017 Just look at you
Wang asked: "Young lady, then according to what you say, there are still a lot of taro around here?" ”
If this is the case, the dire food problem can be alleviated.
With food, they were able to fill their stomachs, regain their strength, and reach the city at a faster pace, ready to survive the cold winter.
Xu Yue shook her head helplessly, looking at the Tong family, Qiu family and the others who were already cooking taro in the pot.
Wang followed her line of sight and immediately understood.
She patted the top of Xu Yue's hair and smiled widely, "The young lady is very powerful, with these you brought back, plus the prey that A-Niang brought back, it is enough for us to eat for a while." ”
He didn't blame her for telling others about the taro in the mountains, but praised her for doing a great job.
Xu Yue's heart was warm, but she was still a little worried about the coming days.
asked in a low voice, "Auntie, what should we do next?" ”
Xu Erniang and Xu Da, who had already dealt with the pheasant and came back, all looked at the Wang family when they heard the words.
Unconsciously, she has already become the backbone of the family.
Although this may be due to the difference in force value, it has to be said that the excellent wilderness survival ability shown by the Wang family makes Xu Yue and others feel that she is more reliable than Xu Da, a cheap father.
Wang analyzed in a clear manner: "There is water here, and we can also hunt prey, so let's rest here for two days, and wait for the wind to pass before going down the mountain while preparing food." ”
Xu Da felt that it was feasible, after all, food was the most important thing, he fled in a hurry before, and he didn't prepare anything, but now that he has this opportunity, he naturally has to prepare well.
It's just that......
The father and daughter tacitly looked at the villagers of Dawang Village who had returned from the forest, these people were there, there were advantages and disadvantages.
The advantage is that there is strength in numbers, and they can keep the pond in front of them.
But the downside is also obvious, the only remaining food resources have to be shared with these people.
The worries of the father and daughter, how could the Wang family not know?
There will be gains and losses, just like Xu Da said before, before they become strong, the strength of the group is still very necessary.
It is impossible to say that you will use others when you need them, and leave them when you don't want them.
And what about next time?
It's not like every time you want to hire someone, there will happen to be so many people who show up and let you take advantage of it.
"There is a lot of prey in the woods, so I will take them to hunt tomorrow, at least we will keep this pond first, and prepare the food we need for the journey."
Speaking of this, Wang was worried about the container of water.
This is ancient times, there are no folding compressed water bottles, and on the premise that they can't determine where the next water source is, they have to prepare at least half a month's basic water.
If each person meets the basic security needs of one liter of water per day, five people are five liters, and half a month's amount is 75 liters of water.
With Xu Dalang's great strength, coupled with her and Xu Da's sharing, it can be completely moved.
But what do you need to hold so much water?
The weight of the traditional bamboo tube itself is very heavy, and the carrying force is doubled, and the weight of 300 catties is not realistic.
Moreover, there is a risk of water leakage in the bamboo tube, and I am afraid that most of it can be missed on the rugged and bumpy mountain road.
Wang fell into deep thought.
The pheasant in the clay pot began to stew fragrantly, and the three brothers and sisters of Xu Yue stared at the clay pot, even if their stomachs had been filled with taro, they were still hungry and swallowed their saliva.
Fresh chicken soup, even if you don't put anything, this is the best meal since the crossing.
People's talents are forced out, and before the crossing, Xu Da, who only knew how to taste food, never knew that he was the eldest young master of a family of gentlemen, and he could still light up the skill of cooking.
A pot of chicken soup, with only a few slices of dried ginger brought from home and a little salt water, can be so fragrant after cooking over high heat, which he didn't expect.
Xu Da was complacent and felt that he was a culinary genius.
Xu Yue and Xu Erniang glanced at each other, saw through it and didn't say anything, in order to have a free chef in the future, they praised Daddy's good talent with a clear conscience, and Xu Da was even more energetic.
The aroma was even worse, the pond was full of the tempting smell of chicken soup, the sound of swallowing saliva came, and the pair of eyes glowing with green light made people panic.
Wang Dayou's family is okay, he followed Wang before, but he let him pick up a rabbit that leaked from Wang's hand.
At this time, half of the stew was given to the children to improve their food, and the eldest lady of the Wang family and the youngest son of the Wang family, who had just begun to learn to speak, were extremely satisfied.
Because of the presence of taro, the other villagers more or less relieved their hunger, and under the temptation of such delicious chicken soup, they just watched with their eyes and did not come forward to snatch it.
Of course, they also knew that the thin self might not be able to rob the Wang family, who was capable of turning over several victims from other villages, so they didn't dare to rob it.
Xu Da took out five pottery bowls and filled a bowl of chicken soup for each of his family, and several pieces of meat were placed in each bowl, which made people's appetite move.
Xu Yue held the child's body on her head, and she didn't want to lose face, so she snorted and made a bowl of chicken soup first, which was so beautiful that she hiccuped.
As soon as she moved, the rest of the people moved.
Seeing that the Xu family and Wang Dayou's family could eat meat, Wang Dahai, who had been sexist before, couldn't help it, moved up, and talked to the Wang family with a shy face, begging her to bring herself and others with her next time she went out hunting.
Wang smiled and was very generous, not only agreed, but also gave them a fatter rabbit.
Wang Dahai was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, he knelt down and praised Wang for being a good person.
Xu Da silently drank chicken soup and watched this scene, and his eyes flashed with disdain.
I used to call the Wang family and the Xu family, but now, I directly called the sister-in-law of the Xu family.
It's just that there is no free lunch in this world.
Sure enough, Wang got up and said to Wang Dahai and the others: "I have one condition, if you agree, follow me to hunt." ”
Wang Dahai and the others held the rabbit, and there was nothing wrong with it, so they first said that it was okay for the Wang family to make cattle and horses, and then they quieted down and waited for the Wang family to say the conditions.
Wang said lightly: "The conditions are very simple, I can take you to hunt next, but the prey you hunt will be handed over to me for distribution, and the fur of the animals will have to be given to me." ”
"If you agree, raise your hand, and if you don't agree, go find food by yourself, and I don't care about you, as for this rabbit, whether you agree or not, it's still yours, just let me accumulate virtue and do good deeds for the children in the house."
Wang Dahai and the others looked at each other, but they didn't expect the conditions to be so simple.
However, he was also afraid of fraud, Wang Dahai specially confirmed, "Can you manage it enough?" What's the point of prey? ”
"It's up to God to be full, but I can guarantee that everyone will get the same prey."
"But!" Wang's expression was grim, and he stared at Wang Dahai, whose eyes were rolling wildly, and warned: "Sneaking and cheating, don't try to take advantage of everyone!" ”
Wang Dahai met this cold look, and said in his heart, what are you doing with me, I don't want to be lazy.
Wang's dangerous eyes narrowed: Just look at you!
Wang Dahai confessed, turned his head to look at the people behind him, and everyone had no objection and agreed.
