Orcs through the age

By the time of the Harvest Festival, our family has already stored reserves that can survive the winter even without distribution from the clan. Of course, many families in the clan have also saved a lot.It's just that the scope of hunting has expanded from the plain on this side to the plain on the other side.

There are no tribes on the plain on the other side for the time being, so there is no turf grabbing.The downstream aquarium prefers the fish in the water. Although we have begun to eat fish now, it has not yet threatened them.And they also understand that since we merged with the Xing clan, they are definitely not able to deal with them. Since we don't bother them, they will just stay by themselves.Although I heard from Luo Lei and saw people from the Shui tribe poking around, they have already been driven back.But we don't have time to pay attention to them for the time being. I'm afraid there is nothing wrong with them, as long as we do a good job of monitoring them.But from the perspective of development, I still think that we need to think about the long-term.

Our current population is increasing, and the demand for things is increasing every day, and the food nearby is limited.It takes about three years for a cow to grow into a cow, and it takes three years for a female to start giving birth. Only one calf can be born each time, and the survival rate is not necessarily guaranteed.Even if we pay more attention to hunting, it is impossible to hunt only bulls and not cows and calves. This cycle itself is too slow.The same is true of other animals.

We need to breed animals, not to shorten this cycle, but to increase the survival rate and maximize the fertility rate of a group.Of course, I also know that the result of inbreeding is likely to be degeneration, but this is beyond the current situation.

Otherwise, when we need more food, when hunting is not enough, and we don't want to move, the mere fact of eating fish may make downstream aquarists want to do something.Although they only poke their heads now and then.But if it continues, it is estimated that they will explode!

Because there was a lot of harvest this year, and new tribesmen joined in, there were also a lot of sacrifices in the harvest festival. Asking God to give us more food is like thanking God for giving us so much food.

After the harvest festival, it was time to harvest potatoes, sweet potatoes, etc. In addition to leading the females in the clan to harvest the ones shared by the clan, I also spent some time at home with Rona to harvest the potatoes and sweet potatoes grown at home. The sweet potatoes were collected in the cellar that Rona and I dug, and the other part was made in the evening to make sweet potato vermicelli and potato vermicelli.Although Luo Na is less than ten years old, as a clan, he is still much better than me, and he is largely responsible for digging the cellar.

We harvested about 500 catties of sweet potatoes and potatoes each. In addition to giving half of each to the clan for distribution to other people, we actually stored about 1000 catties of sweet potatoes and potatoes each, leaving a total of more than 100 catties of seeds. Quite a lot, the remaining [-] catties made more than [-] catties of starch. I packed them in sealed earthenware pots and planned to save them for winter to make vermicelli and soup. I'm not used to it, but after a few days, I still started to call Luo Lei and me "Abba" and "Ama". He also worked very hard, as long as I called him, he would try his best to do everything, but he had to take Ah with him everywhere. Rui.

A Rui may have his own father when he was a child, so when we taught him to call Luo Lei "Abba", he was a little confused, but he was willing to call me "Ah Mo", and he was very close to me, and had to sleep at night Also look at me first, and of course I will kiss him.Maybe once I saw Luo Lei kissing me, he also likes to kiss his forehead, and he would ask me to kiss him and my brother too. Of course, Rona and I would kiss each other on the forehead, and Ari would be very happy.It's just that Ari is a little unfamiliar with Luo Lei.Until now, the two little ghosts are not too close to Luo Lei.Obviously Luo Lei is not bad!Although, after he became the patriarch, I feel quite bored, as expected, someone else should be the patriarch, right?I really miss the days when there was an old patriarch, I could order Luo Lei to do this and that, but now, he is ordered by others, it annoys me to death!

Compared with the relationship between me and the two children, Roy is a little pitiful, Rona is okay, maybe because it is Abba teaching these males how to do things here, although Rona can't fly, Roy can still teach him Some hunting things, so Rona is still willing to do things with Roy most of the time.Ari, who is mainly taken care of by me, never gets close to him.It caused Luo Lei to tell me behind my back several times at night how the children of the Beiluo family made out with Beiluo, would come to see my father off when I went out, and would run over to kiss my father when I got home.

