Prehistoric Widows Survival [Farming]
Chapter 97
"In the world I came to, there are speculations about different worlds. The theory of parallel worlds is a very popular one."
Lu Er took a branch and drew several parallel lines on the ground, "Suppose the middle one is the orc world, the upper one is Nata's original world, and the lower one is my previous world."
Jiao looked down at the three parallel lines, and the three cubs sitting next to him were sitting in a row, listening to what Mu's father said he still couldn't understand with their eyes wide open.
"Foreign races are eyeing the three hearts of life in this world, but each of the three hearts of life has the power to protect - like the one here, the altar tribe is protecting it, right?"
Jiao nodded: "Yes."
"Obviously the foreign race has so many strange abilities, but it's still a trick to snatch your heart of life. The main problem of you chasing and killing the foreign race these years is that they escape too fast, right?" Lu Er clicked on the line in the middle. A little bit, "So it can basically be considered that the strength of foreign races is not as good as yours?"
Jiao nodded again: "We think so too."
The troubles of the alien races are mainly due to their weirdness. In terms of the strength of frontal combat, as long as they are not given time to parasitize wild beasts and form a beast horde, it is not too difficult to defeat them.
"You have been hiding all these years, and the alien race can't find you, and you have to face the pursuit of the altar tribe. Their own reproductive ability is not enough, and it is difficult to replenish after losing a member. If there is not enough manpower, the greatest possibility What is it?"
Jiao raised his head and frowned: "Please help."
"Yes, they are very likely to ask for support from the world they came to." Lu Youzhi tapped the line representing the alien world, and then tapped the line representing his own world, "Although our world has not yet Reaching this level, but I feel that it is not that simple to cross the world, maybe there are one or two 'routes' that can bring back the aliens to the world where I am, and brought me here."
Jiao nodded thoughtfully: "That's why Nata thinks you are his kind?"
"Yes. The spiritual water ring can solve the divine punishment, and it may also have something to do with the alien race. After all, the divine punishment is a natural disaster caused by them, and there should be a corresponding solution."
Lu You didn't really believe what Nata said before, "Only by eating flesh and blood that contains the power of life" can one walk on the God's Punishment Wasteland.
Jiao was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked a question: "So... does it have any effect on you?"
Lu You was taken aback: "What's wrong?"
Jiao stood up abruptly, walked a few steps anxiously, pursed his lips, and suddenly squatted down again, holding Lu Wei's hand, his voice lowered a lot: "I mean...you...will you leave?"
——His Lu Er is so seriously thinking about the possibility of coming to this world, does he want to go back to his world?
——At that time, what should he and the three cubs do?
Thinking that he might never see Lu Wei again, Jiao felt a little panicked.
But if he asked him to stop Lu Er from returning to his home, he couldn't say anything.
During the days when he was wandering outside, he always missed his father, mother, and younger brother in the Shentan tribe; even after he settled down in the Redwood tribe, he never stopped missing his relatives.
Because Lu Er discovered the solution to God's punishment and alien race, he was able to go home; if Lu Er was homesick, how could he have the heart to stop Lu Er?
The more he thought about it, the more sad he felt, Jiao's initial courage slowly dissipated, and his hand holding Lu Er slowly loosened.
——If Lu You really wants to go back, let him go back.
Enduring the soreness in his heart, Jiao thought: He can raise the three cubs well in their common home, and later tell a few children how powerful their mother is, who saved the world from a catastrophe , leading all the orcs out of the primitive life of ruthless and drinking blood...
Just as his hands were slowly loosening, the hands of the smaller Asian beasts suddenly clenched him tightly behind their backs.
Jiao raised his head, and met Shang Lu You's eyes with a hint of a smile: "You are here, where should I go?"
Jiao was stunned for a while before he understood what Lu You meant, and blurted out: "Don't you want to go home?"
"My parents... Well, they are my father and my father, who died in an accident when I was a child." Lu Er put Jiao's big hand in the palm of his hand, and saw clearly the panic and loss that had not yet dissipated in the eyes of this powerful orc. My heart became softer, and I whispered, "Now, you and Xiaojiu are my closest people. With you here, I will not leave this world."
Looking at Jiao still looked stupid, Lu You added, "Besides, I can't go back even if I want to. I am not from the same world as these alien races."
