Chapter 16: Cashing In
But the problem is that the vast majority of the clansmen are still struggling with food, and most of their time is spent looking for food, where is there any extra energy to devote to cultivation? If they can't eat enough, how can they still have physical strength to cultivate? Hunting can exercise the actual combat level of the clansmen to a certain extent, but this is limited after all, and there will also be disabilities, which will deplete the strength of the Yan clan!
Therefore, if you want to strengthen the family, you must first solve the problem of food and clothing.
Jia Jie put his mind on planting and breeding. I am afraid that this is the only way to obtain a stable source of food.
The next morning, Jia Jie took a dozen old people and women who were familiar with plants out of the valley to look for edible plants to be protected by the hunting team along the way. The others stayed in the valley to reclaim the land with a relatively strong aura that Jia Jie had circled. Set fire to the growing plants, then dig out the roots and level the ground.
Jia Jie and the others stopped along the way, discussing which plants could produce more fruit and which seemed easier to grow. It took a few days to walk through all the hills within a radius of twenty miles around the valley, and only then did they select a few plants and collect seeds to bring back to the valley.
Jia Jie also found several rare elixirs in a col with an unusually strong aura. It is estimated that the old man should be happy now, he can refine a few more furnaces of elixir, which is also an improvement for the strength of the Yan clan.
The hunting team was not idle along the way, and while protecting everyone, it was also very hard to carry the corpses of the demon beasts killed by Jia Jie and the captured beasts.
When the group returned to the valley, the clansmen had already cultivated hundreds of acres of fields with strong spiritual energy in various parts of the clan.
Jia Jie first asked the tribesmen to enclose a large field with abundant water and grass, and put all the wild beasts and beasts caught along the way into it. These beasts are herbivores, sika deer, wild boars, antelopes, hares, pheasants...... There are all kinds of things, which makes the valley a burst of chickens and dogs.
These beasts are kept in the valley and are not threatened by predators, and should be able to breed quickly. Jia Jie told the patriarch that when hunting in the future, he should catch more wild beasts and let them in. I believe that after next spring, the Yan clan will have a stable source of meat even if they don't go out to hunt.
The problem of breeding has been solved, but there is no eyebrow at all in planting.
These are all new things that Jia Jie has made, and he has never had experience before. When you are hungry, you go out into the field to pick it, and when you finish eating it, you move to another place. No one knows how to grow these plants.
I don't know if it will work, and the tribesmen are not very optimistic.

Jay has no experience in planting, not even in the database. Because none of the plants you have chosen are found in that world.
However, Jia Jie didn't worry too much, and seemed to have a plan in his mind. In fact, after observing and thinking, Jia Jie did have a certain certainty. As for whether it can be done, it's up to people!
In Jia Jie's bones, there is not only the meticulousness and composure of planning and then acting, but also the innate optimism and open-mindedness, in other words, sometimes a little heartless.
Now that it is close to the late autumn season, it is a big problem whether the seeds can germinate normally if they are planted, and as for the food problem of the Yan clan in a short period of time, as Jia Jie said, the clan elder and Chifeng Yan have never thought about it.
The reason why everyone cooperates with Jia Jie's action is more of a meaning of training and exercise, and it can't dampen the enthusiasm of other young people. If the Yan clan can withstand this catastrophe, smooth development and growth are inevitable.
Sooner or later, the Yan clan will be handed over to Jia Jie, and it is always right for him to exercise more.
The land was well leveled according to Jia Jie's requirements. Debris such as tree roots, stones, etc., have been cleared out. Only a thick layer of ash remained on the ground.
Jia Jie frowned slightly. The land was not ploughed.
That's right, after all, the tribesmen have no experience in planting at all, and it is impossible to have the corresponding agricultural tools. However, this was not a big problem, and Jia Jie quickly thought of a solution.
So, Hornhorn was ridden by a red crow. The Moon Mochizuki Rhino is a rare dual-system demon beast of water and soil, and although it has not mastered powerful spells, it is still very suitable to bring it over to cultivate a field.
After some bargaining and coercion, Jiaojiao finally succumbed to Jia Jie's obscenity.
The Mochizuki Rhinoceros is more sensitive to aura, and when casting spells, it controls the power of spells very well, and does not hurt the earth's qi. After ploughing, a burst of rain and mist was released to moisten the field, which made Jia Jie very satisfied, and really praised Jiaojiao a few words.
