Agrarian people, fishermen, hunters, and nomadic peoples are the three ethnic groups that are distinguished by the mode of production.

Historically, these three identities have always had irreconcilable contradictions.

Yan Zheng wanted to bring the surrounding tribes into farming, also in order to expand the farming civilization.

In this way, a circle of agricultural civilization will naturally be formed.

Over time, farming naturally does not look down on the kind of tribes that fish a little in the river, pick a little in the field, and beat a little in the forest.

And if a tribe goes into farming, a single person can create more value, and more resources can be exploited.

According to the trajectory of history, farming, a mode of production, spread through communication, is a slow process.

What Yan Zheng wants to do is to speed up the trajectory of this spread, and if there are tribes resisting, he will force them to farm with a knife.

He went to the field and gathered all the good farmers. There were more than sixty in all, half of whom were women.

These people work in the fields every day, and they all have some understanding of the habits of rice, and they have been taught by Yan Zheng.

They are also the proudest existence among the clansmen, and even stubbornly believe that only people like them, who are favored by the Son of God, can grow good rice.

Yan Zheng looked at them with a smile and said directly: "I'm mainly here to test you today, listen to your views on farming, say good, reward!" If you can't say it, don't serve the rice, go serve the beans! ”

When the farmer heard this, he immediately became serious, some were eager to try, and some were panicked.

"You, you come first!" Yan Zheng named a tall and thin man.

The man smiled and said, "Farming...... To plant rice, you have to get the field first, and when you can see the color of the sky in the field, you can plant it! I have to go to the seedling field to pull the seedlings, and then ...... Plant it! ”

Yan Zheng listened carefully to these stumbling words, and it was still a little difficult for the clansmen to summarize one thing.

"When planting, you have to look neat, at this time in the field, you should be able to see the footprints, and when the footprints look gone, you have to fertilizer, and the field is not good-looking after the fertilizer......"

Listening to this man's description, Yan Zheng couldn't wait to give him a thumbs up, this special thing can actually come up with the method of watching the fields and farming, and the head of what his mother said is the Tao.

After this man finished speaking, Yan Zheng, a little expert in rice planting, was stunned. But if you can sum up one set, you are a qualified farmer!

"That's right! However, you also have to remember that you need to fertilize the seedlings once before raising them so that the seedlings can grow better! Yan Zheng commented, "In recognition of your contribution to farming, I will give you the name Longda!" ”

The man hurriedly saluted, and said with excitement on his face: "Thank you, I will definitely farm harder!" ”

"Uh-huh, next!"

This time it was a middle-aged woman who appeared on the scene, and she smiled honestly: "I think you have to level the field first for farming, and you can know if you taste the mud, and when the mud is delicate, the seedlings like it the most!" After planting, you should also taste the mud, and when the mud tastes smooth, you should fertilize it! When the flowers are raised, the smell of mud will be warm again......"

Yan Zheng's mouth almost fell off, this fucking sparrow pecks the cow's ass, it's really awesome!

Who would have thought that someone would sum up the method of eating soil and farming?

He coughed and said, "That's right, it's organized, I'll reward you with a painted pottery!" ”

The woman was a little disappointed that she had not been given a name, and now the tribe knew that it was a great honor to give a name.

Yan Zheng asked a few more people and found that the methods summed up were really messy, but fortunately, they all remembered the steps that should be taken to plant rice.

As long as you remember them, you don't care how they remember them. As long as the clansmen gradually get used to summarizing, then there will always be some experience to talk about.

"When planting rice, there should be the idea of rice!"

Just when Yan Zheng didn't want to listen anymore, a teenager stood up confidently.

Yan Zheng asked, "What do you think of Daozi?" ”

"Rice loves wind, water, and sunshine! When selecting seeds, let them be baptized by the wind, and the baptized rice can be taken to the seedling field! When raising seedlings, rice does not like too much water, and it cannot do without water. After the seedlings are grown, they don't like to be too crowded, so they have to scatter them and plant them, and when they are happy to bloom, they want to fly to their heart's content! When they grow grains, they like the sun and a lot of water............"

After Yan Zheng listened, he applauded, although this is anthropomorphic, but he is thinking about the rice.

"From now on, you will be called Long Ming!"

Long Ming thanked him happily, and when he looked at the others, he unconsciously puffed up his chest.

Yan Zheng also understood through the words of these people that it is too difficult to popularize knowledge and technology, and a professional cannot be familiar with his own field without a few years of systematic training.

In primitive societies, there was almost no systematic structure of knowledge, and naturally it could only be transmitted orally.

Fortunately, in the end, he still picked out twenty agricultural technicians, and he didn't want to teach the best farming methods to other tribes, so these half-baked agricultural technicians were just right!

This approach is very Western, hoping that you will be able to develop, but also not wanting you to develop too fast.

It's just that these agricultural technicians are all bitter-faced, and they are unwilling to go to other tribes to teach others to grow rice.

The reason is also very simple, even in the face of their own people, they are unwilling to teach them to grow rice, let alone people from other tribes.

What is involved here cannot be regarded as selfishness, but it can only be said that these good farmers think that they are proud to be able to farm well.

Therefore, they do not allow anyone to steal this pride of their own, which can be regarded as a stubborn sense of superiority, and may even evolve into a rice faith.

Yan Zheng didn't give much advice, only told these people that if they couldn't teach those tribes, they would never grow rice after they came back.

It's like having a disgusting boss in the future, who always likes to threaten employees with things they care about.

As soon as these words came out, these people really lost that reluctant expression, and instead were frightened, they were afraid that they would not be able to continue to enjoy the superiority of rice cultivation in the future.

Yan Zheng was very satisfied with this performance, and after a few more words, Shi Shiran walked out of the inner city.

He went to inspect the free-range piglets, and when he tapped on the trough, a group of piglets came running.

These piglets usually eat cooked pigweed, and they also eat beans every day.

Physically, the center of gravity of their bodies has shifted backwards, and they are no longer like wild boars, with their center of gravity on their heads and abdomen.

Especially after castration, the piglets can be clearly found to be happier, and the center of gravity of their bodies has also moved to the waist and abdomen.

And the accumulation of fat can be faintly seen, which indicates that the domestication is very successful.

Yan Zheng barked a few more times, and found that these little pigs had also begun to get close to people.

There was joy on his face, as if authentic pork belly was beckoning to him.

I went to see the deer again, and it turned out that the deer were not as good as the pigs, and these deer were too slow to grow meat, and they were wild and difficult to go, and they were a little afraid of people.

This made him a little disappointed, if it weren't for the kidney-tonifying effect of deer blood and deer antler velvet, he wouldn't have domesticated this thing!
