The Rise of Primitive Tribes Farming

Chapter 171 Fruit Tree Harvest
The sixth year of the establishment of the Mang tribe, the third month of summer.

Honghua was walking in the fruit grove, and members of the Yuanshu tribe, including Hongye, were beside her.

More than two years have passed, and the small fruit forest at the beginning has now expanded to more than 300 mu, and the dozens of mu of fruit trees planted at the beginning have begun to bear fruit in large quantities.

The fleshy fruit is ripe, and the fruity fragrance permeates the whole fruit forest.

"After working hard for so long, and waiting for so long, this day is finally here."

The safflower picks off a fully ripe fruit, which is not hard but somewhat soft.

Safflower peeled off the gray skin to reveal the red flesh inside. She took a bite, and the taste was like eating meat, but it was more fragrant than meat.

"With these fleshy fruits, those of us who grow fruit trees can hold our heads up in the tribe in the future."

Honghua let out a long breath.

Most of them from the tree tribe are women and children, and they don't have many other skills. Apart from making bark clothes and collecting gum, the way to create the greatest value is to plant fruit trees.

No matter which tribe they are in, food always comes first, even the Mang tribe is no exception.

If you don't have to wear clothes, you only need to worry about winter, but if you don't have to eat, you will starve to death at any time.

Hongye said a little excitedly: "Sister, this year's fruit tree harvest is so good, the leader will reward us?"

Honghua looked at her brother and said, "There should be rewards, what does brother want?"

Hong Ye took out her stone knife and said, "I want a stone knife made of high-quality stone, Lie and the others have them, but I don't have one yet."

Hong Hua said: "Then you can tell the leader yourself, I think the leader will agree."

Hongye hesitated for a moment, but in the end he still didn't ask his sister to ask Chen Bei, because he knew that his sister would definitely refuse.

Honghua's personality is stronger and straighter, so it's okay to let her go all out, but it's very, very difficult to ask her to beg for help...

Two days later, the fruit picking officially started, and the baskets of fruit brought the joy of a good harvest to the entire tribe. They were all food!

Chen Bei also came to the fruit forest, looking at the people busy picking fruit, he was in a good mood.

Hongye followed beside him.

Hong Ye picked off a fist-sized ripe fruit, smiled and handed it to Chen Bei, saying: "Leader, taste it."

Chen Bei took the meat and fruit, tasted it, and said: "Yes, you have grown it very well. With these meat and fruit that can satisfy hunger, the tribe can save more food."

Chen Bei is very satisfied. Ordinary fruits can only be used as food supplements, but these fleshy fruits can be used as staple food. Back then, one of the staple foods of the tree tribe was fleshy fruit.

Hongye smiled and said: "Not only the fleshy fruit, but also the bear's palm fruit tree and other fruit trees this year, all of them are full of fruit, and they will mature in two months. This year is a bumper harvest."

Chen Bei was in a good mood, and said: "Very good, so we can support more people, tell me, what reward do you want."

How smart is Chen Bei?Hongye has always been by his side, always looking hesitant to speak, he knew that this guy must have something to ask, but he was too embarrassed to ask.

This year's harvest of fruit trees, according to the usual practice, is to reward those who planted trees, so as long as Hongye doesn't ask too much, Chenbei will agree.

A look of joy appeared on Hong Ye's face. While observing Chen Bei's expression, he said, "Boss, I...I want a stone knife polished with high-quality stone..."

It turned out that it was for this matter, and Chen Bei directly agreed: "No problem, I will let the stone tool workshop polish it for you."

"Great, thank you leader."

Hongye heaved a sigh of relief, he didn't expect Chenbei to agree so readily, he came to the Mang tribe, and to be honest, he hasn't done much meritorious service, and he didn't do as much as Honghua.

Chenbei continued to walk forward, and Hongye followed.

After walking for a while, Chen Bei considered his words and said, "Hongye, I remember you were not like this before."

"Before..." Hongye's smiling face froze, and her steps became much stiffer.

Chen Bei patted Hong Ye on the shoulder and said, "I know, because of the Tree Tribe, it will hit you hard, but that's over, and even the Insect Tribe has been wiped out by us."

"So, be more confident. In the past two years, Honghua has worked very hard. I hope you can share some of it for her."

In fact, Honghua is more than hard, this stubborn woman, in order to lead those women and children to gain a foothold in the Mang tribe, so as not to be looked down upon by others, she is simply working hard.

"I...I'm sorry for her..."

Hongye suddenly cried, and the tears flowed down in a "swipe", unable to stop.

That was the younger sister he had tried everything possible to protect, but what had he done in the past two years?
How could he let his sister shoulder all the responsibilities, while he himself shrank back, enjoying his sister's protection with peace of mind.

Chen Bei's words were like a hammer knocking on Hong Ye's heart, violently breaking open his closed heart, leaving him nowhere to hide and no reason to hide anymore.

Chen Bei patted Hong Ye's shoulder again, and said: "Hong Ye, cheer up early, I hope, I can see the old you, not the current one."

After Chen Bei finished speaking, he turned and left.

Hongye leaned against a fruit tree and slid slowly on the ground. The scenes of the past reappeared in his heart. Only then did he realize that in the past two years, he had been evading responsibility. everything.

"I was wrong, wrong..."

Hongye sat on the ground, didn't get up for a long time, and didn't care about the eyes of others.

Honghua saw Hongye's appearance from a distance, she wanted to go over to ask, but was stopped by Chen Bei.

Chen Bei said: "Let him stay alone for a while, he can't hang around like this anymore, otherwise this person will be useless."

Honghua hesitated for a while, but finally nodded, followed Chenbei to inspect the fruit forest, and did not go to comfort Hongye.

……

After another month, Chenbei's bone spear was finally made.

Chen Bei came to the place where Hei Ke lived again, where he saw two thick bone spears.

The two bone spears were almost identical, and the spearheads were ground from the hardest tusks of the megalodon, which was not only extremely sharp, but also not easy to damage.

Chen Bei picked up one of the bone spears. Its main shaft was made of a straight bush. After cutting it back, he scraped off the skin with a small stone knife and ground it little by little. It felt very comfortable to the touch.

At the spearhead, the huge fangs were ground into a flat prism, not only at the tip, but also on both sides. They were also very sharp, and could be chopped or stabbed.

The joint between the spearhead and the pole is wrapped with animal tendons, tied, and then glued with fish glue, which is very strong.

In addition, these two bone spears are longer and thicker than those used by other warriors, so that Chen Bei can perform better while sitting on the tall rhinoceros king and charging.

Hei Ke looked at Chen Bei and said expectantly: "Boss, how are you doing, are you satisfied?"

Chen Bei nodded affirmatively, and said: "Very good, it's better than I imagined, I'm very satisfied."

Hei Ke smiled proudly: "These two bone spears took me a lot of thought, and I knew the leader would be satisfied."

Chen Bei took a serious look at Hei Ke again. This man is really a genius in making bone tools. Unfortunately, he broke a leg.

After Chen Bei took the bone spear back, he gave Hei Ke a lot of good animal bones, food, salt, clothes, etc. as a reward.

After the appearance of those two bone spears in the tribe, Hei Ke's reputation became even greater, and more totem warriors asked him to make bone tools. With this craft, Hei Ke's life in the tribe became better and better.
