Chapter 154: Nature's Porter
Su Yang is really happy, with the flock, it will make up for the shortcomings of the new tribe, and he can graze in the future.
He feels that neither farming nor planting is comparable to hunting and gathering in terms of cycle, and the simple point is that the pay is not proportional to the return. One is to rely on one's own labor, through long-term efforts to achieve a harvest, the other is to ask from nature, rely on the sky for food, maybe you can have a bumper harvest.
However, in the long run, the tribe can only develop if there is surplus food, and the tribe has a large population, and there will be more surplus labor, so it is necessary to breed and plant.
The team cheered to the Xia tribe, originally at this time should have eaten meat to enjoy the joy, but from this moment on, Su Yang had to consider the overall situation, and the food had to be saved.
And the most important point, if these antelopes are moved now, then whose harvest will be won't be distributed at that time. But after the merger, they are all one tribe, so there is no need to divide each other, your sheep is my sheep, and everyone is happy together.
"Matsu, let's talk about the migration first." It's getting late, and it's almost time to head off if you're heading back to the rocks.
Su Yang looked at the group of sheep with his eyes as he spoke, and the old man instantly understood, and said as soon as he opened his mouth: "Xiao Xia, you will be the elder of the bear tribe in the future." ”
The matter of translation was handed over to Su Yang, it was not practical, Matsu took off the horn ornament on his head on the spot and put it on Xiao Xia, although it was much bigger, but this was a gesture and a declaration of identity.
"Have you all seen it, Xiao Xia has become an elder, and in the future, your Xia tribe will be merged into the new tribe and there will be bears."
Immediately, he began to do persuasion work, with Xiao Xia's help, Xia Bu was also willing to follow, there were twenty or so adult savages who were also accustomed to tribal life, the overall situation had been decided, and after half an hour, the matter was finalized, and he immediately packed his things and set off.
The savages will definitely not lose when they go out, they will be directly raised to a higher level of civilization and live a life of salt and taste, plus he is not a cool person, today he took the wild people's sheep and gold, and he will return a row of villas in the day, well, not to mention the rotten land.
"We're here to help, too, the merchant girl." As he spoke, he went straight to the dog's head gold, he was just a porter of nature.
Compared with the tribes outside, the wild people seem to be free and easy, there are a lot of stone tools that have not been taken away, the forage does not care at all, only the use of wearing, if it is not for so many sheep, it is definitely light on the road.
"Let's go." This swept away the wildling tribe, and on the way back they picked up salt water and made it to the rocks before dark. It is a good busy work, but fortunately, the savages live in groups, and there are two caves where they can live, and they are also very easy to feed.
The hunting team here also had a harvest, hunting a half-sized cow, which is said to be a normal performance, and it can even be said that it is extremely lucky, but if it only relies on one cow, it will not be able to persevere.
It is necessary to open up sources and reduce expenditure, and because of the weather, meat needs to be processed, otherwise the spoilage will outweigh the losses.
After working all day, he only ate some dry food, and his stomach was already hungry, so he quickly peeled the sheep and slaughtered the cow and stewed it in a pot.
Today he burned a batch of clay pots, which came in handy, and according to the ratio he had set before, he distributed the pottery to the savages, and then he divided the meat.
There was no time enough to make a pot of thick soup, so he teamed up with the merchant girl and Xiao Xia, baked and boiled everything, and went to sleep after filling his stomach.
As for the werewolf behaving a little strangely, after the wild man came, the werewolf seemed to have a greater sense of belonging, and even took the initiative to play with the wild people, maybe he thought it was the same kind of person.
The next day, the warriors went out to hunt again, and they could also cook salt again, Su Yang did not follow, but took the savages to visit the rocks, focusing on the wooden houses and earthen wall houses, introducing the situation of the new tribe, remembering the past together, and looking forward to the future.
Then there is the fact that we continue to count the materials and handle the meat, the climate is warmer, and the fresh meat will smell after two days, and in the process of migration, there is not so much time to stop and cook slowly.
In this case, he will be a chef today, first of all, an antelope, a sheep weighing more than 100 catties without bones, fur, internal organs, and pure meat that can be obtained, at most more than 20 catties. Of course, the offal of sheep and even the sheepskin can be eaten, and the bones can be stewed in soup.
He had the mutton cut into lumps, and it didn't matter how big or small, as long as the clay pot could hold it, the meat was cooked first. For the internal organs, what heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys, all thrown away to feed the dogs, because it is not delicious, only the sheep intestines and sheep tripe are very good, and they are cooked separately after processing.
He didn't move the sheepskin, because the sheepskin tasted really speechless, but all the sheep's fat was gathered, and there was still a sheep's head left, which was very good to roast and eat.
Next is the cow, the cow dirty he left only the tripe, that is, the stomach of the cow, because the cow is ruminant, has three stomachs, commonly known as hairy belly, a little scalded in boiling water can be eaten, boiled for a little more will become very old, bite.
The beef was also cooked, and he kept the plum blossom meat of the cow privately, as well as the beef tenderloin, which can be used to grill pork belly or fry a steak or something, a petty bourgeoisie.
The soup stewed with beef is different in color and taste from mutton, and few people can stew beef soup well, but now there is no way to pursue the taste, just pay attention to nutrition.
The bones of the cow and the sheep were also stewed together, and the big bones were broken and put into the clay pot as much as possible, and the bone marrow inside was also a good thing.
This will, the merchant girl is boiling oil with Xiao Xia, mutton fat is different from lard, it can only be eaten when it is hot, and it will be very tiresome once it is cooled.
Everyone was attracted by the smell of meat, but they knew that it was eaten on the migration route, and now they can't move, only smell the fragrance in the air and continue to work.
When the mutton was cooked, he took it out and drained it in a bamboo basket, leaving the soup alone and leaving it there.
The mutton fat here was almost boiled, as well as yesterday's lard, and butter mixed together and boiled, respectively, in several clay pots, kept on a low fire, at this time he put the boiled mutton into the oil pot and fried it, and then used bamboo to clip it out and put it in another clay pot.
This process is repeated all the time, except for some pieces of meat with relatively large bones, which are fried and then packed in dozens of clay pots.
The most important process came, he put all the remaining salt into the oil, which was mixed with mutton fat lard butter butter, which was quite stimulating to the taste buds. He poured oil into the clay pots containing the meat, making sure that each pot had oil and salt.
In this way, with the current weather, it is not a problem for these mutton to be stored for half a month, and if the meat can be submerged in oil and water, it will not deteriorate if it is stored for more than half a year. It's just like the fact that boiled fat can be stored for a long time, commonly known as oil cellar meat! (To be continued.) )
