MTL - Be a Leader In a Primitive Tribe-Chapter 24
The people of the tribe ran down from the mountain, cheering to welcome the return of the leader and others, but when they saw the two big wild boars with tusks, they all backed away in fright.
Zhuang, Hua and the others were all amused and laughed.
Two wild boars were placed in an unoccupied bamboo house.
Sang Yu ordered Liu to get some hay to spread in the bamboo house, and then put the little piglet who had been tossing all the way on the hay.
The little piglet was hungry for a day, and after being released, it went straight to the sow's belly and ate it happily.
The poor wild sow was trapped in the pit and didn't eat much for several days. After running all the way, she lay on the ground so tired that she groaned and screamed.
Que is the captain of the breeding team. Sang Yu understands that she is tired from the journey and asks Liu to help her with the work.
Before the heavy snowfall, I made several large earthenware pots and used one to cook pig food. I picked up some wild vegetables around the tribe, chopped them with a stone knife and threw them in for cooking. I also broke off a few pieces of cassava and threw them in. After cooking, let them cool down and feed them to wild boars. .
Of course, this treatment is only given to sows.
It has been hungry for several days, has been running all the way, and is still breastfeeding, so it has to be raised well, the piglets need to drink milk, and the future pig business plan of the tribe cannot do without it.
In fact, wild boars eat very miscellaneous, young leaves, nuts, berries, grass blades and grass roots are their staple food.
Not only that, hares, mice, snakes, lizards, worms, etc., the young of many animals can become their food.
It can be said that they will eat everything that enters their mouths, which is very easy to raise.
Sang Yu explained this series of things to Que.
Previously, there were no animals to raise, and the sparrow had been working with the hunting team. I felt that it was useless to be the captain of the breeding team.
Now that the leader made such an arrangement, she was very excited, and finally started to do serious things in the future.
Regarding the matters to be paid attention to in breeding, she firmly remembered what the leader explained.
Sang Yu also told her that the domestication of wild boars is just the beginning, and there will be cattle, sheep and horses in the future. Que felt more and more that the task on his shoulders was heavy, so he cheered up.
After explaining about the wild boar, Sang Yu took the silkworm eggs picked up on the way back to another diabolo house.
Yu followed behind, following suit.
She was very curious about these insect eggs, but she didn't dare to approach them.
Sang Yu was a little amused when she saw it. Such a brave person who fights monsters is afraid of these little eggs and bugs.
"How did this make your clothes?"
Hearing the other party's question, Sang Yu's brows and eyes widened, and she turned to look at her.
This is what a child should look like, keeping curiosity instead of being indifferent to everything.
"These little black grains will turn into worms when the weather gets warmer. When the worms are full, they will spit out threads that can be woven into clothes."
Sang Yu patiently simplified these tedious procedures and told the children in front of her.
Now the weather is cold outside, and the silkworm eggs are not easy to hatch. Otherwise, if they hatch at this time, these newborn silkworms will all die if they cannot withstand the cold when it snows.
Just wait until the outside temperature drops below five or six degrees Celsius, and then put the silkworm eggs in the cellar to ensure that the silkworm eggs do not die.
After arranging these things, the two of them were going to the kitchen when Yu, who was silent at the side, suddenly said: "Tomorrow I will castrate the little pig."
Sang Yu was startled, and said, "Do you know what castration is, and how to do it?"
The little girl shook her head, "Anyway, you will teach me when the time comes."
"That's true, but I'd rather know why you want to do this?"
Yu looked at Sang Yu, and under the reflection of the fire in his eyes, black and white were distinct.
"No reason, just want to do it."
Sang Yu was at a loss for words immediately, and changed the subject, "Little pig has been frightened by the tossing all the way, wait a few days before eunuching—let's go, go to dinner."
It was already night, and Yuan had already cooked hot soup, inviting everyone to eat.
But it was only three days without soup, and everyone missed it so much that they couldn't even imagine how those days passed.
Everyone drank soup around the fire, and Zhuang told the remaining tribesmen what happened to the old site, and he was speechless.
Except for a few children, no one within two meters of him dared to get close, for fear of splashing into his bowl.
The first year of high school heard that they were catching wild boars, and slapped their thighs, regretting why they couldn't follow.
Zhuang was grinning, his self-satisfaction made people want to beat him up.
"No, I can't defend the tribe no matter what next time, what does it look like for me to stay in the tribe as a big man." Looking at Zhuang's smile, Gao felt more unconvinced.
Hua next to him rolled his eyes at him: "So what about a man, if you can carry a basket of cassava, I can too, why are we women weaker than you!"
Gao Wenyan was startled, and subconsciously looked at Sang Yu, seeing her drinking soup with her head down, without any expression, and hurriedly defended.
"That's not what I mean. The women in our tribe can hold up half the sky. No, no, no, a piece of sky, how dare I compare with you, I just want you not to be so tired."
When Sang Yu heard this, she raised her head in surprise.
Gao said with a flattering expression, "Boss, I definitely didn't want to make the women of our tribe work so hard, so I said that."
