After the fugitive slaves brought Ugu, the next day, Wuyun sent someone to escort them to Yancun.

Since the beacon tower, the practice of the two settlements has become much easier, whether it is midway supply or early warning, it has greatly met the needs of the tribe.

Now only three soldiers are stationed in each beacon tower, and the food and accommodation are all in this earthen fort, and the materials stored in it are enough for three people to eat for half a month.

The soldiers sent by Linhe, after resting for the night at the second beacon tower, arrived at Yancun at noon the next day.

After Wang Lang, who was fishing, received the news, he hurriedly handed over the matter at hand to others to deal with, and hurriedly returned to the tribe with two or three soldiers guarding him.

Seeing these two somewhat unfamiliar soldiers, guessing that they should be the fugitives from the last time, Wang Lang looked at them and frowned, and asked, "What are you doing here this time?" ”

One of the soldiers replied with some restraint, "Chief, a few slaves escaped from the Fire Tribe a few days ago, and they have now been accepted into the tribe by General Strongtooth like us. ”

When Wang Lang heard this, he couldn't help but smile and said to a few henchmen beside him: "It seems that that wing is very good!" ”

"I didn't expect that guy to be of some use, leaving him alive, it seems right." Lin Huo also smiled and said.

Unlike Lin Huo, Bark was thinking about this matter, and after Wang Lang finished speaking, Bark stared at these soldiers with bright eyes, and asked excitedly: "What about those slaves who escaped, why didn't they bring them together." ”

The soldier replied, "We don't know about this, it seems that General Jianya felt that there was a shortage of manpower over there, so they let them stay there." ”

Bark frowned, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Then how many of these fugitive slaves, how many men and how many women, you should be able to count them now!" ”

Hearing this, the soldier nodded, and after thinking for a while, he said: "I haven't counted the specifics, about fourteen or fifteen people, the number of men and women is about the same." ”

"Fourteen or fifteen people, that means there are seven or eight women, this guy Jianya really doesn't forget to take advantage of himself." Bark sneered.

These soldiers did not dare to pick up the bark, so they could only stand there with some embarrassment.

"I said bark, what do you mean by that?" Kong Yi asked.

Barkbark said with a smile: "What do you mean? The people who can escape from the Fire Tribe must be adults, seven or eight women who can have children, and Jianya actually left them without saying a word, what do you mean by that. ”

Hearing this, Kong Yi also reacted, glared at him and said angrily: "What a strong tooth, he is not satisfied with so many women on his side, and he still does this kind of thing, there are only a few people on the other side of the river, and those women sent over are not enough for them?" ”

After speaking, Kong Yi glared at these soldiers, pointed at one of them and said, "You! Assigned to the woman did not. ”

The unlucky soldier who was pointed at by Kong Yi looked at the angry Kong Yi and didn't know how to answer, so he could only nod.

Kong Yi snorted coldly, gave a military salute to Wang Lang, and said angrily: "Chief, there are only a few soldiers over there, there will be more soldiers on our side in the future, and there will be so many women in the tribe, how can we divide them, we must call Jianya over and ask." ”

Wang Lang suddenly felt that this topic seemed to be deviated by these guys who were thinking with their lower bodies, frowned, and said: "This matter is like this, since Jianya wants to keep those people, then stay, but in the future, if any more women escape, just send some to us, you guys, when you go back, tell them my words to the dark clouds." ”

Wang Lang's words rescued these soldiers from the embarrassing atmosphere, and nodded busily, Kong Yi and Bark were very ashamed of the practice of Jianya, although they were dissatisfied, but since the leader had spoken, he was arguing again, and he was willing to be driven out to run a few laps again.

"Are you here to tell me about this?" Wang Lang asked.

The soldier almost forgot the main purpose of this time after the bark of the tree just now, Wang Lang asked, several soldiers immediately reacted, and the soldier standing at the front quickly untied the animal skin bag on his waist and handed it to Wang Lang, saying: "The slaves who escaped this time brought a few Wugu from the Fire Tribe. ”

Hearing this, Wang Lang immediately came to his senses, and hurriedly opened the bag, and sure enough, he saw that there were three fist-sized things inside, this thing was too familiar to him, if no one in the other world knew this thing, Wang Lang would definitely doubt whether he was a fool.

"Isn't this TM a potato? Holy shit, there's such a good thing over there. Wang Lang was a little carried away with excitement, and even said Mandarin that he hadn't used for a long time.

"What are you talking about, Lang?" Lin Huo listened to Wang Lang say a bunch of strange words, and asked in surprise.

"Oh! It's nothing, you see it's a good thing! Wang Lang smiled and poured out the three potatoes in the bag.

Looking at the three gray things on the ground, Lin Huo and the others couldn't see that this thing was good, and couldn't help asking, "Lang, what's the use of this thing?" ”

"This is food, if you plant it, one can feed a person, isn't that a good thing?" Wang Lang said with a smile.

"What you said is true?" Lin Huo was taken aback, his eyes widened, and he looked at these inconspicuous potatoes in disbelief.

Wang Lang ignored the stunned people, and said to the soldiers: "You should have escaped from the Fall of the Flames, you should be familiar with this thing." ”

A soldier replied respectfully: "Leader, a few of us used to be slaves of the Fire Tribe, and what we do every day is to grow these Ugu, but this thing is not as good as you say, one can only grow such an Ugu, and it can't be eaten by one person." ”

Hearing this answer, Wang Lang was a little surprised, in his memory, the yield of potatoes is very high, he has read about this information before, some people analyze that the reason why the Manchu Qing Dynasty, a foreign regime, can last for so long without perishing, potatoes or sweet potatoes account for a large factor, this high-yield crop feeds hundreds of millions of people, the so-called Kangqian prosperous era, it is not an exaggeration to call it the potato prosperous era.

It is conceivable how amazing the yield of this crop is, but now he actually heard that a potato plant can only grow one, as if he heard a joke, he carefully looked at the three oval objects on the ground, and once again confirmed that he was indeed not dazzled, this thing is 100% a potato Undoubtedly, but this yield made Wang Lang couldn't help but wonder.

Although Wang Lang was a little disappointed with this low-yield primitive potato, but Lin Huo they were ecstatic, one plant grew such a ugu, which was much higher than the yield of corn, although there was only one, but it couldn't stand the size of this thing, if the tribe planted as many ugu as corn, then the problem of food was a fart at all.
