Self-clothing and adequate food and clothing through crossing

"Patriarch, you need to send someone back to reclaim a few pieces of wasteland. The soil should not be too dry, preferably this kind of yellow soil." Shang Chen turned his head and said to the patriarch that a piece of land has been reclaimed yesterday, because the tribe has been planting this kind of land these days. There are crops like that, so now we need to reclaim three fields.

"Don't worry, when I came out, I already sent people to cultivate. Didn't you tell us a few days ago that we want yellow soil." The patriarch is the patriarch, and the arrangements have already been made, but is this because you have too much confidence in yourself?Shang Chen secretly felt good about himself.

"Brother, when will the sweet potatoes be ready to eat? Will it take a long time?" Xi Rui and Brown followed Shang Chen around, staring at the sweet potato leaves and frowning.It's still leaves, and this one needs to eat the roots, so I don't know how long it will take.

"Well, it takes a long time. Sweet potatoes can't be eaten until October. They can be stored for a long time and can be made into a lot of food. The taste of sweet potatoes roasted over fire is especially good, sweet and fragrant. During the cold season Nesting by the fire, roasting sweet potatoes while warming the fire, it feels so tempting, I just want to eat it when I think about it.” Shang Chen started to salivate as he talked, he liked to eat roasted sweet potatoes very much in his previous life, Especially the sweet potatoes roasted in the firewood are much better than those roasted in the oven on the street.Although there would be a lot of firewood ashes on the hands of the sweet potatoes roasted with firewood, but Shang Chen didn't care about these, as he was a farmer's son afraid of ashes.And if you burn firewood to keep warm in winter, you will definitely have a lot of ashes on your body, even on your head, so now the farmhouse will wear a tattered and dirty clothes on the outside to warm up the fire, and the good clothes inside cannot be exposed outside casually. , otherwise a spark would pop up, and a hole would be broken in the clothes immediately.

"Ah, it really will take a long time, it's October, and it's only May now." When Xi Rui heard that it would take five months before she could eat, she immediately lost her mind.

"Roasted with fire? Does it taste better than potatoes? I think baked potatoes are already good, but are sweet potatoes really that sweet?" Qiudong listened with his ears up, and liked to eat potatoes cooked by fire. Said that roasted sweet potatoes are delicious, and reacted faster than foodies this summer, Shang Chen felt that Qiudong was already salivating just like himself.

"Of course, the taste of roasted sweet potatoes is much sweeter than that of roasted potatoes, and it is not as hard and soft as potatoes. I believe that no one will not like to eat it. Don't worry, let's find more sweet potato vines, maybe There are also other places. When the sweet potatoes for the tribe are planted, we can look around when we have nothing to do, and then plant a little bit near our home. Sweet potatoes grow very well. As long as the yellow soil is used, there will be a good harvest, and no fertilizer is needed. There are too many." Shang Chen felt that he had found a bosom friend, squatting down and muttering to Qiu Dong, the more things he likes to eat, the better, as the cold season is so long, it is estimated that there will be a lot of time to bake sweet potatoes.

"You guys are so good or bad, you actually hide from me and whisper in secret. It's really sad." Jin Xia walked over angrily and stared at the two of them, feeling that she was rejected and ignored, very sad.

"Who is avoiding you? It's because you're too serious about your work and don't want to bother you." Qiudong squinted at this summer when he suddenly jumped over. This guy didn't eat the most, and he dared to call himself bad.

"Then what do you guys want to do, I want to know." This summer has no intention of giving up at all, just now they clearly heard what the two said about sweet potatoes, their own house, etc., and when they heard it, they wanted to do something bad in private.

"I really lost to you. We just said that this sweet potato is very delicious. After the tribe doesn't need to grow any more, we will plant a little bit near our home." Qiu Dong rolled his eyes and surrendered.

"Oh, oh, this is good, this is good, I like it, we will work together when the time comes, the work is almost done these days, and it is estimated that the tribe's sweet potatoes will be planted tomorrow." Eating, the eyes are bright, ready to move.

The orc's sense of hearing has always been very strong. The three men squeezed their heads and lowered their heads and muttered in a low voice, thinking that others must be busy working, and no one must have heard it. I don't know if I know these three men very well. Although the orcs seemed to be working hard, they heard every word the three of them said.They shook their heads helplessly, they really convinced them, why are they so confident, there are many orcs here, so I am so worried about them, not that there is nothing about this kind of sweet potato that cannot be grown privately, but that they have no defense at all Consciousness is often all about feeling good about yourself.

It is foreseeable that these three men will be regarded more strictly by their partners in the future.