At this time, Jiao finally came to his senses, stood up excitedly, hugged Lu Er and spun around in a circle: "You promised me not to leave? Really?"
"real."
"Great!"
Jiao Jiao's eyes sparkled with excitement, becoming more and more like two pieces of translucent emeralds.He leaned over to Lu You's face and kissed him hard, hugging him and wanting to go to bed.
Terrified, Lu Er patted him on the back: "The children are still there!"
"It's okay, I'll pull the curtain!"
"Didn't we just talk about business!"
"It's over!"
"You—uh..."
The three cubs didn't understand the discussion between their father and their father from the very beginning, they just joined in the fun and played with their father and their father.Seeing that my father and my father went to bed together again, and pulled the curtain tightly, they immediately went to crawl and play separately without any surprise.
……
Once again, Lu You, who had a sore back and back pain, secretly decided that he would not be able to give Jiao any more spiritual comfort in the future—this bastard couldn't help it after eating a little bit of sweetness, and he made himself "terribly miserable" in the morning, thinking about all the shame of last night The performance can't wait for complete amnesia.
Bijiao was very obedient when he was under the bed, but he was dishonest when he got on the bed, he promised well, he ignored everything when he was excited, and drove himself more and more crazy...
Shaking her head to dispel the feeling of being out of control and indulging, Lu You got off the bed blushing, and opened the curtain to see the pure and innocent eyes of the three cubs.
Lu Er: "..."
There is nothing more embarrassing than this.
As a result, Jiao was forced to sleep in a separate bed with Lu Er for a week.
Therefore, during the special training in the next few days, Jiao's whole body was surrounded by low air pressure, and his shots were a lot heavier. Even Dian suffered a few times, grinning in pain.
Not sure what's going on between Jiao and Lu Er, Dian went back after the special training and asked his younger brother, "Mu Guang, what happened to Jiao and Lu Er recently?"
Mu Guang was gesturing back and forth with the cut cotton cloth, and was taken aback when he heard his brother's question: "Ah? What's wrong with them?"
"This is the question I asked you." Dian was a little curious, "Didn't you ask you to pretend to be convinced by Lu Er, build a good relationship with him, and then slowly instill in him the idea of staying in the altar tribe? You don't go there often Looking for him?"
Mu Guang smiled awkwardly: "I've been busy recently..."
"What are you busy with?" Dian noticed the cotton cloth in Mu Guang's hand, looked at it carefully, and there was a hint of surprise on his face, "Make clothes for me?"
Mu Guang's eyes changed, he took a step back, and coughed: "It's not for you."
"It's so big that you can't wear it..." Dian's voice suddenly stopped, and his eyes narrowed slightly, "Do you have a favorite orc?"
Mu Guang coughed again, and said reservedly: "I don't really like him, I just think he's not bad."
Dian naturally knew his younger brother well, knowing that he had a clue in what he said, he was a little curious: "Which orc was tricked by you?"
"Bah, who lied!" Mu Guang retorted dissatisfiedly, "I'm also very popular, okay?"
"Tell me, which orc is so short-sighted."
Mu Guang glared at him, then snorted: "It's true."
"Who is it?" Dian recalled in confusion for a long time before he remembered, "Oh! That rhino that came from the Redwood Tribe with the green ears and horns?"
In fact, since he came to the Shentan tribe, his sense of presence has not been very high - the things he usually does are basically chores arranged by Lu Er and Jiao, and he rarely bears any major responsibilities.
The last time Mu Guang tried to get close to Lu Er, he was thrown to Shi by Lu Er.
After getting in touch with Shi, Mu Guang found that although Shi was not that strong, he was very stable and knew a lot.The most important thing is that Shi never regards him as a weak and weak existence that can only be a vassal of orcs, but communicates with him on an equal footing. Because he is not physically strong enough, I take extra care of him, and do as much farm work as I say.
This feeling of being respected and recognized by others is very wonderful, and it also made Muguang quickly develop a good impression of Shi.
Afterwards, Mu Guang inquired secretly, and knowing that he didn't have a partner, he mustered up the courage to take the initiative to attack, but he didn't expect Shi to be shocked, as if he didn't believe such a good thing would happen.
Recalling the cute appearance of really silly red face, Mu Guang couldn't help laughing again.
