033. Building a house
The area of the basin is very large, almost the size of two Beijing Forbidden City, as early as the construction of the steps, Sima Pianpian ran through the inside by himself, almost every corner, and planned the general area.
The geomorphological outline of the whole basin is an oblong oval in the northeast-southwest trend, with a long lake about 300 meters long and more than 20 meters wide in the same direction, bounded by the lake, dominated by forests in the northwest and grassland hills in the southeast. From the steps on the east side of the basin, there is a shrub and rocky area, and after a few hundred meters, there are some small hills and meadows, from which you can see the other side of the lake, there is a forest.
At present, there are several herbivorous animals such as bison, goats, and antelopes in the meadows, and there are also several litters of pheasants, hares, and wild boars in the forest. In the past, there were very few animals in the basin, and she only found some low-level animals such as squirrels, birds, and fish, and none of the large animals were found, but it was safer for primitive people to live, especially the weak children and the elderly.
Sima Pianpian planned to build a living area in the northwest of the basin, and the houses were all made of wood, and the wood in the basin forest was enough to build the houses where these people lived.
She first led everyone to the northwest, which is a flat land at the foot of the mountain, with an area of about 200 acres, and a lot of wood has been piled up.
She built a very simple wooden house, and because it was very simple, she asked primitive people to build it with her. She chose a vacant lot in the northernmost place, divided the primitive people into three groups, and found a few pieces on the side, and then she made a step, and the primitive people followed suit, and when she finished building, the primitive people should have almost built those houses. She first made a few ladders for primitive people, and told them what a mortise and tenon structure was, and then began to build:
In the first step, she found four of the thickest and straightest woods, and dug holes in the open space of her choice, which were one meter deep, and the length of the above-ground part was at least higher than the expected wall, and the four wooden inserts were connected to a rectangle, and the area enclosed by them was the area of the house.
The second step is to make the wall, choose four pieces of wood that are longer than the length and width of the house, surround the four pieces of wood, and connect them with a tenon and tenon structure, and the four corners of the rectangle are just set on the outside of the four woods. The same rectangle is done until it is stacked to the desired wall height, so that the four walls of the house are complete.
The third step is to make the roof, in the middle of the two slightly narrow walls, insert a thick and straight wood into each wall, which is higher than the wall, and the top of these two is also connected with a long wooden tenon to form a ridge, and then you can build a roof, use short and thin wood to connect the ridge with the top of the wide two walls, so as to erect two rows similar to fish bones, and connect them with tenons or ropes, and if there is more wood, you can row more to form the prototype of the roof.
The fourth step is reinforcement, use rope vines to tie the six thickest and straightest wood to each other, as long as these pieces of wood do not move, the rope vines are tied firmly enough, the house is basically fixed, if there is viscose or clay can stick between the wood of the wall, it is even more perfect.
The fifth step is to build the roof, cover it with animal skins, hay, etc., and then compact it with stone or wood.
The sixth step, open the door and open the window, this step is only she can do, in the case of covering the door and window, it is a little difficult, but for her it is just a matter of a few knives, after opening it, take two pieces of wood and support it on both sides of the door and window.
The seventh step is to close, check that there are no gaps, hang animal skins and other windproof on the walls, and install simple doors and windows or animal skin doors and curtains.
Completed.
Every step, she did it first, and then she went to guide the primitive people to do it, although they were slower, but there were many people, and it was neat to do. Within a day, all four houses were built, and the one made by Sima Pianpian was for her to live in, and she planned to take out one of the original man-made rooms to be used as a conference room, where everyone could hold meetings in the future, and the other two would also be used for other purposes in the future.
Houses should be classified, single rooms, family rooms, chase shops, etc., because the construction method is simple, so these houses are only counted as area, not pattern.
The single room is a small room of about 20 square meters, the family room is the same size as her room, there are 100 square meters, and the Chase Shop is the largest, with nearly 800 square meters, and the wood consumed is also the most, but there is no need to worry about the firmness, the larger the room, the more pillars inside, and a Chase Shop can accommodate 200 people to sleep openly. She will assign a single room to some managers to live, the family room will be given to some families, the chase shop is those old people and children, it is better to take care of a little bit, and there are several teams of single people, men and women also live in the chase shop temporarily, whether everyone can get a single room in the future, it depends on their table xiàn and the speed of building the house.
In addition to the above houses, warehouses, canteens, classrooms, toilets, etc. are also built. The first three can be similar to the Chase Shop, but the toilet is specially made.
The toilet is divided into men and women, Sima Pianpian will let people dig two holes four or five meters deep and one meter in diameter in a remote place, and make a few things similar to squatting pits with rocks, and install them in a wooden structure of the house, this small wooden house has a thick bottom of four square meters, and leave a gap, covered with a rock squatting pit, there are four rope sleeves outside the house, you can insert wooden sticks, the wooden house can be carried like a sedan chair, put it on the pit, it will immediately become a toilet, when the pit is almost full, dig another one, and replace the small house with a new hole, It turns out that it can be covered with soil or others, which is very convenient.
In the evening, let the primitive people go back to the foot of the mountain first, and now they have basically learned how to build, these days, she will take turns to arrange for them to build houses, and after building some, she will first let the people left behind move over, and begin to slowly adapt to the life of living in wooden houses.
During this period, primitive people had to build wooden houses on the one hand, familiarize themselves with the basin on the other, and pick up the long-lost intensive training, which was not easy!
……
Sima Pianpian entered her room, it was very empty, she touched her chin, "Well, it needs to be divided into two rooms, each is just 7*7, and the floor is ......" For a housemaid, the layout of the home is naturally very attentive, and there will be a lot of ideas, she can slowly fill it in the future to make her small home warmer.
Now, we have to make the small family habitable first.
She found a slender piece of wood, inserted it directly into the earth, and inserted a long row in the middle of the room, leaving only a door, and dividing the room in two, with the bedroom inside, the living room outside, and perhaps the kitchen. He also found a huge rock, cut it into ten centimeter-thick slices with a machete, and spread it all on the ground to serve as a floor.
As for the housing of primitive people, she will not interfere much, those are their private space, everyone will have their own ** in the future, and private property will also appear, these are historical inevitability, she is not opposed, and even in order to improve the enthusiasm of primitive people for work and training, it will also promote its development, but it is mainly based on public ownership, she hopes that collectivism is greater than individualism, and does not want primitive people to become selfish people, she allows the existence of classes, but the higher the class, the greater the responsibility.
What she wants to do in the future is to slowly transform the primitive group, which is simply a collective life and collective labor, into an organized tribe......
