Chapter 307: Farming and Infrastructure in Primitive Society 22
Driven by money, Jiang Lan quickly selected a city construction blueprint that satisfied her.
This blueprint was planned in great detail, dividing the living area, leisure area, commercial area, breeding area, etc. It
also circled the inner city and the outer city to distinguish the members of different tribes.
What's even more amazing is that this blueprint also drew defensive fortifications.
A moat was dug around the central city area, which can not only raise fish and prevent floods, but also serve as a safe barrier.
Jiang Lan felt that since it was going to be built, it should be built thoroughly. After all, cement bricks and stones are not as good as reinforced concrete frame structures.
If a little more glass is fired, the feeling will be different.
Jiang Lan wanted to push the project forward as soon as possible, but there were too few people in the tribe right now, and he needed to recruit some labor from outside.
At this time, traveling merchants also brought some people from other tribes here one after another.
The conditions in these tribes are basically very poor, that is, the small tribes where ordinary people can't eat enough. When they are
poor, they think of change. As long as they can live a good life, they don't care which big brother they follow.
When these ragged people arrived, the reception staff of the Huangyan tribe took them to take a bath, trimmed their hair and nails, and then gave them a new set of clothes and three days of food.
The kindness of the Huangyan tribe touched many people, and they also made up their minds to stay. People's
hearts can be twisted into a rope, that is the yearning for happiness.
Efforts are not for others, but to become a part of happiness.
As the number of people in the tribe continues to increase, the labor gap is gradually filled.
People in primitive society do not have too high requirements, as long as they are well fed and warmly clothed.
One meal can make them work for a day, which can be called the cheapest labor.
In this way, the city on Jiang Lan's drawing became a reality little by little. This is a miracle built by manpower.
Soon, the second winter came.
This time, the people of the Huangyan tribe were no longer afraid of hunger and freezing.
They survived last year, and they are even less afraid this year.
The usual snow is like a demon, and every time it comes, it will reap the lives of the tribe.
But now they don't think so, and they even take their children to play in the snow for a while.
Jiang Lan made all the feathers exchanged from the Changyu Tribe into down jackets and put them for sale in the exchange hall.
The price is indeed not low, and it is a luxury item in the tribe.
Tribesmen who can't afford down jackets can also buy a cotton jacket.
Although the cotton jacket is bulky, it has a strong warmth-keeping effect and is very affordable.
With winter equipment, everyone is not so afraid of the cold, and they are even in the mood to play outside.
Ayu's restaurant is still booming in winter. Recently, she launched a hot pot set meal, which has set off another wave of queuing.
Jiang Lan discovered that Ayu, a time-traveling girl, was actually following the path of farming literature instead of an improper path. It turned out that her thinking was unhealthy.
It snowed for several days, and the snow piled up thicker and thicker.
The warriors of the Huangyan tribe spontaneously organized a team and went to the streets to shovel snow.
Salt can be used to melt snow, but salt is so precious that only Jiang Lan is willing to take it out for everyone to use.
In the usual winter, everyone stayed in the house.
This year, Jiang Lan wanted to try something new to enrich the entertainment life of the people in the tribe.
Not only did she build an ice rink and organize the people in the tribe to skate together, she also made a lot of sleds and taught the people in the tribe to ski together.
At the end of the year, Jiang Lan held a lantern festival and a word recognition competition.
The tribal school has been in operation for several months, and the results are still good. Writing is a little worse, but recognizing words is still no problem.
You need to eat well, wear warm clothes, and be rich in material things.
You need to learn, create, and be rich in spirit.
The best way to resist foreign enemies is to strengthen yourself, which is the core.
The original owner more or less blamed Ayu for the demise of the tribe, but Jiang Lan felt that Ayu was just an opportunity.
This opportunity may be someone in the Huangyan tribe, or it may be a certain resource, or even no reason at all.
Ayu is doing well now, focusing on construction, and absolutely has no romantic thoughts, which has fulfilled the original owner's wish.
Time passed quickly, and as the city of the Huangyan tribe was built little by little, more and more tribes came to join them.
Huangyan City is now famous and is the dream city in the hearts of many tribesmen.
The people of Huangyan City are not exclusive. No matter who you are, once you come here, you are a member of Huangyan City.
In addition, they are also very generous.
Whether it is writing or skills, they are not reserved at all, and they will take the initiative to help outsiders learn.
Just in the outer city, people can learn a skill to support their families, and if it is the inner city, it goes without saying.
It’s just that it’s easy for everyone to enter the outer city. As long as you follow the rules, you will not be expelled.
But if you want to enter the inner city, you need to make enough contributions.
"Are the people in Huangyan City so rich?"
Qi came to Huangyan City for the first time, and his heart was full of anxiety and uneasiness.
He looked down at his tattered animal skin skirt and couldn't help feeling a little inferior.
"In Huangyan City, as long as you work hard, you can live
a good life." The leader patted Qi on the shoulder and encouraged him: "Keep going, if you can get the qualification to enter the inner city of Huangyan City, it will not only be a good life."
Qi did not say anything. He came to Huangyan City this time not to become a Huangyan City person, but to learn some knowledge and then return to the tribe to lead everyone out of poverty.
If possible, Qi wanted to go to the inner city to see and meet the lucky man favored by the gods in the legend, the city lord of Huangyan City - Lan.
Jiang Lan, who was missed by countless people at the moment, was testing her first steam train.
Tracks had been laid in the inner city. As the whistle sounded, the long steam train started, causing cheers from the crowd.
"Great, really amazing!"
"Next time we can take this iron lump to the street to buy things."
"It just so happens that I like a piece of clothing..."
The test result was very successful, and Jiang Lan breathed a sigh of relief.
But she didn't have time to rest. Next, she planned to rebuild the currency system.
Huangyan City has been using hemp rope for transactions for many years, but hemp rope still has its drawbacks. It is more appropriate to make currency out of metal.
However, what the currency should look like has stumped Jiang Lan again.
Jiang Lan simply issued a notice of a currency recast bounty. Whoever's design was adopted would receive a reward from the city lord. It was absolutely fair.
Jiang Lan's authority was unquestionable. After the bounty was announced, the entire Huangyan City became agitated and started drawing.
