After a few months of getting along, Zhu Yuanyuan has figured out the temperament of her family, and she is not surprised by her eldest brother's reaction.

She had to grow her own sweet potatoes for the first crop, otherwise there was no way to explain why she knew how to grow new food.

Learning to grow sweet potatoes in the process of groping is more convincing than knowing how to grow them somehow.

Zhu Yongyong ate and drank enough to pack the fire and prepare to go out, Zhu Yuanyuan felt strange, "Big brother doesn't patrol at night, why don't you leave now and rest more at home?" ”

The sun is in the sky, even autumn is very hot, and going out at noon is no less than asking for sin.

"The patriarch has something to do with me, it's almost time, I'll take a look," Zhu Yongyong touched his sister's little head and advised, "You play at home obediently, if you are bored, you can also go to your friends, just don't go out of the tribe." ”

"Okay," Zhu Yuanyuan nodded obediently.

When the eldest brother left, he immediately found his animal skin dress, turned into a human form, and went out with a small backpack.

She was going to plant sweet potatoes, and this time the seeds had passed the clear road, so she didn't need to plant them secretly, and it didn't matter if they were seen.

Zhu Yuanyuan habitually ran to the river, ready to find a piece of land with soft soil and easy to cultivate sweet potatoes, but found that many elderly orcs were turning the ground, and the leader was the old patriarch who snatched her potatoes.

"Yuanyuan is here," Zhu He's serious face smiled, "Let's help see how the ground we turn is and whether it is suitable for growing potatoes." ”

"Actually, I don't have much experience," Zhu Yuanyuan modestly excused himself, "Old patriarch, you can take a look at the field where potatoes were planted in front of you, as long as it's about the same." ”

Zhu He nodded, "I just looked for it according to the appearance of that land." ”

There is still a bit of a difference between the newly cultivated land, so it is appropriate to dig some silt by the river to cover the original mud.

"You have a good eye, there must be no problem," Zhu Yuanyuan praised without hesitation.

The smile on Zhu He's face expanded, "You also have a good eye." ”

"Mmmm, you're right," Zhu Yuanyuan nodded like a peck of rice.

The old and the young looked at each other for a few seconds, and they all fell into deep thought.

Zhu He felt that the cub in front of him seemed to be too narcissistic, while Zhu Yuanyuan thought that the old patriarch was more like a cunning fox orc.

No matter what you think in your heart, you still have to pretend to appreciate each other on your face, and after a wave of business blows, it was the old patriarch who was not thick enough to change the topic.

"What kind of fruit is the round back? I don't think I've seen it before. ”

"This is a fruit dug up in the forest, I call it a sweet potato," Zhu Yuanyuan said nonsense with his eyes open, and added a sentence when he was finished, "I don't know if you have seen it or not." ”

Zhu He suddenly realized, "I said I hadn't seen it, it turned out that it was dug out of the soil, did you want to give them to me to try planting when you brought them to the river?" ”

The old patriarch didn't ask if he could eat it, but used Zhu Yuanyuan's previous trial rhetoric to try to pull the sweet potatoes under the name of the tribe.

This kind of behavior, Zhu Yuanyuan directly described it in three words, "shameless!" ”

The smile on the old patriarch's face gradually stiffened, he was also distressed, if the adult orc found new food, he would automatically turn it over to the clan without saying it, but it was a five-year-old female cub.

Snatching the food of ignorant cubs will make people laugh out of their big teeth when it is passed on.

Just as the old patriarch was thinking about how to solve the problem in front of him, Zhu Yuanyuan suddenly changed his mind, "It's okay to leave it to you to try the seeds, but I want to participate in it, and you can't stop me from doing experiments." ”

"What is an experiment?" Zhu He asked if he didn't understand.

Zhu Yuanyuan thought for a while and was careful with his wording, "I mean we don't have experience in planting sweet potatoes, and we don't know how to breed and promote seedlings. ”

Zhu He frowned, "You can't use the method of growing potatoes?" ”

"You can try," Zhu Yuanyuan, of course, would not give a negative answer, "It's just that potatoes and sweet potatoes are not the same kind of fruit, and the planting method is not necessarily the same, I want to try a few more to find out the most suitable one." ”

"That's quite a strange thing you say," Zhu He thought for a while and decisively decided, "Just do what you say!" ”

Potatoes and sweet potatoes are Zhu Yuanyuan's things, she can grow potatoes with toss, and it is no problem to grow sweet potatoes if she wants to.

Not only did the old patriarch think so, but the other orcs present all had the same idea, and they all said, "Yuanyuan, you can plant whatever you want, we will listen to you." ”

A group of old orcs who were still quite strong looked at Zhu Yuanyuan with blank eyes, which made her feel quite stressed, and she actually regretted taking the initiative to ask for help just now.

The words had already been spoken, and it was too late to regret it, so she could only stand upright and promise in fairy tales, "Rest assured, elders, I will definitely grow sweet potatoes as soon as possible, if I can't grow them......"

At this point, he paused for a few seconds, pouted, and said, "If I find new food in the future, I will give it directly to the patriarch." ”

The old patriarch was very cunning and always coaxed the cubs, so she didn't buy it.

"Okay," Zhu He didn't mind, he stroked his beard happily, "Yuanyuan is considerate, I'm old, I should rest more." ”

Zhu Yuanyuan secretly made a mistake, and the old patriarch abdicated directly after losing his left arm, thinking that he was not a person who cherished authority, what she said was pure nonsense.

"It's so hot, I want to go home and drink saliva," Zhu Yuanyuan unloaded the basket and poured the sweet potato on the ground, "The seeds have been handed over to you, the old patriarch, take good care of them, but don't eat them greedily." ”

Zhu He nodded, "Okay, I definitely won't steal food." ”

The old patriarchs in Zhu Yuanyuan's impression are all serious and old-fashioned, how can they be as lively as they are now.

I was speechless for a while, and then I couldn't help laughing, "I'll leave the matter of turning over the ground to the elders, see you tomorrow." ”

After saying goodbye, he didn't delay anymore, and left with an empty basket on his back.

When Zhu Yuanyuan arrived home, she found that the eldest brother who had been called by the patriarch had come back before her, and was packing a piece of soft sheepskin to salute.

Is this the rhythm of going out of the house?

Her family didn't need to play false, she simply asked, "Big brother, where are you going?" ”

"Go to the beach," Zhu Yongyong didn't hide, "There isn't much salt left in the tribe, it can't last the snow season, and it just so happens that the Flying Tiger Clan is also going to buy salt, so they make an appointment to go together, and they can help each other on the way." ”

"And how many days are you going out?"

"It's hard to say," Zhu Yongyong thought for a while, "it will take at least a month, and it will take a lot of time just to travel, and on the way, you have to hunt some prey to bring in exchange."

Zhu Yuanyuan was stunned when he heard this, "It turns out that I have to exchange the prey." ”

Zhu Yongyong couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, "Of course, salt is very precious, and it is impossible for us to take it for nothing." ”

"No, salt is not just available by boiling dried seawater in a cauldron," Zhu Yuanyuan blurted out, and when he realized that he had said the wrong thing, he hurriedly patched it, "I heard someone say it when I was digging sweet potatoes in the forest." ”

Zhu Yongyong knew that sweet potatoes were a new food that his sister had just discovered today, and he didn't dare to think about the saying that boiling dried seawater could have salt.

If you could really boil salt, it would be so difficult for everyone to change the salt.

After sitting for a long time, Zhu Yongyong threw away the packed animal skin baggage and stammered, "I'll go to the patriarch to discuss." ”
