Chapter 43 The plan to increase the population - eat more kidneys
It was much easier to peel the rapeseed. After drying for two days in this open space that could barely be called a 'field', the rapeseed was completely burnt.
At noon on the third day, under the guidance of Han Cheng, everyone once again picked up the multi-functional weapon - the wooden stick, hit the dried rapeseed, turned it over to dry it, and after a while, called on the children in the tribe.
They jumped up and down for a while.
After doing this twice, the rapeseed pods that had been scorched by the sun burst open one after another, releasing the rapeseed they had nurtured for a long time.
There are few things, so everything is easy to do. I put the empty rapeseed tree to one side, passed the empty rapeseed pods that fell on it with my hands, and then used Han Cheng's broom tied with suitable weeds to leave them on the ground.
rapeseed piled up
Empty rape pods, fallen rape leaves and broken stems are lighter than rapeseed. Use the tip of a broom to sweep gently to separate these items from the rapeseed.
After doing this two or three times, the big residue will be gone, and the remaining fine particles, such as the white film inside the rapeseed pods and some fine leaves, cannot be swept out this way.
It was easy to get them out. Han Cheng swung the broom from side to side, and the wind brought out blew them away.
After working like this for a while, the clean rapeseed came out.
However, freshly beaten rapeseeds cannot be put directly into jars because they contain a lot of moisture. If they are put directly into jars, they will become moldy and spoiled. They need to be dried in the sun.
The cleaned rapeseed was spread out to dry in the small scene in front of the cave entrance. Han Cheng specially sent two children to guard it to prevent birds from eating it, even if the totem worshiped by their tribe was a blue bird.
Three days later, Han Cheng looked at most of the jar of rapeseeds and felt happy. From time to time, he inserted his hand into the jar, grabbed a handful of rapeseeds, loosened his hands slightly, and felt the small and smooth rapeseeds slipping from his fingers.
, not to mention how beautiful it is.
But that doesn’t mean that you can plant rapeseed now. There is another important issue that needs to be considered, and that is land.
If we don’t solve the problem of land, it will be useless to have seeds. (Suddenly an idea flashed in my mind...hehehehe...)
However, land reclamation is also a troublesome matter. Previously, it took a lot of effort to just open up an open space of 11 to 2 square meters. This was done by specially selecting a place with no big trees and few shrubs and weeds.
.
The cultivation of rapeseed requires a certain scale. In this first season, at least two or three acres of land must be obtained, right? That is more than 1,500 square meters.
Judging from the conditions of the forests everywhere near the cave, even if we get it by this time next year, we won’t be able to get the rapeseed to mature again!
It is indeed a thorny road. Living in this era, every step forward requires a lot of effort and overcoming many difficulties. Not to mention the rest, even farming is such a difficulty.
Han Cheng looked at the jar containing rapeseed not far away with a bowl on top and a sealed jar, and couldn't sleep for most of the night.
It was impossible to chop down trees with simple tools such as stone axes, and Han Cheng said he would never do it.
It would be great if Bald Qiang was here and asked his senior brothers to help him guard against the two bears that always trouble him and hinder his logging. He could use his small electric saw to give full play to his talents in logging, three times a day.
Korean CD is happy to serve him a barbecue!
Han Cheng smiled bitterly, he was almost crazy. If he wanted to be bald, he would not be as reliable as his senior brother who could become a real senior brother.
Not to mention the rest, just the Ruyi Golden Cudgel weighing one hundred and eight thousand kilograms, which can kill ten thousand monsters with one stab at the cave in the south mountain and another ten thousand at the cave in the north mountain, can sweep through thousands of armies in one go.
All the nuisance trees were cleared away...
Han Cheng fell asleep very late. The next day, he did not make salt or make adobe kilns to study pottery. Instead, he led some people from the tribe, holding something that could barely be called a stone ax, toward
The entrance to the tribe's cave was in the forest slightly to the west, and then he took the lead and smashed the stone ax in his hand against the leafy tree...
This rice is so delicious...
Naturally, the matter of the True Fragrance Emperor will not happen to Han Cheng, well... at least not this time.
He led the tribe members and used stone axes to hit the section of the tree that was close to the ground. He did not intend to cut down the tree, but to peel off a section of the bark.
As long as the tree is surrounded and the bark is peeled off, except for a few trees that are strong, the rest of the trees will not be able to bear it.
It won't take long for it to wither and die completely.
After they died and dried, in autumn when the weeds on the ground withered and turned yellow, Han Cheng lit a fire, and these guys had no choice but to obediently turn into ashes and then become fertilizer.
The Qingque tribe, under the leadership of the time-traveling person Shenzi Han Cheng, has taken a strong and great step in the direction of slash-and-burn cultivation!
"There are not enough manpower!"
This is not the first time that Han Cheng has expressed such emotion. As the number of things that need to be produced increases, the shortage of labor has become more and more obvious, which has deeply restricted the development of the Qingque tribe.
In order to solve the problem of lack of labor, Han Cheng took out all the kidneys he had saved for two days, mixed them with other meat, and specially cooked a pot of soup for the lame and adult members of the tribe who had wives.
Men eat.
That night, the primitive songs in the tribe were indeed much louder than in the past.
Han Cheng, who was lying on his bed, was secretly having fun, as if his conspiracy had succeeded.
However, his happiness disappeared soon and turned into a long sigh.
Because this method of increasing the population through childbearing alone is too slow. Assuming that a child has some working ability at the age of seven, it would take almost eight years from conception to birth and then to the age of seven...
But for now, there is no other better way, we can only do this first.
Hei Wa, who has been many years old, has also gotten married, and his spouse has just come of age, is about the same age as him, and is extremely strong and strong.
She looks almost as strong as Hei Wa. Among the younger generation of Qingque tribe, she is the number one beauty. In order to marry her, Hei Wa fought hard with Tietou Bing, who also just came of age.
On the battlefield, I was beaten until my nose was bruised and my face was swollen before I could hug the beauty back!
This made Han Cheng's eyes go straight, but he could understand it.
After all, there is not much savings in life now, and only strong people can live better in this era, so people's aesthetic standard at this time is one - strong!
As for the later Xizi, the skinny Zhao Feiyan who could dance on the palm of her hand, and other famous beauties in history, even the most cowardly man would not be willing to have them...
