The matter of animal husbandry is a long-term matter and cannot be accomplished overnight. The most important thing Han Cheng told his senior brother was to act within his ability and not to act too hastily.
In addition to worrying that people in the tribe would be injured, another important reason is that there are too many animals captured and there is no place to raise them.
The area of the cave is not small, but there are also a lot of people living in it. In addition, there are many bottles and cans taking up space. The remaining space is not too big. It is okay to raise a few, but it is okay to raise more.
I really can’t afford it.
So Han Chengcheng planned to take a look outside the cave and try to make some pig pens and sheep pens.
The weather is getting hotter. I hunted a lot of prey yesterday, but because I couldn't store it for a long time, my senior brother took out a lot of food last night and grilled it or cooked soup for everyone to eat. Many people were exhausted.
rolled his eyes.
Han Cheng did not understand the intention of the senior brother at first. He only thought that he had hunted more prey and the senior brother wanted to celebrate. It was not until after eating that he realized that he was worried that the food would spoil, so he did so.
After Han Cheng learned about this, he slapped himself on the forehead, wondering how he had forgotten this!
We are busy thinking about how to develop planting and animal husbandry, but we have even forgotten the most basic food storage!
In the morning, the senior brother took out all the remaining food at once and asked everyone to eat all the food.
This food is enough for the people of the tribe to eat for two meals. Now eating it in one meal is definitely a serious waste.
Han Cheng stepped forward to stop the senior brother and told him that he could not eat so much food.
The eldest brother smiled. Of course he knew that he wouldn't need so much, but if he didn't eat the food quickly, it would go bad by night!
"If you don't eat it, it will go bad."
He pointed to the meat and said to Han Cheng.
Han Cheng understood what he meant and replied with a smile: "If you don't eat it, it won't go bad. I can make the food not go bad."
Because Mandarin began to become more popular, Han Cheng spoke to them much more fluently.
Hearing what Han Cheng said, the senior brother stopped insisting and put half of the meat back to its original place.
He didn't ask about the solution. He knew that since the Son of God said so, there must be a solution.
For more than half a year, the various miracles displayed by the Son of God have convinced them so much that they are almost blindly obedient.
After breakfast, Han Cheng asked his senior brother to bring a large pottery basin and a jar of salt. He asked his senior brother to put the meat in the pottery pot, and then he grabbed the salt and rubbed it on the meat until every part of the meat was covered with salt.
Until you stay.
Rub the salted meat and leave it in a basin for a while. Then use a stone knife to make a hole in it, thread it through with rope and straw, and hang it on a branch of a tree not far from the entrance of the hole.
After a while, the tree produced more than a dozen special fruits, large and small.
On top of the fire that burned all year round in the cave, Han Cheng tried his best to hang two pieces of meat. He wanted to try smoked meat.
He remembered that the prepared smoked meat seemed to hold up better than the dried bacon.
Everyone looked at the meat hanging on the tree in the sun and felt a little dazed. They did not expect that the method of preserving meat for a long time mentioned by the Son of God would be so simple.
With the emergence of pickled bacon, even if there is no fish this winter, the Qingque tribe will not be too sad.
Because they usually only start storing food in the autumn, now they can do it in the summer! And the meat they store is far more hungry than the fruits.
Han Cheng's idea of building various circles was not implemented immediately because he found another extremely urgent matter, which was more urgent than improving the pottery kilns and creating enough land for planting.
This thing is to build a wall!
I don’t know if it’s because of the continuous drying of bacon outside in the past few days that wolves have been attracted around the tribe.
The wolves did not eat the meat hanging on the tree, because the meat on the tree was right in front of the tribe's cave entrance and was always guarded during the day. When it was not dark, it was withdrawn into the cave again, so they had no chance to eat.
The real thrill was last night!
Xing's younger brother Chen is about six years old. He is a bit short compared to his peers, but he is very smart. He also studied under Han Cheng and is the child of Junior Brother Sha.
Yesterday evening, I cooked bone soup. Compared to barbecue, Chen still prefers bone soup.
I was greedy last night, drank too much, and woke up late at night.
Younger children who are not yet able to take care of themselves will be accompanied by adults when they get up at night, but Chen is already past this age.
So I went out alone to solve the problem.
There was no problem the first two times, but something went wrong the third time!
As soon as Chen came to stand outside, a black shadow suddenly jumped out of the darkness and rushed towards Chen.
Chen didn't react at all, he just subconsciously let out a panicked scream and was already jumped!
Fortunately, Junior Brother Sha was woken up by Chen Qiye's movements, and he felt panicked. After Chen went out, he also went out.
After seeing a wolf jumping out of the darkness and pounced on Chen, Junior Brother Sha, who has been hunting for many years and has accumulated a lot of hunting experience, had no desire to urinate. While shouting loudly to scare the wolf, he bent down and grabbed a handful randomly on the ground.
He rushed towards the wolf.
The wolf was frightened and ran away, and Chen escaped from the wolf's mouth.
However, the kiss from the wolf still left traces on him. Half of his right ear was missing, and there were several blood stains on his arms.
The blood marks on his arms may fade away over time, but the missing half of the ear will never grow back. This mark will stay with him for the rest of his life.
Fortunately, people today have different methods of distinguishing beauty from ugliness than people of later generations. Even if half an ear is missing, it will not affect Chen's ability to marry a wife.
The next day, the senior brother led the hunting team and started looking for traces of wolves near the tribe with weapons.
Han Cheng's daily running also stopped. He and the other children stayed in the half-covered cave. There were several female adults staying at the entrance of the cave with weapons to guard against the sudden visit of the wolf.
At the end of the day, they saw no sign of the wolf.
However, the tribe did not relax.
At night, when there are children out for the night, there are at least two adults accompanying them with weapons.
Han Cheng got up even more solemnly at night, with four people accompanying him, which made him very uncomfortable.
But there is no other way. In order not to lose my life, I can only do this.
After three days of this, Senior Brother and the others continued to expand the scope of their investigation with the tribe as the center and around the tribe, but still found no trace of the wolf.
And these few nights, the wolf did not visit the tribe.
After searching for no trace of the wolf for three days, the senior brother and the others had no choice but to give up the idea of finding the wolf. After all, they still needed to hunt, and they could not go on like this.
