    "Salt? There are not many in the tribe."

    Yu Yu wrapped a pile of taro with fur, and held a roasted rotten taro in his hand, and gnawed on it. The lamb behind finally got his wish and ate a roasted rotten taro.

    Yan Yu led it, and when she heard Yan Zai asking how much salt she had left, Yan Yu calculated it and gave a number that Yan Zai could not predict.

    Life as a vagabond is not easy. There is not much food left, so I have to save some. Now it is not convenient to get some cured meat and save the pieces of animal meat that I hunted.

    Where are the salt mines?

    If Yu Zai's memory of himself is correct, there should be rock salt around Xunshan and Kuangshan. Although they are not near the sea, if rock salt can be found, it will undoubtedly solve another problem related to the livelihood of the tribe.

    It's really a critical moment when we have to choose one. It is better to be short of sugar than short of salt.

    Sugar provides energy and salt maintains life.

    "Humph!"

    When Kang was shaking his head and being hugged by Yan Zai, when he heard Yan Zai muttering to himself, he suddenly twisted his fat body, as if he wanted to do something.

    Yan Zai's eyes lit up, he put it down, and then asked Yan Yu to bring some powdered salt.

    Yan Yu scratched her head secretly, pretending to be stupid, and Yan Zai glared at him: "Don't think I don't know that you secretly shaved the salt."

    Yan Yu almost choked, staring at him, Yan Zai approached him, leaning into his ear and said: "The old witch told me before that there is no one in the history of fire that hides salt secretly."

    After being exposed, Yuyu was dejected immediately, and hurriedly took off a small skin bag from her waist, and put some leaves in it as a cushion, three layers inside and three layers outside, which was very well protected, and some rough rock salt powder and rock salt particles  Just lie in it.

    Dang Kang took a sip of the powdered salt, then turned his head and arched towards the southwest.

    "There's rock salt in the Southwest!"

    Yan Zai's eyes lit up, but he quickly remembered that if he walked southwest, he would soon be out of the range of Xunshan and Kuangshan.

    When Kang said that it was far away from here, he hummed and danced for a long time before Yan Zai understood what it meant.

    Yan Yu took another mouthful of taro, muttered and said in surprise: "Hey, this little pig is pretty good"

    Dang Kang raised his head: "Hmph (yes)."

    If it weren't for the fact that the pig's trotters couldn't be put on the hips, and they had to be put on the fork for a while, it would have ruined this pig.

    Concubine Zai patted the little pig's head, and Dangkang felt that it was very useful, so he moaned and chirped.  But I heard Yan Zai sighed to Yan Yu again, and regretfully said: "It's a pity that the distance is too far, we don't have any spare manpower to mine now."

    After being licked by the tongue of fire, the soil became a little dry, but the air was still moist, and the world was still filled with lingering cold air. The spring day was coming, and the winter day was not gone.

    Today's ancients use the most primitive Huangdi calendar, which is the most basic calendar. Compared with the later calendars, it is not perfect and cannot tell people the time of farming, let alone establish solar terms and celestial phenomena. This is not  Later, in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, the Huangdi calendar was perfected to resist the Gregorian calendar.

    Of course, the so-called Yellow Emperor¡¯s calendar has different increases and decreases in different eras. For example, Emperor Yao also practiced calendars, but the calendars of Yao and Shun cannot match the Xia calendar, and the Xia calendar is also the first and most complete calendar in ancient China.

    Of course, one of the reasons for using the Yellow Emperor's calendar is because the Central Plains honored the Yan Emperor and the Yellow Emperor. Each tribe also has its own calendar, such as the earlier Fuxi calendar and the Shaohao calendar.  In fact, generally speaking, the later summer calendar was continuously improved on the basis of all previous calendars, but it has not been perfected to the extreme.

    Šu Zai decided that before the waking of insects came, the matter of the calendar should be resolved, sowing and harvesting accurately, and choosing the right solar term for sowing, this is the top priority at the moment.

