Xiaohua volunteered to take them to the lotus pond again.
When they came back with the lotus roots in a large group, Jiang Xue's eyes fell to the ground.
She asked them in surprise, "Did you dig out all the lotus roots in the lotus pond?"
"No, we only dug a part of the shore. We didn't dare to go into the deep water area."
After hearing what they said, Jiang Xue felt a little relieved.
Fortunately, they knew that they couldn't get everything back.
There are so many lotus roots, how long will it take them to finish them?
Xiaohua put the lotus roots away and took Jiang Xue to the river.
Jiang Xue knew what she was looking for and followed her to look for it.
Not long after, Xiaohua excitedly picked up a river clam from the river and ran towards Jiang Xue to take credit: "Sister Xue, look at this, I didn't lie to you!"
Jiang Xue looked at her and it really was a river clam!
However, there is not even a pot in the tribe now. To drink water, they just run to the river and scoop up the water with their hands to drink it raw. As for the river clams... they can only wait until they can make something like a pottery jar.
Or, you can change some iron pots in the system...
But Jiang Xue searched through the system's exchange interface, and she didn't see a single porcelain bowl, let alone a pot.
What's going on?
She really wanted to ask the system what was going on, but even if she shouted at the top of her lungs, the system didn't respond.
The Eagle Tribe returned empty-handed, and the people of the Snake Tribe seemed to have returned to their previous lives. The only change was that there was an ingredient called lotus root on their menu today.
The reason why river clams were not included in their recipe in the end was that Jiang Xue had not yet cooked them.
She was very discouraged, and she was even more depressed because she couldn't eat such delicious food.
She stared blankly at the fishing net in the system.
Come to think of it, she had never seen them eat fish in such a long time since coming here!
There is a river behind their mountain, and there should be fish in the river.
In the evening, the hunting team returned with a full load. There were seven or eight people, each carrying a little wild boar.
Seeing the wild boars, Jiang Xue's eyes lit up immediately: "Have you destroyed the wild boars' lair? How come there are so many wild boars?"
My goodness, with so many wild boars, how long will it take them to eat?
A rare smile appeared on Mu Feng's face. He said, "There are so many wild boars, enough for us to eat for several days."
Jiang Xue looked at him in surprise: "So, you won't go out hunting in the next few days?"
Mu Feng nodded: "I won't be going out for at least two or three days."
"But didn't you say the cold season was coming? Why didn't you prepare more food for the cold season?"
"We have too little salt."
Seeing that he mentioned salt, Jiang Xue asked curiously, "Where does our salt come from?"
"I got them all at the flea market. Salt is expensive. Two wild boars as small as these can only be exchanged for one bag of salt."
Jiang Xue stared at him, secretly shocked. Why is salt so expensive?
"Then can we raise these little wild boars?"
Mu Feng stared straight at Jiang Xue, his eyes shining: "Axue, you...what did you say, raising pigs?"
Jiang Xue felt uneasy when he looked at her. She laughed dryly and said, "Yeah, why don't we raise so many lively wild boars? If we raise them well, we won't have to worry about food during the cold season."
Even if we have to go out hunting again in the cold season, at least we have fresh meat to eat.
Mu Feng's eyes flashed with a fiery light: "Axue, so, you know how to raise pigs?"
Jiang Xue laughed awkwardly.
Although she was an agent before, she had never raised pigs.
However, haven’t you seen a pig run even if you haven’t eaten pork?
Wouldn’t it be fine if we just build a sturdy pigpen for them and provide them with food and water regularly?
For example, now, the mountains and fields are full of their favorite food. If we preserve some grass or other things for them to eat in the winter, they will definitely be able to survive for a while.
She didn't say too much: "Well, if you trust me, I'll give you an idea, maybe you can really raise it."
"I believe it. I believe whatever you say!" Mu Feng agreed excitedly without any hesitation.
"But that's impossible today. Let's talk about it tomorrow. So, tonight we will tie up their feet with straw ropes to prevent them from running around."
These wild boars were obtained at the cost of the hunting team's lives. If she could eat one, she would feel better.
But if these wild boars run away due to poor supervision, not only others but also she will feel the pain for a while.
"Okay, let's do as you say!" Mu Feng didn't even think about it and ordered everyone to pick up straw ropes to tie up the pig.
Speaking of which, it was really thanks to Jiang Xue that the tribe had straw ropes.
Over the past two days, the elderly in the tribe have been sitting around twisting straw ropes. Even if their thighs are rubbed red, they don't complain. Their ultimate goal is to make a pair of straw sandals for every member of the tribe.
Even the straw sandal rakes made seven or eight spare ones after seeing the patterns made by Xiaohua.
Jiang Xue lamented more than once that she had truly underestimated these ancient people.
If there is something that can bring convenience to the tribe, they will try their best to imitate and make it.
In just a few days, there were already thirty or forty wicker baskets in the tribe. Although not everyone had a pair of straw sandals, members of the gathering and hunting teams already had a pair because they needed to go out every day.
