Zhou Xu was still complaining in his heart before, that Chitose turned his head and went paralyzed again, but it didn't take long for him to follow in Chitose's footsteps.

The next morning, Zhou Xu, who woke up from a sleep, obviously recovered a bit. The first thing he did when he opened his eyes was to confirm Chitose's situation.

Although according to his previous experience, Chitose, who just swallowed the blood of the saber-toothed tiger yesterday, might not be able to wake up in a short time, but he still checked habitually.

On a new day, he has basically ordered all the things that should be ordered. Even if there is anything, you can go to Ye Jinghong or Li Ce. In general, he can solve most of the things.

At the moment, there is nothing that needs to be done by him as the leader himself. Zhou Xu's main task now is to rest. Now he is covered with an animal skin quilt, lying comfortably on the bed to be lazy.

Isn't this the reason for being a leader and raising a large group of subordinates?

If he has to do everything by himself, then what is the meaning of the existence of those subordinates?

But that doesn't mean he's all right.

After all, there are some things that Ye Jinghong and Li Ce really can't handle.

Just after noon, Ye Jinghong came to find him.

At this point in time, Zhou Xu had just returned from sleep, and couldn't fall asleep for a short time, and was paralyzed on the bed in a daze.

Hearing Li Shitou's report that Ye Jinghong had come, he put on his clothes and sat down at his desk.

"come in."

After getting permission, Ye Jinghong quickly opened the door and entered.

"leader."

"What's up?"

"It's about storing food in the village."

As soon as Ye Jinghong came in, he went straight to the point.

"I'm afraid we don't have enough food here."

"How could it not be enough?"

Zhou Xu frowned.

"The saber-toothed tiger's corpse was just disposed of yesterday, so it should have gotten a lot of meat, right?"

When the saber-toothed tiger was skinning and shaving yesterday, he had already gone to test the new combination of mantras. Afterwards, he was exhausted enough and went to bed early, so he was really not very clear about this matter.

At this moment, facing Zhou Xu's question, Ye Jinghong shook his head.

"The saber-toothed tiger is thin and skinny, and there is indeed some meat, but it is much less than we expected."

"In addition, the centaur family stayed with us before, which increased food consumption a lot."

"There are also those six little wolf cubs. Although they don't have much appetite, they all have to eat meat. After this meal, the number is actually quite a lot."

"According to the current situation, the food in the village can last up to five or six days."

Having said this, Ye Jinghong's voice paused.

"Should we reduce the food supply first, temporarily change it to one meal a day, and at the same time send soldiers to ride to Black Moon Village to bring food over."

Obviously, before talking about this matter, Ye Jinghong had already thought about the coping strategy, and this was indeed his style of handling things.

Knowing that the roads are now blocked by heavy snow in the field, and the wooden wheels cannot be turned at all, a proposal was made to let the soldiers ride back to bring food.

But to be honest, this is not a good idea, at most it is an emergency strategy. After all, the space on the horse's back is limited, and there is not much food at all.

According to his thinking, the soldiers don't have to do other things every day, just ride horses and run back and forth between the two villages.

You know, although the snow has stopped, the current temperature is not showing a trend of rising at all. The snow in the wild is so thick, who knows when it will melt away? This is a big problem affecting their transportation.

But he didn't seem too nervous about it.

Looking at the serious Ye Jinghong, he smiled and said...

"Don't worry, this matter can be resolved. Calculate the time, it should be the day after tomorrow."

"..."

In the blink of an eye, it was noon the day after tomorrow. Counting the time, Zhou Xu took Ye Jinghong to the outside of the village.

At this moment, the two were chatting without saying a word, and at this moment, there was a movement in the distance.

"coming."

Hearing this, Ye Jinghong subconsciously looked into the distance, the snow-covered ground was really dazzling under the sunlight, and Ye Jinghong squinted his eyes unconsciously.

Immediately afterwards, two horses equipped with harnesses broke into his eyes, which immediately made his eyes widen.

For Ye Jinghong, it was not unusual to see a fine horse. Wearing harness, it looked like it belonged to them.

Right now, the focus of his attention is on the back of the steed.

"Is that... a wooden cart?"

Ye Jinghong, who was muttering, vetoed himself before Zhou Xu could speak.

"Impossible, the snow in the field is so thick, the entire wheel has to be sunk in the snow, it is impossible to run, let alone run so fast..."

However, before Ye Jinghong finished speaking, the two horses pulling the cart were getting closer and closer, and soon, he couldn't believe it even if he wanted to.

"It's really a wooden cart?"

Ye Jinghong was taken aback for a moment, but then he noticed something was wrong.

"No, why doesn't this cart have wheels?"

At this moment, Ye Jinghong, who obviously couldn't turn his head around, couldn't help being a little dumbfounded.

The things in front of him were undoubtedly beyond his comprehension once again, which made him immediately cast a questioning look at their leader.

He didn't even need to guess that this must be something new from their leader.

As a person who has been following Zhou Xu since he crossed over, Ye Jinghong really knows all too well about their leader's ability to create novelty gadgets.

For a time he thought he would never be amazed at anything he saw again.

Facts have proved that he is still naive.

"This thing is called a sled, and it is a means of transportation specially used on snow."

While Zhou Xu was speaking, two transporters had already carried the sled and stopped not far away.

Zhou Xu took Ye Jinghong forward, pointed to the materials on the sled that had piled up into a hill, and introduced them slowly.

"The back of this sled is spacious and can store a large amount of supplies. Normally, a dozen or twenty cavalry might be required to carry the supplies, but now a sled can be easily put down."

Having said that, Zhou Xu paused.

"I saw the snow in the field before, so I guessed that there might be problems with the transportation of materials, so when the courier came over, I asked him to bring the design of the sled to Zhuang Mengdie, and let them speed up the production."

"When the courier came over two days ago, I knew the sled would be able to bring the supplies today."

"However, the saber-toothed tiger's meat production is so little, which is indeed beyond my expectation."
