As Han Cheng expected, those who heard Shi Tou say this were stunned when they heard it.
Because what Shi Tou said was too shocking.
Last night, they all listened to what the Son of God said. At that time, they were all amazed at the bigness of the earth, the vastness of the sea, and the wonders of various things.
But compared to this moment today, the amazement of last night suddenly didn't seem so amazing, because this guy Stone said a more surprising and bold idea.
Build enough big ships to cross the vast ocean with almost no edge, and then bring back the good things from the rest of the large land to the tribe...
Such a thing is so amazing that it is hard to imagine.
However, after the initial amazement, everyone thought carefully about what Shi Tou said and found it very exciting.
If we can really accomplish this and gather many kinds of delicious food in our own tribe, just thinking about the scene will make us feel comfortable.
Thinking carefully about the path of his tribe's development and growth, wasn't it the Son of God who led everyone along the way in finding a variety of food?
In the beginning, we used fish cages to catch fish. Later, after we had rapeseed and millet, we started farming and raised pigs and rabbits.
Just yesterday, I found two more delicious ones that can be grown on a large scale.
It is foreseeable that with these two new delicacies, the tribe will become better in the future.
From this perspective, what Shitou said makes sense!
So, people who figured this out became excited.
Be happy and amazed at such a great wish.
Now that his tribe only has these foods, it has developed so well. If this great wish can really be realized, how powerful his tribe will become!
Just thinking about these things made everyone feel very excited.
Han Cheng looked at the people whose faces were full of anticipation and excitement, and he couldn't help but smile.
Many times, people just need to dare to think. Whether it's daydreaming or wild ideas, it's always good to dare to think.
There are so many things that we dare not even think about, how can we achieve them?
For example, the clairvoyance and super hearing imagined by people in ancient times, weren’t they all realized later?
Even if you sow a seed in your tribe now that seems out of reach and even like a joke, it does not mean that it will never come true.
There is a long way to go, but who can predict what will happen in the future?
After eating a very wild breakfast, Han Cheng and those who still hadn't recovered from the excitement started to get busy, preparing to build the second branch of their tribe here.
According to Han Cheng's idea, it would be best to build a wall here first, just like the previous tribe, to ensure safety, and then start building houses.
But this is just an idea, because building a wall is too time-consuming.
I remember when the inner wall of the Qingque main tribe was built, the total number of adults, men and women in the tribe was only about thirty or so, about the same number as myself and others now.
And at that time, I had already built the fish cage, and the food problem was basically solved by minors, so the adults could build the wall with peace of mind.
Even so, for a wall of that size, the people in the tribe had to build it from spring to winter before it could be barely used.
In the second year, it took almost half a year to raise its height until it reached its current size.
Now, I and others are here and need to solve the problem of food by myself.
Even though the tools are vastly different from what they were back then, and everyone is more skilled in these things, if they want to build a wall of the same specifications as the inner wall of the main tribe, it will probably take until winter to complete.
After the discovery of rice and sweet millet, even if the climate stopped getting colder, this place would definitely be developed and utilized.
That is to say, the population size here will not be too small by then.
Accordingly, the wall cannot be built too small, it must at least be larger than the inner wall of the main tribe.
It was only after such calculations that Han Cheng decided to put aside the matter of building the wall first.
Moreover, judging by the tribe's current equipment and everyone's fighting strength, the need for a wall is not as urgent as it was before.
If an ordinary tribe came over, they would be able to pin it to the ground and rub it hard, just like the tribe whose leader was a one-eyed person they met on the way here.
If we don’t build a wall, we will have to build a house.
As for the house, Han Cheng naturally wanted to get it done in one go to save trouble in the future.
According to the current house construction specifications of the Qingque tribe, the roofs are basically covered with tiles.
There are no tiles here, so we can only repair the kiln and burn them now, which also requires a lot of effort and manpower.
At the same time, we also need to make ropes and fences.
After calculating back and forth like this, Han Cheng couldn't help but sniff. He had more than 30 people, but it was still a little too few! He felt that it was not enough for anything he did...
Han Cheng assigned tasks to these people. Twenty people took axes, saws and other tools to a place not too far away to cut down trees.