I'm wondering if he's blown away and wants a child of his own?Then tell him very seriously, even if you have your own children, you should raise them well!No, it should be said that if you have your own children, you must take care of the adopted children and pay attention to their psychology, etc., it will be very tiring!If there is another child, how to raise it in the current chaotic situation is a big problem.Now that he and I are very busy, it is not easy to raise a child well, so I can't leave it to Rona again... Well, I won't admit that this is an excuse I used to change the subject again. (Luo Lei: Even so, I still want my child with Arnold...)

I used to think that if I have children, I must give them a lot of love, whether they are outstanding or not, I must love and take care of them.In fact, during the time they came to our house, apart from providing them with food, clothing and shelter, I hardly worried about them.But I think they should pay more attention to their thoughts, especially Rona who has grown up.

I also harvested a lot of pumpkins and peppers that I grew at home, and of course I ate a lot at first. Rona and Ari are not bad at eating peppers, especially Ari. Does it mean that eating peppers should be cultivated from an early age?Luo Lei refused to eat it, probably because the shadow I played on him before was too deep, and he showed a physiological disgust when he saw chili peppers.But occasionally I put some chili powder in the barbecue, and he can still eat it, but he can't let him see that the chili is put on it...

We also sent a lot of pumpkins and peppers to the people in the family to eat together. Some people like to eat peppers, some don't, but pumpkins are still loved by most people.We pick pumpkins and peppers as we eat them. I put them on the shelf at home when they are too old to be harvested. I plan to eat them slowly, and some of them are left with seeds.

Both rapeseed and cotton are planted in a rough sowing method, and there is little management, and I don’t know if the planting method is correct. Although the things here generally grow much larger than my impression, each There are more than half an mu of rapeseed and cotton, but each harvested less than [-] catties. Soybeans did not have many seeds, so they harvested less than [-] catties. Saved a lot of things for Rona.He seemed more than happy with that, too.

I asked Rona and Ari to keep these things at home and dry them, while also going outside to collect flax, ramie, wild cotton, rapeseed and so on.The clan already has some recognition for most of my private things, and even if I take them out, they don't know what to do if I don't teach them.I still have the concept of private ownership first, and then think about public ownership. This is something I can't change.But I also told the high priest and other people in the clan that after my experiment is successful, I will slowly teach you how to make these things. Anyway, I will make more varieties in the future. The so-called business is that no one has what I have. , I am new to others, as long as there is something in my mind, I am not afraid.So everyone turned a blind eye and asked me to take all those things home.

I harvested a lot of flax, ramie, cotton, soybeans and rapeseed. Of course, I also asked everyone to harvest cotton, soybeans and rapeseed. Rapeseed was used to extract oil, and soybeans were used to cook meat and bone soup. It's better that everyone has eaten fried noodles again.However, everyone is obviously not very enthusiastic about inedible things like cotton, and they have collected some sporadically, but there are not many, and everyone is required to spin and weave. We don’t have much time now, so we still collect some. Female and child for me.

The cotton here is already scattered, and I can't help it, and the cotton is not edible. For those who are not full here, animal skins are better than cotton.Therefore, even if we want to grow cotton in the future, we still need to let everyone see the actual benefits when they are full.But for me, the animal skin is not breathable, so it is not as comfortable as cotton cloth. Although the quality of the cotton cloth I weave is only average, it is at least fiber.I was also thinking that maybe I could try to make two quilts in winter, and I could also make two small cotton jackets for Rona and Ari.These two little guys are sometimes well-behaved and make me feel pitiful.Rona does things with his head down. Although Ari is still a little naughty, he has learned to do his best to help with things. Sometimes when I am doing things, Ari will bring me water to drink.Maybe that's the upside of having kids?

Considering the whole family, I think that we may not consider cotton and flax until we have completely solved the problem of food.But this year, there are rapeseed and tung oil seeds I harvested, which is probably enough for me to toss for a long time.I also collected a lot of cabbage seeds and loofah seeds and plan to plant them in the spring. If the land at home is not enough, I may have to open the land on the plain.At that time, I was thinking that one day I would live on the plains, but it was ten years later that I actually realized it.

Because I have to be in charge of the rapeseed oil extraction in the clan, the livestock raised in the clan has grown to seven calves, sixteen sheep, more than 20 piglets and more than 300 animals of different sizes. One rabbit (this does not include the ones that have been eaten, the reproduction rate of rabbits is really amazing), there are also three cows, six sheep, seven pigs, 32 rabbits, nine wild ducks, eight wild geese, There are five turkeys, and I am very busy just organizing the family to cut grass and preparing hay at home.

