Chapter 180 Wild Player

Xu Chen found hemostatic powder and linen to wrap the injured fingers for the child, and then Mother Ba was slightly relieved and busy working.

"Okay, okay, why are you wronged? You did it wrong!"

Looking at Ye Man's aggrieved look, Xu Chen rubbed her head with laughter and tears to comfort her.

"It's him who is stupid..." The little mother savage was not convinced.

"You were not as stupid as a child. Fortunately, the copper knife was not too sharp, otherwise the fingers of Phuga would be cut off. See if Mother Ba doesn't hit you, forget it. If you like to make wine, then go make wine. I'll cut the fruit!"

Xu Chen glared at him in anger, took the copper knife that fell to the ground to wash it at the well, and took a group of kids to cut fruit and thread it to dry.

Yes put their mouths on their hands to pinch vine fruit to make wine.

Because I was a little angry, I was not friendly to the little witch. I kept looking for trouble and complaining that the vine fruit was not clean, not ripe, not pinched carefully enough, etc.

The little witch was originally introverted by nature. She was so blushed that she didn't dare to help anymore. She could only stand beside her and watch. After a while, she watched Xu Chen chatting with a group of children. She couldn't help but walk over to watch. Xu Chen smiled and told her how to cut fruits and how to string them with copper needles and twine.

So the little witch rolled up her sleeves, and then started to cooperate with Xu Chen intimately and joked.

"Why do you need to make wine? I also have to cut fruit..."

Ye was full of discomfort, and his sourness was both aggrieved and uncomfortable. He threw many wild fruits into the pottery jar in anger. When a few children who helped saw this, they immediately began to accuse her of not doing serious work.

When Mother Ba heard this, she ran over and saw it, and couldn't help scolding her and then scolding her again.

Ye had to find the wild fruit that he threw in and crushed it again. He felt full of grievances and had nowhere to vent his grievances. He was crying while working.

Xu Chen had no choice but to smile bitterly and hand the copper knife to the little witch, carefully reminding her to be careful, and then turned back to make wine with Ye.

Since the little witch came, the little mother's savage cousin's behavior has become more and more emotional.

This made him feel comforted and taken care of every day.

However, before he had sex for a while, Mom Ba came out and found that the little witch was cutting fruit. She exclaimed again and stepped forward and took the knife off. She held the little witch's hand and looked and touched, for fear of cutting a little skin, so she pointed at Ye and scolded him again.

Ye couldn't hold back at all, so he turned his head and ran outside the yard crying.

The little witch stood beside her and was at a loss.

Xu Chen could only sigh helplessly.

There are so many women.

The Ye in the past was so good, lively, straightforward and cute, like a carefree elf girl.

But now, it is almost turned into a jealous jar.

She felt so wronged that she wondered if the wine brewed would also become sour.

It is said that brewing wine is related to mood, and people in a bad mood will become vinegar.

However, it seems that it is good to get some fruit vinegar.

It is sour, sweet and nutritious and helpful for digestion, suitable for women and children.

...

In the next few days, a group of people kept going up the mountain to pick vines and fruits, and went down the mountain to make wine and dry fruits.

Because this year, I have sufficient preparation and just chose to ripen a lot of vine fruits, and most of them have not yet matured and fallen, so the number of picking is also considerable, more than twice as many as last year, and the total is over 1,000 kilograms.

Every day, the whole tribe, including a group of monkeys, were full and full. There were gradually more than twenty jars of fruit wine in the warehouse, and the rest were cut and dried. Therefore, the yard was full of rattan weavings, and the wooden racks for drying were densely hung with strings of fruits.

The whole yard was filled with a rich and sweet vine fruit smell, and there was a faint and ripe fruit wine aroma.

At the same time, on the open space in the yard, a large amount of dried fruits such as hazelnuts, chestnuts, acorns and others are picked from the mountains and carried back to dry.

As soon as you enter the yard, you will be filled with a breath of harvest everywhere.

This is a harvest that a tribe has never had before.

Although these dried wild fruits are not staple foods, they will provide sufficient nutritional supplements for the entire tribe, especially for pregnant women and children who need a lot of nutrition.

For adults, this is also a rare snack. A few pills are tasty and nutritious, and can also replenish trace elements for pile driving in time.

The food reserved this fall is enough to eat until spring is over.

The whole month of August was spent in this rich and sweet harvest.

After the two warehouses were filled with oats and wild beans harvested in summer and autumn, they were slowly filled with various dried wild fruits and dried vine-framed crock pots of various sizes, and they could not find their place to go in.

Mother Ba and a group of women laughed from ear to ear all day long.

They have never experienced this unprecedented gain before.

In previous years, the mountain was occupied by a group of hundreds of monkeys, and the foot of the mountain was occupied by a group of wild wolves. The area collected was limited to the area below the mountainside and near the river beach at the foot of the mountain.

