Chapter 023: A bet with Shi Song
After the fruits were cut and dried into dried fruits, everyone looked at Jiang Heng again, expecting him to share the konjac tofu method.
"Come with me, and I'll explain it to you."
Jiang Heng returned home, took a konjac out, and demonstrated it in public.
"The production of konjac tofu is very simple, first remove the konjac skin, then find a rough stone or other tool, and grind the konjac into a puree.
Then add the water I prepared for everyone, stir it and let it sit for half an hour.
Boil water in a pot, put in konjac tofu and cook for half an hour, that is, white, then change the water and boil for forty minutes, and finally soak it in cold water for one night to eat. ”
Jiang Heng demonstrated to everyone while doing it, and said that he would supply the special alkaline water for free, and everyone could come and get it.
Primitive man has not yet formed a concept of time, there is no corona, and the time that Jiang Heng said can only be explained in other ways.
For example, half an hour is the time to finish burning a 30-centimeter-long piece of firewood, and 40 minutes is a longer piece of firewood.
He didn't have time to help the primitive people build the concept of time now, and there were too many places where he was needed.
The people of the tribe were even happier when they heard that Jiang Heng was willing to give out alkaline water for free, because now that the weather was getting drier and drier, the water would only become less and less, and Jiang Heng was willing to give it out no better.
"Thank you Jiang Heng!"
"That's right, you're so generous!"
"It's a savior for our tribe!"
The tribesmen danced and thanked Jiang Heng, and then took alkaline water from him home to test.
Jiang Heng had stored a large amount of alkaline water in the morning, and although he didn't have much water, he didn't panic at all.
There is no need to go to the crocodile python pool to fetch water, the easiest way is to dig a well.
The groundwater in this other world has not been exploited at all, and the water level should be very high, as long as you find the right place, dig five or six meters to find the groundwater.
And how to find groundwater happened to be studied in college, so he didn't care so much when Shiraishi and Kuroba suggested that he also store water.
After everyone took the alkaline water, Jiang Heng made a fire to cook, and he made a stove with yellow mud at noon today, which was very useful.
After cooking, he brought one to Wu, and rested after eating it himself.
In the blink of an eye, early the next morning, as soon as Jiang Heng woke up, a primitive person brought him konjac tofu made by himself.
"Jiang Heng, thank you, this is everyone's thank you!"
A primitive girl with a beast tooth pendant came over with a pot of konjac tofu and said, she looked at Jiang Heng's eyes and her eyes lit up, obviously she liked Jiang Heng very much.
Although Jiang Heng is not strong enough, his means of getting food are first-class, which makes him a sweet and sweet spot in the tribe.
Not only are the female primitives who are not married interested in him, but even those who are already married are frowning at him.
"Thank you!"
Jiang Heng nodded, put the things in the room, and was indifferent to the eyes of this primitive girl.
"My name is Ye, if you have something to do with me, I'll live in that room."
This primitive-man girl Ye blinked her eyes and said.
"Good!"
Jiang Heng nodded and left his door, this leaf was good but good, and the wheat complexion made her a kind of wild beauty.
But Jiang Heng was not interested in her.
"Chief, have you found the Adamantite Spear?"
Jiang Heng came to the totem square and saw that the chief was chatting with other totem warriors.
"Found it, but I can't take it for the time being, there are a lot of beasts there, I'll have to wait a few days."
Chief Black Feather nodded and said.
"Are you going out hunting?" Jiang Heng nodded and asked again.
"No, we're going to step on salt, yesterday in order to deal with the people of the Worm Tribe, all the salt in the tribe was given to them.
Didn't you say that if you want to go out and exchange supplies, you first have to collect salt. ”
Kuroba explained.
"Can you tell me how you usually step on salt?"
Jiang Heng thought for a moment and asked again.
"The salt mine is not far from the Crocodile Python Pond, under a mountain cliff where every once in a while salt forms on the stone walls, and we collect it from there.
It's just that there are many large beasts and even fierce beasts nearby, and it is very dangerous to get salt. ”
Hei Yu said slowly, yesterday he exchanged all the salt of the tribe to the Worm Tribe, but it made him feel distressed, that is the accumulation of all the tribes.
"Well, then you take me, and I can get salt without going to the stone wall, and the quality is better than what you have taken before."
When Jiang Heng heard this, he immediately said that the method of these primitive people to obtain salt was indeed the same as he imagined, very primitive.
They will only take the coarse salt that is naturally precipitated, and will not purify it at all.
"You say you don't have to go to the stone wall to get salt? Is it better than the salt we used to take? ”
It was Shi Song who spoke, and he sneered: "It's still useful for you to find food, but don't mix it with things like finding salt."
I've been taking salt for several years, I don't know how to take it? ”
"Yes, except for the stone wall, there is no salt at all, only salty soil."
Several other totem warriors also chimed in, saying that it was precisely because they knew very well about taking salt that they felt that Jiang Heng was talking big again.
Salt can't be conjured out of thin air, and if you don't take it from the stone wall, can you still conjure it?
Even Hei Yu felt that what Jiang Heng said was a bit exaggerated this time, and said with a smile: "It's dangerous over there, don't go, help in the tribe." ”
"It seems that you don't believe me, so let's make a bet, what if I don't get salt without going to the stone wall?"
Jiang Heng smiled, and did not bother with these primitive people, but made a bet.
Sometimes, the more ignorant people are, the more determined they become, and these primitive people don't know how to extract salt, so they naturally won't believe what he says.
"Hehe, that's what you said, if you lose, you'll have to come up with the method of making alkaline water and plant fertilizer for free."
Hearing Jiang Heng's words, Shi Song suddenly became interested, and said with a smile.
He wanted to see how Jiang Heng could conjure salt for him out of thin air.
"Okay, but what if you lose?"
Jiang Heng didn't care either, and said with a smile, whether it was fertilizer or alkaline water production method, he was ready to announce it, but it was not time yet.
"If I lose, I'll listen to you as your slave in the future, and I'll do whatever you want?"
Shi Song said arrogantly, with contempt in his eyes, and the reason why he dared to do this was because he had full confidence in himself.
He was familiar with the salt mine, except for the stone wall, there was no salt at all, and what Jiang Heng said was still not dangerous, and the quality of the salt they had taken was better than that of the past.
"It's okay to be a slave, you can do three things for me."
Jiang Heng waved his hand and said with a smile.
"I said that if I was a slave, I would be a slave, and I would not go back. Since you are so confident, let's go, and I want to see what you have to do. ”
Shi Song said immediately, not thinking that he would lose at all.
"Let's go!"
Hei Yu thought about it and didn't interrupt the bet between the two, he thought it would be good, but he vaguely felt that Jiang Heng would win, because this person was too confident.
There is also the fertilizer he applied before, and in just a few days, the heart fruit and white vine fruit plants have stopped yellowing and have begun to turn green.
