Prehistoric Widows Survival [Farming]
Chapter 41
"It's freezing cold, I'll ask Feng and the others to make you another bed."
Before that, Lu Er introduced the wooden bed to other Asian beasts in the tribe.When Lu Er first bought this bed, it was still the warm season. At that time, there was no difference between sleeping on the ground or on the bed; in the cold season, this kind of furniture that isolates the cold air from the ground immediately played a different value. Feng and the pair of beavers Brothers are about to become professional carpenters.
As soon as Lu You's voice fell, Jiao's complexion instantly darkened, and the hot blood in his heart also cooled down.
After calming down for a while, Jiao squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "No."
Seeing that Lu Er seemed not very happy about sleeping on the bed, he thought about it and changed his suggestion: "Then let's lay more animal skins on the ground, so that you won't be frozen wherever you sleep; in addition, I'll make it for you A blanket."
Anyway, there are a lot of animal skins at home.
Speaking of extra bedding, Lu Er just spread animal skins on the innermost part of the tent, from the wooden bed to the corner nest.Stepping on it, the soft fur gently scratched the soles of the feet, and the touch was soft, more comfortable than the carpets that Lu Er had laid at home in modern society.
After all, this is pure natural fur.
Make the stitches of the knitting sweater a little denser, and weave a whole blanket, which is very comfortable whether it is under the body or covered at night.
Jiao provided himself with high-quality wool for knitting sweaters, and Lu Er also wanted to return him some points.
Jiaojiao watched helplessly that the excuse he originally planned to use to go to bed in the cold season was completely shattered, and his brows and eyes were slightly depressed; but seeing this sub-beast busy up and down for his own sleep, the close-fitting white sweater outlined his smooth body. Curves, and I feel very happy in my heart, and I feel sweet when I drink saliva.
Such a good Asian beast, only he can see it!
With this in mind, before Lu Er went out the next day, Jiao put an animal skin shawl on Lu Er, with a serious expression: "Be careful of the cold."
——How can others see his sub-beast wearing a sweater?
Lu You was a little surprised, and refused with a smile: "It's too hot to wear two pieces now."
Jiao was still a little unwilling, and just wanted to find some more reasons, and then heard Lu You's next sentence, "I tried it on at Duo Yu's place, and the neckline was still a bit wrong at the time, let them see it today."
—Have you already shown it to others?
Jiao felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He watched Lu Er, who was so good-looking, open the tent and go out. He suddenly woke up and followed with a straight face.
The tight-fitting high-necked white sweater made Lu Wei look very good-looking. The long legs under the animal skin skirt were wearing animal leather shoes, and there was a tall and handsome orc beside him, which was very eye-catching.
For a long time, Jiao has always been the focus of attention of the Redwood Tribe, like the most dazzling star, everyone will unconsciously cast their eyes on Jiao;
But now that Lu Er and Jiao appeared together, the orcs in the Redwood Tribe realized that even though they were much shorter than Jiao, and even if their aura was not as fierce and arrogant as Jiao, Lu Er was not inferior at all by Jiao's side, complementing each other.
The orcs passing by looked at Lu You with straight eyes, and some sub-beasts even turned a little red when they looked at Lu You.
Jiao stood aside with a gloomy face, exuding an invisible aura, which stimulated the orcs to wake up from Lu You's beauty, and hurriedly stepped back and slipped away.
They don't want to be beaten again.
The sub-beasts didn't have such worries, they swarmed up and asked where the sweater on Lu Er's body came from.
Knowing that this is the sweater that Lu You made at Duo Yu's these days, these sub-beasts who didn't go to Duo Yu's to join in the fun looked at each other and made up their minds to go to Duo Yu to learn after finishing today's work. knitting!
A sub-beast touched Lu Wei's sleeve carefully, and asked in surprise, "This...sweater! The sweater feels so good! What kind of animal hair are you using?"
Jiao waited for this opportunity for a long time, and immediately replied in a casual tone: "I changed the hair."
"Horn hair?"
