Yang Yi decided that open classes would be arranged during the trade fair, and each tribe or team would have five people to attend the class together in the school classroom.

However, pens and paper are not provided, and textbooks are only borrowed.

It's not that Yang Yi is stingy, it's that they don't have enough textbooks. Every textbook is reused, and after entering a higher school, it will be left for the next level of students.

Tribal papermaking and printing are just beginning, the efficiency is not high, and what can be produced is very limited.

Paper is also a hard currency, and most of it is used to exchange for necessities such as food, so the tribe does not keep much for themselves.

As the news spread, many tribes that had originally planned to leave stayed behind.

Even the caravan that was anxious to bring back the news of the Maple Leaf City caravan stayed behind and temporarily put this matter behind.

"Everyone is very enthusiastic, and they all want to know what the gods will teach, and what makes the Xinghuo tribe develop so quickly." Han Bing said.

Yang Yi nodded. Although these natives have low productivity, they are very clear-headed.

Even the orcs with a relatively high proportion of being tired of studying are very aware of this, but they really can't do it themselves and hope that others can do it for them.

Since the Orcs were arranged for universal education, more and more Beasts are actively looking for people from the Eastern Continent.

They all pin their hopes on their partners and children, so they can be lazy...

"Are there enough seats in the classroom?"

"A lot of people are standing, saying that only five are accepted, and most of the tribes have mixed in over the quota." Han Bing said this a little bit dumbfounding.

Seeing his strange expression, Yang Yi asked curiously, "What happened?"

"Some orcs sold their 'places'."

"..."

Yang Yi Fuer, who said that the orcs have no brains, lo and behold, they have only been in business for a few days, and they are so good at using the resources at hand.

"Someone told me before that they were willing to take the initiative to give up their position. I didn't agree. I didn't expect them to do so." Han Bing was very helpless, "Now Yun Qing is so angry that he is jumping."

Yun Qing is the principal of the school and is responsible for the tribal educational activities.

In the past, he was the most literati person in the tribe, personable, gentle, and indeed very studious and smart

But since the orc man entered the school, his painting style has changed, and his lion roar is often heard.

"Let's think about how to solve this problem later." Yang Yi didn't know how to evaluate it.

Other tribal people still want to mix in and listen, some orc people still want to skip class, they really want to be hated to death.

"How's the feedback from the public class?"

Han Bing beamed brightly: "Everyone is asking when we will open the school, so that they have the opportunity to come in and study. They all expressed their kindness, hoping to be the first batch."

After all, the Xinghuo tribe is a new tribe, and its rapid development is not to be underestimated, but it is also scary.

After the open class, many tribes were more willing to get close to the Xinghuo tribe, which achieved the effect Yang Yi wanted.

At the end of the trade fair, many tribes left reluctantly, and almost every tribe took a copy of the multiplication formula before leaving.

The pronunciation of the numbers here is different from that in Chinese. In order to make it easier for everyone to recite the formula, Yang Yi used the Chinese pronunciation when teaching mathematics.

At first, the other tribes were not used to it, but when they left now, they basically got used to the change.

Numbers have been used in transactions, and everyone has basically learned how to write numbers, and the default is the general number writing.

"The food brought by this trade will allow the tribe not to worry about the lack of food until the next harvest."

Yang Yi looked at the report handed over and said excitedly.

There were so many people in the tribe suddenly, and there were too few people who participated in the farming before, and the food they got was not enough for the newcomers.

Now the food problem has basically been solved. There is no guarantee that I will be full, but it is still possible to survive starvation.

Seeing him happy, Hei Lie couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth:

"We can still go hunting in winter. We have harvested a lot of animal skins and cotton. The cold will not affect our going out."

Yang Yi was still immersed in joy, the result was much better than he expected before.

Those papers, pottery, and wine are all very popular, and everyone is willing to exchange for them with high prices.

When Yang Yi considered how much wine to make before, he was quite conservative, worried that too much grain would be used to make wine, which would lead to an oversupply.

The price of a jar of wine is very expensive, which can be described as huge profits.

Facts have proved that Yang Yi underestimated the people here's pursuit of wine or a better life.

Most tribes are very generous and don't mind exchanging a lot of items for so little that doesn't fill their stomachs.

"Qing said that some cold-resistant vegetables can still be grown in winter, and with the addition of greenhouses, I think we can have a good year with peace of mind this year."

Yang Yi walked up and down the room excitedly. Before that, he was very worried that the tribe would not be able to support such a large number of people.

Once you start to starve, it's easy to let this newly built, mixed-up tribe fall apart.

Now that the crisis has passed, Yang Yi has relaxed a lot.

When he reflected on it later, he was still a little too aggressive, and it was easy to bury hidden dangers.

For example, the previous attack was caused by the inability to effectively identify so many people in one go.

At that time, there were probably nearly 2,000 spies hidden in the entire tribe. If it weren't for the fact that the orcs had nothing to do with the people from the East and West, they were trustworthy, and the loss would have been much greater than it is now.

