MTL - Be a Leader In a Primitive Tribe-Chapter 7
Tuanzi's family of three occupied the cave, and Sang Yu could only move to a small cave with Yu.
The little girl slept peacefully, and it didn't affect her at all.
It is this dry grass that makes people itchy all over while sleeping, and makes a rustling sound when turning over, which is very disturbing.
But conditions do not allow, Sang Yu can only force himself to adapt to the environment.
After a night of nothing, when she woke up the next morning, Sang Yu went to the only spring on the mountainside to wash up, and Yu followed her. Sang Yu had a toothbrush and towel in her bag.
Still, she taught Yu how to clean his teeth with a stick.
Children are still young, and good habits can be cultivated slowly.
Sang Yu turned around and looked at her still immature face. According to modern aesthetics, this child is not so white except for her complexion.
But he looks very handsome, but he just keeps his face all day long, serious and unsmiling, like a little old man.
"Why do you always look unhappy? Is it because you haven't eaten enough?"
Yu was embarrassed by her rubbing, and hurriedly pulled her hand away and said: "I'm full, but after I finish eating, there will be nothing left."
Sang Yu smiled: "Are these things you need to consider as a child? As a leader, I don't worry about it. What are you worried about?"
In fact, Sangyu did not find a good solution to food. But she knew that there was nothing to worry about, and that everything the tribe had experienced before was the process and trend of social progress and evolution.
Big fish eat small fish and light rain eats dried shrimps, and big tribes swallow small tribes. Through this method, the expansion continues. Because of the increase in population, in order to obtain food, human beings are forced to constantly think, and then improve productivity, so that society can continue to progress.
But in the process of expansion and progress, how to make the team he leads survive as a winner is what Sang Yu is currently considering.
But before, other problems could only be solved by feeding the tribe's population.
"We can still grow cassava. If we grow more cassava, we will have a lot to eat next year." Sang Yu comforted.
Yu froze for a moment: "Next year?"
It was only then that Sang Yu remembered that the people of the tribe had no concept of time at all, they only talked about the date, and only knew that the night passed and the day passed.
Draw a line on the stone wall in one day, the more lines there are, the longer the number of days will be.
They don't know how to count, and they lose their fingers when they count to five, and they don't know how to describe them in the future.
Sang Yu sighed, the knowledge of the tribe must also be improved.
"After the snow falls, the first thunder strikes, which is almost like a waking of stings. Then we can start sowing seeds."
The mechanical watch on the wrist is still running. The weather here seems to be consistent with the modern season. Sang Yu plans to follow the modern time, and slowly adjust and improve the time and festivals later.
"Is the seed the cassava in the ground? Then, should we keep some of the seeds, so we can't eat them all?"
It is best for children to be curious, and Sang Yu took the trouble to tell her: "Cassava is different from other plants, you only need to bury the roots in the soil."
Yu nodded with a half understanding.
After Sang Yu washed up, she took her to find the big troops to gather and dig traps together.
As the vice-captain, Gao was very conscientious. He had summoned the remaining nine all-round team members to wait in line long ago, and Yu also hurried into the team.
Sang Yu was very satisfied with Gao's performance. After complimenting him a few words, he said to everyone: "Now our tribe's food depends on us, so we have a heavy burden on us."
"However, you don't have to worry. There are still a lot of food in this land that haven't been discovered. Next, I will lead everyone to find them one by one, and capture the prey one by one, so that the tribe's People will never have to go hungry again.”
"At that time, you will be the great heroes of our bird tribe, and you will not have to worry about food and clothing."
The few people who had no idea in their hearts were excited by her words.
Loudly said: "Leader, just tell me, what to do, we will follow you!"
This is what Sang Yu wanted.
"Today we went out to dig a trap, dug a big pit, stuck a sharp spear in the bottom, and then covered it with branches and leaves as a camouflage, if the animal didn't pay attention, it would fall down and be stabbed to death by the spear. Become prey in our hands, understand."
She explained it in detail, and everyone can understand it.
Last night, Sang Yu had ordered each of them to prepare a few wooden sticks and sharpen one end to make a spear, as well as the previous stone knives and stone spears.
Now each had two or three weapons in his hand, waiting to go.
Gao used to be in a hunting team, and he is very familiar with the surrounding environment, as well as the places where animals often appear. After listening to his analysis, Sang Yu finally decided to go to the deep forest to the east to set traps.
The other cassava field that Zhi mentioned earlier is also there, so let's check it out by the way.
It was autumn now, and they got up early before the sun came out.
When Sang Yu came through, she was wearing a set of jeans, a shirt and a black jacket, and there were two sets of clothes in her bag.
I was wearing the sweater in my bag today, and it was quite cold when the wind blew, but the people of these tribes were used to it.
