Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is the autumn after the merger, that is, in July 1963 of the beast calendar.

There is no solar and lunar calendar in this world, there are only 12 months in a year, and there are only 30 days in a month, regardless of the size of the month.

That is, there are only 360 days in a year.

Spring is from January to March, summer from April to June, autumn from July to September, and snow from October to December.

Zhu Yuanyuan first heard that this time division was quite strange, is such a simple and crude division really accurate? What if it doesn't snow on the first day of the season, or if the snow doesn't stop on the last day, and it just goes down to spring?

Zhu A-Niang said at the time, "No, the snow season does not mean that it snows for three months in a row, sometimes it will fall a few days later, and there are also postponement and stoppage of snow, but such cases are rare."

As long as you don't go to the far north, you won't be able to meet it.

Anyway, there are too few measures to keep warm, and it is difficult to survive in the extreme north with only firewood and animal skins, and unless it is a hardy race, no orcs will run to settle there.

After staying for a long time, Zhu Yuanyuan felt that this was not bad, there was no need to remember the complicated solar terms, and it was suitable for people who did not like to use their brains.

Like her!

However, these are not important, the important thing is that the first crop of potatoes and sweet potatoes planted after the merger can be harvested.

In the end, the spring was delayed this year, the sowing was a little late, and the harvest was naturally late, so I was afraid that I would not be able to plant the second season, so everyone attached great importance to this autumn harvest, and almost the whole family went out to the field early in the morning.

Bai Danian gave an order, and everyone poured into the field to get busy, and in less than a day, the potatoes and sweet potatoes were put into the public storage room.

There are more people and less land, which is so efficient.

Bai Danian was very happy to see the grain piled up in the two storage rooms, "There is so much to eat, I can eat half the snow season if I save a little."

"Patriarch," Zhu Shan had to remind, "I still have to keep more seeds, otherwise what will I plant next year?"

"Ah, I almost forgot," the bright smile on Bai Danian's face shriveled a little, and he sighed for a long time, "It's too late this year, if you plant early, you can harvest it in May, and you can plant another crop in June."

"There's no way around it," Zhu Shan also regretted, but it was still good to have a harvest, and he said excitedly, "Tonight, give a few to each family, so that the rabbit beasts can also taste the taste of potatoes and sweet potatoes."

The potatoes and sweet potatoes left over from last year were divided long before the He, and only the carefully selected seeds remained, so that the rabbit orcs had only heard of these two foods and tasted very little.

It's just that he hasn't eaten it for a few months, and he misses it.

"Great," Rabbit nodded happily, "Then I'll have to taste it."

Zhu Yuanyuan was pondering, if you eat too many potatoes and sweet potatoes, you will get tired, and it's time to add new food.

Rice and wheat are all husked, which is a bit difficult to do, so it is better to grow corn.

Whether it is boiled, stir-fried, fried or dried and ground into corn flour, it can fill the stomach and taste good.

It was such a happy decision.

A few days later, Zhu Yuanyuan followed the collection team out to collect medicine, and found corn that he had seen from the beast god in a small valley.

These are ripe and unpicked corn plants that she specially bought, hundreds of which took a long time to plant, and they had to be disguised as wild, which can be said to be painstaking.

It was precisely because of the trouble that she did not hand over new food over the years.

Rabbit Yuan stared at the strangely shaped corn, "How do you eat this, can you peel off the skin and eat it directly?"

"Well, if you want to eat it raw, it's okay," Zhu Yuanyuan, a democratic person, reminded him casually, "It's also sweet when cooked, and you can also peel the grains and fry them."

Even if it's fried, everyone is too troublesome, so it's better to make roasted corn directly and brush it with a thick layer of sauce.

Sucking it up, saliva is about to run down.

"Let's go up together," Zhu Yuanyuan raised his arms and exclaimed, "Break the corn back and let the patriarch taste it, it's delicious and plant some next year."

You can grow your own food for a long time

。

Everyone responded, "Let's go, break corn~"

A swarm of bees rushed up, quickly broke the corn and threw it into the back basket, and all the corn was picked in a few minutes.

"Although the harvest in the past two days has not been large, since there is corn, let's go back early," Rabbit Yuan announced.

"Okay~" Everyone cheered, "I've been picking herbs for months, and I can't rest every day, but now I can finally catch my breath."

Thanks to the corn, thanks to the big cubs who found the corn.

It was quite surprising that the herb collection team went back to the valley in less than half a day, and the orc who was guarding the valley mouth on the right side joked, "You guys only went out and came back not long ago, but the weather is not right today?"

"No," Rabbit Yuan waved his hand and replied without concealment, "Yuanyuan found a new food called corn, saying that it was okay to see an animal eating it, and we picked it back to show the patriarchs."

"New Food!" Bai Izumi was shocked when he heard this, his eyes fell on the bamboo basket carried by everyone in the medicine picking team, and he was so excited that he couldn't speak, "Is it this yellow, yellow, green and green thing?"

"Yes, you can eat it if you peel off the skin," Rabbit Yuan laughed.

He hurried back, and he didn't think about taking one to taste for himself, he just wanted to inform everyone of the news as soon as possible.

Bai Izu was very happy, "This is a good thing, you should hurry up and tell the patriarch, by the way, the patriarch is also out of the valley, and you have to find the second patriarch or the third patriarch if you have something."

"Oh," Rabbit nodded frequently, "Let's go."

A group of more than a dozen people went to the second patriarch Zhu Shan's house, but they pounced on it, and went to the third patriarch Tuqing's house, but still didn't see anyone.

Rabbit Yuan was dazed, "Why aren't you there?"

In order to make it easier for everyone to find someone, the three patriarchs all live in a cave near the mouth of the valley on the right, and someone stays at home every day, but today they can't find one.

"Will it be in the pantry?" Zhu Yuanyuan guessed blindly.

Seeing so many potatoes and sweet potatoes, the patriarchs were so excited that they were very likely to stay in the storage room and were reluctant to move.

Rabbit Yuan was awakened, "Yes, yes, yes, they must be there."

So he turned to the public storage room and successfully found the two patriarchs who lingered in it.

"Second Patriarch, Third Patriarch," Rabbit Yuan shouted.

"Shhhhhh Zhu Shan made a silent gesture, "We are counting this year's harvest."

Zhu Yuanyuan was curious, "How do you count?"

"Don't ask, just look at it," Zhu Shanhu grimaced, "Don't disturb us."

"Okay~" Zhu Yuanyuan closed his mouth and carefully observed the movements of the two patriarchs with wide eyes.

The so-called tidying is to move the potatoes from the left to the right one by one, and mutter, "One, two, three......

Rabbit Qing counted from one to 10,000, and Zhu Shan wrote down with a serious face, "The ninth is 10,000."

Zhu Yuanyuan, "......" Oh my God, I have to count when I go!

However, there is no such thing as a scale in this world, and in the past, when dividing meat, it was estimated by size and weight, and potatoes and sweet potatoes were directly distributed by number, so it is normal to count them.

The two patriarchs probably also realized that this was too time-consuming and useless, so they stopped after another half an hour, and said in a shy, "What's the matter with A-Yuan?"