When returning home in the evening, Shang Chen and his group turned into the woods along an seldom-traveled path, wanting to see if there were any small animals falling into the trap dug in the morning.This trap was dug by Shang Chen, Qiu Dong, this summer, and Dad. Not only did the orcs not participate, but they were not allowed to watch when digging. The orcs are too dependent. The second is that once they heard about this in Qiudong, the excitement never subsided. They even dreamed of catching an animal to eat by themselves, so there was this matter of refusing the orcs to help dig the trap. Son.However, they are not allowed to help when digging, and they can still be allowed to come when fetching animals. If you catch a few animals, maybe you can feel proud.

A total of four traps were dug, two meters deep and one and a half meters wide. Many dead branches and leaves were built on them. There were many sharp barbs inserted on the walls and bottom of the traps, as well as sharp stones and wooden sticks. Once an animal falls into it, it is very difficult to escape or survive.Of course, this place belongs to the bushes of the tribe, very close to the tribe, only small animals come in and out here, and those ferocious beasts will not come here, so Shang Chen is not worried at all that large beasts will fall into it.Such traps were originally designed only for small animals.

"Oh, come here, there is one here that hasn't died, hurry up." Qiudong squatted next to the third trap and looked, startled, the animals inside saw someone coming, and all of a sudden huddled weak Struggling like hell.

Long Che grabbed it and saw that it was a small animal weighing about [-] jin. Its thigh was injured and was pierced by a sharp barb. There was also a wound on its stomach, which bled a lot and had no strength left to struggle. .

"I don't know if it can be saved. This is a female beast that is pregnant with a cub. It's a pity to die. Let's take a look." Long Che reached out to touch its huge belly, it was obviously pregnant with a cub.

"Ah, really? Hahaha... That's great. I didn't expect to have this harvest. However, this wound is a bit serious. Let's go back and pull out the thorn, and then apply the medicine. Give him food to eat." Shang Chen checked the wound, there is a possibility of treatment, the pregnant female animal should have a strong desire to survive, hoping to survive, full of cubs, it is pitiful to die, although the cub is also raised Come to eat, but it is still a bit unbearable to die in the stomach.

"Hehe, we succeeded. Not only did we catch nine dead ones, big and small, but one was alive. If we can save them, we might even be able to raise cubs. It's really great. We don't need to rely on orcs in the future, and we can also live on our own. You can rely on yourself to eat meat." This summer waved her fist and announced loudly that if she had a tail, it might have been up to the sky.

"Of course, don't look at who made the trap. Although it's smaller, it's better than nothing, and the most important thing is that there is no danger. There is no need to compete with fierce beasts, and it doesn't take so much time. We I have more time to do other things." Qiudong is usually quite calm, but seeing that he has caught so many small animals this time, he couldn't help jumping up and down, looking at Qiu Hao All with obvious embarrassment.

"That's right. This method is indeed very good. It's a bit obvious. Especially for men, it's absolutely safe. This is something that orc hunting can't do. But there is one thing I have to remind you. Although the trap is very good, it takes a long time." Now, small animals will also become smarter, and will subconsciously avoid traps, so that fewer and fewer animals will be caught. Therefore, when you set traps, try to make the traps as natural as possible, so that animals will not see them. This is a trap." Although Shang Chen's father was also very happy, unlike these juniors, he shook his head and analyzed seriously.

"That's right. It's best not to set traps in one place for too long. Change the place every once in a while, and change the coverings from time to time, so that animals won't be easy to see." Qiu Hao and Tuo Lei picked up the trap. The animals on the inside were trapped, and then fixed again. The barbs and sharp wooden sticks inside were all reset one by one.

"Let's go, I'm going back. I can make some more Shuangpi Nai today. There is not much honey left. If you see it, get it back. Non-sweet Shuang Pi Nai is not delicious." I really like to eat double-skin milk. When I came out this morning, I wanted to eat it, but it was too late. I can make some to eat when I go back at night.

"Understood, there are still honeycombs. Oh, it would be great if I could make my own sweets. After all, this is not a long-term solution, and there is no guarantee that honey will always be available." Torrey expressed the common aspiration of everyone, no matter what It’s better to rely on yourself, always rely on external forces, and there is no guarantee after all, just like the current crops and animal husbandry, you can gradually get rid of relying on wild animals to survive, and have your own fixed harvest, so you can have confidence.

"Don't worry, when we find a crop called wheat, we can make sweet maltose. Then you can eat as much as you want, but you must have wheat. Take your time, and you can make it." One day we will have sweets." Shang Chen said to everyone with a smile, it is only a matter of time, even if this tribe does not have wheat, other tribes will definitely have it, because he has already discovered a lot of daily crops here And plants, I believe there will be wheat.
