Chapter 110 Follow-up Arrangement
The pheasant’s unexpected stupidity made Zhou Xu burst into laughter.
Wang Chuan and the others couldn't hold it back for a moment, and they also started laughing. Suddenly, the camp was filled with laughter.
After almost laughing, Zhou Xu coughed twice.
“Anyway, that’s pretty much it. As long as you cut off the tip of the pheasant’s wing, it will basically not be able to fly.”
Zhou Xu has never done the work of raising pheasants. At most, he helped his grandmother feed a few old hens at home in the countryside.
Of course, the specific work content is limited to throwing leftovers on the ground and that's it.
Under this premise, the reason why Zhou Xu knows this piece of knowledge is the same as the reason why he knew some knowledge about rabbit raising before.
That is, he wanted to keep a pet before, one that could fly in the sky, run on the ground, or swim in the water. He had researched all the things he could keep.
Pheasants have not been studied, but he has studied parrots and munia.
After some research, he felt that raising birds was too noisy, and there was also a problem with feather powder, and he also had rhinitis, so he successfully persuaded himself to quit.
But before that, he had done a lot of relevant homework.
So it is known that many people who raise parrots and munias choose to have their feathers clipped in order to ensure that their pets will not fly away accidentally.
That is to say, cut off the feather at the end of the wings. As a result, they will basically be unable to fly, and they will only flap twice in the air at most.
At the same time, doing so will not cause harm to pets.
In this way, Zhou Xu was thinking at that time, since they are all birds, the structure of their wings must be similar.
Parrots, birds with excellent flying abilities, will lose their ability to fly after their feathers are clipped. Pheasants, which have poor flying abilities to begin with, will lose their ability to fly after their feathers are clipped. Can't you just be a free agent?
Facts have proved that this is indeed the case.
For Wang Chuan and the others, this is undoubtedly a new discovery.
To be honest, in their hearts, Wang Luchong, as the leader, is already like a god.
Although he is dead now, and they have no choice but to submit to the new leader in order to survive, this does not affect Wang Luchong's status in their hearts.
No one thinks that the problems that their former leader failed to solve can be solved by the new leader.
But now, the reality is directly in front of us.
He didn't know what other tribe members were thinking now, but Wang Chuan himself was still in a very complicated mood at the moment.
During this period, Zhou Xu didn't have many ideas. After arranging the matter, he quickly turned his attention to the fence.
"Wang Chuan, did you just say that you made fences before? Are those fences still there?"
"Yes."
Wang Chuan nodded quickly.
While talking, Wang Chuan led Zhou Xu to the outskirts of the camp, and saw fences standing there on the edge. It seemed that they planned to surround the entire camp.
Watching this scene, Zhou Xu was speechless.
He could roughly guess what Wang Luchong was thinking at that time.
That is, the fence has already been made. If it is demolished, wouldn’t it be a waste of time and labor?
If you don’t plan to dismantle it, you might as well use it to surround the camp. If you surround it in a circle, it can somewhat improve the camp’s defense capabilities.
From the perspective of not wasting time and labor and improving the defense capabilities of the camp, there is actually nothing wrong with what he did. But Zhou Xu still has to say that this guy really likes to do useless things.
Let's not talk about the defense that can be improved by such a thin fence. It is really only a little bit, let's just say that the development of the tribal camp is good.
You must know that in the early stage, the tribal camp is developing the fastest.
To put it simply, their camp may have to expand over time, or even expand every day.
At this juncture, you built a fence to surround your camp?
Wouldn’t rounding up hinder the expansion and development of the camp?
This is undoubtedly a stupid thing to do.
With a speechless mood, Zhou Xu stepped forward and checked the strength of the fence with his hands.
The fence itself is made from polished tree branches, which are then tied and secured with rope.
He had nothing to say about using branches. Judging from the current conditions, this was indeed a suitable choice. What he mainly observed was the binding rope.
As mentioned before, if you want to use ropes to fix these branches and tie them firmly, this actually requires some skills and cannot be done casually.
A common problem with poorly tied ties is that they tend to loosen easily.
Once the fence is loose, the gaps between the branches will become larger and be easily squeezed open. The pheasants kept inside may get out and escape. At the same time, some animals outside may also be able to escape. The pheasant that got in and harmed them.
"Wang Chuan, please arrange some people to tear down all these fences and tie them up again."
If he wants to save effort now and use these ready-made fences to surround them directly, it won't take long , he will definitely have to face a situation of large-scale repair and renovation of these fences.
Rather than dismantle it and rebuild it again, he would rather start dismantling it now and save some trouble.
Needless to say, this is where he differs from Wang Luchong.
Wang Chuan was somewhat unable to understand the request of their new leader, but in this era, he obviously would not choose to resist, but would obediently follow the instructions of their new leader and let the matter go. It was arranged.
Afterwards, Zhou Xu undoubtedly also asked about some potential risks of raising chickens in the open air with fences.
The most critical thing is undoubtedly whether other wild animals around will come and steal their chickens.
After all the hard work you have done raising your own chickens, the chickens are stolen and eaten by the surrounding wild animals before you can eat them. This is undoubtedly a disturbing thing.
Faced with this question, Wang Chuan nodded.
“Yes, although after our camp was set up, the animals on the mountain chose to stay away from this area, but from time to time, there will still be some animals that take advantage of the darkness to approach our camp. Because there is food in the camp outside."
Speaking of this, Wang Chuan's tone was a little helpless.
“Outside the camp, the vegetables grown in the fields were often eaten away, even making the entire field a mess. In addition, the chickens in the chicken coop were also eaten by animals on the mountains. I went in and killed him.”
“Later, I had no choice but to send people to guard the chicken coop at night, and at the same time send people to patrol the fields.”
The campground is located in an area frequently visited by wild animals, which is something that can't be helped.
As of now, sending people to patrol and guard is the best way.
