Chapter 289: Expanding Resources

It is said that only males can't do it, and that females must be born to produce the next generation, but for shy does, they don't seem to be keen on pursuing male deer.

It's a frustration.

While Wang Yang was thinking of a way, he asked them to continue to catch deer, of course, he still relied on the strong attraction of the doe to successfully catch a few more deer.

After a few days, Wang Yang was a little dizzy, and the buck continued to catch, but the doe didn't see one, and I don't know where they ran to.

He dressed up the stag to make them more attractive.

For example, give them a bath, comb their hair smoothly and shinyly, and hang some delicious food on their antlers......

He used everything he could, but it didn't work.

He decided to improve his tools to see if he could have a better way of hunting.

But after thinking about it for a while, I laughed.

For them, they have already used the most advanced hunting tools of this era, and it is impossible to make other advanced things.

And the hunting tool he wants is not to kill the enemy at once, but to trap the enemy immediately, which is a bit difficult.

He put a lot of effort into targeting the little one, hoping that the little one's keen sense of smell would take him to the doe.

But the little guy is not a human after all, how can he understand what he means?

He really wanted to turn the little one's nose to his own use.

By the way, I heard that there are military dogs in the army, and there are some guide dogs, all of which have been trained.

But this is only heard. In reality, how do you train? If you have mastered the method of training. Can you try it on the little one?

You must know that the sense of smell of the mouse is unparalleled in the world, and it is extremely powerful. You can really train it, and you can find any animal you want.

He really did that, and he tossed the little guy for two days.

In the end, he finally figured it out, and there was no solution to this problem for the time being, and he couldn't train obedient mice, and he couldn't find a doe.

Neither from the perspective of the environment nor the means, it is not good for itself.

But Wang Yang didn't want to give up, he spoke: "Ahh I don't believe it, and when I catch all the stag nearby, I'm not afraid that you won't come! ”

He handed over this sacred and glorious mission to others with a solemn face, patted them on the shoulder, and said solemnly: "Do a good job, everyone is optimistic about you." ”

But he went to the deep mountains and old forests to look for vegetables, wild fruits, and metal mines.

In general, he prefers to look for places like mountain cliffs.

One can pass through the cliff face. Roughly determine what nature it belongs to, and what resources it has for a cliff with the same characteristics.

Secondly, it is also because it is easier to find some fruits and vegetables.

In this large primeval forest, the terrain is quite flat. At present, there is not much difference between the height and the mountain, the mountain is not high, and the ground is not steep.

Such an environment is ideal for tall trees to grow. Among them, there are many Wei Qiao tens of meters high, and more than 20 meters high Big Qiao.

Raise your head and look up. It's really covering the sky and the sun, towering into the clouds.

Often in such woods. You have to be very careful, the various bushes under your feet are okay, be cautious, and use more wooden spears to open the way.

The most important thing to guard against is all kinds of flying objects in the air.

"Wow, this is a flying snake...... Wang Yang saw the edge of the canopy on his head, a blue and white snake jumped, its body suddenly flattened in mid-air, and glided to another branch.

"Wow, this is a bat ......" Wang Yang saw a black shadow flash on his head.

"Wow, this is...... Didn't see it clearly. ”

In such a tropical primeval forest, you have to be careful except to be careful.

Because you can't predict when a big stupid raccoon will come and smash it on your head because it's too heavy.

Wang Yang couldn't help but think of the scene when the black bear climbed a ten-meter branch and wanted to smash himself to death.

That scene was deliberately done by the black bear, and it was not unjust that Wang Yang was really going to be stoned to death, after all, one person and one bear were fighting for territory at that time, which was not a good thing.

But this time he didn't plan to grab the land, he was really going to be smashed and crying, who to reason with.

He took Xiaohong and the three of them to a tree of uneven height and stopped.

This was the third day that they had come out to look for other things, and they still didn't see any cliffs, so Wang Yang had to change his strategy and stop whenever there was light leaking.

In this kind of place, there are often some fruits and vegetables that grow, because these two plants generally do not grow so tall except for some special cases, and they cannot compete with tall trees.

Especially in flat forests, the disadvantages are even more present.

stopped, and immediately the three of them began to pay attention to the surroundings, while he squatted down and carefully observed the various plants around him.

There are many kinds of plants on the ground, ranging from unknown grasses to tangled bushes, and some small plants with oddly shaped leaves.

It's like a hundred flowers blooming, and all grasses contending!

Just by looking at it, I feel dazzled and can't tell who is who.

As a college student who is almost useless in life practice, Wang Yang said that if they appear in textbooks and test papers, he will definitely be sharp-eyed and analyze their growth habits and growth changes.

But in real life...... Ahem, don't say anything that hurts your self-esteem.

