Chapter 320 Huge Food Pressure



This is how Ma Yue calculated it with the messenger from the sacred mountain. Of course, the water content here is quite high, considering the terrifying agricultural productivity of the Sea Tribe... Ma Yue himself didn't bother to calculate it in detail. Anyway, this is my calculation, believe it or not. If you don't believe me, just ask someone else.

What's the point of giving me a share of this? You have eight sacred mountains in total, plus the Sea Tribe. If the nine families share the output of the mid-grade spirit stone mine, how much will be left? No matter what you do, there is always the question of whether it is worth it.

Chunwu's intelligence department wasn't just for show; Ma Yue knew the approximate output of the Qingfeng Tribe's mid-grade spirit stone mine. The mine had been mined for years, but it was becoming increasingly difficult, with output decreasing year by year.

Nine families share? Every year, at most, they can get a hundred fire-type medium-grade spirit stones, which is nothing. It's simply the Sea Tribe's concern. Are they working for your Shenshan?

The biggest gain might be the land in the Sea God City area. Land? Does it make sense for the current Sea Tribe? Only a small portion of the warm zone has been developed. Who would care about the land in the Thunder God City area, where the grain yield per mu is even lower?

The three priests had no objection to the charlatan's decision. Our Sea Tribe has a good harvest in this warm zone, so why would we go to your Thunder God City? If your Thunder God City had a higher per-acre grain yield, the three priests might be tempted. If it meant taking advantage, of course they would be willing.

The Poseidon City area is the closest to the Haifan City, and has a lot of detailed intelligence, which is known to the top leaders of the Sea Tribe.

"It's better not to go, you charlatan. That medium-grade spirit stone mine is the root of all trouble. There will be more trouble in the future." Wu Qi said.

"Well, I agree that we shouldn't mess with that **** bug. There's nothing we can do about it. The charlatan won't accept anyone, and the Sea Tribe has limited military strength.

"Shuichong, the navy needs to work harder. Our Sea Tribe's food reserves are really running low. Try to get more fish and meat." Ma Yue was concerned about his tribe's food security. The power of faith is complementary. The fans provided you, Ma Yue, with the power of faith. You, Ma Yue, feel guilty for not being able to feed the people of the Sea Tribe.

"Don't worry, Godhead! The new spear gun made by the Tool Bureau is very powerful. It has a long range and strong power. It is fully capable of killing big fish in the sea."

The harpoon, or Ma Yue's general idea? In the past, whaling was essentially using a barbed harpoon. Instead of beef tendon, the tendons of large livestock were used to make bowstrings, which were fired from large boats in a fixed pattern. As long as they stabbed the whale... Of course, even if they stabbed the whale, it wouldn't die immediately. They had to "walk the fish" around. Whales are so large that if they weren't careful, the boat would capsize and people would die.

"Okay! Whether we can survive the famine successfully depends on your navy, Shuichong." Until autumn, the Sea Tribe will not have any new food output, and the pressure is really great.

"Don't worry, charlatan. My fleet followed Hai Rui to the No. 7 sea area. There were huge whales all over the place. Our navy is sure to complete the mission." This was related to the survival of the Sea Tribe. The navy had never felt such great pressure before.

Hai Rui was lucky, as a brilliant navigator, and had actually found the whale's tracks. As for whether or not they could hunt whales, the Sea Tribe's navy was completely inexperienced.

What is experience? You've fought, fought, and experienced it, and you have experience. Of course, the navy is not willing to always play with sea transportation. We are soldiers, we can't eat for free, right? Our navy can also harvest a lot of food.

"It would be great if we could really hunt whales." The third priest couldn't help but sigh as he watched Shuichong personally lead the main navy.

"Yes, not only is our Sea Tribe short of food, but so are the other tribes we collaborate with on farming. With the summer harvest gone, I'm afraid they'll starve to death too," Wu Qi said. This guy was no ordinary military commander, similar to White Eagle, skilled in both civil and military matters. "If they had whale meat to eat, many of them would have survived."

Cooperative farming doesn't mean you have to wait until the autumn harvest to share the profits. How can we insist on harvesting in autumn when everyone is starving? If you're given plenty of whale meat, and you survive, then at the autumn harvest, you can compensate them with the grain you were given.

"I also understand what the charlatan meant by potential population. Those who cooperate with us in farming are basically the potential population of our sea tribe. In the future... if too many people really starve to death, the charlatan will probably get angry." The third priest's ability to comprehension is of course very strong.

"Yes, this is good. One day in the future, when the charlatan needs us, everyone will be willing to join our Hai tribe with just a call. It's better to avoid the situation like before, when the charlatan personally led the team out to fight and rob people in order to increase the population, haha!" Wu Qi said with a smile.

"We are actually very happy to have such a charlatan who always thinks about the people of the Sea Tribe." said the third priest.

"It's not that good. Look at the representatives of various sacred mountains who negotiated with our charlatan last time. They were all so arrogant, as if the life and death of mortals like us who can't practice cultivation didn't matter to them. Damn it!" Wu Qi, as a high-ranking member of the Sea Tribe, also participated in the last negotiation meeting with the three priests and was greatly stimulated.

Haifan City dispatched a large number of main fleets, all the main naval commanders, including the martial arts masters Bing Yueshui and Bing Yueyue, and all the marines, causing panic in the east trade zone of the city. It was unclear who the Sea Tribe was going to attack.

The sea tribe's sailing ships are very fast, so it's unrealistic for you to chase them. Besides, do you dare to chase them?

In reality, Haifan City hadn't changed much, and things continued as they should. This kind of Haifan City brought a lot of peace of mind to the trade zone west of the city. For those in the business community, the biggest fear was war.

News from Poseidon City indicated that despite the longer winter, the radishes were growing normally. Ma Yue felt relieved; as long as the crops didn't fail, everything was fine.

The colder weather in Poseidon City is steadily intensifying, which isn't a good sign. We can only watch this continue year after year. If things don't work out, we'll have to abandon Poseidon City altogether. It's unsuitable for farming and animal husbandry, and if we're just boiling salt... Furthermore, the winters are too long, the sunlight is insufficient, and the cost of boiling salt is high. In that case, we'd be worse off than the Kirishima branch.

As for the Lingguo Island branch, it is too difficult to expand the arable land in the shrub area, and the amount of arable land added in the short term will not be too much. Ma Yue is mentally prepared for this. Two thousand large livestock are already the limit of the Lingguo Island branch, and five thousand working people are basically enough.

Tielin's feedback was promising: Spirit Fruit Island's pig farming operation had produced another thousand piglets, with the number expected to increase significantly. It was said that after Tielin fed the sows a few spiritual fruits, the sows' litter size increased significantly, and the resulting piglets were surprisingly strong.

Damn! Even pigs can eat spiritual fruits.

The spiritual fruit's cultivation effect was average, and the various sacred mountains had basically stopped trading spiritual fruit with the Spiritual Fruit Island. Okay, if the spiritual cultivators don't need it, it's fine to feed the pigs.

Not only did spiritual cultivators dislike spiritual fruits, even spiritual horses had little interest in them. Spiritual beasts were the most sensitive to their own feelings. If it was of no use to them, why would they eat it?
