Chapter 23: Salt mine
When Ning Yuan told him about some of the daily affairs of the territory, Bai Shihai readily agreed. There is no way, some people don’t like to fight and kill by nature. Bai Shihai is this type of person, otherwise He won't be so pitiful anymore.
Born in this era before, he had no choice. In order for the tribe to survive, he could only force himself to fight continuously. He can get to this point because of the force of the environment.
It's all right now. Ning Yuan is strong. He can completely entrust the fighting task to this "madman". He only needs to manage the logistics.
Ning Yuan didn't expect Bai Shihai to talk so well, but after thinking about it, he would understand that Bai Shihai is the kind of person who doesn't like fighting very much.
As long as others don’t hit the head, he will never take the initiative to attack, otherwise the Baishi tribe will not coexist with the small tribe that was destroyed by Ning Yuan for so long. Of course, if anyone is bullied on him, he will also. Desperately, Ning Yuan is the best example.
Bai Shihai's physical fitness is pretty good. Ning Yuan checked him and found that his ribs were not broken, but he was hit so hard by himself. There will always be a little bit of internal injury, which requires slow training. Up.
As for the concussion, judging from his shrewd appearance, it is estimated that the concussion has no effect on him at all.
After a short rest, Bai Shihai finally stood up swayingly. Ning Yuan saw that there was nothing serious about him, so he proposed to take the entire Baishi tribe to move to the Shenying tribe.
Hearing Ning Yuan said that he wanted to move, Bai Shihai immediately stopped doing it. Even when Ning Yuan threw out the new food of fish, Bai Shihai didn't mean to let go. Just when Ning Yuan had something to say, he directly asked Ning Yuan to follow. Himself, and then walked towards the camp.
Bai Shihai came to the tent and went straight into it. Just as Ning Yuan was considering whether or not to follow in, he got out of it again. Bai Shihai got out of the tent and handed Ning Yuan a small white crystal.
After receiving the white crystal, Ning Yuan didn't see what it was after watching for a long time. Bai Shihai could only help him to lick it with his tongue.
Ning Yuan could only put the white crystal to his mouth, and then licked it with his tongue. It didn’t matter if he licked, Ning Yuan was so excited that the hairs on his body stood up.
He is too familiar with the salty taste. This is salt. This is an essential life resource. Humans consume it every day. If there is a long-term lack of salt, the human body will have various problems. It can maintain the body's osmotic pressure and acid-base balance.
After coming to this world, Ning Yuan never tasted the taste of salt again. Every day food can fade away. If it weren't for filling his stomach, he would definitely not want to eat food that was difficult to swallow. So it is sometimes not a good thing to say that it is 100% virtual.
Since salt is so important, what did the ancients use to supplement the salt needed by the body when no salt was found?
Ning Yuan has specifically checked this information. It turns out that the blood of animals contains salt, and humans can supplement the salt needed by the body by eating animal blood. After learning the truth, he has more on the table. There was a food that was difficult to swallow.
In fact, many foods contain salt, but there are more or less, but for humans, the salt in many foods is far from enough, so people will add a little when cooking every day. salt.
In addition to replenishing the salt required by the human body, it can also adjust the taste of food and make food no longer difficult to swallow. Therefore, the discovery of salt is of great significance to the development of human society.
It allows people to stop drinking the blood of animals that are difficult to swallow. Ning Yuan even guessed that the fact that humans can say goodbye to the ignorant age of drinking blood may have something to do with the discovery of salt.
In addition to being edible, salt can also be used to preserve some easily spoiled foods, such as meat and fish. With salt, Ningyuan can completely make edible meat into dried bacon and bacon. This way , The food crisis of the Condor tribe in winter can be easily solved.
In addition, salt can also be used to make normal saline to clean up wounds. Although normal saline cannot be disinfected, the wound can be cleaned up to effectively prevent infection. This should be able to play a great role in the era of cold weapons.
