There are still as many fish in the river as ever, but it is not easy at all to use the tribe's simple harpoon to fish them out.
This not only requires years of practicing skills, but also requires a certain amount of luck.
Usually, if a person can catch ten fish in the river in one day, it is considered an extremely rare harvest.
Now that Han Cheng has manufactured new fishing tools, he wonders if this inefficient fishing speed can be improved.
Under everyone's gaze, the fish cage was lowered into the water, and the rope was pulled in Han Cheng's hand.
After the fish in the water were frightened by the fish cage entering the water, they quickly returned to their previous appearance, swimming around in the water, and some naughty ones even jumped out of the water, and then fell into the water with a "pop" sound.
A splash of ripples.
Wu, Lai, Heiwa, Xiaomei, Xiaoli and others stood aside and stretched their heads to look into the water, holding the fish cage under the water.
About five or six minutes later, a fish swam into the fish cage from the entrance. As a result, before Han Cheng could pull it out, it had already swam out of the mesh at the back of the fish cage. This guy was really big.
Smaller.
The fish cage was sitting quietly in the water. Three fish had already swam in and out of the mesh at the back. This made Han Cheng a little annoyed. Damn it, this fish cage is being treated as a playground!
Another fish swam to the opening of the fish cage, and it was quite big.
It lingered here for a moment, then swung its tail and swam in without realizing that the passage space it passed through was getting smaller and smaller.
Seeing that the fish had completely entered the fish cage, Han Cheng began to tighten the rope.
The fish in the fish cage was frightened and bumped around inside, trying to get out quickly. However, there were nets on all sides, and the passage it used to enter could no longer be found.
In its struggle, the fish cage was lifted out of the water.
The fish that was still jumping inside was taken out by Han Cheng from the opening.
Everyone looked at the fish that jumped on the shore and was stained with soil and grass, and then looked at the fish cage that was put into the water again by the Son of God. They all looked surprised. This weird-looking thing can really catch fish.
, and it seems very relaxed.
Wu thinks far ahead and has more surprises than the average person.
Because he discovered a huge benefit of the fish cage made by the Son of God!
In the past, fishing was only a matter for adults, but now that there are fish cages, the young Shenzi can easily fish out fish from the water.
This means that the older minors, who were basically freeloaders in the past and relied entirely on adults for support, can now obtain food for the tribe with the help of fish cages!
Just this one fish trap is enough to attract the attention of the witch.
Wu has secretly made a decision. As long as the fish caught by two minors in a fish trap can be as good as that caught by an adult, he can discuss with the leader and allocate half of the people from the hunting team to build what the Son of God said.
Wall!
Wu quickly overturned this decision in his heart, because this fish cage gave him such a big surprise!
When the first fish lay on the shore and had not yet died, Han Cheng once again pulled the fish cage out of the water.
And this time, there was not one fish in the fish cage, but two!
this……
This is truly a miracle!
Wu didn't know how to describe his feelings, so he could only blame it on the Almighty God.
The rest of the people also widened their eyes, and some even screamed in surprise. When the fishing madman looked at the fish cage in Han Cheng's hand, his eyes were shining.
For him who loves fishing, the temptation of such a fishing tool is too great.
Han Cheng didn't expect that he would catch two fish at once this time. These two fish really looked at him.
Seeing Wu's eagerness to try, Han Cheng handed Wu the rope and the fish cage and told him some tips on how to hold the rope tightly.
Putting a fish trap in the water is an extremely simple matter, and Wu naturally can do it well.
After waiting for about ten minutes, a big guy weighing three or four kilograms entered the fish cage and was pulled up by the witch.
Wu's face was filled with a smile. He had not obtained food for a long time, and now he experienced the joy of harvest again.
When the sun was about to set, Wu walked in front holding the fish cage in his hands as if he had found a treasure, and led everyone back to the cave.
In the hands of this group of people, they carried a total of thirteen fish! And the smallest one weighed about a kilogram!
This is truly a miracle!
If a minor can catch thirteen fish in less than half a day, wouldn't he have to catch thirty fish in a whole day?
Calculating this, as long as three minors use three fish cages, the food problem of the entire tribe can be solved for a day?
(The witch already knows some simple addition and subtraction, and Han Cheng took the time to teach him some simpler addition, subtraction, simple multiplication and division. There is no problem for the witch to calculate numbers within one hundred.)
After making such calculations, I found it strange that Wu was holding the fish cage carefully and swinging the pendulum excitedly as he walked.
After all, in the past, food required the entire tribe to work hard, but now it only requires three minors. Under such a huge contrast, it would be strange for a witch to walk without a care in the world!
Han Cheng also slapped himself directly on the forehead. Why didn't he think of the fish trap earlier? If he could think of it earlier and take out the fish trap, how much more could he do!
The eldest brother led the people back with the prey. Today, we were not very lucky. The prey we caught was not enough for the tribe to eat for two meals.
If it were in the past, Senior Brother might still be worried, but not now, because there is still enough bacon stored in the cave to feed everyone for several days.
When he saw the thirteen fish, a smile appeared on his face.
Having these thirteen fish means that there is no need to eat bacon as a relief.
But the eldest brother's joy was just that. In the season when food was plentiful, thirteen fish was not a surprise to him.
But when he learned that these fish were caught by Shenzi in less than half a day using something called a fish trap, he could no longer remain calm.
"Bata!"
The fish that the senior brother was holding fell to the ground. He stood here blankly for a while, then ran into the inner cave, eager to see this artifact for fishing!
After dinner, under the leadership of the witch, the Qingque tribe once again held a grand sacrificial ceremony.
What was offered to the god this time was a fish pot and the largest fish caught in a fish pot today.
Han Cheng did not need to participate in the sacrifice. At the Wu's insistent request, he stood in front of the totem pole and accepted the worship of everyone in the tribe...
The witch was so happy that he danced until he couldn't stand. Only then did he end the grand sacrificial ceremony under Han Cheng's persuasion.
Lying on the bed, Wu cried happily for a long time before falling asleep.
For them, nothing is more important than having enough to eat every day and not having to worry about going hungry!
As the leader, the senior brother also had a good sleep tonight.
The food problem was like a knife hanging over his head, which made him dare not relax at all. He tensed up his body every day and worked hard to get enough food.
Now the food problem was suddenly solved in this way, the knife on the head that could kill someone disappeared, and an unprecedented sense of relief spread throughout the senior brother's body.
