Don't mess with that dragon

Chapter 448 Market Formation
As the Dragon Nest tribe entered the stage of solid foundation and laying a solid foundation for development and construction, the main combat energy of the Dragon Nest Legion was spent on railway construction and the elimination of monsters in the territory.

The war of external expansion has basically ceased.

The orc tribes close to the territory of the Dragon Nest, unless they dared to offend the tigers of the Dragon Nest tribe, were basically not in danger of survival.

In fact, the orc tribe living on the border of the Dragon Nest territory has a very clear understanding of this behemoth. When the Dragon Nest tribe did not speak, they did not even dare to have conflicts and wars at will, so as not to offend the person who was standing next to him. A sleeping behemoth.

As a result, with the powerful strength of the Dragon Nest tribe, this area near the border area, in this chaotic Kava forest, appears to be extremely peaceful.

It's not that no tribe intends to migrate away to escape the threat of the Dragon's Nest tribe.

It's just that they simply don't want to part with this relatively safe environment.

Due to the suppression of the Dragon Nest Legion, those powerful giant beasts, monsters, and monsters around the territory of the Dragon Nest were swept away by the Dragon Nest Army, and those large dangerous species basically disappeared.

Compared with the dangerous outside world, it is obviously safer to live near the border.

and,

Due to the intimidation of the Dragon Nest tribe, compared to the chaotic chaos in the outside world, this place is peaceful.

In the Great Kava Forest, which was in chaos after the war, now the war is raging, all the troops are defeated, and the wars between the orc tribes continue. Where is there a peaceful and stable place?

Even if they wanted to escape from the huge shadow of the Dragon Nest tribe, in order to survive, they had to hold their noses and stay nearby.

You can only be a monk ringing the clock for one day.

These wild orc tribes attached to the edge of the Dragon Nest tribe's territory can actually be regarded as part of the Dragon Nest tribe's population reserve.

Although the Dragon Nest Legion did not expand outward due to the development plan, there were still many wild orcs who couldn't help but cross the border and went to the nearest stronghold city to seek refuge and join the Dragon Nest tribe.

The abundance of materials of the Dragon Nest Tribe has already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Some small orc tribes that are closer, because their own strength is too weak, sometimes cannot hunt and collect enough time in the forest, so they learn how the Dragon Nest tribe opened up wasteland and farmed, and they also learned how to open up around the tribe. A field with some crops grown on it.

Of course, compared to the professionalism of the Dragon Nest tribe, the planting of these orcs is much rougher.

Cut down the surrounding trees directly, burn the surrounding weeds with a fire, dig a hole, sow the seeds directly, and usually do not care much, and harvest when they grow up. This is the original version of slash-and-burn cultivation. .

This crude planting method is naturally far from the large-scale standardized operations of the Dragon Nest Tribe.

Due to the crops, farming methods, care levels, etc., these wild orc tribes made four different plantings to open up wasteland, and the output was less than one-fifth of the output of the same area of ​​​​the Dragon Nest tribe.

But even so, for these wild orc tribes, it is already very good.

It took a little two or three days to harvest nearly ten days' rations, which had a great positive effect on these small orc tribes struggling to survive in the wild.

At the same time, these orc tribes who survived on the border of the Dragon Nest tribe also learned to trade with the Dragon Nest orcs without a teacher.

It is impossible to test when it started.

Anyway, with the passage of time, some non-governmental transactions began spontaneously, and then the scale has been expanding.

For example, some wild orcs went hunting in the deep mountains, collected unknown magic plants, new food plant seeds, ores mined from deep mountains and old forests.
Although the Dragon Nest tribe is large, some mineral resources and magic plant resources are distributed in a wide range of forests and lands, and they are not very concentrated. It is too cost-effective to mobilize all the people to go out to collect.

And these raw materials are also needed by the Dragon Nest Tribe, but it is impossible to spend a lot of effort to collect them.

The orc tribes in the wild, when they go out hunting, they will always encounter some unknown ore magic plants, and the transaction naturally begins, gradually forming a trading market.

After several years of accumulation, the Dragon Nest Tribe has abundant food and supplies, and using food as a trading currency is obviously an incomparable temptation for those wild orcs who are still struggling with food and clothing.

In order to facilitate the transaction, a simple place was specially opened up for official purchases in the Dragon Nest tribe's stronghold city on the border.

The nearby orc tribes, after hunting and collecting unknown ores and magic plants, often go to the trading market in the stronghold city to directly trade with the dragon nest tribe orcs in exchange for food, and then bring them back to the tribe.

Later, with the progress and development of the transaction, more orcs came to trade with the Dragon Nest tribe, and some wild tribes would also trade their needs nearby, forming a crude market in the place where the official purchase was made.

A marketplace where transactions take place.

It's not just the trade between orcs in the wild, some residents in the pioneering city will also come to exchange some rare fruits or other things in the forest.

Although the Dragon Nest Tribe is still dominated by the military and political system, with the development of the Long Nest Tribe, some control over the people has been relaxed to a certain extent.

Especially when the Longchao tribe is extremely rich in food and materials, as long as they are not too lazy, they basically have food in reserve.

In Kava Forest, food is the hardest currency.

Regarding the formation of the trading market, the officials of the Dragon Nest Tribe did not stop it. Instead, they sent several Dragon Nest orcs to patrol and manage the market to prevent accidents.

The formation of the trading market has brought prosperity to the frontier of the Dragon Nest Tribe.

Through the trading market, the Dragon Nest Tribe collected a lot of precious ores and magic plants in a simple way, which played an important role in the alchemy industry and the growth of the Dragon Nest Tribe.

At the same time, relying on the trading market, the orc tribes in the wild also obtained a lot of food from the Dragon Nest tribe.

Relying on these unexpected grains, the arrival of the cold winter does not have to be too difficult.

When the weather is dry, prey is rare, and fruits are rare, some orc tribes will even go to the deep mountains to dig ore, transport it to the stronghold city of the Dragon Nest tribe to exchange food, and pass the difficult time.

It has to be said that the existence of the trading market is also one of the important reasons why the orc tribes living in the wild near the border of the Dragon Nest tribe are unwilling to migrate.
