Chapter 168 Weed spikes? Millet!

"no%#@"

At this time, the eldest brother and the leader of the Green Tribe did not have the same tacit understanding as they had at the party, and each of them had to compete with each other.

The eldest brother shook his head repeatedly and expressed his thoughts to the leader of the green tribe with gestures and language mixed with Mandarin.

At the same time, he picked out some food that he didn't like and placed it in another pile. Among them, most of them were the grass-like things brought by the Green Tribe.

The people of my tribe are not birds, so what is the use of these grass seeds?

“#¥2%!”

The leader of the Green Tribe had been paying attention to the actions of the senior brother. When he saw that the senior brother had deliberately added these things and picked them out one by one, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

He quickly squatted down, held down the picking hand of the senior brother with one hand, and grabbed a handful of grass ears that the senior brother had picked out and put aside with the other hand, shook his head, and tried his best to praise the senior brother.

This stuff is delicious.

Seeing that the elder brother was still looking at him with inquiring eyes, the leader of the Green Tribe was also a ruthless character. He immediately took heart, picked up a grass spike full of grass seeds, and put it directly into his mouth.

He endured the grinding and hardness of the grass seeds and looked like he was enjoying it to the fullest. After chewing for a while, he straightened his neck and swallowed it. Then he patted his chest and praised the delicious taste of the grass seeds to his senior brother.

The senior brother was made hesitant by the performance of the leader of the green tribe. Could it be that something like grass spikes that he had never seen before was really so delicious?

With this thought in mind, he picked one up from the ground and brought it to his mouth.

When the leader of the green tribe saw the elder brother, he also wanted to try it. He stretched out his hand to stop it, but the elder brother had already taken a tentative bite.

"Bah! Bah!"

After taking one bite, the senior brother vomited continuously and angrily bit off a piece of grass in his hand, which was extremely unpalatable, and threw it out randomly.

“#¥&*!”

After the eldest brother spit out the grass seeds that were extremely uncomfortable to chew and had a terrible taste, he yelled angrily at the leader of the green tribe who looked a little embarrassed.

Then he got up and brought a clay pot for water, and placed it next to the pile of food he had picked out from the Green Tribe. This meant that the food brought by the Green Tribe could only be replaced by a clay pot like this.

The leader of the Green Tribe had long coveted the large cooking vat used by the Qingque Tribe. When he saw that the senior brother was only willing to use a clay pot in exchange for the food they had worked so hard to fetch, he naturally disagreed.

Wuliwala said, dancing and gesticulating.

The eldest brother also danced and danced without any sign of weakness.

A good deal made the two of them act like a dance party.

Han Cheng stood at the entrance of the cave and almost couldn't hold back his laughter as he looked at the two people dancing together when they disagreed.

General Fu ran over, holding in his mouth the ear of grass that was thrown far away by his senior brother. He ran to Han Cheng and waggled his tail to reward him.

This guy was trained by Han Cheng to be really good at holding things in his mouth.

Han Cheng, who was watching the original dance from a distance, reached out and took the grass spike from General Fu's mouth without paying much attention, holding the pole in his hand and playing with it.

After playing with it for a while, the movements in his hands suddenly stopped.

He stared blankly at the ear of grass in his hand that was missing a quarter, and light gradually began to appear in his dull eyes.

After a brief period of sluggishness, his movements quickly became faster, and his hands seemed to be trembling slightly as he held the grass spike and turned it over and over.

The grass spike is about five or six centimeters long and a little over one centimeter in diameter. Its color is the withered yellow color that appears after the plant dries up. On top of the grass spike, numerous grass seeds of the same color are densely packed.

It looks very familiar, like dried foxtail grass, but it is thicker and longer than ordinary foxtail grass, and has more grass seeds on it.

It is also like the millet that stands in the ground piece by piece with its head lowered in later generations, but compared with those crops that bear heavy fruits and are extremely humble, they are far inferior.

Han Cheng suppressed the unbearable joy in his heart, forced himself to calm down, and got some grass seeds from the ears of grass that looked like foxtail grass and millet.

Then pinch it with your fingernails and carefully peel off the shell.

As a result, three in a row were empty and deflated before Han Cheng could peel them apart.

The fourth one finally had fruit, and a small, light yellow ball appeared in his hand.

Although there is only a tiny bit and the yellow color is not pure, Han Cheng feels that it is more dazzling than gold!

He held the tiny grass seed that he had stripped off his clothes in the palm of his hand, raised it to eye level, and looked back and forth carefully as if he were looking at a supreme treasure. He felt that all the scenery was not as good as the small grass seed in his palm.

Grass grains are moving.

A red shadow quickly enlarged in front of his eyes. As soon as his palms became warm, the red shadow disappeared, followed by the small yellow grass seed that Han Cheng regarded as the supreme scenery.

Fu Jiang clicked his lips, feeling that there was no taste at all, and shook his head in boredom, not knowing what this stupid master was looking at.

Han Cheng ignored the silly dog-like lucky general, but looked at the missing piece of grass in his hand, giggling silently.

Millet! This is millet!

Millet, whose scientific name is millet or millet, is an annual herbaceous plant that is closely related to or evolved from foxtail grass. It is the main crop in the Yellow River Basin.

Especially in the early days of the Chinese nation, millet made a great contribution. The Xia and Shang civilizations can be called millet civilization, a proper staple food!

His original plan was to wait until the Qingque tribe became safer and more prosperous, and after he had grown taller and improved the weapons of the Qingque tribe, he would start taking the young men from the tribe and leave the tribe to expand his search.

range to look for traces of some things. Among them, millet and other foods that can be used as staple foods are the most important ones.

Although rapeseed is good, it cannot be used as a staple food. The oil extracted from rapeseed does not taste as good as animal fat oil. If the Qingque tribe wants to live a stable life and have no worries about food and clothing, the cultivation of staple food must be carried out.

.

Life is always full of surprises. He did not expect that before he could put this plan that he had conceived in his mind for a long time into action, Guzi would appear in front of him in such an unexpected way!

The dance battle between the eldest brother and the leader of the green tribe was still going on over there. It seemed that the eldest brother was at a disadvantage and he picked up another clay pot and placed it in front of the pile of food.

The leader of the Green Tribe was determined to replace the large cooking vat. After some awkward dancing, he also made some concessions and said that he did not need the rest of the pottery and only needed to give him the large vat.

.

The larger the pottery, the more difficult it is to make.

Although the eldest brother is not very involved in pottery making, he still knows this common sense through his ears and eyes. In addition, he is angry at the Green Tribe leader's attempt to use grass seeds as food in exchange, so naturally he refuses to exchange with him.
