I Am a Primitive Man

Chapter 1181 Three-Masted Sailboat (2 in 1)

The main tribe of Qingque harvested millet here, as long as it didn't rain, as long as they started to use the sickle, they basically wouldn't stop.

When sowing, the millet in the tribe is planted in batches.

When harvesting, it is naturally harvested in batches.

It's just that when the millet is supposed to be ripe, it ripens faster. Although the millet planted late ripens later, the time gap is actually smaller than the time gap between two batches of millet when it was planted at that time. .

It is also because of this that the people in the tribe can't stop when harvesting.

The first batch of millet had just been harvested, and the second batch was ready to be harvested.

Moreover, the millet in the tribe, in addition to flat places, is also planted on some slopes with relatively gentle ups and downs and not very steep slopes.

Because there is no water and moisture on the slopes, the millet planted on the slopes generally matures earlier than the millet grown on the flat land.

Planting on sloping land is the result of Han Cheng's insistence.

Of course, this is not because Han Cheng owes much land, or because there is not enough flat land around the main Qingque tribe.

It is mainly because of the characteristic that the slope does not store water.

When the weather is good and the weather is good, the grain production on the slopes is naturally not as good as that on the flat land.

However, in years with a lot of rain, slopes with good drainage can often produce more than lowlands and flat lands with poor drainage.

This is the reason why Han Cheng insisted that the people in the upper tribe planted slopes, flats, and some depressions when they planted.

It's impossible to have good weather all the time.

Droughts and floods are commonplace.

With the existence of these slopes and depressions, no matter what kind of bad weather occurs, the tribe will not fail to harvest.

This can be regarded as a means of avoiding risks and spreading risks.

It is also the most important reason why plain areas are more severely affected than hilly areas under the same climatic conditions.

On the threshing ground of the Qingque tribe, piles of straw have already been piled up.

These straw stacks are either round or elongated.

A circular haystack can be stacked more than three meters high, and the maximum diameter near the center can exceed seven meters!

There is a top on the top, and the top is buckled with a wooden fork such as millet chaff.

These things are waterproof very well.

Especially those old straw stacks that have been stored for a year and have become very porcelain. Even if it rains continuously for a month, only the top layer is wet.

The rest of the place is dry.

As for the long-shaped dock stacks, the principle is actually similar to that of round haystacks.

They are all smaller and narrower at the bottom, and wider and wider at the top.

After reaching a certain height, it will begin to shrink toward the middle, forming an upward convex top.

Due to the shape of the elongated pile, the roof actually looks similar to the tile-roofed houses in the tribe.

However, lacking the angularity of tile-roofed houses, there is a lot more roundness.

There is a reason for the shape of the haystack, which is small at the bottom and gets bigger as it goes up.

On the one hand, it is because such a shape can accumulate more straw within a limited footprint.

On the other hand, this shape can effectively shield the rainwater, so that the water flowing down from the top of the haystack will drip around the haystack instead of flowing down the haystack all the time, and the lower part of the haystack will also be wet. wet, let it get damp.

Stacking straw stacks is a technical job.

Generally, after the straw stacks have been piled up to a certain height, someone needs to hold a wooden branch to go up and carry out "stacking".

That is, use your own body weight to trample the originally loose straw to make it firmer, and at the same time use a wooden fork to distribute the straw shoveled up by the others more evenly.

Things like stacking straw stacks are usually done by multiple people.

Several people need to use wooden forks to shovel straw on the haystack, and one person stands on it to stack.

In fact, it's almost like loading a car.

Among them, the palletizer needs someone with skills and vision.

Only in this way will the stacked haystacks look beautiful in the end, and will not be crooked, and will not cause water leakage due to the failure to fix the top of the haystacks.

These haystacks are precious things.

Of course, this is on the premise that there are a lot of livestock in the tribe.

If it wasn't for the tribe's cattle, sheep, donkeys and deer as fodder, then the people in the tribe would not pay so much attention to these straws.

The busy harvesting has been going on, and everyone has devoted themselves to this busy and enthusiastic harvesting.

Among the large number of people who followed Han Cheng back from the south, many were members of the Red Tiger Tribe, a few were members of the Nest Tribe, and some were made with the help of the Red Tiger Tribe. Taking the opportunity to gather up the hands.

These people didn't have much contact with these things before, even though they have been in the Qingque main tribe for a certain period of time, looking at the Qingque tribe's large-scale scene of harvesting crops at this time, each of them still couldn't bear it. Live full of surprise.

Before coming to the Qingquezhu tribe, some of these people were still a little proud in their hearts.

These people are all people with some abilities.

For example, some people can feed cattle, some people are good at harvesting food, or they are better at hunting.

But when they came to the main tribe, they were dazzled by the variety of tools and various tasks they had never seen before.

They were amazed at the ingenuity of the things made with such tools and movements.

After seeing this, they were hit hard.

The pride in my heart also disappeared.

It turned out that what they were proud of and what they were proud of before was nothing in the Qingque tribe.

After being hit hard, these people were also attracted and impressed by the broad and profound Qingque tribe, and began to devote themselves to the construction of the Qingque tribe.

Use your heart to learn all kinds of things that you have never been exposed to before, learn technologies that you have never been exposed to, and work hard for the construction of the Qingque tribe.

The more they study, the more they feel that the Qingque tribe is rich and profound, far surpassing the tribes they have lived in before.

And gradually feel proud of being able to become a Qingque person...

Sweat continued to flow down, but everyone's faces were full of smiles.

