In the public fields, the old patriarchs volunteered to unleash the passion of the "elderly people".
Good guy, in this rural cooperative, all the old people in the tribe are excited, and other tribes are actually the same. Many old people who can't hunt prey seem to have suddenly found a direction for the rest of their lives. When they signed up to farm, All of them are better at fighting than those young men!
"When I was hunting in the mountains and farming in the fields, you were still drinking dirty water from the mud!"
The old man had a unique way of cursing, and many young men were defeated one after another. In this way, a strange situation occurred. When the people working in the public field area gathered, most of them were "old people".
But they are old people, that is, they are only in their fifties. Compared with what Emperor Yao saw back then, an old man in his fifties and two old men in their seventies and eighties were playing with each other by smashing clay and rubbish.
"Why are they all old people...I thought only our tribe was like this."
A young man was dumbfounded, and then he thought that the last discussion about public land must have happened not only within a single tribe, but probably similar things had happened to all tribes.
"Who do you think is old?"
An old man took off his animal skin and stood in front of the young man with his strong chest and muscles from years of hard work!
Then, a group of old people started taking off their clothes to show off their muscles!
"Stop looking down on people. It's only 800 acres of land. There are so many of us! Why can't we plant it before we die? If you ask me, young people should go hunting. Look at your thin arms and legs. Yes, I think about when I was young..."

At the winter solstice, fighting fingers.
This is a major winter festival. Since the time of Fuxi, the winter solstice has been regarded as an extremely important period. Later, after the perfect calendar was revised, the name of the winter solstice was determined.
The climate in Nanqiu is still warm. Compared with autumn, the temperature drop is limited, while the southwest is hotter, including Lingnan, so that it is almost the same as mid-autumn.
At this time, in the north, especially the north of the river, Emperor Fangxun's capital was on the north bank of the river, and it had begun to snow there.
The climate in the Mountain and Sea Age was hotter than that of later generations, so there was not much snow in the Central Plains, and the climate was naturally only cold. The real heavy snow line would have to be pushed directly to the top of the Northern Mountains, which would have affected the Mengshi activity. area to go.
For northerners, that is also the dividing line between the real poor and the fake poor...
"If you go any further north, it's not civilized at all. It's not slash-and-burn farming, and it's not like drinking blood from your hair! By the way, the Zhulong should be outside the northwest sea, and beyond the northeast sea is the big Kunpeng of the North Ming Dynasty..."
During the winter, the progress of Yu Zai's Qi refining was relatively slow. On the contrary, during the winter, Chi Songzi's Qi refining progress was very rapid. This was because the Qi he was refining was exactly the opposite of that of Yu Zai.
The Akakata family is very busy all year round, but at least they can take a break during the winter solstice.
"Speaking of the Shanhai era, there was no such thing as celebrating the New Year in the Yao period. It was not until Emperor Shun succeeded to the throne that he inherited the throne. Then he cooked cattle and slaughtered sheep to worship the previous emperors. Later, this day was regarded as the first day and the beginning of the year... ..”
"Shang Shu Shun Dian" says: "On the first day of the month, Shun followed Wen Zu."
It is said that the winter solstice was called "Shuo Dan" during the Huangdi period.
By the winter solstice, it was very close to the beginning of the year in the calendar revised by Yao.
Some friends are building a wall next to the farmland, and the waterwheel is slowly turning.
This is a tall house made of stone. The gaps between the stones are smoothed with earth, and the three-component earth method of burning shells is still used.
The fire nearby was burning brightly, and Guzi was brought to exercise and began to do child labor for Yuzai.
To use goo to burn wood, you only need one goo, and then throw it into the wood at once, and the process is complete.
As we all know, Guzi is a sustainable and clean energy source that only requires a handful of rice and a few bugs to feed.
This building is a mill.
It is placed on the edge of the water channel in a farming area, and equipment such as stone mills for grinding grains will be brought here.
As for Ruzai, he was in the medicine house in Nanqiu, busy around several large pottery jars.
