Chapter 2038 Ice Age

Another twenty years have passed.

Wen Rensheng's tribe had a population of 20,000.

"Your Majesty, are you still alive?" Little Wang Beibei ran over and asked.

He was dead, and he was reincarnated into a little ape and came to find him again.

"Hmm." Wen Rensheng wrote lightly, and then looked at a piece of glass. It was translucent and very turbid. There was still a lot of room for improvement before it was a real glass.

"Boss, when will you die?"

"Why ask this question?"

"Because I also want to be a king."

"Then you're overthinking." Wen Rensheng said angrily.

Little Wang Beibei looked at the glass in his hand angrily.

"What's the use of making glass? We have no place to sell it and no one will buy it. It's more reliable to make cement." Xiao Wang Beibei was obviously confused.

"With your little wisdom, for you to become the king, the tribe must collapse." Wen Rensheng said with disdain.

His wisdom allowed him to know early on the importance of glass making to historical milestones.

After all, in this primitive era, the real danger has not yet come.

And he had already prepared for those crises.

His physique is the pinnacle of human beings. Although he is not an ape, he can live for at least 150 years.

It's still too early for him to be reincarnated.

The average ape can only live up to 50 years.

He doesn't worry about lifespan.

Then the tribe encountered new problems.

Another tribe of barbarians came to attack.

Ask them to hand over half of the salt and grain.

This is obviously impossible, just start fighting.

After two years of fighting, the barbarian tribe was reduced to slavery.

They are not time travellers, they are all real primitive people.

This made the time travelers very happy and quickly evolved the tribal form into slavery.

Who doesn’t want to have a few slaves who can work?

Who wants to do housework?

Except for chefs, slaves filled every industry.

Those who farm, those who build roads, those who sweep the land, those who herd cattle.

Those who traveled through time focused on force.

The entire tribe subconsciously evolved towards the offensive Spartans.

But Wen Rensheng understood that Sparta was not a stable state.

Moreover, if you only know how to fight, it is easy to lose your true power.

Because as long as the other party flees a few times, your own society will collapse.

So he improved the social form in advance, allowing those people to still maintain the manpower allocation in the main industries.

For example, agriculture, handicrafts, and commerce all require human resources.

Build granaries, reservoirs, and deep cellars.

Explore the terrain everywhere, including building ships and going to sea to find other land.

In short, I will continue to open maps while making reserves.

Some people think that it is enough to live a small life with peace of mind, so why go to such trouble.

Wen Rensheng has only one evaluation of this kind of person: short-sighted.

Ten years later.

The real crisis has arrived.

After arriving, everyone was trembling.

It's cold, not scary.

Because this crisis is the Ice Age.

Animals fled one after another and migrated toward the warmer equator.

Heat and drought are better than cold.

Because if it's hot, it means there's enough energy.

Once you enter the glacier, you will be dead. The sunlight will be reflected and the climate will become colder and colder.

Until the movement of the earth's crust releases a large amount of heat and carbon dioxide, creating a new greenhouse.

And here they are already in the subtropics.

It's not too far from the equator.

Fortunately, Wen Rensheng had already made various preparations.

One is to move some people towards the equator to see if it is hot enough.

The second is to send another group of people to settle near an active volcano crater that has been explored.

Although we have to risk the volcanic eruption and be buried into the city of Pompeii, we can get through it for the time being.

"It's strange. There is still sunlight, so how can the earth get colder?" Little Wang Beibei asked in confusion.

"Of course it's because there is not enough carbon dioxide and there are too many green plants, which absorb too much carbon dioxide, thus weakening the greenhouse effect and triggering the Ice Age." Wen Rensheng casually gave a reason.

Of course, this is just a superficial reason. The real reason is the difficulty of creating historical nodes and is copied based on the disasters that occurred in history.

There have been many ice ages in history, and this is not fiction.

This also led to the premature demise of the Ming Dynasty.

"Can you survive in a volcanic area?" asked little Wang Beibei.

"There are hot springs in volcanic areas, and crops can be grown where there are hot springs."

"Then how will those of us left here survive?"