With such busyness, they would rather become more.

In this way, the tribe can get more food!

People in the tribe have an extreme obsession with food.

No matter how many, they are not too many.

This is the same reason that people in later generations do not dislike having more money in their hands.

However, not all people are so busy. Except for some people who feed or graze livestock, there are some special people who are not involved in this matter.

These people are some carpenters headed by lame.

These people need to repair the damaged farm tools during this period of time.

At the same time, Lai and the others are busy with more important things.

This thing is researching and making sailboats.

With the development to the present, the manpower in the tribe is relatively sufficient.

At least after Han Cheng brought back a large number of people from Jinguan City in the south, some people could be allocated to do other things when harvesting the crops.

After all, in the past, there were certain people who carried out the planting. Those who came back with Han Cheng did not participate in the planting.

Now they are participating in the harvest.

Between this advance and retreat, the manpower was saved.

"Hahaha……"

There was a lot of laughter in the carpenter's room with dense shade.

Lame, an old carpenter who has become very mature, smiled so hard that his teeth could not see his eyes.

It's just that his smile is a silent laugh.

The smile on his face was particularly obvious, but no laughter came out.

On the contrary, the rest of the people around laughed and said they were very happy.

The eyes of the crowd, who were full of joy, were all converging at this moment.

What drew the eyes of the crowd together was nothing but a ship.

Ships are not a rare thing in today's Qingque tribe, but ships with masts and sails are rare.

It can even be said that there is no such thing at all.

But now that record has been broken.

In front of Lai and the others, there was a ship with a mast.

The boat was not that big, about the same size as those existing in the tribe.

But the style is completely different.

The existing boats in the tribe have basically rectangular bottoms.

But the current boat has a rectangular bottom in the middle and a triangle at both ends.

This kind of triangle is not very sharp, but the lines are relatively smooth.

The area of ​​the bottom of the ship is not as large as the area above. Compared with the area of ​​the bottom and the upper part, the bottom of the ship occupies about one-fifth of the height of the entire hull, which is relatively small.

If it is shown on the line, the position is sunken toward the middle.

Aside from these, there are many aspects of this ship that make it different.

For example, most of its cabins are covered with wooden boards, which are very flat.

There are square holes left in some places, and a wooden ladder can be seen standing there with some heads exposed.

Of course, what is more conspicuous is the mast erected on the ship here and the sails tied to the mast.

There are three masts, the middle mast is the tallest and strongest, and the front and rear masts are basically the same in thickness and length.

On the three masts, there are ropes tied at this time.

The ropes are connected to the mast and some specially reserved places on the hull.

There are also sails tied to the mast.

The sails are made of raincloth and are white.

Even the people in the tribe, under the leadership of a relatively wretched son of God, are more proficient in the art of binding, but it took a lot of thought to tie the ropes and sails.

After all, the objects they are most proficient at binding are people, not sails, which they haven't touched much before.

Looking at the small sailboat in front of them, Lai and the others felt particularly comfortable.

Only they themselves know how much effort and effort they have put in to get this thing out during this period of time!

Only they themselves know how much hardship they have done during this period of time.

Now, this small sailboat finally appeared in front of me and others, seeing the results in front of me, and recalling what I and others have paid for it in the recent period of time, it is easy to have a deep feeling in my heart at this time. Intense joy and excitement.

Although they haven't entered the water to verify the performance of this thing, although they know that there are still many things that need to be adjusted and changed in the future, but looking at the sailboat that appeared in front of themselves and others in its entirety, lame Waiting for others just can't restrain the joy in their hearts.

"Put another layer of tung oil on it."

After doing this for a while, Limp spoke to the people beside him.

Originally, he couldn't hold back the joy in his heart, and wanted to send people to look for the Son of God immediately, and tell the Son of God the good news.

But thinking that it was the time when the tribe was busy farming, and Shenzi was busy in the fields with the others, he forced himself to suppress the impulse in his heart.

After some thought, he finally issued such an order.

Afterwards, he also began to carefully inspect the small sailboat, trying to make it perfect without leaving any flaws, and to show it in the best condition before it was launched in front of the Son of God.

Avoid as many unfavorable states as possible after the boat is launched.

The sunlight moves inch by inch, and finally disappears completely.

The large cloud was dyed red, and everything on the earth seemed to be dyed with some brilliant colors.

In the wilderness around the main tribe of Qingque, everyone was still busy. After a tiring day, their movements not only did not slow down at this time, but on the contrary, they sped up a lot.

It's as if the non-stop work this day didn't make them feel tired, but instead made them more energetic.

Herds of sheep and deer came back from afar, all the way across the harvested fields, walking towards the main tribe.

Playful guys, this is the time to realize that the sky is getting dark, and there will be no more opportunities if you don’t eat, so at this time, you are gnawing on the grass, and you are more greedy than any other time of the day.

The herders seem to have already gotten used to this characteristic of these animals, and they didn't rush, but just followed behind slowly towards the tribe, letting the animals eat while walking.

Anyway, the main tribe is there, and someone has already started cooking at this time.

No matter how late I wait for someone to go back, there will always be ready-made food waiting for me and others, the kind that can support myself and others.

Time passed little by little, those gorgeous clouds completely dissipated, when the twilight fell, the distance became a little hazy, and the weather became cooler, the people in the tribe were completely finished.

At this time, on the way home, I can already feel the dew on the grass.

During dinner, Han Cheng, carrying a big old bowl, came to the carpenter's room...
