Long summer is poor.

However, this does not mean that the Heluo tribe is poor.

In terms of wealth, the Heluo tribe is second to none in the Dusk Forest. Of course, this wealth means that the tribe will not starve or suffer from cold, and the tribe can eat enough, not others.

"You just said to build a kiln, what's the matter?" Nanfeng asked, but he was busy eating just now, so Nanfeng didn't ask. Now that she was full and free time, she couldn't help asking more questions.

Bite by mouthful of stewed meat and fish balls, Chang Xia began to pour the river prawns into the clay pot for boiling. Seeing Chang Xia's patient actions, Nan Feng felt that she could eat three more bowls.

"I want to build my own animal den, which is different from the current one. I call it a kiln. I choose the location on the west hillside, and build a kiln against the hillside." Chang Xia said happily, without stopping Come down and stir with a wooden spoon, the river prawns in the pot will soon be dyed golden in the boiling water, with a faint fresh fragrance and a little fishy smell.

Nan Feng stared at the river prawns in the pot while listening to Chang Xia's explanation.

"If you need help, just say it." Nan Feng opened his mouth to speak, but he was reluctant to say what he blocked. After all, Chang Xia's expression made her unable to say no.

"Yeah!" Chang Xia nodded, Nan Feng's support made her very happy.

this moment.

The river prawns are already cooked in a clay pot.

Chang Xia fished out the river prawns, took the washed fruit aside, pinched it hard, and dripped a little juice into the bowl. This kind of yellow-skinned wild fruit has a sour taste. The tribe calls it sour fruit, and few people eat it. Chang Xia has hoarded a lot, and she usually doesn't eat it directly, but uses it as a seasoning.

At noon, I was too hungry.

Unexpectedly, Nanfeng put half a fan of meat into the basket at night.

She just saw it after packing up.

"Chang Xia, what are you doing with the sour fruit?" Nan Feng pouted, looking at the sour fruit in Chang Xia's hand with disgust. No one in the tribe except Changxia would collect this sour fruit.

Even if they are extremely hungry, no one picks them, and some cubs in the tribe will pick them by mistake.

"Squeeze the juice to taste. When you eat river prawns, dip them in, it tastes better." Chang Xia took a river prawn, pinched the head and shelled it, and dipped the snow-white prawn meat with a little sour juice.

Immediately, a different umami taste mixed with a little sour taste exploded directly on the taste buds. The amazing taste surprised even Chang Xia.

"How?" Shen Rong asked softly.

Chang Xia gave a thumbs up and exclaimed, "Delicious."

"Really?" Nanfeng finished the remaining soup in the bowl, peeled the shrimp like Chang Xia, hesitated to dip in the sour juice. He turned sideways and looked at Shen Rong.

Shen Rong didn't speak, dipped the shrimp meat into a little sour juice.

"Alas!"

He exclaimed in a low voice, looking at the sour juice in the bowl in surprise.

Sour fruit, an extremely sour fruit in the Dusk Forest, few orcs would eat it.

Today, Chang Xia once again opened his eyes.

"This river prawn tastes more delicious than noon!" Shen Rong lowered his head, staring at the sour juice in the bowl. He never thought that the sour sour juice, combined with river prawns, would turn into such a wonderful delicacy.

see.

Nanfeng no longer hesitated.

Peel the river prawns and dip them in the sour juice with chopsticks.

"Hey! It doesn't seem so sour?" Nan Feng's beautiful eyes were wide open, full of shock and confusion.

"Pick more sour fruits this year and save them," Chang Xia said. Sour fruit, in addition to sour juice can be used as a dipping sauce, the pulp is also delicious when pickled and dried.

Sweet and sour, soft and glutinous.

Eating, there is both the sour taste of lemon and the light fruity sweetness of hawthorn/green plum.

At the same time, it can also be used as tangerine peel for cooking.

Like ginkgo, it has a wide range of uses.

"Yes." Nan Feng agreed, and it was rare that he didn't mention Chang Xia.

This meal, Nanfeng was full.

Sit and watch Shen Rong clean up the dishes. Chang Xia took the fine rattan, measured the size of Nanfeng's feet, and skillfully weaved rattan shoes for Nanfeng.

"Chang Xia, when are you going to build the kiln?" Nan Feng asked.

She sent half a piece of meat, enough for Chang Xia and the two to eat for ten days. Even if you don't go out to gather and hunt, you won't be hungry.

