205, Dodo
"Dodo!!"
Zhao Yunxiang subconsciously blurted out, "It's actually a dodo!"
That's right, this big, fat bird looks a bit bulky, and it's the same dodo, which became extinct hundreds of years ago.
Come to think of it, it's a hodgepodge of prehistoric dinosaurs, not to mention the modern species dodo.
This big bird is stupid, it can't fly, and this guy is very curious, tilting his head to look at the group of wild people who are squatting on the ground and playing in the mud.
Zhao Yunxiang would not give up this great opportunity, he casually walked towards the dodo, who was retreating step by step with his progress.
Perhaps beyond the safe distance of the dodo's cognition, the stunned-looking bird turned around and ran away.
"Dudu~~!Dudu~~!"
The call of the dodo is so capricious, and its name is taken from the sound.
The dodo ran frantically, the silly bird flapping its degraded wings, and stumbling, its huge belly rubbing against the sand a dozen times.
Eventually, the dodo disappeared into a tuft of weeds.
Zhao Yunxiang did not intend to give up, but continued to walk towards the grass, which is a paradise for all kinds of small creatures, and here, Zhao Yunxiang once again found an enlarged version of the insect.
For example, a tick the size of a fingernail is covered with this armor, similar to a grasshopper bug, this guy's bounce is very strong, and he can jump out as much as 5 meters in one jump.
These bugs were not enough to threaten Zhao Yunxiang, after all, he was wearing shoes.
Soon, Zhao Yunxiang found the dodo, which was sitting on an elaborate nest with six huge eggs.
"Not running?" Zhao Yunxiang squatted down and looked at the bird with dull eyes and a little stunned.
"No wonder you're exterminated, it's just that you're too dull. Zhao Yunxiang grabbed the degraded wings of the dodo, and then brought the bird's nest back to the tribe together.
It's not bad to have nothing to do and raise poultry.
The dodo is definitely a big business opportunity!
"If you can bring the dodo back to its original world, you might be able to make a fortune. Zhao Yunxiang looked at the genuine dodo in his hand, "After all, a dodo skeleton was auctioned off for millions of dollars." ”
Of course, it would be more valuable if the dinosaurs were brought back to the modern world, but Zhao Yunxiang did not dare to do so, as we all know, dinosaurs have been extinct for billions of years, and the dodo is only a few hundred years old.
Species that have been extinct for billions of years will be more acceptable if they occur at the same time as species that have been extinct for hundreds of years.
The dodo was eventually kept in captivity, and several savages joined forces to build a rudimentary thatched house, and then made a fence out of sticks, and the stunned bird was thrown into it.
"Boss, where did you find the dodo?" Xiao Qiang's arms were full of dried mud, and to Zhao Yunxiang's surprise, this thing actually knew about the dodo.
"How do you know it's a dodo?" Zhao Yunxiang asked. Butterfly
"We eat it a lot, this bird is easy to catch, but because we catch it too often, there are a lot fewer dodos nearby, and this is a very rare food. Xiaoqiang said.
"Well, actually, I want to practice animal husbandry. Zhao Yunxiang said in detail, "Humanity needs to progress, first of all, there must be sufficient food sources, captive poultry and livestock, so that they can breed and meet the daily food needs, so as to achieve a state of self-sufficiency." ”
"Oh......" Xiaoqiang carefully figured out what Zhao Yunxiang said, and then nodded ignorantly, "Big guy, what you said makes so much sense~!"
"Of course, agriculture also has to be developed, which is a necessity for food sources. Zhao Yunxiang continued, "With the stable replenishment of grain and meat, we can have time and energy to develop industry!"
Speaking of the history of the development of human industry, it can be traced back to the Hemudu culture 7,000 years ago, and archaeologists have found pottery in the Hemudu cultural site.
Pottery was the first man-made material in human history and the beginning of the humanistic industry.
To say that the fastest industrial development is that in the past 300 years in modern times, all kinds of industrial ghosts have been born, (as for which ghosts, don't say it, don't say it, don't say it's troublesome to check the information, and I'm afraid of being blocked)
The wait is always long!
After a few hours, the kiln kept burning, and the overall color had basically turned gray-red, and the water in the clay had completely evaporated.
When the soil is roasted by fire, it becomes very hard, which is the process of crystallization, and the outside of the kiln is far from the conditions for the formation of pottery.
After all, a piece of pottery has to go through 5 disappearances and burn, and the temperature must be above 730 degrees.
"Boss, that kiln is really hot. Xiao Qiang added a little firewood to the kiln, and he was sweating in just a dozen seconds, and he was drinking water.
Today's clean water is very pure, because a lot of charcoal is added to the water purifier, and the water dug out of the soil is much cleaner than the water on the ground, after all, it is filtered by most layers of sediment, and it is difficult for bacteria to survive in confined spaces.
"Well, in the future, not only can you fire bronzes here, but you can also extract the salt from the soil and make salt. "Zhao Yunxiang has a plan, he plans to build a blacksmith shed here.
It takes a lot of manpower to build, which takes time, Zhao Yunxiang doesn't know how to return to modern society, in fact, he is a little resistant to going back, because that world is not as cool as here!
You can eat dinosaur meat, and there is a 6-meter-tall giant beast as a pet, and you can also be admired and worshiped by thousands of people, just like being a civilian emperor here.
Of course, as long as there is time, he is sure that in the future, even the emperor will envy him.
"What is salt?" asked Xiaoqiang again, "Is it useful?"
"Of course, without salt intake, you will have no strength, and it will be life-threatening over time. Zhao Yunxiang explained, but most modern people consume too much salt.
"We've never eaten salt...... Will there be any problems?" Xiao Qiang was a little flustered when he heard that he would die if he didn't eat salt, but then he thought about it, don't say that he hasn't eaten it, the whole tribe hasn't eaten it, isn't it better to live a good life?
"You drink blood a lot, and you don't wash the flesh of your prey, because it contains salt and a lot of iron, so you are eating salt at every meal. Zhao Yunxiang said with a wink.
"I see...... Xiao Qiang nodded and said, "I have grown knowledge." ”
"Alright, it's almost time now, stop adding firewood, and I'll see how the pottery goes. ”
Under Zhao Yunxiang's order, the kiln gradually lost its temperature, and after dozens of minutes, the kiln was opened.
"It's time to prove your true strength!" Zhao Yunxiang said worriedly, "I hope I don't fail to fire." ”