The sub-beasts sized up Lu Yi and Jiao, seeing the same silver-white hair on Lu Yi's body as Jiao's, envious eyes streamed from their eyes; there were also a few older sub-beasts with loving expressions on their faces. smile.
Under the bath of this kind of gaze, Jiao felt as sweet as if his whole body was soaked in honey water, and his gaze slipped past Lu Wei seemingly inadvertently.
If it wasn't for the sub-beast not agreeing yet, he wished he could hug him around now!
Contrary to Jiao, Lu Er felt a little embarrassed under such gazes, and also had a strange feeling: Didn't he still think about how to downplay his relationship with Jiao, so that when he "divorces" with Jiao in the future, it will not be so embarrassing? Is it abrupt?
Why are the aunts who are watching the crowd laughing now?
Lu You faintly felt that something was wrong, but couldn't figure it out for a while.
If you can't figure it out, just remember it first, and observe slowly later.Lu Er didn't forget the purpose of going out today, and explained the key points of knitting sweaters to the Asian beasts, and then went to Duo Yu's tent.
Not far away, Yong's gaze followed Lu You's back, and he reluctantly retracted it before turning his head to look at Lie. Just as he was about to say something, he was startled by Lie's gloomy expression: "Lie?"
Lie pursed his lips tightly, and it took him a long time to remind him: "The green ear already has horns."
Yong didn't know why he felt guilty for some reason, and subconsciously made excuses: "I think that sweater is pretty, it's worthy of being a horn."
After a pause, Yong seemed a little puzzled again: "But it's a bit strange, Jiao doesn't hunt with us now, and walks alone every day."
Lie looked a little gloomy, and there was an expression that Yong didn't quite understand flashed in his lead gray eyes: "Like sweaters?"
Yong touched the back of his head, tilted his head and thought for a while, his eyes sparkled: "I also want my favorite sub-beast to wear a sweater made of my wool."
With heavy eyes, he turned his head away, and said softly, "Me too."
"It's a pity that the hair I changed last time was given to Lu Er." Yong sighed with some regret, "We can only wait until the next warm season when the hair changes."
Lie looked back at him again, thought of something, suddenly chuckled, and seemed to feel better again.
……
The preparations for the cold season are not only prey, but also firewood for heating and burning meat.
At this time in previous years, the orcs and sub-beasts would go out and bring back dry firewood; now there is millet and straw, and there are large stacks of straw bundles outside the tents of every household. These are convenient fuels, and the tribe collects firewood. All of a sudden the pressure is much less.
Lu Er has another thing to worry about.
His five pigs also need to keep warm.
From Jiao's mouth, Lu You learned that in the cold season, dwarf pigs will lay thick hay in their nests, the boars are responsible for going out to find food, and the sows will hardly leave the piglets, using their own body temperature To keep them warm; dwarf pigs who lost one side had to leave their young in the nest and go out, letting the piglets gather together to keep warm by themselves.
The cold resistance of the big wild boar is not bad, but the little piglets are not.
The five pigs in Lu You's family have not yet grown up, so they are just thrown outside, and they can harvest five large pieces of fresh frozen meat as soon as the cold season enters.
After thinking about it, Lu Er decided to refer to the greenhouses of the modern breeding industry and set up a small tent outside his pigsty.
A lot of animal skins were wasted to build a tent for the pig. Lu You was still a little worried that Jiao, the owner of the animal skins, might disagree. .
Lu You thanked Jiao happily, and said with a smile while holding the animal skin that Jiao gave him: "I still think that if you are not willing, I will exchange it with you for other things."
Looking at Lu You's surprised look, Jiao Jiao felt numb in his heart, thinking that exchanging a few pieces of animal skin for his sub-beast's smile was a good deal—wasn't it just a tent for that stupid "brother"?For the sake of it getting fatter and fatter, he can afford the animal skin.
But when he heard Lu Wei's words, Jiao suddenly felt a little regretful: If he hesitates, can he take this opportunity to offer some terms of exchange and take advantage of it?
