Chapter 42: Starting with Hope

 Taking advantage of the fact that there was nothing in the tribe these days, the second batch of animal skin smelting has already begun. After watching the women of the collection team dry the animal skins, Chen Chao and Yuan checked the details of the animal skins. The production method, repeating the sequence of production, watching Yuandu answer the questions one by one, he was relieved.

    I went to look at the pool where the animal skins were made before. Chen Chao was originally worried about the problem of stagnant water. Who knew he was just worried after seeing it.

    After putting it in the sun for a few days, and it was not waterproofed at the beginning, of course, if you put a row of wood next to the pool, it counts...

    In general, the water was already dry when I went to see it. I was really lucky that I was able to hold on to the completion of the animal skin production.

    Thinking of this problem, Chen Chao told Yuan again, don’t let the ingredients and the temperature be okay when the time comes, and the leather is soaking in the water in the ash pond, but it turns out that there is no water, so I don’t know what will happen. .

    Yuan nodded, and even said the gestures made Chen Chao feel relieved. He also said that he knew that he would have to wait for the pottery to be burned by the one-eyed so that he could have a lot of vegetation ashes.

    Chen Chao nodded, and Yuan was watching when the animal skin was made last time, knowing where to get the plant ash.

    In fact, the animal skin still needs to be exposed to the sun for a few days before it can be soaked in the pool, so there is no need to worry about it. And if the process of putting the ashes on the tree can't come back by himself, Yuan can preside over the overall situation, and he has been watching it last time.

    He also went to the one-eyed side to take a look. The pottery hasn't been burnt yet, but it's just a matter of today and tomorrow. Only a dozen of them were burned this time. It is estimated that Chen Chao will burn another batch of pottery pots after he leaves.

    He deliberately gave One-Eyed a soothing booster and told him that it doesn't matter if the pot is burned out. Anyway, this stuff is everywhere, and I can't guarantee how much it will burn.

    Relax, you can wait for a while, and when the basic things of our tribe are done, I will get you a bunch of pots and pans that will never break, gold, silver, red, green, whatever you choose !

    Regardless of whether One-Eyed can understand the words behind, anyway, a certain system boss speaks with high spirits and high spirits!

    flag!

    Stand it!

    Chen Chao started thinking about going out to explore a new place to live, because he paid special attention to the foot of Tianyuan Mountain when he visited the tree tribe before.

    Although Tianwu was so dark at the time, it was still bright moonlight, which really showed Chen Chao a particularly suitable place.

    The ground is full of waist-high weeds and shrubs, but the trees are sparse, and one can clearly see from the top down that it is a flat ground with a wide view.

    But because I was looking down at the time, it was not easy to determine the specific distance and size, and the sky was too dark, so many things were not so real.

    Not far away is a big river, which should be of the same origin as the small river on the mountain, but this one looks a little bigger.

    Water is good, but water is the main thing. Humans knew to live along rivers when they were not civilized, and animals would deliberately pay attention to nearby water sources. And only if there is water, can we live, we can think about the transformation of paddy fields.

    And now that you have rice seeds in your hands, you have to start thinking about planting.

    Rice is something, especially the environment, otherwise Chen Chao would not find it in the swamp, but can find it on the land.

    After all, rice is not like wheat, so you can live without picking the ground. Rice still has certain requirements for the planting environment and sowing methods.

    Although it is troublesome to grow rice, this thing is highly productive!

    Chen Chao checked, and according to previous information, the yield per mu of rice is generally about 1,000 to 1,200 kg per mu. Although I don’t know the yield here, I believe it will certainly not be much less.

    The day before departure, Chen Chao told Yuan He Wu about his plan. Both Yuan and Wu were very supportive, especially Chen Chao told them that the place now is too small, and the new residence must have a place for the tribe. Everyone builds houses and there are high walls so that no beast can attack us again.

    Of course, you must add gestures when speaking, but the little old man with the horns only understood one sentence, that is, there is a house to live in.

    Yuan's focus is on the high walls, which can withstand the attacks of beasts.

    No matter where he starts, Chen Chao's purpose for this exploration is good.

    Yuan gestured to let Chen Chao go without worry, he would take charge of the tanning of animal skins and other things in the tribe.

    Chen Chaoyue specially asked a little old man with horns on him, "The rabbit must be moved to the rabbit house! The big one next to us is reserved for us! The small one, don’t Snatch it with the rabbits." The

    little old man nodded eagerly. As for whether he would snatch the house with the rabbit later, the ghost knew it~~

    With a stone axe, two spears on his back, animal skins and straw ropes around his waist , Wearing straw sandals on his feet, bringing some dried meat, and a pig urine bubble...Chen Chao just set off!

    Properly dressed up as the rich and handsome among primitive people!

    It's not that he doesn't want to prepare anything else, it's that he is so poor that he urinates and there is nothing!

    Of course, he was so poor that he urinated blood only for him, a system boss who had seen the colorful world. For the Tianyuan tribe, they feel that now is the best life!

    However, Wu still insisted that he bring the small pottery pot that was burned out at the beginning. Inside it was a bowl of one-eyed burning, which happened to be packed with the jerky. Wu also took a small lynx skin for Chen Chao. on.

    Chen Chao waved his hand at Yuan who had sent ten miles away. What a special Lao Tzu might not walk another thirty miles, so you gave away ten miles...

    Because Chen Chao was going to follow the small river to see if the foot of Tianyuan Mountain was suitable for building a small town or not for farming, and to see the specific situation of the big river there.

    It was too late before, and many things couldn't be determined. Moreover, Chen Chao planned to go to the big river to see what animals would usually drink water in order to determine which animals might be nearby.

    Chen Chao walked down the mountain along the river, and the trees became shorter and shorter and began to sparse, which made him very happy. This was a sign of going out of the jungle.

    At noon, he was resting by the river. He speared two fish with a spear, found two stones to set up a small pottery pot, and stewed himself a pot of fish soup. It's a pity that there is still no salt, no matter how fresh fish soup is drunk every day, it will feel dull and tasteless.

    It seems that going to the salt tribe to get salt is imperative!

    Why not go to the Xian tribe to get salt once after determining the new place of residence this time?
