Poseidon City received the first batch of salt "handed over" by the Tianshui Tribe of Sun City. Was it half of the salt mountain's output as originally agreed upon? As for whether it was half, no one from the Sea Tribe was monitoring the salt mountain in Sun City, so they just gave as much as they could get.
Of course, the output of the salt mountain is based on the output of previous years, and the Tianshui tribe will certainly not be too stingy. The Tianshui tribe certainly does not want to give it, but the Hai tribe is too aggressive, and they are really afraid that the Hai tribe will fight back if they are unhappy.
A batch of salt is handed over every six months, and the amount is quite large. The Hai Tribe itself has a large population and is also short of salt. Of course, whether there is a shortage of salt or not is relative.
Honestly, the Tianshui tribe wanted to leave. Although the salt mountains in Sun City produced good yields, they were no longer suitable for farming. The climate change was similar to that in Poseidon City. Furthermore, the agricultural yields in Sun City were already much lower than those in Poseidon City.
How can we feed so many people on the grassland without food?
The constant torrential rains made even grazing unsuitable. Could they rely solely on the salt mountains for survival? The population of the Sun City region was fleeing in ever-increasing numbers. Some (the original inhabitants of the Sun City region) had fled to the warmer areas of Haifan City, while some small tribes (original grassland people) were migrating to the vast grasslands further south.
Grassland people? They're used to migration. Since the Sun City area is no longer suitable for farming and grazing, are they still staying here to die? The Tianshui Tribe can't support so many people.
The general trend is that the decline of the Sun City area is only a matter of time.
The Tianshui Tribe had handed over salt to Poseidon City, hoping to exchange it for food, even potatoes. However, Poseidon City couldn't even grow any crops, so where would they get the food to exchange with the Tianshui Tribe?
Lu Fang and Guo Sheng naturally would not decide not to exchange on their own. They asked Haifan City for permission and let the higher-ups make the decision.
I'm forcing you, the Tianshui tribe, to leave. Will you leave? If not, I'll starve you to death.
The Tianshui tribe finally left. The main tribe, along with some small tribes that depended on them, migrated to the southern part of the prairie in a mighty force.
According to the instructions of the charlatan, the cavalry should not occupy Sun City for the time being, but should go to the inland area west of Sun City for further exploration.
The development of the Hai Tribe has always relied on the coast. What about the inland areas? Ma Yue himself doesn't know. If you don't explore, how will you know if there are any suitable places for farming?
Just because Ma Yue has no intention of expanding at this point doesn't mean he won't in the future. Therefore, early exploration is crucial. We can't rely solely on the navy for this kind of exploration, can we?
The warm zone is nice, but what about the future? The warm zone is located further north than Poseidon City, so theoretically, the climate should be even colder. Just look at the decline of Qiuhai City. What if the climate in the warm zone near Haifan City also changes drastically, making it unsuitable for agriculture and animal husbandry?
Be prepared for a rainy day. After all, the Sun City area is further south, right?
The world is so big, and Ma Yue doesn’t know how big the mainland is. Of course, he needs to explore further.
As for Poseidon City, the salt production is huge and they will not give up easily for the time being. Of course, the continuous heavy rain has greatly affected the salt production along the coast of Poseidon City.
Everything depends on luck, what will happen if we don’t prepare for a rainy day?
The southern steppes don't lack access to the sea. Logically, with access to the sea, they would all be able to make salt. So why did the cavalry from the southern steppes insist on expanding further north to the East China Sea? Just because of that saltwater lake? That couldn't be the case, right? At least the Red Tibetan tribe had a large access to the sea, suitable for large-scale salt production.
The white people have already gone to the East China Sea Island to explore, and the Sea Tribe has no idea about the specific situation of the southern prairie.
Is it possible that areas further south are also suitable for farming and grazing?
Regardless of whether it is suitable or not, the seaport of the Southern Prairie is too far away from Haifan City, and the sea route can take one or two months.
Bing Yueyue and Bing Yueshui volunteered to go to the southern coast to explore and gather information. Ma Yue had no objection. After all, Bing Yueyue and Bing Yueshui were cultivators and had water-based spiritual boats, which were very fast and convenient for traveling back and forth.
"Tie Lin, not bad, you've advanced too, hehe!"
"Thank you, charlatan, for the mid-grade spirit stone." Tie Lin had advanced to the Martial Master level. The impact of a mid-grade spirit stone was immense, playing a decisive role in his advancement. Of course, Tie Lin's own awareness and motivation for advancement were the most important.
Ma Yue knew firsthand how difficult it was to advance. When he first tried to advance to the Martial Master level, he nearly failed. If it weren't for his three thousand fans in Poseidon City who greatly boosted Ma Yue's mental strength...
Tielin's aptitude is average, so it is indeed a good opportunity for him to advance.
"Since you've advanced, you should stay in Haifan City and let Tiechun go to Lingguo Island for training."
"Yeah!" Tielin was very obedient and not very ambitious. His biggest wish was to become the chief of the Min Department of the Sea Tribe. Wanting to stand out? That's normal.
"What are your ideas? Tell me." Ma Yue knew that Tielin was an honest man.
"How about I go to Qiu Haicheng?" After all, he was a primitive man, so he was very direct.
Ma Yue understood that Tielin wanted to be independent. That was fine. Since Tielin came to the Hai Tribe, he had always played the role of assistant. Being the boss of a branch was indeed a good exercise.
Many leaders of the Sea Tribe have served as leaders of branches. This is a process of gradual training.
However, Qiu Haicheng was becoming increasingly difficult. Not only was it no longer suitable for farming, but even mining copper was becoming difficult. Qiu Haicheng's decline was inevitable.
"Okay, I'll transfer Ma Mian and Ma Han back. From now on, Qiu Haicheng will rely on you." Since he wants to gain experience, he should do it thoroughly. Ma Yue is still very optimistic about Tie Lin.
