Chapter Twenty-Nine: Winter Fishing, Refuge of Other Tribes (Seeking Follow-up)

The snow stopped, and Su Yu walked out the door.

He has already hung up a protective shield, and he doesn't need to worry about being invaded for a month, and then he will extend the exemption period according to the actual situation.

After holding back in the house for a month, Su Yu couldn't stay anymore.

Now he doesn't have any entertainment activities, and he spends his days staring at the system mall to see if he has swiped out any good things that he can afford.

Su Yu bought a lot of things, most of which were tools for daily life.

The more valuable is a book of carpentry from beginner to master and master, with this, the tribe will be able to train more carpenters.

Like blacksmiths, carpentry also has to be trained from apprentices, which will inevitably have a problem, the training time is long, the molding speed is slow, after all, not every apprentice is a genius, most apprentices can only learn slowly.

Outside, people were clearing the snow, shovels in their hands, and some were pushing small carts.

Yes, the cycads built the wheels, worked with the carpenters of the tribe, and Su Yu gave them some inspiration.

At the end of the street, there is a small square where tribal cooks are boiling salted fish soup.

When Su Yu saw the salted fish, he didn't want to eat it. After eating salted fish for a month, some of them couldn't stand it.

Su Yu wants to eat fresh fish, but if he wants to fish in winter, he needs to break the ice on the river.

Su Yu thought of winter fishing, the big river in front of the tribe was frozen in ice, and he couldn't usually go to the big river to fish, but now he can. You know, there are already a lot of fish in that tributary, and the fish resources in this big river must be more abundant.

It's winter, and the fish you catch can be stored in this natural refrigerator for a long time.

Su Yu called Su Dachuan over.

"Winter catching?"

Su Dachuan was a little curious when he heard such an unfamiliar word.

"Winter fishing literally means fishing in winter, when the river is frozen, the ice is very thick, and people can stand on it directly, as long as they drill an ice hole in the ice and cast their nets down, they can catch fish."

"Are the fish in the river alive in winter?" Su Dachuan always thought that the river was frozen, and the fish in the water should also be frozen to death.

"The river only freezes the upper layer, and the water below is warmer than the above, and the deeper it is, the warmer the water is. The fish in the river are all down there, so they don't freeze to death so easily. When Su Yu heard his doubts, he couldn't help but smile dumbly and explained.

"Well, I see, the fish in the river won't freeze to death, they'll always be there, and if you open the ice, you can catch the fish." Su Dachuan became excited as he spoke.

He had been thinking about the fish in the river for a long time, but the river was too wide to catch a few fish with a fishing net. Those schools of fish were all in the middle of the river, and basically they would not be close to the riverbank, so Su Dachuan had no choice.

"You go and call someone, bring your nets, and go to the river." Su Yu asked him to call someone.

Su Yu remembered that winter fishing required a lot of manpower, but it was fishing with a large net of thousands of meters.

The fishing nets of my own tribe are not so exaggerated, even now with hemp rope, the largest net in the tribe is 20 meters long and wide, because I don't usually use such a large net for fishing.

They won't use nets that are too big, and can they pull the fish caught in thousands of meters of nets? The weight of the net alone is not something that a few people can move.

Su Yu led them to the middle of the river.

"Clear the snow here and make a hole here." Su Yu pointed to a place, and the clansmen with iron chisels next to him immediately went up, swept away the snow, and began to chisel on the ground.

The ice was very thick, and it took more than ten minutes to chisel through.

Soon, an ice cave with a diameter of about half a meter was dug out.

"Patriarch, what should I do now?" Su Dachuan saw that the ice cave had been dug and wanted to know what to do next.

"Put the net down, but this fishing requires skill, which requires more exploration, so you have to practice more, practice to get the truth, don't be in a hurry, learn slowly." Of course, Su Yu doesn't know how to catch in winter, but he can't do everything, and it is necessary to be the shopkeeper.

"Got it, patriarch, I must practice hard and learn how to catch winter." Su Dachuan patted his chest and said, and then immediately threw himself into fishing practice.

Su Yu nodded, this is no way, he must know that he must give some advice.

"Okay, I'll wait to eat the fish you caught today."

Su Yu encouraged them and then left.

……

As soon as he returned to the tribe, Su Xun found Su Yu and reported something.

"Patriarch, there are people from other tribes who want to join us."

"Take refuge in us? What is the reason for this? Su Yu was a little puzzled.

"Hear from them that their tribe's camp has been destroyed by the blizzard and that they are running out of food. When the snow stopped, they ran out looking for food. I didn't find the food, but I found our tribe.

Maybe the smell of our cooking drew them in. ”

"Take me to see it." Based on their words alone, Su Yu couldn't judge how they were, and he needed to take a look.

The refugees were housed on a construction site next to the tribe, where large quantities of timber were piled up.

When Su Yu came here and saw them, everyone was wearing only a thin animal skin, and there were children shivering from the cold, curled up in their mother's arms.

But there were a few bonfires lit here, and they were warming themselves by the fires.

"Patriarch, he is the patriarch of that tribe." Su Xun pointed to a person in the crowd, who was a young man with a thick beard on the sides of his chin and cheeks.

When that person saw Su Xun, he immediately stood up and took the initiative to run over.

"This is the patriarch of our tribe." Su Xun introduced Su Yu to that person.

"You, hello, I'm the patriarch of the Jiang tribe, Jiang Ziya." Jiang Ziya put his posture very low, he knew very well that since he was taking refuge, he had to put his posture right.

"Because of the blizzard, our tribe has been severely affected and there is a lack of food......

"So, we hope that you will take us in, give us a place of refuge, and we will show our worth."

"Jiang Ziya, the patriarch of the Jiang tribe, asks to take refuge in you, whether to accept it."

Seeing this system prompt, Su Yu knew that he was sincerely taking refuge.

Truth be told, he can't afford to be careless.

Su Yu chose yes, and then said, "I accept your refuge, as long as you don't betray in the future and don't do anything that harms the interests of the tribe." ”

"Thank you, Patriarch, we will not betray anything!"

Even though he knew that Su Yu would accept it, after really hearing this, he was still very excited, and he let go of the heart that he had been worried about.

"Su Xun, quickly arrange them in the vacant house, and give priority to placing the children." Su Yu commanded.

The population of the Jiang tribe was more than sixty people, and Su Yu didn't see the old man, but thinking that they were traveling a long way, the old man probably couldn't do it on the road.

"Jiang Ziya!" Su Yu called him.
