Chapter 669 Different From the Previous Wall

As for the location of the furnace in the Tongshan residential area, Han Cheng had already made a choice.

There is a relatively flat piece of land between the copper mountain and the tin mine, and this is where the furnace will be built.

Generally speaking, if the construction of an industrial area requires a large amount of raw materials, it will generally choose to build factories in raw material production areas, and some will choose places with convenient transportation to build factories.

The Qingque tribe will now come here to develop the same residential area, which is oriented by raw materials.

The furnace was built at the foot of the Copper Mountain, which is closer to the Copper Mountain and slightly farther from the tin mine. This is because generally speaking, copper consumption is large when smelting bronze.

With the furnace built here, people only need to dump the copper ore excavated along the hillside, which is very convenient.

While setting up the stove, Hei Wa gave a suggestion. He thought that a small wall should be built outside the Tengshe tribe's cave. After all, the tribe's people would live in this cave for a long time.

The people of the Qingque Tribe have a deep understanding of the fence, so now as soon as they settle outside, they want to make a fence or a protective measure similar to the fence. Without these, they always feel that they are not very safe.

Heiwa's suggestion is actually similar to the steps taken by the Qingque Tribe when they first made a fortune. First build a wall outside the cave to enclose things, and then slowly build houses inside the wall to let people move out to live in the house.

Of course, there was no problem with this method in the past, but it is somewhat inapplicable to apply it to the Tongshan residential area.

The core of the Copper Mountain residential area is the copper mine and the tin mine. This is beyond doubt, so the building must be centered on these two things, or the stove.

The cave of the original Tengshe tribe is about four miles away from the place where Han Cheng chose to set up the stove.

Such a distance is fine for a short period of time, but it is not suitable for a long time.

One is because as long as the copper furnace is ignited, generally speaking, it will start refining 24 hours a day and night, and someone must guard it all the time. It is not convenient to live too far from the place where copper is refined up.

The second is the safety of the furnace and the copper smelters.

The round-the-clock nature of copper smelting is destined to implement a system of two or three shifts, which means that it is impossible for these people to work at the same time.

The distance between the residential area and the copper smelting place is too far,

It will lead to the dispersion of manpower. It's good not to meet the enemy on weekdays, but once the enemy comes and harasses, it will be a little dangerous.

The third reason is that for the safety of the personnel, a wall must be built around the furnace. In this way, it means that two walls need to be built.

This is undoubtedly very labor-intensive and time-consuming.

So Han Cheng's idea is to put the industrial area and the residential area in the same large courtyard, where people live and copper is smelted at the same time.

Industrial areas are built on the downwind, which can reduce the impact of pollution on people to a certain extent.

In fact, compared to later generations, the 'industrial zone' that the Qingque tribe will build is really simple and pitiful, and the scale is pitifully small, and the corresponding pollution it can bring is extremely limited.

Even if it is a close-range life, it will not cause too much harm.

After Han Cheng told his thoughts, he thought for a while with the muddy Heiwa, and nodded in admiration. The Son of God is the Son of God. He only thought that there would be nothing wrong with following the original plan. Now it seems that the matter is not what he thought. like...

After choosing the address and deciding what to build first, on the third day after arriving in Tongshan, the people of the Qingque tribe began to get busy under Han Cheng's arrangement.

Hei Wa and two other people were working on the stove, and the rest of them built the fence according to the line drawn by Han Cheng.

The people who came to the Tongshan residential area this time included ten people headed by Han Cheng in addition to twenty citizens headed by Junior Brother Sha and fifteen slaves.

Han Cheng came to preside over the overall situation, Hei Wa came to take care of the Kang, and the rest were to protect Han Cheng's personal safety.

It is very necessary for these eight people to protect Han Cheng's personal safety, because after getting on the right track here, Han Cheng and Hei Wa will return to the tribe in advance.

When returning to the tribe, it would definitely not be possible for the two of them to walk together. Even if Han Cheng had such a big heart, the rest of the tribe would not agree.

In addition to protecting Han Cheng's safety on the way back, the eight people who came out can also devote themselves to the early development of the Tongshan residential area at this time.

Calculated in this way, and with the presence of Han Cheng, who was not able to earn enough money, the number of people who could participate in the construction of the wall reached forty-two people.

Forty-two men were all strong adults, and the wall was built quickly.

Of course, the progress of the fence here in the Tongshan residential area is fast. In addition to the large number of people involved in the construction, the scale is far less than the large fence being built by the Qingque tribe. Another reason is that the materials used are different.

At the foot of the Copper Mountain, there are stones all over, and none of them are particularly big.

With ready-made building materials, Han Cheng certainly wouldn't ask people to dig and ram earth to make walls.

If there are enough stone materials, building a wall with stones is much faster than rammed earth, at least twice as fast.

Because the stone only needs to go to that base, unlike the earth wall, which needs to be rammed down and down after digging, for fear that it will not be strong.

It takes a long time to ram the earth to achieve the same volume when a stone is built on it.

And I think that for rammed earth, stone is stronger and can withstand wind and rain.

Many civilizations in foreign countries in later generations are made of stone, and because they are solid and hard to shake, many of them have been preserved.

On the other hand, Han Cheng's motherland has a long history, and many beautiful and fascinating buildings have emerged, but because most of them are carved beams and painted buildings, many of them are blown away by the rain and wind.

The Efang Palace, which was covered for more than three hundred miles, was torched by a Chu man. It was a pitiful end for the scorched earth. The Yuanmingyuan, which was like a pearl, met two robbers...

Another advantage of the wall made of stone is that no one dares to dig a hole in the wall, just like the cattle thieves of later generations would never choose a house built of stone.

Because in that case, it is very likely that you will smash yourself to death.

Time passed by every minute and every second, the sun was slanting to the west, and the setting sun sprinkled orange-red brilliance, and the evening wind blew by, bringing coolness to the people who were moving stones and trying to build another home.

"Work harder!"

Wearing leather gloves, he laid a stone weighing more than 100 jin on the wall, supported it with small stones, and looked at the crowd and said loudly.

It is the most comfortable time to work in the morning and at this moment of the day, of course, it is better to work more while it is cool...
