The departure of the bark did not affect the inherent life of the Qingque tribe.
Even with the negative teaching material of Tree Bark, everyone in the Qingque tribe recognized and supported the tribe even more.
The harvested rapeseed can be finished in one more battle. Han Cheng was not in a hurry to let others plow the harvested rapeseed field.
This year, a lot of rapeseed fell to the ground. The dormancy period of rapeseed is very short, and now there are already small rapeseeds popping out of the ground.
These new rapeseeds are difficult to flower and bear fruit, but they are still very good for cooking.
The foundations of the newly built houses in the courtyard have been laid, and the stone walls are more than one meter above the ground.
Further up, you can use the block building method to build an earth wall.
Just when everyone was working hard and preparing to level the earth wall at once, they were stopped by the Son of God.
Under Han Cheng's guidance, everyone began to carry load after load of earth from outside and put it into the room that already had an outline.
This layer of soil is very necessary. The room is on a high ground and is less susceptible to moisture.
The millet is growing well and the grass seedlings are green. The only uncomfortable thing is that there is a lot of grass in the ground.
At this time, there were no hoes, let alone pesticides, so all that could be done was to pull it out with hands, or squat in the ground with a small bone shovel or a small stone shovel tied to a wooden handle.
The bone shovel and stone shovel should not be too wide. If they are too wide, it will easily hurt the seedlings.
Don't say that the Qingque tribe doesn't have hoes. At this time, in fact, even if they have hoes, they won't be of much use.
It’s not that the hoe doesn’t work well, it’s that the planting method of Qingque Tribe’s millet is not conducive to weeding with the hoe.
Except for a very small part of these millets, which are grown using the furrow method, the rest are sown.
The seedlings are scattered randomly and the hoe is too big. At this time, it is better to pull the weeds by hand and shovel them with a small bone shovel, which is more convenient and safer.
There is a reason why we do not all use furrow planting. It is because it is too troublesome to use a bone shovel to dig a series of furrows on the plowed ground and then spread the seeds by hand along the furrow.
So except for the first part, the rest are all sowers.
These methods are convenient when planting, but more troublesome when taking care of them.
The columbine and the hoe must be produced as soon as possible.
It's okay to say that the Qingque tribe has very little cultivated land at this time. They are busy with work. After the cultivated area is greatly increased in the coming year, if they continue to plant like this, part of the farmland will definitely be deserted.
Han Cheng thought about this and wrote down two more things on the pottery board.
These two things need to be done as soon as possible, at least without delaying next year's millet planting.
The grass pulled out from the fields was not wasted. It was piled up in piles in the seedling field. After the day's work was over, someone would collect these weeds.
Some clean and good grass was used to feed rabbits and chickens, and the rest was piled in a large pit near the tribe and adjacent to the field.
This pit was newly dug when collecting soil for building the house, and it has not yet been fully formed.
Weeds were piled at the north end of the pit, while the south end was still used by the tribesmen to take soil.
Wu once asked Han Cheng about this matter. In his opinion, these grasses are very good for lighting fires after they are dried, but now they are piled in pits, which is a bit of a waste.
Retting?
The witch pondered in his mind the new word he learned from the Son of God.
There are so many grasses. Is there any difference between burning them with fire and putting them into the ground, and soaking them with water and putting them into the ground?
And it seems even more troublesome.
With Han Cheng, a time traveler, the Qingque tribe's starting point for farming is very high.
We did not start from the initial slash-and-burn cultivation, and then gain experience in intensive farming step by step after years of exploration. Instead, we tried our best to achieve the goal in one step under limited conditions.
The witches, including many other people from the Qingque tribe, who have never seen what crops look like on unfertilized land, actually do not quite believe Han Cheng's statement about the important role of fertilization in crops.
This is not to say that they do not trust Han Cheng, otherwise they will all follow Han Cheng's instructions, but it is a common problem of most people, they always feel that seeing is believing and hearing is false.
After Wu thought about it, he came to Han Cheng and expressed his thoughts.
His idea is very simple. He wants to wait until next year to plant crops, leave a piece of land without fertilizing, and compare it with the surrounding crops.
Han Cheng, who understood what Wu meant, smiled secretly and readily agreed with Wu's idea.
As a person from later generations, he knows best whether the land needs to be fertilized or not.
If it weren't for chemical fertilizers and excellent varieties, it would be impossible for future generations to achieve such astonishing yields per acre.
It is good to set aside a piece of land for comparison in this way. It can make Wu and others realize the importance of fertilizing the land more deeply, and they can do this better in future planting.
In fact, it doesn't matter whether Han Chengtong disagrees with setting aside some land for comparison, because the Qingque tribe's land will have explosive growth in the coming year, and it is obviously unrealistic to want to cultivate everything like this intensively.
The accumulated fertilizer can only be applied to a part of the land.
One thing is that the exiled bark was actually right. The second senior brother really likes to take a nap now.
Sometimes I can fall asleep while talking to others.
As soon as it got dark at night, he lay down on the bed and fell asleep. He didn't wake up much all night, and his spouse didn't touch him much.
Sometimes his spouse couldn't hold back while listening to the primitive songs coming from next door, so the second senior brother would just sit on the edge of the kang, lean there and not move, and let his spouse do it by himself.
Not only that, even eating is not as delicious as before.
Second Senior Brother always likes to nap, so no one paid much attention to this matter.
Han Cheng was busy thinking about how to get the hoe out.
It is necessary to get out the hoe. On the one hand, it can be used to weed the fields, and on the other hand, it can be used to reclaim wasteland and plow the ground.
Compared with the bone shovel, the hoe has greater advantages in turning the ground.
He was aware of the second senior brother's situation, but he didn't take it seriously either.
It is said that spring brings sleepiness and autumn brings fatigue, summer takes a nap, and winter brings drowsiness. Who hasn’t felt sleepy and had a bad appetite?
This situation lasted for almost a month, and Han Cheng finally realized that something was unusual.
After such a long time passed, the second senior brother was not only no longer addicted to drowsiness, but also became less and less energetic. He looked a little dazed, as if he couldn't wake up.
This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that he looks a lot thinner, his complexion is yellow and there is little blood.
Even my favorite sling is not something I have much interest in throwing away.
