let go of that priestess

"Oh, what 100 times, that's just an exaggeration.

How delicious the food is, how can it be described in specific multiples...... Ugh. "

Ji Cheng paused suddenly as he spoke, looked at Jiang Hongdou, and suddenly realized something.

"Wait? 100 times? You seem to understand multiples?

Well, having said that, before I got used to it casually, you also understood the 80 times work efficiency I subconsciously said, which is equivalent to 80 you working together.

Hmm....do you really understand this? "

"Understood, what's wrong?"

Jiang Hongdou said dissatisfied: "While you praise me for being smart, you think I'm stupid at the same time? I used to count every hunting income in the clan.

For those big prey and small prey, how much each person gets and how much they get in total is more troublesome than this. "

"..." Ji Cheng was silent for a while, didn't answer the words, threw her a branch, and raised his eyebrows: "Write down 1 to 10."

"Hmph, look down on me." Jiang Hongdou snorted, took the branch, and quickly wrote the numbers on the ground.

Ji Cheng looked at the corner of his eyes and twitched.

Arabic numerals.......

"Again, write another thousand and eleven."

"Cut..." ginger red bean writing: 1011

Decimal....

Hiss, something is wrong!

Ji Cheng raised his head and stared at Jiang Hongdou's exquisite face for a long while.

It wasn't until the girl touched his face strangely, thinking that there was something on his face, that he said with a complicated expression:

"If I could, I would really like to meet your ancestors...

I have a feeling that even if this is another world with its own process, it's definitely not normal! "

"What are you talking about, meeting my ancestors?" Jiang Hongdou was puzzled.

Ji Cheng shook his head lightly: "Let me ask you, who did you learn your language and counting knowledge from?"

"The priest of the previous generation..."

"Who did the priests of the previous generation learn from?"

"The next generation." Jiang Hongdou blinked:

"This is the inheritance of knowledge. It is passed on to each generation of priests, and then the priests teach it to the tribe. Didn't I say that?"

"Well, I remember." Ji Cheng nodded: "But have you ever thought, if it's your model, who did the first generation of priests learn her/his knowledge from?"

"Hey..." Jiang Hongdou was stunned, and shook his head after a while:

"I don't know that. I only know that there will be more or less missing in the inheritance process. The first generation priest must be the most powerful person. It's not surprising to know this."

"so?......."

Ji Cheng frowned in thought, seeing that the soup in the pot had boiled, he withdrew his mind.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this, let's eat. After dinner, I will start working on the spinning wheel and loom."

"Oh."

Jiang Hongdou scooped up two bowls of soup and handed Ji Cheng a bowl. Ji Cheng turned the topic around and told him:

"Don't forget, we're going to get rock salt tomorrow!"

"I know...... I am also very concerned about salt, let's go after taking a shower tomorrow, and then have breakfast when we come back."

"Ah."

Jiang Hongdou paused, then said:

"Speaking of which, when we have salt, clothes made of hemp, and dwellings made of wood, will we enter civilization?"

"Not counting..."

Ji Cheng shook his head: "Five conditions are required to create a civilization.

Spoken language, written language, good number systems, the scientific method, and mass production.

The first three....... Guys, you already have it.

The fourth scientific method is here with me.

So if we want to enter civilization, we are still short of overproduction. "

"And what is overproduction?"

"It is to change the pattern of migration and settle down"

"Eh?" Jiang Hongdou blinked: "Isn't this also achieved? Haven't we settled down already?"

"It's not just talk, it's practical."

Ji Cheng said: "Its specific definition is: Individuals can stably and reliably produce more food than they need to survive, which is called excess.

That is, the development of agriculture, farming and breeding.

Grow some crops yourself, such as the fruits we ate before, or better staple crops.

For breeding, such as raising white birds, make a nest for them, keep them in captivity, and let them breed and lay eggs. "

"Huh? Like this?......"

"Don't worry." Ji Cheng glanced at the girl's hesitant expression and said:

"Any piece of arable land is equivalent to ten to a hundred times the income from hunting and gathering on the same area of ​​land.

This time, it's not an exaggeration. "

Chapter 24 How Do You Remember So Much Knowledge

Early in the morning, the two of them took a bath and set off directly from the river to the previous trial site of the Damu clan, where the rock salt was.

Pushing aside the branches covering the eyes, I heard a few sharp yo-yo sounds, like some kind of special alarm among creatures.