The horn who felt that he was crying could only comfort himself: It's okay, most of the time in the cold season is spent in the tent and does not go out, the two of them have lived together for so long, are they afraid that they will not be able to roll into bed logically?
……
When the pigsty was originally built, the railings and roof racks had already been installed. This time, the conversion into a tent is not a big workload, as long as the animal skins are connected and spread around.
He set up Jiao's tent by himself. This time when he remodeled the pigsty, Jiao didn't want to tire his sub-beasts, so he did it all by himself. He secretly hoped that his sub-beasts would give more to him because of his initiative. Some benefits of intimacy.
When closing the gap between the animal skins in the pigsty, Xiao Lu approached affectionately.
Its brain capacity is small, but the smell of the big man in front of him has been there since it came to this pigsty; at that time, the big man was about the same size as it was, a small furry animal with a tail It moves around and is very cute.
Now I have become naked and hairless, which is not good.
But even if he was hairless, Xiaolu still liked this big guy who would bring food and water every time, and leaned over affectionately with his pig nose on the horned calf to express his love.
Jiao glared at it angrily, kept moving his hands, and kicked Xiaolu upside down with his legs.
Xiaolu gained a lot of weight from Lu You's place. After turning over, he struggled for a long time before getting up, and came back without any discouragement.
It has never been angry since the kitten cub slapped it with its pad, and they all felt that the horn was playing with it, so they became more excited and made a happy "purr" sound from their mouths.
Jiao was helpless: "Can't you be quiet like them?"
Xiaolu wiped his snot on Jiao's calf again, blinked his black bean-sized eyes, and looked at Jiao in confusion.
Its two new brothers have been castrated. The two little boars who have lost their original human desires are pure-hearted, ascetic, wide-bodied and fat. They eat fatter than Xiaolu and sleep peacefully on the ground after eating; The gilt has a relatively stable temperament, and she has a little fear of the lion's breath naturally exuding from Jiao's body, and never dares to be presumptuous in front of Jiao.
Only Xiaolu and Jiao "know each other at a very young age" and are a little careless, so they don't hesitate to wipe their noses on his legs.
Jiao finished the last tool, knelt down and poked Xiaolu's forehead boredly, looked at this carefree piglet, and said in a sour tone: "You are very good, you have two little mothers before you grow up." Pigs are waiting for you."
His subbeast hasn't accepted him yet!Why is this stupid pig so happy!
Pulling Xiaolu's ears, Jiao was a little lost in thought: "When will he like me?"
"Who do you like?"
At this time, the curtain of the tent in the pigsty was lifted, and Lu Er walked in with a big guy in his arms. After listening to a few words, he asked curiously.
Jiao coughed: "Nothing."
He stood up and reached out to take the big red guy that Lu Wei was hugging. It felt a little heavy in his hand. He looked down at it like a big pottery, and couldn't help but wonder: "What is this?"
"Heater, let Xiaolu and them warm up later." Lu You took out a small white square towel from the pocket of the sweater and wiped off his sweat. When he saw Jiao's gaze fixed on his hand, he froze for a moment before remembering and explaining. After a while, "This is a handkerchief I made from the leftover scraps of my sweater... I don't need it if you mind."
Lu Er simply wanted to avoid wasting the remaining wool, so he simply re-wound it and asked Duo Yu to help weave it into a small handkerchief.
After coming to this world, the only thing that can be used to wipe the face is animal skin, which is thick and cannot be wiped clean.
The horn hair is of very good quality, so Lu You didn't think much about it. After weaving it into a handkerchief, she put it in her pocket and took it out to use at any time.
But he forgot that maybe the orc still has extra obsession with his hair, and he might not want him to use it as a handkerchief.
Jiao shook his head: "It's okay, you can use it."
Just now, seeing those hairs that belonged to him slide across Lu Er's forehead, behind the ears, and on his chin, he felt a little eager to move, and even felt a little jealous of those hairs that were woven into handkerchiefs.
——He has never touched the ears of this sub-beast!
