Chapter 218 Yun Duo plans to build a market
The feeling of watching snow through the window and watching snow outside is different.
Chen Shiyue, who grew up in the south, had never seen such a beautiful scenery. The white snow seemed to cover the earth with a white blanket, and it was like a poem or a painting. Being in the snowy scene, it seemed that the soul was cleansed, as if one became as light as an elf.
Huanyue also saw everything outside in the space and felt equally excited: "Mom, what a beautiful snow scene."
Chen Shiyue was puzzled: "Haven't you seen snow before?"
Huanyue shook her head: "I am a newborn system elf. I am only one year old. My knowledge is just the knowledge stored in the system."
Although Huanyue said so, Chen Shiyue felt that things were not that simple. How could a new system elf have its own space? Huanyue's space was so large, with forests and grasslands, pavilions and towers, and there were blood-replenishing and qi-nourishing pills in the towers. Moreover, Huanyue had unique abilities, such as healing.
However, there is one thing Chen Shiyue can be sure of, Huanyue is indeed a relatively immature consciousness. This can be seen from the fact that it calls itself mother. If it is a mature consciousness, it will definitely not call itself that.
"Mom, please collect some snow into the space. I want to play with snow too." Huanyue's childish voice sounded in Chen Shiyue's mind.
Bending down, he touched the snow with his hands. Although it was freezing cold, it felt fresh and exciting. Carefully collecting a lot of the snow on the surface into the space, Huanyue excitedly ran around on the snow.
Chen Shiyue couldn't help but ask: "Baby Huanyue, if the snow in the space melts, will the floor be soaked?"
Huanyue laughed out loud: "Mother, you think this is an ordinary floor. Besides, the space is frozen, and the snow in the space will not melt."
Won't it melt? Then she would collect more snow and put it in the space, and take it out when the weather gets hot. Thinking of this, Chen Shiyue was very excited. However, last night was the first snow, and it would definitely snow frequently in the future, so she didn't need to rush to collect snow.
Chiqiu and Di Bo stood at the kitchen window and watched Sister Shiyue playing on the street. The two boys were a little confused. Sister Shiyue seemed to have never seen snow. What was going on?
"Shiyue, why are you playing in the snow? Aren't you cold?" Li ran out from the house next door.
Chen Shiyue looked at Li. She was wearing two tops, a pink sweater inside and a yellow animal skin coat outside, paired with animal skin pants and animal skin shoes. Her brown hair was loose, and she looked mature and sexy.
Behind Li, there was a small yellow tiger, jumping and hopping. Behind the small yellow tiger was a big yellow tiger.
"Hello, teacher!" The little yellow tiger ran over happily, and then stopped in front of Chen Shiyue.
Chen Shiyue bent down and touched the warm tiger fur: "Did Yangchen stay at home last night?"
The little yellow tiger nodded: "Yes, Mom and Dad said they missed me and asked me to come back home sometimes." The cute look made Chen Shiyue's heart soften.
Li picked up Yang Chen and threw him to the big yellow tiger: "Hurry up and send him to the cub garden. He has to go to class later."
"Mom, you are not gentle at all." Yang Chen protested, but landed steadily on the big yellow tiger.
The big yellow tiger Yangguang said, "Then I'll take the cubs to the nursery." As he spoke, he stepped briskly on the snow.
Li kicked the snow on the ground: "Shiyue, thank you. If you hadn't come, we wouldn't have such a good life. In the past, we didn't have enough to eat in the winter, and we didn't have clothes, pants or shoes. We were cold and hungry, and we could only hide in the cave. Now, not only can we eat enough, but we can also eat well and wear warm clothes. We females can also go out and move around. I think there is no need to stop the trading center and the garment factory. They can be reopened."
"I think so too." Suddenly, Lelan's voice sounded from the other side.
Chen Shiyue turned around and saw Lelan walking towards her, followed by an elegant big snow leopard.
Lelan's dress was similar to Li's, except that she wore black animal skins. She always liked black.
"Madam City Lord." The big snow leopard greeted in a low voice.
Chen Shiyue smiled and said, "Lord Anda, good morning. I heard that you have been cooking for the whole family every day recently. You must be working hard."
The big snow leopard was a little embarrassed: "Thank you for the compliment, Madam City Lord. I learned it all from Chi Qing."
Lie Lan: "Shiyue, why don't you call the sisters to work in the factory? Otherwise, it will be too boring to have nothing to do at home."
Chen Shiyue shook her head: "In fact, even if we start working, there won't be that much work. We still don't have enough supplies right now. In the cold season, sheep and beasts can't be sheared. We only have the cotton that Yinfeng and the others brought back. We might as well give some to the females who want to work and take them home to do it. Everyone can sit in a warm house and work. They won't be cold or bored."
