Chapter 2087 Stock up on food

Ah Cha sighed, sat next to Xiao Se, pointed to the words on the wooden board and asked her, "What are these words?"

"This is the word "Pudzu" for Pueraria lobata." Xiao Se clicked on the word "Pueraria" with the charcoal pen in his hand, "Dig them out and process them to make delicious ones."

She sighed secretly: "Our tribe is getting bigger and bigger, and the number of people is getting larger and larger. We have to store a lot of food, otherwise there won't be enough to eat."

She tapped the charcoal on the board with her eyebrows furrowed: "Think about it, if there is no food on the ship, you are very hungry, you have been hungry for three days, and all you see are people except water, how can you manage?"

Ah Cha imagined that scene and couldn't help but shuddered: "People can't get enough just by drinking water..."

There was fear in her eyes. What should I do if I don't have enough water to drink but I am very hungry?
At that time, the only thing that could be eaten was people...and then there was a scene of people eating people. Just thinking about it makes me tremble.

Xiao Se held Ah Cha's hand and comforted her: "I'm not afraid, so I will work hard to stock up on food to ensure that everyone on the ship has a mouthful of food to eat every day. There will never be a tragic incident of cannibalism."

No one knows how long they will last together, so she must first control her food.

Stop talking about three meals a day, two meals a day is impossible.

One meal a day is the most appropriate amount.

When the common water comes, the sky connects with the earth, and the earth connects with the sky.

When there is only water and you cannot fight wild animals, there is no need to waste food to maintain your strength.

Of course, patrols are another matter.

Today's ships have no engines, no propellers, and no such large slurry. They are just a shell that holds people.

Therefore, the ships are built to serve as a safe haven. If you don’t work hard, you don’t need to eat.

But even if they have one meal a day, they have to persist until the water recedes and they can land on land again.

Otherwise, it will be all in vain.

Xiao Se was worried and toiled: "This food must be enough. If it is not enough, chaos will easily occur, hacking will occur, and eventually people will die because of food grabbing."

Ah Cha pursed her lips and said what she least wanted to say: "Then can't we just take those people with us?"

Xiao Se asked her with a smile: "Can you see a little baby in the water asking for help and not save her?"

Ah Cha was silent.

Little babies cannot ignore death, old people cannot ignore death, females cannot ignore death, and individual males cannot ignore death.

Well, in that kind of death situation, no matter how cruel the male is, he is still fragile. You can't tell whether he is good or bad.

All you know is that in that situation, he weakly shouted to you for help, and you couldn't bear not to save him.

Xiao Se patted her hand: "Why do you want to recruit so many tribesmen? It's not because we don't have enough manpower. Since we have to use them later, it's better to use them now."

"Don't wait until we have worked so hard to finish everything and let them come to the boat and lie down waiting for food."

"Now they are our tribe, we promise to give them a bite to eat and they will be obedient."

"You can survive if you obey. In fact, they don't have bad intentions, they just want to eat enough."

"Then I will try to stock up on more food so that they can eat enough."

"When the time comes, we will work together to survive."

Ah Cha hummed and said with a smile, "I listen to you."

Yes, she also wanted to be full at first, so she became better and better towards Arthur, and finally surrendered to Arthur completely.

Ah Cha can still recall the taste of the barbecue that Arthur made for the first time.

In fact, all tribesmen have only one purpose, and that is to eat.

As long as they have enough to eat, they can do whatever they want.

The topic stopped here, Ah Cha sat next to Xiao Se, listening to her plans after the arrival of Gong Shui, and watching her write and make strokes.

The sun gradually went down, and the whole tribe was boiling.The tribesmen who hunt the fish beasts wash and dry the fish beasts at the same time.

The weather at this time is very fierce, and the fish and animal meat are well dried and well preserved, so there is absolutely no problem in eating it for a year or two.

The tribesmen who picked up chestnuts poured the chestnuts on the ground. Some of the cracked chestnuts were old people and some tribesmen with limited legs and feet peeled them open.

Some of these peeled chestnuts must be eaten early, otherwise they will spoil.

If you can store it for a while, just put it away. Most of the good ones are put directly into the basket to be eaten later.

Now is the time to save food, so naturally we should save everything we can.

Ah Xi manages the kitchen. She knows very well what can be stored and what cannot be put away.

She needs to understand these, then plan these, and then ensure that every clan member has food.

This is not an easy and simple thing, it is tiring and troublesome, but Axi likes this feeling.

They came back after a good harvest from hunting, and not only brought back wild animals, but also winter melons and radishes.

Xiao Se looked at the winter melon and radish and was overjoyed: "Finally found these two. This place is really rich in products!"

All in all, rice, wheat, kudzu, chestnut, sugar cane, winter melon, radish, not including more than a dozen kinds of fruits are found here.

The terrain here is a little flatter than where they used to live. Although there are mountains, they are not just here and there. The terrain is much more open.

So the vegetables, weeds and other things here all grow in large areas.

Wild vegetables are picked and dried to make pickles, which are eaten when it is time to eat. It is a delicious dish.

The river here is a whole river, not like they have one big lake here and another big lake there.

Therefore, fish, beasts and crocodiles are concentrated in one place. As long as the hunting tribesmen go around that place, they will not encounter crocodiles.

If you want to hunt the fish beast, it is very convenient. Just go to that location and hunt the fish beast.

Xiao Se looked at the winter melon and radish, smiled and said to A Xi: "Tonight we will add another winter melon, let them taste it, and let them carry more tomorrow."

Ah Xi said loudly: "Okay, the delicious winter melon will be ready soon!"

Winter melon is easy to rot and easy to cook. Cut it thinly and stir-fry with shredded pork, then stew it in water. Add some salt to add flavor. It will be so fresh that it will be swallowed by the tongue.

The radish takes a little longer to cook, so I won’t eat it tonight.

Just the winter melon dish can let the tribesmen know that these two dishes are delicious, and they will definitely bring them back with 12 hearts tomorrow.

The winter melon brought was just enough for everyone to have a meal. Shredded pork and water were added, and ten pots were filled.

After eating a bite of greasy barbecue and drinking a mouthful of fragrant winter melon soup, all the tribesmen narrowed their eyes with smiles.

"It turns out this is called winter melon, and it's so delicious. When I saw it before, it had a strange smell, which I hated. But it turns out it's so delicious."

"That weird smell is because the winter melon is rotten. You have to tear it off and eat it when it's not rotten."

"When it was not rotten, I pulled it off and ate it. When I took a bite, my mouth was cut by the thorns on it. It was not delicious at all."

"That's because it's not yet ripe, it has thorns, and it's still hard."

"Yes, some are hard, some are soft, and they have no taste at all, and I don't like them either."

"I've eaten it before when I was very hungry. It made me want to vomit. I might as well eat raw meat."

"You don't want to vomit now, so it has to be Arthur. Without Arthur, how would you know that winter melon is so delicious?"

"My mother-in-law said she likes to eat winter melon. It is not as hard as barbecued meat and is very comfortable to eat."

"I, I want to move the winter melons tomorrow."

"I'll go as well."