— Forget it, after all, it is his Mao Mao, almost equal to himself...
Jiao tried his best to comfort himself, put the heater in the center of the pigsty, and let Xiao Lu come over curiously to sniff it, frowning slightly: "I'll move this next time."
Lu Wei didn't care too much, and agreed casually: "Okay, we will also put a heater in our tent, and I will ask you to move it when the time comes."
The stove is a new gadget that Lu Er has prepared for the winter.
From memory, the heat source for the orcs in the winter was the bonfire in the tent, throwing any kind of fuel into it, not only would the top of the tent be blackened, but it would also easily cause a fire.
Referring to the experience of modern society, Lu Wei specially made a simple heater in a pottery kiln. It is not very big, and it is easier to keep the fire than a campfire. You can also sit a small kettle on it to boil water.
For a tent as big as theirs, just two can guarantee basic warmth; one smaller tent is enough.
Lu Er has asked the pottery team in the tribe to work overtime to make sure that each orc's home can be allocated enough heaters.
Of course, these stoves were not given in vain, and the orcs who wanted the stove had to work in the tribe in addition to providing food.
In winter, there will be wild beasts that can't find food and are frantically hungry and come to the tribe. Although most of the wild beasts are looking for death, the old, weak, sick and disabled who have little fighting power are still in great danger when they encounter wild beasts.
The Redwood Tribe used to have simple fences, but they were arranged casually in the early years, with almost no protective effect—otherwise, the Little Stone Tribe would not have broken in so easily last time.
Lu You's plan is to repair the fence, not to mention how solid it is, at least it can serve as a barrier and a warning.
Repairing the fence was originally a job of exchanging heaters, but most of the orcs and sub-beasts in the tribe found time to help. In the past, the most idle people in the tribe did their best to work, even if they changed to heaters, it surprised Lu Er. In addition, I am satisfied with a lot.
——Now the collective concept of the Redwood Tribe is much stronger than before.
……
"Brother, father is calling you."
Lu Er opened the tent and saw the red-haired Mang waiting at the door, and gave him a sweet and sour preserved fruit, "What's the matter?"
Preserved fruit is the last harvest before he finally closes the experimental field. After picking all the berries in one go, they are steamed in a pan and dried in the sun to make a simple dessert.
Although there was no white sugar for seasoning, Lu Er soaked the preserved fruit in honey water, and the taste was not bad—the honey was delivered by Mang holding back his saliva.
Mang was fond of sweets, and happily took the candied fruit, with a shy smile on his face: "There are guests from other tribes."
Another tribe?Could it be the Little Rock tribe?
Lu You was slightly puzzled, and Jiao got out of the tent with a serious face: "I'll go too."
When they arrived at Teng's tent, Lu Er saw the guest from another tribe. He was a strong young man with a good appearance, with brown patterns tattooed on his body, which seemed different from that of the Xiaoshi tribe.
The man introduced himself, saying that he was from the Jufang tribe, his name was "Shi", and his prototype seemed to be a rhinoceros.
Compared with the Little Stone Tribe, the Giant Tooth Tribe is a little farther away from the Redwood Tribe, separated by a more dangerous hunting ground, so when Chong and Lie exchanged salt, they went to the closer Little Stone Tribe.
The tribal structure of the Giant Fang Tribe is similar to that of the Redwood Tribe, and the leader is also very honest. The relationship between the two tribes has always been good.
When I saw Lu You, I was amazed by Lu You who was wearing a high-collared white sweater, and she was very enthusiastic: "You are the witch doctor of the Redwood Tribe? You look so good!"
Ever since Lu Er put on a sweater and received countless such stares, she has long been used to numbness, and the expression on her face remains unchanged; the expression on the side corner is not very good-looking, with a trace of coldness and arrogance in her eyes looking at this life-or-death orc.
Real touch corner of the cold eyes, startled.He knew the role of the Redwood Tribe and knew that he couldn't beat him, so he lowered his enthusiasm a lot and kept a little distance, feeling a little regretful in his heart.
