Chapter 220
Just the job of collecting feces... Yu Sui imagined it and frowned a little.
All I can say is that although farming is a good thing, the process is tiring and dirty.
In addition to manure, corn stalks and sorghum stalks after harvesting can be dried and burned into ash for use as fertilizer, which is more fertile than the ash from burning ordinary hay.
In addition to these, you can also cast natural magic on crops and seedlings several times to make the crops grow better.
Shuyu also told Sui that he could practice natural magic in the fields. Natural elements would constantly approach him during his meditation. The higher the concentration of natural elements, the better the crops in the fields would grow.
The fields have been developed, but the canals have not been dug yet, and several wells have to be dug in the fields, otherwise it will be difficult to draw water.
This job is rather troublesome. Even though Yu Sui has memories of his previous life, he has only seen others plant it since he was a child and does not have much impression of it himself. Fortunately, the two minotaurs are very familiar with this aspect.
Blue and Jerry were very familiar with where the canal should be dug and where it should be led. After resting with the members of the Heitu tribe for a few days, they continued to lead them to dig the canal.
When Blue and Jerry first saw the well in Yu Sui's house, they were extremely curious. Although Yu Sui told them how to find a place where they could dig out water, the Minotaur still didn't know the specific details.
This time, Yu Sui happened to find several places in the fields where wells could be dug, and he started digging with a few snow wolves. The minotaurs watched carefully from the side. Once they learned how to do it, it would be convenient for the Red Grass Tribe to water the fields in the future.
The water outlet device built by the dwarf at the wellhead also saves a lot of trouble. Just like the one Yu Sui used when he was a child, he would pour some water in every time he used it, and then press the water out.
Although it is not as convenient as the later wells that use electricity directly, it is less labor-intensive than the oldest wells that require putting a bucket down and then pulling it up.
When Uncle Robert was away, Yu Sui was digging a well in the yard and accidentally told him about a device that could directly pump water out of the well. Since then, Robert always wanted to make a magic-driven device, but he went to the Gray Iron Tribe before he figured it out.
Yu Sui led his men to dig a well, and he also marked the locations for other wells. Now most of the preparatory work was done.
The best time to sow the grains and potatoes he plans to plant this year is in April and May. The weather here among the Snow Werewolves is colder, approaching the cold northern regions in his previous life, so he plans to sow when the weather improves completely.
Otherwise, if the temperature suddenly drops and there is a frost, the seeds in the ground will be destroyed, and the loss will be too great.
This was Yu Sui's first spring on this continent. He had seen from the original owner's memory that there would occasionally be late spring cold snaps here, and the temperature would drop more suddenly and with a greater difference than on the human continent, so it was better to be cautious.
It's March now, and everyone can finally have a good rest during this period.
Well, of course the snow werewolves don’t just lie there and sleep when they rest. The tribe is in urgent need of bricks, so they have to help make bricks when they have nothing to do.
After waking up, Mimi played happily with the cubs. She was the youngest, so everyone was very considerate of her.
Every day she and Xiaochu would roll into two mud figures before going home. Yu Sui had no idea how they could get mud on their hair and faces while making bricks.
They were having so much fun that Yu Sui saw that Mimi seemed to be enjoying herself so much that she didn't want to leave anymore and she didn't even complain about missing her parents. What a heartless little girl.
She was not in a hurry, and Yu Sui could not keep dragging it out. Now that there was less work in the tribe, it was time to arrange for Qi and Xu to send Mimi home.
Time became abundant again, and Qi had not taken the soldiers for training for a long time. In order to prevent them from getting unfamiliar with the training, Qi took the soldiers to the valley for training, and even the reluctant Ashan was taken there.
Yu Sui thought about it and decided that there was no rush, so he decided to go to the cafeteria to help.
Everyone has worked hard for so long, and he plans to make some delicious food for his people himself.
"Do you want to cook with us? We are so lucky today." Karan was surprised to see him coming.
Yu Sui scratched his head and said, "Everyone has been busy for so many days and it's been hard work."
Karan and Dolly have only recently returned to the canteen to cook. For them, the work in the canteen is a little easier, as farming is too tiring.
It is well known that the food cooked by Yu Sui is delicious. Everyone looks at him with curiosity and anticipation, wondering what he will cook today and waiting to help him.
"Sister Dolly, please help me get some potatoes and cabbage from the cellar so we can make some lunch boxes today." Yu Sui said to Dolly.
He later learned how to make rice dumplings online. After eating it once, he was amazed by its deliciousness and the method was not difficult, so he learned to make it himself. It tasted better than takeout and was healthier.
But the raw materials must be selected carefully. I have experience with this. The cabbage sold in supermarkets is not tasty when used to make dumplings and has a bitter taste. The cabbage grown at home is sweet and refreshing.
The long green cabbage grown by the Minotaur people tastes good, but Yu Sui got used to calling it cabbage based on its shape, and over time, the other tribesmen got the wrong idea and started calling it cabbage as well.
He still remembered the puzzled look on Blue's face when he first heard them call this cabbage. The Tauren called this vegetable green vegetables.
I forgot just now that Yu Sui asked Duoli to go to the cellar and get a few large baskets of eggs.
Some of the eggs in the cafeteria cellar were picked up by Ashan and his cubs, and the rest were mostly chicken and duck eggs picked up from the farm every day.
That's right, after the pheasants and gray-shed ducks adapted to life in cages, they had enough food and started laying eggs. Whoever went to feed them would pick up the eggs from the cages every day.
The eggs laid in farms are a lot larger than those in the wild. This may be due to the food they eat. After all, pheasants and wild ducks do not get enough bran and grain, so the nutrition they get is not enough and the eggs they lay are naturally smaller.
How can you make a meal without egg sauce? Later, Yu Sui fermented the bean paste at home and it became edible, which was just right for frying egg sauce.
All kinds of eggs in the cellar were mixed together. Yu Sui was too lazy to pick them out, so he just broke the eggshells and mixed them together.
Potatoes are often eaten in the cafeteria recently, and Rob has mass-produced more than a dozen peeling knives for Yu Sui. Otherwise, it would be very difficult to peel the potatoes. Not every Snow Wolf can control the strength so accurately.
Ever since the dwarves and the snow wolves started living together, the snow wolves, who had always thought that their sharp teeth and claws were the most useful and disdained to use other tools, gradually changed their mindset and began to get used to living with various tools.
In the past, werewolves didn’t have to do so many delicate tasks, and their claws could solve many problems.
The tribe is now developing rapidly in all aspects of food, clothing, housing and transportation, and many tasks are difficult to complete without tools.
