When Zhao Qian heard that Liu Yun was going to make compressed biscuits, his first reaction was that Sister Yun was so awesome.
Although the texture and taste of compressed biscuits are not very good, it is undeniable that they are the best food in extreme environments. They have a long shelf life. When you are hungry, you will feel full after eating a little bit, making you more resistant to hunger.
.
If we could make compressed biscuits, we might be able to survive this cold winter.
Zhao Qian asked: "Sister Yun, is it difficult to make this compressed biscuit? Can the tribe make it?"
Liu Yun smiled and shook her head, "Do you think compressed biscuits are a product of modern industry?"
Zhao Qian was startled and asked, "Isn't it?"
"of course not!"
Liu Yun told Zhao Qian: "In fact, compressed biscuits appeared a long time ago. Food similar to compressed biscuits is recorded in detail in the military book "Wu Jing Zong Yao" in the Northern Song Dynasty, so the production method is not difficult.
.”
Wang Qianqian was surprised and said: "My ancestor is so powerful!"
"More powerful than you think."
Liu Yun smiled at Wang Qianqian and continued: "Compressed biscuits are nothing more than condensing high-calorie, high-fat, and high-energy things together through compression. This is not difficult for us."
Zhao Qian nodded in agreement, "You have found the raw materials for making white sugar before. As long as the quantity is sufficient, you can make large amounts of white sugar."
Liu Yun said: "As for grease, you can use Yuan Beast blood and Yuan Beast meat. For ordinary people, Yuan Beast blood and Yuan Beast meat contain huge energy."
Zhao Qian frowned and said, "So, what's missing now is starch, which should be the hardest to find!"
Although there are many plants containing starch, such as rice, wheat, sweet potatoes, potatoes, and yams, he has never seen these things in this world.
He does not deny that these plants exist in the world, but without large-scale planting, these plants are scattered throughout the forest.
But now there are only thirteen days left, which is not enough time to find enough plants.
Liu Yun nodded and said: "Yes, this is indeed the most difficult."
Wang Qianqian asked worriedly: "What should we do?"
Liu Yun looked at Zhao Qian and asked, "Have you ever heard of Xiguye?"
"Sago?"
Zhao Qian's brain was spinning rapidly, and then his eyes lit up and he said: "Sago palm is a tree rich in starch. One tree can produce ninety kilograms of starch. In some countries, sago palm is rice."
The sago palm is a very unpopular plant. Except for wild survival enthusiasts like him, normal people would never remember this plant.
Even he wouldn't have been able to figure it out if Liu Yun hadn't reminded him.
After Zhao Qian finished speaking, he suddenly said: "Sister Yun, what do you mean, we are looking for Xiguye?"
Liu Yun nodded, "The only question now is, are there trees like sago palm in this forest?"
Having said this, the three of them looked at the Wolf King at the same time.
Because the two of them spoke Mandarin, the Wolf King couldn't understand what they were saying.
The Wolf King felt the gazes of the three people and thought they were waiting for his answer, so he said impatiently: "Don't worry, let me think about it again."
"Master Guardian, you can think about it slowly, we are not in a hurry." Liu Yun smiled and continued: "I just want to ask, is there a strange plant in this forest?"
"What strange plant?" asked the Wolf King.
"This plant can only survive for more than ten years. When flower spikes grow on the top and begin to bear fruit, the plant will die." Liu Yun thought for a while and continued: "When this plant dies, the trunk
It will become hollow, as if it has been hollowed out."
After hearing this, the Wolf King thought for a moment and asked, "Is the tree of death you are looking for?"
"Death tree?"
Zhao Qian and Liu Yun were stunned, frowned and asked, "Is this kind of tree dangerous?"
The Wolf King shook his head and said: "That's not true. This kind of tree can easily die inexplicably, so it is called the death tree."
Zhao Qian breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Are there many such trees in the forest?"
The Wolf King replied: "It's not too much, but you can still find some if you need it."
Zhao Qian said hurriedly: "We just need this kind of plant, as many as we need."
The Wolf King hesitated and said: "If you want this plant, I can agree to your conditions."
Zhao Qian was startled and asked in confusion: "Why? Didn't you refuse me to chop down trees before?"
The Wolf King explained: "This kind of tree will die in more than ten years. Even if you don't cut it down, you will die yourself. Why don't you take it?"
Hearing this, Zhao Qian smiled and said nothing.
In the eyes of the Wolf King, the sago palm is a strange tree.
But in fact, this is how sago coconut reproduces. The reason why the trunk is hollow is because the fruit absorbs the starch in the trunk. If the fruit falls to the ground, it will grow into a new sago coconut.
"Thank you, Lord Guardian!"
Zhao Qian thanked the Wolf King and immediately said to Wang Qianqian and Liu Yun: "I will go back to the tribe quickly and let people collect sago coconuts."
Wang Qianqian asked: "What about the two of us? We're not going to stay, are we?"
Zhao Qian thought for a while and said: "The termites have not been completely solved yet. You have to stay and deal with the termites. Sister Yun needs to follow the Wolf King to find out the location of the sago coconut first. After the people from our tribe arrive, they can just cut down the tree."
Already."
Wang Qianqian said displeased: "Okay then!"
Zhao Qian smiled and said: "Don't worry, you and Sister Yun won't be able to stay in the forest for long. I will take you back before winter comes."
Wang Qianqian nodded, and then said: "Don't forget to promise me that you will have white skin, beautiful face, and water spirit fruit, and you won't be able to lose even one of them."
Zhao Qian vowed: "Don't worry, no one will be missing from you."
After saying that, he quickly hurried back to the tribe.
Returning to the tribe, he directly found Erya and told Erya that the food problem had been solved.
"solved?"
Erya looked at the happy Zhao Qian with a tone of disbelief in his tone.
He never thought that Zhao Qian could solve the food problem.
After all, if the food problem were so easy to solve, tribes wouldn't freeze to death every year.
Zhao Qian nodded excitedly and said, "It was Sister Yun's idea. She found an edible tree in the forest. With a little processing, it can survive the whole winter."
After hearing this, Erya didn't speak for a while.
Zhao Qian didn't know that Yanshan went out to exchange for food with two high-level healing dominoes. He only thought that Erya was too happy and said with a smile: "Teacher, look at you, you are so happy that you are speechless."
"..."
Erya was silent for a while, waved towards Zhao Qian and said: "Time is running out now, you should lead your tribe to cut down such trees first!"
"yes!"
Zhao Qian stood up, found Tan Luo and a slave, took the tribal beasts with him, and headed towards the forest.
