I Really Didn’t Want to Become a System

Chapter 245: Finally warm

Since Chen Chao successfully caught a group of resting young men from the Ministry of Construction, the Department of Ceramics and the Ministry of Construction, the ‘Ministry of Agriculture-Planting Team’ quickly completed the planting work.

After the planting work was completed, they became a ‘reclamation team again, and began to prepare for the next planting, and continued to cultivate more land.

During the period, he also took care of the young rice, wheat and cabbage.

As for Chen Chao, in addition to managing the Ministry of Agriculture, he also needs to go to the Ministry of Construction and the Department of Ceramics to deal with some things.

Because the Ministry of Construction is now building the city wall, in the early days, Chen Chao needed to bring a rope ruler and various tools to help the Ministry of Construction determine the location and specific distance of the city wall.

During the period, the mining department came back, but it was rewarded.

After all, it was only a team of fifteen people. Chen Chao was very satisfied with the copper and tin of seven wind wheelbarrows.

But still too few, five cars of copper and two cars of tin. It took fifteen people and more than a month, so count it...

Relying on the current output and capacity of the mining department/transportation team, without a break, only 60 carts of copper and 24 carts of tin can be recovered a year.

Emmmmm...This output and progress are really hard to say.

So a certain system boss hit his idea on the group of wild horses that he brought back before~~

It's time to launch the animal power cart!

At least the next time the capacity can be better, try to get back ten cars of copper and four cars of tin!

He went to see it some time ago. There were several more ponies in the wild horse group, and the team seemed to be much bigger than before.

It was estimated that there were only about 20 horses before. Chen Chao went to see it before and found that the number of wild horses seemed to have doubled.

I don't know if there are migrating wild horses, but accidentally discovered that there are only the same kind here.

Moreover, the surrounding area does not seem to be very dangerous, such a large plain, there are only some two-legged beasts that look weak and quiet.

There are no big and ferocious beasts, and the food seems to be plentiful, so this group of migrating wild horses also chose to stay here.

In any case, the expansion of the wild horse group made Chen Chao very happy.

Although they didn't let them help when transforming the paddy fields before, it wasn't enough bronze.

After all, the farm tools used by cattle and horses would be much larger than those used by humans, and the stock of bronze at that time did not support large quantities of large farm tools.

So Chen Chao can only look at the animal power and sigh~~

It's different now, now there are copper and tin in the tribe.

Although it’s not a lot, but two-wheelers and bronze horseshoes can go online~

However, Chen Chao still didn't pin his hopes on the wild horses. After all, wild horses were not only untamable, but also very powerful.

Of course, the same goes for bison...

Therefore, when possible, Chen Chao plans to select a group of more gentle and willing horses from the wild horses.

In addition, after the specific location of the city wall on the Ministry of Construction has been planned, he plans to take a group of people out, and find a way to get some bison and wild horses back, and the wild donkey will also be a success~~

Otherwise, the capacity is really stretched...

In addition, getting a batch of cattle and horses back can help with farm work, and the breeding industry can also develop more different options.

But now is not the time. The things that have just been planted in the field still need to be taken care of. The location of the city wall has not been specifically planned, and we can't go away yet, so we have to wait.

The previously customized March plan has been basically completed, and the subsequent May plan is gradually unfolding.

Apart from clothing, the other three things have either already begun or are ready to begin.

So this time I went out to get bison, and I had better find some sisal seeds back to solve the problem of summer clothes.

If you take the time, you have to let the people of the tribe look for them in the chestnut forest to see if the chestnut silkworms have begun to appear.

Chen Chao was thinking about the future development of Tianyuan tribe while thinking about the current affairs.

But not all places, like the Tianyuan tribe, do not need to be hungry or cold.

In this spring that finally came, those tribes who were inexplicably arrived in the cold winter when they opened their eyes.

He didn't have any time to think about the weird weather, but tried his best to make his body covered with thick animal skins.

It’s better to have grain and stock in stock, while those who don’t have grain and no stock.

You can only wrap it in thin bark, or use leaves to block your body as much as possible to maintain a little temperature.

Then in the cold winter, step on the melted or unmelted snow, looking for any food that you might find.

But they couldn't stop, because their people were hiding in the cave shivering and waiting for them to bring food back.

After finally getting through the weather getting warmer, the people of all tribes silently counted the losses brought to them this winter after cheering.

How much food was consumed...

Oh, this basically does not need to be counted.

Because winter comes so unprepared, many tribes do not have food in stock, and the food they consume is what they eat when they wake up.

How many clansmen died of freezing, and several clansmen starved to death...

How many adult males have lost their lives because of hunting in the winter, and how many people can replace them this year.

There is no way to take a closer look. For tribes with less than 100 people, only 10 people are reduced, which is considered good.

Fortunately, this period of time was not long. Although there were a lot of reductions in staff, many tribes still saved a certain amount of strength and survived.

Of course, the price to be paid is to reduce food for everyone except adult men.

The first thing to be reduced is the food for the elderly and children. There is no alternative, and we must provide full-fledged adult men with hunting ability.

Only if they have physical strength can they bring back prey for the tribe.

The elderly and children are usually owned by tribes that can support them.

After all, the elderly and children, most of the time, are in a situation where they have to consume a lot of food and are of no use.

As for waiting for the child to grow up...

The time it takes for a child to grow up to be able to hunt is too long...

The second is the adult women, because the food and fruits that can be collected in winter are very small, so after being unable to provide real benefits to the tribe, the adult women's food is also greatly reduced.

But if the reduction is reduced, the food for adult women will not stop.

Because the child can be reborn if the child is gone, but if the adult woman is gone, then there is nothing.

But no one really wants to eat that part of the food that belongs to children and the elderly, and they are also forced to help.

Without physical strength, they couldn't bring back more prey for the tribe, and they couldn't even find some edible nuts in the snow.

And it's not that if you eat food and go hunting, you will definitely be rewarded.

Many more people get nothing. They may have lost their lives because of the cold.

Or when they encounter beasts that they can't defeat at all, the men will fight desperately, doing their best, hoping to bring back some food for their tribe as much as possible.

if……

If you can't take it back, the men are probably wiped out.

Those tribes who did not get food can only sigh, and then send a team that can continue to get food.

There is no time for them to mourn the spring and autumn, to mourn for the dead.

They knew in their hearts that one day later, there would be less food in the tribe, and fewer people would be able to act.

So once there is a little chance of failure, the leaders and witches in the tribe will not hesitate to send a second team to get food.

Even if they successfully brought back their prey, no one would cheer and celebrate because the price they have to pay is too great.

In addition to facing terrible beasts, they also have to face cold weather.

Even though the animal skins of the entire tribe were wrapped around them, the cold wind still grew eyes, and it drilled into the cracks of the animal skins.

The cold wind will not only make them feel cold, but also take away their ears, or fingers and toes.

Not to mention the wounds in the fight with the wild beasts, the good ones may be broken, the big ones may be disabled, or even...death...

Sometimes, being able to face the beast is already the best choice.