Luo Lei is also unreliable. He is responsible for hunting and making living tools in the clan, and is occasionally sent out by me to hunt or something.So the 200-jin cotton picking cottonseed can only be done by Rona and Ari at home.

Fortunately, both of them are sensible, even the little A Rui moved a small wooden stool and sat next to his brother to help "picking out the black seeds from the white flowers, throwing the white flowers in a pile, and throwing the seeds in the basket" .In fact, I am really worried that they will grow up before I have time to care about them.So no matter how busy I am, I try to talk to them before they go to bed.

The so-called talking to the children, most of the time it was Ari and I who said something like "For example, Ari has a lamb, this sheep has grown up and has two lambs, and the two lambs have grown up and have their own. I gave birth to two lambs, how many sheep does Ari have in total" or talk about what they have seen and heard today, of course Ari talked a lot, and Rona listened quietly, occasionally adding a few words.But in this way, it also makes me at least feel at ease in my heart, at least I can comfort myself, I have tried my best to do my duty for them.

Squeeze rapeseed for oil, and deal with the harvest, save what should be planted, grind the wheat into flour, and prepare a lot of hay and firewood. It will be winter soon. What can be done this year? It's also very good, there is no way, after all, there are only so many hours in a day.As for tung oil seeds, although I made some tung oil, I don't know how effective it is. I asked Luo Lei to paint a layer on the roof. As for the effect, I will wait until I use it. I am not very familiar with this industry. It's just something that's been mentioned in the book.When the books are used, I hate the few. In the past, I thought those books on agronomy were very boring. Now that I think about it, I really should have read more at that time.

When I was free in winter, I first made a six-sided, three-meter-long and two-meter-wide coarse gauze cloth with sun-dried flax and ramie, and spun some coarse sand, and then started to weave it in the yard according to the method I remembered. Of course, I can't say I'm good at bouncing cotton, but I just remember that old craftsmen in my hometown did it this way.After a whole day of hard work, although the work was not very good, Luo Lei and I managed to make two beds of cotton tires with a length of about 1.8 meters and a width of about [-] meters. Better than me, so I also have to admit that people are talented.

In the next few days, I asked Luo Lei to make two cotton tires with a length of 1.9 meters and a width of 1.4 meters. Na watching), while spinning six sides of cotton cloth three meters long and two meters wide.With the quilt made by Luo Lei, two quilts measuring 1.8 meters long and 1.9 meters wide were sewn with cotton cloth on one side and buffalo leather on the other, and two small quilts 1.4 meters long and [-] meters wide were sewn together. quilt.I plan to give one of the two long quilts to Luo Lei and one to myself. In winter, it is better to sleep on a quilt for each. It is not easy to grab the quilt and sleep more comfortably.One of the two short quilts was given to Rona and the other to Ari.

Now I don't intend to let everyone know the usefulness of cotton. After all, the amount of cotton is not enough now, and we don't have time to grow cotton.I plan to wait for everyone's life to be stable and grow enough food before I consider planting cotton for heating. Therefore, the leather jackets I made for a family of four were wool on one side and cowhide on the other, and stuffed inside. The popped cotton looks like an animal fur jacket, but it is much warmer than a single-layered animal fur jacket. After putting it on, A Rui was very happy. He came to Luo Lei and me to show us his new fur coat. Although Rona didn't say anything, he had worn the animal fur coat for a long time, and he was reluctant to wear the other one.Luo Lei and I each made one last year, but this year we just made one more.

After de-seeding all the cotton, except for making quilts and padded jackets, I spun the rest into cotton cloth, and I also spent time spinning flax and ramie.Cotton cloth was used to make several sets of underwear, while linen and ramie cloth were used to make robes, which can be worn as underwear in winter and clothes in summer, and it is always uncomfortable to wear animal skins directly on the body.I thought about spreading more flax and ramie seeds next spring, and opening a few plots specially, plus the wild ones on the grassland, so that in winter, I should be able to teach the tribe to weave.There was also some flax. I asked Luo Lei to twist it into a rope, and made a large net and two fishing nets. The large net made by Luo Lei was very strong, and he had no problem sleeping on it.Sometimes I can't help but think, maybe I'm destroying the evolutionary program here, and it's hard to say.

However, I can come here because of his reason?I won't say thank you to the Space-Time Administration, maybe it's negligence... This is also a joke, I hope everyone in the Space-Time Administration doesn't mind OTZ...
