Ma Yue is having a hard time. With so many people doing so much hard work, they need to have enough food. Even if they only eat carrots, they won't be able to keep themselves from getting hungry, right?
Seeing that the harvested mammoth is almost finished, I think I should contribute to the construction of the wall.
Ma Yue continued to follow the hunting team. I don’t know if Ma Yue’s luck has always been good, but after two months of continuous attacks, Ma Yue hunted down four huge mammoths.
With sufficient food, the people of the Sea Tribe became more and more enthusiastic about working.
I quit! Now that there was enough food, Ma Yue decided not to go out again.
The white lime mortar masonry stone, as it turns out, did get to know a lot.
The power of the working people is immeasurable. With winter just around the corner, they've already built over 400 meters of wall, with an additional 50 meters of rubble stone foundation. And this without an excavator, not even a shovel...
At this rate of progress, wouldn't it be completed by just one more attempt next year?
"What a pity! If only... everything could be completed." The two priests and three leaders were still not satisfied.
With such a towering stone wall, you don’t even have to worry about fire attacks. Who wouldn’t like that real sense of security?
"Is it still a little small?"
Holy shit! Ma Yue was almost shocked. It’s over 60,000 square meters. How many people do you want to live here?
There were no private rooms back then. Primitive people almost always had bunk beds close together, just like a large bunk bed. As long as two rows of wood were used to build a large wooden house...
Forget it, there are already two rows of log cabins, don't waste them, just live there. The house is relatively in the middle, so it's not a big deal. It's a pity that the retaining wall ditch and log wall were wasted.
"We can't waste it. We should use the wood from the wall to build our house."
"It was too crowded before, isn't it more spacious now?"
"Let's wait until the stone wall is finished."
"That's next year."
"After the Stone City is built, there must be outer walls and ravines. They provide the most solid defense, and there are also defensive platforms..."
The two priests and three leaders began to plan the blueprint for the future.
Indeed, the original log cabin was crowded. It was warm in the winter, but hot enough in the summer to easily cause heat rash. The tribe now has 700 people, and each bed is 1.5 meters wide, which should be plenty.
Each row of log cabins houses two large rows of beds. If you want more space, just build a few more rows of log cabins. Generally speaking, there's a lot of free time in the summer and fall.
Construction is not something that can be rushed... Forget it, look at the two priests and three leaders, each one is more impatient than the other.
"Everyone, stop talking nonsense and hurry up for the autumn harvest!" At the call of the high priest, men, women, young and old all went into battle.
It's another harvest festival, and the people in the tribe are celebrating happily and eating and drinking.
The attentive high priest has not forgotten to sow another ten acres of green onion seeds, hoping that green onion seedlings will grow next year.
The long-distance trade team went to Sun City twice this year. Regardless of whether they were slightly inferior green onions or coarse salt, they at least exchanged for a lot of wildebeests.
Today's Hai tribe has a special liking for wildebeests. They eat grass and do the work of two or three strong laborers. How can they not like them?
There are nearly 180 adult wildebeests alone, and many calves are constantly being produced.
The two priests and three chiefs were very busy. A good harvest was not the end of the matter. Large quantities of radishes were gradually pickled into salted radish strips, which were easy to store and delicious. They were the favorite of the people of the Wodong Hai tribe.
Radishes could no longer be grown, and the large-scale salt-making campaign began again.
Huangpi and Heipi were very depressed. They still hadn't found the clay they had been waiting for. Ma Yue offered some comfort. The large-scale salt-boiling campaign in winter had consumed a lot of pottery pots, so Huangpi and Heipi continued with their crude and inefficient work of firing pots.
"The salt-boiling team has returned and captured a few people, saying they came from the sea."
Holy shit! Is there really a ship on the sea?
Several people were taken into Ma Yue's cave.
"Can you build ships?" Ma Yue asked. Of course, the high priest and the second priest would need to work together to translate. There were too many dialects among the primitive people, and Ma Yue himself was not interested in learning any dialect, right?
"We escaped." It's hard to describe what a boat is. I'll just find a chance and go to the beach to see for myself.
"Where are you from?"
"Ghost Mountain!"
Ma Yue had heard that many of the people bought by his tribe were sold from there.
“Ghost Mountain is also close to the sea?”
"Yes, our Goldfish Tribe is located in the peninsula area by the sea."
Ma Yue roughly understood the translation. He had heard that the Ghost Mountain area was in chaos and there were constant wars. This Goldfish Tribe seemed to be quite large, with more than 200 to 300 able-bodied men.
Of course, the constant attacks from Ghost Mountain and the Goldfish Tribe's constant annexation of others are the reason they have so many able-bodied men. Two or three hundred able-bodied men are not a small tribe, no matter where they are. Even such a large tribe was conquered, wasn't it?
Ma Yue braved the cold wind and followed them to the beach. A boat? It looked a bit like that, with many logs tied together, and the sides were also tied together with logs, but the logs were much thinner than the bottom of the boat, and there were logs connecting the middle, so it was quite sturdy.
It's good enough to be able to build such a sea vessel, even if it's a little simple.
The boat was not small, ten meters long and more than four meters wide. Ma Yue was curious about whether the bottom of the boat was leaky.
It turned out that the boat's bottom and the one-meter-high sides were covered in a large piece of leather similar to whale skin, so it was no wonder it didn't leak. In the past, there were whales that were over ten meters long. What's more, the whales in this world seemed to be even larger than those in the past.