    The most important point is that when everyone has learned the solar terms and the calendar, the people in the tribe will no longer rely on one or two old farmers for guidance.  After transforming experience into knowledge, and then learning and absorbing, it can be popularized.

    You Dangkang remembers that the salt mine will be mined sooner or later, but it is important to send the taro back to the tribe now.

    "There are lambs and dogs in the tribewhat do you call them, why don't you call them fat?"

    Yan Zai named Dangkang half-jokingly, and of course the one who called it in the end was "Porpoise".

    The little pig was carried back to the tribe by the concubine.At the beginning, the soldiers caught a lot of wild animals that escaped from the wildfire. Everyone returned home with a full load this time. Naturally, they were very happy.  The people at the head almost knelt down to Xiao Dangkang.

    Under the old tears, the old patriarch touched Dangkang's head vigorously, and the poor little pig suddenly felt a sense of danger, and under the uneasy moan, he was afraid that the old man would be eaten raw by him.

    "The gods have pity on me, Chifang clan, who bestowed this divine beast on me!"

    It is indeed a coincidence, Yu Yu just went to set a fire, and in the end he burned a beast, he just went to set a fire, and this idiot actually brought back a bunch of food!

    The thing called taro, the witch said, is an important food, and the yam is still chewing, although the aroma is not very good, but in the current situation, it is absolutely unbearable.

    So some people in the tribe were not convinced, and it was Shui Zheng, an enemy from ancient times.

    Yan Shu, who was born in the same year as Yan Yu, was very unconvinced.

    "Wu, we also got something good today!"

    Yan Shu shook out a bunch of purple snails, and Yan Zai squatted down to check, there were some small fishes inside.

    "That's right, it's all food."

    Yan Zai praised Yan Shu, and Yan Shu immediately became happy, but when he saw the taro in Yan Yu's hand, he curled his lips again, rolled his eyes, and suddenly a bold idea arose in his heart.

    In Zeshui, the distribution of fish, from the outside to the inside, must be weak to strong, and the outermost part of Yanzhize is just a few purple snails. The old patriarch once told him not to get too close to the inner area of ??Zeshui, but Yu Shu  Disapproval.

    How can you get a big fish without taking risks?

    When you think of it, you must prepare to do it.

    Yan Shu glanced at Yan Yu calmly, eager to get some big guys back.

    Chai snails are purple snails, of course they are edible, but there are swarms of fish and shrimps in the big lake. Although in the mountain and sea era, it was not too easy to catch because of the simple tools and huge creatures, but it can catch a big fish.  It can also allow the tribe to support for a long time.

    Of course, in this era, fishing is also risky. There may be something in the big lake. If you lift it up, you may be buried in the belly of the fish if you miss the fish.

    In the era of mountains and seas, there were many strange beasts, and the influence of gods had not faded. Humans were all extremely strong physically, and breaking boulders with bare hands was nothing but pediatrics, not to mention those beasts that were stronger than humans.

    ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª

    On the second day, Yan Zai continued to take Yan Yu to cut down trees and burn mountains to open up wasteland, while Yan Shu continued to go to Daze to arrest Li.

    Before leaving, Yan Zai suddenly saw Yan Shu carrying some fishing nets woven from old vines, and reminded him: "Have you figured out the depth of the water near Yanzhize?"

    Yan Shu responded naturally: "I figured it out, Wu, don't worry!"

    Yan Zai's gaze remained calm, just staring at Yan Shu. Yan Shu felt that he was doing the right thing, but he was justified. Seeing that there was nothing unusual about him, Yan Zai reminded him:

    "Don't get close to the deep water area, go back quickly, be careful on the road."

    Yan Shu responded with a full mouth, but the young man was young and energetic. He led dozens of people in charge of fishing, and soon followed the dirt road cleared during this period to the edge of Yanzhize.

    He immediately raised his eyebrows and felt that his prey was under the water waves.

    "That idiot, Yuyu, is just a bit lucky, and it's the lamb! When I catch a few big fish and go back, Wu Wu will definitely praise me!"
