When returning to the city, Mr. Geng and Wang Wei walked together.

He looked around, then said: "Your Majesty, I want to thank you. Daohua's illness has been cured."

Wang Wei was stunned and asked: "Great? Why don't I think so? It's no different from before."

The old man Geng said: "Your Majesty, you don't know what Daohua was like before. I have been looking for various methods to no avail. Now Daohua can walk and jump. Isn't her illness cured?"

Daohua gets out of breath when doing a few movements during exercise. Although walking is easy, it is also very difficult for her to walk an extra mile, not to mention that during exercise, she can't even complete two sets of skipping. I thought to myself

This old man is either telling lies or making fun of people.

"Daohua's physical condition may be better than before, but it's not as good as you said. She needs to continue exercising."

"Then let's exercise. Your Majesty, is the Xia tribe still short of food?"

Wang Wei said: "Why is there no shortage? I just hope that the more food, the better."

The old man nodded silently. He knew that it was not easy to obtain food in the severe cold, especially in harsh weather and environment.

"Your Majesty will have to wait for a long time if you want to harvest rice. I have a way to get more rice in just a few days."

Wang Wei was curious, "What method?"

The old man took a deep breath and asked, "Does your Majesty know about the ten warehouses of rice in the Dao Tribe?"

Wang Wei nodded and said: "But Daohua's disease has not been cured yet, and I don't know how long it will take."

The old man shook his head repeatedly and said: "Your Majesty is too sincere, why do you need the rice flowers to be cured in order to obtain food? Your Majesty can send people directly to the rice tribe, tell them that the rice flowers have recovered from the disease, and ask them to prepare rice."

Wang Wei didn't expect this to happen, but Old Man Geng's method was not bad, but the Xia Tribe hadn't defrauded the Dao Tribe yet.

"Although your method is good, I can't do it. The Xia tribe is now trading food with other tribes, and our hunting group is also hunting animals. I think the Xia tribe can persist until the rice harvest."

The old man was a little anxious, because his plan failed just after it was implemented, and he felt unwilling. So he said: "Your Majesty, you don't understand Daocheng. Even if you cure the disease of Daocheng, he will not give it to the Xia tribe."

That ten warehouses of rice. So, when the Xia tribe is short of food, we have to find a way to get Daocheng to bring it out."

Wang Wei knew that some old men had been treated unfairly by the Dao tribe, so he did not trust Daocheng and thought it was normal for the old men to have such thoughts. However, Wang Wei was also happy that the old men could think of the Xia tribe.

He already regarded himself as a Xia tribe member.

However, if Wang Wei really follows the advice of the old man Geng, and the Dao tribe later finds out that it is the Xia tribe who is blackmailing him, then the image of the Xia tribe or his personal influence will be damaged. This will make the Xia tribe people feel that their king is a

A greedy and scoundrel person. How can he set an example in the Xia tribe in the future? He wants to leave an image of an upright, brave, smart, and great king to the Xia tribe people, so as to inspire and unite everyone in the Xia tribe.

It's hard to explain clearly what he said, but he just said to the old man Geng:

"The only way for the Xia tribe to obtain rice at present is to trade with other tribes. If the Dao tribe trades with the Xia tribe, I would be willing to do so. But if I were asked to blackmail the Dao tribe, I can't do it now."

The old man Geng thought, if it can't be done now, when can it be done? Can it be done when the food in the Xia tribe is finished? But he knows that the Xia tribe still has a lot of food, and the hunting group has been actively hunting and trading with other tribes.

, the Xia tribe will not be short of food for a while. Is it necessary to burn the food in the warehouse with a fire?

A cold air suddenly came out from his back. This idea was too sinister. For Daohua's sake, he threw away the idea and thought of another way. He said: "The king is kind, and the Xia tribe only has a king."

Stronger."

Wang Wei waved his hand sheepishly. He then asked the old man about the rice yield, how much land was needed to ensure food for everyone, and other related issues.

At this time, there was a commotion at the simple dock of Yong'an River. When Wang Wei and Old Man Geng looked, they found that the tiger had returned from the wilderness on the other side of the river.

Today, Lei Hu went to explore the wilderness on the other side of the river. They went to many places. Because they saw groups of wild animals, he led the hunting team to hunt on horseback.

When he came back from the other side of the river yesterday, he told Wang Wei that there were many animals in the wilderness on the other side. Wang Wei simply asked him to lead a hunting team on the other side of the river in the future, so that he could find out about the Beidi people while hunting.

It can be heard from the bustling sounds coming from the simple dock that the tiger has harvested a lot of food this time.

Hu Meizi came over on horseback with Daohua sitting on the horse. They were returning to the city from the gym in the hot spring valley.

Wang Wei saw Daohua riding a horse and was shaken by the cold wind. She was shivering from the cold and her lips were black and blue. She hugged Hu Meizi tightly from behind and refused to let go.

Hu Meizi is really bold and careless. She doesn't understand that once a cold occurs in primitive society, it is not easy to cure; and Daohua is already weak, so if she really catches a cold, it is not impossible that she will die regardless of suffering.

When the old man saw the state of rice blossoms, his expression changed drastically.

Wang Wei then asked Daohua to dismount and put the animal skin cloak he was wearing on Daohua.

The old man Geng and Hu Meizi next to him both looked straight.

Then the old man Hougeng wanted to say something, but he didn't say it and kept grinning.

Hu Meizi wanted to say it but didn't dare to say it, complaining in her heart.

