137 Forest Economy

When this Ma Jie saw these bison, wild horses and wild sheep, his eyes lit up, he really didn't expect that such a small tribe of about 300 people would not only grow their own unique crops, but also domesticate wild cattle and sheep.

There are now more than 20 people watching here, a few of the leaders are Toulon herdsmen, and the rest are natives sent by Xiao Feng to learn from experience, among them the natives named Nightingale, who domesticated two wild wolves, as well as the offspring of these wild wolves, and played a very important role in the process of taking care of these bison and wild horses.

"My lord, these bison, wild horses and wild sheep are a great fortune!"

Having figured out that he was going to live under the leadership of this adult in the future, this Marcus naturally wanted to work hard at this time to try to make a good impression in the eyes of this adult.

"Oh, how did your tribe domesticate these wild creatures before, and what did they do with them after domestication?"

"It's very simple, just make sure they have enough food, these wild creatures are really wild at the beginning, but as long as you starve them a few times, and when they are too hungry, give them some simple training in food, and it's okay for a long time. ”

Ma Jies's answer made Xiao Feng very satisfied, it is indeed the most primitive way to domesticate wild cattle and horses, food control, and then form a conditioned reflex, after a long time, these wild creatures are used to living with humans.

"As for domesticated and mature wild horses, we will choose the ones with good pedigree and continue to improve, and then come up with the best horses, and then sell these horses to the people of the Cartwheel Empire. As for cows, it is even better, milk can be made into dairy products, bulls can be killed for meat, or sold to other tribes and humans, wild sheep can take their hair and make felt... ”

I even know that the production of dairy products, the production of felt, and the improvement of horse breeds know that this black elf is really too good, that is, the force has not yet developed.

If they are allowed to develop in terms of force, this population may be able to rule the entire continent, so to speak, the Toulon Empire, and the Cartryan Empire, it seems that they do not know much about agriculture and animal husbandry.

This Ma Jie Si is just a simple display of some knowledge, Xiao Feng feels like he has picked up a treasure, this is definitely an all-round compound talent.

"So you're talking about how you raise these cows and horses for the winter?"

"Well, my lord, it seems that you need to build a few horses, cowsheds and sheepfolds here, and then before the winter, you have to organize people to go out to gather grass and stock up on forage, when the reserves are sufficient. This can ensure that these livestock survive the winter. When spring begins, it's time to milk the cows and make dairy products, and you can also shear the sheep... ”

Just because this guy simply said a few things, Xiao Feng knew that this was definitely a real expert in animal husbandry, even if he had chewed so many books on animal husbandry in modern times, but in terms of practical operation, I am afraid that this guy did not know much.

"Very well, Marcus seems that you know a lot about animal husbandry. I don't know how to dove and domesticate here, so I'll give you the domestication of these bison, wild horses, and wild sheep, and you have to build a shelter for these livestock to spend the winter in before winter, and you have to make a good feed stockpile, how about you?"

Xiao Feng looked at the black elf and asked, and this guy actually blushed with excitement, after all, he could be entrusted with a heavy task by this adult when he first arrived, how could he not be happy?

"Don't worry, sir, you leave this job to me, and I will make it beautiful for you. Our tribe has been doing this work for decades, even hundreds of years, and we are really very experienced in this area. ”

Ma Jie Si is full of confidence in these old jobs, and Xiao Feng also patted him on the shoulder: "Well, I can trust you, so I will give you these jobs, I hope you don't let me down." ”

Ma Jie nodded vigorously, this adult trusts himself so much, this time he must do the things that the adult has explained beautifully, which means that their black elves will be able to gain a firm foothold in this tribe in the future.

In the past, although they lived a rich life, they have always been flawed in terms of force, and they are often bullied by their neighbors, and even some natives and dwarves, and even elven tribes have come back to blackmail them, so that they have always been very angry, and their lives are insecure, even if they are rich, they are just fish and meat on other people's boards.

Now it's different in this adult's tribe, Bloom has told him before, as long as you are willing to work hard here, you can get the approval of adults, then no matter what race you are, what kind of background, you can be treated fairly and justly by adults.

In such a chaotic world, it is more important than anything else to have such a fair and safe living environment.

Xiao Feng still didn't let Ma Jis go, he wanted to understand this guy thoroughly, he felt that this guy's skills were far more than that, if his potential was all discovered, this guy would definitely be able to play the role of a minister of agriculture.

Xiao Feng took Ma Jie up the mountain again, this mountain can be said to be a treasure countless, in addition to those tall and towering trees, there are many other economic tree species, the varieties of these trees, Xiao Feng does not know very well, their fruits, Xiao Feng does not know if they can eat it, but he has seen that the natives sometimes pick some wild fruits to eat.

Marcus said before that they were very knowledgeable about fruit trees, and they also domesticated some fruit trees and planted them themselves, and when they couldn't eat all the fruit they picked up, they used it to make fruit wine, and it is said that their fruit wine was very good.

Xiao Feng is very interested in these things, you must know that the mountain and forest economy is also a very good source of money, if done well, it can bring income that is not inferior to that brought by agricultural farming.

In particular, Xiao Feng also wants to bring some ginseng fruits to plant, the soil in this world is too fertile, Xiao Feng wants to know what the ginseng grown here will be like, and what is the medicinal effect?

You must know that in his world, ginseng was a very valuable crop.

Jacks followed Xiao Feng and them to the forest, and soon found several fruit trees that he was familiar with, a fruit tree similar to the apple tree on the earth, and the fruit was similar to apples.

Ma Jie called this fruit Hongyang fruit, because this fruit is red in color and born to the sun, he also picked a few for Xiao Feng to eat, Xiao Feng took a bite, the taste was crispy, sweet and juicy, really very delicious.
