As night falls, a half moon casts its bright light, accompanied by bright stars and the moon in the night sky. Under the shining of the stars and the moon, the Qingque tribe turns into a sea of joy.
Not to mention anything else, just the bowls of mutton offal soup that are cooked, chopped up, and then added with fruit vinegar, ginger, garlic, and then re-added with water is enough to make everyone's mouth drop.
Not to mention, there is also mutton bone soup made from mutton bones.
Han Cheng was not idle. He peeled all four kidney balls of the two tigers. He and Wu ate one each tonight, and there were two left. They would each eat one tomorrow morning.
Since finding the hand-warming treasure, Wu, who had lost his integrity in his old age, had also started to work day and night like Han Cheng, so he must not skip on food...
Near noon the next day, the eldest brother and his group who had traveled by land also returned, and there was needless to say, great joy.
After waiting for another two days, Han Cheng asked people to take some food and twenty or thirty sheep and head west along the roads that had already been built.
The purpose is to use these newly captured sheep to reward the road construction team in the tribe.
After walking for more than a day, the reward team temporarily appointed by Han Cheng met a road construction team that was still building the road.
After the two sides met, there was natural joy, especially after they realized that the twelve sheep were left for them to eat.
The members of the road construction team were all extremely happy about the Son of God's generosity. While chewing mutton, they thought of making more efforts to build the rest of the roads except for the bridge before the snow fell.
At the same time, some people couldn't help but asked how the tribe got so many sheep all of a sudden.
Among the reward team, there was the guy who was paddling the bamboo raft. He immediately began to excitedly tell everyone about their unforgettable experience and gains a few days ago.
Most people like to reminisce about or tell others about events that are memorable and glorious enough.
As this man spoke with great excitement, the members of the road construction team all opened their mouths wide, with expressions of surprise and yearning on their faces. They felt very sorry that they could not participate in such an unforgettable hunt.
After talking about hunting, the man went on to talk about how they killed two tigers on the way back.
After this matter was made known, it naturally caused these people to burst into exclamations.
Just as the road construction team members were amazed by this, the man mentioned that both tigers were male.
After saying this, he asked the people on the road construction team a question with a mysterious look on his face. The question was why these two tigers, both male, could live in harmony.
Naturally, the people in the road construction team had no answer to this question, because many of them had heard the Son of God say more than once that there cannot be two tigers in one mountain, unless one is male and the other is female, and they all thought it made a lot of sense.
After seeing the reaction of the road-building team, this man immediately showed an expression of "I knew you didn't know". Under the questioning of the road-building team, this man who had learned to keep people in suspense said mysteriously: "Because they are good brothers!"
When he saw the people from the road construction team, most of them looked at him blankly, obviously not understanding the meaning of good brothers. He immediately patted the other person next to him and began to preach: "Just like the two of us, we don't fight, we are good brothers."
"We don't fight, we're all good brothers!"
After understanding what the term "good brothers" meant through this man's personal experience, someone immediately started shouting like this.
Such calls were soon recognized by the majority of people.
They are all from the same tribe and do not fight with each other. According to the standards this person just mentioned, they can indeed be called good brothers.
The man touched his head and looked at the man next to him who was his good brother. He always felt that something seemed to be wrong.
But he felt that what everyone said made sense, so he quickly followed everyone else and said, "Yes, we don't fight, we can live together, we are all good brothers!"
Just like that, "good brothers" became the annual hot word of Qingque in the past ten years, which was definitely something Han Cheng had not expected.
By the time Han Cheng found out, the word "good brothers" had already begun to spread in the Qingque tribe.
And it is not limited to male primitive people, female primitive people are also called this way.
Seeing Bai Xue holding her little girl Han Xing and feeding her while saying that she and he were good brothers, Han Cheng felt an urge to hit her.
This is really a case of one's own fault. Why was I so mean to say that word?
Of course, these are all things that happened later.
On the second day, the reward team left some sheep and other food and headed to the Tongshan residential area with the remaining food.