Daohua looked shy, lowering her head and not daring to look at anyone.

Wang Wei said: "You are weak, so don't catch a cold. It seems that the Xia tribe has to make a carriage, which is better than riding a horse."

The old man asked: "Your Majesty, what is a carriage?"

Wang Wei said: "A carriage is a two-wheeled vehicle used to carry people or transport goods. It can also be a four-wheeled vehicle. It is usually pulled by horses and oxen."

Hu Meizi said: "It's better to ride a horse than a carriage."

Wang Wei nodded and said: "Hu Meizi is right. In terms of mobility, riding a horse is the most convenient. The carriage has a shortcoming. Sitting in it is actually quite bumpy. If you are not used to it, you will feel uncomfortable and may easily vomit. But

, the horse-drawn carriage also has many advantages, such as being able to shelter from the wind and carrying many people. As long as the road is repaired, it will not be so bumpy."

Hu Meizi said: "Since it is so good, your Majesty should have made it long ago."

Wang Wei just smiled and asked the old man to take the rice flowers back to the city to rest.

Then Wang Wei got on his horse, sat behind Hu Meizi, and hugged her waist as tightly as Daohua did, and said: "Let's go to the hot spring valley to soak in the hot springs. I have been working hard all afternoon."

Hu Meizi said: "Your Majesty, why don't you go back to the courtyard to take a bath?"

Wang Wei said: "It's troublesome to boil that bucket of water. It's better to go to the hot springs."

Hu Meizi said a little worriedly: "There is no one in the hot spring valley now. The patrols have all left. It's a bit unsafe."

Wang Wei said: "This is the territory of the Xia tribe. Who will come at night?"

Hu Meizi was helpless, so the two of them rode towards the hot spring valley.

When it was getting dark, more lively cheers came from the Xia tribe. It turned out that the hunting group led by Xia Feng had returned from the Leopard tribe. They had also brought the supplies that the Root tribe had sent to the Leopard tribe.

return.

------

Root tribe.

Da Gen was unhappy after returning from the Dao tribe, and he was troubled by Dao Cheng's cautious trip to the Xia tribe to trade and explore information.

Today's visit to the Dao Tribe did not make Dao Cheng feel resentful towards the Xia Tribe. Instead, it made Dao Cheng afraid of provoking the Xia Tribe. He also felt very angry. How could the Xia Tribe be so powerful?

In the past, I heard from my servant that the Xia tribe used weeds to intimidate people. How could the Xia tribe be as powerful as the Root tribe at that time? How come it has become the Root tribe now, and the Dao tribe no longer dares to offend them?

In terms of population, the Xia tribe does not have as many people as the Gen tribe and the Dao tribe, but in terms of weapons, equipment and force, the Xia tribe is indeed much stronger than them!

When Dagen was worried, one of his subordinates came to report the situation.

It turns out that Dagen has never given up looking for Daqi and had never wanted to harm Daqi before. But Nunying said that since Daqi was not Laogen’s biological child, Dagen did not have to stick to his promise to Laogen. In addition, she knew that Daqi was Geng who came forward.

Wu's biological son, then Da Qi cannot be allowed to live.

He asked: "The old guy hasn't said anything yet?"

The subordinate said: "I didn't say, do you want to give him some more hardship?"

Dagen said: "How many days has he been hungry?"

The hand held out five fingers and said, "I didn't even give him any water."

Dagen thought for a while and said, "Don't let him starve to death. That would not be in line with his wishes. Ask the people close to him and be sure to ask where the treasure is."

When he thought of this, he suddenly wondered if Daqi was in the Xia tribe? But he immediately shook his head. Daqi had a grudge against the Xia tribe and would not go to the Xia tribe.

At this time Nunying arrived, and Dagen asked his men to go down.

He told Nunying how he went to the Dao tribe, and said that the Dao tribe was also afraid of the Xia tribe.

Ying said: "Daocheng doesn't know much about the Xia tribe, how could he be afraid?"

Dagen asked: "If he was not afraid, then when he knew that Daohua was in the Xia tribe, he should have taken people to the Xia tribe to ask for people, but he did not dare."

Ying smiled and said: "Not so fast, at least we have to understand the Xia tribe clearly."

Dagen nodded, "So Daocheng is going to the Xia tribe to trade, just to find out information about the Xia tribe."

"Daocheng is not as impulsive as we thought. You just need to wait. We also need to find out the weapons of the Xia tribe and prepare for the future."

Speaking of the weapons of the Xia tribe, Dagen became interested. He was still deeply impressed by being defeated by the Xia tribe yesterday. If the warriors of the Root tribe could wield those sharp weapons and wear armor like the Xia tribe, then the Root tribe would

It will inevitably be stronger and will definitely win the conflict. He really hopes that the weapons of the Xia tribe can also be traded. However, hope is always accompanied by disappointment. The servant told him that the weapons of the Xia tribe are not traded with outsiders. It’s really

What a pity.

"It's too difficult to find out the Xia tribe's weapons. Do you have any ideas?"

"We can only send people to the Xia tribe, but it doesn't work. Shang Jiu and the twins sent by Daqi both failed."

The two couldn't handle it for a while, so they talked about the Leopard Tribe again. The Leopard Tribe suffered a huge loss yesterday, which was undoubtedly a heavy blow to them. They didn't know what their situation was like. They hoped that the Leopard Tribe could survive it and took the supplies sent by the tribe.

I hope the Leopard Tribe can use it.