——Sigh, such an excellent sub-beast, there are already orcs around... The leader also said that he is the best single orc in the Jufang tribe, and it seems hopeless to expect him to hook up the witch doctor of the Redwood tribe.
It is impossible to go astray, so I had no choice but to put forward the purpose of my visit in a serious way: "After our tribe replaced your soybeans with salt, we liked it very much. I heard that you are all grown from the land. I would like to ask for advice. , how did it grow?"
They also tried to bury the soybeans in the soil, but the best ones just germinated and grew a seedling, which died soon.
Only then did they understand why the Redwood tribe was so generous in exchanging soybeans for them, and they were not at all worried that they would grow them by themselves. There is a unique secret to being sympathetic.
After the leader of the Giant Fang Tribe personally tested the soybeans, he quickly realized how much value this long-preserved food contained. He failed to grow it by himself, and immediately sent the orcs in the tribe to contact the Redwood Tribe.
After the leader confirmed that the witch doctor of the Redwood tribe was a sub-beast, he specially selected the strongest and most handsome single orc in the tribe to see if he could directly abduct the witch doctor of the Redwood tribe to them.
After all, I heard that the witch doctor's orc is dead!
In fact, he was full of confidence at first, but he didn't know until he arrived at the Redwood Tribe that the witch doctor's orc had come back alive?
When he saw the horns, his inflated confidence was immediately punctured - judging by the appearance and momentum of this orc, he really deserved to be a lion that could directly bite and kill a bull;
In comparison, I look like a bumpkin... How could the sub-beast not choose me!
Lu You doesn't care about real thoughts, but thinks about real problems.
At the beginning of planting, Lu Wei didn't consider other tribes, but only wanted to improve the situation of the Redwood Tribe first; after this year's hard work, the Redwood Tribe has cultivated a lot of arable land and gained a reputation. It is not surprising that people want to cultivate food.
Isn't that what the Little Stone Tribe came here for?
Lu Er glanced at Teng, Teng understood what he meant, and said generously: "The planting was researched by you alone, and you can decide."
There is no doubt about the angle.
Lu You didn't give away planting methods to the people of the Redwood Tribe, let alone other tribes, and frowned slightly: "Let's think about this matter—but I want to remind you that the cold season is coming soon, It's too late to plant now."
Shi nodded: "We have expected this."
After exchanging salt with Teng, the Jufang Tribe tried to grow beans after tasting the beans themselves, wasting a lot of time.
Now that it's the end of the warm season, they don't expect to be able to grow it, they just want to prepare in advance.
Lu Er mainly wanted to inquire about the value and crisis of trading with other tribes. In addition, planting food, something that can change the development process of the orcs, he also had to carefully balance the development of other tribes and the progress of the Redwood tribe.
Even in a primitive society, the accumulation of wealth will attract jealousy, but in an era without legal and moral constraints, the birth of crime will be easy.
Lu You didn't want him to work so hard to guide the Redwood Tribe to the path of civilization, only to be swallowed up by other stronger and more bottomless tribes.
In fact, he said that he would stay in the Redwood Tribe for a while, and Lu Er could give him an answer slowly.
Hearing what he said, Teng frowned: "I'll find an orc to accompany you."
Shi Shi waved his hand: "Don't bother, I will go around casually, and I will hunt the prey by myself."
Teng gave him a surprised look: "Yes, I am responsible for the safety of the tribe."
After all, he is a foreign orc. Since the Redwood Tribe and the Jufang Tribe have been in harmony for a few times, and the relationship is not bad, Teng can allow Shi to stay in their tribe temporarily, but he must send an orc to watch him to ensure that he will not sneak into the tribe. Violation of the safety of the Redwood Tribe.
Needless to say, the safety of the sub-beasts and their cubs, now that their tribe has arable land, food, and pottery, it is even more important to protect the real estate in the tribe.
Reality:"……"
——There are some things in your tribe who don't know who, do you need to be so defensive?