The road ahead has not been built yet. After a summer, grass taller than the knee has grown on the road that was previously clean.
Fortunately, this is not a tropical area. If it were a tropical area, with the terrifying growth rate of those plants, in just one summer, they would be enough to completely engulf the passages that Han Cheng and his team had opened with axes and sickles...
About ten miles away from Wild Duck Lake, people from the Feng Tribe and the neighboring Feng Tribe were building a road there.
For several months, except when it rained, they were repairing roads. Doing only one thing for such a long time, even though they had never done road repair work before, they were now extremely skilled at it.
As they got used to it, they built more roads and gained more things every day. Gradually, they got used to doing these things and were no longer willing to think about the hunting they used to do.
This is true for adults, let alone children who are still in their growth period.
They spent half a day repairing roads and the other half learning Mandarin and Chinese characters. This is basically how they spent their days over the past few months.
Such a highly regular life has enabled these minors to make rapid progress in road construction and speaking Mandarin.
At the same time, it also made them increasingly unfamiliar with hunting and gathering fruits.
Even many minors in the two tribes began to not care about these two things.
Because they and the people in their tribe used to be engaged in hunting and gathering, but their lives were not good. It was common for them to go hungry due to lack of food, and it was not uncommon for them to have no food for the next meal.
Now, they no longer need to hunt and gather. They only need to build roads to get food, and the food is better than before.
Under such circumstances, it is normal for them to attach importance to things like road construction and despise hunting and gathering.
"Green Bird Flag! Green Bird Flag!"
A minor with sharp eyes pointed to the place where the road had not yet been built and shouted with joy.
Upon hearing this, the other people who were building the road looked up in the direction the man pointed, and saw a group of people coming out from about a hundred or two hundred meters ahead. A flag embroidered with a green bird was held high by one of them.
Seeing this familiar scene, everyone in the Wind Tribe and the neighboring Wind Tribe cheered.
Finally someone from the big tribe has come, but I don't know if the Son of God has come!
The crowd cheered and went to greet them. It didn't look like they were welcoming people from outside the tribe, but rather welcoming people from their own tribe who had returned from hunting.
The three tribes soon came together, and there was immediate laughter and a harmonious atmosphere.
If someone who doesn't know the details sees them, he will never find out that these people belong to three completely different tribes, because not only is there no barrier between them, their appearance also looks the same, and more importantly, even the language they speak is the same.
Not seeing the respected Son of God in the team, the people of the Wind Tribe and the neighboring Wind Tribe felt very disappointed, especially the minors.
However, this loss was soon diluted by greater joy, because the people from the main tribe directly slaughtered the two sheep they brought, and then began to cook for everyone.
The leader, Mao Geng, pointed at the other three and told the old primitive people of the Feng tribe that these three sheep were also left for them to eat.
After saying this, he took out a blocked bamboo tube from the package he was carrying, unplugged it, poured out fruit candies from it, and distributed one candy to everyone, one per person.
"What is this?"
The old primitive man from the Wind Tribe tilted his head and carefully looked at the translucent fruit candy in his hand, thinking it was extremely beautiful.
"This is candy, made by the Son of God, it's sweet and delicious!"
Mao looked at the old primitive man and said with a smile.
After hearing that such beautiful things were actually eaten, the old primitive man couldn't bear to eat them.
I held this fruit candy in my hand, looked at it over and over again, and just couldn't bear to put it in my mouth.
"Sweet! Really sweet! Delicious!"
Just because he was reluctant to put it in his mouth didn't mean that others were reluctant to put it in their mouths. After hearing Mao say that it was for eating, some people couldn't wait to put it in their mouths.
After taking the fruit candies that they had never eaten before, these minors were stunned for a moment, and then immediately began to praise the wonderful taste of the fruit candies in their mouths with great enthusiasm. They were more excited than when they had eaten canned fruit.