Before felling trees, they would have people armed with weapons, bring dogs, beat gongs, form pairs, and patrol the not-too-dense woodland back and forth to make sure there were no ferocious wild animals hiding there that could harm people during the subsequent felling.
In the process, we also harvested some food.
The rest of the people were busy with things in the temporary camp.
Some people who are more dexterous use tools such as axes to make some wooden tools that will be needed next, while others use sickles to clear the weeds on the land.
As for Han Cheng, he was accompanied by two men holding weapons as he wandered around the land and planned it.
Now, it is not the first time that Han Cheng has led people to do such a project. Although he is a complete self-taught, after experiencing the inner courtyard of the Qingque main tribe, the expansion of the main tribe, and the construction of the Tongshan residential area, he has gained a lot of experience on how to build a large courtyard that can accommodate hundreds or even thousands of people as well as possible.
It won't seem unfamiliar when you do it.
When creating such a new tribe, early planning is essential, which can make the layout of the entire tribe more reasonable, the functional areas clearer, and make both production and life comfortable.
Moreover, a good plan can minimize the waste of manpower and material resources, so that things that were built with great effort not long ago will not be demolished because they are inappropriate.
After looking at the entire area carefully, Han Cheng took out paper and charcoal pencils and began to sketch the terrain on the paper.
The main thing is to draw a rough floor plan and then take into account everything that can be considered.
The design on the drawing is unreasonable, so it is really difficult to build it reasonably.
This is a meticulous job that requires a lot of patience. Even though the planning map drawn by Han Cheng was already a very simple one, and there were also references to the Qingque main tribe, Tongshan residential area, and some large courtyards seen in later generations, these things still took him a lot of time.
There is no way, there are just too many things to consider.
It was not until noon the next day that Han Cheng finally completed the task.
At this time, the piece of paper in his hand had changed a lot. The most common things drawn on it were rectangles of different lengths and widths.
There are names written on these rectangles.
