Chapter 350
As more and more livestock seedlings were transported to the original plane one by one, the manpower of the Blackstone tribe suddenly became a little stretched.
The main reason is that the Blackstone tribe, the stalls spread out today are really too big.
With the current limited manpower of the Blackstone Tribe, it is really impossible to devote many people to such a large-scale breeding industry as Master Niu.
After removing the cubs who had to go to school, the manpower that the Blackstone Tribe could use would not exceed 2,000 people.
As the core force of the tribe's coalition forces, the infantry phalanx of Lord Niu used up 600 people of the Blackstone tribe, which was nearly one-third of the Blackstone tribe's manpower.
Wine-making workshops, salt-making workshops, clay pottery workshops, etc., these Luolei Mountains can be said to be industrialized industries with a share of scorpion shit and poison, and consumed more than 200 people of the limited manpower of the Blackstone tribe.
Although the most elite fighters in the tribe have joined the coalition forces, the basic defense force of the Blackstone tribe, especially the guards for the major workshops, is still necessary.
As a result, there were three hundred strong men who were strictly restricted to the work of guards, unable to undertake other tasks.
In addition, the Blackstone Tribe needs personnel to manage a large number of labor teams and various logistics support personnel. This is another huge consumption of personnel, directly occupying the precious resources of more than 500 people in the Blackstone Tribe. manpower.
In the end, even if it was Kuidi and other high-level tribesmen who tried their best to squeeze the Blackstone tribe, only a few hundred people who could finally be invested in the latest breeding business.
This is still the current situation where the Blackstone tribe has handed over the 20,000 mu of cultivated land directly under the tribe to the hired laborers to take care of the sowing and daily care, so as to squeeze out the most idle manpower.
The limited number of more than one hundred people is simply a drop in the bucket for the huge population required by such a large-scale breeding industry and subsequent related processing industries, and it is completely insufficient...
The animal pens of the Black Stone Tribe, as well as pens for chickens, ducks and other birds, were placed in a small valley about eight miles away from the village.
The area of the valley is not large, and it is the size of a few miles around the sky.
So there is a doomed fact here, this valley is a temporary place to house and feed these seedlings, and then it needs to be replaced with a bigger place.
Due to the limited area, the feeding methods of the seedlings this time are all fed by artificial feeding after captivity.
With this kind of feeding method, the meat of livestock such as cattle and sheep produced in the end naturally does not have a large area of pasture, and the beef and mutton from the free range are delicious; the meat quality of chickens and ducks locked in small narrow cages is absolutely inferior to the so-called Free range chicken.
But isn't this something that can't be helped! In short, Master Niu's plan in the future is to choose a large enough place to build a so-called ecological pasture, and to feed livestock that are completely close to the wild form.
*****
On this day, Master Niu brought all the high-level officials of the tribe, and all the spare manpower, and even the kids after school had been busy for a while before feeding all the seedlings.
Developing the breeding industry on the plane of the primitive era, Master Niu would naturally not spend time and effort buying a large amount of feed from the modern plane to feed it.
But even for the Blackstone tribe, no matter how abundant the food reserves are today, they are not so extravagant that they can use all these precious grains that can be sold at sky-high prices in the modern plane to feed chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep; , In the end, the meat quality of livestock and poultry is not so good.
Fortunately, Master Niu has a breeding research institute that sells seedlings, and a complete set of breeding techniques as a gift; among them is a formula that uses various natural plants and a small amount of grain as feed.
It's just that, just harvesting grass around the tribe is a huge job.
After serving these precious seedlings, the sky was almost dark; Master Niu returned to the tribe with a mighty team. When he returned to the tribe, he would have free time to prepare some food to feed himself. belly.
Even so, it doesn't mean that today's work is over; there will be another hundred people on duty in the valley later tonight.
These people need to guard against wild beasts in the mountains and forests, rush into the animal pens to snatch away the precious seedlings, and also need to feed cattle, sheep and other livestock again in the middle of the night, so that they can grow up faster and become fatter.
In short, with the little manpower left in the Blackstone Tribe, being driven around by Master Niu is quite hard work...
"Master Niu, why don't we transfer all the people from the clay pottery workshop and hand over the work of making pottery pots to other tribes in the alliance!" Kui suggested to Master Niu.
After a pause, after taking a hard bite of the multigrain steamed bun, Kui added:
"Master Niu, you don't know how many outsiders are in the clay pottery workshop every day? I guess, they have already been familiar with the process of making clay pottery. It is not a problem to outsource this matter. No."
After hearing the words, Master Niu nodded his head, which was also eating fast, and agreed with Kui's proposal; after a day of hard work, it is simply the best way to digest food, and now he is very hungry in his stomach.
Originally, when the clay pottery workshop was first established, he had planned to outsource such low-end work, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.
But before he could continue to say something about it, Mang, who was squatting beside him, interjected: "Counting all the people in the clay pottery workshop, there are only a few dozen people; if this is the case, the manpower for the breeding is still Too bad."
Immediately afterwards, Mang suggested: "How about we mobilize a labor force that is going to be used to build defensive measures to the breeding side! Anyway, you have said it, Mr. Niu, and you will gradually transfer the breeding technology and seedlings to the farming side." , teach it to other tribes, and they are not afraid of leaking the secret.”
While speaking, Master Niu had wiped out all the food in the wooden bowl in his hand, and he wiped the oil and water on his mouth with his cuff.
Confidently said: "Don't worry about manpower, the army that went to attack the Juyan tribe will be back soon, and there will be no need to worry about manpower."
"Master Niu, you don't intend to let the elite warriors of the tribe do this, right? Isn't that a bit wasteful?" Kui Wenyan yelled.
"Of course not!" Master Niu denied Kui's guess.
In this way, the high-level officials of the Blackstone tribe became very curious!