After seeing everyone praising the candy and enjoying it, the old primitive man no longer had the urge to eat it, and he quickly threw the candy in his hand into his mouth.
As soon as he took a bite, the old primitive man's eyes widened, just like the others who ate fruit candy for the first time. It was really delicious!
If he had known that this thing was so delicious, he would have put it in his mouth long ago and would not have hesitated for so long holding it in his hand.
Smelling the meat aroma coming from the pottery jar, scratching the fruit candies to make them hit their teeth, feeling the sweet taste, and then looking at the three sheep that were led out separately, the old primitive people all felt warm in their hearts.
I also began to respect the Son of God more and more.
Unconsciously, in the hearts of many people, the status of the Son of God has surpassed that of the leader of their tribe.
The Son of God would always be concerned about them, fearing that they could not afford salt or pottery, so he specifically asked them to build roads, and would give them these things without asking for food or furs.
And meals are provided, so you can eat as much as you want.
These were already generous enough in the eyes of the old primitive people. However, in addition to this, the Son of God would occasionally send people to bring them delicious food for them to eat for free.
Such things simply do not exist in their tribe.
The tribe didn't have much food to begin with, and the best and most of it was eaten by the leaders. After they were eaten one by one, many people couldn't even get enough to eat, let alone eat well.
In the kind-hearted Qingque tribe, under the leadership of the kind and generous Son of God, they lived an unprecedented good life. Not only could they have enough to eat, but the food they ate was extremely rich and tasted super good compared to what they had before.
In addition, the kind Son of God would occasionally ask people to bring better food for them.
Just like the sheep and sweet fruit candies nowadays.
After having a meal and taking a rest here, the reward team, mainly composed of the trading team, left here and headed towards the Tongshan residential area along the constructed road.
After Mao and his companions left, the people of the Feng tribe and the neighboring Feng tribe were still stuck in a happy mood. Inspired by the delicious food, they all worked even harder.
"well!"
A gust of wind blew, and yellow leaves fluttered down from the trees. The old primitive man of the Feng tribe looked at the falling leaves and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
This is not because he felt sad about the passing of time. As a person who needs to work hard to fill his stomach, this kind of feeling is only felt by people with nothing to do, and will never appear in the old primitive man.
The reason he sighed was that through the large amounts of falling leaves he realized that winter was coming.
People living in this era hate winter the most, because this season when everything is white represents cold, hunger, and death to them...
In the past, when the old primitive people realized that winter was coming, they would also sigh deeply, but the sighs in the past were different from this sigh.
In the past, I was simply worried about the coming winter, but now I am more worried about the impending separation.
When winter comes, the weather is cold and snowy, making it no longer suitable for outdoor activities, and of course the road cannot be repaired.
If the road cannot be built, they will have to end their lives here, leave this kind and generous tribe, and return to their own tribe to live the same life as before...
Emotions are contagious. As more and more people realize this, the people who used to be enthusiastic about building the road gradually became silent, and the atmosphere gradually became depressing.
Many people stopped talking and just worked silently on repairing the road. These minors, who were already sensible, became even more sensible...
When the reward team, which was mainly composed of a trading team and flew the Green Bird flag, arrived at the Tongshan residential area, the Tongshan residential area was naturally filled with jubilation.
After the fruit candies and more than ten sheep were sacrificed, the whole tribe was suddenly filled with laughter and joy.
The man who was paddling the raft once again recounted the spectacular scene of their arresting the sheep, and the strange fact that both tigers they killed were male.
While causing everyone to be amazed, the term "good brothers" was also spread in the Tongshan residential area...
After staying in the Tongshan residential area for one night, the team returned the next day under the leadership of Mao.
All the food and other things they brought with them, except for some food for the journey, were left in the Tongshan residential area.
However, the people who returned did not return empty-handed. They had free hands and brought with them the copper and tin ingots smelted in the Tongshan residential area during this period of time.
More than three quarters of the length of the Bronze Expressway has been built. Starting from the Tongshan residential area in the morning, we headed east along the flat road. At dusk in the afternoon, we arrived at a place not far from the Wild Duck Station marked by Han Cheng on the map.
