When Ye Qiong and Tang Ying returned to the bonfire party, many of the clansmen were already a little bit drunk. After today, they might have to wait for a long time before they can drink good wine again.

Within the tribe, alcohol is managed centrally, and it is only given to the tribe when the tribe celebrates. Even if the tribe leader wants to drink two glasses on weekdays, he does not have this privilege.

Today is a very memorable day, enough wine and meat!

The warriors in the tribe still maintain a high degree of self-discipline and vigilance. In the middle of the night, they go back to rest. The tribesmen can play freely, but the warriors who guard the tribe must maintain their fighting power at all times. After all, the beast tide It can strike at any time.

Although they solved a beast horde today, there are countless beast hordes on Snow Star, even bigger than today...

Even the tide of beasts led by lord-level monsters.

Therefore, soldiers must be vigilant at all times, and have a high degree of self-discipline all year round, so that each of them has developed good habits.

After Ye Qiong greeted Ye Tianlong, he left a small space for the caravan in the northwest of the tribe.

As for whether Tang Ying's caravan can stay in the tribe, we still have to wait for the elders of the tribe to discuss it tomorrow.

After all, the form still has to go...

The boss of the caravan is called Yang Jianxin, a middle-aged man in his forties, with short hair, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a deep scar on his neck, giving him a very calm feeling.

After Tang Ying returned to the caravan, she came to find Yang Jianxin and expressed Ye Qiong's intentions.

"Is what you said true?" Yang Jianxin asked in disbelief. After all, he has lived so long and organized a caravan for seventeen years.

In the past seventeen years, the caravan has contacted many tribes, but no tribe is willing to accept them.

It's not that the world is cold, it's that she is really powerless.

"Well, the person who rescued my aunt and me is the young patriarch of this tribe. He has already told me that this tribe will listen to him." Tang Ying continued.

Yang Jianxin nodded. Today, Yang Jianxin has heard about the fact that Ye Qiong, the young patriarch of the tribe, rushed into the beast tide to kill a king-level monster solo, Yang Jianxin has heard it no less than ten times.

Throughout the night, the clansmen in the tribe were discussing this matter with great pride and pride.

Yang Jianxin did not see the scene where Ye Qiong killed the King Lion Moose, but just looking at the results alone, Yang Jianxin also admired Ye Qiong very much.

Above the snow star, the strong are respected!

As far as their caravan is concerned, when encountering a horde of beasts, they only have to escape for their lives, and no one would have the idea of single-handedly fighting the king of monsters.

Ye Qiong's behavior, in their eyes, is a very strange existence.

And Ye Qiong's will to fight is beyond their comprehension. After all, Ye Qiong has been in the army since he was sixteen years old in his last life. Ye Qiong joined the special forces when he was seventeen. He was sent to Africa to participate in some obscure special missions. Since then, Ye Qiong has traveled to many obscure corners of the seven continents.

So when Ye Qiong faced the beast horde, in order to minimize the tribe's casualties, Ye Qiong chose a seemingly risky but steady way to win while knowing his own strength.

Even if Ye Qiong didn't kill the King Lion Moose in the first place, with that huge boulder as a cover, Ye Qiong still had the confidence to persist until Ye Tianlong and the others came in.

Given the situation at that time, if Ye Qiong and the others really ran into the interior of the Dinglong Mountain Range and were surrounded by beast hordes, they would most likely be wiped out.

The tribe's houses are all piled up with snow blocks. If you look down from a high altitude, the whole tribe is like an open space hidden on the snow surface. It is impossible to tell that this is a human tribe.

In the dead of night, Dakui took Guoguo and Daidai back to their own cave. The three of them usually don't live in the tribe, but are about 500 meters away from the tribe.

On a small high slope with a leeward side, a deep hole was dug.

With the migration of the tribe for so many years, the three of them, Dakui and Guoguo, actually have their own lives. Like the neighbors of the tribe who are bound together by life and death, they silently guard the tribe, and the tribe also gives them food in return.

As for the Snowy Demon Wolf in the tribe, don't worry about them. There are also ranks among wolves. The one Ye Qiong is riding is the female wolf king among them. Ye Qiong also gave it a name, called babe.

