Chapter 279 The Road Is Blocked

When Fusu heard that the snow had buried the road and made it impossible to see, his first reaction was to sprinkle salt on the snow to help it melt.

But upon closer examination, the world is indeed barren in terms of resources.

Strictness is a rare luxury item; ordinary people don't even have table salt to eat, let alone scatter salt on the road.

Isn't this an extravagant waste of resources? Others probably wouldn't even dare to think about it, let alone do it this way. Hmm.

However, it must be said that in this backward world, with only manpower available and nothing else, Fusu could not come up with a solution.

After all, those things in the previous life all required technology.

Therefore, Fusu's idea was immediately rejected.

Fusu shook his head regretfully.

He said regretfully, "Natural disasters are merciless and cannot be changed by human effort. With such heavy snow, even if we go to clear the roads, it can only help for a short time. Our people cannot fight against nature; we can only wait until it stops snowing."

"Fusu wasn't just saying high-sounding words; he really had no choice. He didn't think anyone in the world could handle this situation. The only thing he could do was wait patiently."

"In modern times, there are many ways to resolve this crisis, but unfortunately, in this ancient era with limited resources, no method is available. We can only rely on the lives of those people; how resilient are they?"

Fusu finally understood how cruel ancient times were. Many times, it wasn't that the court didn't want to help, but that it was powerless to do so.

Therefore, it can only rely on ordinary people to survive; those with strong constitutions will survive, while those with weak constitutions will probably die.

But the world is full of ordinary people. There are so many ordinary people that it doesn't matter if a bunch of them die.

Unfortunately, for ordinary people, it was a huge disaster. No one wanted to die, but Fusu was truly helpless.

Suddenly, Fusu had a flash of inspiration and thought of the sleds commonly used in the north. Perhaps they could use sleds here and glide on the snow.

It doesn't sink in, which shows that this thing is useful for dealing with snow accumulation.

Thinking of this, Fusu excitedly stood up and went to learn carpentry.

He had forgotten many things about sleds, but Fusu had skied before, so he knew roughly what a sled looked like.

He copied the water into a sketch and then gave it to the carpenter, hoping the carpenter could study it and see if he could make it.

Professional tasks should be left to professionals.

Carpenters were looked down upon in ancient times, but in Fusu's view, this profession had unlimited potential and he knew a great deal.

These ancient people were skillful, but they were unwilling to pass on their skills, which is why they were lost.

But their abilities are undeniable; perhaps what he drew can actually be made.

The most important thing about sleds is balance.

Fusu brought the items to the carpenter, while General Chen was dumbfounded, wondering why his young master had suddenly run to the carpenter with such enthusiasm.

Weren't they just talking about the snow disaster?

General Chen really couldn't understand what Fusu was thinking. He simply couldn't believe that two wooden planks could withstand a snow disaster.

If Fusu hadn't been so clever as to make General Chen forget that no one in this world could fight against natural disasters.

Otherwise, General Chen would never have thought of coming to Fusu to solve the problem of snow accumulation; it was an urgent matter.