The service is attentive, but the price is equally heavy. Jia Jiexu gave Jiaojiao a huge reward of fifty spirit stones. The Yan clan doesn't even have a fragment of spirit stones now, God knows what he said about the whole fifty pieces, or where to find half of the spirit stones of the water and earth systems, it can't be conjured out of thin air.
When the horns ploughed a whole hundred acres of land, Rao was so strong that he was too tired to do it, panting like an ox (it seems...... )。
The most annoying thing is that when Jiaojiao asked Jia Jie for payment, he bluntly said that there was not a single spirit stone in the clan, and the rough skin and thick Jiaojiao almost exploded.
The red crow also looked at Brother Jia Jie with disdain. Even other people's mounts are cheating, it's really shameless.
Jia Jie's old face turned red, and then he said: "Brother Niu, to tell you the truth, it's not that I don't have a spirit stone, but I didn't put it in the valley. Do you dare to accompany me to retrieve the spirit stones tomorrow, and I will add another fifty spirit stones to you!"
Jiaojiao was still angry, and when he heard this, he almost gave Jia Jie a corner. Well, you really think I'm a stupid cow, and you're here to lie to me again!
"Fifty pieces of water system, fifty pieces of earth system, cash on the spot, do you want to go? No, but even today's fifty pieces are gone!"
But the red crow believed. Although Jia Jie is sometimes a little bad, he never counts when he speaks, and he never pays off. As for why the spirit stone was placed outside the valley, it was not the little girl's concern.
The red crow stroked Jiaojiao's ears and comforted him for a while, and Jiaojiao reluctantly agreed. Niu Ye will let go of this 8,000 catties, look at your embarrassing things!
After ploughing the field, Jia Jie took out the collected seeds and distributed them to the people. When collecting, Jia Jie carefully paid attention to the living environment of these plants, whether they liked shade or sunlight, and whether they grew in high places or depressions, and he wrote them down one by one.
Jia Jie instructed the people to sort the seeds and plant them in each field. He was also busy, carving charms on large stones and burying them in the fields according to different angles.
Each of these charms has a small groove in the middle, and I don't know what it is for.
It took two more days for the Yan people to plant all the seeds in the field, and Jia Jie also buried the stones.
The food he brought back last time was almost finished, and Jia Jie took the hunting team out of the valley again and hunted a few low-level demon beasts.
Only then did he make some preparations, and rode out of the valley early the next morning.
Corner corners are also a last resort. I didn't want him to ride him - even if he wanted to ride, he had to get the consent of the old cow, so he had to say a few good words. However, Jia Jie didn't ask at all, and directly turned over on the back of the cow with a bucket.
Hey, the cow is under the eaves, and I have to bow my head. There was no red crow to save him this time.
A man and a beast walked out for a full fifty miles without stopping. This place has already come out of the territory of Jiaojiao, but the powerful momentum of its fifth-order demon beast is still there, and no demon beast that does not have long eyes dares to come out and spread wild.
After walking a few more miles, Jiaojiao couldn't help but beat a drum in his heart. Although the fifth-order demon beast is powerful, it is not a top-notch existence in the mountains full of demon beasts. Wouldn't it be terrible if a sixth-order demon beast ran out?
Fortunately, Jia Jie said that he would be there after turning the hill in front of him.
Turning the hill, there was an unusually deep pool of water in front of me, blue and watery, which looked a little weird. The aura near the waterhole is very strong, which makes Jiaojiao feel refreshed. There's no place in my own territory where the aura is so strong, maybe there's some treasure.
A pair of bull's eyes immediately flashed brightly. It didn't notice that Jia Jie, who had been riding on his back, had mysteriously disappeared.
Subconsciously added a little caution, Jiaojiao slowly walked towards the waterhole, where the aura is the thickest, if there is a treasure, it must be hidden in the waterhole!
Slowly approaching the waterhole, a pair of bull's eyes kept looking around the waterhole to see if there would be any other treasures. Lao Niu is also a good treasure hunter, and he has had a few adventures, otherwise he would not have grown into a fifth-order demon beast in just a hundred years.
The greedy nature saved the horn once. As soon as I approached the waterhole, I remembered that countless thumb-sized, pure blue water flies flew out of the treetops in the grassy pool, and flew towards the corners. The water flies flew extremely fast, and before they could react, they were all sealed in all directions.
Reading is exciting, reading is wonderful!