Sang Yu nodded: "It's good for you to have such awareness."
When she first came here, she wanted to form an all-round team. Everyone pushed one by one, and they were unwilling to join. Now they are all scrambling to go out to ask for it. If there is a war in the future, I believe they will also have the same attitude.
It may not be appropriate to be warlike, but daring to fight is definitely an important factor for a tribe to survive.
Gao was overjoyed to be recognized by the leader, and drank three bowls of soup in a row.
Everyone went out for three days and came back. The tasks were completed, and they felt happy in their hearts. They ate and chatted, and some even danced the dance handed down from the previous tribe around the fire.
Sang Yu stared at the fire in front of her in a daze, but she was thinking about the rations for this year.
Snow is coming and it's no longer safe to go hunting.
The tribe's current food mainly depends on dozens of traps dug in the western mountains and forests, and the daily harvest is not fixed, there is more or less.
I went to the old site yesterday and got nothing. Except for the eight large baskets of cassava, this winter is bound to be more difficult.
Although Sang Yu was in a hurry, she still had one hole card to show. She had observed the river that ran through the middle of the Xindi Plain before. There were fish in the river, and there were quite a few of them.
It's just because I haven't made fishing rods and nets, and I'm busy with other things. So Sang Yu hasn't set his sights there yet.
But if the traps can't catch food when the snow comes, maybe the river will come in handy.
Thinking of this, her anxiety was only half relieved.
Look at the weather, it will snow anytime.
For safety reasons, Sang Yu ordered to start tomorrow. Except for the hunting team that patrols the traps on time every morning, everyone else stays in the tribe and is not allowed to go out at will, and work nearby.
The nearest job is to build a farm.
After the new year, the work of planting and breeding will be fully carried out. So before that, the farm and land should be arranged.
Although the litter of wild boars caught yesterday can be temporarily arranged to live in a bamboo house, where humans and animals live together, the taste is not pleasant, and it also affects hygiene.
After the farm is built, they have to be moved to a new nest.
The pottery work of the three Daxue sisters has also been temporarily put on hold. Because pottery is made in winter, except for the cold palms, there is no way to make a good shape.
Most importantly, the cold weather would cause the embryos of pottery to crack, so Sangyu asked them to stop working temporarily.
In this way, everyone in the tribe was idle.
Sangyu began to arrange for everyone to plan the planting farm, do it first, and stop work when it snows.
The location of the farm is at the foot of the mountain in the east, some distance from the bamboo house where I live, not too close or far, so it is convenient to take care of and will not be affected by the smell.
As for the planting field, the past plains at the foot of the mountain can be planted, as long as the weeds and plants on it are cleaned up.
So the team was divided into two groups of people, one group of people went to build pig pens and sheep pens, and some people went to **** the ground.
Because of the foundation of the previous bamboo house, it is much easier to build the pig pen and sheep pen.
Considering that bamboo is used for building, which is easy to rot in the wind and sun, Sang Yu asked everyone to cut the stones into squares from the foot of the mountain and build a stone wall.
Laying stone walls is a big project, and Sang Yu doesn't rush them.
Compared with the pig and sheep pen, the speed of land reclamation is much faster.
Although there is no **** and sickle, stone knives and stone axes can still play a role, and it can be pulled out by hand.
The weeds were pulled up and burned directly, and the land of about five acres was cleared up soon.
It was only then that Sang Yu realized that the slash-and-burn farming mentioned in the previous book meant this, but it was a pity that there were no knives at this time. If the stone knife is also considered a knife, it can also make up such a meaning.
The ash from the burning of weeds is sprinkled on the newly reclaimed land, and then turned into fertilizer and returned to the earth.
Sang Yu plans to wait for spring to see if he can fish some silt from the river and transport it to these fields to increase their fertility.
When more livestock are raised in the future, there will be another source of fertility.
But the question is, where to get the seeds after the ground has bloomed.
Right now, the only two seeds the tribe has are jicama and cassava, and the collection of other seeds has been further strengthened.
These are issues that need to be considered in the future development of planting industry.
Sang Yu didn't want to embarrass herself, so she would wait until spring came to think about this matter. This winter, you have to give your brain a good rest.
On the other side, Yu took Sang Yu's original knife and burned it red on the fire.
Before her eyes were four young boars.
A group of women from the tribe stood behind her and gestured, while the men stood at a distance.
As the instructor, Sang Yu's head is a bit big, but she doesn't know how to castrate a pig.
"You just cut a knife on each side of the two sides, and open two openings to take out the contents."
Sang Yu said vaguely.
At this time, Yu could also see that his teacher was actually just a language giant. After confirming that he only needed to remove the two **** inside, he no longer consulted her, and directly raised the knife and slashed between the two balls. Make an opening.
As the little piglet grunted, she took out the thing by hooking each side of her slender fingers, and the sharp nails ran across the seminiferous duct, cutting it off.
Then apply the hemostatic medicine made of incense.
finished.
The whole process takes less than a minute.
Everyone's eyes widened.
Sang Yu felt her heart pounding, she was too handsome.
