For Mufeng, he was ecstatic to find yellow potatoes.

If the discovery of wheat and corn laid the foundation for Jiang's agricultural development, then the discovery of yellow potatoes undoubtedly accelerated Jiang's development.

Because the yield of wheat and corn per mu is no more than a few hundred to a thousand catties, a large area must be planted to support a large population.

But yellow potatoes are different. Like sweet potatoes, yellow potatoes can be planted in spring and summer in a year. The lower yield is about four thousand catties per mu, and the higher ones can even reach six to seven thousand catties.

This kind of production can definitely support more people without counting combat effectiveness!

Especially now that the Jiang family is building the city wall. Once it is completed, a large area of ​​protected planting land will be obtained. These lands are really spread out to grow sweet potatoes. Even if you don't go hunting, you don't have to worry about famine!

And looking at the size of these yellow potatoes, they are not small.

Once the vines are cut and planted back to the tribe, and the cultivation is intensive, three or four months later, when the autumn harvest comes, more and bigger potatoes can be harvested!

Especially in this large open area right now, there are so many yellow potato seedlings growing, no matter what, there is an area of ​​10 to 20 acres. Even if the yield is low, tens of thousands of catties of yellow potatoes can be harvested.

In this way, not to mention supporting the people in the current clan, even if there are so many people coming again, it will not be a problem!

But he looked around and hesitated again.

That is, the group of wild boars are growing well in this area right now, and if they really want to get back the tribe, they must provide corresponding food.

"It's possible to get these wild boars back to the tribe, and then let people come here to dig potatoes." Mu Feng was a little conflicted, "But that would consume manpower and put the tribe at risk."

After all, what happened last night has just passed.

He hesitated.

At this time, Mingguang reminded Mufeng: "Great chief, those wild boars have gone back!"

Mu Feng shook his head: "Don't worry about them, anyway, we already know where they are now!"

"Then what are we doing now?" Mingguang asked.

"Now dig some of these yellow potatoes first, the most important thing is to get some more of these vines back!"

"Do you want to connect to the root?"

"No, just get the vine back, dip it in water and keep it dry!"

"Then what are these underground things? I just ate them and they tasted so good!"

"Yeah. This is called a yellow potato. It's edible. It can be eaten raw, roasted, or boiled. Keep it well. In the future, this thing will be the most important food for my Jiang family to feed more people!"

Ming Guang couldn't help being startled, his expression excited: "Feed more people!"

"Yeah!" Mu Feng nodded, "We can grow these yellow potatoes when we go back."

"What about those wild boars?" Ming Guang asked again.

Mu Feng frowned, and signaled Ming Guang to dig the potatoes first, and then think about it himself.

So Ming Guang beckoned the thirty people to come forward and started digging sweet potatoes and picking up seedlings.

To Mufeng's surprise, the Armored Dilong was very interested in the dug up sweet potatoes, and went to smell it, and after taking two bites, it was as delicious as it was, and gnawed on a small pile of sweet potatoes dug out up.

As for Huleibao, it seemed that it was because he ate too much poisonous snake last night, but he just sniffed it and vomited after taking two bites.

I don't know if it's because I hate the bad taste, or there is mud on it.

Mingguang and the others were also exposed to yellow potatoes for the first time, and they didn't feel a pity that the armored dragon ate them, anyway, there are so many of them!

Mu Feng is now in a dilemma.

On the one hand, he felt that it would not be a big problem to get these wild boars back, after all, Bajie was there.
But raising so many wild boars must be a problem when we go back - people from the Jiang clan need to come here frequently to bring the sweet potatoes back, and there may be unknown dangers along the way.

And it's impossible for him to bring beasts like Armored Earth Dragon and Hulei Leopard every time.

After thinking about it, he decided not to take this group of wild boars back for the time being. Anyway, there is such a large group of wild boars. In this deep mountain and old forest, no tribe can have monkeys like him to explore the way.

No one can get here safe and sound like myself.

Another point is that he has eight precepts. As long as this guy is here, taking down this group of wild boars is a matter of minutes.

The most important thing is that there is such a large group of wild boars, there are no natural enemies in this forest that can threaten their safety, otherwise they would not have grown to such a large group.

They can eat and drink here, and they can help Mufeng look at such a large piece of yellow potatoes.

After making up his mind, Mu Feng said directly to Ming Guang: "Hurry up and dig up the yellow potatoes and get the seedlings ready, let's go back to the tribe!"

"Where's the wild boar king?" Ming Guang reminded.

"Of course I take it back!" Mu Feng replied.

In fact, he was a little worried about putting Bajie here, after all, he had just been tamed not long ago. He was afraid that after putting it here for a while, it would become wild again, and it would be difficult to catch it again!

Especially the absurd scene at the wild boar gathering place just now made Mu Feng gnash his teeth with hatred even thinking about it now.

Mu Feng and the others quickly collected yellow potato seedlings, yellow potatoes, and thirty mounts. Although there were not many, there were at least one or two thousand catties of yellow potatoes and one thousand catties of yellow potato seedlings.

After experiencing the marriage of the members of the Xin Jiang clan, Ming Guang now unswervingly implements Mu Feng's order, and dare not discount or doubt it.

After packing up, they made a detour to the vicinity of the wild boar herd.

Mufeng whistled at the herd of wild boars through the trees - of course it was different from Huleibao.

After blowing the whistle, Mufeng hid in the trees and looked at Bajie among the wild boars.

He has already made up his mind, if Bajie dares not come out and follow him, he will try his best to catch these wild boars later, and after he catches Bajie
