Chapter 8 The Water Crisis
After the beast tide, the Fengyan tribe would spend a few days repairing the walls, replacing the broken outer logs with new ones, and trying to lift up the collapsed Shuomai in the fields.
These wheat is a variant of wheat, the yield per mu is only about 500 catties, although the yield is low, but its advantage is that it is two crops a year, not afraid of acid rain, not afraid of severe cold, but also non-toxic!
Dried under the eaves with the skin and guts stripped and the head and claws chopped off, the meat is very sour and contains small amounts of radioactive elements and toxins, and is a common reserve food for the tribe.
There are also white snake meat, these snake meat is not poisonous, these snakes have ingested toxins and trace amounts of radioactive elements are collected into the venom glands, as long as they are handled carefully, these snake meat is nutritious and delicious.
But the disadvantage of all snake meat is that it cannot be stored for a long time, it will rot after a day or two, and if it is dried quickly, the nutrients will be lost, not to mention that it will become like plastic, no matter how you cook it.
Then in addition to a small amount of remnants, non-toxic other beast meat, the most is some big stick bones, such as mutated wild boars, black bears, wild dogs, wind wolves, etc., these mutant beasts are relatively large, and many fresh big stick bones are left after the beast tide.
These big stick bones scrape out the bone marrow, which can be used to make a pot of fresh and replenishing bone marrow soup, which will be distributed to the children in the camp and the wounds.
"If you just chop the bones and cook a few pots of soup with the bones, everyone can drink a bowl, right?" Shi Han smelled the fragrance in the pot, and then looked at the big bones that were discarded aside, and couldn't help but suggest.
"Hahaha......"
Shi Han's words caused a burst of laughter, and looking at Shi Han's confused appearance, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy asked curiously, "Brother Han, are all cooked directly from bones in your city?" ”
"Yes! I've heard it's more nutritious! Shi Han recalled that he had drunk bone broth, and it was indeed true.
"We don't have that much water!" This young man's words made Shi Han speechless for a moment.
Shi Han said with a sigh: "I'm sorry! I ......"
"Hey! What's so sorry about this! You are from the city, so naturally you don't understand the difficulties of the tribe! ”
For the next two days, the smell of meat wafted in the tribe, and Shi Han helped work by the wall, although he was very tired, but after two full sleeps, his spirit was much better than when he was at the base. The little dragon python has shrunk in the cold bed for the past few days to digest, and on the day of the beast tide, it swallowed four mountain rats of about three catties!
"Huh~" A whistle sounded, and all those who were still repairing the wall stopped what they were doing.
"Let's go! Close the door! "Everyone put down the logs and tools, quickly entered the camp and closed the door.
"What's the situation?" Shi Han also followed the wall, and saw that the group of people under the mountain had reached a few hundred meters away.
"The Black Wolf's people are here!"
The group stopped a few dozen meters away under the wall, and then a rough voice came.
"Why are you so scared? Lao Tzu is not here to rob! ”
"Hahahaha......" followed by a burst of laughter.
At this time, Su Su had already come to the wall, and she said with a cold face, "I'm afraid that you will scare the child!" ”
A strong man with muscles about two meters tall said with a smile, "So, in the tribe, men still have to be in charge!" Otherwise, the children will become timid! ”
Li Erhu also replied, "Our leader is saying that you are too ugly!" ”
"Hahaha!" There was also a burst of laughter on the wall.
"Humph!" The strong man snorted coldly, and said with a straight face, "You guys are really good at talking!" So how about we talk about the tribal merger? ”
"Dreaming!"
"Listen to me, if you don't want to merge with us, then we will merge with you too! You see, you lack men, we lack women, as long as we merge, we will listen to the big boss Su in the future, how about it? ”
"Walk slowly! I don't send it! ”
"Humph! Su Xiaoniu, I advise you to think carefully! How many more have died in the beast tide this time? You don't have many men, do you? ”
"Fart! You soft eggs who bully the soft and are afraid of the hard are also called men? With the sound of the voice, a group of people rushed to the wall.