In addition, salt can protect teeth. Occasionally gargle with salt water can effectively prevent tooth decay. A good mouth and mouth can help the body. This is applicable in any era.
Of course, the uses of salt are not limited to these, but now these are the limits that Ning Yuan can think of.
"Where did you find these salts?" After calming down his excitement, Ning Yuan hurriedly asked.
"follow me."
After Bai Shihai finished speaking, he walked towards Baishi Mountain, while Ning Yuan followed closely.
Baishi Mountain is not a high mountain. The highest peak can be about three to four hundred meters. The mountain is full of strange rocks and lush vegetation. The whole mountain is in a ring shape. The Baishi tribe is located just near the gap in the ring.
The two walked in along the gap. After walking for about ten minutes, a gray-white stone wall appeared in front of Ning Yuan's eyes. At this moment, a group of wild boars were licking something in front of the stone wall. Coax away.
Ning Yuan came to the stone wall and found that the color of the stone wall was exactly the same as the salt crystals that Bai Shihai had just given him. Under curiosity, he stretched out his tongue and licked the stone wall, and there was a salty taste.
Is this a huge salt mine? Without believing in evil, Ning Yuan licked everywhere along the stone wall. As a result, no matter where he licked, there would be a salty taste everywhere.
In order to further verify his guess, Ning Yuan found a stone and slammed it towards the stone wall.
After tasting the falling white powder, Ning Yuan finally confirmed that there is a salt mine here, and looking at the huge salt rock exposed, the scale of this salt mine is definitely not small. It is estimated that this salt mine alone is enough for him. The game used to close down.
"Patriarch, are we still moving?" Seeing Ning Yuan's intoxicated appearance, Bai Shihai asked with a smile.
"If you don’t move, you won’t move if you are killed or killed. I will send someone here to bring people from the camp here. From now on, our Condor tribe will live on this Baishi Mountain. All the salt is my Condor. The tribe, whoever dares to grab, I will destroy whoever."
Since seeing this salt mine, Ning Yuan has been completely unable to walk around the place. He vowed to take this place as his own, and no one wants to approach it.
As for the huge fish resources in Lake Victory, give it to whoever wants it. Anyway, Lake Victory is so big that he can't occupy it alone.
Furthermore, it is not just a few tribes that can be occupied now. When he becomes stronger in the future and annexes all the tribes around the lake, isn't Lake Victoria still his?
After making up his mind, Ning Yuan and Bai Shihai returned to the camp. He asked Black Eagle to return to the Condor tribe with thirty soldiers, and to inform the people there to go to Baishi Mountain as a group the next day. He would send someone to meet him tomorrow. .
After dismissing the black eagle, Ning Yuan began to observe the terrain here. There is a huge valley in Baishi Mountain, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. However, once this terrain is surrounded by the enemy, it will be like a turtle in the urn. Will be trapped alive by the enemy in the valley.
Ning Yuan is now accustomed to the offensive, offensive, and re-offensive fighting style. He likes this kind of iron and blood confrontation. Blindly defensive is not in line with his style, so he plans to build a camp outside Taniguchi. In this way, both Block the entire valley without being trapped in the valley by the enemy.
In addition to the inexhaustible salt resources of Baishi Mountain, there is a greater convenience for primitive tribes such as the Condor tribe, that is, stone axes can be made from local materials.
Before copper and iron ore were found, the only weapons Ning Yuan and the others could use were stone weapons.
Bone weapons are too fragile and easy to break, and wooden weapons are too blunt and have no lethality. Therefore, stone axes and stone spears are the mainstream weapons of this era. Before bronze and iron objects are made, stone weapons will continue. Rule this barbaric era.
In addition, the products of Baishi Mountain are also very rich. There are a large number of apple trees on Baishi Mountain. At this time, it is the season for apples to mature, and there are so many apples that people can eat.
