Yu Ying had people at the main gate start digging up the sweet potatoes, and they quickly unearthed nine plants.
Like the first one they dug up, they were enormous, much larger than an adult’s fist. In fact, they were about the size of two adult fists.
“Shaman, they’re all so big! Your Shaman Technique really worked!” Yu Ying said in amazent.
The fox eared girl gazed delightedly at the large sweet potatoes on the ground, already imagining eating them tonight.
“Yes, let’s move them all into the wooden house. These will last us for quite a while.” Su Bai smiled.
Though he felt it was sowhat regrettable that the Growth Acceleration Skill could only be used ten tis per day, if he could use it more tis each day, he could ripen all the remaining sweet potatoe plants.
After ripening this batch, using the yield to plant a second batch, they could accumulate quite a stockpile by the snow season.
However, seeing the number on his Attribute Panel, he guessed that with more uses, the Growth Acceleration Skill would level up. In the next level, he would most likely be able to apply it onto more plants each day.
“Yes.” Yu Ying imdiately picked up the sweet potatoes, treating them as if they were precious treasures.
Su Bai looked at the remaining seven or eight plants. He plans on having them ripen tomorrow and then replanting them.
With more than ten days until the rainy season, if they planted another batch, they could ripen those around the start of the rainy season.
However, Su Bai was not sure about the scope of the Growth Acceleration Skill.
For instance, if he used it on a newly planted seed, how far would it grow? Would it just sprout, grow leaves, flower directly, or even produce fruit?
There were many uncertainties to experint with after ripening tomorrow’s ten sweet potato plants.
Su Bai would begin testing the Growth Acceleration Skill, just as he had tested the Curing Skill before.
After checking the greenhouses’ construction at the main gate, Su Bai turned and went back inside.
With the rainy season approaching, he had much preparation work to do.
The Wheat had already been planted. Now, they just needed to finish building the greenhouse to protect it.
The Tribe had also started building cent houses, which were progressing quickly.
With many people working together, and the division of labor already done, currently, the most challenging part was the wall construction.
The grass ash cent production had not decreased, and stone polishing and transportation continued as per normal. Of course, there were fewer workers in these two roles than in wall construction, which had the most workers.
Since it was everyone’s first ti building walls, and it was the most complex task, they worked slowly, so more people needed to be assigned to this task.
…
Su Bai sat back in his seat and began sorting the herbs. He plans on developing dicines for common illnesses before the rainy season.
When the rains ca, they would be constantly wet, and the humidity would be high. With over a month of continuous rain, Tribe mbers would likely develop minor ailnts. Using a Shaman Bone Tablet for every case would be too wasteful.
For common colds and fevers, drinking herbal dicine should suffice. In this way, they would not need to waste Shaman Bone Tablets or specially visit him.
Yu Ying returned to the wooden house, set down the sweet potatoes, and went to her place to continue sewing Ramie clothes.
With the rainy season coming, the fox eared girl had more clothes to sew since people could not bathe as often and needed to change clothes frequently.
The clothes taken to wash would not dry quickly in the rain.
“This is good for fever, this for stomach issues…” Su Bai muttered, head lowered.
He held three or four herbs, with an herbal encyclopaedia on the table, alternating between examining the herbs and reading.
Primitive era herbs were remarkably diverse, completely different from Earth’s. Even the Dandelions collected from the Hunting Ground were several tis larger than Earth’s.
They looked more like lotus pods than Dandelions, with enormously thick pappus.
He had collected many herbs with strange nas and diverse healing properties. So could supposedly cure people who did not like talking, and even stranger, one could help won conceive more easily.
This really opened Su Bai’s eyes to a whole new world of possibilities. Previously, it had all been about strengthening the body and such. The common wisdom was that a healthy body made conception easier. However, now, here was an herb claiming to directly help won conceive.
However, when he thought about it, it was probably similar to the fertility tonics of ancient Earth.
Su Bai shook his head with a smile, set aside the sorted materials, and continued sorting the remaining herbs.
The sorting was not simple since so herbs had individual effects. But so herbs, when combined in twos or threes, produced different effects…
So he needed to categorize and record these combination dicines separately.
He began thinking about recruiting dical staff to train in healthcare.
Su Bai looked up and asked, “Xiao Yu, are there any careful and clever girls in the Tribe?”
Yu Ying froze, worried the Shaman wanted to recruit more Shaman Priestess, and anxiously asked, “Shaman, did I do sothing wrong?”
Su Bai knew she had misunderstood and smiled, “No, you’re doing very well. I just have other tasks for them.”
“When we were smaller, we might not have them, but now that the Tribe has grown and we’re back at the Ancestral Land, there are more clever people.” Yu Ying sighed in relief.
The fox eared girl was reassured once she knew she had not done anything wrong.
“Good, then please call five or six people over. I have work for them.” Su Bai said.
“Alright.” Yu Ying put down the Ramie and ran out of the wooden house.
The fox eared girl’s expression beca much lighter. As long as the Shaman was not looking for more Shaman Priestess, everything was fine.
Su Bai watched her cheerful departing figure, shook his head with a smile, and murmured, “She’s really cute.”
