Chapter 368: Giant Monster
After finishing a lunch that should not exist in this era, Zhou Xu wiped the corner of his mouth.
"Okay, I have almost finished introducing Black Moon Village. Except for the grassland elves in charge of silkworm rearing and weaving, the other grassland elves will stay here. The village chief will make proper arrangements for you later."
This situation stunned many grassland elves. Many of them thought that the Black Moon Village in front of them would be where they would live from now on.
To some extent, this is true, but not entirely.
This made many grassland elves a little confused about what to do.
Then they all turned their eyes to Silk.
Obviously, Silk has now become the backbone of their tribe.
Feeling the gazes from the tribesmen, Silk hurried over to ask the reason.
"Chief, why is this? Aren't they all arranged here?"
In response to this question, Zhou Xu smiled and said as a matter of course...
"Oh, that's right. Here, jobs like silkworm rearing and weaving are concentrated in another village. Each village has its own responsibilities."
Having said this, Zhou Xu paused.
"Don't worry, it's very close, basically right next door. At our speed, we'll be there in no time."
Silk could no longer hear what Zhou Xu said next, as his mind was now filled with thoughts of "another village".
But Zhou Xuke didn't care about all that and controlled the pace throughout the whole process. Under his command, the large army maintained efficiency and rushed towards the Salt Lake Village at the fastest speed after leaving behind a part of the grassland elves.
As we all know, Salt Lake Village is not far from Black Moon Village, and the two villages are basically like neighbors.
But at this moment, what Silk and the others care about is not the distance, but how come there is still a village? !
The scale and area of Salt Lake Village is actually not smaller than that of Black Moon Village, but all kinds of factories are concentrated here, so the environment here does not look as comfortable as that of Black Moon Village.
However, the impact it brought to Silk and the others was not small at all.
During this time, Drogo, who was also a little dumbfounded, asked a question that the grassland elves, including Silk, had always wanted to ask.
"Chief, how many villages do we have here?"
Faced with this question, Zhou Xu had no intention of hiding the answer and gave it directly.
“There are currently five villages, and we plan to build the sixth village next year.”
This answer made Drogo, Silk and the others' scalps tingle.
To a modern person like Zhou Xu, just five villages may not be much at all, and may even be considered a bit shabby.
But in fact, this idea is very narrow-minded. For most things in this world, you have to look at them in comparison.
In this tribal era, the total population of most tribes is only a few dozen people. A tribe of a hundred people is already considered a large tribe. If it is upgraded to a village, it is considered an even more powerful force.
Someone like Zhou Xu directly owns five villages, and the scale of each village is incomparable to that of ordinary villages. In this tribal era, he is definitely a behemoth!
In their view, the scale of the Great Zhou and its current population were completely beyond common sense, which brought great shock and shock to Drogo and Silk.
And this was undoubtedly one of the reasons why Zhou Xu asked them to go together.
Even though the Centaurs led by Drogo and the Grassland Elves led by Silk had surrendered to them long before.
But it is hard to say how loyal they are to the Great Zhou.
At this time, if you want them to follow you sincerely, the most direct way is to show your strength.
While talking, Zhou Xu led Silk and the others into the Salt Lake Village.
This time his target was clear and he came directly to the weaving factory.
"This is our weaving factory. All the corresponding work is done here."
The weaving factory is here, which is the main reason why Zhou Xu plans to put all the work of silkworm breeding and silk production here.
After all, since the grassland elves know how to raise silkworms and weave silk, they naturally also master the textile craft. Some of them are capable of working in weaving factories.
Of course, another reason was that he wanted to further disperse the limited population of grassland elves.
As newcomers, the grassland elves would probably prefer to stick together rather than interact with other humans.
This is what Zhou Xu doesn't want to see.
In addition, if they all gather in one place, it will invisibly increase the probability of some "accidents" happening.
Based on these two considerations, the simplest solution is to break them up further so that they cannot scale up.
Since Zhou Xu had already shown the weaving factory, Silke and the others' thoughts were drawn here, so naturally they didn't think too much about it.
At the moment, Wang Dong is busy teaching the village heads and ministers and is not here.
Before they pushed the door open, the sounds of the multiple looms working inside reached their ears.
Zhou Xu took the lead and led everyone into the weaving factory.
Silk and the others thought that they would not be able to be scared this time. After all, from what they saw during this period of time, the fabric used by the other party was still at the level of linen.
On the other hand, they had already started weaving silk.
They are definitely leading in this area.
It was not until those huge hand-cranked looms came into their sight that the grassland elves' originally confident expressions were instantly replaced by a feeling of bewilderment...
Looking at the linen being woven quickly along with the shaking movement driven by the tool, they basically knew what this thing was.
But the problem is that this is not what they thought! At that moment, they all felt their scalps tingling.
Zhou Xu directly used the hand-cranked looms in front of him, which made them unable to understand the operating principle, to tell the grassland elves that although I can't handle the raw materials and can't weave silk, it doesn't mean that my equipment is not good! After all, how many people are there in the grassland elves? According to the population size of their Great Zhou, if the weaving efficiency cannot be improved, everyone's clothes cannot be arranged at all.
The two sides are not on the same level at all.
"The grassland elves who were previously engaged in weaving can directly enter the weaving factory. As for those who are responsible for silkworm breeding, the land nearby has been allocated to you, and you can directly build a silkworm breeding factory."
Having said this, Zhou Xu paused.
"Of course, considering that you may not have enough manpower, we will arrange a group of staff to come and help with this work. If you need anything, you can find him. He is the village chief of Salt Lake Village."
As Zhou Xu spoke, he pulled Li Shitou over and introduced him to everyone.