"We can grow mushrooms, cut down trees, and use wood to grow mushrooms. There are many plants that will freeze to death, enough for people like us to survive for a hundred years." Wenren said calmly.

At the same time, the migrating people, the vanguard, released the carrier pigeons.

It's also very cold at the equator, even colder.

Don't know what the reason is.

Their large army stopped and were rushing back.

On the other hand, active volcanoes are hotter and have many hot springs.

They can survive.

There are still many forests with green buds sprouting out, and they ask people from the mother tribe to migrate over quickly.

It's just that the volcano moves frequently and erupts frequently, with thick smoke billowing from it.

But Wen Rensheng did not move near the volcano, but only established ice tunnels in the two places.

Transport using sleds and ice tracks.

Transport wood from near the active volcano, as well as some grown vegetables and grain.

The temperature is getting lower and lower, and people begin to rely on fuel to live.

But Wen Rensheng stopped them.

Instead, they used the previously stored colored glass to dig out cellars and build greenhouses.

Let the tribesmen live in underground greenhouses.

Fortunately, in the past few years, everyone has been eating equally and drying the food.

Cereals and meat have become extremely dry and can be stored for 50 years.

Now that the temperature is low again, the storage time is longer.

Everyone eats very little every day to barely survive.

Wen Rensheng organized people to continue digging the cellar, and dug a very deep cellar.

Before, the land was too soft, so it was impossible to dig the cellar too deep, and water could easily be seen.

The weather is so cold now that the ground 20 meters underground is frozen.

Wen Rensheng suspected that he had entered permafrost.

I heard that there is permafrost in the Arctic Circle that does not melt all year round.

This permafrost is very solid and needs to be roasted with fire before it can be dug out.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After digging, it is impossible to collapse.

After sprinkling water, it becomes an ice wall.

Wen Rensheng used distilled water to obtain clean and transparent ice to make a greenhouse, and he also made a double greenhouse.

The uppermost layer of the cellar is covered with ice to receive sunlight and ensure that the temperature is close to 0 degrees.

Generally it can reach minus fifteen degrees.

Use colored glaze for the second layer.

The temperature reached in the glass cellar can reach more than 5 degrees.

This temperature is still not enough.

He started to light the fire again, ensuring that the temperature was close to 20 degrees.

In this case, you can cut down trees outside and use them to cultivate mushrooms and grow vegetables.

The trees were frozen to death, but the organic matter remained. The total amount of organic matter in the nearby forests that were frozen to death was enough for their small tribe to consume for a thousand years.

Coupled with greenhouse buildings, it can ensure that the entire tribe continues to multiply and expand.

In short, they have entered a new positive cycle.

Build a cellar and greenhouse, grow mushrooms, vegetables, grain, make ice, make glass, and continue mining. It is best to find coal mines.

If there were coal mines, there would be no threat from the Ice Age.

Human coal mines, even modern industries of later generations, cannot be used clean for hundreds of years, let alone primitive tribes like them.

Basically a coal mine means endless energy.

This requires exploration.

In short, I searched and searched, but unfortunately coal mines are not so easy to find.

This is not the original world. The terrain is unfamiliar. You need to look for coal mines according to the rules of mineral exposure. It may take hundreds of years to discover coal mines.

In reality, people first used coal mines after entering feudal society.

During the exploration, the prospectors found a group of returning refugees.

They were originally from this tribe.

The reason why he left the tribe was that he disliked Wen Rensheng for controlling their waste, not allowing them to enjoy themselves, and making them work hard to do all kinds of work.

Storing food, making glass, and researching technology are all tiring.

Human nature is to do something when there is a need.

I will lie down and rest when I don't need to.

Just like in an agricultural society, there is too much labor and there is no need to invent machines.

Labor is so cheap that it is much cheaper than machines.

Then no one will invent anything.

In the past, these people had disliked Wen Rensheng's measures and disliked him for not letting them rest and letting them work hard.

Some people even rebelled because of this, but Wen Rensheng suppressed them all.

After failing, they ran away.

Fortunately, those who ran away are back again.

One by one, they knelt in the ice and snow, begging Wen Rensheng for forgiveness.

"I'm sorry, sage king, we were wrong. Only now do we know the king's wisdom and foresight."