Seeing his younger brother's happy face, Dian couldn't help feeling a little sour: "I don't have a sub-beast yet, so you've found a beastman."
"Who told you to be busy outside every day, how can you have time to pursue Yashou."
"I'm not going to patrol, who will be responsible for the safety of the tribe?" Dian shook his head, ready to go back, but was stopped by Mu Guang again.
"Brother, I'm going to make a dress for Shi Shi, but I can't think of any suitable accessories. Do you have any good suggestions?"
Dian deliberately poured cold water on it: "Just hang a few leaves."
"go with!"
Dian pouted, took out a gadget from his pocket and threw it to Mu Guang: "This is for you."
Mu Guang took it over, and his hands were cold and hard. He saw that it was a round object with simple patterns engraved on it, and he was slightly puzzled, "What is this? A stone?"
"It was traded from other tribes. It is said that many people outside use this thing to measure the value of food. There are also many orcs and sub-beasts who hang it on their bodies as decorations." Dian pointed to the thing and recalled , "This thing seems to be called... an ear coin? I don't know what kind of stone it is, it's very hard."
When Mu Guang finished the clothes and gave them to Shi, Shi noticed the ear coins on the clothes and was very pleasantly surprised: "Where did this come from?"
Seeing that he seemed to like it very much, Mu Guang was slightly happy in his heart, and said reservedly: "My brother brought this from outside. Guess what it is?"
Really a little confused: "Isn't this an ear coin?"
Could it be that after leaving the Redwood Tribe for so long, Earcoin has evolved a new name?
Mu Guang was a little resentful: "How do you know this is an ear coin?"
"This is promoted by our tribe." Shibo pulled the copper coin and said happily, "I haven't seen it for a few months, and I still miss it... Where did you find it?"
The ear coin turned out to be something made by the Redwood Tribe?
Mu Guang was taken aback.Lu Er brought countless new things, whether it was rice, pottery, brick houses or the latest cotton cloth, they all brought earth-shaking changes to the life of the Shentan tribe.
Because after Lu Er came to Shentan tribe, he made a few big things soon, and put on the aura of mystery with almost no twists and turns, so most people in Shentan tribe felt that it was not surprising that Lu Er did anything.
It's just that these things are only things in one tribe, and these things from the Redwood Tribe have not been passed on to their ears before.
Now the ear coins have already circulated here?
And according to the meaning of the scriptures, most of the tribes outside are using this ear coin to trade things?
Although Mu Guang didn't know much about the big picture, he was still a little stunned: How famous is this Redwood tribe now?
……
What Dian and Mu Guang knew, the leader of the Shentan tribe would naturally not know.
He naturally looked farther than his subordinates. After thinking for a long time, he specially invited Lu Er over and asked about the ear coins.
Lu Er was very calm: "The copper coins were indeed created by our Redwood tribe, with the purpose of providing a reliable benchmark for the transactions of different tribes."
The leader frowned: "In this way, wouldn't the price of any food be determined by the Redwood Tribe?"
"No, we just set a preliminary price benchmark, and the specific price will be gradually improved during the circulation process." Lu You has not studied economics specifically, but has some common sense, "You are not a fool, Even if we stipulate that a piece of fruit is more expensive than a piece of meat, will the orcs listen?"
The market naturally has its own laws of operation.But now this primitive way of trading among the orc tribes, the economic system is fragile and at the same time extremely strong.
Because the currency itself is refined from copper ore of the same value, and copperware will serve as an important part of a civilization for a long time to come, relatively speaking, the depreciation of copper coins is not so easy.
As for things like banknotes, Lu Er doesn’t plan to do it—he’s not an economist, and the things he’s proposing now are just a little bit of creation and tentative crossing, to ensure that even if there are any bad effects, they can be controlled.
The future economic development should be left to the future orcs to decide for themselves.
Although the leader didn't know what was going on in Lu Yi's mind, he understood a little bit about the issues related to copper coins.He tapped on the table lightly, pondered for a moment, and asked, "The method of making this ear coin... can it be exchanged for our altar tribe? We will provide sufficient rewards."
He was keenly aware of the great significance of being able to create currency for the altar tribe.
It's just that the technology of making copper coins is completely in the hands of the Redwood Tribe, and he is not sure whether Lu Er is willing to hand it over.
