Chapter 347 Unifying Weights and Measures
The scorching sun set on the other side of the mountain, and the sky turned red, and the birds who were happy for some reason were chirping.
The heat dissipated, and the coolness surged.
The leader of the Green Tribe walked with some pottery on his back, looking a little dull.
Not only him, but also the other people who followed him along the way.
When they didn't come, they imagined more than once that they walked back with the pottery exchanged for the ears of weeds on their backs.
It must be laughter and joy along the way.
However, now, they have successfully traded weed ears for pottery, but there is no laughter as imagined.
What caused such a big shift was what was seen in that tribe.
Thinking of the scene he saw, the leader of the Green Tribe felt his heart was blocked, and at the same time his mind was dizzy, as if he was dreaming.
It's not that he can't bear it, but that the scene is too unbelievable!
Weed seeds!
Weed seeds are everywhere!
I don't know how many more weed seeds were brought over by myself and others!
No wonder they laugh when they hear what they say.
After seeing this scene, the leader of the Green Tribe was also smiling, but it was a wry smile, and at the same time his face was still a little hot.
God knows where the tribe got so many weed seeds!
Is this tribe really blessed by the gods?
They always seem to have an endless supply of amazing things, and every visit is refreshing.
And they seem to be able to get what they want, and the amount is so large that one can look up...
After thinking about it for a while, seeing the twilight gradually descending, the leader of the Green Tribe stopped first and decided to rest in this open place.
Someone took out a tool for drilling wood to make fire, and it took a lot of effort to get the fire out.
With this fire they grill their food,
And keep warm.
The leader of the Green Tribe filled a pottery bowl with a bowl of water and drank it, and his mood calmed down a bit.
This bowl was exchanged from that tribe today, along with a large jar and other bowls.
What he got in exchange was similar to what he had expected before, and even an extra bowl came out.
For this result, he also felt unbelievable at the beginning.
It's like he suddenly has a lot of weed seeds for that tribe.
After recovering from the shock of seeing so many weed seeds drying on the ground, all the leader of the Green Tribe thought was that he was going to return empty-handed this time.
After all, this tribe already had so many weed seeds, how could they trade precious pottery with themselves?
Even if they can trade, the pottery that can be exchanged will be greatly reduced.
He has a deep understanding of the treachery of that tribal leader.
When the leader of the green tribe said that he wanted to exchange these weed ears for pottery, the leader of that tribe, as he thought, only took out a few bowls, not even a larger pottery.
The leader of the green tribe felt that it was reasonable, but also angry and lost.
In order to collect these spikes of weeds, the people of the tribe worked hard, and even gave up the opportunity to go hunting for two days.
Before coming here, everyone including him was excited and looking forward to the grand occasion of each having a pottery bowl, but now...
The leader of the Green Tribe took another sip of water, looked at the pottery bowls and large vats in front of him, and let out a sigh of relief.
A figure appeared in his mind, and this figure was the person from that tribe who was called the Son of God.
The leader of that tribe has clearly expressed his intention to go back with these weed ears on his back if he does not want to change.
People under the eaves had to bow their heads.
In such a situation, even if the leader of the Green Tribe was reluctant, he had to hold his nose and admit it.
Because if they don't agree, they can't take a pottery bowl back.
I can only go back to the tribe with the spikes of unpalatable weeds on my back.
At this time, the god son of that tribe appeared, he stopped the action of the tribe leader, and gave him the pottery that he expected to be able to exchange...
In the past, he still thought that this guy called the Son of God was stupid, but now he has no such idea at all.
For the minor called the Son of God, he admired him from the bottom of his heart.
Not only him, but other green tribesmen who saw this also admired the god son of that tribe.
If you think about it carefully, if you switch positions between the two parties, under the same circumstances, they will definitely not be able to do what the other party can do...
Of course, this was a scene that Han Cheng colluded with the elder brother to act in advance.
Since it is a drama, there needs to be a villain and a decent character. Without a villain, how can it set off a decent image?
How can the Green Tribe feel that they have received the great kindness of the Qingque Tribe this time?
Recalling the various performances of the leaders of the Green Tribe, the three giants of the Qingque Tribe got together and showed a smile of success.
Among them, Shu Han Cheng, the primary planner, laughed the most treacherously and obscenely.
The current foreign policy of the Qingque Tribe is basically a combination of grace and power.
The biggest purpose of doing this is to make the integration of these tribes more smooth in the future...
The millet for the second time was also finished, and the second round got a total of 198 catties of millet.
Don't wonder why Han Cheng knows such accuracy, because he has already got the scale out.
A smooth stick, a hook for hooking things, and a rope and weight for carrying.
The structure of the scale is very simple. Modern people who have seen the scale can make such a thing with a little effort.
What makes a scale difficult is not these structures, but how to draw an accurate front sight on the pole.
In order to find the front sight of the scale, Han Cheng spent a lot of effort.
After thinking about it, I decided to adopt a method similar to that used to make the ruler.
First find a relatively neat stone, and hold it in your hand to estimate that it is about the same as a catty in later generations, and use it as a standard for a catty.
Then tie the stone with a rope and hang it on the scale hook, and lift the rope on the scale with one hand to get the stone off the ground.
The other hand pulls the rope that hangs on the scale beam and the scale hammer.
After turning the scale hammer to the position where the beams of the scale become parallel, use an iron knife to carve a mark here, which is the position of a catty.
Then use this standard of one catty to weigh out many small bags containing one catty of sand and soil.
Hang it on the hook of the scale together with the first stone used as the standard, and you can get the scale of two catties, three catties, four catties...
The stone used as the benchmark was put together with the 'standard' ten-centimeter wooden stick after the scale was completed, and Han Cheng solemnly preserved it.
As long as you can ensure that these two things that serve as standards are not lost, then the length and weight you make will not be messed up.
It is very necessary to formulate a standard for things that can be touched every day, such as weight and length. ()
