"Witch, please bring out another animal skin bag of grains, okay, okay?"
Xing hugged Yang Cheng's arm and begged coquettishly.
This is the "nirvana" that the beast-eared girls have figured out.
They had been getting along with Yang Cheng for a long time, and found that as long as they held Yang Cheng's arm and shook it, then pouted, widened their eyes, and made some requests, Yang Cheng would generally not refuse.
"Yes, Wu, I just counted. There are seven bags of millet you put in the cave. I took out one bag, and there are still six bags of millet left."
Yan Lin pointed her fingers and looked at Yang Cheng with a look that said, "Did I make a mistake this time?" and said, "So bring out another animal skin bag. We still have five animal skin bags, which is quite a lot. "
"Uh-huh."
Xia nodded, hugged Yang Cheng's other arm, and shook and rubbed it.
However, no matter how coquettish the beast-eared girls are this time.
Yang Cheng would never agree to their request.
"No, we can't take it out. The remaining millet will have to wait until next spring as seeds and be sown after spring begins."
Yang Cheng shook his head and said firmly.
"Spring begins? Sowing seeds?"
The two new terms made the beast-eared girl stunned again.
Yang Cheng didn't bother to explain. Primitive people had a single mind and no imagination.
Without seeing the real thing, no matter how Yang Cheng explained it, Yan Lin and the others couldn't figure out what sowing was.
"Anyway, those grains are inedible, so I will be of great use."
Having said this, Yang Cheng looked at everyone with a solemn expression: "From now on, no one except me can touch the remaining millet, otherwise I will abolish his totem and drive him out of the tribe."
Yang Cheng said solemnly.
Millet is related to the future development of the Qingque tribe.
When the Qingque tribe becomes stronger, there will be fewer and fewer ferocious beasts nearby. They will either be hunted down or run away.
Therefore, in the future, the Qingque tribe will have to rely on farming to maintain the supply of energy and blood.
If he didn't say it more seriously, he would be afraid that someone would be tempted to eat it and steal the grain to eat.
Although this situation has only a small probability of happening in the Qingque tribe, Yang Cheng must nip this trend in the cradle in advance.
Hear what Yang Cheng said.
The joyful air suddenly condensed, and the atmosphere dropped and became serious.
Everyone responded one after another, not daring to bring out more bags of millet to cook into rice to satisfy their appetites.
Seeing that everyone took his words to heart, Yang Cheng secretly nodded with satisfaction.
"Okay, let's continue to eat and cook the meat. There is still a lot of ferocious beast meat here. Let's have a full meal tonight!"
Yang Cheng's tense face relaxed and he laughed.
Seeing this, everyone gradually relaxed and continued eating.
Yang Cheng shook out the last bit of rice in the animal skin bag, found a new clay pot, washed the rice again, and added water.
This time, he no longer had to do the cooking in person, it was Xia who did the cooking.
Xia is clever and handy, and is also the minister of the "Life Department", responsible for managing the old and young children.
After watching Yang Cheng cook a meal, he learned how to do it.
"Add a little more water."
Watching Xia add a little water, and imitating Yang Cheng's movements, measuring with the tip of his little finger, Yang Cheng asked Xia to add a little more water.
"Witch?" Xia was a little confused.
"Listen to me, go ahead." Yang Cheng smiled and nodded.
So, Xia added a lot of water to the pottery pot. Only when the water was twice as high as the rice, Yang Cheng asked Xia to stop.
After doing this, the clay pot is placed on the fire.
Not a moment.
The aroma of rice spreads, but it's not as strong as the first time.
It's a light fragrance.
Yang Cheng opened the clay pot and white smoke came out.
The water inside has turned white, and the rice grains are rolling.
"Wu, what is this?"
The beast-eared girls' eyes widened. Why was the rice made by Wu this time different from the previous ones?
"This is called porridge. It has more water and less rice, but it can still fill your stomach."
Yang Cheng explained, and then asked the beast-eared ladies to find more than fifty bamboo bowls and divide the porridge in the pottery pot evenly into them.
The porridge in a clay pot is divided into nearly sixty portions. Each bamboo bowl is absolutely full, with only a thin layer at the bottom.
But the porridge is not enough, so meat is needed.
Yang Cheng then asked Yan Lin and others to fill the bamboo bowls with meat and invite the exiles to come over and eat.
The exiles heard Yang Cheng asking them to come over for dinner.
There was an expression of disbelief on each of their faces.
They did not expect that they would not only be able to eat the meat of low-level ferocious beasts, but also the delicacies enjoyed by the upper echelons of the tribe.
Immediately, every exile was excited.
When they came over, they were all trembling, and they bowed vigorously to Yang Cheng to thank him. Some of them knelt down directly, and then they picked up the bamboo bowl in front of them in an orderly manner.
Seeing their excitement, Yang Chengdu was afraid that they would spill the food in the bamboo bowl.
And what you see.
After tasting the delicious rice porridge, these exiles looked at Yang Cheng with even more gratitude and a lot of fanaticism.
"Well, it seems that these exiles have truly identified with the Qingque tribe."
Yang Cheng smiled on his face and began to think in his heart: "In that case, we have to find time to absorb these exiles.
This time cannot be too late. It must be fully absorbed before next spring, because the tribe has a lot to do in next spring, including farming and breeding plans.
However, the time cannot be too early. If it is too early, these exiles will think that it is easy to enter the Qingque Tribe and they will not know how to cherish it.
Best of all, start by setting up a hierarchy.
In this regard, you can refer to the city-state system of ancient Greece, which divided tribal people into first-class citizens, second-class citizens, and third-class citizens. Each citizen enjoyed different rights and treatment...
Yes, it should be like this, it is fair, and it can also strengthen the sense of belonging for the exiles, so that they cannot get something for nothing. Well, I will think about it carefully later..."
Yang Cheng planned to go back to the cave to think about the tribal system for a while. With the addition of exiles, the existing tribal system was no longer applicable and it was time for reform.
And Yang Cheng also had to calculate the gains and losses of this return and make plans for the next development of the tribe.
Think so.
Yang Cheng saw that everyone had almost eaten and the sky was getting dark.
Then he asked Yanhu and Cangshi to repair the gate of the wall, and then settle the exiles. Don't spare the animal skins, and make more tents for the exiles.
The weather has entered autumn, and it is still a bit cold to sleep in an open field without a tent.
The most important thing is not to let the tribesmen harass these exiles.
Yang Cheng noticed while eating that there were a few single guys in the tribe who kept staring at several female exiles.
As the saying goes, eating enough and drinking enough makes you think... and so on.
After all, the Qingque Tribe is a righteous and lawful tribe, and Yang Cheng also plans to develop the tribe into a civilized society.
The future of female exiles definitely belongs to the totem warriors, but Yang Cheng doesn't want to see it done with brutal and brutal methods.
