evening.
The family is back.
Su Tang then shared this good news with everyone.
Su Guodong and Su Jianyuan were particularly excited.
Lin Xia was also very happy, as handy kitchen utensils are very important for a housewife.
“Common iron ores include hematite and magnetite. The iron from this Bamboo Bear tribe should be magnetite,” Su Shiwei analyzed.
Whether the iron on this ancient continent is exactly the same as the iron they know is unknown.
"But if we bring the iron back, we're not blacksmiths, we don't know how to forge iron!" Su Jianyuan said with a worried look after his initial excitement.
That was the only trouble on the ancient continent.
There are too many things they don't know how to do.
It's not like in novels where time travelers are all-rounders who can do everything.
Su Tang thought for a moment and said, "That's easy. Just take a model of what everyone needs and let the beastmen of the Bamboo Bear Tribe make it. At worst, we can exchange some more resources for it."
What they have in abundance right now is fruit.
Besides bamboo shoots, giant pandas also love to eat fruits and vegetables such as apples and carrots.
As long as the materials arrive, there's no need to worry about the other party refusing to help with processing.
"That's a good idea." Lin Xia nodded in agreement and immediately took out her kitchen knife, spatula, and large pot.
The family excitedly packed their things.
Hoe, shovel, axe, arrow...
Su Guodong even pulled Su Shiwei along, saying, "Shiwei, could you help your father make a few models out of wood? Just a little bit."
As he spoke, he rubbed his thumb and forefinger together, squinted, and made a few rubbing motions.
Su Shiwei readily agreed, "Sure, Father, what kind of model do you want?"
"Plow, rake, sickle..."
Su Tang: You've listed every farm tool you can think of!
Xiao Fu, Da Qing, and five kittens sat in the corner, looking completely bewildered.
The main problem is that Xiao Fu and Da Qing are a bit slow-witted.
The two looked at each other and suddenly felt out of place.
Is it just their imagination?
"Squeak squeak squeak..."
Xiao Fu heard the sound, turned around and saw a basket of bamboo rats in the corner.
He thought of the chickens in the coop.
Now the family has enough eggs to eat every day. The older sister even told him not to collect eggs so often, so that the hen can hatch chicks.
He hasn't picked them up for several days.
Those hens sit on their eggs every day.
Do bamboo rats lay eggs?
No, bamboo rats seem to give birth directly to baby bamboo rats.
Xiao Fu licked his lips; he remembered how delicious the bamboo rats his mother roasted were.
If we raise them like pheasants, wouldn't we be able to eat roasted bamboo rats every day?
"Sister."
Su Tang was helping to tidy up when she heard Xiao Fu's voice and turned around.
Xiao Fu, holding a bamboo rat, looked up expectantly and asked:
"Can I raise these bamboo rats too?"
"Sure." Su Tang had already planned to raise it, but she hadn't figured out how to raise it yet.
Before coming to the ancient continent, let alone raising small animals, these things were almost non-existent in her world.
With Su Tang's approval, Xiao Fu happily went to tease the bamboo rat.
Daqing sat alone in the corner.
"Daqing, come help!" Su Guodong called out from somewhere.
Upon hearing the call, Daqing immediately stood up, his previous dejection vanished, and eagerly went to help his uncle with the work.
It feels so good to be needed.
...
Su Tang sorted and packed the cleaned tools according to size.
The family was still in a state of excitement.
She was about to take the cubs to wipe their paws and go back inside.
Turning my head, I found that the little ones seemed quite "excited" as well.
They kept flailing their arms and legs at the air, grabbing at whatever they were trying to grab. Each of the five little ones was grabbing at something else, as if they were fighting someone with their eyes covered.
"Little one, what's wrong?"
Su Tang called out, but the babies didn't react, as if they hadn't heard her.
Pick up the five babies that are closest to you, and they lick Su Tang's face like candy.
If Su Tang hadn't been quick enough to hold Wu Bao's head down, it would have wanted to bite Su Tang's face.
"Squeak squeak squeak!!"
Looking down, Da Bao realized he had caught a bamboo rat that had escaped.
It was lying on the ground, its front paws holding the bamboo rat, and its hind legs were kicking and thrashing like tiny electric motors.
Su Tang was getting a little anxious.
Is he possessed by an evil spirit?
Quickly call the two elders out.
"Father, Mother, come quickly and see what's wrong with the babies! They seem to be having problems!"
The yard was quickly turned into a mess.
The destructive power of these little ones is no joke.
The two elders were also startled when they came out.
"What happened? What's wrong with Zai Zai? Does he have rabies?" Lin Xia's first thought upon seeing Zai Zai's condition was that he was sick.
She used to work in a hospital, so she knows quite a bit about medical matters.
We won't be completely clueless.
The thought that it might be rabies made Lin Xia's eyes redden. "What are we going to do? There's no cure for rabies here..."
Su Guodong rubbed his eyes and stared at Sibao's paws.
I noticed a few small green leaves on its claws.
The four treasures were the quietest, sticking their bottoms out and rubbing their heads against the leaves.
"He's not sick! Baby isn't sick..."
As Su Guodong spoke, he stepped forward, took the leaves from the four paws, and held them up as he spoke.
"It's catnip. The kids are hallucinating because they came into contact with catnip."