Some temporary dome-shaped, semi-cave-style sheds have been built here. The two teams from the Feng Tribe and the Linfeng Tribe, who were hired to build roads for the Qingque Tribe, are now resting here.
The members of the trading team have long been accustomed to camping in the wild, but they are not very willing to live in tents if they can have some houses to live in.
Moreover, wooden stakes were nailed around the temporary shed according to the method they had originally taught, making it relatively safer.
The reward team, which was mainly composed of the trading team, had a large number of people. When the work sheds were built, they were not built to be spacious, so after squeezing as much as possible, half of the people in the trading team still lived in temporary tents.
"What's wrong with you guys?"
After having dinner together, Mao looked at the old primitive people of the Feng tribe and asked them.
When he first started trading, he was not a very careful person, but after doing more and more trading with others, he gradually became more careful.
Because if you are not careful, you can easily get into danger.
It was also because of this that when some people in the trading team had eaten and drunk enough and were ready to go to bed, he noticed that the old primitive people were not in a good mood and asked such questions out loud.
"If you encounter difficulties, you can tell us and we are willing to help you. Even if we can't help you, there is the kind and wise Son of God who is willing to help you solve the difficulties."
The old primitive people of the Xiangfeng tribe conveyed this message half in Mandarin and half with gestures.
Hearing what Mao said, and thinking of the clever, wise and kind Son of God, the old primitive man and others suddenly felt enlightened.
The Son of God should be able to solve the difficulties encountered by himself and others! After all, the Son of God is so smart!
So, the old primitive people, who were originally a little hesitant, told everyone about the things that made them feel depressed.
Mao was very happy when he heard this, because these people all developed a yearning for his tribe.
"Why don't you just join our tribe, so that we can live together. What we have, you also have..."
Most primitive people don't like to hide things, and in fact they don't have this habit. So after knowing the concerns of the old primitive people, Mao directly gave such a solution and invited the old primitive people to join his tribe without any concealment.
After these words were spoken, people in both tribes were excited, especially the minors. In the light of the fire, their eyes became sparkling, as if flames were dancing in them.
The old primitive man's heart was also pounding, and there was also a light flashing in his turbid eyes.
However, like most adults, as time goes by, the light in their eyes gradually dims.
They were all very willing to join this rich, powerful and kind tribe, but whenever they thought of those who stayed in their tribe and their own tribe, something would arise from the bottom of their hearts, entangled with the idea of joining the Qingque tribe and made them unable to move.
The old primitive people didn’t know what these things were, but they really existed.
"Then when I return, I will tell the Son of God about your difficulties and let him help you find a solution."
After seeing the old primitive people shaking their heads, Mao was a little disappointed, but not too disappointed. After thinking about it, he smiled and said this to the old primitive people.
Under such circumstances, the old primitive people could only nod their heads and place all their hopes on the wise and intelligent Son of God.
That night, after a day of hard work, many of the old primitive people, who usually fall asleep quickly, did not fall asleep until very late...
The next morning, Mao and his companions packed up and after eating, they continued to move towards the Qingque main tribe.
The old primitive man looked at Mao and the green bird flag gradually disappearing from his sight, and did not move for a long time.
However, unlike the anxiety they had before, they now had more hope in their hearts.
With the wisdom of the Son of God, he must have a way to solve the difficulties encountered by himself and others!
"real?"
Inside the Qingque tribe, Han Cheng, who was processing freshly picked hawthorns, looked at Mao and asked with surprise.
After receiving a positive response from Mao, Han Cheng's face was suddenly filled with smiles.
His six-month-long boiling frog approach was not in vain; these people were assimilated into his tribe.
It seems that it won't take too long before the population of my tribe will increase significantly!
As for the solution to the current predicament of the old primitive people, Han Cheng had already thought of it long before they encountered this difficulty, so he just used it directly...
