Chapter 254 Matrilineal Caravan
Chapter 254 Matrilineal Caravan
It is true that where there are people, there is competition.
Once the extra meal reward was given, the pressure on the original refugees doubled. With no one supervising them, they worked until they were sweating profusely and worked as hard as they were asked to.
Seeing this, the newly arrived refugees naturally did not want to be outdone. They also wanted meat as a snack.
In this way, the two groups of refugees competed with each other and the progress of the project was at least improved by half.
At noon on February 2st, the Huitong merchant ship appeared again in the river of Forgotten Township after more than two months.
The iconic hearty voice rang out on the deck: "Haha, brothers, here we come."
"Manager Liu, I won't go back to pass the message. Please do as you please." The patrolman waved his hand.
"Haha, no need, no need. Go and do your own thing, brother." Liu Yu waved back.
"Shopkeeper Liu, did you get married? Your face is so rosy." An old lady who was planting rice in the field teased Liu Yu.
"Big sister, you have sharp eyes. You can see all this."
"He's really getting married, so congratulations to Shopkeeper Liu."
"Congratulations, Shopkeeper Liu, for marrying the beautiful lady."
"Congratulations!" Congratulations rang out.
"Haha, thank you so much, congratulations." Liu Yu's face was beaming as he returned the greeting, his face was so happy, I have a wife.
Well, it’s better to be in another world, I can marry a wife, not like...
"Haha, Manager Liu, is your wife beautiful?" Heizi arrived as promised.
"She must be beautiful." Liu Yu said, patting his chest.
"Haha, then why are they turning around and laughing?" Heizichi pointed at Chen Jun and the others.
"That's because they don't understand beauty. Heizi, let me tell you, a big butt makes it easier to give birth, and a little chubby makes you look fleshy..." Liu Yu's voice got lower and lower.
His arrival not only brought goods, but also intelligence from the outside world.
This is what Forgotten Country needs.
In the evening, a welcoming dinner was held in the pavilion on Yanfeng Mountain.
"Now Jufeng City has been relieved, but the ghost crisis has not been resolved. Instead, it has become more and more serious and has even spread to the mainland."
Hearing Liu Yu's words, the old patriarch and the monk Liangshan couldn't help but look at each other secretly.
“I don’t know what’s going on, but there are ghost stories everywhere on the continent, and they’re very serious. The number of temple believers is increasing dramatically.” Liu Yu said, looking towards Shang Liangshan.
"The increase in the number of believers is indeed much higher." Shang Liangshan responded, and then thought about the words of the Xuanming Sect's leader: "The Yin Road is unstable and the Nine Netherworlds appear."
After Liu Yu got the answer, he took a sip of wine and continued, "It's haunted, ghosts are rampant, and evil cultivators and demon cultivators have also appeared."
"The two of them committed a heinous murder, slaughtering a border town with a population of more than 100,000 people."
"What?" There was a cry of surprise.
Liu Yu was not surprised at all and continued, "Once the news spread, people were immediately panicked."
"The righteous forces were furious about this and issued a warrant to hunt down the murderer, causing a lot of commotion."
"To be honest, I was terrified all the way here, fearing that I would encounter evil cultivators or demon cultivators."
After listening to Liu Yu's story, everyone fell into deep thought. The world was really in chaos.
"Let's drink. No matter how chaotic it is, as long as we don't make any chaos." Yihuo shook his head and raised his glass.
"It's okay to drink, no matter how chaotic it is." Liu Yu was the first to respond.
The old patriarch and others also raised their glasses, put their worries aside, and toasted each other.
The boundary is a hundred miles, which is big but not small either.
After more than half a month of clearing and clearing, the three elimination teams stopped advancing. They had completed the task of clearing the ghosts from the hunting grounds, and the next step was hunting.
However, time flies in the mountains. As soon as Yixiong and his companions stopped, they were greeted by a joint caravan from the villages. Both sides were extremely happy to see each other. There is strength in numbers and they feel safe.
When the joint caravan of villages and towns learned that the Forgotten Village was clearing out ghosts within a hundred miles on three sides, they were all surprised at how powerful the village was.
At the same time, I was also happy that there would be no ghost attacks on the rest of the journey.
Their journey was not easy, and one could even say it was one of fear and anxiety. Unexpected encounters with ghosts were common.
Fortunately, the level of the ghosts was not high, and the troops sent out by each village were elite, so they were able to kill their way here, and it was inevitable that they were physically and mentally exhausted.
Therefore, the joint caravan of the villages, at the enthusiastic invitation of Yixiong and others, decided to go to the former's temporary camp to rest and then set off for Forgotten Village the next day.
Where there is one, there will be two. As the caravans from the villages and towns stopped and gathered together, huge caravans were formed.
When there are more people, a communication platform is naturally formed. According to the suggestion of some caring people, in order to deal with attacks by ghosts, it is best to travel in groups on the return journey.
It is natural that there are objections to suggestions, and that is because the paths are different.
The solution is obvious, which is to work together to build a central trade route.
As soon as this topic was raised, it was agreed upon by most village elders.
After all, this middle way of doing business is beneficial to all parties.
In this way, without the knowledge of Liu Yu and his men, the elders of the village caravan team reached a consensus and built three trade routes to the center.
The advantage of making this proposal is that it also achieves one's own goal.
Time passed day by day, and as Yifeng and Liu Yu waited, huge caravans gathered from all directions, and the number of people in the market exceeded ten thousand.
A surprise appeared in the joint caravan of the mountain villages. There were more than a dozen matriarchal caravans among the caravans that arrived this time.
For this reason, Yifeng and Liu Yu found Manshan to discuss how to resettle the matriarchal village team.
The tigress who plays with poison is not to be trifled with, she must be properly dealt with.
"Brother Feng, Brother Liu, the maternal caravan does need to find another place to settle, at least it cannot be settled together with us." Manshan nodded in agreement.
As soon as he finished speaking, a capable female voice came from behind him: "No need to find another place to resettle us, we are not afraid of you stinky men."
Yifeng and Liu Yu looked in the direction of the voice and saw a girl in her early fifties with slightly gray hair, a silver ornament on her head, a gray horse skirt, and tattoos on her face, walking over with a dozen other girls wearing the same clothes and decorations.
Upon hearing this, Manshan hurriedly explained: "Ah, Elder Zhu, fellow elders, I don't mean anything else, it's just that Mr. Yifeng is a Confucian."
"Forgotten Township treats the female half of the sky equally, but there are still differences between men and women, so it is necessary to find a good place for all the half of the sky to have a good rest."
It was really difficult for him, as he had to explain the reason clearly and at the same time pass the blame.
"Yes, yes, Brother Manshan is right." Liu Yu hurriedly agreed. He couldn't afford to offend the elder sister who played with Gu.
Yi Feng's mouth twitched when he heard this. After thinking for a while, he bowed to the group of older girls who were looking at him and said, "Zhu Zhu Jing Nu, since there are too many caravans, the market cannot accommodate them. So how about you move the caravan to the dock?"
"Yes, yes, yes, dock, this is arranged." Liu Yu clapped his hands in agreement.
