Chapter 28 Switching Concepts
Why is the main purpose of this time to pick wild fruits?
Wang Yang made an analysis and judgment, and the main problem now is the lack of food after winter.
In this case, how to preserve the food is the key.
And Wang Yang is just one person, it is almost difficult to store enough food, and he needs certain supplementary conditions.
For example, switch the concept of storage.
As we all know, meat can be stored for a long time after drying, and fruits can be stored for a long time after drying, but these are more troublesome, you have to get them first, and then you have to make sure that everyone doesn't eat them......
The easiest way to do this is to get nuts.
Nuts include chestnuts, walnuts and other hard-shelled kernels, which can be left for a long time without any guarantee of spoilage.
Wang Yang's idea is to do everything possible to keep this kind of food.
So he wanted to pick more fruit and let everyone eat it, and then he secretly hid the nuts and took them out when food was scarce.
This is a huge amount of work, and it is crazy to think about saving the rations of thirty people by one person.
But he can't do it, only he realizes it.
It was impossible for him to go to the outskirts of the forest, where the food was still limited in the end, and when it was lightened and preserved, it was only enough to feed about 20 people.
I had to go deep into the forest to find more food.
Suddenly, Wang Yang realized a very serious problem.
Except for humans with developed postmodern desires, in this era, whether it is ape-man or any other animal, the extent of their territory is judged by the sufficiency of food.
Like a tiger, it needs a mountain to keep it fed.
The Bladetooth Tiger needs to defend a certain territory so that it can get plenty of food.
In the past, they often died because they could not get warm in winter, their wounds could not be reduced in time, and their equipment was too poor.
So the population has remained at about twenty people.
The outskirts of the forest have just enough food for them, so they don't need to risk expanding their territory.
If you want them to expand their territory and go deep into the forest, you don't need to make them listen to themselves at all, you just need to make them realize that there is not enough food in the territory.
"It's so much easier than a miracle!" Wang Yang patted his forehead and laughed.
As long as they can survive this winter, they will expand their territory and go deeper into the forest.
Thinking of this, Wang Yang was in a good mood and walked into the depths of the forest.
He was already familiar with this journey, and it passed quickly.
He came to the fruit tree with the word "one" engraved on it, and picked up a lot of fruit on the ground, roughly estimated that there were more than twenty, and filled his pockets to the brim.
There were still dozens of fruits on the tree, so Wang Yang put the wooden bucket on the ground, and after getting on the tree, he threw down the fruits one by one, and in this way picked half of the fruit of the tree, which was already a wooden barrel and a few bags.
Don't look at these dozens of fruits, in fact, it's only a meal for thirty people, maybe it's not enough.
Wang Yang picked up the wooden barrel and took it back with difficulty.
Luckily, he didn't see the saber-toothed tiger this time, and it only took him two hours to walk back and forth.
Back in the cave, the friends gathered around and wanted to eat.
Wang Yang calculated the time, and before noon, he slapped off their little hands one by one and put them on the stone platform inside.
He pulled Zhang San over, pointed to the food, pointed to his mouth, shook his head, and then pointed to his eyes and pointed to the friends around him.
In general, it means, "You can't eat these foods, you have to take care of them." ”
Zhang San looked at him stunned, then looked at the red fruit, grabbed one, took a bite, and the fruity aroma rolled on the tongue coating, like a wave after wave, stimulating Zhang San's taste buds.
He smiled happily and said it was delicious.
Wang Yang patted his forehead wordlessly: "Forget it, I don't have the same knowledge as you." ”
He poured all the fruits on the stone platform, personally slapped away the outstretched hands one after another, and then kept pointing to the fruits to Zhang Sanzhi and shaking his head.
Repeat over and over again, over and over again.
Then his sister stretched out her hand, Wang Yang stopped patting, and looked at Zhang San.
Zhang San was stunned, stepped forward and slapped Wang Yingying's hand.
Wang Yang was overjoyed, but Zhang San picked up another fruit and ate it.
"I'm ¥%#! As an overseer, how can you fill your pockets! ”
Wang Yang was speechless, no matter what, even if he paid his salary.
Then he picked up the barrel and fanny pack and went deeper into the forest.
Unfortunately, this time I met the Bladetooth Tiger.
However, it seemed to know that Wang Yang was a hard bone and not easy to bite, so it left with a symbolic roar.
It is estimated that the translation into Mandarin is: "Boy, don't let me see you next time." ”
Wang Yang didn't throw it with a stone, for fear of provoking it and spending a few more days.
He picked the fruit on his own, and when he had finished it, he returned to the cave.
It was noon, and the adults had returned, and they had also picked a lot of fruit, especially nuts, which were very abundant in the autumn.
The friends were ruthlessly slapped on the hands of Zhang San, the chief manager, all morning, and watched him eat so deliciously, he was already hungry.
Seeing a large pile of nuts, without saying a word, they pounced on them and grabbed them.
Wang Yang took the first step, took all the food bags, and then poured out the fruits in the bags.
The nuts are all packed into several bags and hung on their waists, and no matter what the friends want, they just don't give it.
The idea is to eat foods that are not easy to preserve, such as fruits, and then eat foods that are preserved longer.
The adults didn't object, they had eaten too many of these things, and they didn't feel good about eating them earlier, but the meat was still delicious, so they simply let Wang Yang pretend to go.
This time, Wang Yang didn't know who to give the nuts to.
None of them understood their own thoughts, although Zhang San would help him keep an eye on others, but he ate too hard and was unreliable.
He thought that if only he had a safe, he couldn't run around with a whole bunch of nuts.
He thought about it a thousand times but couldn't come up with a clue.
In the afternoon, he didn't go to pick the fruit, the tree had already been picked by him, and if he wanted to pick it, he had to find another one.
He supervised Zhang San's training in the cave, and then watched him make wooden barrels and guide him.
Suddenly, Wang Yang's eyes lit up, and he kept carving with a piece of wood.
The piece of wood was quite large, fifty centimeters in diameter, and he was going to cut a two-centimeter flat surface down.
So he kept chopping and digging.
In these days, cutting down trees was a troublesome matter, after all, there were no axes, and the polishing and manufacturing of stone tools was still in its infancy, and there were not many tools to take advantage of.
Basically, you use a stone knife to cut, the stone knife is pointed on one side, thick on the other side, and the thick one is held by hand, and the sharp end is taken to cut.
Of course Wang Yang wouldn't do that, it would take too much effort.
He held the stone knife in one hand and a large round stone in the other, and knocked it down one by one, just like a nail, with the help of the simplest striking method, to improve efficiency.
It took him a day, tired enough, to cut off a two-centimeter-thick and fifty-centimeter-diameter plank.