Chang Xia shook his head lightly, and explained: "I want to finish building the kiln before the cold season. Tomorrow, I will go out to the salt lake to fetch salt, and pick some ginkgo fruits by the way. In the afternoon, I will start preparing the things needed to build the kiln..."

As she spoke, she turned her head to look at Nanfeng.

Building a kiln is different from an animal den.

However, some materials are required. Things like wood, stone, and resins for bonding need to be prepared in advance.

In order to build a nest, some orcs start preparations three or five years in advance.

There is wood and stone near the tribe, but the resin used to glue it is scarce. It is produced from a special tree species called oil tree. When the bark of the oil tree is cut, sticky yellowish sap will flow out. After the sap is dried, it will become a building material similar to cement. The orcs call it resin.

When this resin is heated again, it will melt.

After melting, it becomes a cement-like adhesive, which is used to build animal dens.

"Chang Xia, we need to use wood, stone and resin to build the nest, and none of these have been prepared in advance. What are you going to use to build the nest?" Nan Feng covered his twitching mouth and looked at Chang Xia helplessly. Could it be that this child is whimsical?

"I will prepare wood and stone materials. Resin is more troublesome. Can you exchange some with the tribe?" Shen Rong interrupted Nanfeng's chanting. It is not difficult to prepare wood and stone materials, but the difficulty is resin.

Chang Xia was slightly embarrassed, she seemed to have really forgotten these things.

Nanfeng raised his hand and tapped Chang Xia from the air, and said: "Use mine first for the wood and stones. Whose wood and stones are freshly cut for building nests? Resin, I will help you ask the tribe. Fish balls It just happened to be exchanged, originally, I planned to use the method of fish balls to help you replace some pottery and bone utensils."

No matter how dissatisfied, it was the cub she watched grow up.

It was rare for Chang Xia to be aggressive, and Nan Feng was reluctant to attack him.

Nanfeng has been an adult for many years.

The patriarch never stopped urging her to get married, but Nanfeng couldn't find a male he liked, so he simply dragged it.

However, the wood and stone used to build the nest.

Nanfeng started preparations when he was an adult, and this time he will let Chang Xia use it first.

"Nanfeng, that's what you need to build your nest..." Chang Xia shook his head, wanting to refuse.

Nan Feng rolled his eyes and asked, "Do you still want to build a nest? Besides, I haven't met a suitable male, so I'm not in a hurry to build a nest."

At most, living in my father's house is just being talked about.

"Chang Xia, let's use the wood and stones prepared by Nanfeng to build the nest first. Hers, I will help prepare new ones later." Shen Rong said.

Nan Feng was satisfied with Shen Rong's straightforwardness, and asked Chang Xia about his next plan.

She got up to leave.

Chang Xia sent the man away, owed his waist, and asked Shen Rong to cut the half fan of meat sent by Nanfeng into pieces. As the weather gets warmer, the meat cannot be kept for a long time, and it is easy to spoil.

"Chang Xia, are you still hungry?" Shen Rong hesitated while cutting the meat.

Chang Xia glared at him, cleaned the clay pot and put it on the stove, planning to boil the meat in oil.

It's warm, so I can't make bacon.

Smoking takes time, and it can go bad if not stored well.

So, she thought of fried meat.

Fried meat is simple to make and easy to store. In the era of tribal material simplicity, fried meat is the most suitable storage method for this season.

Cut the meat into palm-sized pieces and put them in a clay pot to boil the oil.

Wait until the meat is fried to a golden color, wait for the oil to cool down, and then pour the oil and meat into clay pots and refrigerate. This will not only prevent the meat from rotting and deteriorating, but also facilitate storage. At the same time, the fried meat tastes very good.

Soft and glutinous, with a burnt aroma.

Stir-fried wild vegetables are very delicious.

"This half leaf is too much meat, we can't finish it. I plan to fry it to make deep-fried meat, and put it in a clay pot, so I don't worry about it breaking." Chang Xia explained, and picked out a few pieces of meat that Shen Rong had cut. Put a piece of fat meat into the earthenware pot and start to boil the oil. After the oil is boiled out, put other pieces of meat in. Soon, a craving meaty smell will quickly permeate the entire animal den.

this moment.

Shen Rong was extremely thankful that Nanfeng had left.

Also, their animal dens are far away from the tribe.

Otherwise, because of this smell, no one in the whole tribe can sleep tonight.