These people wore turf and animal skins around their waists, their upper bodies were bare, and they walked in front with high spirits. These women like Zhi knew that they were shy, and their chests were somewhat covered.
Although the little girls like Yu and Hong are not yet developed, they also know that men and women are different, so they put on a small animal skin to cover the two spots on their chest.
Naturally, Sang Yu couldn't do what they did. She only hoped that her three sets of clothes wouldn't spoil so quickly, so she could wear them for three to five years.
At that time, we might be able to find cotton or hemp to make clothes.
The group arrived at their destination soon.
After entering the forest, Sang Yu ordered everyone not to separate from each other in group action. Yu was light and light, and asked her to climb to the top of a big leafy tree to observe the movement, and immediately alerted if any wild beasts came.
Before digging a pit, the most important thing is to determine the location of the pit.
To capture prey, several traps must be set in an area at the same time to increase the hit rate of the traps.
Find traces of animals' frequent activities and haunts. This trace is mainly to see their paw prints, feces, and chewed plants.
Special attention should be paid to the place near the water source. Animals need to replenish water and will definitely move around the water source. This will be an excellent place to set traps.
After Sang Yu and Gao circled the route that the wild beasts often pass by, they led everyone to dig a hole together.
For each pit, four adults and one child cooperate to dig together. First dig in an area, and then move the position after digging.
There was a child named Hong in the team, who was very flexible in her hands and feet. Sang Yu led her to set up simple hunting traps with ropes and vines.
There is no skill in digging pits. Just dig the soil with a sharp spear. At least two meters deep pits must be dug, otherwise animals will easily escape after falling.
Everyone used stone tools for such a big pit, which was very inefficient, and only two or three could be dug in a day.
Sang Yu is not in a hurry, she has already made plans, and the trap will be used for a long time in the future. If it was that easy, the people in the tribe wouldn't be so hungry.
The making of a noose trap is relatively simple. Find some tough grass ropes, form a noose, and place them where animals often appear.
This method is also very easy to succeed. The disadvantage is that it can only catch some relatively small animals, and the larger ones will break free from the rope and escape.
After digging the pit and paving the grass to make a camouflage, Sang Yu asked everyone to find some green leaves to light and smoke them on the trap, so as to cover up the smell of strangers, so as not to arouse the vigilance of animals, and then bypass the trap.
On the first day, I did it with my hands and moved slowly. I could only set up two big traps and set up ten noose traps, but it was already considered good.
Because I have been digging traps today and haven't found any food, I will inevitably be ridiculed by Lie and others when I go back.
The members of the Almighty team are not very sure about the trap at present, and they don't bother to argue with these people after a tiring day, so they ate some cassava and went to sleep.
It's just that the children Qing and Hong were dissatisfied and cursed back angrily.
Sang Yu had a rare day of work and was very tired, and she didn't want to be as knowledgeable as them, so she patted the heads of a few children and told them to go back to rest earlier.
Seeing that she didn't refute, Lai and the others thought she was easy to bully, and her words were even worse.
It made the tribe very depressed.
The next day, Sang Yu took people out to dig pits and set up traps as usual. Practice makes perfect. They dug a total of four pits, and everyone was very happy.
The most important thing is that two oversized bamboo rats and a big rabbit fell into a big trap yesterday. The bamboo rats were full of meat, and the bulging ones weighed at least five or six catties each.
Although it is not a big gain, the usefulness of the trap means that their hard work is worthwhile.
So I worked extra hard today. Especially Zhuang, a naive boy who hadn't eaten meat for a long time and was drooling looking at the wild rabbit.
Sang Yu also felt happy when she saw it. It was her greatest wish that the people in the tribe could have enough food.
But now a new problem has emerged.
For three small animals, if there is a pot to cook soup, two or three bowls of broth per person will be fine. But when they are roasted and eaten, there are thirty people in the tribe, which is three tables of people, one for each table, and at most two small pieces.
Sang Yu narrowed her eyes as she looked at the soil dug up from the trap.
"Did you find a kind of sticky soil, white or any other color?"
The few people who were working hard heard the leader's question and shook their heads. Their tribe seldom played in the mud.
Good clay is hard to find. It is generally distributed in rivers or seas. There are also good kaolin near hot springs, which are important raw materials for ceramics.
There is not even a river near the tribe, and even drinking water depends on the small spring, and there is no way to take a bath. If there is a drought, there is no place to drink water. It is strange to find good clay.
Thinking of the place where the tribe was, Sang Yu couldn't help frowning.
That place is in a low-lying area, and it is easy to be submerged if there is a flood.
And Zhi also told her that there were falling rocks rolling down the mountain before, killing two people.
Not safe, not close to the river, really not a good place to live.
Sang Yu thought about moving the tribe's address.
However, before she could think about this, when she returned to the tribe at night, something happened that made her very angry.
