The salted fish couple is fleeing famine
Chapter 313 A bumper harvest
Chapter 313 A bumper harvest
After that, not only Amanlin came to the base camp every three days, but Chief Amu also came every once in a while.
Looking at the corn with long beard, he is very kind.
Because he had to wait at the base camp to collect grain, Heiwa stayed at the base camp for another two months after the New Year.
Break the corn, dig the potatoes, dig the sweet potatoes.
There is no need to pick vegetables all at once, they grow from snack to vegetable.
Both young pumpkins and old pumpkins have their own beauty, and the tomatoes are red and you can eat them one by one!
The sweet potato field on the river bank was the first to ripen.
Next is the ten acres of land near the camp. This work was completed in one day!
Several hundred acres of wasteland will take another month to mature, and the yield is estimated to be higher than the ten acres just harvested.
But these things that have just been taken back have already made Huang Shangshu burst into tears with joy.
Your Majesty, with these high-yielding grains, our people in Great Xia will never go hungry again.
During the harvest, Chief Amu and Amanlin were also invited.
Seeing that in this small area of land, mountains of sweet potatoes and potatoes were dug out.
After the corn cobs are shelled, most of them are thicker than a child's arm, and two corn stalks are knotted together.
The flat and round pumpkin is bigger than the black soil bowl they made themselves. One pumpkin is enough for ten people to eat.
The joy of harvest, coupled with the desire to let Chief Amu intuitively feel the charm of these foods.
Hei Wa didn't let the cooks make those fancy ways to eat it.
I just took a big iron pot, threw the cleaned and tender corn cobs, sweet potatoes, and potatoes into the water and boiled them!
Two old pumpkins were steamed and the pumpkin seeds were dug out, which can be dried and used as seeds.
A large pot of coarse grains was used to entertain Chief Amu.
But this made him happier than inviting Chief Amu to eat meat.
The cooked food was tastier than any plant roots they had ever dug up.
With their special fragrance.
Sweet potatoes have a very sweet taste;
The tender corn is a bit waxy and juicy when chewed;
Although the potatoes are not sweet, they are pink and delicious with a little salt.
The old pumpkin was so sweet that Chief Amu narrowed his eyes with a smile. Even though he had lost several teeth, he enjoyed eating this one the most.
For every grain or fruit received, Heiwa gave Chief Amu two large baskets.
We also gave away a planting atlas for each type of food.
Chief Amu was so excited that after returning, he asked the tribesmen to deliver prey to their base camp for a month.
They have regarded this group of outsiders as the most distinguished and friendly guests of the jungle tribe.
All kinds of living prey, feathers of various colors, and teeth of unknown prey, especially given to Hei Wa.
Just after the food was taken back, Hei Wa couldn't stand the enthusiasm of the natives who brought gifts to their doorsteps every day.
Carrying dozens of baskets of newly harvested corn and potatoes, I went to change shifts with Gao Huaiyu.
"Uncle, are the grains we planted finally ripe?" Gao Huaiyu was pleasantly surprised by Uncle Zhongqin's sudden arrival.
The soldiers here in the mine are still picking sweet potato leaves and eating them as vegetables.
They dug the sweet potatoes under the sweet potato vine several times last month, but they haven't grown yet.
"When it's cooked, this piece can be dug!"
Heiwa originally wanted to share the joy of harvest with General Gao, but Gao Huaiyu, who was in a hurry to return to the base camp, couldn't wait to hand over the work to him and ran away in the blink of an eye.
Seeing his back running away in a hurry, even Shangguan's doctor couldn't help but shake his head.
This General Soldier Gao had already scratched his skin and scratched his itch, so he had enough time to help him catch a lot of poisonous spiders. If the Inca Empire had a lot of medicinal plants, this place where gold was produced had a lot of poisonous insects.
They discovered more than thirty kinds of venomous snakes alone, and extracted a lot of snake venom and snake gallbladder.
In Chinese medicine, snake venom is the source of many medicines, and snake gall is also a traditional Chinese medicine that can moisten the lungs and relieve coughs.
Fortunately, they, the imperial doctors, were stationed halfway up the mountain and saved dozens of brothers several times.
Ants can poison you until your whole body cannot move!
In the past, who would take ants seriously?
The soldiers only regarded poisonous snakes and poisonous spiders as their number one enemies. There were many large ants under the gold mine, five or six times larger than ordinary ants.
Once accidentally bitten by them, it will be like a rusty nail digging into the heel, and then walking barefoot on hot coals, no matter how masculine the man is, he will scream in pain.
Even if you are bitten by this ant on the palm of your hand, you will feel pain in your shoulders and even arms, and you may even be unconscious and unable to move for a few hours.
Shangguan Imperial Physician still had a few brushes, which had a pungent smell, and made a lot of medicine packs to repel ants.
They are everywhere in the mines. They are used to disinfect and relieve the itching of those who are bitten. They use local materials to do whatever they can.
That night, the soldiers digging for gold ate the new grains planted by Uncle Zhongqin - corn and potatoes.
We also took the opportunity to hold a campfire barbecue party for Xinliang.
Hei Wa stewed a large pot of beef together with the tomatoes he had specially set aside for them.
It was so delicious that they asked for more after they finished eating.
The noise of laughter startled the Big Tree Tribe which was not too far from here.
The next day, the female chief brought people over to see what happened.
As soon as they arrived, they found that they were digging a patch of wild vegetables.
Underneath the wild vegetables, there were bunches of roots that they had never seen before.
This scene forced the female chief to come up and ask.
Coincidentally, Heiwa hadn't had breakfast yet, so the soldiers left him cooked sweet potatoes and potatoes.
He gave it directly to the female chief, indicating that she could eat it.
The sweet sweet potatoes and soft potatoes stunned the chief, who was extremely familiar with the plants of this land.
It’s delicious and filling, and it looks like these people grew it themselves!
Although they would also scatter grass seeds around the tribe's big trees, only a few of them could grow up to maturity.
She must replace this delicious rhizome!
The female chieftain was so anxious that she was sweating. After gesticulating for a long time, Heiwa had no choice but to take out a rice paper board and let her draw.
"Want our sweet potatoes? In exchange for grass seeds and prey?" Hei Wa's interpretation was correct, and the female chief drew it very clearly.
"We don't lack this!" Hei Wa scratched his head.
Suddenly I thought of the pigeon eggs that the eldest son and the second son earned for their mother in the Inca Empire.
He quickly took out a few pigeon eggs from his purse (actually from the space) and showed them to the female chief.
"We can exchange this, use this stone, for sweet potatoes!" he said while continuing to draw on the paper.
The female chief was not stupid at all. She took it and took a look.
Most women in this land like this stone that sparkles in the sun.
When they were digging for roots, they would occasionally find them.
Seeing the female chief nodding, Hei Wa finally felt relieved.
He put the sweet potatoes dug out today into five large baskets for the female chief.
He signaled her to take her back to the tribe.
How many diamonds are sweet potatoes worth?
Just let her figure it out.