——If it was a hostile tribe, or a small tribe, he would not be so worried.
When Lu You heard the leader talking about copper coins, he had expectations in his heart and knew what the leader meant. During the conversation just now, he had already thought about the advantages and disadvantages of imparting coinage and smelting technology to the Shentan tribe.
The disadvantage is naturally that the coinage monopoly of the Redwood Tribe will end, and the benefits of the Redwood Tribe from unified weights and measures will also be greatly reduced;
The advantages are not without.Now that the currency has just started to be implemented, most of the orcs are only happy with the convenience brought by the currency, and have not noticed the huge benefits in this regard.After the currency is fully circulated, if the only mahogany tribe that masters currency casting is not strong enough, one can imagine the result of being targeted by other tribes.
If the Altar Tribe is standing in front of them, and the Redwood Tribe develops slowly, it may be more stable and safe...
Lu Er thought for a moment, then nodded: "Yes, but I have an additional request."
The leader's eyes lit up: "What request?"
"Leaving aside the technology of minting coins, the technology of smelting must be strictly sealed up, and cannot be passed on to other tribes casually." Lu Er emphasized, "Especially smelting weapons."
The basis of coinage is smelting bronze. The biggest use of metal utensils in this era is obviously not currency, but tools and...weapons.
Lu You has confidence in the Redwood Tribe, and after getting to know them during this period of time, he also has initial trust in the Shentan Tribe.
He still can't trust other tribes.
The leader didn't expect Lu Er to agree so quickly, he was stunned for a moment, remembered the cold and hard material of the copper coin, and nodded cautiously: "Okay."
Metal utensils have a great influence on agriculture, construction and other fields.In the future, copper and iron will definitely be extended to all tribes.
The population of the Altar tribe, well-trained orc warriors played a huge advantage in finding copper mines.
In less than ten days, the Shentan tribe found two copper mines and brought back some ore samples for Lu Wei to confirm.
At the same time, copper smelting kilns in the tribe were also quickly built.
Not long after, the first batch of copper coins made by the Shentan tribe came out of the oven.
When Lu Er and the leader accepted the copper coins, Dian was still a little confused: "If ear coins for food exchange can be made so easily, wouldn't we be picking them up for nothing?"
Lu Er glanced at him, then turned to look at the leader: "Actually, the biggest use of these coppers is not to mint coins."
When minting copper coins, Lu Er ordered the orcs to smelt several tools at the same time.He picked up a hoe, hit the wooden stick prepared in advance, and swung the hoe to hoe the ground hard, so that the orcs could see the efficiency of metal tools.
This is still a rough embryo that has not been sharpened.
As for the other forged knives and scissors, Lu Er also tried them one by one, and then gave those orcs some experience.
The orcs had tried metal tools, and they didn't want to use heavy and blunt stone tools anymore.
Dian held a bronze gun and couldn't put it down, and asked in surprise, "Do the Redwood tribe usually use these things?"
Lu You smiled without saying a word.
Although when he left the Redwood Tribe, the popularity of copperware was not very high, but in the past half a year, especially after a currency transaction, the popularity rate of metal tools in the Redwood Tribe is already very high.
The Shentan tribe has a large number of people, and correspondingly needs a large number of copper mines. It may take a long time to increase the penetration rate.
……
When the bronze was smelted, Lu Wei didn't have to worry about it later. When he returned to the tent, he almost bumped into the corner that was in a hurry to go out.
"What's the matter, in such a hurry?"
Seeing Lu Wei, Jiao raised the baby in his arms: "Xiao An has changed back to human form."
Within a few months after the boss turned into a little lion, he turned back into a human form because he wanted to play with the dough, which made Lu Wei lose the little lion that he could knead at will. Fortunately, it didn't take long for little Lu An to become a little The white deer gave Lu You another fluff that could be hugged in his arms at any time.
Now little Lu An has also turned into a human form...
Lu You took the fat baby who was peacefully gnawing on his fingers, sighed softly, and kissed his chubby little face: "Xiao An, why don't you let Father Mu touch it for a while?"
The little guy's face was soft, white and tender, like a jelly, and Lu Er couldn't help but want to kiss him again after one kiss.