But this year, the tribe's collection range spread throughout the valley.

Coupled with the concentrated harvest brought by farming, the reserve of plant food has reached an unprecedented scale.

In addition, thanks to the construction of a large number of houses, and the growing number of rattan containers and more and more pottery as storage containers, all the harvest can also be well collected.

In addition, this year, the number of men suddenly increased by more than ten, and the harvest of fishing and hunting also increased greatly. Stimulated by Xu Chen's military training and reward and punishment measures, the men's enthusiasm for labor is much higher than in previous years, and a large amount of fish and animal meat that cannot be eaten has been dried and stored.

But with too much food, some headaches gradually began to appear.

That means the house is not enough.

Originally, the courtyard was newly completed last year. After the house was allocated by two people, there were a few more empty spaces as warehouses, and Xu Chen could even use one of them as classrooms.

But as the little witch arrived with a group of Wu people, the house became tense instantly. Xu Chen had to let many men have four of them in one room. In addition, the classroom was specially converted into the little witch's bedroom, and there were only two rooms left in the warehouse.

But at present, the two rooms are obviously not enough.

So Xu Chen had to launch a housing expansion plan in advance and prepare to build a second phase of residence project.

In the past, when the courtyard was planned, there was enough room for expansion for the second phase project, but all the bricks, stones, wood, limes and thatch needed to repair the house had to be re-prepared, and the foundation naturally also needed to be burned again and excavated.

Anyway, this is another super project.

Fortunately, after the Wu people this year, there is no shortage of labor force and it does not require a large-scale employment to hire workers.

Expansion space is reserved on both sides of the courtyard, and Xu Chen temporarily plans to build an area close to the side of the kiln factory this year.

In order to complete the construction before the rainy season in the spring, everyone except the men who hunt and burn the kilns will be put into preparations for the new house construction starting from late August.

Large-scale brick laying has begun again on the river beach.

Some people are responsible for cutting trees and some are responsible for picking up stones.

Since the beginning of autumn, the kiln factory has been constantly firing pottery to prepare for the transaction after the Witch Lord Conference, and at the same time, it is also constantly firing lime, so there is no shortage of lime and even more surplus.

After the food collection and harvest came to an end, the women began to devote more energy to spinning and weaving.

Last year's demand for sackcloth did not come as scheduled, but everyone believed that the trend of sackcloth replacing animal skins would soon come.

Maybe it will be after the spring next year.

Of course, Xu Chen also knew that the tribes are now struggling with lack of wealth and lack of food and clothing, and this demand is not particularly obvious.

However, these huge progress in farming, animal husbandry and textiles will inevitably bring about great changes in society and will then promote earth-shaking changes in the entire human society.

It's just that time hasn't come yet.

But after all, it has accumulated more than a year, and after fermentation, the tribes will undergo considerable changes.

Progress in craftsmanship will inevitably lead to an increase in wealth.

Increased wealth will inevitably promote business development.

The simplest example is the invention and dissemination of fishing nets, which will greatly supplement the food of each tribe and allow other tribes to have more manpower to collect more wealth.

He is now looking forward to the Ukrainians collecting more copper ores to exchange them.

The first furnace produced very little copper, which was only about twenty kilograms in total, and finally made a few small objects, but with these copper tools, many things became more convenient and simple.

Just like a copper knife, although its texture is not strong, it is better because it is thin and sharp. It is much more convenient to cut fruits and cut sack bark than stone knife and shell.

In addition, making needles with copper is much stronger and durable than wooden needles. Although they are not as penetrating as bone needles, they are more powerful because they are simple to make and are not easy to break.

Wealth is accumulated, not transformed out of thin air.

The Ba tribe now has enough financial resources and material resources to collect ores in large quantities, and starts to click on the metal smelting skill.

However, it would definitely be too slow for him to wait for the Wu tribe to rely on primitive means to pick up ore to develop the smelting process.

His purpose was to completely divide the Ukrainian tribe, then annex several of its tribes and then occupy the copper mines within the territory of the Ukrainian tribe.

This is a big step for snakes to swallow elephants.

If you are not careful, you will be choked.

Therefore, he needs to plan carefully.

Since the delegation has arranged for the delegation to appease the Wu tribe with gifts, the Wu tribe has not made any noise recently, which shows that all his plans to please and win over and divide and all the plans to mix fish with the same slightest are successful.

What he needs to do now is to prepare more fully.

At the upcoming witch convention, the identity of the inheritor of the Wu clan's great witch was exposed, and the power of the other four tribes completely dismembered the Wu clan and set up the great witches of the Ba clan.

With the spiritual leader of the Great Witch, he came forward and unified the five tribes from his faith to the leadership of the Ba tribe as the core.
