204 found rice
"How good are these yields? And can you do so many things? Is it really better than sweet potatoes? ”
Chief Mu felt a little incredible, if these rice were planted according to what Su Mo said, wouldn't their dragon tribe have to worry about food anymore.
When he saw some tribes in the trading plain crushing this rice grain as food before, he was not particularly optimistic, but he still listened to what Su Mo said, and found all these things and brought them back.
What he didn't expect was that this rice was so precious.
Su Mo didn't expect that now that some tribes have begun to eat rice, wouldn't it be that their tribe is very strong, and they don't have to worry about food and clothing.
As Su Mo looked at Village Chief Mu and Storm Village Chief with some seriousness, he said, "What tribe did you get this rice from?" Is their tribe big? Will they grow this rice? ”
Kimura Chief was stunned and hurriedly shook his head, "We got this thing from a small tribe, and I didn't see it by accident.
But they didn't have food this winter, so they started eating the plant.
We gave them some meat and they took us to the place where they found the rice.
And they have a lot of this rice over there, and it grows in the wild, but when we went, the snow had covered all the wild rice.
They only eat it every year when they don't have food, and they make it not taste good at all.
And eating this rice is too time-consuming and energy-consuming, and it is not easy to preserve, so they will only take a small part of the rice and keep it for the winter, and then take it out and eat it when there is no food.
The next year it was still like that, and as far as I know, they don't plant what you say. ”
After listening to what Chief Mu said, Su Mo was a little happy, it was simply great.
This rice field is grown in the wild year after year, and if they get this rice field, wouldn't it be a good thing for their tribe?
Previously, she had discovered sweet potato fields and peanut fields near the Dragon Tribe, and recently King Sparrow and Jiang Bei had discovered wild fields such as potatoes and white radish.
Now there is another rice field, it is simply God helping their dragon tribe!
Su Mo then asked, "How far is this rice field from our Dragon Tribe?" Wouldn't it be troublesome if we wanted to take it? ”
Kimura Chief thought for a moment and replied, "This rice field is far away from us, about farther than going to the trading plain, and there are many tribes nearby, so we may not be able to occupy it." ”
Su Mo nodded wistfully.
Seeing Su Mo like this, Ying Tian immediately comforted, "If you want it, we will occupy it, this is also okay, as long as you propose it, I will do it at all costs." ”
Su Mo glanced at Ying Tian's domineering appearance, and was a little funny, "No, since we can't occupy it, then we will reopen a rice field ourselves."
And I see that there is still a lot of rice brought back by the village chief Ki and the village chief of the storm, so I will deal with the seeds first, and then we can choose a piece of land to plant ourselves.
And it's close to our dragon tribe, and it's easy to harvest, I'm just thinking that the wild one can grow year after year without us managing it ourselves, and it's a waste to put it there anyway, so it's better to cheapen us? ”
Ying Tian saw Su Mo say this, and didn't say anything more.
This time, Chief Kimura and Chief Stormwind not only brought back these things, but also brought back a lot of fresh fruits.
Apples, plums, grapes or something, Su Mo was a little surprised, in addition to these, Mu Village Chief also brought back some decorations on the trading plain.
Although these decorations are a bit ugly, Su Mo was a little surprised, these primitive women actually had the idea of dressing up, she remembered that when she first came, she saw Qingque and their whole body was dirty, let alone what to dress up.
In this case, aren't the pink pearls that Bai Yi gave her last time more beautiful than these collars made of bones?
If it's easier to say whose money is earned, the answer is definitely women.
It seems that no matter where a woman is, she loves to be beautiful.
If they had planted more cotton this year, and now they had found linen, they would have been able to make more beautiful clothes.
It's a lot of money to trade these clothes with those women.
Su Mo thought about it, and had a plan in his heart.
However, this time they went out to trade the bulk of the salt, according to the report of the head of the village of Ki and the head of the storm village, this time they exchanged the salt for pottery, and their pottery products, bamboo baskets and so on are very popular.
Not only that, but both of the salt-exchanging tribes sent representatives over and wanted to cooperate with the dragon tribe for a long time.
Chief Kimura and Chief Stormwind also agreed, and now they will be arranged in the post station outside the city.
Su Mo thought that long-term cooperation was feasible, so he simply handed it over to the village chief of Storm to deal with.
Su Mo took a look at the salt that Chief Mu brought back this time, and the quality was okay, but some of it was salt stone, and some of it was coarse salt.
The refined salt still has to be refined by herself, but she has been refined by the clansmen of the Divine Bird Tribe before, so she doesn't need to worry about this.
After the head of the village and the head of the storm village reported the transaction trip to Su Mo and Ying Tian, Su Mo discussed planting rice with Ying Tian.
There are many types of rice, and the one that Kimura brought back should be early rice, and the indica rice with a shorter growth period and an earlier harvest period is generally whiter and less.
The growth period of early rice is 90-125 days, generally sown from January to April, and the planting of early rice generally begins in mid-April, and enters the large-scale harvesting stage in mid-to-late July.
Now it is a good season for sowing, so she first goes to the space to plant a handful of rice, and then takes the space to plant the rice and then sows the seeds.
In the past two days, let the tribesmen who had previously opened the wasteland lead the garlic tribe and the grass tribe who wanted to join the dragon tribe to open up the wasteland again, and then they could plant a large area.
Originally, she had planned to let the people go all out to find new plants, but now that it was spring, and many things had sprouted, maybe she could find some more washed seeds, so that they could grow a lot more food.
When the harvest is in the fall, you don't have to worry about winter food.
Maybe this food can feed the dragon tribe for a year or two?
If this goes on year after year, the dragon tribe will no longer have to worry about food.
The staple food has been taken care of, it is a meat problem, and now that the dragon tribe has salt, there is no need to worry about the storage of meat in winter.
Cured or smoked meat can be kept for a period of time.
And now the scale of poultry farming in the tribe is gradually expanding.
Su Mo suddenly remembered that she didn't seem to have been to the Dragon Tribe's farm for a while, and she didn't know what the situation was like with the farm now?
On the same day, Su Mo and Ying Tian came to the farm of the Dragon Tribe, and the number of poultry raised in the farm is about tens of thousands, so the scale of the farm is constantly expanding.