When Ji Cheng and Jiang Hongdou glanced away, they only caught a glimpse of a few shuttle-like shadows whizzing into the bushes and disappeared.

"Wow~ you are vigilant enough."

Ji Cheng smiled: "It's the first time we met, I haven't seen it clearly yet."

"It's a deer!"

Jiang Hongdou's eyes lit up, and he followed the swaying bushes all the way, and said quickly: "It's so rare! Are we going to hunt!?"

"Uh, without setting a trap in advance, the two of us hunted?"

Ji Cheng blinked: "You usually surround and hunt in several directions in the jungle, right?"

"Ah... yeah."

"So." Ji Cheng spread his hands, "Then what do you say?"

"I thought you must have some powerful skills to hunt..."

Jiang Hongdou stuck out her tongue, and looked back with some reluctance.

Ji Cheng shrugged: "It does have great skills, give me a Gatling Chug, and I can hunt it by standing here.

Or give me a 98K, and I can hunt it with a bang on the mountain bag with a wide view over there. "

"Wow!"

Jiang Hongdou was stunned for a moment, then her eyes sparkled: "Tudu and bang, what should I do?"

"Think too far..." Ji Cheng waved his hand: "But we will definitely make guns in the future."

"firearms?"

"Well, those two types I just mentioned, they are both thermal weapons."

Ji Cheng explained a little: "We use stone tools now, and we will develop iron tools in the future. These cold weapons that don't use heat to fight are called cold weapons.

So, as the name suggests, thermal weapons are weapons that use heat energy to fight~"

"Oh." Jiang Hongdou was thoughtful: "Friction produces heat?"

"Ah this..."

The corner of Ji Cheng's mouth twitched, he patted his head, and reluctantly explained: "You, you can understand it this way for now.

It doesn't matter whether it's friction or other methods, anyway, it's hot, it's hot, and it's unbearable, so it's fired, and the thing shot out is the specific manifestation of a thermal weapon attack. "

"?..."

Jiang Hongdou was taken aback when she heard the words, she glanced at Ji Cheng in a daze, and blushed when she thought of something:

"It turns out... that's how guns come from, um, I understand, hot weapons..."

"Eh?"

Understood?Did I speak clearly?

Ji Cheng was stunned, and faintly felt that he was not on the same channel as the girl.

But don't worry about it right now, there are more important things.

After talking a few words, they had pushed aside the branches and leaves and walked to the exposed rock salt.

Ji Cheng took out the stone ax placed in the pole frame, chiseled off a piece of rock salt, licked the cut, his eyes lit up.

"Okay~ It's super salty! Try it!"

"Yeah." Jiang Hongdou leaned over and licked his head, smacked his lips, and looked around: "How much should we take back?"

"Since you're here, bring some more."

Ji Cheng patted the frame, "It's all full."

"Would you like to save some for them?" Jiang Hongdou hesitated a little and said: "I remember you said when hunting white birds, even if you hunt, you must continue to hunt.

We dug rock salt, filled the box, there isn't much left here, right?In that way, the prey will not gather here in the future. "

"Well, the idea is good, but this kind of worry is unnecessary."

Ji Cheng was stunned for a moment, then raised his stone ax to dig, and said while chiseling:

"You just see that there is not much exposed on the surface, but in fact it is just a protruding salt dome.

We chose a place and kept digging down. There is a lot below, almost inexhaustible and inexhaustible. "

"Can't finish it?"

Jiang Hongdou was stunned for a moment, then blinked: "Is this another exaggeration?"

"Ah, let me make an analogy." Ji Cheng paused, raised his stone ax and pointed at the mountain range in the direction of the camp in the distance:

"If all the rock salt buried deep in the ground is dug out and piled up together, it will be at least similar to that mountain, a rock salt mountain."

"Ah!?...Really!?"

"Of course it's true. This is just my estimate. It might be less."

Ji Cheng pursed his lips and continued digging: "Just kidding, the formation of rock salt sealed up part of the ocean in the first place!"

"Oh......"

Looking at the mountains in the distance, Jiang Hongdou didn't hesitate anymore after being shocked.

Looking back, she picks up as much as Ji Cheng chisels into the frame.

......

At around 8:[-] in the morning, the two returned with a full load and started cooking a little later than usual.

Of course, the meal was salted.

Use a knife to shave salt cubes into the food a little bit, whether it is soup or meat, it is really delicious!
