Even though there are forests, the trees are not as lush as those in Qingshan City. Although there are flowers and plants, the beach still occupies a larger area. Therefore, it looks a little desolate than Qingshan City, but it has a different style.
I took them through the door and walked them into an office with a bathroom and a lounge. The huge windows were covered with glass, making the entire office extremely bright.
Curtains were hung by the windows and could be drawn at any time. A fireplace was built in the office room. When building the fireplace, Meng Yuqing's artistic cells suddenly came into play and he designed it carefully. However, this particularly exquisite fireplace seemed a bit out of place in the simple office.
After Meng Yuqing briefly explained the function of the fireplace, many sea orcs ran to squat beside the fireplace, and a few of them even touched the fireplace directly.
"This firewood is beautiful, practical and good-looking." The tribes in the sea generally have no shortage of daily necessities, so they also have certain pursuits for the appearance of the things they use.
Meng Yuqing waited until they had almost finished touching the fireplace before saying, "Now let's go to the rest room, that's where the main event is."
After saying that, he took Po directly to the room. Po looked up and down the room with a hint of doubt in his eyes. He didn't see anything that could keep him warm.
Meng Yuqing pointed to the already made bed and said, "This is it."
Now the doubt in Po's eyes became more obvious.
Meng Yuqing did not keep the secret and directly lifted the bedding on the bed, exposing the original appearance of the bed to the eyes of the sea orcs, and explained how to use the kang.
Then he saw gleaming eyes in the eyes of those sea orcs.
The beast forms of many orcs in the sea are not cold-resistant, and there are many and diverse beast forms in a tribe, so the place where the tribe is located is not necessarily a place suitable for their beast forms to live.
Sea snake orcs like Po have suffered a lot in winter for a long time. Meng Yuqing had no idea how important the kang and fireplace he introduced to them were to these sea tribes.
Fortunately, the orcs have strong vitality and adaptability. Unsuitable environments will only make their lives difficult in certain seasons, but will not cause any deaths.
Otherwise, how could the three sled dogs live in the Northwestern Dog Orc Tribe for so many years?
The northwest is so hot that other orcs would feel cold and not want to move in winter, but the three sled idiots are different. Winter is the time for them to have fun.
The sea beastmen were circling around the kang, discussing whether they should try to light it up now. Meng Yuqing quickly got out of bed.
It's summer now. Whoever wants to lie on the kang with fire can go ahead. He doesn't want to lie there.
In a forest about two days' journey from Haicheng Market, there lives a tribe of about 500 people.
"Chief, should we go over and communicate with them?" A baby-faced young orc looked at his chief and asked.
The clan leader pondered for a moment and said, "Of course we have to go. The people of Qingshan City are working together with the sea tribe orcs to build something. There must be something important going on. We live nearby, so we must learn a little bit about the situation."
He looked up at his people. "The people of Qingshan City aren't the type to look down on others. I vaguely heard they opened a school and are willing to teach young people from other tribes. They've invited many tribes to study there, and some of the ones that received the invitations are even smaller than ours."
"Unfortunately, we're quite far from them, and they don't know where our tribe is. That's probably why we didn't receive an invitation. I was planning to ask them during this year's market if they're still accepting people, but now it seems I can ask in advance."
After hearing what the chief said, the young orc nodded and said, "Then when should we go? It seems their construction is almost finished, and they might leave soon."
The tribe leader lowered his head and thought for a moment before saying, "We'll set off tomorrow. I'll personally lead the group there and prepare some dried fruits and meat from our tribe, as well as some fresh fruits. A large portion of their food here is shipped in from Qingshan City. Although what we bring won't be enough for them to eat for a few days, it's out of our good intentions. Seeing this, they'll definitely be willing to talk to us."
After receiving the order from the patriarch, the people of the fruit tribe started to move.
Meng Yuqing and the people of the Blue Water Tribe were putting the final touches on the construction of Haicheng and Haicheng Market. The workload was no longer heavy, so everyone had half a day of rest every day.
The sea orcs began to look for those huge protruding reefs or small islands of several hundred square meters in the sea near the market as their place to stay after the market officially opened.
The people from other tribes brought from Qingshan City were also decorating the houses allocated to their tribes in Haicheng.
As for the people of Qingshan City, they all live in the administrative district.
Meng Yuqing took Po, Fei, and the person in charge of Bird Island, Li Tuan, and also brought Ling. The five of them sat in the largest office in Haicheng. He took out a currency plan.
Po couldn't understand the words yet, so Meng Yuqing read them to him directly.
As he read, he explained, "Barter is still too troublesome, and the circulation of goods is not convenient. Often, I want something from you, but I don't have what you need, which leads to transactions being stuck."
"Before the salt-making method was made public, salt was generally available. However, some tribes needed other things instead of salt. Now, food and cloth in Qingshan City are considered universal goods, but some people may only want one and not the other."
"Therefore, we use a work point policy to manage the tribes living near Qingshan City."
"Assuming they work a normal day without being late or leaving early or skipping work, we will give them ten work points as adult orcs."
"A young beastman over fourteen who is not yet an adult is worth five work points. An adult sub-beastman, a young beastman over fourteen who is not yet an adult, or a young beastman under fourteen who is four years old is worth two work points."
"Finally, there are sub-beasts under fourteen and over eight. They only count towards one work point. This is the most basic allocation of physical labor. If there are skilled workers among them, then that would be a different allocation method."
"As for the younger cubs not mentioned, we don't recommend them for work. First, sub-beast cubs are too young and prone to accidents. Second, orc cubs are too young and sometimes difficult to control, which can easily delay normal work. To ensure that those working with us can work with peace of mind, we have established an organization dedicated to the management of cubs."
