Chapter 36 Inventor of the Han Tribe
As soon as the two mammoths came ashore, they trotted to Luo Chong's side, sprayed Luo Chong with the water they had just sucked up from their noses, and pushed him with their noses.
Luo Chong wiped the water off his face helplessly and patted their noses, "Since you are in my territory, if you want to eat my food, you have to work for me. I won't support you for nothing. Do you understand?"
Luo Chong didn't know whether he understood or not, but the two mammoths patted Luo Chong's head with their noses, and he didn't know what it meant.
The women in the fishing team were shocked when they saw the two giants running towards their leader, and then they found that they did not attack the leader, but looked very familiar with him. This surprised them. The leader was really powerful. He could even subdue such a big monster.
Qubing ran over at the first time and hugged Luo Chong's thigh intimately. He was not afraid of the giant beast next to him at all.
Luo Chong told them that the newcomers were all new members of the tribe, and then he took them back to the cave, and put Xiao Qubing on Ximen's back for him to ride, while the two baby macaques were already running wildly in the open space.
The tribesmen of the Yuanshu tribe and the fishing team were looking at each other. The fishing team's eyes were basically on the 18 blue antelopes, while Dashu and his men were observing the women of the Han tribe, looking at their hairstyles, leather boots, fish in the baskets, and the white-pole spears that each of them had.
This was Dashu's favorite white-pole spear. They actually each had one, which really made Dashu envious, but when he thought that he had now joined the Han tribe, he was still a little excited.
The entrance of the cave was also very lively now. It was dusk, and all the people of the tribe gathered here. They had seen Luo Chong coming back, as well as the two big monsters running around.
"Chief."
Everyone stood straight and shouted in unison when they saw Luo Chong coming.
"Well, I'm back. I brought a lot of things this time. These are the new members of the tribe. You should treat them like your own people in the future. And don't kill the four-legged animals. They are not for eating." Luo Chong came to the crowd and explained.
Everyone said they understood, and then Luo Chong told everyone to make dinner and make more today.
The clever Qubing consciously acted as a commentator, introducing various things to Dashu and the others with his little mouth, which made Dashu and the others stunned.
There were dozens of pots that were bigger than the one Luo Chong used, and there were also beautiful pottery bowls, jars, and cans, all of which seemed to be carved out of the same mold, making them embarrassed to take out the wooden bowls.
Moreover, everyone in the Han tribe had leather boots and tied their hair, but Luo Chong was the only one who put a hairpin in it.
At the entrance of the cave, there were also today's prey, countless fish, and a Wan-toothed pig with more than a dozen holes pierced all over its body, weighing more than 1,000 pounds. It seemed that the hunting team could use spears flexibly, which made Luo Chong very relieved.
Dashu and his friends also had a general understanding of the strength of the Han tribe, and the food stored by this tribe was indeed enough for them to eat during the winter.
The children were also very diligent. They stood on a "grass hill" next to them and were confronting the baby macaque. That was the grass they had pulled these days. Judging from the size of the grass pile, it should be enough for the blue antelope and the two macaques to eat for a whole winter.
Before leaving, Luo Chong arranged for them to clean up the open space outside the cave. The children did a good job. In addition to some grass, there were no bushes or other plants on the open space. Luo Chong happily rewarded each of them with two rabbit skins, and the children happily went to find their mother to make clothes.
The baby macaque finally hugged the "grass hill", and the blue antelope took off all the things on their bodies and let them climb the grass hill together.
In an open space not far away, a large pile of red bricks had been piled up. The lame man reported to Luo Chong that he could burn four kilns every day, and he also made a tool for the children, which he proudly took out to show Luo Chong.
Seeing the tools that the cripple took out, Luo Chong was stunned. The cripple gave him a simple wooden spike rake, which was similar to the one Zhu Bajie used. The cripple also demonstrated to Luo Chong how to use the spike rake to rake grass.