Before that, Lu Er introduced the wooden bed to other Asian beasts in the tribe.When Lu Er first bought this bed, it was still the warm season. At that time, there was no difference between sleeping on the ground or on the bed; in the cold season, this kind of furniture that isolates the cold air from the ground immediately played a different value. Feng and the pair of beavers Brothers are about to become professional carpenters.

Seeing that Lu Er seemed not very happy about sleeping on the bed, he thought about it and changed his suggestion: "Then let's lay more animal skins on the ground, so that you won't be frozen wherever you sleep; in addition, I'll make it for you A blanket."
Anyway, there are a lot of animal skins at home.
Speaking of extra bedding, Lu Er just spread animal skins on the innermost part of the tent, from the wooden bed to the corner nest.Stepping on it, the soft fur gently scratched the soles of the feet, and the touch was soft, more comfortable than the carpets that Lu Er had laid at home in modern society.

Such a good Asian beast, only he can see it!
With this in mind, before Lu Er went out the next day, Jiao put an animal skin shawl on Lu Er, with a serious expression: "Be careful of the cold."
——How can others see his sub-beast wearing a sweater?
Lu You was a little surprised, and refused with a smile: "It's too hot to wear two pieces now."
Jiao was still a little unwilling, and just wanted to find some more reasons, and then heard Lu You's next sentence, "I tried it on at Duo Yu's place, and the neckline was still a bit wrong at the time, let them see it today."
—Have you already shown it to others?
Jiao felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He watched Lu Er, who was so good-looking, open the tent and go out. He suddenly woke up and followed with a straight face.
The tight-fitting high-necked white sweater made Lu Wei look very good-looking. The long legs under the animal skin skirt were wearing animal leather shoes, and there was a tall and handsome orc beside him, which was very eye-catching.

With heavy eyes, he turned his head away, and said softly, "Me too."

They eat fatter than Xiaolu and sleep peacefully on the ground after eating; The gilt has a relatively stable temperament, and she has a little fear of the lion's breath naturally exuding from Jiao's body, and never dares to be presumptuous in front of Jiao.
Only Xiaolu and Jiao "know each other at a very young age" and are a little careless, so they don't hesitate to wipe their noses on his legs.
Jiao finished the last tool, knelt down and poked Xiaolu's forehead boredly, looked at this carefree piglet, and said in a sour tone: "You are very good, you have two little mothers before you grow up." Pigs are waiting for you."
His subbeast hasn't accepted him yet!Why is this stupid pig so happy!
Pulling Xiaolu's ears, Jiao was a little lost in thought: "When will he like me?"
"Who do you like?"
At this time, the curtain of the tent in the pigsty was lifted, and Lu Er walked in with a big guy in his arms. After listening to a few words, he asked curiously.
Jiao coughed: "Nothing."
He stood up and reached out to take the big red guy that Lu Wei was hugging. It felt a little heavy in his hand. He looked down at it like a big pottery, and couldn't help but wonder: "What is this?"
"Heater, let Xiaolu and them warm up later." Lu You took out a small white square towel from the pocket of the sweater and wiped off his sweat. When he saw Jiao's gaze fixed on his hand, he froze for a moment before remembering and explaining. After a while, "This is a handkerchief I made from the leftover scraps of my sweater... I don't need it if you mind."
Lu Er simply wanted to avoid wasting the remaining wool, so he simply re-wound it and asked Duo Yu to help weave it into a small handkerchief.
After coming to this world, the only thing that can be used to wipe the face is animal skin, which is thick and cannot be wiped clean.
The horn hair is of very good quality, so Lu You didn't think much about it. After weaving it into a handkerchief, she put it in her pocket and took it out to use at any time.
But he forgot that maybe the orc still has extra obsession with his hair, and he might not want him to use it as a handkerchief.
Jiao shook his head: "It's okay, you can use it."
Just now, seeing those hairs that belonged to him slide across Lu Er's forehead, behind the ears, and on his chin, he felt a little eager to move, and even felt a little jealous of those hairs that were woven into handkerchiefs.
