Huang Shao shook his arm, pointed at the land, and measured it with his steps.
"From here, to here, to over there, boss"
Some tribal warriors ran over and stood guard, serving as human benchmarks.
"Going north-south, a total of fifteen thousand steps! Going east-west, a total of nine thousand six hundred steps!"
Huang Shao said to Yuzai: "The land here is the most fertile, and there is no need for rotational farming. You can plant seeds every year. The terrain is high, so it is not easy for seedlings to be flooded. There is never any water flow around. You see."
As he spoke, he grabbed a handful of the soil here. Although it was loose, the texture was very good and just the right amount of moisture. There was no hard residue at all, it had not been eroded by water flow, and there was no fishy smell like other lands.
Instead, it is filled with a freshness and fragrance unique to earth.
This is indeed an absolutely wonderful land.
Bailihao and tiller buds and Bailimao were on the side. Although he didn't like Huangshao, what he said was indeed correct.
This is an excellent piece of land, which is why the two tribes compete for it every year. The most important thing is to "plant seeds every year."
The fertility of this land is extremely rich, and its recovery rate is much faster than other cultivated land.
"Although I don't know why, I think it must be the beautiful land specially created for us by Xigong's blessing!"
When Bailihao heard this, he immediately became furious: "Xigong? I even said this is the protection of the dragon ghost!"
Whether it is Dragon Ghost or Xigong, they are all synonymous with the totem god. The totem god is a kind of divinity expressed by the tribal collective. We still take the Akafang clan as an example. The totem worshiped by the Akafang clan is the sheep.
In the Central Plains, the ancestral clan of the Chifang clan, the Jinyun clan, has their clan totem "Taotie"!
There is no need to say more about what Taotie looks like!
Clan totems are often very strange. Various names were recorded by later generations, either as gods or ferocious beasts. To give an example, if there is the Sun family, the earliest totem with the Sun family is the god described in the Great Wilderness Western Classic "
"Yanzi"! It's Yanzi dancing with the black bird.
The Jinyun clan's totem is the so-called "Taotie", but at this time, Taotie is still just a Taotie. As the Shen clan lives in the Central Plains, it has not suffered from exile or denigration.
Jinghua's totem is "Xigong", also known as "Western Monkey", which is concise and to the point. He is considered to be the mountain god of this boundary mountain among the three mountains. What does it look like? Generally speaking, he has the body of an animal with a human face, and ears like feathers.
, deer antlers and snake scales, it is at a low aesthetic level among ancient mountain gods.
But compared to the dragon ghost, it is naturally much better.
The so-called south of Chaisang, three mountains and four fields, refers to the "boundary mountain" where the two clans are currently fighting, the "Mengshan Mountain" in the distance, and the "Great Salt Mountain" further to the west.
As for the four fields, they are the "Field of Artemisia", "The Field of Qiuyang", "The Field of Zaoli", and the "Wild of Daxie" where the two families are now fighting.
The wilderness at the foot of Jie Mountain is the main area where the two families fight.
As for the main fertile soil in the Great Slope Wilderness, both the Tierya clan and the Jinghua clan claimed that this was a change caused by the protection of their own totem gods.
"A deified land?"
Yutu asked Yuzai in a low voice.
After all, in this era, the legacy of deification is everywhere, and this kind of land that can be sown every year is not in line with the common sense of rotational cultivation and sowing in the Shanhai Age.
The fertility of the soil needs to be continuously restored, but this piece of land can remain fertile for a long time if no one takes care of it manually. Even in future generations, the land will need to be left fallow!
It’s just that the fallow in later generations is different from the fallow in the Shanhai era. Fallow actually does not mean that the land is not cultivated or left uncultivated for a year. In later generations, an effective way to prevent continuous land operation is to do it on the same piece of land.
"Crop rotation".
"It looks a bit like it. It's indeed a good piece of land."
Yuan Zai smiled and said: "This piece of land does not need to be fought to the death. In fact, both the Tiler Ya family and the Jinghua family can cultivate on this land, and with this land as the center, you two can even exchange land.
.”
Huang Shao, the patriarch of the Jinghua clan, frowned and stared: "What are you talking about? Exchanging land?"
"right."
Yu Zai said: "Did you know that Jing and Shu can take turns cultivating the same land?"
Pointing his finger at Tiller Ya: "Now that the Waking of Insects is coming, Jingan can no longer be planted. Southern Jingan is planted when it gets cold, but there is no cold in the south. So, if we want to plant it now, Till Ya will plant Jingan first during spring plowing, and then
After harvesting, Jing Fahrenhe then plants Jing Jing in the cultivated land, and it happens over and over again. The rotation of the two can not only rest the land, but also allow farming to continue."
Huang Shao was stunned for a long time and said suspiciously: "The land must be rested? Doesn't this mean that farming will continue?"
Tier Ya Wu Baili Mao was also a little dumbfounded and scratched his head, expressing that he didn't quite understand.
Yu Zai smiled and said: "It's a crop rotation! Because green beans and sweet potatoes require different soil strength! If you are an ordinary person, you like to eat meat and he likes to eat rice. I will give you two food, one is rice and the other is meat.
, Those who like meat will abandon rice, and those who like rice will abandon meat, that’s it.”
"According to the different seasons, the grain crops include spring stubble, spring stubble, summer stubble, and summer stubble, with crops such as bean sprouts, millet, melons, and rice taking turns."
"The soil strength obtained by all kinds of grains is different. Therefore, if you sow bean sprouts, the soil strength required by the rice seedlings can be restored in the soil. When the bean sprouts are harvested, you can plant rice again at this time, and the soil strength required by the bean sprouts can be restored.
Of."
Bailihao, Bailimao, and Huangshao are all shocking in my heart!
Is it true? It sounds so mysterious?!
"If this is true"
Baili Hao murmured: "It is true that we don't have to fight for land anymore. At worst, you plant first and then I plant."
The group of Jinghua warriors behind Huang Shao looked at each other in confusion.
"What the people from the Central Plains said should be true."
"Can people from the Central Plains believe it?"
"No, wouldn't it be great if it were true?"
"But, the land needs to be divided with others. How to calculate the boundaries of this land? Do we need to merge it?"
The Jinghua warriors had different expressions, but they started talking about it.
Huang Shao's face was also full of contemplation, changing constantly, with some hesitation. He looked at Yu Zai's face from time to time, as if he wanted to find a lie in it.
He gritted his teeth and asked Yuzai: "Then what is the method you said before to make other lands permanently fertile?"
Yu Zai said: "Compost, retting."
Huang Shao was stunned for a moment.
"Pile of dirt?"
Yu Zai laughed and patted her head: "Wrong, I made a mistake in my expression. It should be dirt."
"Dung?!"
At this time, a group of people couldn't help but lose their voices, and the leaders and soldiers of the two groups had already gathered around. Ruzai made an embrace: "Come, come, come closer, this is a great thing that is beneficial to the soil."
"However, if this thing comes to pass, I would also like to get some seeds from Jinghua."
Yu Zai asked: "Is it possible?"
Huang Shao nodded: "If it works, then of course it will."
Yu Zai suddenly asked Huang Shao: "Besides Jing Jing, is there any other grain that Jing Hua is good at growing? For example, tiller buds are good at Shu."
Astragalus said: "Rice, brassicas."
"Yuncai?"
Ruan Zai was stunned for a moment, feeling that he had never heard of it before. Huang Shao dug around and took out two wilted "vegetables".
And after seeing this kind of dish clearly, Yuzai was first surprised, and then she was pleasantly surprised!
