Chief don't slap in the face

Chapter 194
"of course can!"

Xia Ye was afraid that Lu Lingxi would have an affair with him.

"Aren't you going to ask me what I'm going to do?"

Lu Lingxi blinked, feeling Xia Ye's importance.

"You are Chaoge's Minister of Education, you can do anything!"

Xia Ye gave a compliment.

"Minister of Education?"

Lu Niang was surprised: "I thought it was a great prophet!"

"Oh, the occupation is similar, anyway, it is responsible for the work of education and culture!"

Xia Ye explained.

"Education? You think a lot!"

Lu Lingxi was full of emotions. In this era, the first thing people want to live is to have enough food, and only the children of noble families have the capital to learn.

"Education can't be popularized yet, first select excellent students and conduct centralized teaching!"

Education is a long way to go, and it costs too much money. With Chaoge's current wealth, Xia Ye is not enough to squander it, so his idea is very simple, to train a group of existences similar to @@卫生.

The age is between fifteen and 25 years old, with strong learning ability, and the stage when the body is about to reach its peak and is relatively capable of playing.

Xia Ye has been to too few places, so he doesn't know how the country established by the eight surnames works. Looking at the Xia family alone, it is still a backward war model based on the family.

When there is no war, most men generally live by hunting, and they travel together at most. If there are children of the right age at home, they will bring them for training.

If a war breaks out, adult warriors will be called to join the clan army. At this time, the tribe will be responsible for three meals a day, and children of the right age will also be recruited, but the food will be halved.

"Your approach will increase Chaoge's investment!"

Lu Lingxi thought about it, but his eyes soon lit up, realizing the advantages of this move.

"Children in this age group have about the same food intake as adults, but they have too little fighting and hunting experience, their ability to obtain food is not good, and their mortality rate is also extremely high. However, once they receive professional training, their survival rate will be greatly improved. , and will become an immediate combat force within a few years."

Xia Ye glanced at Lu Lingxi. As expected of a wise woman, Lu Niang quickly discovered the benefits of doing so, but the disadvantages were also great.

"Yes, at least three years. During this period, the children don't have to give birth. They spend all their time learning how to fight and trying to improve themselves."

Xia Ye gritted his teeth. This decision means that the tribe has to feed these Guo @@卫生 for three years and let the family pay for it?Then they will be driven out by their parents to hunt and make money the next day.

Fortunately, there is a logistics base in Taoyuan Township, otherwise Xia Ye would not dare to mess around like this.

Lu Lingxi looked at Xia Ye with a surprised expression. This young man was full of fantastic ideas. Because of his status as a wise man, Lu Niang also had contact with some tribal chiefs, and some people wanted to keep her, but Even those men who have been great chiefs for more than ten years or even decades do not have Xia Ye's foresight and courage.

You know, Xia Ye is only a 16-year-old boy, and at this time, the most important thing for others to think about is how to fill their stomachs.

"I see!"

Lu Niang suddenly understands why Elena is such a wise person, why she chooses to join Chaoge, because there is a future here!
"By the way, what do you want land for?"

Xia Ye was afraid that Lu Lingxi would do nothing. The more imprints she left on Chaoge, the deeper the bond would be, and the less likely she would leave in the future.

"I'm going to build a tree house!"

Lu Lingxi said bluntly: "I have already chosen the place."

"tree house?"

Xia Ye frowned.

"Yeah, I still like living in nature. It's still too noisy here."

Lu Lingxi looked at the noisy tribe. Although she was energetic, it didn't match her personality. She likes to be quiet.

"No problem, where are you going to build it? I'll ask someone to help!"

Xia Ye immediately became happy, which meant that Lu Niang was going to settle down.

"unnecessary!"

The place Lu Lingxi chose is about 10 minutes walk from the main city. It is an ancient red leaf forest. Looking at the red leaf trees that are enough for several people to hug, they have grown for at least a thousand years.

After selecting an area the size of a football field, Lu Lingxi took a small stone knife and cut open the skins of dozens of trees, then buried some fingernail-sized seeds in it, and then carved some totems on the bark.

Use some kind of colored paint on the ground to replace the totem, and place stones at important positions to depict the totem.

After a busy day in Rushi, on a misty morning, Lu Lingxi sang a song. Her voice was ethereal and melodious, like a lark singing.

Green fluorescence floated out, like fireflies.

Crunch!Crunch!
The red-leaved trees in the totem array twisted, their trunks swelled, some became like lanterns, and some vines sprouted, entangled together like braids, and gradually, one by one The chic tree house was born.

The entire construction time lasted a full three hours.

After the singing was over, Lu Lingxi was already sweating profusely, his body softened, and he fell to the ground.

"Mother Deer!"

Xia Ye was startled, and quickly hugged Lu Lingxi.

Touching Lu Niang's soft body, Xia Ye's heart skipped a beat, and an inexplicable emotion grew in his chest.

"I'm fine, just rest for a few days!"

Lu Lingxi pushed Xia Ye away, looked at the small tribe in front of him, and felt a little emotional. I hope this time, I can live for a few more years.

"Oh!"

Xia Ye was a little disappointed, but quickly adjusted his mood and helped Lu Niang decorate the tree house.