——He has never touched the ears of this sub-beast!
— Forget it, after all, it is his Mao Mao, almost equal to himself...
Jiao tried his best to comfort himself, put the heater in the center of the pigsty, and let Xiao Lu come over curiously to sniff it, frowning slightly: "I'll move this next time."
Lu Wei didn't care too much, and agreed casually: "Okay, we will also put a heater in our tent, and I will ask you to move it when the time comes."
The stove is a new gadget that Lu Er has prepared for the winter.
From memory, the heat source for the orcs in the winter was the bonfire in the tent, throwing any kind of fuel into it, not only would the top of the tent be blackened, but it would also easily cause a fire.
Referring to the experience of modern society, Lu Wei specially made a simple heater in a pottery kiln. It is not very big, and it is easier to keep the fire than a campfire. You can also sit a small kettle on it to boil water.
For a tent as big as theirs, just two can guarantee basic warmth; one smaller tent is enough.
Lu Er has asked the pottery team in the tribe to work overtime to make sure that each orc's home can be allocated enough heaters.
Of course, these stoves were not given in vain, and the orcs who wanted the stove had to work in the tribe in addition to providing food.
In winter, there will be wild beasts that can't find food and are frantically hungry and come to the tribe. Although most of the wild beasts are looking for death, the old, weak, sick and disabled who have little fighting power are still in great danger when they encounter wild beasts.
The Redwood Tribe used to have simple fences, but they were arranged casually in the early years, with almost no protective effect—otherwise, the Little Stone Tribe would not have broken in so easily last time.
Lu You's plan is to repair the fence, not to mention how solid it is, at least it can serve as a barrier and a warning.
Repairing the fence was originally a job of exchanging heaters, but most of the orcs and sub-beasts in the tribe found time to help. In the past, the most idle people in the tribe did their best to work, even if they changed to heaters, it surprised Lu Er. In addition, I am satisfied with a lot.
——Now the collective concept of the Redwood Tribe is much stronger than before.
……
"Brother, father is calling you."
Lu Er opened the tent and saw the red-haired Mang waiting at the door, and gave him a sweet and sour preserved fruit, "What's the matter?"
Preserved fruit is the last harvest before he finally closes the experimental field. After picking all the berries in one go, they are steamed in a pan and dried in the sun to make a simple dessert.
Although there was no white sugar for seasoning, Lu Er soaked the preserved fruit in honey water, and the taste was not bad—the honey was delivered by Mang holding back his saliva.
Mang was fond of sweets, and happily took the candied fruit, with a shy smile on his face: "There are guests from other tribes."
Another tribe?Could it be the Little Rock tribe?
Lu You was slightly puzzled, and Jiao got out of the tent with a serious face: "I'll go too."
When they arrived at Teng's tent, Lu Er saw the guest from another tribe. He was a strong young man with a good appearance, with brown patterns tattooed on his body, which seemed different from that of the Xiaoshi tribe.
The man introduced himself, saying that he was from the Jufang tribe, his name was "Shi", and his prototype seemed to be a rhinoceros.
Compared with the Little Stone Tribe, the Giant Tooth Tribe is a little farther away from the Redwood Tribe, separated by a more dangerous hunting ground, so when Chong and Lie exchanged salt, they went to the closer Little Stone Tribe.
The tribal structure of the Giant Fang Tribe is similar to that of the Redwood Tribe, and the leader is also very honest. The relationship between the two tribes has always been good.
When I saw Lu You, I was amazed by Lu You who was wearing a high-collared white sweater, and she was very enthusiastic: "You are the witch doctor of the Redwood Tribe? You look so good!"
Ever since Lu Er put on a sweater and received countless such stares, she has long been used to numbness, and the expression on her face remains unchanged; the expression on the side corner is not very good-looking, with a trace of coldness and arrogance in her eyes looking at this life-or-death orc.
Real touch corner of the cold eyes, startled.He knew the role of the Redwood Tribe and knew that he couldn't beat him, so he lowered his enthusiasm a lot and kept a little distance, feeling a little regretful in his heart.
