Chapter 8 Almost, no fish in the fish cage
Since everyone had the experience of building wooden walls yesterday, and no one went hunting specifically, all primitive people participated in the construction of wooden walls, so the construction speed was very fast. In one morning, many trees were cut down, and the primitive women also collected
More cane, more bark.
While they were working, Wang Wei found that they always looked towards the river and kept talking about whether there were any fish in the fish cages.
As time passed, their discussion became more heated.
Wang Wei said to them: "You are all talking about the fish cage. Are you curious if there are any fish in it?"
A plump primitive woman replied: "Are we talking about the fish in the river being so stupid that they can't run out after they get in?"
"I believe in fish and not that smart. Big Mouth, Wind Ear, and you, let's go to the river and have a look, while the others continue to chop down trees."
Wang Wei clicked on the plump woman, her name was Teng.
Other primitive people who were not named let out sighs of disappointment.
"What? You all want to see those fish cages?"
The primitive people expressed their willingness to go, and even the witches expressed their willingness to go.
Wang Wei had no choice. Since everyone still doubted his fishing artifact, well, in this primitive society, those fish cages were considered high-tech.
Everyone didn't have breakfast in the morning. They had been working all morning and it was time to take a rest.
So he agreed that everyone should go to see those fish cages together, hoping that there would be more fish in those fish cages to give him a face, otherwise the prestige he had just established would be lost.
Everyone hurried towards the river, and Wang Wei followed closely behind.
The two people who ran in front had big bellies and short legs. They impatiently picked up the nearest fish pot and made loud noises.
"Are there any fish?"
The people on the shore asked anxiously.
"No."
After Wang Wei heard this, he was inevitably anxious.
"Bring the fish cage over and let me take a look."
The short legs handed the fish cage to the shore, and the long hands caught it, looked inside, and let out a sigh.
He handed it to the witch casually.
The witch looked at it, shook her head, and sighed.
Other people rushed to look at the fish cage and sighed.
Wang Wei's heart continued to sink with sighs, and the car overturned. Hey, it was so embarrassing.
Until someone handed the fish cage to his hand, he took a closer look and found that there were only some rotten leaves in it and nothing else.
What to say to these primitive people?
While he was thinking about it, the big belly in the river started yelling again.
"There are fish in here, there are really fish."
Wang Wei asked Dadu to take the fish cage ashore, and everyone gathered around again. Some people were counting on their fingers.
He squeezed into the crowd and counted in his mouth. There were only three fish in this cage, but the fish were relatively large, about two or three pounds each.
Wang Wei asked Changshou to pour the fish out, and the fish that fell to the ground was jumping around desperately.
Everyone saw it clearly, with smiles on their faces and gasps of admiration.
So other people also ran to lift up the remaining fish cages in the river one by one. They immediately looked inside and kept screaming.
After dumping all the fish in the fish cages on the ground, Wang Wei counted them and found that there were 30 of them. The average fish weighed more than one kilogram each, which was thirty or forty kilograms.
Only then did he feel relieved, so he arranged for everyone to disembowel the fish by the river. He had taught the primitive people how to sharpen small stone knives, so they could clean up quickly.
Wang Wei told the primitive people not to have the gastrointestinal gills in the fish belly, but they were still reluctant to part with it.
Wang Wei wanted to throw the useless organs from the fish maws he had cleaned out directly into the river, but he thought there were too few fish in the fish cage. Could it be related to the lack of bait in it?
So he asked everyone to collect the useless organs and put them in fish cages, and planned to come back at night to see if these fish cages would yield more harvests.
The food for lunch was in place. After everyone finished eating the grilled fish, they patted their still a little empty stomachs, or touched and patted their stomachs, and everyone laughed.
Wang Wei told them that they should catch more fish at night.
The primitive people who worked in the afternoon were more energetic. With the fish cages, if Wang Wei said it, they didn't have to worry about not having enough food. Moreover, they didn't have to go hunting in dangerous places in the wild, how happy that was.
Thinking of getting a batch of fresh fish in the evening, everyone's mouth is watering.
While they were working, they kept looking at Wang Wei, but no matter how they looked, they only saw a thin man, but their admiration in their hearts also deepened little by little.
With everyone's efforts, two wooden walls were built today. In other words, by building another wall and making a door, this camp will become a small safety fortress and become safer.
Wang Wei looked at these busy primitive people and was very pleased.
In his eyes, they were all simple and kind, and he began to like this primitive life.
When it was getting dark at night, everyone gathered together consciously and prepared to go to the river to check the fish in the fish cages.
Wang Wei didn't want to dampen everyone's interest, so everyone hurried towards the river.
As expected, everyone was not disappointed, and more fish were harvested this time.
As the sky was getting dark, Wang Wei arranged for people to process only part of the fish for barbecue, which would be enough to eat at night. The other fish were not killed for the time being, and he quickly brought them back to the tribe, dug a square meter of shallow water fish pond on the edge of the wooden wall, and then filled it with leaves.
Pour water in your pocket.
In this way, there is a small fish pond in the camp where fish can be raised.
He concluded that wild beasts would invade the tribal camp at night, and the fishy smell would drive them crazy. If they took the risk of attacking, the original man would still suffer the loss.
So be especially careful at night.
After the primitive people had eaten the grilled fish, they took their time and looked at the three wooden walls that had been built. They felt very incredible one by one. They touched here and there and laughed happily. After all, they had only been here two days and they had already built the wall.
This new thing is called a wooden wall.
Wang Wei is also quite satisfied. The last wall can be built tomorrow. With the safety protection of the wooden wall, they can sleep more soundly at night, and everyone's life safety will be guaranteed.
Hua leaned closely against Wang Wei and said, "Wang, how do you know so much?"
The primitive people also focused their attention on Wang Wei, and they also wanted to know.
Wang Wei said: "You know that I came from heaven, so it is not surprising that I know more. More new things will continue to appear in the future. As long as you obey my arrangements, everyone will live better in the future."
"Can we get enough to eat?"
"Will you still be hungry?"
This is what the two women, Cao and Ye, asked. After all, eating is the most important thing, and everyone is hungry.
Wang Wei said: "There will definitely be food, and we must work together."
"Then what will we do after we repair the wooden wall?"
"After repairing the wooden walls, we need to repair the houses where everyone lives, and then we have to make various tools, such as eating bowls and drinking cups."
“What are bowls and cups?”
