Daidai was not aware of any changes in himself at all. He looked at Ye Qiong with a confused look on his face, his two bear eyes flickering.
Ye Qiong continued to mutter twice in confusion.
Why did the long-tailed bear grow horns?
Ye Qiong has lived so long that, except for the three long-tailed bears in the tribe, he has only seen long-tailed bears from other tribes in the summer.
To be honest, there is no difference between Dakui and Guoguo.
But Dakui and Guoguo don't have horns, Ye Qiong is very sure about this, and the long-tailed bears he saw before had clean foreheads, with nothing but fur.
Why did Daidai grow a horn?
Although it doesn't seem obvious yet, if you don't look carefully, you won't be able to spot it at all.
Mutations?
Ye Qiong raised his dazed face and looked up, down, left and right under the still confused gaze, but couldn't see anything unusual.
He was in good spirits. Apart from losing some weight, nothing else had changed. Ye Qiong could only put this matter aside for the time being, and ate all the dried meat of the king lion and elk that he carried with him. stay.
Now there are only a few dozen kilograms of King Lion Elk's meat left, and it won't be long before it's all gone.
Daidai stuffed a few pieces of the king lion elk's dried meat into his mouth. This little piece of dried meat was definitely not enough for him to eat.
After swallowing the dried meat of the King Lion Elk into his stomach, he looked at Ye Qiong blankly, still unsatisfied.
I fiddled with my stupidly huge forehead a few times again. Except for the small horn about two centimeters high that grew out between the eyebrows, there was nothing else out of the ordinary. It seemed like nothing was wrong.
Ye Qiong can only observe it first, and then talk about it after a while. If there is anything abnormal, just find a pair of scissors and cut it off.
Taking Daidai to the place where the tribe stores dried meat, Ye Qiong took out some dried meat from King Lion and Elk himself, and then made a lot of dried meat from King Elk for Daidai.
After Daidai had eaten and drank enough, Ye Qiong took Daidai and ran to the north wall.
The Dinglong Mountain Range is to the east of the tribe, and towers into the clouds when viewed from the city wall on the north side.
There is now a road on the north side, leading to the coal mine.
Ye Qiong has been idle in the tribe for two months. The research on steam engines gives Ye Qiong a little headache.
The main reason is that iron is relatively scarce. The iron tools collected in the tribe in the past are basically used to make weapons, and the remaining small parts are also made into things for hunting or making city defense traps.
If Ye Qiong wanted to build a steam engine, he would need to consume a lot of smelting iron.
We can only let it go temporarily and collect more iron after spring, or let their caravans collect it from tribe to tribe.
There is no currency on Snow Planet now. It is in an era of barter. Dried fruits and dried meat are relatively easy to exchange.
These two things can actually be regarded as the currency in circulation on Snow Star. Just like rice in Ye Qiong's world, food can measure the value of currency.
So in other words, food itself can also be understood as currency, because it is a necessity, but it is very inconvenient to carry. When Ye Qiong was a child in his last life, he could still carry rice to the school in exchange for food stamps in the cafeteria. , the kind of food stamps are the same as those bought with money.
Ye Qiong is now waiting for the beginning of spring, and then frantically collecting supplies, but what the Ye Qiong tribe can get now is not food.
On Snow Star, the value of dried fruits is far greater than that of meat. Although the Ye Qiong tribe has stored several large pits of meat, it is too cost-effective to exchange the meat with other tribes.
As for dried fruits and grain, the tribe itself doesn’t even have enough.
After thinking about it, in addition to dried fruits and grains, the Ye Qiong tribe has another valuable thing that can be traded, and that is coal mines. There is a prerequisite for trading with coal.
That means other tribes on Snow Star must see the value of coal.
Once other tribes discover the value of coal, the rest of the matter will be solved, and the Ye Qiong tribe will have a lot of wealth.
If you want to develop civilized science and technology, if you don't have huge financial reserves, it's sheer nonsense, you'll be stretched thin, and you can't even talk about development.
Therefore, coal mining cannot stop. When coal starts to work in the future, every piece of coal mined will be money!
But in addition to coal, Ye Qiong now has one more thing that must be prepared, and that is land!
Ye Qiong has been preparing for the land that can be planted for three years. Since three years ago, Ye Qiong has been collecting and storing some food seeds intentionally or unintentionally.
There are many kinds of edible fruits on Snow Star, but Ye Qiong has not found any crops that can be planted. This kind of thing is really difficult to get for a while. If corn and barley can be found, it will be perfect. .
It's a pity that Ye Qiong has never seen these two crops, or anything similar, since he came to this world. He probably doesn't have them, so he can only find other crops that can replace them.
The requirement is to be able to sow in spring and harvest in autumn.
Although no such crop was found, Ye Qiong still stored a lot of fruits and some seeds that could be used as vegetables.
Now we have to find a piece of land and prepare it.
Ye Qiong stood on the high tower on the north side of the city wall and began to look around to see where the terrain was flatter.
After looking around, I saw the tribe's ice wall behind the city wall on the north side.
Behind the ice wall, there is a hot spring, and before the ice wall, it is the location where the mad crowd attacked last time.
Ye Qiong looked around again and found that this place was indeed suitable. Before the tribe's population exceeded 10,000, there would be a lot of free space within the stone city wall.
These places are quite suitable for temporarily growing some annual vegetables, but fruit trees that grow and bear fruit all year round need to be planted outside the city walls.
As long as these crops can be planted and grow well, they will play a very decisive role in Snow Star Civilization.
There are seven kilometers of stone walls in length and breadth, and the area enclosed is about three hundred acres of land.
If two thousand people live together, a dozen acres of land will be enough. The pyramid Ye Qiong is planning to build is still very high.
Like the world Ye Qiong lived in in his previous life, over 10,000 humans could easily live in one skyscraper.
After selecting the location, some second-line soldiers must be dispatched to prepare. Before spring, the secret passages and city defenses on this side of the ice wall must be dismantled, and then handed over to the front-line soldiers to build them outside the stone wall. .
After leveling the land, you can plant crops directly when spring starts tomorrow and wait for the results of the experiment.
Ye Qiong called a Qiongqi warrior next to him, and after giving some instructions, he jumped directly from the high tower of the city wall with Dudu.
