Volume 2 Playing with the Tribe Chapter 200 Nanniwan
Talent is very important, so Ding Qi has been trying to find capable people in all aspects, give them room to grow, and promote the development of the tribe, and what Ding Qi has to do is to guide these talents to develop a certain professional thing to the extreme, innovate and research and put it into practice.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ding Qi told Niu Er a little more about tanning animal skins. From peeling, degreasing, drying, drying, nitration, cleaning, secondary treatment to molding, there is no omission to teach Niu Er what he knows about tanning animal skins.
The two talked as they walked, and soon came to the field where the leeks had just been planted, and squatted down to check the growth of the leeks.
The freshly planted leeks were a little wilted, and the exposed part lay flat on the soil, as if it would die completely after a while. But Ding Qi knew that no matter what outsiders thought of it, it would grow stubbornly, and its growth rate would gradually increase, and that wilting appearance would soon recover. Although the leeks on the top have been cut off now, and only a few roots remain, in a few days, the leaves will grow on the top.
Ding Qi beckoned two or three more people to come over, fetch water from clay pots, and water the leek field twice. The enthusiasm of the people was very high, even if the work was a little tiring, but they still worked hard, because they were working with the leader.
Ding Qi also talked and laughed with everyone, joking with each other. In the army, every soldier is a master of mobilizing the atmosphere, and one or two sentences can bring people who don't know each other a lot closer, not to mention that now everyone is an acquaintance, and the atmosphere is becoming more and more enthusiastic when they talk.
While speaking, a young man hummed a tune while playing water, the tune was abrupt and powerful, but the end note was a little long, and after listening to it for a long time, people felt like they wanted to go up and beat him. However, the meaning of the lyrics is easier to understand, and according to the meaning of the 21st century, it is nothing more than that men and women in love miss each other, and there is such a rush to meet after dusk.
Ding Qi listened curiously, and others were also making fun of the young man, saying that the tune of his chorus in this scene was a bit out of place, and then everyone pointed the finger at Ding Qi, and asked the leader to sing a ballad that was appropriate to the occasion.
Ding Qi didn't dampen everyone's enthusiasm, he didn't think about it for a while, he stood up, put the clay pot on the ground, paced two steps forward, and looked at the scenery at the bottom of the slope in front of him.
The meadows are full of spring flowers, and the half-human-high green meadows are like waves in the wind, revealing the hidden antelopes, spotted deer, and wild sheep.
The water under the grassy slope is vast, and the water birds and songbirds wade through the water to feed, the water splashes and swim fish. A group of people were fishing on the shore, and the silver glow was particularly dazzling in the sunlight, and the splash of the churning fish came from afar with the laughter of the people.
The busy figure of people on the construction site on the left hand, with the sweat, ups and downs, bursts of horns, let people feel everyone's unity, the spirit of hard work, up and down, one heart and one mind, dare to be the first.
Looking at such a scene, a song that has been sung all over the country naturally sings from Ding Qi's mouth:
"The flowers in the flower basket are fragrant, listen to me sing and sing, and I came to Nanniwan, a good place and a good place in Nanniwan. Good place to have good scenery, good place to good scenery, crops everywhere are cattle and sheep......"
A song "Nanniwan" sings the most sincere feelings in Ding Qi's heart, and it is a feeling for the current hard work and construction of all the people of the Ding tribe regardless of pay or remuneration.
The first half of the tune is soft and euphemistic, the second half is cheerful and jumping, the melody is beautiful and lyrical, which makes several people who hear this song for the first time revel in it, and their hearts are full of yearning for this beautiful life.
The music is interconnected, and although their expression of the meaning is somewhat vague, the melody of the ballad and the affection poured into it can be felt.
After singing a song, everyone stepped forward to ask where Nanniwan was, and Jiangnan was there
He Fang even expressed great interest in the 359th Brigade.
Taking advantage of everyone's enthusiasm, Ding Qi hurriedly told everyone about the origin of Nanniwan in the way of understanding the primitive tribe.
He pointed out that it was a particularly famous place in his distant hometown, where the people worked hard and self-reliant, and with their own diligence and sweat, they had the courage to create, dare to be the first, and overcome the difficulties together, turning the original desolate land overgrown with weeds, thorns, sparse people, and wild beasts into a paradise full of cattle and sheep, sufficient food, rich people's lives, and full of food and clothing.
Ding Qi was telling the story, and his thoughts returned to that home and era, and he didn't know that a bunch of people had gathered around him, especially the small drama crew of Lu Qi, who followed the singing and heard the story told by Ding Qi.
Ding Qi woke up from his contemplation abruptly, and was a little embarrassed to suddenly see so many people here, but he quickly cheered up and said:
"Brothers and sisters, this ballad is sung in my distant hometown, but the spirit of self-reliance and hard work contained in it is worth learning from all of us.
"Good!"
Warm applause rang out, and the two cheeks of the doctor witch deer were red with excitement, and a voice in his heart kept saying:
"That's the subject! That's the subject! ”
At the request of everyone, Ding Qi sang "Nanniwan" three times in a row before being let go.
A song "Nanniwan" began to become popular throughout the Ding tribe, whether it was the internal personnel of the Ding tribe or the three tribes from outside, whether it was during the rest period or in the middle of the hard work and construction, this "Nanniwan" has never left their mouths. And, through the mouths of the three tribes, it spread to the other tribes.
Through the singing of this ballad, they are more and more full of yearning for the future life, and they have great curiosity about the Ding tribe where this ballad is sung, because through the three tribes, there is also the wealth and security of the Ding tribe, there is no hunger, cold, fierce beasts, and no tribe dumping, it is an ideal holy place for people to survive.
