Ancient Martial Ancestor

Chapter 3 Food, Clothing, Housing And Transportation

After understanding what he had to do next, Tang Wu started to take action. Food, clothing, housing, transportation and inheritance. Naturally, food, clothing, housing and transportation are the top priorities. If you don't have enough food and clothing, and you don't have enough warmth, even survival is a problem, then how can you talk about development?

The first thing to solve is the food problem. There must be enough food.

Regarding this point, it is also very simple in the eyes of modern people. Planting, breeding, fishing and hunting are all possible. Not to mention hunting and fishing, the first thing to plant is to have seeds. Don't look at the wheat, rice, corn and so on in later generations, which are very common.

But in the prehistoric world, this is something that can only be encountered. Moreover, these grains were not like this at the beginning. The grains we see now have been cultivated from generation to generation. Just like corn, regardless of its origin, even its appearance is not like this at the beginning.

Corn started out with very small seeds and cobs that were not even edible as food. Later, after cultivation, we have the corn we have now. Although this is not necessarily the case in the prehistoric world, it is still not easy to obtain. At least after two years here, Tang Wu found no edible food.

"Then collect wild fruits and edible seeds first!" Tang Wu thought.

Most of the seeds of plants are edible. Take the common foxtail grass, for example. Its seeds can be eaten as flour if crushed (the author is from a rural area and guarantees that it is 100% edible. But the taste is very bad!). However, due to production, taste and nutritional reasons, it cannot be used as a staple food. But now, it can also be used as a supplement to insufficient food.

So, Tang Wu went out into the wild and started looking for edible seeds. The first thing I saw was the foxtail grass. This plant was very common in both the previous life and the prehistoric world.

However, Tang Wu did not collect them. On the one hand, there were many of them and they could be collected at any time. On the other hand, it is not Tang Wu’s ideal food. Its seeds are too small and taste too bad. Unless absolutely necessary, Tang Wu is not willing to let his tribe eat the seeds.

Later, Tang Wu discovered a lot of seeds. Although Tang Wu also collected a lot, he was not very satisfied. until……

"This...this...this is primitive millet!" Tang Wu's eyes widened, and he was dumbfounded at the handful of yellow-orange plants in front of him, half as tall as a man.

When it comes to millet, many friends in cities may be a little confused. But what about Xiaomi? That's right, millet is millet, also known as Liang or Ji. Ji is the grain in Jiangshan Sheji. From the grain to the grain, it is the growth of hundreds of grains. Ji refers to millet. Equating millet with the country shows the status of millet among ancient people.

Strictly speaking, millet also belongs to Setaria genus, but it is just a different species of Setaria genus. Its taste, yield and nutrition are much stronger than those of ordinary foxtail grass. Therefore, it has been the main food of Chinese civilization for a long time.

"Okay, that's great. With corn, the human race's food is no longer a single animal." Tang Wu was very excited. This not only meant that the human race had another thing to eat, but also that the human race The food source will be more stable and the nutrition will be more balanced.

Although animals are delicious, eating meat alone is not very good for the human body because there are many nutrients needed for life. Moreover, hunting is full of too many uncertainties. Sometimes it is very possible to be busy for a whole day and not be able to catch a single prey.

Moreover, that’s it if it was in the previous life. But in the prehistoric world, animals are all descendants of the Monster Race. If they are hunted on a large scale, they may offend the Monster Race. Today's human race does not have the power to fight against the Monster Race. Therefore, we can only try to reduce conflicts as much as possible now. That kind of quarreling with heaven and earth, and being tough when you come up is not allowed.

After finding millet, Tang Wu couldn't wait to catch all the seeds. After that, I searched for a long time and finally stopped after filling up a whole animal skin. Although the seeds are heavy, Tang Wu's mood is happy. After returning to the tribe with a heavy load of seeds, Tang Wu locked himself in a cave.

That’s right, humans still live in caves now!

There is nothing we can do about it. Building a house seems simple now, but it was very difficult in primitive society. Without enough materials, building a house is difficult. The only things that can be used to build houses now are stones and trees. But how do you collect or cut stone, how do you cut down trees?

The human race does not have such conditions. Because the current human race cannot refine metal, let alone metal equipment.

"But now it seems that we must teach humans to build houses and weave clothes!" Tang Wu thought secretly while using stones to shell the corn.

Shelling corn is not easy, especially without the right tools. But Tang Wu was very patient. He took the trouble to gently crush the shelled corn, and his eyes were shining as he watched the grains of corn fall out of the shell.

However, as the corn shelling progressed, many tribesmen gathered around curiously. Looking at the naked tribesmen around him, both men and women, and feeling that no one had their own privacy, Tang Wu decided to teach the tribesmen to build houses and weave clothes after getting the corn.

Today’s human race all live in caves, but how many caves are there? How big is it? How many people can live there? Moreover, the cave is dark and damp, which is very unfavorable for human habitation. Therefore, it is imperative to build houses, which is why the sages and the ancestors of humanity created these.

Weaving clothes is a delicate job, and the current human race does not have such conditions. However, Tang Wu only taught them simple weaving, and he believed that the humans could learn it. The first Heavenly Human Race was definitely smarter than those who came after. It's just because of the lack of knowledge that he appears ignorant.

It took Tang Wu two full days to shell all the corn, and he only got about a hundred kilograms of corn. However, Tang Wu is already very satisfied. After the house is built and clothing is invented, he can continue to collect.

"Next, let's start with building a relatively simple house first!" Tang Wu stood up, full of longing and expectation for the future.
