang Ping took Elder Eucalyptus and the others to the warehouse, while Hongshi and Wuyun made a request.
"Amazing Tang, we want to help you pick up rocks now. The food you mentioned still counts, right?"
Tang Ping didn't expect these two guys to be so hardworking. There are no workers in the mine yet, but they have all the tools for building camps and other things.
So Tang Ping took the two of them and each received a pair of gloves, a mining pick and a wheelbarrow.
Then he took them to the mining area and said: "Put the red stones you picked up or dug out into this cart, and then push them to the transfer area over there. There are steam trucks parked there. You can pour the stones in again." The truck is complete.”
The transfer area is very easy to recognize. It is a slope. After going up, the truck bed is just flush with the top of the slope. They can push the truck directly into the truck bed and dump it. ore.
"The truck bed is about the size of three pits, so if you fill one truck bed, you can get three bags of rice."
Hongshi and Wuyun looked at each other, nodded excitedly, and then said to Tang Ping, "Don't worry, we will work hard."
The two of them are also smart. Many stones in the mining area are above the ground. There is no need to dig them at all. They just pick them up and put them on the trolley. After they are full, the two of them push them to the transfer area.
Tang Ping estimated that the two of them could basically fill a truck bucket in half a day. After all, there was no need to dig now, they could just pick it up on the ground.
Ignoring the two of them, he took Elder Eucalyptus to the warehouse in the camp.
"Here are rice noodles, here are convenience foods, canned food and compressed biscuits."
Tang Ping introduced: "You can take some of these compressed biscuits with you when you are traveling far away. You can fill up your stomach with just a small piece, and they are also very nutritious."
Elder Eucalyptus didn't care whether she understood or not, she just nodded when Tang Ping said it was okay.
"These are some of our tools. You saw them just now. The ones used by Red Stone Black Cloud and others can speed up the efficiency of work."
Tang Ping introduced the contents of the warehouse from beginning to end, and finally took Elder Eucalyptus to a small warehouse in the innermost part.
"These are all our weapons. As agreed, I will give you ten as a gift."
Tang Ping asked someone to open the weapons arsenal, and not only took ten long knives and ten sets of bows and arrows,
, and brought out ten additional spears.
"The people of your tribe seem to be very accustomed to using wooden spears. I think you will be more comfortable with this."
"Thank you, good man Tang." Elder Eucalyptus thanked him sincerely: "I think I know what we need."
She pointed at the warehouse and said: "Your houses are all built with square stones like this. You must know how to make them, right? I want to replace the houses of our tribe with something like this."
"No problem." Tang Ping didn't expect that the first thing she mentioned was bricks, but it was right when he thought about it. People can't live without food, clothing, housing and transportation.
They have their own style of clothing, and as for food, they will not be short of it, so the first priority should be accommodation.
The brick houses in Datang's camp are visibly stronger than the thatched wooden houses of their tribe.
"You can choose to exchange bricks from us, which is this kind of stone, and let my people teach you to build your own house, or I can send people to build your house for you. Of course, the latter will be more expensive."
"How much more expensive?"
"It's twice as expensive." Tang Ping said, "I suggest you use my people. Not only can we build houses, but we can also build walls and sentries for you, just like what you saw when you came in."
"Okay!" Elder Eucalyptus agreed decisively: "Not everyone is a good person like you, Tang. When we have more food in the future, there may be other tribes with bad ideas, and I need to protect me. tribesmen."
Tang Ping said with a smile: "Yes, there is a saying in our place that you cannot have thoughts of harming others, but you cannot be unprepared for other people's thoughts."
"And I think that in the future, all tribes will come to you to receive food. Let our people build a warehouse and an outpost at your place. This will be convenient and provide you with some protection."
"Thank you, Tang. And I also want to exchange some of your tools from you." Elder Eucalyptus said honestly: "Many of your tools are more powerful than our weapons, and we can even use them as weapons."
She was referring to iron tools such as axes, hoes, and mining picks, which were indeed more powerful than their wooden spears.
"No problem, we can write it down, and I will ask people to send it over first. If you have accumulated enough rice, you can exchange it with us."
