Chapter 125 Unexpected news
Kong Er's progress was not very smooth, but the tribe was in a busy situation.
After Kong Yidao went to transport the copper mine, Wang Lang began to lead the remaining tribe members to plant corn. After worshiping the gods, Wang Lang gave the order and lit the dried weeds with torches.
The raging fire soared into the sky, and layers of heat waves forced people to retreat far away. Looking at the amazing fire, everyone was very excited. As long as the fire was extinguished, they would start planting corn.
These people who join, both the elderly and the children, are eager to try to sow seeds soon.
The fire was less than 20 acres, and it took three or four hours to go out. Wang Lang touched the burned dark land. The ground is very hot now. It is impossible to plant at such a temperature. You can only try planting after cooling for a day.
In order to sow this time, Wang Lang made many bone slabs used to dig pits during this period. Although there were already copper shovels in the tribe, it was obviously not very convenient to dig seed pits with copper shovels. I guess the bone slabs are more convenient.
The next day, the dark land had cooled down, and the burned land became much softer. Wang Lang poked the ground casually and dug a small hole. He nodded with satisfaction. Such a soft land was not too difficult to plant even if it was not overturned.
"Start seeds!" Wang Lang shouted loudly.
Everyone who had prepared a long time ago walked into the field with bones. Each of them had a skin pocket tied around their waists, and the seeds were placed in this pocket.
A planting team of nearly thirty people lined up in a row, bowing their waists and burying the seeds seriously into the dug soil pit.
Wang Lang asked people to dig a hole at every distance of their feet, so that every millet seedling can absorb the nutrients in the land.
People in the primitive era were simple. Although they were collective labor, no one thought about being cheated. If they were discovered to work without care and were rejected by someone, it would be difficult to stay in this tribe. The pressure of survival made them the best labor force.
Under the hard work of people, people planted four or five acres of land in one day. Since growing grain is the most important thing for the tribe, Wang Lang stopped training every evening and tried his best to plant it before the rainy season arrived.
Farming is boring and boring. People feel bored after working facing the loess and backs on the sky for three days. However, in order not to be hungry in the future, they can only grit their teeth and persevere. The less and less land is the motivation to persevere. As long as they plant it to the boundaries, they can be liberated.
One day later, all the thirty acres of land were planted, and people thought they could finally breathe a sigh of relief, but Wang Lang's words made them sigh.
In the previous extensive planting, we just threw the seeds into the soil and ignored them. In this way, many seeds cannot grow. If you want high yields of grain, fertilization and watering are essential. However, the manure of humans and animals is not enough for fertilization. We can only ensure the seed germination rate by watering.
After planting the land, Wang Lang took these people with a shoulder pole to carry pots to the river to get water and water the ground.
Five days later, Kong Yi drove the deer cart that transported the copper mine back to the tribe. The three vehicles transported back nearly seven or eight kilograms of copper ore in total. With this copper, more weapons and tools can be made.
Wang Lang arranged some people to be responsible for smelting copper and making weapons.
While people were watering the ground, two riders rushed to the north, raising waves of dust.
At first, people thought that Kong Er and the others were looking for dinosaur eggs, but after getting closer, they saw that it was dark clouds and strong teeth.
Many of the newly joined tribe members had never been to the grassland tribe, so they naturally didn't know Jianya and the others. Looking at the two strangers, everyone became nervous, holding the tools in their hands and staring at the two of them vigilantly.
"Don't be nervous, they are members of our tribe on the grassland." Wang Lang said loudly.
After hearing that it was his own person, everyone felt relieved and put down the tools in their hands.
"Why are you here? Is there something wrong with the grassland?" Wang Lang asked.
Jianya jumped off the deer and said, "There is nothing happening to us, but Fanxing seems to be about to give birth. I'm here to tell you this time."
Upon hearing this, Wang Lang was stunned and opened his mouth wide in surprise.
Jianya didn't expect that Wang Lang would have such a big reaction when he heard this news. Hongyu was also pregnant. He didn't feel anything to be excited after becoming a father. He looked at Wang Lang in a daze and said, "Lang, are you okay!"
Wang Lang came back to his senses, trembled with excitement, grabbed the firm-toothed arm and said, "Are you saying true?"
Seeing his leader looking like a mad person, the people watching the fun on the side felt something was wrong, so they picked up the shoulder pole that carried water beside them and glared at Jianya and the two of them.
The scene scared the two of them, and Jianya swallowed, saying, "Of course it's true, but Lang, you can't let these people put down what they have on their hands, otherwise we may not be able to go back alive."
Wang Lang looked back at the tribe members behind him who were facing a great enemy, and smiled awkwardly and said, "Don't be nervous, everyone is all their own people. I just heard the good news and was a little excited."
Everyone looked at Wang Lang who was extremely excited, a leader who had always been very calm, and didn't know if there was any good news that could make him lose his composure.
He is about to become a father. To be honest, Wang Lang himself feels that he is not ready yet. If we calculate based on the age of that world, he is just twenty years old this year, and he is less than the legal age for marriage, but now he has become a father.
In addition to being excited, Wang Lang was more worried about Fanxing's safety. In this era of completely natural childbirth, he did not know how high the mortality rate of having children was. If he was not lucky, he would be a corpse and two lives.
Wang Lang didn't dare to think about it anymore. He was as anxious as a grave and wanted to fly back to his residence in the Dao Grassland immediately. He asked Lin Huo to lead two deer and prepare to arrive there overnight. Although he didn't know how to deliver the baby, he would never feel at ease when his wife was not around when she gave birth.
Without having a lot of greetings with Jianya and the others, he handed over the tribe's affairs to Kong Yi, and then walked with Lin Huo and rushed to the grassland residence.
Jianya looked at Wang Lang, who ran away without saying a few words. Jianya couldn't help but mutter, "Isn't it just a baby? It's like the sky is about to fall."
Kong Yi heard this and smiled and said, "You don't have children. When you have children, you will know what a father is."
Wuyun and Jianya heard this and looked at each other. Both of them realized that there was something wrong. They hurriedly hugged Kong Yi's neck and asked, "Tell me quickly, what good thing did you do."
Being sandwiched by two strong men, Kong Yi had no choice but to tell Kong Yue about it, which made the two of them amazed.
