Chapter 189: Hunting team returns with prey (2/2)
Yan Mo waved at him and went to play.
Wu Chen smiled and opened his head and rushed to the front.
“Jiu Yuan! Jiu Yuan!” The people who prepared the barbecue also shouted with joy.
Everyone was rendered by this warm and happy atmosphere, and the warriors screamed and rushed into the crowd and began a real carnival.
Yuan Zhan gimmicked, he held the boy's head and grinned. ”They like you.”
Yan Mo smiled and said, “I like them too.”
Don't you want to upgrade? Come on, just let me study the secrets of your bones, starting with the broken arms and broken legs.
Yuan Zhan laughed and pushed the boy, “Go, let's go eat meat!”
The excitement continued until late at night.
The next day, when Zheng and other warriors' heads appeared in the conference hall, they all became very serious. After sitting down, they said everything they saw and heard along the way.
Yan Mo let Wu Chen write down one by one, these are very important information.
Yan Mo specifically asked if there were other human tribes on the road.
Zheng shook his head. ”We originally wanted to find the new tribe that the birdmen built on the way, but we haven't found it. I don't know if it because we were going in the wrong direction, or they are still farther away. We haven't see any human tribes around.”
”Before we left Mo Da Ren you also said, we should not go too far this time, the main purpose is to clean up the beasts in the vicinity, who would be able to invade Jiu Yuan, so we do not go too far.” Lie added.
Bué said: ”There are a lot of wild beasts on the road. We have also encountered a wolf herd. If there were few people, it would be difficult to survive.”
Da Shan: ”We killed the wolf beasts. We don't have to worry about going back and forth in the north for ten days. We met a powerful beast, but it ran in the forest, or somewhere else, then we couldn't do anything.”
Yan Mo laughed. “It takes time to clear the road. When the winter is over, the hunting team will go back and forth on several occasions, the beasts will know that the site is occupied by humans and would not come over.”
Lie hesitated and asked: “Mo Da Ren, why must we remove all the beasts on the way back at a distance of ten days? Isn't this going further and further to hunt?”
Yan Mo had already expected that everyone would raise this question and immediately replied: ”Even if we consciously let go of the cubs, etc., after a few years, the beast that are close to us will grow less and less, then the hunting team will have to go too far away, and the tribe will not be able to get food to eat so if we want to live, good, and not stay hungry, we can't rely on hunting prey completely.”
“Don't rely on prey? What do we eat?” ”
”Why do you think that I wanted you to capture more live cattle and sheep?”
Waiting for everyone to reply, Yan Mo said: ”It is a reason to have food for winter, but one more important reason is that I intend to let some people in the tribe go to breed these cattle and sheep, and if we want to breed cattle and sheep we need safe grazing land, so it is imperative to kill the nearby beasts.”
The leaders of the warriors suddenly realized it.
Looking at the expressions of people, Yan Mo knew that the people he thought was going to drive the cattle and sheep to the grass, let them live freely, and then grab two when they want to eat. However, he did not intend to explain more at this time, and the fine details of the breeding will be explained to the person in charge.
“In addition to grazing, large-scale planting will begin next year. Earth yuan fruit, cotton, Sea Buckthorn fruit, and some common herbs will be planted. These are temporarily placed in the inner city and awaiting for the outer city expansion”
Seeing that Yan Mo put the topic on leave from grazing, Zheng sighed, and he raised an important question:” Da Ren, if you want to keep these cattle into the next year, and then what will we eat this winter? ”
Hearing this problem, Yan Mo also had a bit of a headache. He used to rely on Yuan Zhan to ripen plants. As long as that's doable and there will be no need to worry about winter. However, Yuan Zhan’s current situation is not easy to use the plant growth control anymore, especially since the wood energy will to help the fire energy go berserk inside Yuan Zhan’s body. The fire is already strong enough, and the burning will be infernos...
To this end, he also thought of pasture savings, there are roughly two ways to save grass, one is stacked hay, and one is silage.
Stacking hay is simple. Just cut the grass, dry it and accumulate it into a relatively fluffy haystack. It is best to put it in a rainproof place. But these hay are not loved by animals because of water loss, plus insects and mildew in it.
The silage has high nutritional value, long storage time, and the livestock loves to eat and it helps grow their meat. The production process is not difficult, but he has not done it. He only read some agricultural programs and probably remember some important points, such as chopping the forage. Then having it buried in the ground, and the storage should also be available. The focus is on the storage, the stepping on the gas, the tightness, and the drainage. After about forty to fifty days, the closed fermentation can be used as silage.
Although silage is good, it is not difficult to make, but the specific operation depends on groping at points. And now he is starting to get it, he doesn't know if it's too late, and the best time for harvesting depends on the type of pasture.
“Nothing, there is me.” Yuan Zhan spoke.
Yan Mo smiled…. you are so full of shit! However, it is not easy to refute him in front of others. Yan Mo had to follow the trend: ”You don't have to worry about pasture. I and The Leader will find a way.”
Prepare with three hands, hay to pile up, and silage to get apart, Yuan Zhan is a backup, if it’s not going to be easy to do animal husbandry this year. It’s not a big deal, just eat those cows and sheep, and try again next year! He believe that everyone will have experience after a few years.
He heard that there is a way from the Priest, Zheng no longer worried, the matter of breeding cattle and sheep was set.
Yan Mo was busy teaching everyone how to store pasture, and he had no time to find Yu Wu. In order to suppress the bloodstone in Yuan Zhan, he can only send The Fruit of Witchcraft to absorb Yuan Zhan energy every day.
The Fruit of Witchcraft seems to like this very much. Every time it is sucking when it comes time to leaves Yuan Zhan, and it is very reluctant.
Yuan Zhan also felt wrong. He is now a 7th Rank warrior that everyone is shocked by but he can't easily use his energy. He has to be ”taken care of” every day. Fortunately, he sees The Fruit of Witchcraft as his son. He didn't feel this as suffering.
The large amount of prey that the hunting team came back with has been handled to a special person in charge. Now the tribe still implements a unified distribution, but it is no longer an average, but a labor, and the children and the people who lose their labor strength will also get a basic guarantee to continue receiving help from the tribe. The meat and fur that come out are all stored.
These all have the people responsible and everything is well detailed, and they do not need to use Yan Mo and Yuan Zhan to spend more time in this issue.
As for the sheep pens, the cowsheds these were also readied, because the cattle and sheep here are wild and have no lethality. There are warriors dedicated to guarding and feeding them day and night.
Cotton has not been woven, but Yan Mo’s trousers have been made.
On the busy day, five days were fleeting, and the first market trade of Jiu Yuan and nearby tribes was coming soon.
And no one knows. At this time, several strangers were attracted by Jiu Yuan City and changed direction they were going and came to Jiu Yuan City.