"Nimma, I was wondering how to make a grass mountain, and it turned out that this is how it was made. Good, cripple, you can invent something, your brain has opened up, you have the potential to be an inventor." Luo Chong was shocked, but he was also very happy. This is progress.
He praised the cripple for a few words, and then told him that he didn't need to burn bricks tomorrow, and he would burn a batch of pottery for the new tribesmen to use. The cripple nodded to show that he understood.
Speaking of pottery, the elder next to him said that he had something to say. The elder told Luo Chong that a few days ago, the tribe of the bald head in the west came to trade pottery again. The elder told him that he could exchange it with people, but the bald head did not agree, saying that their people still needed to collect food, and proposed to exchange it with salty stones, and they could double it.
The elder thought about it and agreed. He replaced a water tank and two clay pots for them. Xie Ding also paid a lot of salty stones, which was enough for the Han tribe to eat for a long time.
The elder also reminded Luo Chong that the Bald Tribe had also learned to weave baskets, and they used rattan baskets to hold salt this time.
Hearing this, Luo Chong was stunned, but soon smiled and said lightly, "It's okay, don't worry about them."
There is really no technical content in weaving baskets. If you look carefully at the structure of the basket, you can learn it if you are smart. This thing is not difficult and very practical. Just learn it. It doesn't matter. It's not an important thing.
After inspecting all the work, Luo Chong made arrangements for the animals brought this time. The rabbits were arranged in the corner of the cave. A circle was built with some stones and yellow mud, and hay was laid inside. They were temporarily allowed to spend the winter here. There
were more than 30 rabbits, nine of which were big, and three rabbits were already pregnant. Not long after they were put in the rabbit circle, they began to bite the fur on their stomachs to expose their breasts. At the same time, they also used their fur to make nests to keep the upcoming rabbits warm.
Although the other little rabbits are only one or two months old, they are already the size of Hami melons and grow very fast. In the spring of next year, they will become new reproductive machines, and the number of rabbits will increase dozens of times.
Don't worry about the baby elephants. They have already attached themselves to Luo Chong. Looking at the pile of "grass hill", they probably won't leave even if you drive them away.
The blue antelopes are tied to a tree not far from the cave entrance. They will make do for one night. Tomorrow, people will be arranged to build pens and straw sheds for them so that they won't freeze to death in winter.
After finishing all this, dinner is almost ready. Before dinner, Luo Chong held a simple ceremony for new members to join: tying up their hair.
The people of the Yuanshu tribe did not object to this. This was originally a good thing accepted by the new leader. In the future, everyone will be the same, and the leader will not deliberately target anyone. What's more, they themselves think that tying their hair does make them look more energetic and much better than having their hair dishevelled.
Today we hunted a giant pig, so pig blood was a must for dinner. We stewed several large pots of meat and wild vegetables, and also cooked a pot of chestnut stewed chicken, a beggar chicken, a dozen fresh grilled fish, and a sweet and sour fruit for each person, using the pheasant Luo Chong shot today.
A sumptuous dinner instantly brought the new and old members closer together. Everyone was talking and laughing, and they had a great time.
I have to say that the table communication in our great China is quite awesome. It doesn't matter if you don't know each other, you will know each other after having a meal in a restaurant; it doesn't matter if you are not familiar with each other, you will become familiar with each other after having another meal in a restaurant; it doesn't matter if you are not close friends, after drinking half a catty of white wine, I guarantee that you will call me your old friend.
There is nothing that can't be solved by a bottle of white wine. If that doesn't work, then two bottles. Tsk tsk, what a pity, there is no wine.
After dinner, Luo Chong asked the "old people" in the tribe to help the newcomers make leather boots, so that the newcomers could learn to make them together, communicate more, and soon they would become a family.
Others made clothes and shoes, but Luo Chong took a piece of burnt charcoal and wrote and drew on the rock wall of the cave. There were pictures, numbers, and words.
Luo Chong stared at those things in a daze, thinking, and didn't notice the elders behind him who were shocked, the curious Qubing, and the big tree who was more and more respectful of Luo Chong.
