Chapter 106 Let's Plant Rice (Please recommend and collect)
It is impossible to join another tribe, especially a patriarchal tribe. Shang has never thought about it. Besides, she has never seen Luo Chong's weaving skills with her own eyes, let alone any finished linen cloth on Luo Chong, so Shang can't make a decision easily.
"Forget it, we won't join your tribe." Shang shook his head and said.
Luo Chong spread his hands to show that it didn't matter. He just wanted to arouse Shang's interest and didn't think that the other party would directly join his tribe.
From being captured to now, nearly an hour has passed. The ramie leaves harvested before have wilted. Luo Chong poured water from the stream on them and said to You Fu beside him: "Tell them that I told them how to pick ramie. Now I will continue to harvest and fill these baskets and take them away. Let them agree."
You Fu translated the original words. Shang thought about it and agreed. This was the exchange agreed before. She had no reason and didn't dare to refuse. However, she had other ideas.
"Leader Han, we can give you the hemp grass, but can we exchange it with your tribe in the future?"
Luo Chong turned his head to look at Shang, and then looked at the tribe members of the Bian tribe behind her, and smiled and said, "Yes, but our tribe only wants people, men. If your tribe doesn't want them, you can use those boys to exchange things with my tribe.
My tribe is over there, and you can get there in one sunset. There is a deer skin hanging in the sky, with the word "Han" on it. That's my tribe."
Shang nodded to show that she understood. Luo Chong didn't talk nonsense and started to harvest hemp grass with You Fu. He was in a hurry just now and didn't pick much. Now he naturally harvested it crazily again.
Twenty minutes later, the four large baskets were all full, but Luo Chong didn't cut from the bottom this time, but the tender branches at the top, so that he could use the limited four baskets to carry more ramie seedlings back.
After pouring water on these ramie seedlings, Luo Chong put the large baskets on the backs of the deer. The two brought four deer over, two riding and two carrying baskets.
Luo Chong stepped on the stirrup and climbed onto the deer. Xiaodie, who was standing on the side, suddenly grabbed the reins and said, "Can you not leave?"
Luo Chong looked at Youfu next to him.
Youfu smiled knowingly, "She said she wanted to keep you as her man and asked if you could stay."
Luo Chong blushed when he heard the translation. He was hanging in the net just now but didn't understand a word Xiaodie said. He didn't know that this little girl had this idea at all. Well, Xiaodie seemed to be one year older than Luo Chong.
"I have my own tribe. I can't stay here." Luo Chong shook his head seriously.
When Xiaodie heard Youfu's translation, tears suddenly came out. She asked with a grievance, "Then do you have a name? My name is Xiaodie. What's your name? Can you tell me?"
"Han tribe, Luo Chong."
Luo Chong pulled back the reins in Xiaodie's hand, clamped his legs around the deer, and jumped out with a roar.
"Then how can we find your tribe in the future? We don't know your Chinese characters." Xiaodie shouted from behind.
Luo Chong did not stop, but drew out an arrow, bent his bow and shot the arrow two meters in front of Xiaodie, then rode away on the deer without looking back.
Xiaodie trotted two steps and pulled out the feather arrow. She looked at it carefully twice, and finally found two square symbols on the wooden pole at the end of the arrow, one side was "Han" and the other side was "Chong".
"Amu, this totem is the same as the one on his head." Xiaodie pointed the arrow pole to Shang. She didn't know what it was and thought it was the totem of the Han tribe.
"Keep it, don't break it. Let's try to make the same weapon. This weapon is really powerful."
You Fu and Luo Chong rode the deer and rushed back to the Han tribe. When they arrived, it was almost three hours before dark. You Fu couldn't help but sighed, it's still faster to ride a deer.
On the north bank of the artificial river, the tribesmen of the You and Han tribes have reclaimed a small piece of arable land, about five mu. Luo Chong used a shovel to draw ridges on the ground, and asked the tribesmen to directly insert the ramie seedlings into the soil and then pour some water on them.
"Chief, what are you planting this time? Is it food too?" The rat witch and the elders also came to Luo Chong.
"No, this is for making ropes and clothes."
"Clothes, what are clothes?" It was the first time that the elders heard this word.
"It's something you wear on your body. The animal skins we wear in winter are clothes. You can also make clothes with this grass, but it's very thin. It's clothes for summer." Luo Chong explained to them.
The tribesmen nodded one after another. They learned a new word, clothes, what you wear on your body is clothes.
The You tribe completed their mission and came to Luo Chong to ask for their reward. Although something went wrong in the middle, Luo Chong did not break his promise and gave them a pottery pot and ten pottery bowls. They could only choose one horned beast. You Fu directly asked for the horned deer he rode today, and smiled and said that he was familiar with it.
As for the fact that the two were captured alive by the tribe, the two of them tacitly did not even mention it. There was nothing to say about it. Both of them were the leaders of the tribe. There was no benefit in talking about being captured alive. Instead, it would easily reduce their prestige among the tribe members.
The next morning, the You tribe said goodbye to the Han tribe.
"Chief Han, we will meet again at the Menggu Spring Meeting. I hope to see you then. Don't miss the time." You Fu patted Luo Chong's arm.
"Yes, we will definitely go. Maybe we will have another chance to cooperate." Luo Chong also patted You Fu a few times.
"Goodbye, friend."
"Goodbye."
The people of the two tribes waved goodbye to each other. Luo Chong watched the You tribe's team disappear in the distance, his eyes a little dazed. He also wanted to go out on an adventure with the You tribe. He also had an uneasy heart.
"Chief, do we have any plans for today?" The elder walked to Luo Chong's side and called Luo Chong from behind.
"Oh." Luo Chong came back to his senses, looked at the elder, then looked at the rice field and asked, "What day is the rice field today?"
"Ah? Oh, let me think, it should be seventeen sunsets." The elder counted on his fingers.
Luo Chong looked at the sky again. It was cloudy and a little stuffy today. The air pressure was low and the air was humid. It was very likely to rain, but the spring rain would not be heavy. But this kind of weather was just right for transplanting rice.
Transplanting rice is the transplanting and planting of rice. It is necessary to pull the rice seedlings out of the nursery and transplant them into the fields. It is best to do it on a cloudy day, otherwise the rice seedlings may be sunburned to death.
Generally, rice seedlings should be transplanted 20 days after the seeds germinate. Now it is only seventeen days, which is a bit early, but the rice seedlings are growing well. They already have five or six leaves, and the single plant is already one foot tall. It is no problem to transplant them at this time. Moreover, it is not easy to find weather suitable for transplanting rice seedlings. Let's do it today while it is cloudy today.
"Today we are going to plant rice seedlings. All adult members of the tribe must participate. First, let the men dig holes in the canals and start releasing water into the fields."
"Chief, what is planting rice seedlings?"