The only regret is that these apples cannot be stored, otherwise, all the apples here will be collected, enough for the whole tribe to eat until the beginning of the second year.
Ningyuan knows one way to store apples, that is, to dig a cellar, and then just put the apples in the cellar to store them for a long time.
It is a pity that digging the cellar requires some tools such as shovels. The Condor tribe does not currently have the conditions to dig the cellar. Stone spears and stone axes are okay to fight, so let’s just dig deep pits.
In addition to fruit trees, the wild animal resources near Baishi Mountain are also very rich. Since there is only an open-air salt mine in the valley nearby, many animals will regularly come here to replenish salt.
There are a lot of carnivorous beasts in the valley. Although these carnivorous beasts do not need to add salt, as long as they guard this open-air salt mine, there will be a steady stream of food delivered to the door, so it is no wonder that these beasts will be there. Lived in the valley.
It is precisely because of so many food sources that Ning Yuan has no regrets about temporarily giving up Victoria Lake. He plans to use this as a base and slowly expand around.
After a delicious meal of brine stew at noon, Ning Yuan led some people to explore near Baishi Mountain.
Although Bai Shihai gave him a brief introduction to the situation here, some things still have to be seen with his own eyes. As the leader of the clan, Ning Yuan must be familiar with the terrain here, otherwise he may miss the opportunity in a future battle. .
There are dense woods near the Baishi tribe. There is a small stream more than a hundred meters away from the camp. It seems that the flow should finally merge into Lake Victoria.
After going around the camp for a long time, Ning Yuan finally decided to expand the new camp as far away as possible from the stream. Although the tribe’s camp cannot be too far away from the water source before the well is invented, sometimes it’s too close. It may not be a good thing.
First of all, this is an era of wild beasts. Many of those carnivorous beasts forage near water sources, so they are too close to the water source and are easily attacked by wild beasts.
Secondly, for a natural disaster, Ning Yuan must take precautions. Although the water level in the stream is not high right now, who knows what it will be like in the flood season, after all, the flood is ruthless, so he must be careful to guard against it.
After determining the direction of the camp's expansion, Ning Yuan led the people to clear the ground. Originally, according to his idea, he wanted to level the nearby woods, but the stone axe in his hand was really not powerful.
The small trees with thick arms are okay. These warriors with bulging muscles can break them with their hands without using a stone axe, but they can't do anything about the trees with thicker arms.
Although a stone axe is called an axe, its essence is still a blunt weapon. It is used to cut trees to hit stones with pebbles. After smashing two stone axes in succession, Ning Yuan decisively stopped this kind of meaningless waste. No one could shake these big trees before the saw.
In desperation, Ning Yuan had to include these big trees within the scope of the camp. He made a lot of branches with thick arms and then dug a simple ditch with a stone spear, and inserted these branches in the ditch to fill it. Put the soil, step on the solid with your feet, and finally fix the branches with vines, and a simple wooden fence is built.
Although this fence is not very strong, at least it can prevent some beasts from entering the camp at night.
Although Ning Yuan comes from modern times and has many advanced ideas, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. Many of his ideas are temporarily impossible to realize because he does not have tools in his hands. This long wooden fence is the only thing he can think of now. Did it.
In the afternoon of the next day, the team of the Shenying tribe finally arrived at this new camp. After arranging the accommodation for the tribe, Ning Yuan began to divide the work for everyone.
The Condor tribe now has 205 warriors, 240 elderly, women and children.
Since this era is a primitive society, the soldiers are responsible for supporting their families, which is equivalent to a warrior supporting an ordinary tribe. Therefore, the food pressure of the Condor tribe is not too great. If the common people in the feudal society support the army, this war peasant Biko is going to die.
Ning Yuan divided the 205 condor warriors into four parts. The first part is the strongest condor guard, led by him. There are 113 condor guards, including thirteen eagles and 100 soldiers. This is the combat unit planned by Ning Yuan.
