Chapter 204. Caravans are appearing one after another

Everything stabilized.

Kant toured the villages, which were still small, but they were also prosperous.

Eyes swept over the southwest corner, 10 3-meter-high earthen kilns built with stones and earth, and streams of green smoke rose up, but this green smoke was not conspicuous, because it was less than ten meters away from the top of the mountain, and it dissipated in the slight mountain breeze that appeared all the time in the Sanwaya Mountains, and it could no longer be seen.

This is the only building in the village of "Aaron" that currently produces goods.

Charcoal kiln.

Dedicated to the sentry oasis salt workshop.

At the same time, it also provides the family of "Drehem" with materials for heating at night.

Now 30 Rhodok farmers are in charge of it on a full-time basis, after all, in addition to the charcoal being shipped to "Drehem", there is also a lot of demand in "Aaron", where they are located.

For example, all kinds of prey brought back by the hunting team, after being skinned and dissected, are made into long strips of meat, but they have to rely on these charcoal to smoke, roast, sprinkle a layer of fine white salt while hot, and hang in the shade to wait for natural air drying, which can form air-dried meat that can be stored for a long time, and supply it to "Drehem" to increase meat.

There is no shortage of abundant flora and fauna in the Sanwaya Mountains.

The hunting team only wandered around a few nearby hills, plus surveyed the terrain, and they were able to harvest a lot of prey.

The demonic creatures have been purged of it.

The rest are small wild animals such as wild boars, desert antelopes, elk, pheasants, hares, foxes, etc., or there are many large wild animals such as wild wolves, black bears, lions, and cheetahs, but none of them can pose the slightest threat to the hunting party composed of Ravenston rangers and Rhodok farmers.

Instead, it has become the main source of air-dried meat in the village of "Aaron".

At the same time, the cleared hill was also planned as a forest farm to vigorously develop the logging industry.

At the foot of the forest farm, a small river formed by an underground river gushing out of the ground, and on both sides of the paved road, lumberyards were set up, and every day a large amount of timber was cut down and transported to the lake at the bottom of the hill in the village of "Aaron", where there were special people waiting to process the wood.

The firewood is directly crushed to form lumps and transported to the charcoal kiln on the top of the mountain to be fired into high-quality charcoal.

This is the complete planning process of "Aaron" at the moment.

Follow-up planning has also been preliminarily followed.

Kant and Manid and James inspected the hills on either side of the river, and the gentler slopes of the hills were the places where the logging industry was thriving, and the cutting of trees was very vigorous.

When the trees on these slopes are all cut down, they are leveled.

Although the Rhodok people did not have the technology to build terraces, this technique was not a top secret that could not be learned, but it was not difficult to imitate, and Kant, who had the experience of his previous life, understood this in his mind, and it was completely possible to experiment on the slopes of the hill after leveling, and finally perfectly formed a high-quality terraced field that could grow lush crops.

For this reason, a week ago, the creek next to the paved road was slightly dredged.

Plug all overflowing streams.

At the same time, the mud in the shallows and other places was dug up, so that the depth of the creek was close to 2 meters.

The canyon between the mountains was originally the route of the flood after heavy rains in the past, and it has long been washed down over the years, and it has long been a river channel, but it only appears during the summer rainstorms, and now it has become a constant flow river.

According to Manid, the creek is fully navigable.

Although it can only drive a small sampan 1 meter wide.

But it also belongs to the boat.

Hundreds of small sampans, 1 meter wide and 3 meters long, carry more goods than hundreds of pack horses, and the speed is very fast, as long as you are careful of the gentle river between the canyons, it will take less than 30 minutes to walk through a caravan of pack horses or camels, which can be walked in nearly 4 hours.

The hill on which the village of "Aaron" is located is far from the edge of the mountain range where the desert is located.

Although this is still the outer area of the Sanwaya Mountains, this so-called outer area is still a daunting area compared to the entire mountain range.

You know, when Kant entered the mountains.

Even if there was a systematic road, he didn't get there until near dusk.

Nearly half of the day's time was consumed.

Even if a paved road is built.

It would take about 3 hours to reach the foot of the mountain from the entrance, not to mention the slower packhorse caravans.

Kant had even a more long-term plan.

If it were possible, when a new spring was extracted, he would definitely place it on the way to the river, replenish the water in a big way, and even let the river go directly into the Naren Desert, through the vast sand dunes, and directly to the sentry oasis where the "Drehem" is located, so that the two are connected to each other, completely and intimately.

If this is the case, it may take less than three days to travel back and forth between the two places.

The banks of the river will become oases.

Just like the banks of the Nile, a large number of riverside plants suitable for the survival of sandy land, as well as a large number of trees, are used to resist the erosion of the desert, and even reverse the erosion of the desert, forming a broader riverbank oasis.

