Chapter 191 City 11
After some discussion, everyone decided to build a road between the tribe and the salt mountain first, so that they could go to the salt mine every once in a while. Now that the animal trainers and the herds are gone, the tribes that used to go to the salt mountain to exchange salt will slowly reappear. After all, salt is a necessity.
At that time, we can slowly spread the news and let these tribes go to the Taoli tribe to exchange salt and other things to attract more people. There will always be people willing to stay around the tribe. When there are more people, we can engage in construction, breeding, and build a real city.
The hunters were divided into two teams. Every morning, one team was responsible for digging caves on the mountain, and the other team was responsible for repairing roads. After lunch, one team stayed in the tribe to rest, while the other team went out hunting. In this way, they took turns every day, and everyone could rest for half a day every two days and would not be too tired.
The excavated soil does not even need to be transported down the mountain, but is directly taken to the pottery kiln to be burned into bricks for future use.
After nearly a month of hard work, a path that was not very wide but flat was built.
It only took two days to pull the cart back and forth to the salt mountain, which saved a lot of trouble. Some hunters even started learning how to ride a bicycle so that they could go even faster.
Although it's not much faster, after all, this is in the mountains, and many uphill roads are very steep, so the car can only be pushed.
This road has raised the "market value" of bicycles a lot. Recently, people come to Jilang every day to exchange bicycles.
Ah Qing touched his own car, his eyes sparkling, and said to Ji Lang excitedly, "Thank you, priest." Then he turned to look at Ah Heng, "Thank you, father."
This was exchanged for the two goats caught by Ah Heng and Ah Nan.
In fact, Ji Lang felt that he had made a good deal. After all, these were two pregnant female goats. He originally only wanted one, but no matter what Ah Heng said, he would not accept it.
After much persuasion, Ah Heng was finally allowed to pull back a cart.
This is necessary for them. After all, they will go to the Yanshan Tribe to transport salt back. With a cart, they can carry several loads of stuff in one trip.
Xiaoman pouted, very dissatisfied. He felt that he was already a big kid. Feng had a bicycle, Wu had a bicycle, Xiaopang had a bicycle, and now even Aqing had one, but he still didn't have one.
Ji Lang pinched his little mouth and said, "Hey, why is there a little duck here?"
"Uh-huh, it's not a duckling." He said incoherently, "Father, I want a bicycle too."
Ji Lang stood up and compared his height, which was just above the thigh, definitely tiny. "No, you are short now. It's dangerous to ride a bicycle in the mountains. You can wait until you grow to the height of a wutong." After all, the roads here are not the wide and smooth asphalt roads in the original world. There are some places with steep slopes and Ji Lang does not dare to ride.
"Then when will it be?" Xiaoman was very frustrated. Wu was almost two heads taller than him now. He was really afraid that he would not be able to grow that tall even when he grew up.
The two cubs of Miaozi have grown to be almost as big as Miaozi. They are now lying on the moisture-proof mat used to dry vegetables in the yard, basking in the sun and licking their fur lazily. Xiaoman is very envious, "I wish I could grow as fast as the cat."
Ji Lang touched his round little head. Ever since he was sick last time, the child seemed to want to grow up all the time. "Children have their own advantages, and adults have their own advantages. You are still a child now, so you should eat and play. You will grow up eventually. Be a happy child first, and then be a hardworking and brave adult when you grow up."
"Yeah! By the way, father, Master Anan said that he saw an eagle cub in the mountains recently, and he wants to catch it for me. Can you teach me how to make a cage?" Xiaoman said. Eagles are very ferocious and extremely difficult to tame. There is a process of training the eagle, and preparations must be made in advance.
Although he said he was teaching Xiaoman, in fact the little guy was just making a lot of trouble. With his "great help", the cage that could have been completed in half a day took a whole day.
