Chapter 19 On the fortification

The so-called stable operation of the Keyishan tribe means that the iron ore mining industry, whose scale has expanded rapidly with the growth of labor force, is in addition to maintaining the peace and stability of the tribe.

Speaking of which, the orcs are simple and powerful, and they can't work hard. They are the most perfect laborers in the world. The iron ore mining of the Base Mountain tribe is based on the hundreds of alloy tools provided by Zhang Quan, plus the most simple transportation tools - dozens of large two-wheeled metal trolleys specially made on the earth, and the strong and strong bodies of the orcs, which have created a miracle of 700 miners in the Base Mountain Iron ore that produces 2,000 tons of iron ore sunrise.

These orcs are very different from those on earth. When they work, they are really hardworking, have good physical fitness and strong endurance. They have a total of twenty-seven hours a day. They can catch up with seventeen or eighteen hours without complaining about being tired. They are even more durable than robots. When they are taken to the earth world, they are all the same as model production personnel in factories.

Of course, the greatest contribution to all of this in front of you is undoubtedly the owner of the tribe, Zhang Quan. The food and various survival supplies he purchased from the Earth World are the biggest reason why these more than 2,000 orcs in the tribe can work honestly.

The pointer of the watch from the Earth World in Zhang Quan's hand pointed to the day of September 8, 2015. The climate that had been brewing on the wasteland finally transformed. Overnight, thousands of miles of silver were white. The ancient and ancient orcs finally saw the snow demon. The snow demon like goose feathers fell from the sky and covered it with more than a foot of thick clothes unreasonably. When the orcs got up and prepared to work and eat, they saw a vast white scene between the heaven and the earth.

If this kind of scene is seen by the little citizens on earth, they will naturally not be afraid. On the contrary, they will even feel a little beautiful. Some of the young men with a tendency toward literary youth may even chant a few poems like "The scenery of the north is so beautiful that thousands of miles of ice are frozen" under the scene. However, here, the orc wasteland on the Gaia continent only has one explanation for such a scenery, that is, snow disaster!

Snow disasters are nightmares for orc tribes on the wasteland. The vast snow will cover the surface and allow livestock to find the last grass and destroy the last glimmer of life for livestock. If the livestock is lost, the owners of this wasteland will only starve to death. Not to mention other harms caused by heavy snow. They collapse the tents of the orcs and freeze the rushing rivers like lifelines on the wasteland. In the eyes of the orcs, the ancient name of snow disasters on the great wasteland naturally brings them only harm, but there is no trace of beauty.

The Zhangquan base mountain tribe is actually facing the same thing now. The heavy snow blocking of roads is not only inconvenient to travel, but also greatly affects the production of the tribe. The tribe's open-pit mine has been expanded to a radius of three or four acres, which can accommodate hundreds of strong orc men working in the pit at the same time. However, when the heavy snow comes, the place will suffer. The snow in the mine is filled with half of the pit overnight. Not only does it make it impossible for miners to go in and work, but after a period of time, the snow in the mine will naturally accumulate ice. Even if the entire mine is abandoned, the ice layer will probably not melt by next spring.

The orcs in the tribe all knew how powerful it was. As soon as they woke up in the morning, they quickly organized everyone to get up and shovel the snow in the mine, and used two-wheeled carts to push the snow out of the mine and throw it outside to reopen the work surface. However, even if the orcs were extremely powerful, they would not be efficient. It seemed that the mine would not be able to resume production within at least a few days.

Zhang Quan also has to be glad that the orcs' requirements for wearing are extremely low. Until now, in this weather, the thermometer pointer brought by Zhang Quan from the Earth World pointed to the scale of minus twenty degrees below zero. The orcs were still dressed as they were naked, mostly just a layer of animal skin around their waists. In such weather, at least Zhang Quan saved a lot of money in purchasing clothes, and there was no need to consider the expenses in this area.

But clothes can be saved, but they cannot be saved in heating. Orcs are all flesh and blood. At most, they are more cold-resistant than those on earth, and their body hair is much thicker than those on earth, which is equivalent to having a high-end down jacket on their bodies. Otherwise, under such a temperature, even orcs will find it difficult to survive like this.

Before Zhang Quan could find a way, the orcs were familiar with the organization to light bonfires in the cave where they lived. However, as soon as the fuel was released, Zhang Quan immediately saw the advanced survival wisdom of the brothers of the nomadic civilization in the ancient wastelands about the thrifty, simple ecological cycle society.

Damn! These brothers actually used the dry manure of livestock, which was feces! As soon as the bonfire burned, the smell in the entire cave was really pungent, which made Zhang Quan churn the spleen and stomach churn, and he felt disgusting. But on the other hand, the orcs were willing to accept it, perhaps because it was because of the strong body odor! Zhang Quan thought fiercely himself.

Although he is considered a patriarch, Zhang Quan does not have much room for himself to argue with the living habits of the orcs. His backward living conditions, poor hygiene, traditional customs, and thousands of years of preaching have given him stubborn vitality. Zhang Quan can only ignore this for the time being.

But in such weather, there was no chance to give him the entire clan leader a leisurely time. After a while, the tribe's butler, Old Kate, came to talk to him about the matter.

In addition to the big stall in front of the tribe, there is another urgent matter. That is, there is not enough space in the cave to live, and the new tribes have no place to live.

It would be easy to deal with such a thing before the heavy snow came, so it would be fine if the ministers set up a tent on the spot, but overnight, the snow demon came, and the simple tents of the ministers were not enough to use. Seventy or eighty percent of the tents were crushed by the heavy snow that had fallen last night. These ministers had to arrange a place to live.

Zhang Quan greeted his backbone, oh, now, these people are called elders according to the habits of their orcs, and gathered together to discuss this matter.

Before he could say a few words, Zhang Quan's number one technician, the smelting engineer, Gailong, shouted loudly.

"Sir, let's build a city!"

"Build a city?" Zhang Quan was still hesitating when he heard this, and the other orcs next to him were already clamoring.

"Yes! Build a city!"

"fortification!"

Gailon continued,

"Sir, look, we don't have to worry about food or drink now. There are also our iron ore here, and our population is prosperous and our soldiers are strong! It's all like this, so let's just build a city!"

"Yes, build a city, build a city!"

"Once we build a majestic city on this wasteland! Who else dares to bully us?" The elders were all so excited that they kept catering to each other, and were so happy that they were as if they were the Chinese New Year. Zhang Quan came here, as the patriarch of a tribe for so long, but he had never seen the orcs under his command be so enthusiastic about something.

After a long time, Zhang Quan figured out this matter from his subordinates' discussions. It turned out that building a city had such great significance to a tribe on the wasteland.