There is nothing special about this land that has been deprived of sunlight, and there are no fruit trees, which is a pity.

But Wang Yang is not discouraged by this, even if there are fruit trees, even if they are good, they should also pick up treasures without fruit trees, and his goal is more focused on discovering metals.

If there is no surface, let's dig down!

Very direct, no nonsense, he took a wooden shovel and began to break ground.

The wooden shovel is made by Zhang San, the number is not much, after all, the production requirements are also very high, it is quite useful in digging soil, and it is often used when digging trees, and it is often in short supply.

"Wow~Wow~" The soil chips flew up, revealing a deep black soil, the mud of this land is somewhat interesting, it is a typical sandy loam.

As the name suggests, the sandy loam soil is relatively loose, and the sand composition is predominant, which is very similar to the soil on the wheat field, except that it is orange-red on that side and black on this side.

Digging and digging, he dug twenty centimeters, and suddenly, as soon as he shoveled down, a countershock came from under the wooden shovel.

Wang Yang was slightly stunned, dug to the end?

He squatted down a little suspiciously, wondered if he had dug up a stone, and stretched out his hand to remove the dirt.

Suddenly, it occurred to me that it was a ferocious burrowing beast...... Stop quickly and use a wooden shovel to remove the dirt.

The black dirt peeled away, revealing something with a red skin that looked like a fruit.

Wang Yang was not surprised, he knew very well that the fruits of some plants grew in the ground.

After making sure that there was no danger, he quickly dug out the thing, but for a moment, he was stunned, and then muttered in confusion: "Sweet potato? ”

Sweet potato, that is, sweet potato, was often eaten when I was a child in my previous life, but I rarely ate it when I lived in the city.

Occasionally, I can think of a memory or two, that is, the pale blue stove on the side of the road, and the old dealer who set up a stall, took the money from the customer's hand, and showed a mouthful of yellow teeth.

"Is it really a sweet potato?" Wang Yang found that the root was connected to the side, instead of continuing to descend, so he hurriedly dug to the side.

As a result, several fist-sized sweet potatoes were dug up.

"Woo!" When everyone saw that he had shipped it, they quickly asked him what it was.

Wang Yang was still in the trance of obscure memory, was called by everyone, woke up, took out a water bag to wash off the soil on the skin, and took out a stone knife to scrape off the red skin, revealing the pale yellow flesh inside.

"Yes or no, just take a bite and you'll know the way!"

He took a bite and it was hard, crispy, mixed with a faint sweetness, and it was definitely a sweet potato!

"Good fellows! Another grain has been discovered, and this is an absolute treasure! ”

Sweet potatoes are natural pure food, from the leaves, to the stems, to the sweet potatoes themselves, all can be eaten, and they all have a good taste.

Stems and leaves can be eaten as vegetables, and sweet potatoes can be eaten as grain.

There have been several times in history when there was a shortage of rice and noodles, and they all relied on sweet potatoes to survive the famine.

And sweet potatoes have a strong ability to survive, as long as it is not too cold in an area, give it enough sunlight, there will be a pretty good harvest.

Touching his chin, Wang Yang had already begun to think about where to plant sweet potatoes.

Other people thought it was some kind of fruit, and they also began to eat it, and it didn't feel so sweet when eaten raw, and it didn't have much water, but it did look like a fruit, and it was harder, and it was better than many fruits.

"Woo!" Everyone shouted a few words to each other, nodded, and it was obvious that they also had plans to plant.

"Planted around here? No, it's too far, so it's better to plant it in the wheat field, where the soil is right and the light is abundant. ”

After making a plan, Wang Yang began to dig sweet potatoes, and he dug out dozens of them, which were not as big as those in later generations, most of them were only the size of a fist, and some could grow to two fists.

After digging it up, he didn't bring it back immediately, but pulled all the sweet potatoes connected together into separate ones, continued to plant them, and then put them in two large trees nearby, so that the sun's rays could shine here.

He's growing sweet potatoes.

There are two ways to grow sweet potatoes, one is to use seeds, and the other is to use rhizomes.

Sweet potatoes also have seeds, and after its seeds are planted, the incubation period is very long, and it may take two or three years to break through the soil, and the quality is not good.

It is much faster to plant with rhizomes, basically there is a harvest in a year, as long as the rhizomes are many and long enough, one can be broken into more than a dozen and planted, the advantage is obvious, and the growth is rapid.

Wang Yang was not short of food for the time being, so he didn't rush to take it back, and simply planted it directly in the soil, anyway, he didn't have much experience, so he couldn't amputate his limbs, but he damaged the rhizome.

In the following month, Wang Yang and Xiaohong came here every day to inspect and look for new resources in other places. (To be continued......)
