Chapter 226: Prosperity Begins Here
The dog's tail grass in front of me...... Wheat, which grows in the fields of miscanthus grass, is really wonderful.
Wang Yang really had never seen wheat, but he remembered that the climate and environment here should be very similar to North Africa and West Asia, where wheat was cultivated in large quantities.
I saw that this plant was seventy centimeters high.
The leaf sheaths are glabrous, green, flattened, strip-lanceolate, seventeen centimeters long and eight centimeters wide.
Spike-like inflorescences cylindrical, erect, eight centimeters long and about one centimeter wide.
And the particles wrapped in chaff are covered with the ridges of Hui, and the leaf sheath stands straight, a pillar of optimus, not bent by the wind at all, and looks very hard.
But its appearance really resembles a dog's tail grass, if it weren't for the fact that its fruit was already full, Wang Yang would really be completely mistaken.
Blinking his strange gaze, Wang Yang grabbed the ears of wheat and gently pinched them, and the ears fell down, maybe it shouldn't be called ears or millet, it should be called Yingguo professionally.
He held dozens of Yingguo in his hand, pinched it again, and looked at it again, those shells cracked and fell off, and there was no Yingguo at all, which was very different from barley and rice and other crops.
Looking at the yellow Ying flesh in his hand, Wang Yang was very excited, some of the Ying flesh grew round, some looked like a rectangular circle, and there was a groove in the abdomen, from top to bottom.
Compared with other rice and rice, it is like a short and fat fat man, figuratively speaking, a chestnut that has shrunk many times.
Wang Yang threw one into his mouth, chewed it gently, and a unique stream of flour spread all over the tip of his tongue, which was also mixed with a slight astringency.
Eat it directly, it really doesn't taste good.
But he knew it. Wheat is different from barley rice, those are rice. Can be made into rice, and these. It is used to make flour, steamed buns, buns, bread and so on.
Thinking of this, Wang Yang was very excited, what did you say about that? The bread will be there, the house will be there.
When he found wheat, he found bread!
He couldn't wait to bring in the adults and ask them to spread out of the crow in search of wheat. Collect them all.
Everyone understood that Wang Yang had discovered new food, so they happily dispersed.
On this day, they found no less than a few hundred wheat plants in this small area, and it seems that they are very well adapted to this arid and hot climate.
For more than ten days after that, they had been frantically searching, and the wheat and fruits they collected were packed into a sack.
Wang Yang gets up every day. It is to keep tossing and turning in the one-meter-high grass pile of miscanthus grass in search of wheat.
"One plant."
"Another one!"
"Another one!"
The more he looked, the happier he became, the more excited he became, and there was a tendency that he couldn't stop after knocking on the medicine.
It's a very big gain, a real one.
Wheat was discovered. This can open up a new chapter in agriculture and bring a precarious nomadic life into a stable agrarian society.
This means that they will stop. And less than a month's walk away is a clay mine, which is very beneficial for their construction.
No doubt. This is a very good sign.
Wang Yang looked at the grassland and clenched his fists. He was going to settle here, an environment that was suitable for growing wheat, and was close to rivers and clay mines, making it very suitable for human habitation.
He wondered what to do with the bag of wheat, should he make a few loaves of bread and try it now?
The others stared at the bag of wheat with hot eyes, wondering what it tasted like and how to eat it.
The orthopedic scientist and others couldn't hold it anymore, so they hurriedly asked Wang Yang, how to deal with it?
Wang Yang pondered for a while, shook his head, and said that he would not eat.
He also wants to eat, he wants to eat very much, it can be said that he wants to eat the most among all people, as the so-called does not know the taste, does not eat the marrow, he has eaten a lot of delicacies made of flour in his previous life, and now he thinks about it, and his saliva is loud.
But he had to think about it, these Ying Fruits are both food and seeds, such a big bag, not to mention thousands of wheat plants, just eat it, isn't it too wasteful?
He pulled everyone in, pointed to this boundless grassland, and firmly said that he was going to settle here!
Xiaohong immediately objected, drawing pictures to show that there were no canyons, no caves, no trees, and that she could not live here.
Wang Yang asked rhetorically: "Why?" ”
Xiaohong also asked, "Why?" ”
Wang Yang asked why, why can't you live without canyons, caves and trees?
Xiaohong asks why she lives here.
Turning his head, he saw that the others were also very confused, they still tended to live in the deep mountains and old forests, and subconsciously thought that it was "home".
Wang Yang immediately rolled up his sleeves, picked up the branches, and waved them into a painting.
He painted a very simple picture, a village.
There are many houses in the village, with earthen walls and thatched roofs, and people live in and out of the houses.
Some people are grazing on alpacas, and some are working.
The fields where they work are covered with wheat of all their color and of a neat and uniform color.
The wheat is ripe, the whole piece is golden, in the breeze blowing, setting off waves of wheat, people are happily harvesting, abundant food and clothing.
Others collect the wool from the alpacas and weave new clothes.
The scene is fascinating.
Seeing this, everyone was stunned and speechless, and they were all brought into the wonderful scene by Wang Yang's paintings, as if they were already in it, extremely intoxicated.
They had never seen anything like it, but their imagination was so great that they could understand it completely.
It can be seen that the way of life in the painting is very similar to that of the past, except that fruit trees were planted in the past, and wheat is now planted.
In the past, small animals were raised, but now they are "grass and mud horses".
The house used to be for the animals, but now it's for themselves.
In the past, the waterway next to him was called a stream, but now the waterway next to him is called a river.
It seemed that there was no change, and there was no change, so they completely agreed with Wang Yang's idea, and nodded exaggeratedly.
But they don't know what to do, in fact, when they support Wang Yang's decision, they have turned a new chapter in human history, from nomadic life to village mode.
They don't realize the meaning and benefits of it, but Wang Yang knows the Tao, is the history of the previous life learned in vain?
This kind of lifestyle focuses on stability, durability, and is conducive to promoting the development of people's livelihood, Wang Yang needs such a way of life, only in this way, he does not have to think about what to eat at the next meal every day.
I have time to use everything in my head.
Thinking about the prosperity of the tribe in the future, he clenched his fists, and his heart was full of excitement.
Seeing that Wang Yang was so happy, the exorcist hesitated for a while, decided to pull him back to reality, and asked weakly.
"What's next?"
Wang Yang suddenly raised his eyebrows. (To be continued......)
