Volume 2 Planting Chapter 141 Making the Quyuan Plough/1 (Proofread)
After Wang Tian proposed the allocation of rooms to Wu, Wu was unwilling to live in a large suite alone, and proposed to be accompanied by Huo 1 and Huo 2.
Wang Tian knew that this was the reason why the old man Wu was afraid of loneliness, so he naturally would not object, in fact, it stands to reason that Wang Tian and Wu can live together, there is no need for him to be a villain, but he lives in three rooms, covering an area of 100 square meters.
But Wang Tian came from the later generations, has been accustomed to paying attention to personal privacy, in the cave before, had to listen to the original singing for two months, now that he has a separate room, he is naturally no longer willing to be crowded with others.
"Wu, I'm used to living alone, so quiet, let's live in a room that looks very high-end, so the light is good!" I'll talk to you if it's okay.
He felt a little embarrassed that Wang Tian didn't live in the same room with Wu, after all, when he first crossed over, Wu Ke gave up his own bed to Wang Tian.
Wang Tian refers to the two suites on the left and right sides of the ancestral hall, because they are located on the outermost side, so the three rooms have windows, and the lighting and ventilation are the best. In the middle suite, there are only two windows on the side of the cliff.
At this point, Wang Tian took advantage of his privileges and picked the most comfortable house for himself, and the dream of having a house and a car Wang Tian finally fulfilled his wish in the Tianlong tribe of the primitive society.
In the two days before entering the group, Wang Tian planned to make the Quyuan plow, so that Xiaofuma could also contribute to the cultivation of wasteland and speed up the progress of land reclamation.
He plans to open up 300 acres of arable land by the end of this year to grow corn, soybeans and various vegetables for breeding.
In fact, with the current amount of seeds, there is no need for so much land, anyway, sooner or later it will have to be cultivated, and Wang Tian plans to reclaim it all as soon as possible.
The making of the curved plough is not complicated, but the difficulty is the bending of the wood and the connection between them.
Wang Tian plans to use natural curved wood as much as possible for production, anyway, in the primeval forest, there are all kinds of wood shapes.
He took out a charcoal pen and drew the general shape of the zigzag plough on the paper, and handed it to the second brother of King Kong, asking him to go to the jungle tomorrow to find suitable wood.
The shape of the curved plough is somewhat like the shape of the "style", and the part of the word "work" is the plough bed, also called the bottom of the plow, which is placed flat on the ground when used, and the front is equipped with a plow shovel that is slightly inclined to the ground, that is, the coulter of the cultivated land.
The plough wall is installed above the plough blade, which is used to push away the soil that is turned up, so that the soil is piled up on both sides of the path that is walked, can avoid the soil that is turned up to accumulate more and more, and block the road of the curved plow.
Quyuan refers to the oblique hook of the word "style", which is a curved arm that bends upwards and then points to the ground, "Yuan" refers to the straight wood that connects livestock, and "Quyuan" refers to this curved wood that connects livestock.
The curved wheel is connected with the whole curved wheel plough by the "plow arrow" installed in the middle position of the plough bed and the handrail "plow tip" used to control the direction at the tail of the curved plow.
The front end of the curve is very close to the ground, and a crossbar is tied on it, and ropes are put on the two ends of the crossbar, and a wide animal skin is tied at the place where it hangs on the shoulder of the ox, so that the pressure on the back of the ox will be reduced, and the damage to the livestock will be reduced.
Because the stress point of the curved plough is infinitely close to the ground, when the ox pulls, the direction of the ox walking, the center of gravity of the ox itself and the force point of the plough shovel are almost in the same straight line.
According to the principle of the resultant force, the force distance acting on the plough shovel is the largest, and the animal power can be effectively saved, thereby improving the efficiency of ploughing.
The most critical thing in the whole workpiece is the curved plough wheel, Wang Tian drew all the shapes he could think of, and he can find it for the second brother tomorrow.
……
Time passed like a white horse, fleeting, and after a short time, the sky darkened, and the people in the farming area had returned to the tribe, the second rejection horse was closed, the suspension bridge was pulled up, and the Tianlong tribe entered the night mode.
The warriors on duty on the wall fired rockets at the rows of braziers erected outside the wall, igniting the fish oil and firewood in the basins, and the blazing flames illuminated the open space around the tribe's gate.
