Chapter 227: Pioneering
As the saying goes, tomorrow will be better, but before tomorrow, don't think about it that good.
What to eat for the next meal is a very serious question, and there is no room for sloppiness at all.
In the past ten days, although my mind has been on wheat, I have actually spent more time on obtaining food.
They have gone from hunting in the morning to around 3 p.m., and the trend is growing.
As everyone stays here, they continue to consume the animals in this place, and before other animals pour in, the place will become more and more empty.
They had to continue to expand their search in search of more food.
This is the damn safari life, you have to think about the next meal every day, you can't stay in the same place all the time, Wang Yang is really tired of it.
They have been living a similar life since they were born, except that they were in the forest at that time, constantly expanding outward to fight for territory, and it seems that they have not moved, but in fact, the scope of hunting is still expanding.
Why do you want to expand your territory? Nonsense, if you eat empty, you have to expand the territory. It's like those poor birds, the first year they took a lot of eggs, and the second year they were gone.
An unstable life is not a solution after all, and people have to settle down sooner or later.
Now my situation is back to the state of the forest, and everything is in the embryonic stage.
It's just that at that time, the harvest cycle was very long, and he planted fruit trees, which had to grow for two or three years, and now he planted wheat, which was enough for a year.
He silently said to himself: "Stay up for another year!" Oh, it's been a year! ”
This time, I really decided to live here for a long time, and the ice age did not affect it. There are no natural predators, and there is no excuse not to stay here.
All he needs to do is find the damn food. Clearing the barren land and planting wheat.
He gathered all the people together. Prepare for a division of labor.
This could be done at the same time, and he drew a picture of the ground uprooting the miscanthus to reveal a large area of land, and then pointed to the osteologist and the little ones.
They have to harvest miscanthus grass every day to prepare dry fodder, which happens to be directly uprooted, killing two birds with one stone.
As for the adults, they spend all their time hunting, if they encounter wheat along the way. I took it.
It is not difficult for everyone to do these two things, and they can also understand Wang Yang's intentions very well.
Wang Yang squinted his eyes, looked at this grassland, and thought about the effective environmental and climatic characteristics of his previous life.
The most incredible definition of this place is the savannah climate.
There are no four seasons here, only the dry season and the rainy season, when the rainy season comes, the rain is particularly abundant, and the dry season does not see the slightest rain.
Wang Yang didn't care about this thing, whether it was the dry season or the rainy season, it had nothing to do with him.
He was surprised. You're in the tropics? Arrived in the tropics without warning.
More than two years of migration, one of which stopped in various places for a period of time, and the actual journey time was less than two years.
He didn't know if it was a fast migration or a slow migration. But on the way, the temperate characteristics that should have been there were not seen by themselves.
Before crossing the desert. He had thought it was a cold desert, but after passing through it, he was in the temperate zone. But he found out he was wrong.
As a result of the ice age, the climatic characteristics of the world have been significantly extremed. Hot places are still so hot, it doesn't affect much.
The cold places are even colder, and the temperate zone is compressed by the relentless madness.
Maybe the desert is in a temperate position, but it happens to be in the desert, not in the temperate primeval forest or grassland.
Thinking of this, he finally felt a little relieved, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, the climate here was not messed up, otherwise the geographical knowledge he learned would be useless.
The next day, everyone did what they said, and the response was called a swift, and the little friends were crazy about weeding, and the land here tended to be yellow mud, which was not fertile, but it was very soft, and it was not too difficult to pull it out.
They first pulled out a clearing where they lived, and then continued to expand outward, pulling out the land in all directions.
Wang Yang also let them play freely, and at this time, he also paid attention to fart planning, and he would do it first.
And he himself went on a frenzied hunt with the crowd.
The fertility of the pastures didn't attract more large animals, perhaps because the pastures were too big for them to come here, or because the small animals here were too hiding.
Yes, the small animals here are not ordinary people who can hide, and many animals have developed burrowing methods, and have the skill of making holes with one hand, hiding underground.
These are super-powerful means of adapting to the environment, and if they do not live underground, they can be easily spotted by predators with a strong sense of smell and then killed.
This is for what reason, Wang Yang and others can't use many means.
In the past, there were barrel traps to deal with small animals, but now it's good, the barrel is the one that Zhang San brought out, and it can't be of great use.
Even if there are a lot of them, it's useless, the ground here is soft, and those small animals have good skills in burrowing, and they can escape in three or two clicks.
At the end of the day, Wang Yang's team caught a black antelope.
This guy can really run, as soon as he moves, it is like lightning, this is not an exaggeration, it is really like lightning, and the smoke and dust on the ground have not yet risen and it has run a few meters away.
So there will be a very discordant scene, and when it is almost gone, you can see a faint yellow smoke flashing on the grass.
It's like watching a movie, where the subtitles go through several rows before the sound comes out, forcing you to go crazy.
Wang Yang and the others shot a few arrows at it with a spear thrower, and then used a slingling to see if they could be lucky enough to smash its head or smash its leg joints.
As a result, I was stunned and let it run out of smoke, and after chasing it for a long time, I found it lying on the side and seriously injured.
As you can imagine, it would be difficult to catch it without a ranged attack.
Others didn't get much of a harvest, some dug up unknown plants, and some simply went empty-handed.
These harvested food alone are obviously not enough, but fortunately there is a river from which the main food comes from.
Time flashed again, and a month passed.
In a month's time, the land opened up by the crowd reached 30 acres of land, about 20,000 square meters.
It's hard to imagine that this was created by a group of children of a few years old with a few adults, an average of one acre of land a day.
It could have been faster, but sometimes it wasn't just the bearded miscanthus that was pulled, but also the thorns.
Thirty acres of land is almost the size of three football fields, and with a field, it is time to reclaim and sow seeds.
Wang Yang narrowed his eyes and smiled slightly. Two cows in one acre of land, wife and children hot kang head, now the first step is overdone. (To be continued......)
