Chapter 62 No Money and No Food
"But let's not talk about it yet, Cherna, is it going to snow heavily again recently?"
Li Ke stood up after taking a rest, stretched out his hand to catch a slowly falling snowflake, and then crushed it in his own hands.
"It should be... but it's not necessarily true. The recent weather changes are very strange. It's different from the past. The priests said it's because of the battle between the gods."
Cherna looked at the fluttering snowflakes in the sky and the green wheat field that was already covered with wheat ears, with a worried look on her face. After all, this snow did not come at the right time. Li Ke was worried about this place.
The research has just begun and has to be interrupted by such extreme weather, so it can only be continued in a warm house. Even someone like her who doesn't know much about magic knows that this is not a good thing for Li Ke.
information.
"God... It's a pity that the cold air of Zhenbing itself is enough to freeze anything, and it can't retain the temperature at all... and it's quite precious. Otherwise, this kind of thing would be much better used as a greenhouse than as a weapon.
Already."
Li Ke didn't know much about how Zhen Bing was made, but he still regretted how precious Zhen Bing was. After all, if he could make Zhen Bing and knew how to make Zhen Bing, Zhen Bing wouldn't have this terrible coldness.
If so, then many problems will no longer be problems.
He pulled out a piece of wheat, then looked at the falling snowflakes, and decided to start the next stage of the experiment and get more food for Ashe's tribe. Then, when the road was easier to walk in spring, the Demacians and
When the Piltover people are less wary of the Freljord people, they can start trading again. Get some plastic sheets and the like back. After all, in a city of science and technology, it is impossible not to point out plastic technology. Even without Li
The plastic in Ke's memory should have something similar.
And if it really doesn't work, it's the same as throwing it out with money. Coins may not be as useful as food in the Freljord, but they are no longer useful outside.
At that time, we will build some greenhouses, buy some fertilizers and pesticides, and basically the infrastructure construction will start...
"It's just money..."
Li Ke had another headache. Although Ashe's tribe was rich and promoted trade and circulation, it did not accumulate wealth as fast as Sejuani's tribe who relied on plunder to strengthen her tribe. In Sejuani's tribe,
A bag of gold coins is something that is easy to get and is not as important as the two cities. But in Ashe's tribe, a bag of gold coins is much more important than food.
Let’s not mention the differences caused by the different philosophies between the two, because as far as Li Ke knows the nature of capitalists, the two tribes of Ashe and Sejuani combined may not be enough to buy what he needs. Let’s not say anything else.
Yes, just for the equipment of the cement plant, I'm afraid Ai Xi would have to drain the entire tribe's wealth to complete it.
Then just rely on Li Ke's ability to eat rice without salt and meat.
"Tall buildings rising from the ground, tall buildings rising from the ground..."
Li Ke unconsciously crushed the wheat ears in his hand, and after looking at him for a while, Cherna asked Li Ke in a low voice.
"Do you want to trade food for money?"
Cherna spoke to Li Ke's heart. He indeed wanted to use food in exchange for money. But whether it was making wine and selling it for money, using food to win over other tribes, or using food to exchange for those who were unwilling to join.
The tribe's gold coins all require a large amount of food. It can be said that as long as there is a large amount of food, no problem will be solved in a short period of time.
"Yes, it's a pity that my magic is not mature enough... As you can see, I have to touch the seeds to inject life force into them. The number of seeds I can sow in a day is limited, and it is a bit reluctant to meet the current planning needs."
This is an unsolvable problem. Although the herds sent by Ashe can be used to restore ordinary vitality, manpower is limited after all. He left other chores to the people of the Winterspring clan, who did not have a perfect system.
Without tools, four people can help him grow up to 20 acres of land in a whole day, and each acre of land can produce about 300 kilograms of grain.
This seems to be a lot, and there are hundreds of people who can help Li Ke farm.
But this is not the case. Li Ke's farming method does great harm to the land, so after a harvest, these people must level the land and replace the mud dug out during road construction with the mud here.
Once replaced, the straw was burned on the spot, and their ashes, as well as the collected excrement ordered by Li Ke, were mixed with water and mixed with the soil in the field. So they only plowed once a day. And as a price,
Even if the people here are naturally strong and resistant to labor, some will get injured and exhausted from the cold and exercise.
After all, although he, Li Ke, is a superman, the people under him are not. Not to mention that these people of the Dongquan clan who are prisoners of war do not have much salt when eating.
There is nothing Li Ke can do about this, because Ai Xi's tribe is short of salt.
Moreover, they had to use some of their manpower to build roads. In fact, they had no dead or disabled people, all because they had enough food and Li Ke would replenish the vitality of the old and weak people, and all the children under the age of sixteen were included.
The reason why they were sent to the school that Ai Xi had opened. If they followed the previous rules here, not only would they not have enough to eat, they would also have to find a way to provide food to Ai Xi's tribe.
"Well... maybe you can try using the staff?"
Cherna expressed her opinion with some uncertainty. After all, Li Ke once showed the miracle of making this large plain full of flowers and turning them into wheat. She often saw the soldiers taking
With the wheat straw left that day, she prayed to Li Ke in private, so that they and their children could have enough to eat every day and be surrounded by flowers and warmth. So she didn't think that the priests and magicians were using it to increase their power.
What effect can his own magic and the staff that amplify the power of his own magic have on Li Ke?
After all, the two exist in two dimensions. She just wanted Li Ke to have something to kill time and not be so distressed.
"Wand?"
Li Ke was stunned for a moment. He instantly remembered the blind priest. The staff in his hand was more like a spear or an armor-breaking hammer than a staff.
The body of the long staff is a kind of wood, but its two heads are covered with iron and have some sharp crystals, so Li Ke really recognized it as a spear at first, if the other party hadn't used that thing
After casting a spell, he probably wouldn't even recognize it as a staff. After all, the staff in Noxus, although the tip of the staff is also an armor-piercing cone, is a typical staff in ACG, and he was the same one that day.
