Through the wild age

Lanjia finally made the boots this winter. Although they look a bit stupid, they look like rain boots, but they are very warm to wear, and there is a layer of rabbit down inside the shoes.Finally, she no longer needed to wear tattered cloth shoes, and Chen Qiao held the boots with tears in her eyes.

He ordered a pair for everyone in the family, and everyone in the tribe was still barefoot, Chen Qiao felt that he was not being kind.But forget it, let's take it as the patriarch's family's welfare. At this time, he doesn't want to carry forward Kong Rong's virtue of humility.In fact, in this barbaric age, virtues and so on have not had time to accumulate and take shape, and everyone is still in the stage of self-consciousness.

When the cold wind hits, Chen Qiao prepares Dila's favorite jumpsuit.Because Dilla doesn't like sports very much, he usually stays at home and works. The one-piece suit is very convenient. He can wear it to work during the day and move around freely. At night, he will sleep when he is tired. Sometimes he forgets to cover the quilt.

Before going out, Chen Qiao dragged her to put on a rabbit down hat and put on the boots that she had just brought home.The whole body is wrapped tightly, even if the cold wind is blowing at the beach, there is no need to worry about catching a cold.

People these days don't get sick very often, but once they do, even a small cold can be fatal.

After a while, Macy also went out bouncing around. Because this kid was too active, he no longer wore jumpsuits when he went out, but he still had to wear warm boots and a hat. Well, he felt a little too warm.

There seemed to be a lot of people going to the beach that day, not only the working men, but also the members of the fishing boats like Maixi, and even a few young daughters-in-law from the tribe. A few women stood aside and talked about it. Watching them work carefully, there will be bursts of hearty and crisp laughter from time to time.And those girls who haven't grown up yet, walk up and down the beach frequently, come in twos and threes, and then walk over laughingly, so repeatedly, never tired of it.

Dilla, who was working hard, didn't notice anything unusual. It wasn't until the noon break that she felt that there seemed to be a lot of people on the beach today.When Chen Qiao brought them food, she sneaked two extra glances at the unknown eldest son, and the corner of her mouth twitched a little. How rough can this kid be?

"Don't you feel that everyone is coming to the beach today?" Dila might have thought that he was the only one who discovered the anomaly.

"Yeah, there are a lot of people." Macy gobbled it up. He was just growing up and had a strong appetite.

"What do you think so many people are doing at the beach?" Dila quickly grabbed two pieces of meat and put them in her bowl. After a while, there might be no soup left.

"Oh, they said that your outfit today is quite special, so let's all come and see it." Mai Xi didn't quite understand this point, since he wore this dress since he was a child, he didn't think there was anything special about it, did he?

"..." Dila was chewing the rice, while secretly observing everyone's decorations, it seemed that he was a little different...

The afternoon seemed to pass very slowly, and Dila always felt that the sharp edge was on her back, and the whispers seemed to become a lot harsher all of a sudden. Facing the group of women, big and small, Dila's ears finally turned red.

As soon as the day's work was over, Dila hurried home faster than anyone else.

At dinner that day, Dila said seriously to Chen Qiao: "I will never go out in this dress again."

Chen Qiao felt a little regretful. His son had grown up, and the cute nagging child had grown into a shy boy...

Before the spring came, everyone finally came together to build the main part of the ship. It is still an empty shell and they have to add many parts to it.The carpentry part can be done slowly by Dila himself, but some parts such as gears, anchors, etc. need a lot of iron ore to be cast.

There are very few exposed natural ores. In the past few years, the tribe has cast a lot of production tools, daily necessities and weapons. The iron ore near the stream has been almost consumed by them.Now if they want to find enough iron ore, they have to go to the mountains upstream of the creek, and it has become very difficult to find iron ore.

Everyone found that there should be relatively rich iron ore resources in that mountain, so they excavated there.

Chen Qiao felt that it was not an option to continue digging in such a casual way, and there would be a landslide one day.He asked everyone to use wooden frames to support the mine tunnel. Although he didn't know how effective it would be, and the operation was time-consuming and labor-intensive, but safety came first, and the efforts that should be spent should not be cut corners.

As the mine tunnel got deeper and deeper, it became more and more difficult to move earth and rocks. Finally, we had to consider laying tracks in the mine tunnel, but this required more iron ore. Basically, the iron ore they got now was used in above the cast iron rails.Fortunately, these rails are detachable. After these mines are abandoned, the rails can be removed and reused.

When spring came, they had to go back to the fields to sow seeds, and the work in the mine had to be put aside temporarily, and everyone would come back to work again when the farming was slack.

This year, they no longer just plant taro and corn, as well as some wild vegetables dug from the mountains.They have more choices. Rice and wheat are naturally the most popular, because they are rations that can fill their stomachs. Everyone also grows some vegetables, melons and fruits, so that they can save their own seeds in the future.

Because Baya had planted it the previous year, he has become an agricultural expert in the tribe this year, and everyone should ask him first about everything big or small.For example, how to grow seedlings, when to divide the plants, whether to plant in wetlands or dry lands, which crops are suitable for which soil, and so on.There are also how to match the base fertilizer, when to top-dress and so on.

When the spring sowing was over, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone went home to take a shower, eat well, and then had a good night's sleep. They didn't want to get up until their bones were soft.The men are going to work in the mine again after resting at both ends, and these two days are particularly precious.

Baya did not rest, he took advantage of these two days to open a small piece of sand by the stream, Chen Qiao said he likes to eat watermelon, and he wanted to plant a piece of watermelon here.

They built a bamboo frame in their yard, dug two vines from the mountain and planted them. They can pick grapes in their yard this summer.

There are also a few pumpkins and winter melons planted in the corner of the wall, and the vines of loofah are also terribly high along the wall. These vegetables are planted next to the pigsty, and they are all nourished by the wild boars raised in captivity. Of course, there are also those small pigs. Credit to the chicken.But no one thinks that the crops are grown from fertilizers.

Spring is a season full of hope. Everyone sees green patches everywhere, and melons and fruits are blooming. The red, white and white flowers are very enjoyable to look at. Thinking about how to fry this one and how to eat that one after they mature, The days passed quite quickly.