——Sigh, such an excellent sub-beast, there are already orcs around... The leader also said that he is the best single orc in the Jufang tribe, and it seems hopeless to expect him to hook up the witch doctor of the Redwood tribe.
It is impossible to go astray, so I had no choice but to put forward the purpose of my visit in a serious way: "After our tribe replaced your soybeans with salt, we liked it very much. I heard that you are all grown from the land. I would like to ask for advice. , how did it grow?"
They also tried to bury the soybeans in the soil, but the best ones just germinated and grew a seedling, which died soon.
Only then did they understand why the Redwood tribe was so generous in exchanging soybeans for them, and they were not at all worried that they would grow them by themselves. There is a unique secret to being sympathetic.
After the leader of the Giant Fang Tribe personally tested the soybeans, he quickly realized how much value this long-preserved food contained. He failed to grow it by himself, and immediately sent the orcs in the tribe to contact the Redwood Tribe.
After the leader confirmed that the witch doctor of the Redwood tribe was a sub-beast, he specially selected the strongest and most handsome single orc in the tribe to see if he could directly abduct the witch doctor of the Redwood tribe to them.
After all, I heard that the witch doctor's orc is dead!
In fact, he was full of confidence at first, but he didn't know until he arrived at the Redwood Tribe that the witch doctor's orc had come back alive?
When he saw the horns, his inflated confidence was immediately punctured - judging by the appearance and momentum of this orc, he really deserved to be a lion that could directly bite and kill a bull;
In comparison, I look like a bumpkin... How could the sub-beast not choose me!
Lu You doesn't care about real thoughts, but thinks about real problems.
At the beginning of planting, Lu Wei didn't consider other tribes, but only wanted to improve the situation of the Redwood Tribe first; after this year's hard work, the Redwood Tribe has cultivated a lot of arable land and gained a reputation. It is not surprising that people want to cultivate food.
Isn't that what the Little Stone Tribe came here for?
Lu Er glanced at Teng, Teng understood what he meant, and said generously: "The planting was researched by you alone, and you can decide."
There is no doubt about the angle.
Lu You didn't give away planting methods to the people of the Redwood Tribe, let alone other tribes, and frowned slightly: "Let's think about this matter—but I want to remind you that the cold season is coming soon, It's too late to plant now."
Shi nodded: "We have expected this."
After exchanging salt with Teng, the Jufang Tribe tried to grow beans after tasting the beans themselves, wasting a lot of time.
Now that it's the end of the warm season, they don't expect to be able to grow it, they just want to prepare in advance.
Lu Er mainly wanted to inquire about the value and crisis of trading with other tribes. In addition, planting food, something that can change the development process of the orcs, he also had to carefully balance the development of other tribes and the progress of the Redwood tribe.
Even in a primitive society, the accumulation of wealth will attract jealousy, but in an era without legal and moral constraints, the birth of crime will be easy.
Lu You didn't want him to work so hard to guide the Redwood Tribe to the path of civilization, only to be swallowed up by other stronger and more bottomless tribes.
In fact, he said that he would stay in the Redwood Tribe for a while, and Lu Er could give him an answer slowly.
Hearing what he said, Teng frowned: "I'll find an orc to accompany you."
Shi Shi waved his hand: "Don't bother, I will go around casually, and I will hunt the prey by myself."
Teng gave him a surprised look: "Yes, I am responsible for the safety of the tribe."
After all, he is a foreign orc. Since the Redwood Tribe and the Jufang Tribe have been in harmony for a few times, and the relationship is not bad, Teng can allow Shi to stay in their tribe temporarily, but he must send an orc to watch him to ensure that he will not sneak into the tribe. Violation of the safety of the Redwood Tribe.
Needless to say, the safety of the sub-beasts and their cubs, now that their tribe has arable land, food, and pottery, it is even more important to protect the real estate in the tribe.
Reality:"……"
——There are some things in your tribe who don't know who, do you need to be so defensive?
