Chapter 63 The Witch Who Loves Rabbits
After the seeds were sown, the senior brothers who followed followed Han Cheng's instructions and swung the sticks in their hands across the ground back and forth.
In this way, the larger clods can be broken up, and secondly, the rapeseeds that cannot be found in the ground can be covered. While protecting them from being taken away by birds, it can also bring them good health. growth environment.
All morning, Han Cheng scattered all these rapeseeds on the ground.
Don't worry about the thickened rapeseed after it comes out, the green and oily rapeseed is the best to eat.
Looking at the first piece of farmland of the Qingque Tribe, Han Cheng smiled. No matter whether it is successful or not, once the seeds are planted, there will be hope.
In the courtyard near the east side of the wall, farther away from the cave, there is a second building in the tribe besides the wall.
The first building is the toilet.
The toilet was built in the southeast corner of the courtyard, away from the cave.
The establishment of toilets is very important.
In the past, the tribes were surrounded by trees. If everyone felt it, they would find a place with beautiful scenery in the fixed forest and solve it.
Now the nearby trees have been blown down, and Shenzi is extremely disgusted with people doing business with their naked buttocks exposed, so in the early stage of building the fence, Shenzi deliberately stopped work for three days and built what he called a "toilet". ' Something came out.
Toilets are separate for men and women.
In order to take care of the fact that there are more women than men in the tribe, there are seven pits in the women's restroom, three more than the men's restroom.
Behind the toilet, the large cesspool is surrounded by stone slabs and broken pottery, which can effectively prevent the loss of the most precious fertilizer for farmers before the emergence of chemical fertilizers.
Although Han Cheng had written "male and female" in Chinese characters on the upper wall when the toilet was first built, people still often went to the wrong toilet.
After thinking about it for a while, Han Cheng asked someone to plant a wooden stake more than one meter long at the door of the men's toilet. With this obvious difference, it is possible to eliminate the incident of going to the wrong toilet.
The second building in the courtyard is also not a house, but a rabbit circle.
Two rabbits are really tossing, basically one litter a month can be achieved.
The least was the first litter, which gave birth to five cubs, and the rest were six or more, and the most was an astonishing eight!
Moreover, the children they gave birth to became adults after more than two months. Three of the five cubs in the first litter were female rabbits, and they all gave birth to cubs one after another after more than three months. It was them, two of them gave birth to three litters each, a total of thirty-three, and the other gave birth to two litters, a total of eleven.
Four of them died in infancy.
There are four female rabbits in the three generations of rabbits. Up to now, three of them have given birth to two litters, and one has given birth to one litter. However, the one who gave birth to the first litter has a big belly now, and it may not be long before another litter can be born.
Among the four generations of rabbits, there are also three cubs...
This is indeed the endless descendants!
After raising rabbits himself and witnessing their terrifying reproduction speed, Han Cheng finally understood why rabbits in Australia became a disaster.
This reproductive ability is too abnormal!
In the tribal cave, the small world that Han Cheng built for them at first can no longer accommodate them.
And because these guys can eat and pull, the smell in the cave is bad, so after building the toilet, Han Cheng then built the rabbit circle.
In view of the rabbit's habit of digging holes, Han Cheng also used stones and broken clay pots to pave the ground of the rabbit pen during construction.
The height of the fence 30 centimeters from the ground is also covered with a layer of pottery fragments.
Prevent them from burrowing and escaping.
Around the rabbit circle, Han Cheng used the adobe built before to build a lot of rabbit nests like holes, so that they could give birth in them.
At the same time, some twigs, dead grass and mud were used to build a circle of roof, so as not to become a drowning rabbit when it rains...
Now there are almost a hundred rabbits in the tribe!
Wu who watched was stunned. He didn't expect that such two inconspicuous little things could grow to such a scale after only half a year of raising them!
And feeding these rabbits is very simple, just let the minors in the tribe get some grass from around the tribe every day.
With such daily feeding, the grass brought back from the outside turned into such a large pile of walking food, and it was the kind of meat that was readily available!
This made Wu Zai happy, but also a little annoyed. Why didn't he think of such a simple thing before?
The rabbits don't need adults to do it at all, just the children in the tribe are enough to feed them.
If such rabbits were fed earlier, how much less hunger and suffering would the tribe have suffered in the past!
I used to always love to bring witches in the cave, but now I like to come out of the cave when I have nothing to do. After walking around the yard for a while, I will unconsciously go to the edge of the rabbit circle, step on a few stones placed outside, and go into the rabbit. Look inside the circle.
It took me a long time to look at it, and when I was looking at it, I would pick up the grass piled up on the wooden raft next to the rabbit pen and throw it into it.
Watching their three-petal mouths move and eat the grass, the witch felt happy.
Because the grass you eat now will grow into meat in time!
Wu likes rabbits, but when it's time to make a move, he is not relentless at all. He is the most skilled at things like holding a rabbit ear and holding a small stick behind the rabbit ear.
Wu likes rabbits not because rabbits are cute, but because rabbits reproduce quickly, are easy to feed, and can provide a lot of meat for the tribe...
Today, ten rabbits were caught by the witch from the rabbit pen. He held up the ears, and hit them with sticks one by one behind the ears.
After all, he is the only one who knows how fat or thin the rabbit is.
The lame men who were standing by were carrying rabbits to disembowel them, pickle them with salt, then tie them up in strings of rope and hang them on the uncleared tree trunks in the courtyard, accepting Sunshine in late autumn, and then become dried rabbit...
It was Han Cheng's suggestion to slaughter the rabbit at this time.
Now is not the future, there is no such things as corn, wheat and carrots to feed the rabbits, once the winter comes, and only count on the dried grass, these guys will definitely lose their appearance.
Moreover, with so many rabbits, there will be a great demand for hay in winter, and it will be a burden to keep them. It is better to slaughter them and dry them into bacon before they lose weight.
Now it's just the first batch. After a while, after these small batches grow up, another batch will be killed.
