After returning from the mountain turtle tribe, Jiang Xuan dug a deep pond in the yard himself, dug a lot of fertile pond mud from the pond, and then planted the five ice lotus roots in the mud.

In the end, Jiang Xuan connected a bamboo pipe with running water to the pool, so that the pool would have living water instead of a pool of stagnant water.

After everything was done, Jiang Xuan washed his hands and said, "I hope to be able to grow."

After planting the ice lotus root, Jiang Xuan rode the dumplings to a high mountain in the west of the tribe.

This mountain is relatively close to the Veng tribe, but above the mountainside, the environment is closer to the place where the blue sheep tribe used to be.

"Boom!"

The dumplings landed on a gentle **** halfway up the mountain, and then, like a giant eagle, stretched out a wing and slanted against the ground.

Jiang Xuan walked to the ground along its wings.

Not far away, there is a wasteland that has just been opened up. The weeds and shrubs on the wasteland have been cleaned up, and now there are only some green grass buds.

In the wasteland, six small saplings were planted, all of which were wax trees brought back from the blue sheep tribe.

"Hey, it's sprouting!"

After Jiang Xuan approached, he found that there were several small buds growing on two wax tree saplings, which were in the shape of lumps and hadn't stretched out yet.

This means that the two wax tree seedlings are alive, and Jiang Xuan is very happy with this discovery.

"Since these two saplings can be planted, the other saplings should also be able to grow. If more saplings are transplanted in the future, this place will become a wax forest."

With wax forests, wax worms can be raised.

That is to say, if all goes well, the Goto tribe can raise wax worms on this mountain, and they don't have to venture so far to the blue sheep tribe.

This makes Jiang Xuan very happy. If the Veng tribe can produce a large amount of insect wax in the future, whether it is used by himself or traded, it will be very good.

Jiang Xuan squatted down and patiently pulled up the weeds that had just grown next to the saplings before returning to the tribe on the dumplings.

When he returned to the tribe, he went to the breeding area again.

In the current breeding area, there are already twenty or thirty shacks and a dozen caves for keeping various livestock in captivity. Because they have been breeding all the time, they have not eaten much, and the number has grown rapidly.

Among them, the most numerous are not colorful ducks, colorful pheasants or unicorns, but bamboo rats and long-tailed rabbits!

The bamboo rat can give birth to four litters a year, with three to five cubs in each litter.

And the long-tailed rabbit can give birth to six litters in a year, with three to ten cubs per litter, and the reproductive capacity is terrifying.

In just two years, the bamboo rat and the long-tailed rabbit have begun to take shape, occupying at least more than half of the pens of the breeding team.

Standing in front of a shed, Jiang Xuan looked at the pile of chubby long-tailed rabbits through the sturdy fence gate, and said with emotion, "Our tribe's meat can be considered guaranteed in the future."

Dajiao stood beside Jiang Xuan, and said in a hearty manner: "The leader is not just meat eaters. The long-tailed rabbit's skin is thicker and the fur is very warm. It can be made into animal skins in the future."

Jiang Xuan applauded: "Yes, in this way, the clansmen of our Teng tribe not only have meat to eat, but also animal skins to wear. Your breeding team has made a great contribution!"

Dajiao was overjoyed by Jiang Xuan's words, and he was more motivated to work.

Jiang Xuan checked the other livestock again and found that the colorful ducks laid a lot of eggs, and the female ducks were busy hatching.

Not only colorful ducks, but also colorful pheasants and unicorns, almost all lay eggs and hatch young at about this time.

Unlike the poultry that Jiang Xuan had seen in his previous life, these birds, which had not been fully domesticated, only lay eggs twice a year, once in spring and once in autumn.

If you want them to lay eggs all year round, you don't know how many generations you need to go through.

After inspecting the breeding team, Jiang Xuan walked to the Feiyu River again.

Fishing teams are trying to make wooden boats.

