The Rise of Primitive Tribes Farming

Chapter 460 I want to grow herbs

There is a large drying field in front of the granary of the Mang tribe. Reed mats and bamboo mats are used to dry food, dried vegetables, etc. Every autumn harvest, many people are needed to help in the drying field.

"Boom!"

A large number of dark clouds suddenly gathered in the sky, and muffled thunder resounded.

"It's going to rain, pack up your things!"

"Hurry up……"

A few dark clouds made the people in the drying yard busy, and hurriedly put the dried grain into sacks, bamboo baskets, and rattan baskets, and then picked them into the warehouse to avoid being drenched by the rain.

Thorny Willow is also here to help. After she came to the Mang Tribe from West Desert, she first followed Green Spider, but she didn't have the talent to manage supplies, so she could only do some heavy work. Later, Green Spider sent her here to help up.

Thorny Willow first pulled up the huge bamboo mat with great effort, so that the grain on the bamboo mat gathered into a pile, and then quickly pulled the grain into the sack, tied the mouth of the bag, and carried it to the granary.

Tribal people, both men and women, are very strong. Even without the power of the awakened totem, it is very easy to carry a sack of grain, more than 100 catties.

But Thorn Willow is thin and weak, unlike other tribal women who are tall and thick, so it is a bit difficult for her to carry it, her body is like a tight bow, and beads of sweat are dripping down her face.

"Let me do it."

Just as Thorny Willow was struggling to move a large sack to the warehouse, a gentle man's voice rang in her ears.

Thorny Willow felt his shoulders lighten, and the sack had been easily taken away.

She raised her head, a few strands of hair wet with sweat stuck to her face, slightly blocking her view.

When she saw Chen Bei, she easily picked up the big sack, and even grabbed two big big sacks with one hand, and carried them to the warehouse together, her steps were very light.

"The leader is really powerful."

Thorn Willow looked at Chen Bei's tall back, was in a daze, and remembered everything that had happened in the desert.

"Why are you standing there, hurry up and collect it, it's going to rain."

Someone nearby urged the thorn willow, if the food gets wet and moldy, it will be troublesome.

"Oh... oh... right now..."

Thorny Willow clumsily followed them to collect grain, and from time to time, Chen Bei could be seen carrying large bags of harvested grain to the granary.

Fortunately, this time the rain did not fall quickly. After all the grain in the drying yard had been harvested, the sky gradually began to see sporadic raindrops.

Later, the rain became heavier and heavier, and the people in charge of drying went to the granary or under the eaves to avoid the rain.

Someone complained: "The weather is really frustrating. The sun shines every day when you don't dry things, but it often rains when you start drying food."

Someone nearby said, "Yeah, it would be great if it was like a while ago. It can be kept in the sun from morning to night before harvesting."

……

Thorny Willow stood alone under the eaves in the distance, not with everyone. There was a hazy rain curtain in front of her eyes, and the ticking sound of rain came from her ears.

Thorny Willow stretched out her hand, letting the rainwater from the eaves wash over her palm, flow through the back of her hand, and fall to the ground again.

Perhaps because of living in the arid desert since childhood, Thorny Willow does not hate rain, and even likes rainy days.

If it wasn't for the fact that she had to work after the rain stopped, she really wanted to rush into the heavy rain and get drenched in the rain to her heart's content.

"What is a man thinking here?"

Chen Bei didn't know when he came to the side of Ci Liu, but the sudden sound startled Ci Liu, when she turned her head, she saw Chen Bei's smiling face, so she lowered her head in embarrassment.

"Hello, Chief..."

Chen Bei also put his hand into the rain, let the rain wash his palm, and said to Ciliu: "Don't be nervous, I won't eat you, in fact, I also like the feeling of water flowing through my palm."

"Really? I thought I was the only one who liked it."

Ciliu's expression was a little surprised, and Chen Bei's simple words made her feel a lot less afraid, and her mind relaxed.

"Of course, when the water is flowing, it's cool and comfortable."