There are more than 20 tree houses in total, with a size of about [-] square meters, which is equivalent to a small bedroom.

"It's mainly paper, ink and pen, everything else doesn't matter."

Lu Lingxi's requirements for daily necessities are not very high. She will be very happy if she has a straw mat: "The tree house over there is for you."

"Really?"

When Xia Ye was happy, he couldn't help but hugged Lu Niang, spun her around a few times, and then felt something was wrong, so he quickly put her down.

"Go and clean up your treehouse!"

Lu Lingxi didn't notice Xia Ye's emotions at all, she still had a lot of things to do, but soon, she fell into a heated discussion with Xia Ye again.

"Hatch eggs?"

Elena felt that Xia Ye was a bit whimsical.

"Although our tribe has caught a lot of chickens, ducks and birds, can they hatch eggs, and are they out of human control?"

Jia Duo didn't understand.

"You don't need to hatch with chickens or ducks. I'm talking about artificial hatching, oh, it's human hatching!"

Xia Ye explained.

"How do people hatch eggs?"

Eileen was overjoyed, even if it was a hen, it would only cuddle at a specific time, not hatching whenever it wanted to.

"Incubating an egg requires a constant temperature. What is the temperature? It is the degree of hot and cold you feel. According to my estimation, it is about 37 to [-] degrees!"

Xia Ye doesn’t know how to incubate eggs, but it can be estimated: “The normal body temperature of a human being is around 37 degrees, but a person cannot hatch an egg while holding it, so it should be higher than this, but if it is above [-] degrees, the fertilized eggs will definitely be killed died."

"Body temperature? Fertilized eggs? 37 degrees?"

Elena and Jia Duo were dumbfounded, but Lu Lingxi's eyes glowed, murmuring these terms, and immediately asked Xia Ye to explain them.

"The question now is, how do you find the right temperature to incubate the eggs and keep it there until the chickens and ducks hatch?"

Xia Ye had a headache: "I plan to use the hot springs in Taoyuan Township to incubate eggs, but the heat value is too unstable."

"I can do this. I know several plants that are very sensitive to changes in cold and heat, and the leaves will change color."

Lu Lingxi has been traveling and has collected many animal and plant specimens.

"Great, isn't this a natural thermometer!"

Xia Ye was overjoyed.

"Thermometer? Great, another new word!"

Lu Niang immediately took notes with a brush on the bamboo paper bound by cowhide.

"I will arrange two hard-working slaves to help you!"

Xia Ye is already imagining that Chaoge has endless eggs.

"Wait, there is another biggest problem, if there are really hundreds of chickens and ducks, how to feed them?"

Jia Duo is worried.

Chaoge's chickens and ducks now just enclose a piece of land, let them run around, and find food for themselves. If the number is too large, food will be a big problem.

"That's right, you can't feed them food, right?"

Eileen also frowned, people can't get enough to eat these days, there is no food left over to feed the chickens, so the nobles keep a few chickens for eating eggs and entertaining guests.

"I thought about it a long time ago, feed the maggots!"

At this moment, Xia Ye is very grateful to the TV station for helping the poor and helping farmers. He watched one episode, which taught farmers how to raise chickens to get rich, including the feeding method of using maggots as feed.

"maggot?"

The corners of Jiaduo and Elena's mouths twitched.

"You mean the maggots on the corpse after the animal dies?"

Lu Lingxi didn't feel disgusted, and was completely serious about academic discussions.

"almost!"

Xia Ye nodded.

"no!"

Elena immediately vetoed it: "Although the maggots multiply quickly, they are very dirty, and people will die if they eat them!"

"It will die because the environment is too dirty, carrying bacteria and virus-causing toxins, but after special breeding, after more than ten generations of elimination, it will be safe."

Xia Ye's popular science: "The maggots I'm talking about here are fly maggots. Don't underestimate them, they are high in protein!"

"You are the great chief, you have the final say!"

Elena didn't believe it, but Jia Duo forced herself to believe it out of her trust in Xia Ye. There was no way, she was an adult after all, and she was the chief of the female warriors. She already had her own three views, and it was impossible to blindly believe anything Xia Ye talk.

Lu Lingxi, on the other hand, was quite interested and took the initiative to accept the experiment.

Xia Ye wrote down what he knew, and gave special instructions: "The most feared thing about raising chickens and ducks is all kinds of flu plagues, so once you find that chickens and ducks are sick, you should bury them or burn them to death immediately, and you must not cook them!"

"Ok!"

Looking at Xia Ye's beautiful handwriting on the bamboo paper, Lu Lingxi always felt that Xia Ye had used a brush before, but then again, bamboo paper is really convenient.

Such a sheet can write a lot of words, otherwise it would take two days to engrave the bamboo slips and the knowledge points Xia Ye said.

"Your handwriting is so beautiful, have you practiced it before?"

Elena is also learning to write recently. After all, unlike bamboo slips, brush calligraphy needs to be practiced.

"Ha ha!"

Xia Ye recalled the fear of being dominated by calligraphy lessons when he was a child: "This kind of calligraphy is called Shoujinti, do you want to learn it?"