Of course, it's not a boat made of wooden boards. That's a job that professional carpenters can do, and people like fishing teams can't do it.

What they made was a kind of boat similar to a canoe, but much more spacious than a canoe.

"Crackling crackling..."

On the beach, the soldiers of the fishing team lit a bonfire, and then set a piece of wood on the bonfire to burn.

This piece of wood is about five meters long and one and a half meters in diameter, which is very thick.

If it weren't for the strength of the tribe's warriors, and the wood was already dry, I'm afraid it would be a big problem to lift it back.

This section of wood was found in the forest by Nepeta. After it died, it fell to the ground. Some of it had been corrupted. The section they brought back was relatively intact.

After carrying it back, first cut it hard with a stone axe, cut off the outer skin, and cut the upper and lower sides into a flat surface.

Beside the bonfire, Nepeta is holding a boat made of clay and is watching carefully.

This is a model of a flat-bottomed fishing boat. The style is very simple. The middle is large, the two ends are small, and there are two oars.

Even if the style is very simple, it is not so easy to make it.

One is because of inexperience, and the other is because the tools are too primitive, and it is very laborious to cut the wood into shape.

Nepeta can only follow the method provided by Jiang Xuan. After cutting the wood into a flat surface, turn it over, cover it with a thick layer of wet mud, and then set it on the fire and burn it. Click to burn out the inside of the wood.

Because it is covered with wet mud, except for the middle, other places are not easy to be burned.

When Jiang Xuan came over, five or six soldiers of the fishing team were busy removing the huge piece of wood from the fire and turning it over.

The middle of the wood was still burning, and the soldiers of the fishing team sprinkled some water on it, put out the open fire, and then used a stone adze to scrape off the black charcoal little by little.

This will burn more wood the next time you burn it.

After Jiang Xuan came over, Jing Ji stood up immediately and said, "Leader."

Jiang Xuan waved his hand and said, "I'm just here to have a look, don't mind me."

Nepeta said with a bitter face: "This wooden boat is too difficult to build. We have already burned a large log, and this is the second one."

"What's wrong?" Jiang Xuan asked.

"The burn was too deep and the wood split, so this time we're going to burn a little shallower."

Jiang Xuan nodded and said, "The first time is always more difficult. Just do it a few times and sum up the experience."

Nepeta hesitated for a while, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Boss, why do we have to work hard to build wooden boats? I think the bamboo rafts are also very good, and the soldiers of the fishing team also use them easily."

Jiang Xuandao: "You guys have been using bamboo rafts for so long, have you ever noticed that the bamboo rafts swayed violently when the water was flowing, and it was difficult to control the direction?"

Nepeta nodded and said, "That's true. Sometimes it rains heavily, and the river is in a hurry. When I support the bamboo raft, I feel like I can't control it."

"That's because the draft of the bamboo raft is too shallow, and water will enter between the bamboos, and the buoyancy is not strong enough. It is difficult to control it with a bamboo pole."

Jiang Xuan pointed to the wooden boat model in Jingjie's hand again, and said, "But the wooden boat is different. After people sit on it, it has a deeper draught, is more stable than a bamboo raft, and can turn more easily, and its oars are wider than a bamboo raft. Better for paddling."

"Let's put it this way, if our rattan tribe has always only made bamboo rafts, then the scope of your fishing team's activities is also the small section of the river in front of the tribe."

"However, if you can manufacture wooden boats and keep improving them, your fishing team will be able to own the entire river in the future!"

After listening to Jiang Xuan's words, Jing Ji only felt that a fire in her heart was ignited.

Jing Ji nodded solemnly and said, "Boss, I understand, we will definitely make a wooden boat!"

Jiang Xuan nodded and said, "This is the first time I made a wooden boat. It doesn't matter if it's a little rough or rough, and it's okay to improve it slowly, and it will always get better."

After Jiang Xuan and Jing Ji finished chatting, he walked over in person and chopped down the giant tree with a stone axe, cutting it into the shape of a wooden boat.
