Chapter 106: Harvest of Soil and Wheat
"Elders, this is the result of the research and development in my laboratory in the recent past. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Walking in front of the crowd, dressed in a cotton robe, dressed solemnly and elegantly, the straight of the Duge Station. Explain to the elders who are looking left and right behind him.
In the circular area of the planting area, the soil wheat is ripe. Fade away the immature green stone and put on a layer of gold. In the bright morning light, the plump grains of full ears of wheat bowed their heads, swaying in the morning breeze, setting off waves of gold, dazzling people's eyes.
"The cultivation technology has always been in the hands of humans, and they will not reveal it to us orcs at all. And the herbivorous races such as the Minotaur and the sheep tribe, although they have mastered inferior planting techniques, their poor planting yields are also tightening their belts to get by, and they are also struggling with food and clothing. Compared to the high yield of humans, it is really a bit worse. ”
Du Ge walked to the wheat field, broke off a few bundles of wheat ears, and handed them to an elder behind him.
"For this reason, I have been researching how to plant wheat fields with a high harvest like humans. And that's what I've done. ”
The ears of wheat were passed back and forth, and the noisy chatter of amazement and appreciation continued, after all the elders had seen it. Du Ge coughed twice to attract everyone's attention, and continued:
"I'm going to do the math for you. This field is about 1 acre and is expected to produce 500 kilograms of soil wheat. Our fox tribe has a small amount of food, even if it is calculated according to participating in heavy physical labor, a person only consumes 300 kilograms of grain a year, a person's labor force, conservatively calculated can plant 5 acres, and the soil wheat can be harvested twice a year, after throwing away natural disasters and man-made disasters. One person farming can support 16 people. ”
After Duge's account was settled, the sound of gasping in the field kept sounding. Everyone looked at him excitedly, a little unable to believe his words.
What is the concept of 1 person working to support 16 people? That is to say, the fox clan only needs 6% of the people to work, and it can feed the food consumption of the whole clan!
Today's fox tribe, more than half of the manpower and material resources are used to produce food. Hunting, gathering, animal husbandry, fishing, but even if more than half of the people input, the food produced is not enough to provide the tribe to consume, and every year from the lion tribe, a part of the grain must be imported, so as to survive the grinding winter.
And now, Du Ge told them that with one-tenth of the original manpower, the tribe could be fed, how could this not shock them?
Looking at this group of primitive people, Du Ge couldn't help but smile and continued to throw bombs.
"And that's a conservative estimate. Our laboratory is still improving the soil wheat, and the yield will gradually increase. And under our feet, this fertile black soil, with excellent soil quality, can further increase the yield. Cut continuous farming for several years without fallowing. ”
At this time, the angry Elder Firefox couldn't hold back any longer, rushed up excitedly, grabbed Du Ge's shoulders and shook them vigorously, and asked loudly:
"Are you telling the truth? Really?!!
Someone took the lead, and the other elders didn't care about any etiquette, and hula surrounded them.
"You kid are bragging, right?is the yield so high?" "If that's the case, we Snow Fox fully support it!" "If you really want what you say, the old lady will obey you!" ......
"Really, really, let me go!"
After a long struggle, Du Ge broke free and the elders who were about to go crazy patted the non-existent dust on their clothes and said, "This wheat field has not been confiscated yet, and you will see the yield after the harvest." Tomorrow at the elders' meeting, I will go with the harvest of this field, and then we will discuss this matter in detail. ”
"Okay, if you kid lie to us, we will definitely not spare you!" That's it!" "It's really as high as you say, and our Golden Fox family supports it......!"
After another quarrel, the elders calmed down their excitement and returned to the tribe first. After preparing for the harvest tomorrow, the matter will be formally discussed at the elders' meeting.
Watari beckoned to the men and began to harvest the wheat fields.
But before he could leave, he was grabbed by the queen.
On the formal occasion just now, the queen did not squeeze in at the ceremony. Now that the elders are gone, she doesn't have to care about etiquette. pulled the transition song, first pinched him twice, and after venting some excitement, he asked in a trembling voice: "Xiaoduge, you won't lie to everyone again, right?"
"Yes, don't you see? ”
For the queen's various 'inhumane' tofu eating, Du Ge has become accustomed to it, and after understanding that resistance is useless. He didn't resist, like a puppet, and let the queen ravage him. It's just that the queen's hand is not honest and when she touches the place where she shouldn't touch, Duge resists and pulls her hand away.
With a bang~, after imprinting a red lip mark on Du Ge's little face, the queen said excitedly:
"Xiao Duge come over tonight, I want to give you a reward!"
"No, I don't want a reward. ”
Faced with the queen's warm invitation, Duge decisively refused, he remembered the night a few days ago. "Just kidding! Is that a reward or a punishment?" You can't eat it just by looking at it, but it's very painful! How can you say that Duge also grew up under the influence of civilization, and some festivals still have to be guarded.
It took a lot of effort for Duge to persuade the queen who was sticking to people to take people's lives.
Then he turned his attention to the wheat harvest.
Under the command of Du Ge, the planters of the laboratory waved their sickles from all directions and headed towards the center to harvest. After harvesting and molting, soybean-sized grains are slowly piled up to form a small mound.
All the people involved in the harvest were excited, and the feeling of the plump wheat grains in their hands was so real, which made them extremely excited, who had been suffering from lack of food.
The sack made of bark fibers was filled with 5 bags of hemp before all the wheat was packed.
When night fell, Du Ge used the soil wheat harvested today to make a pot of fragrant soil wheat porridge for everyone, and added some wild vegetables to make dinner.
Munching on the delicious soil wheat, everyone in the laboratory was excited. Until the moment the food enters their mouths, they understand that the efforts of this time have reaped the most perfect fruits. The success of planting is a sign of a prosperous life in the future.
Food will no longer be the biggest problem plaguing the fox clan. The new chapter in the history of the fox clan was quietly opened in their hands.
The crowd came from all directions to come up, throwing the song high and cheering his name.
Du Ge smiled, quietly accepting the cheers and love of the crowd.
At the door of the drug laboratory in the distance, Xin Meng stood there quietly with his head bowed.
In her hand, in a delicately crafted clay bowl with a pattern, the pale yellow clay wheat porridge exudes an attractive aroma. Gently stirring it with a clay spoon and sending it into his mouth, Xin Meng narrowed his eyes in enjoyment. Dishes, Tumai, looking at these things that shouldn't appear in the fox clan, Xin Meng felt a little foggy, as if he was dreaming. She looked up at the cheering crowd, abandoned by the song. It was all brought about by that person.
Xin Meng suddenly smiled brightly, but the corners of his eyes were already moist, and he said to himself in a faint voice:
"Mother, your sacrifice...... It's worth it. ”