Lelan's eyes lit up: "Shiyue, your idea is very good. We don't have to work in the factory. The factory is not as warm as home. I will go and tell the females that those who want to work can take the cotton back. Anda, take me for a walk."
The big snow leopard squatted down and let Lelan climb up.
Lelan waved his hand and said, "I'll go directly to the nursery later and won't be late for class." Then he rode away on the big snow leopard.
At this time, Wally shouted at the door: "Li, come back for breakfast."
Li smiled and asked, "Shiyue, do you want to come to my house for breakfast?"
Chen Shiyue was puzzled: "Why didn't I see Yan Yi?"
Li said in a doting tone, "I heard that the city lord and his men were researching looms at the furniture factory and couldn't stay at home anymore. They disappeared early in the morning."
"Sister Shiyue, our breakfast is ready." Chiqiu shouted from the window.
Chen Shiyue waved to Xiang Li and walked home.
After returning to the house, Chen Shiyue realized that her hands and feet were cold, so she hurried to the stove to warm herself up. After a while, she felt her whole body warm again.
After breakfast, Chen Shiyue took a carriage to the nursery. There were two classes a day, one for the cubs and one for the big beasts. Thinking about checking the homework of the big beasts today, she couldn't help but look forward to it. What kind of homework would the big beasts submit?
At this time, on the green grassland, a group of orcs were clearing the snow on the road with brooms.
Today's green grassland is no longer what it used to be. Near the cave, neatly arranged wooden houses have been built, and near the periphery, there are houses under construction.
In the yard of a relatively large wooden house in the middle, Huangshan was clearing the snow. On the clean ground, Yun Duo, dressed in ancient animal skin clothes, walked back and forth holding the tightly wrapped female cub.
"Little cub, be good, don't cry or make a fuss..."
Huangshan swept all the snow into the corner, rubbed his hands to warm them up, and then reached out to take the little female cub.
As Yun Duo handed the cub to Huang Shan, she asked, "Aren't you going to help build the house?"
Huang Shan nodded: "I'll go later. I'll hold the baby for a while."
The little female cub reached out and scratched her father's rough face, babbling a few times.
Huang Shan said softly, "Duoduo, are you cold? Why don't you go back to the house?"
Yun Duo shook her head: "It's not cold. When the sun comes out soon, I'll take my cub out here to bask in the sun."
Huang Shan looked at the existing houses around him and said, "Duoduo, now that we have built so many houses, we won't have enough space to hold a trade fair before the winter season."
Yun Duo tilted her head and thought for a while: "We don't need to hold the trade fair in such a large place as before. It's a waste of space. After the houses for the tribesmen are built, we will build a market and hold the trade fair in the market. After the market is built, in addition to the large trade fair, we can also conduct transactions on ordinary days."
Huang Shan was surprised: "What is a market? How do you know all this?"
Yun Duo smiled and said, "These are what Sister Shiyue taught me in Mandarin. Ah Shan, Sister Shiyue's origin is very mysterious. She must be from a very powerful tribe, so she knows so much. In Mandarin, it is said that the market is a long, wide and flat passage with buildings connected on both sides of the passage. The first floor of the building is a shop, which is used for trading. The upper floors of some buildings are also used for trading. In this way, there is no need for such a large open space, and it will be enough for orcs from many tribes to participate in the trade?"
Huang Shan nodded in shock: "This market sounds very good. I guess Yaocheng may have already built a market."
Yun Duo: "It's possible, so we have to build a market as soon as possible. Yaocheng will mainly be a place for carnivorous beastmen to attend gatherings, and Qingcheng will mainly be a place for herbivorous beastmen to attend gatherings. Of course, we can also attend each other's gatherings."
Huang Shan looked longingly: "Duoduo, the world has become different since this winter. Everything is getting better. I can't even imagine what it will be like in the future."
Yun Duo also looked longing: "In the future, the city will become very prosperous, and the number of orcs and females will be much greater than it is now. We don't have to worry about not being able to feed the female cubs anymore, because in the cold season, everyone will have enough food and clothes, and there will be fire that will not be extinguished."
Huang Shan gently hugged his partner and the cub: "Yes, Duoduo, we need to have more cubs. We have too few family members."
Yun Duo blushed and nodded. She was looking forward to having her children around her.
"City Lord, Madam Yun Duo, can I come in? I would like to ask Madam Yun Duo how to make animal leather boots." Outside the yard, the tall Miao shouted while holding a piece of animal leather.
Huang Shan kissed his partner on the cheek, handed the female cub to his partner and said, "I'm leaving." Then he opened the door of the yard and let Miao in.
