Tomorrow's Ark is too real

Chapter 952

In the morning, the sun rose high, scorching the earth with scorching sun.

Far from the coastline, walking on the mountain road to the town, Xia Feng and Maruyama chatted non-stop.

"Maruyama, have you heard of tractors?"

"Mop what? I only know the mop."

"It is a mechanical agricultural tool that can be used for farming, harvesting, or pulling some heavy things."

Maruyama obviously has never heard of tractors, but as a descendant of a master builder, he has an excellent understanding of tools, and he can probably understand the type of things Xia Feng said.

"I've never seen that kind of thing, but I've heard that the large fishing boats of the Nishinomiya family have mechanical net pulling equipment, and tons of fishing nets can be pulled up effortlessly, which is stronger than the pulling force of a cow."

"Oh, machines, of course."

"It's amazing."

"That's not very powerful. If it is driven by Origin Stone, let alone a fishing net weighing tons, even a huge city can move on land."

Maruyama smiled awkwardly but politely, that expression seemed to say, "Keep blowing, I'll listen."

People in Dongguo know about natural disasters and the existence of ore disease, but obviously they don't know the true power of origin stones.

Of course, there is nothing strange about this, let alone ridicule them.

If there hadn't been the shepherd who first discovered the mystery of Originium, I'm afraid that today's world's technological powers are still on the road of exploration, and the explosively rising Originium technology system will also be set back for many years.

Xia Feng believes that as countries around the world gradually resume shipping interactions, it will take a few years for Dongguo's technological level to be completely raised.

But the price is that the tripartite confrontation will inevitably collapse.

With the effective resolution of transportation, communication, technology, energy and other issues, no force will give up power due to lack of ability. The small Dongguo must be decided by a family.

Along the way, Xia Feng and Maruyama talked nonsense, and the relationship between the two became very familiar.

Unlike the older generation in Nanye Village, Maruyama is a young man with relatively "vanguard" thinking, so he can understand most of the things that Xia Feng said that he has never heard of in his own way.

Gradually, he also discovered that the mobile city-state mentioned by Xia Feng seemed to be true.

"Fuutarou, are there really tall buildings with dozens of floors in Victoria?"

"Of course there is, hey, don't call me Fuutarou, this is Uncle Minano's yelling, my name is Xia Feng, Huo Yu Xia Feng."

"Oh."

Maruyama pondered for a while, and the topic suddenly became strange.

"By the way Xia Feng, are you married?"

"No."

"The girl you live with?"

Xia Feng took out the kettle and took a sip.

"Oh, that's my younger sister, her name is Fire Feather Bagpipe."

Hearing that Xia Feng was not married, Maruyama seemed to heave a sigh of relief, and then he said solemnly.

"Xia Feng, I think you are a very nice person, with a good temper, good looks, and knowledgeable. My sister is about to marry this year. Do you want to think about it?"

"puff!"

Xia Feng wiped his mouth.

"Hey, do you people in Nanye Village like being matchmakers so much?"

Maruyama didn't mean to be joking, but was very serious.

"It's not a matchmaker. The person I'm talking about is my own sister. She is very beautiful. Apart from her straightforward temper, she should be a good match for you."

"Well, I don't plan to get married yet."

"Oh, it's okay. I'm not forcing the marriage, but she's arguing all day about wanting to get married, and she doesn't like the men in the surrounding villages. Otherwise, why don't you guys try to get in touch first?"

Xia Feng said decisively.

"Forget it, I'm very self-aware, so don't waste your sister's time, it's impossible."

Instead, Maruyama was making a mess.

"This person can't just rely on his own imagination. If you think you are bad, maybe your shortcomings are all advantages in the eyes of others."

"Maruyama, it's really inappropriate."

"How do you know it's not suitable if you haven't met?"

"Farewell, I like quietness."

"That's good. At that time, the two of you can go to the secluded beach for a stroll, chat, and watch the sunrise and sunset. If it's really not suitable, at worst, you can also be ordinary friends. You say yes."

At this moment, Xia Feng felt that Maruyama's ancestor was not a carpenter, but a salesman.

Facing Maruyama's enthusiastic promotion of his own sister, he was speechless to refute.

"Hey, let's talk about it later."

"Okay, then it's settled."

"???"

This was the first time in Xia Feng's life that he was forced to go on a blind date. How should I put it, although it was embarrassing, it felt quite fresh.

That's right, male colleges should marry, female colleges should marry, this is the life of ordinary people.

Of course, it is impossible for him to marry a girl from Nanye Village. If friends from far away in Victoria visit him next time and find a bunch of dolls running all over the ground, they will probably be laughed out of their teeth.

After walking the mountain road for a morning, this magical town finally arrived.

This is the only town around the southern coast of Xichuan. To be serious, it is called a trade hub. The name of the town is Nanwan Town.

A few decades ago, Nanwan Town was not a town, but Nanwan Village, with a population similar to that of Nanye Village, with only a few dozen households.

With the development of time, the villagers in the surrounding villages have gradually pursued the quality of life, such as the diversity of food, the balance of nutrition, including clothing, pendants, agricultural tools, production materials and so on.

When there is demand, there is naturally a need for interaction. Exchange what you have for what you don’t have. Once you come and go, trade is born.

In terms of geographical location, Nanwan Village happens to belong to the center of the entire south coast of Xichuan, close to the villages by the sea, and not far from the villages in the deep mountains.

The most important thing is that the horse-drawn carriage in the interior of Xichuan can barely reach here, the world focuses on you.

In this way, due to the huge flow of people, Nanwan Village became Nanwan Town, and even subtly formed a commercial street. Of course, the so-called commercial street is similar to a night market.

Here, you can not only see the special products of all the villages on the south coast, but also buy "high-end" products from the inland, such as Dongzhou's unique folk snack apple candy.

Although the combined population of the dozen or so villages along the south coast is not as large as that of a large town in the interior, as long as there is a market, there will be merchants, even if the market is very small and the profits are very low.

In order to live, there are always people who will try.

After entering the town, looking at the dilapidated commercial street, Xia Feng was a little disappointed.

How should I put it, if it is placed in Victoria, with the scale of this town, it is called a village.

But he didn't come to buy a house, but to buy raw materials for building a house. It doesn't matter whether a cat is black or white, as long as it can catch mice, it is a good cat. As long as he can get what he needs here, it doesn't matter how simple it is.

Along the way, they drank all the water. Under the leadership of Maruyama, they first went to the well in the town to fill water.

The folk customs on the south coast of Xichuan are simple and honest, but as the saying goes, those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black. Under the interference of inland merchants, the people here have also become more interested in interests.

When I came to the well, the two large water tanks had already been filled with well water.

Just as Xia Feng was about to start filling with the kettle, a shirtless man next to him stopped him.

"Hey, I haven't seen you before. You're not from the town."

Xia Feng replied honestly.

"No."

"No? You have to pay for fetching water."

"Oh, how much?"

"Normal 2 copper, cold 5 copper."

"What is ordinary and what is cold?"

The man who guards the well has a foxtail in his mouth.

"The ones in the water tank are ordinary, and the ones fresh from the deep well are cold."

"How much cold can 5 copper hit?"

"Whatever, how much can you pack?"

"But all I want is a kettle."

"That's also 5 copper. You can drink it first and then fill it with water."

"."

Xia Feng took out 5 copper coins.

"Give."

After putting the money in his pocket, the man guarding the well raised his legs, and nuzzled the bucket tied with a rope by the well with his mouth.

"Okay, you can fight yourself."

"I"