Chen Bei didn't take his hand back, and asked with a relaxed expression: "How is life in the Mang tribe during this time? Has anyone bullied you?"

Thorn Willow hurriedly waved her hands and said, "No, no, everyone treats me very well."

She was brought back to the tribe by Chen Bei himself. Although she came from an outside tribe, no one dared to bully her because they were afraid of making Chen Bei angry.

Even Green Spider felt that Thorn Willow was too stupid and poor in arithmetic, so she didn't say anything harsh, but sent her to the granary to do some simple work.

"That's good, but I think you don't seem very happy, you have been depressed, can you tell me why?"

Ever since Chen Bei brought Thorn Willow back from the desert, he threw her to Green Spider, and has not cared much about her. Now that he met her today, it is unreasonable to leave her alone.

Thorny Willow hesitated for a moment, summoned up his courage, and said, "Boss, I don't like looking at warehouses."

"Then what do you like to do? Let's hear it." Chen Bei withdrew his hand from the rain curtain, the power of the totem surged slightly, and the water on his hand was evaporated immediately.

"I like to grow herbs!" Thorn Willow's eyes sparkled when he mentioned herbs.

"Herbal medicine?" Chen Bei looked at her in surprise, this was the first time someone told him that he liked to grow herbal medicine.

"Yes, grow herbs."

Thorn Willow explained: "The girls who live with me are witch doctor apprentices. They often say that there are too few herbs in the tribe now, and the little herbs brought back by the hunting team are not enough at all."

"Although Wu's yard is full of herbs, the yard is too small to be used."

"The witch asked all the witch doctor apprentices to bring herbal seeds back to plant. Because I lived with them, I also learned a lot of herbal planting methods, and I begged them to share some seeds with me."

"Now, the herbs I planted are growing very well. If the leader doesn't believe me, I can take you to see it."

After listening to Ciliu's words, Chen Bei nodded and said, "Then wait for the rain to stop, go and have a look."

Mang tribe's herbs are not enough, Chen Bei is naturally aware of this, but he has too many things to do, so he doesn't care about the herbs.

In fact, planting herbs is a very technical job, because there are many kinds of herbs and their habits are different, so it is not easy to grow them well.

Since thorny willows like to grow herbs, and the Mang tribe just needs them, Chen Bei thinks that he might as well give her a chance to try.

If it works, everyone is happy, if it doesn't work, there is no big loss, anyway, it's just letting the willow try alone, and at most it will pay a price of a little seed.

After the rain stopped, Ci Liu couldn't wait to take Chen Bei to the place where she lived with several witch doctor apprentices.

In the Mang tribe, only those who have made great achievements or formed a big family will be allocated an independent house.

Most people still need to live with others.

After all, houses are limited, and it is impossible to have one for each person. That would be too wasteful, and the Mang tribe is not yet rich to that extent.

The same is true for Thorn Willow, she lives in a house with several witch doctor apprentices, and there is a small yard in the house.

When Chen Bei passed by, he could smell a medicinal fragrance from a distance, which was emitted by mature herbs.

"Squeak!"

Thorny Willow pushed open the gate of the yard and invited Chen Bei into the yard.

I saw that the yard was divided into several areas, and a large number of herbs were planted.

The herbs planted in some areas are weak and the growth is relatively poor, while some areas grow better.

Thorn Willow took Chen Bei to the front of the area where the herbs grow most lushly, and said proudly: "Boss, look, I planted them all."

Chen Bei looked around carefully, and was surprised to find that these herbs grew really well, and many of them were ripe and fruitful, exuding bursts of medicinal fragrance.

Chen Bei looked at this girl from the desert again. There is no doubt that she does have a certain talent in planting herbs.

Chen Bei thought for a while, and said: "How about this, I will ask the planting team to allocate a piece of land for you, and then I will ask Wu to give you some herbal seeds. You can try to plant them first, and I will ask the green spider to rearrange people in the warehouse. .”

"Thank you leader, I will definitely grow herbs well!"

Thorny Willow almost jumped up in surprise, she was finally able to do what she likes to do.