When there is nothing to do on weekdays, the wolves are scattered, each has its own master, and when the wolves gather together, Beibei is the boss among them, and can mobilize the wolves to cooperate with humans Make a lot of battle modes.

Tribes, wolves, and long-tailed bears, complement each other. Since Xuexing entered the Ice Age, they have been working together until now. Millions of years have passed. By now, the tacit understanding between the three has long required no verbal communication. up.

Sometimes with just one look, they can understand what each other is going to do. After following in the footsteps of human beings for so long, the long-tailed bear and the snowy wolf are already very intelligent.

After the arrival of winter, no matter who leaves, they will live a miserable life, or even become extinct.

Yang Jianxin's caravan is now located in the northeast of the tribe. In fact, they only need to give them a place to come out. After all, as a caravan, they actually have their own supplies and food. After long-term camping in the wild, the caravan has an absolutely mature flexibility.

The people around Yang Jianxin are all senior executives of the caravan, including Tang Li. Although Tang Li is a woman, in terms of strength, she can be ranked among the top five in the entire caravan.

After discussing with each other for a while, everyone finally reached an agreement. If the tribe is willing to accept them, they will stay in this tribe in the future.

Early the next morning, the tribe held a meeting on the question of whether the caravan would stay or not, but the result was as expected. Ye Tianlong and the elders respected Ye Qiong's decision.

And the caravan naturally has no objection. After all, in a few months, it will enter the late winter period. If the caravan continues to run like this, there is a high probability of accidents!

Instead of finding another place to hibernate, it is definitely not as good as staying in a tribe with sufficient supplies and food.

However, Ye Qiong still kept the organization of their caravan. Ye Qiong has his own ideas on this point. When the spring of next year begins, this caravan will be of great use in Ye Qiong's planning.

Starting today, Ye Qiong and his tribe have a caravan that belongs exclusively to them.

Ye Qiong himself never imagined how valuable this caravan would be in the development of the tribe in the future... Snow Star's winter is so long that humans on this planet will forget that there is still spring for a while, and even many people You will subconsciously feel that maybe...

Spring will never come again.

This is also one of the reasons why the human beings on Snow Planet will fall into madness towards the end of winter. There are always some people whose thoughts are not firm, and after their emotions collapse, a chain reaction will occur.

This experience should be no less than going to jail.

Time flies, in a blink of an eye, a month has passed.

Tang Ying's caravan also adapted to the life rhythm of Ye Qiong's tribe.

And Ye Qiong has been planning many tedious things in the later period within this month. There are two reasons for doing so.

One is really idle and crazy...

The second is that Ye Qiong made up his mind after the last beast tide. It is very difficult to improve the civilization of the entire Snow Planet, but he must first improve the civilization of his own tribe.

If you want to improve the civilization of the entire Snow Planet, you must find resources such as coal mines and develop them!

"Eighteen months of winter..." Ye Qiong was on the ground, drawing his thoughts with branches.

Although there are words on Snow Star, they are rarely used because the carrier is too expensive.

What Ye Qiong wrote on the ground were all Chinese characters, and to the people in the tribe, they were all ghost symbols.

The reason for writing on the ground is also because Xue Xing has not yet invented paper, and the tools for people to record words are on animal skins and wooden slips.

On the animal skin, the bile of a snake-like animal is used to prick and dye it with wooden needles, which is equivalent to the effect of a tattoo, and it can be preserved for hundreds of years after air-drying.

The wooden slips were carved with knives, and the preservation time is the longest, which can last for thousands of years.

Six months of the eighteen-month winter have passed, and there are still twelve months, which is equivalent to the earth where Ye Qiong is, one year...

In the past twelve months, Ye Qiong is not going to wait for the beginning of spring idly and lazily like in previous years. He wants to lead his clansmen to do some things so that when spring comes next year, many things can be carried out smoothly.

In the tribe where the strong are respected, the soldiers have no interest in training Ye Qiong, and Rong Ling and Ye Qiong's second uncle Ye Tianling are in charge of it.

But now Ye Qiong urgently needs to solve the problem of education.

After thinking for a while, Ye Qiong poured a large cup of wolf milk tea into his belly, then walked out of his snow cave and walked towards Tang Ying and their caravan.

