The geography of the mountains and rivers, the distribution of resources, and the survival methods and environments of the various tribes and animals. These were all things that a ruler must know, or rather, know.
And …
In this foreign world with magic and magical creatures, the rulers must know about these dangerous magical creatures and those who possess magic.
That was why Li Ke was not satisfied with the map provided by Aichy. After all, although the map showed the general terrain, if one did not know about Freldrod and had never lived in the place marked on the map, then the sheepskin map that she provided could not be expected to be understood.
Yes, Li Ke really could not understand the map provided by Aichy. That was why he was so concerned about the tribe that traveled around.
"There are indeed such tribes. They do not have fixed territories, hunting grounds, or fixed homes. Sometimes, we call them wanderers."
Ai Xi nodded and stretched out her hand to catch a snowflake that was drifting down.
"Further north, due to the scarcity of food, the competition between hunting grounds is more intense than here. Because of this, many tribes that are not strong enough to compete for hunting grounds will choose to wander. They work for other tribes and sell their goods for a living." She crushed the snowflake, then pointed at a small knife on Li Ke's body.
But most of them are called the Nodeis. Compared to their goods, the singing, dancing, and laughter that they bring are what people like the most. So, after they perform, most people will choose to exchange for something … … Just like your meat cleaver, I used half a deer to exchange for it. "
Sounds like the Gypsies?
Li Ke crossed his arms, thinking of the people who were also good at singing and dancing, and who also brought goods to trade. However, their reputation was not good. Compared to the Gypsies who were not liked by the locals, these Nodeis seemed to be more popular?
Li Ke had a question, so he immediately asked.
"Seems like they will be very popular?"
Aichy nodded, a smile appearing on her face.
"Of course, most of the time, they are very welcome, except when there is a war … At that time, no one will welcome or trust outsiders. However, they are a well-informed tribe, so most of the time, they are able to avoid war. "
She tightened her cloak. Although the cold wind here was nothing to her, no one liked a place that was too cold. Even though she was an Ice People, she still preferred warm things.
"But because of this, some villages will think that they are cowards because of this. Therefore, they would be hostile to them. There were also some Matriarchs who felt that they could help in the invasion. So as a leader, I need to be on guard against them … although I actually like them very much. "
Aichy poured out her opinion like pouring beans, while Li Ke quietly listened to Aichy speak with a pleasant voice. Then, he slowly digested what she had revealed.
"Because most of the time, they can bring laughter, and sometimes they will bring messages from their relatives, as well as gifts from their friends. But sometimes, they are not welcome in tribes that are not hostile to them, but that is only under rare circumstances. "
After she finished speaking, she fell silent. Li Ke, on the other hand, was thinking about other things.
"Singing and dancing, do you like it very much?"
He saw that Aichy was obviously excited when talking about singing and dancing, so he asked such a question.
"It can't be said that I like it, but when I was young, I always looked forward to those Notai people coming over, because not only did I not have any Ice People sisters of the same age, but I also did not have children close to my age, so only at that time, I could play with other children."
Aichy did not think of her most precious friend Sejuani, but she looked at Li Ke and suddenly remembered that Li Ke came from Sejuani.
"If that's the case, don't worry, it will get better and better."
Li Ke nodded. As a former science student, after hearing Aichy say this, the first thing he thought of was not to comfort her, but to think of something more rational.
"It's still the lack of infrastructure and economic construction, and it directly leads to a serious lack of cultural and entertainment. It's the same on Earth. The Russians are still a little worse in entertainment. Sure enough, winter is the enemy of almost all industries. "
Thinking of the ethnic groups that can drink alcohol as a daily routine, Li Ke compared it with the Freldrod people in this respect, and then found that the similarities between the two ethnic groups were simply too many.
"So, the things that the Hairy Bears like, they are also likely to like? But what are the Hairy Bears rich in? "
Li Ke once again thought of something incredible, especially the reflection of the sickle hammer, which made Li Ke recall more things from Earth.
But because the cultural industry was not the most important thing to the Freldrod people, Li Ke put it aside like other things.
"Trade is good, so if it's possible, let's get one of these tribes to join us. Then, let's form a caravan with them and trade with the various tribes and countries."
Li Ke did not forget that technology was the primary productive force, and it was impossible for him to only grow potatoes in Freldrod, so caravans to Demacia, Pirtewoff, and Noxus were necessary.
And if it was not for the fact that he did not have anyone familiar with Ionia, he would also send people to Ionia to trade. After all, the fertility of the land there was already world-famous.
"No problem, there were some Nodeans who wanted to join us before, but it's a pity. My tribe was too poor at that time, and we had no way to feed them. So the matter was left unsettled. "
Li Ke nodded. He knew that it was best to leave this matter to Aichy.
"This matter is as important as the things we talked about before, so do it as soon as possible. If you can't find any Nodeans, then choose some people to do it."
But Li Ke did not know when the wandering Nodeans would come, so Li Ke ordered Aichy to form a caravan so that he could bring them out to trade.
"No problem … Oh right!"
Aichy nodded, then suddenly grabbed Li Ke's shoulder and put her face in front of him.
"You really don't need me to clean your sword?"
Li Ke's answer was decisive.
"No, thank you."