For example, the row of rectangles that look basically the same near the north side has the word "housing" written on them.
On the smaller rectangle near the south gate, the words "slave housing" are written, and there are also some words like "kitchen", "pigsty", "duck house", etc.
While Han Cheng was planning these, the people in the tribe also cut down a lot of trees. Some of the cut down trees were carried back, and the others, at Han Cheng's suggestion, were thrown into the shallow water nearby.
These trees soaked in water lay the foundation for further construction.
Because these woods that have been soaked in water for a period of time will not crack easily after being taken out and dried in the shade, and any insects that may be inside can also be killed by soaking, they are very suitable for making beams and columns.
Of course, when choosing a puddle for soaking wood, you basically choose one that is not very deep and is not connected to the river over there.
Otherwise, after a heavy rain, these pieces of wood soaked in water will most likely drift away with the current and disappear.
"Clear all the weeds in this area and build the house here first."
拿着手里的规划图,用携带着的皮绳所做成的卷尺,对着这一片的土地进行了丈量之后,韩成指着一处地方对众人说道。
在安排众人做这些之前,他已经让人们沿着他与石头几个人丈量出来的围墙应该在的位置,挖出来了一道浅浅的沟。
这样做一方面是省的今后进行修建围墙时还有重新找位置,另外一方面就是,将围墙的位置找出来之后,好方便对其余建筑布局。
此时韩成对众人指点的这片地方,是比较靠近围墙大门所在的地方,在他的规划里,这里是奴隶小院所在的地方。
而奴隶小院,就是韩成这次决定率先修建的建筑。
这是他经过了一番深思熟虑之后,做出来的决定。
部落里奴隶小院的规格,是所有居住房屋里面最低的。
不仅仅房屋不大,不高,而且房屋上面铺设的还不是瓦,而是茅草这些东西。
工程量小,而且各方面的要求还不高,很是适合韩成他们这个时候修建。
修建出来一些这样的房屋之后,等到下次前来的时候,众人就有地方居住了。
到时间人们可以居住在这些房屋里面,去修建其它建筑,也算是有了一个正经的遮风挡雨的地方。
而韩成他们这一趟,也算是在这里留下了一些什么。
在韩成说出了这样的指令之后,众人立刻就开始行动起来,这里的杂草很快就被人们彻底的清除了。
而韩成,则跟石头几个人扯起皮绳制作的卷尺,在这一片土地上进行丈量,很快就确定了房屋的位置。
有人按照他们丈量出来的位置,在那里钉下来木橛子,木橛子上面绑上线绳,两点确定一条直线,很快就将需要开挖地基的地方给确定了下来。
而后众人就操着工具,开始沿着线绳确定下来的位置,开挖地基。
青雀第二分部落就此开始动工,而这个刚刚开始动工的分部落,韩成也已经起好了名字,名字很响亮,叫做锦官城。
提起锦官城,就很容易让人想起名动天下的蜀锦,以及五代十国时那个短命的王朝后蜀。
因为花蕊夫人喜欢木芙蓉,所以后蜀后主孟昶就让人在锦官城中遍植木芙蓉,等到花开时节,整个锦官城都是灿若云霞,繁花似锦,真的如同它的名字一般。
当然,木芙蓉这种东西,韩成是不会让人在部落这里栽种的,毕竟他没有一个喜欢木芙蓉的媳妇。
按照小童养媳白雪妹喜欢喂蚕缫丝来看,到时间这里被栽种上诸多桑树还差不多。
不过那到时倒也能够对得起锦官城这个名字了。
修建房屋这些,部落里的人早已经不陌生了,毕竟这些年来,青雀部落从无到有的修建出了不少房屋。
此时又有金属工具在,做起这些事情的时候,速度倒是不慢。
地基挖的不深,半米不到。
地基挖好之后,韩成没有让人如同之前在部落里修建房屋那样,找来石头进行垒砌,垒砌出地面半米或者是更高一些之后,才在上面夯土做墙。
而是直接让人截下诸多将近一米、婴儿手臂粗细的木棍,用火烧了,碳化之后,一头磨尖,将之沿着地基钉了下去。
之所以会这样做,是因为这一片土地附近零散的石头少,若是再进行石头的开采,并对其进行搬运的话,太过于耗费功夫。
而且这只是修建比较低矮的奴隶小院,也不用花费这样大的力气。
沿着开挖好的地基,定下一排碳化之后的木桩子,然后再进行夯土就成了。
夯土用的这些工具,在有金属工具的情况下,很容易就能够将之制作出来在。
钩担这些,也不在话下。
从破土动工的那一刻起,众人就开始不断忙碌起来。
随着众人的忙碌,这里也在开始发生着变化,一些应该还从来没有在这一片土地上出现过的东西,随着众人的忙碌开始出现。
“铮~”