A part of the bean sprouts were soaked in a vat for a few days and sprouted. They were placed in the open space of the medicine house, pushing the roller, and the rice was ground into powder, which was quickly collected by Yu Shu.
"What does Wu want with these grain flour?"
Yu Shu was puzzled and looked confused after collecting them. When Yu Zai was tired and stopped to rest, Yu Shu went over to ask.
As for Yuan Tu, she went out to search for new crops again. Now Yuan Tu is also very busy. Not only does she have to write those work manuals with Yu Zai, but she is also responsible for finding new grains.
After all, it is still a problem of insufficient manpower.
Yu Zai sighed: "We have salt and oil, but we still lack sauce and vinegar. I am working on these two things."
"But to make soy sauce and vinegar, you must first make wine..."
"If you make it this year, you can eat it next year! Winter is the best time to make these things!"
Yu Shu was confused: "Wine? Sauce? Vinegar?"
Yu Zai knew that at this time, wine, sauce, and vinegar had not yet appeared on this land.
There were two ancient ancestors of wine. One was Yi Di from the Shun and Yu period, who was called the God of Wine, and the second was Du Kang from the Xia Dynasty. Some say he was Shaokang, the sage of wine.
Yi Di made the wine koji, while Du Kang made the complete wine making process.
What Yuzai needs now is distiller’s yeast.
Only with distiller's yeast can soy sauce and vinegar appear, and the appearance of distiller's yeast and soy sauce vinegar in history is actually accidental.
With oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar, life can be considered full of fireworks, and the prerequisite for having soy sauce and vinegar is distiller's yeast. The prerequisite for making distiller's yeast is that there must be surplus food.
This year, the Akagata family has dolphin seeds, coupled with the advanced production technology of Zanzai, as well as the existence of super labor force such as Dayi, many factors have been integrated, so there will be a bumper harvest.
Therefore, agriculture is the basis of all things, and beans, rice, and taro are still the main food products.
As for vegetables, leeks, etc., there is no need to expand the cultivated area. The current area is enough. The newly opened fields should be reserved for crops such as radishes.
"Witch, should we get more oxen? Now we can't pull it with two oxen. Why don't we go back and carve a few more stone oxen and ask God Youhou to help?"
Yuan Shu's suggestion made sense to Yuanzai.
Although the stone cows don't need to rest, these two guys have some bear habits. Fortunately, the winter in the south is not cold, otherwise these two cows would have hid and slept.
But with just the two of them, there is a serious shortage of labor, not to mention the rapeseed fields to cultivate.
"God Youhou needs sacrifices. Giving bear skins all the time is not an option. The wool comes from the sheep..."
Yu Zai thought about it for a while.
Although I don't want to, when it comes to raising cattle, in the entire southern wilds, you still have to look for the Tong Hong family!
Lao Niu opens the door, Yangcun comes to borrow something!
————
This day should have been a sunny day, and it should have been a very pleasant day.
"Today we will talk about how to negotiate with the Akakata clan. Our god is still in their hands. This is simply a shame and a great shame..."
"The same goes for the horn. You borrowed it and didn't return it. You're bullying me too much!"
The shamans of Tonghong clan raised their arms and shouted!
Down with the Yangcun hegemony! Down with rural cooperatives!
Make the Tong Hong family great again!
"witch!"
Someone ran in in a panic!
The shaman of the Tonghong family was doing ideological mobilization. He was very unhappy when he was interrupted, but when he saw it, he suddenly got excited!
"Is someone from Yangcun coming? Hurry! Close the door quickly!"
His grandmother’s, I once had a neighbor who would come to my house to borrow things when he had nothing to do, and never returned them!
"I regret it now! I regret it so much!"
The wizard of the Tonghong family stood against the door and roared with a broken gong:
"I should have snatched all your food from the beginning. Even if you are punished by Xun Mountain, I will admit it!"
Outside the door, which had been re-nailed with wooden boards, Juzai's shouts kept coming.
"Lao Niu, open the door!"
