Immediately, Song Xuan demonstrated again, picked up a piece of meat from the plate, and stuffed it into his mouth with rice:

"It's not light to eat like this, eat rice and meat together!"

"Hey, really!"

"It doesn't seem like even the meat is salty anymore!"

……

After there is no shortage of salt in the tribe, everyone will not be as economical in handling meat as before, and if you put a little more salt, it will naturally be easier to put it away, especially when the weather is hot.

Although the meat is preserved, it doesn't taste so good, and a whole piece of salted meat is not comfortable to eat, at least not as good as fresh.

Now that there is rice, it directly makes the two perfectly matched, so that the rice does not look bland, and the marinated meat is not as salty as before.

However, there is not much rice in everyone's bowl, like Shi Meng, who has a big belly and mouth, he finished pulling it in two or three bites, smashed his mouth, and seemed to be still unsatisfied, and walked over with the bowl again.

When Song Xuan cooked for them, he knew that this amount was definitely not enough for them to eat, but now there was almost nothing left in the pot, and Song Xuan still scraped the pot clean.

However, the pot of porridge before didn't move much, Song Xuan pointed to the porridge and said:

"Go, hit that!"

But Shi Meng didn't seem to be interested in Bai Huahua's porridge, and said to Song Xuan at the bottom of the pot:

"Divine Messenger, isn't there still one?"

This pot was originally a small gift left by Song Xuan for himself, although the rice tasted very good, but the pot cooked in this clay pot did have a unique flavor, especially although it was the first time to cook, but it was not a little burnt, but at this time, seeing that Shi Meng was interested, he had to break a little bit and hand it to him:

"Taste~"

Looking at the pot in his hand, which was only enough to stuff his teeth, Shi Meng pursed his lips, as if he was complaining about Song Xuan's stinginess, but he still stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it all at once.

Although the pot that has just come out of the pot is not completely crispy, it is also "crunchy" when chewed, and Shi Meng's eyes widened suddenly.

"Hmmm! Divine Messenger, this is delicious! ”

"Incense!"

As he spoke, he shoveled a large piece from the pot and put it in his bowl, Song Xuan didn't say much when he saw this, as long as he was interested, at least for now, it seems that everyone is not resistant to rice and porridge, and the evaluations given by a few people who have tasted the porridge are also quite good.

Especially after eating a bowl of porridge, my body quickly warmed up, and I even sweated slightly in the room.

"What about you, I'm ...... Gruel...... It's not bad to eat."

"Really? Let me taste it too."

……

Everyone was eating for the first time, so they were exchanging their feelings while eating, and Song Xuan was not ready to directly challenge the status of meat, so most people were relatively easy to accept.

"Divine envoy, is there really no need to hunt in the future!"

Chewing the crunchy pot, Shi Meng finally remembered the cake that Song Xuan had drawn for her before, and thought that the divine envoy was fooling him, but now after tasting it, he realized that what Song Xuan said didn't seem to be wrong at all, although it was the first time to eat it, he had completely accepted it, and there was a feeling that he hadn't eaten enough.

The breeding industry in the tribe has also been growing and developing, and maybe one day, the Teng snake really doesn't have to burrow into the mountains, and there is enough food to eat.

"Well, but you can't hunt at all!"

After all, the mountains and forests are rich in resources, and it is a greater waste to keep the treasure house in use, at least for now, breeding is not as efficient as hunting.

If you want to meet the consumption of hundreds of people by breeding alone, the scale must be quite terrifying, but with rice and farming, the demand for hunting will be greatly reduced.

As long as the scale is formed, Shi Meng and they don't have to go into the mountains for many years like this, and when it is not so easy to hunt, they can just come back.

But what is certain is that it will be difficult to go hungry in the future.

After eating the last three pots, they were all cleaned by everyone.

Looking at everyone's appearance, Song Xuan had no choice but to promise everyone that he would continue to eat tomorrow.

Scooping so much rice, naturally not one can be eaten at once, don't look at the cooking a lot today, but it is less than half of the appearance, the rest is used to cook rice, it is estimated that it can be cooked in three pots, but if you cook porridge, let everyone let go of eating is not a problem.

Although the meal had been eaten, everyone still sat around and imagined, especially when they thought of the opposite side of the tribe, which had now been cleaned up such a large piece of land.

