Chapter 670 The newly discovered fruit is poisonous
Time flies so fast, and in the blink of an eye, more than half of the courtyard wall at the foot of Tongshan has been built.
With Hei Wa's efforts, three dishes were plated on the stove, and the fourth one is now being plated.
Han Cheng, who had some prickly heat on his body from the sun, was leading Junior Brother Sha and a few others around Tongshan, stretching out his fingers to draw from time to time, which seemed to give some pointers to the country.
What Han Cheng is doing now is to explain to Junior Brother Sha about the reclamation of farmland.
Tongshan must be cultivated and cultivated, not to have much surplus, but to be self-sufficient.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to just hope to transport food from the big tribes here.
First, it is troublesome, and second, it consumes too much money on the way to transport food.
Therefore, reclamation here has become a must-do.
But don’t think about planting land here this year.
After the walls are built here, some houses are built to live in, and the infrastructure is completed, it will be almost the end of autumn.
Of course it is not suitable for grain production at that time, but it can be used to prepare for the coming spring.
What Han Cheng is pointing to now is the place where Junior Brother Sha and the others will cultivate fields after these things are built.
Not far away, four or five people were holding axes and cutting down trees on the first piece of land that Han Cheng had set out to be reclaimed.
Not far away from them, several people made earthen buns that were emitting green smoke. They were burning charcoal.
Han Cheng has basically explained what needs to be explained. It has been nearly a month since he came here, and it is time to prepare to go back.
Before going back, Han Cheng planned to have someone refine a batch of copper and tin ingots to bring with him.
The first is to verify whether the new stove works well. If it doesn't work well, Heiwa can take a quick break while Heiwa is still here.
The second reason is that there were not many copper and tin ingots left in the tribe when we came out, so bringing some back at this time can replenish the metal resources that are about to run out.
The third time is when Han Cheng and others go back, they can't go empty-handed.
It is easy to go back empty-handed, but it is indeed a huge waste of manpower, especially now that the Qingque tribe is still in a state of blooming on both sides.
While Han Cheng was gesticulating here and making plans, within the Qingque Tribe, the trading team of the Qingque Tribe headed by Shang Trade also packed up their goods, led the deer and the dog, and went out with weapons.
He arrived at the Qingque Tribe and headed outside.
According to past experience, in more than a month, the tribe's large areas of millet and soybeans, which have expanded to nearly 50 acres, will be mature.
Once the autumn harvest arrives, other things in the tribe have to make way for it.
After the Chinese New Year this year, there was not much going out for trading, so Shang Mao and the others decided to go out and do some trading before the autumn harvest.
I told this matter to Wu and Senior Brother, and both of them agreed.
After all, compared to other people who are expanding the wall, the trade team is a bit supernumerary.
Moreover, not long ago, when Shenzi decided to lead people to build the Tongshan residential area, he made it clear that the expansion of the tribe would not happen overnight, so he was not afraid of delaying this moment.
As for the tribal defense issue, there is no need to worry about it. After such a long period of expansion, the Qingque tribe already has a large population. If six or seventy adults go out, it will not cause a defense void for the tribe.
If there are people from that tribe who feel that the Qingque tribe is empty at this time and want to come and snatch some good things, then these people who have been holding farm tools for a long time will definitely pick up their weapons and kill them.
They all became slaves of the Qingque tribe.
The trade team led by Shang Mao walked all the way forward, and was welcomed by those who were waiting for the arrival of the trade team with almost blue eyes.
A tribe that had done business with the Qingque tribe had a lot of people gathered around a few trees.
There are relatively fine leaves growing on the tree, and there are a handful of beans growing between the leaves.
These beans are not big, about the same size as mung beans.
The side that was exposed to the sun was a little red, and the rest was still green.
An older primitive man reached out and carefully picked off a few beans, causing the branches and leaves to sway.
While pulling down the beans, he accidentally pricked his hand with the thorns growing on them. The old primitive man couldn't help but wave his hand away in pain.
Under the watchful eyes of several people, the older primitive man put a green and red bean into his mouth and began to chew it slowly.
The others watched her closely to see her reaction.
They all hope that this is something edible, so that their tribe will have another edible food.
However, what happened was counterproductive. After chewing a few times, the old primitive began to spit.
Even though she couldn't spit out all the chewed beans, her mouth still felt extremely uncomfortable. This taste was better than anything she had tasted before.
With his mouth hanging out and his tongue hanging out, he drooled for a long time and then he felt much better.
When the older primitive people and other primitive people looked at these newly discovered food plants, they felt a little awe, but in addition, they were also disappointed.
How great would it be if this thing were edible food?
"￥!"
However, this mood did not last long, and someone started shouting excitedly.
She spoke and gestured to express what she meant.
After hearing her words, several other people nearby also turned from worry to joy.
Yes, how could they forget that rich and strange tribe?
Although this newly discovered plant doesn't taste good, it produces seeds.
After picking the seeds of this plant that have never been seen before, you may be able to exchange for a lot of things from that tribe.
After thinking of this, these primitive women no longer hesitated, and everyone started to pull the branches to grab the fruit.
After picking it, wrap it in big leaves and carry it to the tribe.
On the way back, several women soon became a little uncomfortable. This was not only because they remembered that the mysterious and wealthy tribe had not visited their tribe for a long time, but also because of another important reason.
The hands that picked the fruit became numb, and it didn't hurt when I pinched it with my nails.
This discovery frightened them, and they thought they might have been poisoned, just like the previous tribesman who tasted the newly discovered plant and died.
Many people are worried about whether they will die, or whether they can still get their hands that feel strange.
"￥ert..."
The primitive woman holding this poisonous fruit was so frightened that she wanted to throw away this terrifying thing...