Some are unrealistic.

But it was Kant's ambition.

His plan is to use the system mall to extract a large number of natural environments such as springs and lakes, and to complete the initial completion in 10 years, to establish the connection between the rivers and roads between the two places, and completely tie them together.

When the time comes, the southern part of the Naren Desert will be completely controlled by him.

With the big killer of river transport.

His heavily armed troops can reach both places at breakneck speed.

Or even reach any stretch of river between the two places to launch counterattacks and surprise attacks on the enemy.

This ambition, even if it is unrealistic, can be realized by Kant with systematic help, and for him who is still young, as long as he chooses to wait, the future will not be grim.

Occupy the right time, place and people, and time is on Kant's side!

………………

The village of "Aaron" is on track.

Kant handed over the power to James for the time being, and planned to start his return journey.

Fifty Swadia knights followed him back to Drehem, while Manid led his caravan with seven Mamluks and 20 desert robbers to the Rock Pass again.

40 bags of fine white salt are still on the back of dromedary camels.

The salt trade will continue this month.

Manid is now in charge of this task, and at the same time can purchase a large number of tools and food, and indirectly use the large silver coins he obtains, all of which will be turned into supplies, which will be transported back to "Drehem" and transferred to "Aaron", which is more needed, to speed up the development of this Rhodoc village.

To some extent, "Aaron" has much better room for development than "Drehem".

"Let's go."

Leaving the confines of the paved road, Kant led the team into the Narun Desert.

A scorching wave of air is coming.

Even though it was early in the morning, the smell made Kant, who was accustomed to the cool climate of the mountains, feel a burning and tormenting feeling, and even if he quickly became familiar with it, it still felt quite uncomfortable.

No one will like the brutal environment of the Narun Desert.

Shake your head slightly.

Kant shook the reins, and the group continued to ride their horses forward.

It took them a day and two nights to reach the station, and then they had to walk for another day and a night to finally reach the sentry oasis, and the time was still relatively tight.

Leave from the beginning of the month.

It's the end of the month.

Kant delayed the escalation of "Drehem".

After all, in the middle of the month, the fortress on this oasis can be upgraded to a castle.

Of course, the delay was well worth it from Kant's point of view.

The newly emerged village "Aaron" is already on the right track, and in his calculations, in a year's time, it will be able to feed back the military castle of "Drehem" on a large scale as a town.

When the time comes, the north and the south of the two sides will echo each other.

It's as indestructible as a horn.

And when it reaches a certain point, new villages will continue to appear.

After all, as the ruler of the southern part of the Narun Desert, nominally the lord of the entire Naren Desert, it is impossible for Kant's power to support these two points.

If possible, Kant would arrange for new villages to be built in the depths of the desert.

This was a preparation for future contact with the forces on the shores of Mannheim, and Kant would also put this plan on the agenda when he returned to "Drehem".

New systems appeared.

Or two.

Kant had not yet delved into it, but he was already deeply struck.

Because the emergence of the two systems brings two completely different extraordinary powers!

And it is these extraordinary powers that give him confidence, even if he touches the Mannheim coast in the north of the Naren Desert, he has the confidence to protect himself, and even in his own area in the south, he has the absolute initiative, even if it is the powerful Graymane Kingdom, once again organize the Gnoll Expeditionary Force to come and conquer, Kant is also confident that they will be defeated again between the sand dunes.

What's more, the results harvested in the Sanwaya Mountains this time are incomparably rich!

Sunset and sunrise.

Kant led the team back at great speed.

Soon came to the station.

Ten Swadian recruits hurried over to greet them, and the 40 desert bandits were all told to return on horseback, just to salute Kant and report the latest news.

They were the garrison that had just been stationed at the post station this month.

Scouting the desert on weekdays.

However, after Kant's arrival, the news they reported was not optimistic.

"What? A lot of scouts showed up in the desert? ”

Frowning slightly, Kant sat on a chair, holding a wooden bowl in his hand, and didn't care about drinking the cool well water, but asked the four desert robbers in front of him, "What's the matter, there are so many people?" I remember that before I left at the beginning of the month, no one seemed to come to the Narun Desert at all, right? ”

"That's true." The desert bandit replied, "We've already repelled three waves of self-proclaimed caravans, and once we almost went to war because they defied our dissuasion. ”

"It's coming fast enough."

Kant bowed his head slightly, his thoughts wandered, and he raised his head and praised: "You have done a good job. However, he still put down the wooden bowl, reached out and tapped on the table, and said, "Next, I will continue to mobilize some Salander riders to help, this is the only way to get to the sentry oasis, you should pay more attention to the situation around you." ”

"Understood." The desert robbers replied in a deep voice.