If it were to grow rice in its entirety, it would be a large scale, although the rice was not very delicious, but it was definitely not unpalatable, at least it was easy to fill the stomach with meat, and the process of eating it was relatively enjoyable.

Most of the people in the tribe have gone through the process of planting and harvesting rice, which is not easy, but it is far easier than going out to hunt.

However, if you want rice to become a staple food, it will take at least a year to do it, and it will take at least half a year to mature if you plant it every year.

After eating the rice, most people understood Song Xuan's previous behavior, so it was no wonder that they were willing to exchange seeds with pottery and salt for other tribes.

Especially Shui Yun still had a feeling that he had lost a lot of money for a moment, after all, this thing was first discovered in their tribe at the beginning, and it was pointed out by Song Xuan, not to mention the importance of it, and he took the initiative to find a lot of it later.

But when I see that I am now a snake person, it seems that I am not so lost, and I am not also eating.

Song Xuan was quite satisfied with everyone's reaction, and at first he was worried that everyone was a little unacceptable, so he got a lot of meat, but in the end, the rice was a little not enough to eat.

As long as everyone does not resist, there will be more motivation to work on rice in the future, especially next year's reclamation and planting, which are quite large-scale things, but it is not something that Song Xuan can finish with a dozen people, and hundreds of acres of land need to be mobilized by the entire tribe in order to be completed in a short time.

It is estimated that it will take more than half a month to reclaim those lands.

At present, rice has become the staple food of the tribe, and it should be realized in this year or two, at least as long as it goes well, next year's batch of rice will be planted, and the recovered grain should be able to meet everyone's daily consumption.

Of course, the accurate premise must be that the wind and rain are smooth, even in primitive societies, natural disasters are also a common thing, like last year's heavy rain, in the face of the surrounding tribes have caused a lot of impact, as for the drought, although it does not happen much, but according to Shui Wu, he has also experienced it in his life.

As the eldest person in the tribe, the Water Witch naturally experienced more than the others, but since the Blackwater tribe had always settled on both sides of the river, the drought actually did not affect them much, at least for so many years, the river did not stop flowing due to the long period of no rain.

So for him, the drought was just a slight impression, and because the river had become shallower, fishing had become relatively easier, and it was precisely because of this that the Blackwater tribe had a better year than usual, which made him remember it.

It is also true that as long as it is not an extreme drought, the floods have a more profound impact on the tribes on both sides of the river.

The same is true for rice planting, it is not so easy for the river to cut off, as long as you are prepared, think about it, if it is not an extreme drought, although the impact will be there, but it will not be particularly large, but the flood is different, everyone clearly feels, in recent years there has been more rain, the weather has become colder.

Therefore, what we need to worry about is the problem of too much rain, but although the expanded rice fields are also in the river, the terrain is even higher than the current level of the tribe, and it is definitely not so easy to flood to this extent.

……………………

Later, Song Xuan cooked porridge twice, and everyone was very welcome to this, the only slot was that the amount was too little, even if it was cooking porridge, everyone would only have a small bowl.

Song Xuan also knew that this was definitely not enough for everyone to eat, but the rest could not be messed up, it still had to be used as seeds, and now it was just for everyone to taste in advance.

"Oracle, when is the next time you eat?"

Looking at some of the children who were still unsatisfied, Song Xuan couldn't refuse directly, so he could only promise them to do it again after the beginning of spring, but although they didn't eat enough, the children were still very sensible and knew that these rice were kept for seeding.

"If it's not enough, forget it, the leader says that there will be endless rice to eat next year!"

Some dotingly rubbed Shi Feng's head, Shi Feng is relatively stable in this group of children, although he is not very old, just ten years old, but his style of acting has the demeanor of a little adult.

Now in the whole tribe, even the children only know that the tribe will plant rice on a large scale next year, and they are all interested in preparing for planting.

At least in the past, Song Xuan said what he needed, so he would get it again, but now he has begun to ask Song Xuan in advance, and then started to prepare, Song Xuan did not dampen everyone's enthusiasm, and said all the farm tools such as hoes and sickles.

These can be made in advance while the time is not tight, especially the sickle, harvesting rice is still very useful, before the scale is small, with the kind of small stone knife in the hand, although it is convenient to do, but the efficiency is not very good, especially a large number of straw can not be used, and finally can only be burned as fertilizer for the next year.