Jiao Jiao was secretly happy because Lu Er would not hug the little white deer every day from now on, but seeing Lu Er kissing the little guy so vigorously now, he was a little upset: "Lu Er, don't pamper him too much, Xiao An is an orc."
Lu You turned to look at him and smiled: "Xiao An is still young."
"Not too young, already one year old."
Lu You froze for a moment, then remembered that this season seems to have passed the time when Xiao An and the others were born last year.
Because of the change of location and the fact that the calendar can only be memorized in my heart, Lu Er often forgets the specific months and days.
In addition, he had too many things to do after arriving in the Shentan tribe, and he completely forgot the exact time when the cubs were born.
In this way, wouldn't he miss the first birthday of the three cubs?
Lu Er felt a little guilty at once, and kissed Xiao An a few more times, then turned her head and asked diagonally, "Shall we celebrate the children's belated birthday?"
Jiao froze for a moment: "What's your birthday?"
This concept has never existed among orcs.
"Birthday is the day when a person is born. Every year after that, the family members gather together to celebrate the increase of one year in age, and wish the birthday person to be healthier, happier and grow up in the coming year." Lu Ermo Touching Xiaoan's little head, he said with a smile.
Hearing this, Jiao's heart was a little turbulent. He looked at Xiao An's ignorant eyes, and then at the gentleness on Lu You's face. There was also a hint of tenderness in his eyes: "Okay, let's celebrate them."
Lu You heard a hint of untraceable envy from Jiao's voice, and was taken aback for a moment, then his face returned to what it was just now.
——Speaking of which, Kaku probably never experienced the feeling of a birthday?
Lu Er took a branch and drew several parallel lines on the ground, "Suppose the middle one is the orc world, the upper one is Nata's original world, and the lower one is my previous world."
Jiao looked down at the three parallel lines, and the three cubs sitting next to him were sitting in a row, listening to what Mu's father said he still couldn't understand with their eyes wide open.
"Foreign races are eyeing the three hearts of life in this world, but each of the three hearts of life has the power to protect - like the one here, the altar tribe is protecting it, right?"
Jiao nodded: "Yes."
"Obviously the foreign race has so many strange abilities, but it's still a trick to snatch your heart of life. The main problem of you chasing and killing the foreign race these years is that they escape too fast, right?" Lu Er clicked on the line in the middle. A little bit, "So it can basically be considered that the strength of foreign races is not as good as yours?"
Jiao nodded again: "We think so too."
The troubles of the alien races are mainly due to their weirdness. In terms of the strength of frontal combat, as long as they are not given time to parasitize wild beasts and form a beast horde, it is not too difficult to defeat them.
"You have been hiding all these years, and the alien race can't find you, and you have to face the pursuit of the altar tribe. Their own reproductive ability is not enough, and it is difficult to replenish after losing a member. If there is not enough manpower, the greatest possibility What is it?"
Jiao raised his head and frowned: "Please help."
"Yes, they are very likely to ask for support from the world they came to." Lu Youzhi tapped the line representing the alien world, and then tapped the line representing his own world, "Although our world has not yet Reaching this level, but I feel that it is not that simple to cross the world, maybe there are one or two 'routes' that can bring back the aliens to the world where I am, and brought me here."
Jiao nodded thoughtfully: "That's why Nata thinks you are his kind?"
"Yes. The spiritual water ring can solve the divine punishment, and it may also have something to do with the alien race. After all, the divine punishment is a natural disaster caused by them, and there should be a corresponding solution."
Lu You didn't really believe what Nata said before, "Only by eating flesh and blood that contains the power of life" can one walk on the God's Punishment Wasteland.
Jiao was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked a question: "So... does it have any effect on you?"
Lu You was taken aback: "What's wrong?"
Jiao stood up abruptly, walked a few steps anxiously, pursed his lips, and suddenly squatted down again, holding Lu Wei's hand, his voice lowered a lot: "I mean...you...will you leave?"
——His Lu Er is so seriously thinking about the possibility of coming to this world, does he want to go back to his world?
——At that time, what should he and the three cubs do?
Thinking that he might never see Lu Wei again, Jiao felt a little panicked.
But if he asked him to stop Lu Er from returning to his home, he couldn't say anything.