一声弓弦声响,一支羽箭激射而出,一只还没有反应过来怎么回事的大鸟,立刻就在原地疯狂的扑腾起来,不等它扑腾完,就有狗子呜呜叫着蹿了过去,将其叼住拉了回来,跑到沙师弟身边,邀功一样的摇着尾巴。
沙师弟笑着将这只猎物从狗子的嘴巴处拿下,将之放到了背篓之中,并在狗子的头上轻轻的摸了摸。
然后和同行的另外几人,继续朝着前面走去,接着寻找猎物。
这里距离主部落很远,没有主部落积存下来的食物,众人只能是依靠打猎以及采集野菜来维持生活。
以沙师弟为首的几个擅长使用弓箭的人,被韩成安排了打猎的任务,负责给部落的众人获取食物。
除了沙师弟他们几个之外,跟随而来的那几个女人,主要的任务也是获取食物,比如采集一些熟悉的野菜,收放鱼笼。
鱼笼这种最为省力的获取食物的法子,众人当然不会放过,在原来鱼笼的基础之上,又编织出来了不少,合计得有四五十个,统统都下到了水里。
经过这么多年之后,青雀部落之内会编织鱼笼的人不再少数,虽然基本上都没有跛编织出来的鱼笼好,但是用来捕鱼还是没有问题的。
也幸亏有这么多的鱼笼在,不然的话,仅仅是众人的吃饭事情,都将会成为一个大问题。
而沙师弟等人,在获得的食物比较充沛之后,也会放下猎弓,加入到修建房屋的劳作之中。
在将房屋往上面修建了一半多的时候,韩成就不在让沙师弟他们参与围墙的修建了。
而是让他们在食物比较充足,不需要打猎的时候,拿着镰刀,去水边收割那些类似菖蒲的东西。
他以及部落里的人没有在这附近发现茅草这些,因此上也就只能就地取材了。
好在这类植被长得都比较深,收割之后,用来铺设屋顶,还是能够抗上一些时间的。
当然,沙师弟他们收割的基本上都是去年老掉的那些,今年新长出来的这些,还太浅,而且太嫩了。
夜色降下,篝火点燃,接替放假休息的太阳进行照明。
吃过晚饭,休息了一会儿的临时营地处,忙碌了一天的青雀部落众人又开始了新一轮的忙碌。
“哧棱~哧棱~”
有显得比较奇怪的声音在临时营地这里响起。
二师兄等人围坐在篝火旁,不停的动作着。
他们这是在揭一种树木的树皮,这种树木叫做构树。
它的皮很有韧性,适合用来做绳子。
每扯下一些树皮,就会有这样的声音响起。
绳子这种东西,在青雀主部落以及铜山居住区都是不缺少的,因为这两个部落除了种植有麻之外,还种植了一些同样可以用来搓绳子的绳草。
但是在这里就不成了。
绳子这些东西,韩成他们走的时候本身就没少带,不过却没有携带用到建筑上面的。
他们所携带的这些绳子,基本上都是行走的途中,进行安营扎寨之类的时候使用的,很是重要,自然不能用到此时的建造房屋之上。
所以就有了众人吃完晚饭之后,围着火堆加班进行揭树皮的一幕。
揭下来的树皮,会被那些几个手比较巧的女人,将之搓成绳子。
这种用树皮搓出来的绳子不粗,主要为了编织栅子用。
对于这种加班加点的工作,众人没有怨言,这一方面是因为这是在给自己部落修建新的部落,是每一个青雀部落的人都应该做的事情。
而且神子也已经说过了,将这些房屋修建好了之后,他们就会启程往主部落返,将自己等人在这里见到的种种好东西,告诉部落里的人。
另外一个方面就是,晚上加班干活了,神子总会说上一些很有意思,或者是极为神奇的东西给大家伙听。
众人对于神子所讲述的这些东西,都非常的喜欢。
甚至于许许多多的人觉得,只要夜夜都能听到神子讲述这些,夜夜都加班,不哼小曲他们都愿意。
神子讲述的这些东西,可比哼唱小曲有意思太多了!
此时的韩成,完全化身成为了后世八九十年代、被抬到外面,放到桌子上的黑白小电视,只要到了晚上,就会有很多的人围拢过来看。
韩成倒也很是享受这样的待遇,一方面通过这样的事情,在让部落里的人开启眼界,增长见识的同时,他也能够塞些私货进去,让他们朝着自己想想的方面发展。
另外一方面就是,跟部落里将故事一般的说着这些事情的时候,自己可以光明正大的进行偷懒。
看着别人在那里干活,自己却能够在一旁暗戳戳的摸鱼,这种感觉很是奇妙啊……
天色阴沉下来,外面下着不小的雨,就算是人们已经提前在帐篷上面覆盖上了菖蒲,帐篷里面也还是潮湿一片,这种湿漉漉的感觉令人很是难受。
This is the disadvantage of a temporary camp. It is okay on weekdays, but it becomes uncomfortable when it is windy and rainy.
Looking through the gaps in the tents, many people squatting inside looked at the twelve flat houses that had already been built, and they all wanted to finish building them as soon as possible.
This way, when it rains next time, they can live in the house and don't have to suffer this kind of pain again...
A heavy rain fell, and the water that did not have time to seep into the ground flowed along the gullies into the river, causing the river water to rise significantly.
Han Cheng, wearing a straw raincoat and a bamboo hat, stood in the temporary camp, looking towards the rice fields in the distance, worried that the rice would be washed away by the rising river water.
Although I know this is a waste of worry...
