As the growth of onions and garlic returned to normal, the prosperity of the Haifan tribe became visible to the naked eye.
The delicious green onions and fried chopped green onions have greatly enhanced the taste of Haifan Tribe's food, and the superb seasoning ability of garlic has also been greatly recognized.
Ma Yue's diet finally returned to normal.
Three thousand acres of land were plowed in the spring, and six thousand acres of potatoes were harvested in the autumn. The harvest was plentiful. This year, the Haifan tribe was very peaceful.
No one likes war; it kills people. Farmers and herders who can live and work in peace and contentment are, of course, the best.
Even though winter had arrived, Ma Yue no longer had any desire to go out and fight. There was no need for that.
As for the Blue Tribe station, they don't even trade large livestock anymore, so why bother going there? It's so far away, there's no point in going there.
The Navy Department finally had its first harvest. Although it was pitifully small, Ma Yue still praised it highly.
Hairtail, what a good thing! Ma Yue took most of it for himself without hesitation.
Even though there are no peppercorns, star anise, seasoning wine or the like, the sea fish, when stewed, will be fragrant as long as there is garlic!
Ma Yue's recipe has added another dish, hairtail fish! Pure wild hairtail fish.
The Haifan tribe did not attack, and the other three tribes breathed a sigh of relief. The Haifan tribe is now very powerful, and it also has a powerful charlatan who cannot be provoked.
The Haifan Tribe won't join in, will it? The three major tribes are still refusing to stop fighting. The people in this area are so warlike. They feel uneasy if they don't fight a battle every year.
The Qingfeng tribe and the Bingyan tribe formed an alliance and began an expedition.
"Aren't we going to attack the Thunder God Tribe?" Ma Yuehe was curious.
"They went further west of the Howling Valley. Our spies couldn't get through the Howling Valley, so we have no way of knowing where they went."
"Okay, let them make trouble if they want to." Ma Yue didn't care, as long as they didn't come to attack him.
"You charlatan, the Thunder God Tribe has also sent troops and entered the southern forest." Hai Dao continued to report, and there was also information mixed with spring fog.
"The Southern Great Forest? They can't defeat the coalition forces stationed in the Blue Tribe?"
"Our reconnaissance deer cavalry have caught up. The route is wrong. The target is obviously not the Blue Tribe station."
"Well, let's keep following up. Be especially careful around us, don't let anyone catch us off guard."
"clear!"
Now, the three major tribes in the core area have set out one after another.
"You charlatan, are we really not going to move?" Lei Qing was still tickled.
"Aren't you afraid that the three major tribes did this on purpose to lure us out?"
"This..." Lei Qing thought about it and realized that it was indeed possible. If the three tribes joined forces in the wild, the Haifan tribe would not be able to withstand it.
"That's not necessary. Even if you bring back more people and livestock..."
…
Ma Yue's current interest in the navy far outweighs his interest in the inland. The ocean is a treasure trove. The primitive tribes on land are each poorer than the other. What's there to fight for?
The navy is becoming more familiar with sailing and, if possible, making some improvements, all based on practical considerations. The process of exploration is arduous, and development requires necessary sacrifices, but the cost is worth it.
"God, we accidentally found an island that is entirely made of limestone." Wu Qi delivered a shocking news.
"Limestone islands? Are they far away?"
"It's not far. Our sailboat doesn't need to follow the ocean currents. A round trip of three days will be enough. Haha!"
What can you find in the ocean? Sometimes, it really depends on luck. A three-day sea voyage, round trip, really isn't far away. The island is right there, and you can only find it by luck.
"It's a pity that there is nothing on the island except limestone. We can't burn it into lime on the limestone island and then transport it back." Wu Qi still felt a little regretful.
"It's good enough to find limestone. Keep looking, maybe you can find a treasure island or something in the future, haha!" Exploring the ocean is a long process. Although sailing ships are very small now and cannot go out to the open sea, it's also okay to look near the coast.
"Okay, let's transport back a large amount of limestone first." The current number of sailing ships is still limited. Finding limestone has made some contribution to the tribe, and the navy will feel more at ease. No one wants to do it for free, right?
Since we want to develop the navy, Hai and Baipi successfully purchased the skins of two large whales from the ghost town. Without skins, there will be no sails.
If you build a sailboat again, it needs to be bigger. Otherwise, it won't have much carrying capacity, so what's the point? A bigger one will also be more stable in the ocean, right?
The bottom of the sailboat has roughly two layers. Thanks to the buoyancy of the sailboat's own wood, even if the bottom layer is partially soaked in water, the upper layer will not be affected by water.
The larger the area of a sailboat and the more wood it uses, the greater its buoyancy will be.
This is basically the principle. For the rest, you can only figure it out slowly.
The sailboat, which was more than ten meters long, had been expanded to more than twenty meters in length, and the width had also been appropriately increased. After almost a year of exploration, the waves on the sea were not big, at least it would not capsize, and Ma Yue was satisfied.
If the boat really capsized in the sea, Ma Yue would have no choice. Does exploration require sacrifice? Anyway, I won’t sacrifice myself. I am the exploiting class, so I can just sit on the shore and watch the effects and results.
The three priests cooperated very well with the development of the navy and mobilized a large number of able-bodied laborers to help with logging. Was it all for the cause of the sea tribe?
In order for the navy to build more and bigger ships, Lei Qing's hunting team is about to disband. There is no other way. Shipbuilding requires a large number of laborers, and they all have to support it.
In the vigorous shipbuilding movement, most of the labor force of the Haifan tribe was helping to build ships.
