Survival of Prehistoric Widows [Farming] - Chapter 71
When Mang happily told Lu Ner of the news, Lu Ner was very surprised and took two pieces of dried sweet potatoes from the side: “Verify, what is this?”
Mang moved his nose and immediately replied: “It’s sweet potatoes.”
“How about the quantity?”
Mang hesitated for a moment, and finally hesitated in a low voice: “Two yuan?”
He just felt that the world was a little brighter now, and he hadn’t fully seen it yet.
Lu Er’s excitement calmed down a lot, touched his head, and happily encouraged him: “I will definitely see it slowly in the future. I will make you an eye chart, and you will check it every day.”
“Okay.” Mang replied obediently, and then heard Lu Er ask him to eat more carrots, his face became a lot more painful.
When handing the sheep to the horns, Mang tilted his head for a moment and specifically reported: “That ewe ate a lot today, and was a little anxious.”
Now the two sheep are still tied to the door of Lu Er and Jiao’s house. After so long, they have become accustomed to the life of being raised, and they are not so afraid of people in the first place.
Jiao walked over and checked the cow, then turned to Lu Er and said, “This sheep seems to be pregnant too.”
When he caught two sheep last year, they were actually not lambs—there were too few roll-horn sheep that gave birth before the cold season, and the newly born lambs would freeze to death in the cold season if they couldn’t wait for the moult.
So the horns barely caught two lambs that had just entered the developmental stage, and now they are almost adult.
Knowing that the ewe was also pregnant with a cub, Lu Er was very happy: “In this way, our children can drink goat’s milk in the future.”
Although the custom of the orcs is to catch the pregnant mother beast from the outside to feed the cubs of the orcs, Lu Yan found it difficult to accept it no matter what he thought.
Being able to milk the domestic sheep, heat and sterilize it before feeding it to the baby, he feels a little more assured.
The pregnant ewes should increase the intensity of grazing, stand still holding the two pieces of dried sweet potatoes and nibbling on them. Hearing the movement here, he immediately finished the dried sweet potatoes and stood up: “I will take it out now. Take a turn!”
…
With the advancement of farming activities, more and more small tribes come to the Hongmu tribe for inquiries about food planting.
At first, Teng was still very surprised. I don’t know where the tribes learned the Redwood tribe’s name.
In the hearts of the Hongmu tribe, although their lives are getting better and better, they still feel that they are just a small tribe in a quiet corner, and no one knows.
The tribe that first came told them: “Now the reputation of the Redwood tribe is not small. You are the only tribe in this great migration that not only did not abandon the tribe, but absorbed many stray orcs. Everyone is very curious about where you came from. food.”
If it’s not enough to eat, who wants to abandon their loved ones?
The Redwood Tribe was the same as them in the past two years. How could this time be unscathed or even stronger?
The tribes with the Jufang tribe or the Heihe tribe learned of the existence of “farming”, and then spread it further, which made more orc tribes have great curiosity about the agriculture of the Hongmu tribe, and they all wanted to cooperate. Learn from the Redwood Tribe.
At the end of this cold season, when everyone went to the Heihe tribe to change salt, they did not see the Hongmu tribe. After inquiring, I learned that the Redwood Tribe had used a “trailer” to change the way of making salt from the Heihe Tribe, and there was no need to come out to change the salt.
Therefore, after the salt was changed, many orcs came to the Redwood tribe, ready to see the fascinating agriculture.
After coming to the Redwood Tribe, they discovered that the Redwood Tribe and the Orc Tribe they knew were simply two worlds.
Before I get close to the Redwood Tribe, I can see the dark fields neatly arranged on a patch of emerald green and messy grass, and there are rows of straight young seedlings in the fields; there are busy orcs dragging back and forth in the fields. The wooden cart was moving, carrying a large jar, and from time to time something was scooped out of the jar and poured into the ground.
After approaching the tribe, what you see is two rows of tall red brick walls on both sides of the road. You can see thick animal skins on it. The road is solid and flat, making it particularly comfortable to step on; occasionally there are open doors to look in. , You can also see the spacious yard and neat haystacks inside.
There are also the sweaters that the orcs wore close to their bodies, the light pottery in their hands, and the enticing scents that emanated from every house…
The orcs who came from other tribes to inquire about the news were so shocked that they couldn’t speak. They just stared and looked everywhere, and there were new things they hadn’t seen before.
When the initial shock passed, most of the orcs made up their minds: Learn! You must learn these good things from the Redwood Tribe! No matter how great the price is spent, we must learn!
Lu Er naturally welcomes this. As long as he confirms that the other party is not a robber like the Xiaoshi tribe, he will happily hand over the planting methods and some basic grains to these small tribes, just like they did for the Tusk tribe before.
At the same time, Lu Er also took the opportunity to promote their copper coins, requiring them to buy technology and purchase grains all with copper coins.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t have copper coins. You can use valuable things to exchange for copper coins after setting a price at the Redwood Tribe exchange.
Many foreign orcs, even the orcs of the Redwood tribe themselves, find it difficult to understand why they have to go through a program so troublesome. Lu Yan did not force them to understand it thoroughly. He only roughly explained the role and meaning of this way of promoting currency. It is required that the tribes also trade currency and avoid bartering.
The pricing of various items was recognized by the general public in the tribe, and Lu Ling made fine-tuning, and finally handed it over to the best mathematician for implementation.
Therefore, copper coins can be used initially.