During the days when he was wandering outside, he always missed his father, mother, and younger brother in the Shentan tribe; even after he settled down in the Redwood tribe, he never stopped missing his relatives.
Because Lu Er discovered the solution to God's punishment and alien race, he was able to go home; if Lu Er was homesick, how could he have the heart to stop Lu Er?

Terrified, Lu Er patted him on the back: "The children are still there!"
"It's okay, I'll pull the curtain!"
"Didn't we just talk about business!"
"It's over!"
"You—uh..."
The three cubs didn't understand the discussion between their father and their father from the very beginning, they just joined in the fun and played with their father and their father.Seeing that my father and my father went to bed together again, and pulled the curtain tightly, they immediately went to crawl and play separately without any surprise.

"It's so big that you can't wear it..." Dian's voice suddenly stopped, and his eyes narrowed slightly, "Do you have a favorite orc?"

And according to the meaning of the scriptures, most of the tribes outside are using this ear coin to trade things?
Although Mu Guang didn't know much about the big picture, he was still a little stunned: How famous is this Redwood tribe now?
……
What Dian and Mu Guang knew, the leader of the Shentan tribe would naturally not know.
He naturally looked farther than his subordinates. After thinking for a long time, he specially invited Lu Er over and asked about the ear coins.
Lu Er was very calm: "The copper coins were indeed created by our Redwood tribe, with the purpose of providing a reliable benchmark for the transactions of different tribes."
The leader frowned: "In this way, wouldn't the price of any food be determined by the Redwood Tribe?"
"No, we just set a preliminary price benchmark, and the specific price will be gradually improved during the circulation process." Lu You has not studied economics specifically, but has some common sense, "You are not a fool, Even if we stipulate that a piece of fruit is more expensive than a piece of meat, will the orcs listen?"
The market naturally has its own laws of operation.But now this primitive way of trading among the orc tribes, the economic system is fragile and at the same time extremely strong.
Because the currency itself is refined from copper ore of the same value, and copperware will serve as an important part of a civilization for a long time to come, relatively speaking, the depreciation of copper coins is not so easy.
As for things like banknotes, Lu Er doesn’t plan to do it—he’s not an economist, and the things he’s proposing now are just a little bit of creation and tentative crossing, to ensure that even if there are any bad effects, they can be controlled.
The future economic development should be left to the future orcs to decide for themselves.
Although the leader didn't know what was going on in Lu Yi's mind, he understood a little bit about the issues related to copper coins.He tapped on the table lightly, pondered for a moment, and asked, "The method of making this ear coin... can it be exchanged for our altar tribe? We will provide sufficient rewards."
He was keenly aware of the great significance of being able to create currency for the altar tribe.
It's just that the technology of making copper coins is completely in the hands of the Redwood Tribe, and he is not sure whether Lu Er is willing to hand it over.
——If it was a hostile tribe, or a small tribe, he would not be so worried.
When Lu You heard the leader talking about copper coins, he had expectations in his heart and knew what the leader meant. During the conversation just now, he had already thought about the advantages and disadvantages of imparting coinage and smelting technology to the Shentan tribe.
The disadvantage is naturally that the coinage monopoly of the Redwood Tribe will end, and the benefits of the Redwood Tribe from unified weights and measures will also be greatly reduced;
The advantages are not without.Now that the currency has just started to be implemented, most of the orcs are only happy with the convenience brought by the currency, and have not noticed the huge benefits in this regard.After the currency is fully circulated, if the only mahogany tribe that masters currency casting is not strong enough, one can imagine the result of being targeted by other tribes.
If the Altar Tribe is standing in front of them, and the Redwood Tribe develops slowly, it may be more stable and safe...
Lu Er thought for a moment, then nodded: "Yes, but I have an additional request."
The leader's eyes lit up: "What request?"
"Leaving aside the technology of minting coins, the technology of smelting must be strictly sealed up, and cannot be passed on to other tribes casually." Lu Er emphasized, "Especially smelting weapons."
The basis of coinage is smelting bronze. The biggest use of metal utensils in this era is obviously not currency, but tools and...weapons.
Lu You has confidence in the Redwood Tribe, and after getting to know them during this period of time, he also has initial trust in the Shentan Tribe.
He still can't trust other tribes.
The leader didn't expect Lu Er to agree so quickly, he was stunned for a moment, remembered the cold and hard material of the copper coin, and nodded cautiously: "Okay."