The remaining 92 people were assigned to 60 people from Bai Ze. This is his planned local defense force, which is responsible for hunting in peacetime and for defense of the base camp in wartime.
The other thirty-two people are reserved for Bai Shihai. Although these thirty-two people are all warriors who have experienced many battles, since these people are basically wounded, their main task now is to stay. Cultivate in the camp and patrol around the camp by the way to prevent wild animals from attacking the women and children.
As for the 240 women and children, Ning Yuan did not intend to let them idle. Although they could not go hunting, Ning Yuan had arranged work for them.
Ning Yuan intends to take people to clean up the Baishi Valley completely, and temporarily establish a small breeding base here, and then catch some young wild boars, pheasants, goats, bison and other herbivores and treat them. Raised in this semi-enclosed valley.
These women and children don’t have to do anything else, they just need to get some forage to feed these animals every day.
Besides, those big red apples can't just watch them rot.
Although I can’t dig a cellar now, I waited until the valley was cleared and found a few caves with low temperature inside, and then the apples were transported to the caves for storage. As for whether the apples would rot in the end, it was not Ning Yuan’s control.
Although the physical strength of the women is not as good as those of the fighters, they are better than their ingenuity and patience. Ning Yuan intends to teach them how to use rattan to weave some baskets or something to hold things. As for using rattan to weave some more complicated things, just Can rely on them to slowly understand.
You must know that in order to successfully assemble a basket, Ning Yuan did not suffer less. At the end of the game, he would go to the primitive society survival training class specially for them, the Lord players, every day.
After returning home, after watching the civilization forum, he still had to take the cane he brought back from the training class to do homework. After making a lot of cuts in his hand, he finally succeeded in composing a basket. Incomparable, but at least it can decorate things.
Actually, if Ning Yuan placed the Condor tribe on the shore of Lake Victoria, these women would slowly find out these things for fishing.
Although the organization of baskets is more complicated than that of fish cages and fish crates, as the so-called one pass, some ingenious people can continue to innovate as needed.
It's a pity that the discovery of the salt mine made Ning Yuan decisively abandon Lake Victoria, and the elementary fishing and intermediate fishing that he invested a lot of research value in the early stage can only be temporarily frozen.
Ning Yuan originally wanted these women to do some work within their power, but after this arrangement, he realized that they were too capable, and the manpower in his tribe was simply not enough. UU reading www.uukanshu.cóm
Cooking, bringing children, collecting apples, weaving rattan products, raising livestock and poultry, collecting wild vegetables, collecting seeds,..., the saying that a woman can hold up half the sky is really not a cover.
After allocating the work, everyone in the Condor tribe took action. Ning Yuan and Bai Ze took the Condor warriors for half a month to finally clear out the Baishi Valley, although there were many slippery fishes. , But at least those beasts dare not return to the valley for a short time.
As the safe areas opened up by the soldiers became larger and larger, women and children also started to take action. They built a new fence next to the camp to feed various herbivore cubs caught by the soldiers.
The beasts that the soldiers hunted these days were also made into dried bacon with salt. The apples near the camp were also picked and temporarily stored in a small cave.
In addition, they also collected a lot of seeds. Although most of Ning Yuan did not know him, he could wait until the spring of the next year, and then plant the seeds separately, and wait until they bloom and bear fruit, he can know What kind of seeds are they?
After working continuously for more than half a month, the soldiers are a little tired. Now the tribe is full of dried bacon and the food is very sufficient. So Ning Yuan simply gave these soldiers a two-day holiday and let them Take a good break.
Because April 1st is coming soon (players are used to calling the first day of entering the game as January 1st of the first year of the barbarian, in fact, the real time of Ningyuan’s plane should be around June in the summer), then this This kind of peaceful life will be completely far away from them, coupled with Ning Yuan's special talent attributes, I am afraid these fighters will not want to rest so leisurely for a long time.