After a day's work, the women of the tribe had already cooked their food, and they sat in the spacious pavilion canteen, talking to each other, and the evening breeze was very pleasant.
The scene in front of you has the charm of a small city outside the Saiwai, quiet, far-reaching, and eternal......
Then Wu announced the date of the move in and the distribution plan of the house, and everyone was overjoyed when they learned the news, and they had been looking forward to this day for a long time.
I was excited to think that every family had a single room, and I could live on a flat and comfortable kang, and the room was dry and bright, and everyone was like being beaten with chicken blood.
Wang Tian then asked everyone to hurry up at night to make animal leather shoes, and strive to make all the shoes when they entered the gang two days later.
"Xiaoli, you arrange a few people to harvest some thatch tomorrow and come back, you will be responsible for the logistics of the tribe in the future, Huzi will also participate in the ploughing of the cultivation area tomorrow, and you will be mainly responsible for these farm work in the future!"
Wang Tian began to implement his work arrangement, and then said: "Third brother, on the morning of entering the group, go and catch a net of fresh fish, add vegetables to the banquet of the group, remember not to catch too much, there are dozens of them." ”
Slender Toutuo scratched his head embarrassedly, respectfully agreed, Wang Tian continued: "Also, when the first snow falls, go and catch a net, this net can be caught a little more, it is not delicious to eat salted fish all the time, you can save it after the snow, keep it and eat it slowly later!" Do you understand? ”
Thin Tou Tuo nodded hurriedly, this thing has not caught fish since it was beaten by a witch, and now it is a joy to see the hunt.
Then he found Kuroko and asked him to find some red plant dye, and Kuroko brought a small plate of red fruit like sauce fruit, put it in a clay pot and mashed it, looked at the amount was a little small, and asked Kuroko to bring some more.
Later, he found Zhou and asked for a batch of paper, which he planned to make red paper to use to write couplets and add atmosphere to the wedding of Huzi and Xiaoli two days later.
He found a bamboo knife and cut fifty or sixty sheets of paper into 30×30 cm squares, which were used to write blessings and cut double happiness.
After that, five 80×80 cm squares were cut, which were pasted on the sides of the tribal gate and the ancestral hall, and one was to be pasted in the center of the ancestral altar.
Down is two pairs of couplets and horizontal batches with a length of 4 meters, which are also pasted on the gate of the tribe and the ancestral hall, and then there are two meters long room couplets and horizontal batches.
Now the longest paper in the tribe is one meter long, and the couplets can only be mended.
Finally, cut the cut leftovers into small strips of rectangles, which can be used to make lintels, as Chinese happy events, how can there be a lack of couplets and red.
The reason why Wang Tian did this was to reminisce about his past life, to set off the atmosphere, and third, to form a tradition and a convention.
All future happy events must be done, as a tradition of the Chinese, let's start from the primitive era, who called the tribe appeared a traverser.
Then I found a pig hair brush, dipped it in dye and smeared it on a square piece of paper, and after smearing, I found that the effect was very good, and I was happy to look at it.
"Kuroko, what's the name of this berry, and are there any picks yet?" In the future, these couplets will often be used in the tribe, and Wang Tian wants to collect more of these dyes and keep them for later use.
"Yes, there are many in the back mountains of the tribe, and this kind of fruit cannot be eaten, so birds and beasts will not peck at it." Kuroko replied respectfully.
He just didn't know what the use of painting the paper red during the day? Curious, he didn't ask.
"In this way, then tomorrow let the thin head tuo and them go to the back mountain to herd sheep, and collect more of these berries by the way, these are all good things." Wang Tian was relieved when he heard that there were many more.
He then greeted the witch, took the sackcloth that had covered the altar, and stuffed it into a clay pot, but it was also dyed red, and wrung out the excess dye by hand.
Later, a piece of 60×60 linen cloth was also dyed red, which was used as the bride's red hijab, and then there was a bundle of hemp rope to make big red flowers and red jokes to lead the bride
When they say the back mountain, they refer to the one on the left hand side of the tribe gate, the terrain is relatively steep, and only a small hill can be climbed near the first road of the tribe.
Considering the safety of the tribe, Wang Tian once wanted to have someone cut the small hill open, but then thinking about the workload, he could only do it.
After a peaceful night, everyone was looking forward to the arrival of the move-in date......