Metal utensils have a great influence on agriculture, construction and other fields.In the future, copper and iron will definitely be extended to all tribes.
The population of the Altar tribe, well-trained orc warriors played a huge advantage in finding copper mines.
In less than ten days, the Shentan tribe found two copper mines and brought back some ore samples for Lu Wei to confirm.
At the same time, copper smelting kilns in the tribe were also quickly built.
Not long after, the first batch of copper coins made by the Shentan tribe came out of the oven.
When Lu Er and the leader accepted the copper coins, Dian was still a little confused: "If ear coins for food exchange can be made so easily, wouldn't we be picking them up for nothing?"
Lu Er glanced at him, then turned to look at the leader: "Actually, the biggest use of these coppers is not to mint coins."
When minting copper coins, Lu Er ordered the orcs to smelt several tools at the same time.He picked up a hoe, hit the wooden stick prepared in advance, and swung the hoe to hoe the ground hard, so that the orcs could see the efficiency of metal tools.
This is still a rough embryo that has not been sharpened.
As for the other forged knives and scissors, Lu Er also tried them one by one, and then gave those orcs some experience.
The orcs had tried metal tools, and they didn't want to use heavy and blunt stone tools anymore.
Dian held a bronze gun and couldn't put it down, and asked in surprise, "Do the Redwood tribe usually use these things?"
Lu You smiled without saying a word.
Although when he left the Redwood Tribe, the popularity of copperware was not very high, but in the past half a year, especially after a currency transaction, the popularity rate of metal tools in the Redwood Tribe is already very high.
The Shentan tribe has a large number of people, and correspondingly needs a large number of copper mines. It may take a long time to increase the penetration rate.
……
When the bronze was smelted, Lu Wei didn't have to worry about it later. When he returned to the tent, he almost bumped into the corner that was in a hurry to go out.
"What's the matter, in such a hurry?"
Seeing Lu Wei, Jiao raised the baby in his arms: "Xiao An has changed back to human form."
Within a few months after the boss turned into a little lion, he turned back into a human form because he wanted to play with the dough, which made Lu Wei lose the little lion that he could knead at will. Fortunately, it didn't take long for little Lu An to become a little The white deer gave Lu You another fluff that could be hugged in his arms at any time.
Now little Lu An has also turned into a human form...
Lu You took the fat baby who was peacefully gnawing on his fingers, sighed softly, and kissed his chubby little face: "Xiao An, why don't you let Father Mu touch it for a while?"
The little guy's face was soft, white and tender, like a jelly, and Lu Er couldn't help but want to kiss him again after one kiss.
Jiao Jiao was secretly happy because Lu Er would not hug the little white deer every day from now on, but seeing Lu Er kissing the little guy so vigorously now, he was a little upset: "Lu Er, don't pamper him too much, Xiao An is an orc."
Lu You turned to look at him and smiled: "Xiao An is still young."
"Not too young, already one year old."
Lu You froze for a moment, then remembered that this season seems to have passed the time when Xiao An and the others were born last year.
Because of the change of location and the fact that the calendar can only be memorized in my heart, Lu Er often forgets the specific months and days.
In addition, he had too many things to do after arriving in the Shentan tribe, and he completely forgot the exact time when the cubs were born.
In this way, wouldn't he miss the first birthday of the three cubs?
Lu Er felt a little guilty at once, and kissed Xiao An a few more times, then turned her head and asked diagonally, "Shall we celebrate the children's belated birthday?"
Jiao froze for a moment: "What's your birthday?"
This concept has never existed among orcs.
"Birthday is the day when a person is born. Every year after that, the family members gather together to celebrate the increase of one year in age, and wish the birthday person to be healthier, happier and grow up in the coming year." Lu Ermo Touching Xiaoan's little head, he said with a smile.
Hearing this, Jiao's heart was a little turbulent. He looked at Xiao An's ignorant eyes, and then at the gentleness on Lu You's face. There was also a hint of tenderness in his eyes: "Okay, let's celebrate them."
Lu You heard a hint of untraceable envy from Jiao's voice, and was taken aback for a moment, then his face returned to what it was just now.
——Speaking of which, Kaku probably never experienced the feeling of a birthday?
