Chapter 258 (1/2)

Busy days always make people feel like they are passing quickly. In addition to the adjustment of green skylark, Depp and Sheila, stone bear doesn't know what to do. A month has passed.

A month's time is enough to make Xiaohe tribe change again.

The old, useless wooden houses were all knocked down. The river tribe, which used to occupy more than half of the valley, only left a small piece of wooden houses along the river.

A large isolation zone was built.

Corresponding guard posts were set up on the commanding heights around the valley, and soldiers took dogs to guard posts every day.

In a word, after more than a month's busy work, Xiaohe tribe has come out of the dead atmosphere.

With the arrival of strawberry month (June), the whole Xiaohe tribe is showing a kind of vitality. Because this not only means that the northern hemisphere begins to enter the midsummer, but also means that the annual summer harvest is coming.

Although the North American Indians are not very proficient in planting, the sowing and harvesting time of crops in the northern hemisphere are generally the same. So even if the Indians can't do intensive farming, there are still summer and autumn harvests every year.

Unlike the gaoshu tribe, the Xiaohe tribe has entered the stage of intensive cultivation. The cultivation of the Xiaohe tribe is still in a very primitive and rough stage. Well, there is no difference between the Xiaohe tribe and the gaoshu tribe last year.

Therefore, even though the Xiaohe tribe opened up a lot of farmland, and the enemy hardly destroyed the farmland in the last war, the stone bear did not expect that this primitive and rough farming method could harvest much food.

It's like the wheat planted by the Xiaohe tribe at the end of February every year can be harvested in mid June.

But this kind of harvest is really better than nothing. The average yield per mu is less than 100 Jin or even 70 Jin or 80 Jin. How much wheat can you expect to harvest?

And corn, not to mention that.

Who knows what the people who taught them how to grow these crops thought. They planted them blindly when they couldn't even know the best time. It would be strange if the harvest was good.

Take wheat as an example. It's not the wheat that has not been sown in spring. It's called spring wheat. But spring wheat is usually sown in March and April and harvested in July and August. Moreover, most of the areas where spring wheat is planted are in the colder north.

For example, in the latitude of Xiaohe tribe, honest planting of winter wheat is the best.

As a result, the people of Xiaohe tribe have been like this all these years. Sow in spring, harvest in summer, then sow, and harvest in late autumn.

And basically no matter what seeds are sown, no one does anything like watering or weeding.

In this way, they are lucky enough to get the seeds back.

Thanks to the right sowing time, there are also high-yield potatoes, and thanks to the potatoes, otherwise the people of Xiaohe tribe will starve every year.

In the past, there was no instruction from the Xiaohe tribe. Now the stone bear is coming, and the stone bear plans to develop this place into a bridgehead for the West. Therefore, it is very necessary to establish a food base here.
