When Pan Geng moved to Yin, I initiated Jian Shang

Chapter 33 Eight Major Gramineae Plants

"Hurry up and see what's going on?" Akaishi Frog was startled and asked the tribesmen to take a look at this slave.

The tribesmen came up quickly: "He has eaten poisonous weeds! He is very happy."

When Xinqu heard this, he looked at Akaishi Frog again: "There are poisonous weeds in the pasture?"

"Ah... there will definitely be some mixed in. But it doesn't matter, most of them are fine. Even if there is a problem, the livestock won't eat it." Akaishi Frog assured, patting his chest.

Xinqu frowned instead: "That won't work. You can bring in those sheep that are full, and then try to feed them grass. If they don't eat or have problems eating, just ask the slaves to pull out the poisonous grass." .”

"This, this, this..." Chishiwa hesitated, but Xinqu reached out and hooked him, "I think it's better to forget it, just cover one third of it, you retreat..."

"Oh, my friend! It's not easy to tell the difference! In this way, I can provide you with high-quality forage. There may still be poisonous parts, but not much! I promise!"

Akaishiwa covered his pocket. The shell coins were already in his pocket. He still wanted to go back?

Don't even think about it.

Then Akaishi Frog grabbed the grass next to him and said: "Look, this is high-quality grass. When the fruits are ripe, you can cook them to satisfy your hunger. I guarantee that this grass is absolutely not poisonous. We have always grown it, and people can eat it." .”

Xin Qu took a look and confirmed that it was wheat and that it was about to mature. He was a little satisfied.

"There's more to high-quality forage than this, you see." Akaishi Frog grabbed a nearby one. Xinqu looked at it carefully and said in surprise, "Buckwheat?"

"Buckwheat? Oh, we call this grass the riverside flower. It is also a high-quality forage and will bear fruit, but it tastes very bitter!"

The red stone frog soon discovered new grass, grabbed one and showed it to Xinqu: "This is called barley! And this one, Yan (oats, the wheat that birds like to eat)."

Xinqu was confused. It turned out that the Chishi tribe could not only distinguish wheat, but also barley, oats, and buckwheat?

What the hell!I underestimated this tribe.

"Will you take the seeds from above and scatter them on the ground?"

“Yes, high-quality pasture requires high-quality pasture seeds.

Scatter it in spring, and it will be eaten by cattle and sheep in summer. Get some in autumn for slaves to eat in the winter, which can save a lot of food. "

Akaashi Frog triumphantly explained: "This is the best forage. My friend, I will definitely not treat you badly!"

"Hahaha, great. When I take it back later, I want to see how they will criticize me!"

Xinqu clenched his fists and continued to maintain his character.

Akaishi Frog was promoting it, and then passed by the slope and saw a bunch of sorghum. He picked the stalk and handed it to Xin Qu: "Friend, sweet stalks, delicious."

Xinqu took it, and then Chishi Frog picked up a piece of grass by the river and said, "By the way, there is also this one, this one is also sweet."

The stalks are fifty centimeters high, with flat linear leaves and barnyard grass covered with spikelets.

Xinqu was already chewing the sweet sorghum stalks as usual.

Along the way, the Akaishi Tribe’s side is not a pasture at all, but a grass plant ecosystem.

Basically, varieties of grasses that can survive in the north can be found here.

If there is barnyard grass now, then there must be rice nearby. Go to the river to look for it later.

It’s just that!

After asking carefully, I found out that they were not a tribe that lived in the north from the beginning.

Instead, they moved north more than 1000 years ago and traveled all the way from north to south as nomads before settling down as herders.

Most of the various grasses are high-quality forage. They often collect the remnants in the fall, give the edible ones to the slaves, and throw the rest in the pasture in the spring.

This kind of food is mixed and fed to cattle and sheep. It has become a habit for more than 1000 years since the cold and summer came.

It's just that they didn't choose farming. Xinqu can also roughly see the specific reasons. Between the mountains and forests of Huairou and Miyun, the Chaohe River and the Baihe River flow from them. In the piedmont alluvial fan plain nourished by the two rivers, it can be very easy. Easily graze large numbers of cattle and sheep.

So the Chishi tribe chose the lifestyle of sitting as pastoralists, and they also had the habit of dividing their families.Lots are drawn every ten years, and the young people who are drawn need to migrate away with the cattle, sheep and horses given to them by the clan.

They often go to the north and become new nomadic tribes.

Because most of them are related to the northern nomads by marriage, and those tribes who defected to them in the past tend to accept them.

Therefore, the Akaishi tribe has always maintained more than a thousand people.

I can't afford more.

After walking around for a while and returning to the Chishi tribe, the legs of every man with the Xin clan were weak.

Apparently it has been requested many times.

Xinqu didn't say anything. He had encountered too many similar things.

The girls of many tribes are very enthusiastic and will hardly give up the opportunity for genetic exchange with their friend tribes.

Because this is a way to reduce the birth of deformed children within the clan.

"Chief, you are back." Xingrendong covered his waist: "The women of the Red Rock Tribe are too difficult to deal with."

"Ahem, just call me Qu." Xin Qu lowered his voice, "How are the cows and horses doing?"

"It's almost as you think. If you don't keep an eye on it, they will definitely stuff the cows and horses that are still a year away from adulthood. The three of us turned a blind eye and got three bronze daggers from them. The young and weak ones were replaced by some older and stronger cattle and horses. But why do they have to be older?"

Xingren Dong asked Xinqu doubtfully.

"Herds of cattle and horses need leaders. Older people have advantages. Pull them into a stable alone, and the leader should be decided tomorrow. They are a little older, but still not a boy who is not yet a minor. Knocked down.

When the time comes to control the leader, just pull him away.Furthermore, the old horse knows the way. When communicating with the Chishi tribe in the future, if the old horse is holding the hand, it will not be easy to get lost. "

Xinqu explained a little. In fact, he hoped that the Chishi tribe would have already completed the level classification when raising them, so that it would save more effort.

"Okay, what about food?"

"The area at the bottom of the mountain belongs to us. I collected twenty bags of millet."

"As expected of the clan leader! With just one thousand shellfish, we can get ten times the harvest from normal trade in previous years. Along the way, there are people helping us harvest forage!" Xingren Dong smacked his tongue. Xin Qu had been showing off his trade, but he didn't expect to break through it again. Achievements.

"Not only that, there is also an unexpected harvest. Yan, buckwheat, wheat, camel, rice, beam, barnyard millet, and millet are all available."

Xinqu grinned. The thousand-year tradition of the Chishi tribe, although based on the need for pasture, also brought him a bunch of seeds.

Maybe you can learn it yourself, broadcast it first, and then tame the best ones.

However, Xinqu discovered that after walking around, he did not find rye, but instead saw a pile of barnyard grass.

It seems that he subconsciously believed that there must be poisonous wheat in the wheat fields. At this time, transportation was inconvenient, and the poisonous wheat from Europe should not have been introduced yet.

in this way……

Xin Qu's eyes moved slightly, thinking.

The Chishi tribe is sitting on the treasure mountain and doesn’t know what to do!

"I should have earned it with my blood!"

The bonfire lit up the hall, and the top brass of the Akaishi tribe looked at the salt shakers and shell coins, all smiling brightly.

"Well done!" The senior officials of the Red Rock Tribe looked at him with admiration.

"I'm asking for some news." Chishiqu was also in the corner of the bonfire, flattering everyone, "Xinqu is the leader of the trip, so he brought half of their clan's shell coins, almost three thousand."

"Three thousand?!"
