"You didn't expect that today is our harvest day for bush berries. On the harvest days, large-scale collection is required. After the collection, these berries will be processed in batches in several different ways.
For outsiders like you, you can get access to the things you are most interested in. You should be very happy, right?
So during the next collection process, I hope some uncles will help us. You must know that the main people responsible for collecting are actually young children like us.
I think the uncle won't see us working too hard and will take the initiative to help, right?
When the uncles help us do it together, we will know how difficult it is to collect rivers and lakes. Please be sure to tell all the adults you meet in the tribe who sneer at this work, and ask them not to forget, everyone They all came here as children, and they have worked hard at this job before. "
Mai Fan found this little girl's behavior extremely interesting.
This is to use an outsider like him who has some weight to speak to see the hardships of these children, so as to feed back to the adults and achieve the follow-up they want.
No matter what, this little girl can think of many possible ways to take advantage of her from one invitation, so she has to be called smart and extremely smart.
Mai Fan and the others didn't care about such a small use, so they naturally agreed with a smile.
However, they will definitely go there with these little girls, isn’t it hard? They also need to observe it with their own eyes and do it with their own hands before they can know it.
The next journey was much more interesting. A pair of heavily armed warriors were still leading the way. Mai Fan and a group of half-grown children stood in the center of the team as protected objects, and then at the end of their team, It is still a group of fully armed warriors. Judging from the comparison between the number of warriors and the number collected, the number of warriors accounts for almost half of the number of children.
This is really an interesting phenomenon. Since protecting such a bunch of children requires so many warriors, why not let the young adults in the tribe go directly to work?
But Mai Fan could think of a simple method. The members of the tribe opposite must have thought of it, but they are still doing basic work in this way, which shows that there must be some reason for this arrangement.
Therefore, even if Na Fan had doubts in their hearts, they did not say much, but followed the others to another road.
This is the location of a red bush belonging to the same genus as the beasts they gathered in the morning.
However, the area where the beast fell was undeveloped and full of shrubs, and they chose another road that had actually been opened up and was passable by many people.
It can be seen from there that it is very well maintained. You can pass three people side by side on the path. Most of the dangerous and dense shrubs around it have been cleared away.
Even though there are still new red thorns emerging on the roadside, their branches are sparse enough to hide any danger.
On the relatively safe road, even the soldiers responsible for protection are still very alert.
They didn't relax a little until they passed through the passage with red bushes.
Mai Fan has never seen such a strange sight. In a red band, there are densely packed black strange plants, and on the other side of this strange black plant, there are some strange white plants growing.
It's like they have been together for half their lives and grown together, half black and half white.
On the black plant, there are fruits as big as fists hanging, which are exuding a strange smell that can't be said to be sweet or sour.
And the white side. The plants are completely different, they are all like small particles. Row after row hanging on the tree trunks, they look immature.
The density of those small particles is like a large number of fish eggs that can be laid at one time. They are attached to the white branches and are really not friendly to people who are afraid of secrets.
"The fruit we are going to collect today is a fist-sized berry. Although it looks ordinary and smells sour, in fact, after simple processing, it has a taste and Fruits that taste very good.
When reaching the sub-tropical zone, this fruit can be stored for a long time and serves as one of the important supplementary sources of vitamins in our tribe.
Our task today is to quickly pick these ripe fruits and bring them back to our tribe before they rot and are discovered by natural enemies.
You know, these foods are the result of months of hard work by our mothers and fathers.
So, uncle, pick up the basket behind you and come over to help. "
Basket, where did the basket come from?
Mai Fan and the others came here empty-handed. They just wanted to come and watch the excitement. They wanted to see what these children said if it was too difficult, what they needed to do.
What he didn't expect was that this cunning kid suddenly made four or five baskets from behind the youngest kid at the end of their team.
It turns out that the main purpose of bringing such a young child here is not to let him help out, but to let him carry these baskets.
In the innocent eyes of this half-year-old child, Mai Fan and the others were embarrassed not to accept it. They handed it over, but all the baskets were empty.
As a last resort, a few people took the empty baskets as big as their own arms and waited for the little girl's next instructions.
"Okay, uncles, let's see what we do next. If the method is wrong, we will be busy, not only will our efforts be thankless, but we may gain nothing.
The cortex of this kind of black fruit is actually quite thick, so it is not very afraid of being squeezed during normal picking. However, when they are picked from the tree, you must pay attention to the fact that there is a squeegee at their connection. The wound formed after it was removed.
After taking it off, you can't put it in the basket immediately. Instead, you have to put it face up and let it be exposed to the sun for a short while until the juice overflowing from the wound above it will automatically solidify into gel. After that, you can put it in the basket.
If this step is not done, the final result will be that the fruits at the bottom will be squeezed to pieces, and all the juice will be squeezed out from the wound, leaving only a useless layer that cannot be eaten. The skin in your mouth.
This is the first point to pay attention to, then the second point is to pay attention to your hands during the picking process. "