The management of the tribe also owed to Black Hunter and the more reliable talents he selected, otherwise it would not be so smooth.

"The focus of winter can be on manufacturing. After the snow melts next year, there will be tribes and caravans sending us items." Black Hunter said.

Yang Yi nodded: "We need to plant more food next year, otherwise it's still too dangerous."

"In winter, we can store a little more snow and prepare for irrigation in the coming year."

When Yang Yi heard the question about water, his excitement dissipated a lot.

The tribe currently relies on groundwater, and water resources are relatively abundant, but Yang Yi feels that it cannot always rely on groundwater.

There are a lot of them, and long-term dependence on groundwater is not an option.

In particular, this is not a dry place. They still need to vigorously develop agriculture and small handicrafts, and groundwater alone is insufficient.

At present, the tribe is still in the development period, and this trade fair has also attracted some tribes who have the intention to seek refuge.

Jing and the others only brought back a small number of people at the beginning. If the place where the Banshan tribe is located is impossible for people to survive, there may be a large wave of people flocking here.

In the long run, the development is still very limited depending on the supply of groundwater alone.

"Why are you frowning, what are you thinking of?" Hei Lie stroked Yang Yi's brows gently with his hands, trying to smooth them out.

Yang Yi expressed his worries: "Although there is no big problem now, I still think it is not safe."

"If you don't have long-term considerations, you must have near-term worries. You are very reasonable to worry about."

Black Hunt put out a map, which was measured and drawn by Han Bing.

Although the level of cartography is still relatively low, the overall roughness is not fine enough, but there is no problem with the approximate proportion, orientation, distance, etc.

"This is a tributary of the wilderness river. It belongs to the junction of two big rivers. The river is average in width but the water flow is very fast and has abundant water sources."

Yang Yi looked at it, and according to the scale of the map, it would probably take two or three days for ordinary people to get there from the tribe at a relatively fast speed.

"You mean, dig a canal?"

"Yes, according to my observation, the terrain of this river is slightly higher than that of our tribe. Because the water flow of this river is relatively fast, the animals drink less water here, and the river water is relatively clean."

"The terrain is high?" Yang Yi rubbed his chin: "If water is brought to the tribe, water conservancy can be used for manufacturing, which can save a lot of manpower."

"From the river along the road to the tribe, there is a plain with loose soil, and there are no trees blocking it, so it will be easy to dig."

Yang Yi thought of something, and his eyes lit up: "If this canal is dug, it will be easier to introduce fish fry?"

Hei Lie couldn't help laughing: "Of course, there are a lot of fish in the two big rivers in the wilderness. You can see that every time we return with a full load. You have never tasted the taste of fresh fish, and the taste of freshly slaughtered fish is very delicious."

The fish in the wilderness river are very fierce, even the net Yang Yi brought couldn't catch them, they would be bitten to pieces.

Hunting teams now use archery to kill. The arrows are tied with ropes and shot directly. The arrows are hooked, so it is easier to pull them ashore.

Although this method is not as large as a net of fish, the efficiency is still very high.

There are really too many fish in it, much more than the animals on the wasteland, and some of them are very big. Although they are fierce, as long as they don't go into the water, this group of fish will have nothing to do, and they are relatively safe.

"This is a big project." Yang Yi sighed, such a long distance, only relying on shovel after shovel to dig, it feels like a long time.

Hei Lie disagreed: "It's not a big deal, it happens that many people have nothing to do in this cold season, so take this opportunity to exercise their muscles and bones."

During the cold season, many of his jobs had to be slowed down or stagnated. Although the manufacturing and processing industry needed a lot of people, the number of skilled workers was limited and the scale would be limited.

Therefore, like many places on Earth, the cold season is a season for everyone to rest, whether it is the Eastern Continent or the Western Continent.

In places that are more affluent, the food hoarded during the harvest season is consumed in winter, and only occasionally will they go out for food when the weather is good.

In barren areas, there will be much less going out in the cold season than usual, otherwise it will be too easy to freeze to death or frostbite.

"I'm afraid the ground will be frozen in the cold season?"

It is already zero at night, and it will only get colder in the cold season, and the possibility of the ground being frozen is very high.

"No matter how hard it is, it will not be harder than iron."

Yang Yi was very moved, so that winter can also be used.

There will be a lot more spare manpower in winter than usual. Now that the tribe has more than 20,000 people, it is not difficult to form a team of tens of thousands.

Although there are not enough iron tools, stone tools and bronze tools can be used for digging canals.

In this way, the canal can be dug quickly. According to the abnormality of the people here, they will definitely be able to dig through next year.

"We won't be said to be Zhou Paipi, will we?"

Other tribes are resting in winter, and their tribe is still very busy, so they really don't give them any time off.

Hei Lie laughed: "If you don't arrange it like this, there will be problems."

"why?"

"Eat and drink enough and have nothing to do, and the excess energy can't be vented. At that time, except for sleeping time, the martial arts arena must be full at other times."
