Lord of Industrialization

Almost every household in the tribe was busy processing the prey, and Frederick was pulled home by Sissen to help.

Sissen contributed the most in the hunting, and was allocated a male bear and a stag, which had about 200 kilograms of meat without the internal organs.

This meat seemed a lot, but he had a wife and three children at home, and the average for a family of five was not much.

Such collective hunting was not something you could go on whenever you wanted, and it was only once in summer and autumn. The rest of the time, you could only hunt small animals such as rabbits, pheasants and squirrels around alone.

It was not impossible to go deep into the forest alone, but you didn't know if you could come back.

Sissen's eldest son was a fisherman. Today, he was fishing at sea with his future father-in-law, and his fiancée, Fly, came to help clean up the prey.

Frederick was a little surprised that this young girl was good at skinning.

Skinning is a technical job. The depth of the knife cut on the skin did not exceed half of the thickness of the skin, the wound exceeded half of the thickness of the skin but did not penetrate, and the cut had holes. These mistakes would reduce the quality of the fur and could not be sold at a good price.

There are also requirements for the position of cutting the fur. Not only does the body need to be cut along the central axis, but the limbs must also be cut straight. If they are not symmetrical when unfolded, the quality will be affected.

The knife in Fuli's hand is fast, accurate and steady. Every cut is not too much or too little. To be able to reach this level at such a young age can only be said to be gifted.

Frederick was cleaning the internal organs on the side. These are not easy to preserve for a long time. Tonight, a pot of stew will be eaten for a few days.

He looked at Fuli who was working hard from time to time, which made Sisen nervous, fearing that he would steal his son's girlfriend.

What Sisen didn't expect was that hundreds of years later, in the land of the north, Fuli's name was more respected than Frederick, and every town had a street named after her.

On the other side, Sisen and his wife cut the meat, refined the fat, prepared some of the cut meat strips for bacon, and washed the other part of the meat strips and put them in a wooden barrel, and poured in the prepared whey.

When making cheese, whey is a byproduct, and people often drink it as a substitute for water.

Because whey contains a large number of lactic acid bacteria, which can kill other bacteria, people here use whey to preserve meat for a long time.

At the same time, meat marinated with whey is more tender and tastes better.

Sissen's second daughter was baking pancakes in the kitchen, and the youngest daughter washed the vegetables she had just picked and prepared to stew them with the offal.

The latitude of the Bear Claw Tribe is relatively high. Now the daytime starts at 4 o'clock and ends at 23 o'clock, which is about 19 hours. There will be polar day in the northern part. People follow the law of life from sunset to rest. The prey has been processed when it is dark and dinner is served.

Frederick is not used to this lifestyle, but when he thinks about the 19-hour night in winter here, he can't do anything in hibernation at home, so he can only rush for time in summer, just like the construction period delayed by rain on the construction site is rushed back on sunny days.

While eating, Frederick felt the difference in the local lifestyle.

Sissen's wife calculated how long the family's food was expected to last, and determined the amount for two meals a day. When the meals were divided, Sissen and his eldest son, two strong laborers in the family, ate 60% to 70%, and the women and children shared the rest.

Frederick was a distinguished guest, and was treated the same as Sissen. There was an extra squid in his bowl, which was brought back by their eldest son.

Sissen kept asking Frederick all kinds of questions. He was very curious about the world in the south, but he almost drowned when he fell into the water when he was a child, and he was severely seasick as soon as he stepped on the deck of the ship.

After answering "put medicine into the blood vessels", Frederick asked Fuli: "Are you interested in being a doctor?"

"Me?" Fuli took a while to react to Frederick's talk.

Sissen also looked at Frederick with curiosity and surprise, thinking that the big man with tens of thousands of cows at home must have different ideas from himself, so he would wait and see.

The head of the family didn't speak, and everyone else shut up obediently.

Fuli shook her head and said, "I can't do it. I can't be a doctor. I can't even tell the difference between wheat seedlings and weeds."

There are few talents here. For example, Lasong's wife Uli is a pharmacist and a doctor at the same time. The first step to becoming a pharmacist is to recognize herbs.

When Fuli was a child, she left weeds behind when she weeded the wheat field at home and was almost beaten to death by her parents.

Frederick said to her, "I just saw you peeling the skin very accurately and steadily, so I think you have the talent to be a surgeon."

"Some diseases of people need to be cut open to treat, but if the doctor's hand is not stable, cut too much, or cut wrong, it will cause extra pain to the patient, or even death."

"When I go to Cedar Cathedral this time, I will talk to the chief priest about expanding the number of international students. Medical students are a very important part of it. You can sign up then."

Sison was the first to understand what Frederick meant and asked seriously, "Can I remove the arrow stuck in the body?"

It is not difficult to remove the arrow, but the difficult part is that the patient is still alive after it is removed.

Frederick replied, "Yes, this is one of the basic treatment contents."

Sissen put the half bowl of bear offal stewed with peas on the table, folded his hands and thought seriously.

His wife, children and Fuli dared not say a word, and the youngest daughter hugged the bowl tightly and stopped eating, waiting for him to make a decision.

Seeing this, Frederick stopped eating and stopped holding the bowl.

"Oh, don't worry about me." Sissen waved his hand immediately after noticing that he stopped, "You eat yours, I'm going to go out for a while."

Sissen didn't eat either, and went out with a box of happy water.

Frederick didn't have anything to say, so he took a few bites of his own portion of dinner.

Sisson's wife wanted to help fill another bowl, but Frederick said he was full and immediately withdrew.

There are no street lights in the tribe, and the windows of the houses here are generally small. The roads are dark, and fluffy cats lie on the roadside or on the roof waiting for mice to appear.

The street was filled with the aroma of cooking meat. From time to time, the voices of men bragging about their heroic hunting and the exclamations of children came from the houses. In some houses, the great harmony of life had already begun.

Several rooms looked deserted, with only the sounds of women crying and men sighing.

Some people have little success in hunting and only get a few pheasants or rabbits, not even squirrels with more expensive fur. They can only starve for the rest of the day or risk hunting around by themselves.

If the tribe had a surplus of food in winter, they might be able to help them, but they only had some soybean meal and salt, so they could survive until next spring.

Frederick turned around and walked to the back of the church when he saw Sisson and another man of similar age knocking on Larsen's door. One of them was carrying happy water, and the other was carrying two large fishes.

The two just handed the things to Larsen, said a few words and left without entering the door, leaving Larsen confused.

Frederick smiled after seeing it. The man with Sisson must be Fuli's father. This matter is probably related to the church's selection of people to study abroad soon.