The crowd gradually dispersed, but the work of pouring the leek field was not finished, a young man who took the initiative to step forward snatched the clay pot from Ding Qi's hand, carried a full jar from the stream, and hummed Nanniwan in his mouth, but he didn't pay attention to the slippery feet, and fell to the ground.
Smack!
The fragments of the clay pot scattered all over the ground with the flow of water, which also attracted Ding Qi's gaze, and the weakness of the pottery finally appeared.
At night, the slogans of the Zhuang training recruits were heard in the distance, but the ears were full of the tune of "Nanniwan". Ding Qi smiled wryly, so he had to close the wooden door tightly, slightly reduce the annoyance caused by everyone's enthusiasm, and began to continue to explain the construction of the wooden barrel to Jing's carpenter group.
The broken clay pot reminded Ding Qi to make some indestructible objects as soon as possible, and the bucket was one of them.
Ding Qi is very annoyed, there is no paper and pen, and it is really difficult for him to draw buckets for everyone. At present, there is no suitable hemp or silkworm for spinning, and it is not realistic to make linen or silk. The production of paper depends on the existence of these two things, so he can only think about it, and he has to focus on how to make everyone understand the structure and principle of the barrel.
It's still the same old saying, haven't you ever eaten pork, haven't you ever seen a pig run? Although the price of pork is really expensive nowadays.
Ding Qi asked people to find a round plank, two green bamboos, and a dozen narrow planks, and prepared to talk about the structure of the barrel. The round wooden board is the bottom of the wooden barrel, and the green bamboo makes people break into bamboo strips, and then the upper layer of bamboo is broken, twisted into a head and tail connected and coiled into a circle of bamboo ropes, as a hoop on the outside of the barrel.
Ding Qi placed narrow planks along the round planks towards the round bamboo ropes, slowly forming a circle and joining together to form one
barrel-shaped. The principle is very simple, but Ding Qi has been explaining to everyone the importance of barrel sealing, the barrel leaks, then the barrel is wasted.
Jing, a member of the carpenter group, is very smart, and after Ding Qi explained it once, he basically understood the principle of making a barrel. And Ding Qi can only talk so much, as for how to ensure the sealing between the wooden boards, how to tighten the hoops, etc., it is not something he can master, and can only be solved by this group of "professional" personnel in the primitive period. Once the road is clear, it depends on how they go, and Ding Qi only looks at the result.
As for what tools and materials will be needed to make wooden barrels, they will be built by the smelting team they are responsible for to the red deer, and now that smelting team has gathered some skilled hands who have smelted in the mines of the Ding tribe and the Qing tribe, and it is relatively fast to make, and the first blacksmiths in human history can be regarded as being born.
Recently, the labor intensity is high, and everyone's physical pressure is also very great, Ding Qi also hopes to give everyone a certain amount of relaxation, and announced that night that all the staff will have a day off tomorrow, and at the same time stipulate that every six days of work will be a day off.
On this day, everyone can do whatever they want, and no one interferes. Canteens, bathhouses, football fields, swings, crutches, etc., are fun for the tribes who come into contact with these for the first time.
Those who don't want to play can also stay in the tribe and accept the teachings of the Ding tribe, including rope rubbing, basket weaving, breeding and other things that are not too secret, so that they have an additional way to live. Among the people here, most of them belong to the Baipu tribe, about a dozen, and only three or four people from the other two tribes come to study.
On this day of rest, everyone can only rest and play in the specified area, and other places are not allowed to go, including the warehouse where the Ding tribe keeps tools, which is guarded by a special person, and no one is allowed to approach. Some dangerous places are also forbidden to set foot in, so as not to cause accidents, Ding Qi does not want to contribute more bronzes to Bai Pu and the other three tribes
At that time, he was also forced to do so, he didn't want to give a bad impression to the three tribes, but he wanted to continue to expand the scale of the tribe.
The tribe's production tools, weapons, etc. are managed in a unified manner, and they are distributed only when they are used, and things such as weapons and axes are still distributed separately and finally distributed, so that outsiders do not know, and cutting trees and trees are also avoided by outsiders, and when they come back, they are also the first to come back, and the secrecy work can be said to be done at home.
Although the Baipu tribe was previously supplied with a bronze axe and two saw blades, it has been stated that the stock is limited and brought from the previous tribe. According to the human sophistication of primitive people, I shouldn't think much about it!
After a day of rest, everyone's mental state has improved a lot, and the next day they devote themselves to the construction of the construction site, full of energy, of course, it does not exclude the results of the mental arousal after the men and women who formed a pair.
Like the warriors of the White Fangs, the bears, and the moo, they were even more energetic, and they cut out a third more wood than before, which made the patrol here greatly appreciated, and said that the decision to take a leave was the right one.
The people who came to transport the wood were all new to the tribe, Red Bull, the young and strong people of the Qiu tribe, and as for the Gurung tribe, a large part of the people went to the forest to attract bees and butterflies, and Ding Qi sent them a major task, which was to find the queen bee and raise bees. Ding Qi needed one of the important products, so he had to look for them in large quantities, and Jing and the others were already making a large number of beehives.
In the afternoon, Ding Qi came to the cave kiln to check the progress of burning bricks, ten sunken caves have been built, the work of making bricks and burning bricks is also full power, the work of burning charcoal and lime in the ash kiln is also non-stop, everyone cooperates with each other, and the red bricks produced have reached as many as 500,000 pieces, and the foundations of the four city walls have been built as small as half a meter high.
At this moment, a warrior rushed from the side of the mountain on horseback, ran to Ding Qi in a puff of smoke, dismounted panting, and whispered to Ding Qi:
"Something's wrong!"
