Lord Survival: Start with planks to build an island empire

Xia Xin's team soon arrived at the place where the orcs gathered. After arriving, Xia Xin unexpectedly discovered that this gathering place did not have a camp wall like other gathering places. The entire gathering place was surrounded by mountains. above the wall.

In Xia Xin's eyes, there was this hole on the mountain wall. The hole was not big and could only accommodate one person.

Xia Xin frowned as he looked at the scene in front of him. How could he attack such a gathering place?

They are all in caves, and these caves can only accommodate one person. This is extremely detrimental to the battle of myself and others. I can't destroy the entire mountain, right?

At this moment, a man suddenly emerged from a cave. He was a little wary after seeing Xia Xin and others, but he was still kind.

"What are you doing?"

Naturally, Xia Xin would not say that he came to attack them, so he had to tell a lie.

"We were out hunting. When we passed by here, we saw so many caves on the mountain wall. We were curious, so we stayed to observe."

"Really?" The man stood in the distance and looked at Xia Xin suspiciously: "Then why can't I see your prey?"

Xia Xin took out a deer carcass from the storage ring. It was one of the monsters he hunted along the way. It was stored in the storage ring just for lunch.

After seeing Xia Xin take out the deer carcass out of thin air, although the man was very surprised, he relaxed his guard a lot.

The man looked at the deer carcass in Xia Xin's hand, rolled his eyes and said, "Do you want to exchange your deer carcass?"

Xia Xin was stunned, not expecting that the other party would make such a request.

"Do you have anything valuable here?" Xia Xin asked.

"Salt and ore, what do you want?"

Xia Xin expected the presence of ore, but the presence of salt was unexpected.

The current salt in Xia Xin's territory is basically purchased from Wancheng Store. Salt is not expensive and is very durable. Even if the territory has thousands of people, it will not cost much.

However, Xia Xin did not plan to keep purchasing salt. His next development plan was to expand southward, control the vast territory to the seaside, and then manufacture salt by himself on the seaside.

Unexpectedly, my plan has not yet been implemented, and now I have found the source of the salt.

Xia Xin's head turned and an idea came to him.

Since it is difficult to attack this gathering place by yourself, why not trade with the other party?

Looking at the other party's needs, it is obvious that the other party needs food. You can completely exchange food with the other party to obtain ore and salt.

In this way, except that these people cannot increase the population of the territory, they are no different from the citizens of their own territory.

After all, now his subjects are only responsible for their own food and accommodation, and then let them work for themselves and provide income.

"I want them all." Xia Xin looked at the other party and said, "But I want to see the goods first!"

"Of course, you come with me, the others are waiting here." the other party said.

"Okay, but I have to take her with me!" Xia Xin gestured to Xia Qingdai.

The man looked at Xia Qingdai's appearance and nodded in agreement.

Xia Xin hugged Xia Qingdai and approached the other party. Only when he got close to the other party did Xia Xin realize that the other party was different from ordinary orcs.

Ordinary orcs are actually exactly the same as humans except for their animal ears and tail. However, the orc in front of him has no animal ears on his head and is exactly the same as a human.

However, the opponent's feet and palms retained the appearance of the orcs, which were thick and had sharp claws, and there was a thick fleshy tail covered with gray scales on his back.

Xia Xin took a look at the other party's information.

"My name is Xia Xin, what do you call me?" Xia Xin looked at the acupuncture point and asked knowingly.

"My name is Jiaxuan." Jiaxuan said, "Come on, come with us."

Xia Xin and Xia Qingdai followed Jiaxun up the steps dug into the mountain wall and walked up. After that, Axu said, "Come in with me."

After saying that, A-point went directly into the cave. Xia Xin took a look and realized that the cave was diagonally downward, and A-point slid down directly.

Xia Xin was not afraid. He stretched out his feet and slid down first. Before leaving, he asked Xia Qingdai to follow.

After Xia Xin slipped down, he experienced a period of darkness. When he saw the light, he had already exited the passage. Following closely behind, Xia Qingdai also followed in and bumped into Xia Xin.

"Hey, Master, it hurts so much." Xia Qingdai rubbed her little face with both hands and said aggrievedly.

Xia Xin turned around and picked up Xia Qingdai, and then carefully observed the environment he was in.

He fell on a piece of yellow cotton wool and felt no pain at all.

He looked around. There were some other passages and cotton wool nearby, surrounded by a three-meter-high, square space, with a shimmering stone at the top.

"Let's go! I'll take you to see our clan leader." Jiaxue looked at Xia Xin and said.

Xia Xin nodded and followed Acupoint into a passage that only allowed two people to pass. After walking about 10 meters, Xia Xin walked out of the passage.

The scene that appeared in front of Xia Xin made Xia Xin extremely surprised.

A huge empty space is supported by stone pillars more than 10 meters high. In the huge space, there are various stone houses, some connected to the mountain wall next to it, and some sitting alone on the ground.

On the mountain walls around the entire cave and on the stone pillars in the middle, there are luminous stones inlaid one by one. Most of them emit white fluorescence, and a small number of them emit other colors. They are colorful and the entire space is illuminated. Extremely beautiful!

"It's so beautiful, so spectacular!" Xia Xin couldn't help but sigh: "This is really something wonderful!"

Xia Xin looked behind him. There was the passage he came out of, and he couldn't help but admire the designer of this cave!

After all, if an enemy attacks, they can only come out in twos from that passage, which makes it much easier to deal with them.

"Haha, this isn't that big yet. Our clan leader said that we will expand it in the future!" A cave said with some pride.

Soon, Xia Xin and the two of them followed Jiaxun and walked inside. Along the way, Jiaxuan greeted the surrounding Shanjia tribesmen from time to time.

"Brother Jiaxue, is this the person the guard found?" said a young Shanjia man.

"Yeah, but they don't mean any harm, and they even agreed to trade food with us!" Jiaxun responded casually.

After bidding farewell to the young man, Xia Xin asked Acupoint: "How did your guards discover us?"
