Chapter 49 Ande has thousands of mansions, cutting down trees and burning bricks for a year

If the state is too tight, it is easy for people to have persecution paranoia.

Therefore, after Wang Xu surveyed enough clay layers, he no longer followed Wang Li and them as a hunting and exploration team, but concentrated on staying in the base to burn bricks, plan the land, survey the direction of the river, and study all the unknown plants in the surrounding area.

This kind of life made Wang Xu feel comfortable, and his state gradually eased up, and when the weather was getting hotter and hotter, Wang Xu would also take the children to dig cicada cocoons around and roast them.

Under the leadership of Wang Xu, the menu of the Guzhu people has expanded a lot, in addition to fish, shrimp, crabs, and mussel screws, various roasted insects have also been added, which has enriched the daily dining table of the originally resource-poor tribe.

In order to prove his ability, Modin frantically searched the forest for the habitat of various animals, and finally found the group of mountain babes, killed the adult wild boars, and brought back sixteen and a half large piglets, and won the reward of Wang Xu, rewarding him with two stone bows and a wolfskin cloak and hat shaped like Mo Ren.

Peacefully resolved the contradiction between Mo Ren and Mo Ding, and these two people after a few days of cold war, and inexplicably hooked up and became good friends, according to the report of the ink wolf, it should be that the two reached some kind of cooperative relationship, Mo Ding is responsible for helping Mo Ren find more animal cubs to domesticate, Mo Ren taught Mo Ding how to communicate with the gods.

Capable people begin to generate their own ideas, cooperate with each other, and develop their strengths and avoid weaknesses, which is a sign that a team is on the right track, and Wang Xu is happy to see this change.

After Mo Lian finally taught Qing Niang how to recognize the oracle bone inscription and simple Yayan, this forest finally didn't have much of a secret for Wang Xu.

It turned out that the fruits and grains of this tribe were brought back by mandrills from the depths of the dense forests far away, but where it was, only the mandrills knew, and the savages did not dare to enter the forest, because any kind of fierce beast in the forest, even the mountain mandrills, could take the lives of this group of wild people in the Stone Age.

But although you can't go into the forest, you can go south along the stream, where the wild people mainly hunt, and there are flocks of pheasants and all kinds of birds and birds for them to hunt, according to Qing Niang's description, the birds there are like sand all over the mountains in the summer and autumn season.

This area of Qinhuangdao has been a famous bird habitat and breeding ground in the country for later generations, not to mention the ancient period when it was not damaged by the human environment.

However, it is only in the summer and autumn seasons that the wild people can catch enough food, and the rest of the spring and winter can only rely on the food brought back by the mandrills.

And Wang Xu also got the news he wanted, in the direction of the south, there were indeed many other tribes, but Qingniang only learned from the dead leader, it is said that the tribesmen over there live on big fish and live by the sea.

Wang Xu planned to wait for the first houses of the tribe to be built, and then go south to have a look.

After more than ten days of hard work, the first batch of red bricks of the brick kiln was finally unearthed, Mo Kui knelt in front of Wang Xu with the red bricks, crying and shouting to prevent Wang Xu from using this treasure to build a house for the clansmen, he thought that this kind of treasure can only be enjoyed by the emperor and the gods, so he wanted to build an altar temple to comfort the ancestors of Yin Shang.

Wang Xu took out the ipad, knocked on the aluminum alloy made by the craftsmanship of later generations, and said: "Red bricks are not worthy of being enjoyed by the gods, only this is qualified." ”

Mo Kui looked at the red brick full of bubble cracks in his arms, and then looked at the aluminum alloy that shimmered with fairy energy, and was speechless.

Due to the immaturity of equipment and technology, the quality of the first batch of fired masonry was not very good, and there was no cement, Wang Xu could only choose to use lime and clay to make a simple lime slurry as a bond, and built a two-meter-high stone wall to sit down for strength testing, and the results were unsatisfactory.

"Would you like to try adding a layer of wood to the outside?" The Zhu family made a suggestion.

Wang Xu raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes were happy, the Zhu family's method is very good, the two layers of wooden boards are filled with masonry, which can not only ensure the thickness and hardness of the wall, but also solve the problem of insufficient viscosity of lime mortar.

"Mr. Zhu still understands carpentry construction?" Wang Xu asked curiously.

"The ancestor is a great worker of the Lu country, and he got some fur from his father, which made the emperor smile." The Zhu family said humbly.

"Don't be modest, hurry up and help us operate, we really don't know anything about building a house." Wang Xu said with a smile.

Zhu Jiagong arched his hand and "do his best." ”

Then I went to communicate with Tu Shan Lady about the production method of the wooden brick wall.

"We've done you such a great favor, so we have to be interesting." Breaking the crab legs, Wang Li chuckled.

