Chapter 131: Sitting North and Facing South (Ask for the first order!) )

Braving the cold wind, the group crossed the river and climbed up the river beach into the forest, where the elevation difference between the river and the forest was tens of meters, and the slope formed was the land that had been burned by fire before.

This large area of forest is relatively flat, and you can see high mountains all around, and this place is not the highest, so it can be more or less protected from lightning splitting.

Su Yang doesn't pretend on weekdays, so he won't have thunder rolling on his head, counting the days, it can't be called next year, and the construction of a new tribe will start now.

When he was climbing the slope just now, he suddenly thought of the problem of drainage, if it rains heavily or something, the stagnant water on the mountain cannot be drained as soon as possible, it may cause a mudslide or something, and the sewage discharge of the new tribe at that time should also be paid attention to.

The solution is actually very simple, every other distance, dig a ditch from the mountain to the river, which is also a common flood drainage method in modern rural areas. The sewage is discharged in the other direction so as not to pollute the river.

The ditch digging can be started in the near future, and the snow can be drained as soon as possible, and the ground will be dry before the house can be built. Stones are placed on both sides of the ditch to prevent the soil from collapsing in, and digging a little deeper can drain away the water in the hillside land.

It is estimated that he is the only one who can think of drainage problems during this period, otherwise there will be no story of Dayu controlling water in later generations.

"Well, Tsukasa, which place do you think is suitable?"

They have arrived at the place where the trees were stacked before, stretched out their arms, and measured the direction according to the direction of the sun in the sky, that is, to distinguish the east, west, north and south.

But in fact, it is necessary to adapt to local conditions, for example, there is an advantage to facing east, the rising sun can shine in advance, the dew dries quickly, and there is a kind of laziness after opening the door in the morning, and the sun is shining on the buttocks. On the other hand, the biggest advantage of facing west is to dry the grain, and the disadvantage is that it can be very hot in the evening in summer.

In addition, it is also judged according to the direction of the river in front of the house, the surrounding mountains and rivers, etc., which belongs to feng shui.

Su Yang didn't order a dragon's den or something, and he didn't understand it, just relying on that hearsay feng shui knowledge, he couldn't play it, and he didn't believe it much.

He looked at the trees, pointed in the direction to the south, and said, "Build it over there." ”

Holy, so accurate? Su Yang suddenly felt that the way of sitting in the north and facing south really started from the primitive period, and he asked why he chose that direction, and learned that the trees grew densely in that direction, and the opposite direction was relatively loose.

This answer seems to be very scientific, so that Su Yang is speechless, he still remembers that the sense of direction of the ancients can be seen from the Hongmen Banquet, so he also intends to respect this, and build the most important building in the tribe to sit north and face south, so that the sunlight is oblique, not too cold, not too hot.

And the reason why it does not face north is because the north wind is blowing, and at the same time, I believe in the judgment of primitive people, and most of the dwellings are going to sit north and face south.

As for the drying field, it should be facing west, and there should be no shelter in front, so that more grain can be dried. As for him, he prefers the houses facing the east, and when he gets up in the morning, he can see the sunrise and the purple air coming from the east.

Except for the north, the other three directions are no problem, and then the general extent of the foundation is determined, and the original place where the trees were cut down is decided to be used as a threshing field, so the foundation will be retreated, which is also more agreeable to the Kagasa.

The merchant girl said loudly at this time: "I still chose this place." ”

"Yes, yes, you're the best." Su Yang has never been stingy with praise, he just eats by mouth.

After inspecting the terrain, he decided to raise the base, or dig the outside of the building complex lower, and the excavated soil will be used to build houses at that time, and the foundation of the building complex will be built with stones to build a baokan, which means to ensure that the slope does not slip, and it is also conducive to drainage.

There are no more than two kinds of ditches, yang ditch and yin ditch, the current conditions are better to dig yang ditch, so a total, it seems that the early process is really not small.

He also humbly listened to some of the suggestions of the two, and tried to take into account all aspects of the situation, safe, comfortable and beautiful, which is his pursuit.

"Xiabu, come here, what do you think of this place?" Su Yang recruited the big savage over, he was thirsty for talent, since the savage tribe had already entered his eyes, he didn't want to run away.

"River!" Xia Bu pointed in the direction of the river, and he didn't know if he liked the river or didn't understand Su Yang's question.

Well, the communication failed again, and his flickering skills couldn't even be used for half of it. However, the river is really a good place, and there is no need to worry about raising ducks in the future, and he will go fishing if he has nothing to do, crisscrossing the mountains and rivers, and cultivating his sentiments.

"Knock knock!" He asked Prabhu to lead people to drive a wooden stake, formalize the center of the complex, and then continue to explore the surroundings, but he didn't expect luck to blow up, so that he found a pepper tree, a very large tree, but he missed it before the winter for Mao?

If he found peppercorns when he was looking for camellia fruits, he could pick them, if he remembered correctly, the season of pepper picking was in the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it was also around the National Day of later generations, and the peppercorns at that time were basically red, of course, you can also pick green peppers in advance.

"Tragedy, tragedy, Huarong, come over and smell this carefully." He was simply heartbroken, just a little bit of time, and now the peppercorns have all gone. The reason why I recognized the pepper tree is because the thorns on the tree are so conspicuous that you can smell the strong numbness smell when you break off a little branch, which is pleasant.

As a result, Hua Rong covered his nose with his hands and shouted: "It smells bad, it's not good." ”

"You don't know the goods." Su Yang hurriedly asked everyone to do it together, and the rattan wrapped around the pepper tree was removed, and several big trees next to it were also cut down, so as not to block the sun. Perhaps the tree was hidden by dense canes before, so it was not noticed. There is also his problem, he didn't spend more time looking for these good things, and he must not miss them after the beginning of spring.

When the time comes, it will be like mushrooms and fungus, and it will be used, and there are many rotten trees in the forest, and only mushrooms should be able to eat a refreshing meal, but it will take at least half a year.

"Have any of you ever seen a tree like this?" As he spoke, he had already asked everyone to start shaving the snow, hoping to find some peppercorns. Fresh peppercorns can be frozen, frozen directly into ice, which can retain the numb flavor better than sun-dried peppercorns, but if the temperature is not low enough, the soaked peppercorns will become moldy.

He just hopes that there will be a little pepper that has slipped through the net, and if he finds it, he can put it into the soup to ward off the cold, and at the same time make everyone's taste buds explode. As for how to cultivate pepper seedlings, he really doesn't know about this, and he can try to cultivate them with seeds, but if you want to wait until they bloom and bear fruit, I'm afraid it's too late, and it will take several years.

Therefore, this pepper tree is very important, and everything that is found in the future must be protected, and the small ones will be transplanted to the vicinity of the tribe to live a life of eating fragrant and drinking hemp.

"Everyone's attention, look for such a big, red seed, just look for it under the tree."

The hard work paid off, and it didn't take long for someone to pull out the pepper granules, Su Yang laughed and took it, although there were only a dozen, but it was enough to make him excited, and the most important thing was that there was no mold, thanks to the blessing of the ice and snow.