Looking at the people who rushed to the wall with hulala, the black wolf's eyes roughly swept away, and his face became even darker, this time the Fengyan tribe didn't reduce its personnel!
His plan to take advantage of the danger of others failed, but he still said with a dark face:
"I've already said hello to Red Rock! The two of us have agreed to merge with the big boss of Hongyan! ”
"Red Rock can't represent Fengyan!"
"Really?" The black wolf dodged and took a step back, and several people pushed the wheelbarrow out, and on the wheelbarrow were buckets and bulging water bags.
The black wolf pointed to the car and said, "Here's a thousand catties of water!" Your share for the second half of the month! Red Rock has been handed over to us! ”
There was a burst of angry chatter on the wall. Su Su said in a cold voice: "Leader Lu is not afraid of losing people's hearts? ”
"Huh, human heart? We mean well! Leader Lu said that in difficult times, we must huddle together to keep warm! This is for the good of both of our tribes! ”
The black wolf sneered and continued: "To give you three minutes to think about it, Leader Lu also said that Hongyan's water has been in short supply recently, and the share is just not enough!" ”
Su Su held back his anger and said: "Since this is Fengyan's share in the second half of the month, there is the leader of Lao Hei!" I'm going to get people to prepare enough supplies! ”
The black wolf was very happy, hehe shook his head with a smile and said, "Leader Su is wrong!" This is your share after our merger, as long as we merge, water, enough! ”
The black wolf paused, and seeing that Su Su didn't answer, he sneered again before continuing:
"Leader Su has now rejected the kindness of Leader Lu and me! Let's ...... the price."
Su Su interrupted him coldly, "What ratio?" ”
The water was in his hand, and Su Su was ready to be slaughtered in her heart, but it was still beyond her expectations!
"Ten pounds for one pound!"
As soon as the black wolf's words came out, there was an uproar on the wall.
"It's too dark!"
"He's playing tricks on us sincerely!"
"It's a normal five pounds for one pound! He's going to double it! ”
……
No matter how angry the tribesmen are, as long as the water is in someone else's hands, this loss cannot be avoided. Su Su could only hold back his anger and try his best to say, "The price is not negotiable?" ”
In fact, Su Su had already planned to temporarily eat this dumb loss if he couldn't do it, and the stock in the camp was still enough.
Fortunately, this beast tide has gained a lot, and there will be no shortage of food for the time being, but more people will be arranged to go out hunting in the future!
The black wolf shook his head again and said slowly, "Leader Su, it seems that you have misunderstood!" I'm not talking about jerky! ”
The people of the Fengyan tribe immediately exploded and drew their weapons one after another!
"Gan! He's playing us! ”
"Not jerky? Do you still want scrap metal? ”
"Scrap iron for water? You want to eat fart! ”
"Get out! Don't roll Lao Tzu and shoot you! ”
"Get out!"
"Roll"
……
Su Suqiao's face was frosty, and she shouted in a hoarse voice, "Shut up!" ”
Everyone on the wall suddenly stopped talking angrily, but their eyes breathed fire, eager to go down and rob these bastards!
"Two tigers! Take Li Xuan, Wasp, and go to Room Seven to get scrap iron! Su Su shouted loudly!
"Boss! Really swap with him? ”
"What are you drinking without changing?" Su Su scolded loudly with a cold face.
"Let's go!" Li Xuan stretched out his hand and pulled Li Erhu, who was still about to speak, and left.
Su Su turned his head to the black wolf and said, "Black leader, please wait a moment, all our scrap iron is only more than two hundred catties!" Let's change twenty pounds of water first! Tomorrow! I'll go to Hongyan to find Leader Lu! ”
Shi Han was a little puzzled, there are hundreds of people in the camp, what is the difference between these twenty catties of water and not? Why does Su Su have to change?
