Chapter 291
Because of the flamingoes guiding the route in the sky, the Mang tribe's boat sailed smoothly all the way to the vicinity of the elephant tribe, then entered the small river from the big river, and after some twists and turns, it arrived near the bamboo rat tribe.

"People from the Mang tribe are here!"

Ever since they got the promise from Chenbei, the Bamboo Rat Tribe sent people to observe the small river every day. After seven or eight days, they finally waited for the boat from the Mang Tribe.

The reason why it is so certain that it is the Mang tribe is because the totem pattern of the Mang tribe is painted on the sail, which is so large that it can be seen from a long distance.

For a moment, everyone in the bamboo rat tribe was excited, from the leader and the witch to the ordinary people below.

In their view, the Mang tribe sent them salt.

Ju Ya immediately ordered: "Quickly, send someone to dig out the coal, make sure to dig a little more, and bring it here!"

"Yes!"

The people of the Bamboo Rat Tribe seemed to be celebrating the New Year. They were all in high spirits, carrying bamboo baskets, tools, and big bamboo rats, and ran towards Meishan.

Not long after, the boats of the Mang tribe docked. There were a total of twelve small sailboats. They arrived here because they were going upstream, half relying on sails and half relying on oars.

Fortunately, it was an empty boat. If it was filled with coal and went upstream, I am afraid that the warriors of the Mang tribe would often have to be trackers.

As for the big ships, they stay in the wide waters, not too far from here.

"This is the bamboo rat tribe?"

Bibo didn't stay on the big boat, she followed Chen Bei, and came to the foot of Zhushan Mountain together, now she needs to show her abilities in front of Chen Bei more, to show her sense of presence.

Bibo looked at the bamboo mountain curiously, and also observed the members of the bamboo rat tribe who were rushing down the mountain, and found that they all had one characteristic, that is, their front teeth were particularly large.

In her heart, she doesn't think much of this small tribe, and thinks they are particularly ugly, but she won't say it, or even show it.

This is almost a kind of talent, Bibo's emotional intelligence is much higher than that of the straight-forward tribal people of the big tribes.

"Hahaha, Chief Chen, I have been waiting for you for a long time, and you are finally here!"

The giant tooth laughed while walking, and the two front teeth became more obvious. This is the way of the bamboo rat tribe to express their enthusiasm.

Chen Bei also responded with a smile: "It took a lot of time on the road, but we finally arrived."

"It's good when we arrive. I've already arranged for people to dig coal. Don't worry, Chief Chen, you must fill this 'boat' of yours!"

Ju Fang took the time to look at those boats. These weird looking things can transport the charcoal back to the Mang tribe?He was actually a little skeptical.

However, as long as the Mang tribe brought the salt, they didn't care if the charcoal was handed over to the Mang tribe.

Chen Bei took Bibo, Lie, and some warriors from the Mang tribe up the mountain.

Naturally, the Bamboo Rat Tribe warmly entertained them. While eating, drinking and chatting, they waited for the people from the Bamboo Rat Tribe to bring coal and fill up the sailboat.

Bibo is very smart, she flattered Juya a few words without a trace, and when Juya was happy, she gave away the whole truth about the bamboo rat tribe without knowing it.

Because of this, Bibo learned about the Bamboo Rat Tribe, including their population, coal usage, coal reserves, and even how many women Juya has.

Chen Bei didn't care about this at all, he just watched with a smile on his face. He didn't care about Bibo's performance. In fact, he hoped that every member of the Mang tribe could play their role to the maximum.

Bibo is no exception.

The efficiency of the Bamboo Rat Tribe was really fast. It only took half a day to fill up all twelve small sailboats.

Bibo personally led people to escort the ship, transported all the coal to the big ship, and loaded the coal on the big ship.

Afterwards, the small sailboat returned to the foot of Zhushan again, and after several times, the big boat was finally filled.

This process took three days.

The Mang tribe got dozens of tons of coal, while the Bamboo Rat tribe got dozens of catties of salt, which made the people of the Bamboo Rat tribe laugh from ear to ear.

In three days, in just three days, he had earned dozens of catties of salt. Such a good deed was like animal meat falling from the sky, which made people feel unreal.

Before parting, Chenbei sent a few animal skin clothes from the Mang tribe to the Bamboo Rat Tribe, which made the Bamboo Rat Tribe even more happy, so he just found a few catties of bamboo worms and gave them to Chenbei Road to eat.

"Chief Chen, we must come again next year!"

As the boat sailed, Chen Bei also rode a flamingo into the sky, and the giant teeth shouted loudly on the ground while waving enthusiastically.

"Definitely come next year!"

Chen Bei rode the flamingo and flew around twice, then flew in the direction of the big ship.

Twelve sailboats sailed down the river, joined the big ship, and set off on their way home together.

On the way back, the speed was much slower than when we came back because of the full load. It took almost twelve days before we finally returned to the Mang tribe.

This back and forth is almost a month.

The weather is getting colder, and this year we will not go to the Bamboo Rat Tribe to transport coal.

"Drop anchor!"

The big boat sailed to the side of the Lobster River, outside the city wall, the anchor was dropped, and all the small sailboats also docked.

"Lie, find someone to move all the coal to the tribe."

"Yes!"

Lie immediately went to the tribe, found a large group of strong and strong warriors, brought rattan baskets, two-wheeled vehicles and other tools, and began to unload the coal on the ship.

Chen Bei watched the clansmen laboriously carrying coal back and forth, and he said thoughtfully: "If we can drive the boat directly into the tribe, it will save a lot of effort."

Bibo next to him said: "It's not easy, just dig a river to lead to the tribe, it's fine."

Chen Bei nodded and said, "We have to dig a river, not only to lead into the tribe, but also to go around the city wall to form a moat."

"In this way, it will not only meet the needs of future freight transportation, but also solve the problem of water for everyone in the tribe."

The idea of ​​digging a moat has been around since the city walls were built.

However, because the construction of the city wall consumed too much manpower and material resources, and this year, there were successive disasters, and the food production was greatly reduced. It is impossible to build the city wall and dig the moat at the same time.

If you insist on doing it, if you encounter other tribes attacking at that time, there may be a food crisis, which will affect the whole body.

Chen Bei knows very well that it is never a good thing to overdraw manpower and material resources, and it is safer to leave a little room.

"The autumn harvest is over now. Apart from the warriors going hunting and fishing, there are still many ordinary clansmen who are idle, so they can dig the moat."

While watching everyone carrying coal, Chen Bei decided on this matter in his heart.

There are too many benefits of digging a moat. First, it is convenient for goods to enter and exit, and then it solves the water problem after the tribe’s population grows, and finally it can prevent foreign enemies from invading.

It doesn't matter if there are no conditions, when conditions permit, the moat must be dug, and it must be done as soon as possible!
When it was getting dark, all the coal was finally moved back to the Mang tribe, and the next step was how to make good use of the coal.