"Okay, come back as soon as you come back. Come back and continue working." Wen Rensheng is a man of great wisdom. Of course, he will not waste these people's precious labor because of their past.

So these people dug cellars every day, and continued to dig, and dug every day.

If you don’t want to dig, go explore around and explore the coal mines.

Oil will do, too.

But oil was not easy to use in the early days.

Because it is a large area when burned, and oil and gas are easy to explode, the glass industry and metal technology must reach a certain level to make good use of oil.

The temperature continues to drop.

This reduction has been reduced for hundreds of years.

One tribe after another quietly died out.

Someone discovered the thriving Wen Rensheng tribe.

They went crazy and wanted to come and plunder and seize their cellars.

Then they were defeated one by one by Wen Rensheng.

The cellar is both a greenhouse and the best fortress.

Just make the ice layer thicker.

He defeated these tribes and then said to them: "I can give you food, but you need to work in exchange."

Of course he won't kill them all. The population these days is the wealth.

How much value can be exerted by how many people there are.

Someone couldn't help but ask: "Your Majesty, why does the weather continue to get colder when there is still sunshine?"

This is the answer that many people want to know.

Little Wang Beibei, well, he was reincarnated again.

He told everyone Wen Rensheng's answer.

"Since there is a lack of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and the greenhouse effect cannot be retained, when will it recover?"

"Plants freeze to death, animals survive, and the movement of the earth's crust and combustion will produce carbon dioxide, which will recover after equilibrium. This process may take hundreds of thousands of years." Wen Rensheng replied.

"Can we hold on for such a long time? Trees are limited after all." Someone worried.

"So we need to find coal. If we have a large coal mine, we can spend millions of years, not to mention hundreds of thousands of years."

"The reserves of a large coal mine can be as high as tens of billions of tons. With our tribe's consumption level, it is not bad to consume one thousand tons of coal a year, not to mention that there is sunlight to replenish energy, and coal is mainly used to provide the temperature needed for life.

"

After Wen Rensheng's explanation, everyone's enthusiasm for finding coal mines greatly increased.

If Wen Rensheng hadn't been far-sighted, their tribe would have been frozen to death and exterminated, and they would never have survived so easily.

Excluding those living in the volcanic zone, there are now more than 100,000 people living in the original tribal site.

Most people were slaves or wage workers.

Wenrensheng's prestige is getting higher and higher.

It can be said that his series of actions have made him a god in people's minds.

As he said, this ice age is very long. A full 100 years have passed, and there is no sign of ending. On the contrary, it has become colder.

Today, another group of barbarians migrated from a distant place.

Just like before, after they saw the prosperity and hope here, they subconsciously wanted to snatch it and turn it into their own territory.

However, Wen Rensheng's soldiers were quickly and easily defeated.

Then comes the skillful transformation process.

The children were separated and the adults were beaten into slaves.

Children are educated and integrated into the tribe.

This has long been a very mature process, and no one will find it troublesome at all.

Moreover, this Ice Age is a great opportunity for them to expand their power and dominate the human world.

They didn't need to conquer anything. The cold weather helped them destroy all their enemies.

Now they have a population of over 1 million.

This was a relatively powerful country in feudal society.

It can send out 100,000 troops, which is a very powerful number.

You can carry out a war to destroy the country. You must know that the Manchu Qing Dynasty only used 80,000 people to conquer the Ming Dynasty.

Everyone gradually discovered that in the Ice Age, there were great opportunities in the crisis.

Instead of resenting the cold crisis, they began to like the cold.

Cold has another benefit, that is, the chance of infectious diseases is greatly reduced.

It’s just that colds and fevers are increasing.

Places that were unconquerable before can now be conquered.

In the past, there were many mosquitoes and flies in hot and humid areas, which easily caused many diseases and kept people away.

Now it's very simple, just go there, cut down the trees, and build the ice road.

Then you can dig cellars there, build greenhouses, and develop sub-bases.

The most important thing, of course, is to look for minerals.

After more than 100 years of exploration, someone finally found the location of the coal mine.

Of course everyone knows that it is a black stone that can burn in a fire