Ye Qiong was the first to find Tang Ying, and Tang Ying's task in the caravan was to record the supplies and daily consumption of the caravan, which was equivalent to a financial and cashier position.

"Sit down first, I'll show you the list of supplies." Tang Ying let Ye Qiong into the snow cave, poured Ye Qiong a glass of water, and signaled Ye Qiong to sit down first.

Then Tang Ying walked out, and walked in with a few wooden slips in her arms after a while.

Ye Qiong looked at the wooden slips on the stone table, and couldn't help rubbing the center of his brows. Now Ye Qiong has made up his mind that in the coming spring, he must make paper...

The words recorded on the wooden slips are all one-time, and it would be very troublesome and wasteful to use wooden slips to record things such as updating materials.

Ye Qiong looked at the current material reserves of the entire caravan, and then he couldn't help but sighed and said, "You are too poor to get rid of the pot..."

Tang Ying's face was reddish, she looked embarrassed, and she said shyly, "Well... it's a little... But we still have a lot of supplies, but last time we encountered a beast horde, in order to save our lives, A lot of materials have to be given up."

"It's a pity." Ye Qiong continued, giving Tang Ying a step down.

When a caravan encounters a beast horde, it naturally has no choice but to flee. As for the supplies and food it carries, it can take as much as it wants, and the abandoned supplies and food will definitely be wiped out by the beast horde in minutes.

"Is there anything I can do in your tribe?" Tang Ying said while rubbing her slender hands. It seems that Tang Ying has become bored after a month of settled life. The boring life is really driving people crazy.

And the warriors in the tribe can also go outside the tribe to collect some timber resources from time to time.

Old people, children and women can only stay in the tribe and do some mending, such as stitching together dried animal skins and making clothes for the tribe.

On Xuexing, the nights are relatively long in winter, and the day is about 24 hours, while the winter night is 15 hours.

The star light source above the head during the day is equivalent to the sun of the earth. From the perspective of the snow star, it is much smaller in winter and twice as large in summer.

In the already long winter, sleeping is the best and most helpless way for humans on Snow Planet to pass the time.

Belongs to being forced to lie flat.

"I came here just to talk to you about this matter. There is a school in our tribe that can teach children too little knowledge. I plan to teach you some things, and then you are responsible for organizing and recording the knowledge. How about it... …First take out all the leather cloths and wooden slips in your caravan, I will tell you some, and you will memorize some." Ye Qiong said.

Tang Ying took Ye Qiong out and brought all the leather cloths and wooden slips of their caravan, and they piled up more than one meter high.

As the saying goes, learning mathematics, physics and chemistry well and traveling all over the world, Ye Qiong himself doesn't have the patience and energy to educate children, otherwise the overall cultural level of the tribe will definitely improve a lot in the past two years.

Now that Ye Qiong has made up his mind to develop Xue Xing's civilization, he must take this step.

And the very beginning is definitely the hardest. He has to find someone who can replace him, and this person must first have a higher IQ.

Ye Qiong searched in the tribe for a long time, but he didn't find anyone who could do the job. The clansmen in his age group were either terrified to see Ye Qiong, or wished to confess Ye Qiong as a god.

The appearance of Tang Ying made Ye Qiong see hope, and it was precisely because of Tang Ying's intelligent conditions that Yang Jianxin could rest assured that he would leave the most important and tedious tasks of the caravan to her.

So Tang Ying now belongs to Ye Qiong's ideal person, replacing him to improve the cultural level of the tribe as a whole.

Ye Qiong actually planned this matter a long time ago, and it is progressing smoothly now.

In order to prevent Tang Ying from having the idea of collapse, Ye Qiong instilled Tang Ying very slowly.

However, Tang Ying's performance exceeded Ye Qiong's expectations.

As for the education method, Ye Qiong is standing on the shoulders of giants and has a complete teaching system.

The three most important subjects are opened first, that is, mathematics, physics, and chemistry.

The priority is chemistry over physics over mathematics. After all, for the tribe, mathematics has nothing to do with them. There is no currency on Snow Planet now, and they have no idea about money and numbers...