…
In terms of diplomacy, in addition to Li being the head of the exchange, Zitong also assumed a similar role as a “secretary”. Neither of them understood why Lu Er was so generous to give out their experience.
The little fox pouted and complained: “Green ears, why should we send out all our good things?”
These farming knowledge and experience are all taught by Lu Ye with great pains. In Li’s eyes, they are the treasures of their Hongmu tribe. How can they be willing to teach them to outsiders?
Lu Er smiled mildly and touched his head: “Everyone becomes rich, so we can go to the next level; if only we are rich, what if others come to grab us?”
“Let the horns beat them all back!” Leon raised his head and proudly said, “The horns are very powerful!”
Lu Wei laughed. This little guy was working against the horn in front of the horn, and praised the horn in front of him. The fox really had the attributes of arrogance.
“You can’t think of it like this. Knowledge itself is priceless, but the spread of knowledge should not be blocked by humans.” Lu Yan took a sip of warm water and patiently explained, “Since we have stabilized, then It is also our responsibility as pioneers to pass on the knowledge and experience we have so that people who are still struggling to survive can eat.”
Li was a little bit understandable, but Zitong’s face on the side had some thoughtfulness.
Lu Wei knew his words were still difficult for them to fully understand, but he only temporarily planted seeds in their hearts. The “Three Views” still need them to slowly shape as their experience grows.
The minds of most orcs are very straightforward, they don’t have too much gossiping about their emotions, anger, sorrow, and joy. A lot of “evil” comes from ignorance. Lu Er planned to spread the knowledge a long time ago, educate them to be sensible, and let the simple nature of the orcs play their true value.
Now the Hongmu tribe has basically escaped the pressure of food and clothing, and has begun to develop a further civilization; then other tribes want to follow the Hongmu tribe, and Lu Er is also happy to lead them forward.
And there are many technologies that are very dependent on the basic level of the public. No matter how much modern knowledge is put in Lu Er’s head, it will not be possible to achieve it without a stable and prosperous social condition. Although agriculture has just started, Lu Er has already anticipated the future industrial development and technological innovation in advance, so it is natural to lay the foundation as early as possible.
…
Lu Yan was busy giving “agricultural knowledge lectures” to the orcs of other tribes, and had to deal with other orcs every day, which made the possessive lion orcs start to feel unhappy again.
—His sub-beast is now surrounding the other orcs every day! Those orcs were all hairy when they became beast-shaped, don’t think he didn’t see it!
When Lu Lin’s longing eyes were cast on the orcs other than himself, the horns were so sour that they couldn’t bite the sweet potatoes.
He still had to do the farm work in the fields, and he couldn’t stay by Lu Er’s side all the time. For this reason, he turned into a big white lion before going out every morning, showing cuteness to his orcs without dignity, attracting Lu Wei to lick a handful of big cats, and then go out with a little peace of mind.
In addition, Horn regained the skills of a “barber” and enthusiastically and toughly shaved the beasts who came from afar for free, so that they could learn how to make wool with raw materials.
In fact, for the orcs of other tribes, the priority of sweaters is very low, and they want to remember farming-related knowledge with their brains that are not easy to remember.
But the look in the eyes of the lion orc was a “suggestion” in name, but it was actually a “command.” Most orcs who can be entrusted by other tribal leaders to diplomacy are more flexible in nature, and very moved “voluntarily” agreed.
Part of the orcs who had been fooled and the other part of the unwilling orcs quietly turned into beasts and lay on the ground, and then were shaved off by Kakuto’s paws and West’s paws, and the whole body was shaved with uneven hair, which was horribly ugly.
Every orc who survived the lion’s paws finally walked out of the yard with a dreamy face holding his fur, his footsteps vain.
Lu Wei naturally understood the little actions that Jiao had made, and reluctantly blamed him at night: “Aren’t you afraid of enmity with other tribes like this?”
“As long as the Redwood Tribe still has something they want to follow, they won’t be angry.” Jiao hugged Lu Er from behind, and gently caressed Lu Er’s already big belly with his hand, somewhat reluctantly, “Who let They become animal-shaped in front of you!”
Lu Er couldn’t laugh or cry: “They don’t know that I like plush.”
“That won’t work either.” Horn buried his head on Lu Er’s shoulder, and whispered in a muffled voice, “You are my Asian beast.”
Perhaps it was because he was the first to be tempted, or it was because Lu Yan came from another world. It was obvious that the beast talent should be the more independent and powerful one, but the security of the horns was much lower than that of Lu Yan.
“It’s yours.” Lu Wen stretched out his hand and gently touched the orc’s pure white hair, tilted his head and kissed him gently, “Don’t worry, the only partner I recognize will always be you.”
When these words came out, Jiao’s heart was as sweet as drinking honey, and the feeling of aggrieved and uneasy heart was relieved a lot these days.
When he was settled, he felt embarrassed again: Mingming Lu is still so busy with a baby in his stomach, not only does he not share his worries, but he adds to the chaos…
Lu Er actually thinks it’s pretty good—the little fun between these couples, occasionally, can actually increase the relationship.
Although he fell in love with the horns and conceived a cub for the horns, Lu Ling never thought of himself as a dependent party, but liked the attitude of horns attached to him very much.
Although their size difference is completely reversed.
This orc has both wild charm and adult responsibility, and is not lacking in childish cuteness.
Lu Er felt that he might not find someone he likes so much in his life.