"If you take back Xianyang with my brick-burning method, at least let King Qin reward you with a promotion." Wang Xu said with a smile.

"What's the use of me asking for a knighthood?" Wang Li rolled his eyes.

"And what more do you want?" Wang Xu asked rhetorically.

Wang Li blinked and licked his fingers, "It seems that there is really nothing I want." ”

"So don't be me." Wang Xu chuckled and shook his head: "Are river crabs delicious?" ”

"Okay." Wang glanced at the crab shells piled up into a hill next to him, and burped.

"In a few days, you should be able to taste the sea crab." Wang Xu chuckled.

"When do you go south for a walk, I'm going to die of boredom." Wang Li got up and patted his stomach.

This guy has gained a lot of weight recently, his figure is getting stronger and stronger, and he has learned from Wang Xu how to exercise muscle lines, and he is becoming more and more heroic.

"At least the inner walls should be built." Wang Xu smiled as he looked at the two horses on the wooden track with a small train carriage carrying a cart of clay and stones.

"Wooden rail transportation is really convenient, but I am afraid of rain, and it is not good for the land to be soft and sunken." Wang Li yawned and looked at the wooden rail on the other side.

Mo Ren drove a large group of roe deer to stop next to the deer pen slowly, and a large group of mandrills rushed up to carry all the weeds on the carriage into the deer pen.

"That fool really did driving a roe deer." Wang Li touched his nose and smiled.

"Yes, although the speed is not as good as the carriage, at least it has solved a lot of problems, at least the forage for the livestock in the clan, he can now solve it alone." Wang Xu also smiled and nodded, he didn't expect Mo Ren to be able to train the roe deer so quickly.

But what amazed him even more was the mandrill domesticated by the green lady, after the green lady and the mandrill came into contact that day, the mandrill gradually integrated into the lonely bamboo country, although at first many people were very afraid of this big beast, but after a long time they got used to it.

Moreover, the mandrill is extremely smart, not only can help the green lady pick fruits, but also can do some simple mechanical work, such as the work that the clan is now carrying is done by these mandrills.

As long as it is beneficial to the clan, the clansmen are easy to accept, and after a long period of contact, the clansmen are no longer afraid of these big guys.

Wang Xu is asking the young lady to train the mandrill to smash lime, the mandrill has more strength than most people, and has violent genes, this job is just right for them.

If you count these mandrills, the labor force in the tribe is already more than 400 people, and under the division of labor, the tribe has visible changes every day.

The wooden brick wall of the Zhu family and Tu Shan Lady was quickly made, mainly because the trees in this forest are too huge, and they can be cut at will to separate a whole wooden board two meters high and more than ten meters long, and a huge red pine book can provide a forty-square-meter bungalow construction.

Although in Wang Xu's eyes, this bungalow is more like a large shipping container, for the clansmen, this simple bungalow is tantamount to a 'palace', much better than the thatched hut they lived in before.

"Although it is very simple, not as big as my thatched house, but it is better than most houses in Xianyang, what are you not satisfied with?" Wang Li looked at the bungalows that more than a dozen strong men had not knocked down, and asked with a smile.

"It's still a bit too much trouble, and it's even better if you have cement." Wang Xu smiled and shook his head, and summoned the Tushan lady with a happy face, and asked her to start building the foundation next to the big hot spring on the hillside tomorrow.

Use that large hot spring as a backyard and build a large dormitory around it that can sleep 100 people.

If it weren't for the sulfur emitted by the hot springs, which sometimes increased the concentration of carbon dioxide and caused suffocation due to lack of oxygen, Wang Xu wanted to build a large bathhouse for his people to live in, because then there would be no need to build a separate ondol.

However, there are already bricks and lime mortar, and it is only a matter of time before the kang is laid.

The emergence of the ondol is a necessary element for the development of the severe cold region of Northeast China, which is rich in all natural resources, but at the same time has a deadly cold.

Before the earth became cold, the primitive humans on this land were widely distributed, but as the climate became colder, the harsh climate forced these primitive humans to migrate in large numbers.

The Chinese people have rich experience in fighting against nature, and one of the products of the experience of the fire kang is that the people in this cold region of the Northeast can survive the terrible winter.

And, of course, mink coats.

Wang Xu just relayed the theory of the kang to Tu Shan Niangzi, and Tu Shan Niangzi took out the fire kang in a short time, and got the stove and chimney out.

Wang Li sat cross-legged on the kang, feeling the gradually growing temperature under his buttocks, and said seriously, "Now I can truly believe that you can really build a country of millions here." ”

Wang Xu had a smile on his face, looked down at the clansmen eating dinner around the bonfire at the foot of the mountain, and chuckled: "There are tens of thousands of mansions in Ande? ”

Wang Li blinked: "Cut down trees and burn bricks for a year?" ”

Wang Xu was stunned for a moment and laughed, "Good poetry." ”
