Chapter 391: Carrying the Burden

"If you join the salt clan, you won't have to worry about eating salt in the future, there are so many caves where people can live, and it's very safe. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "Ya personally lobbied, thinking that there must be no problem, but found that these elders did not speak up.

After a long time, someone said: "Ya, our tribe has joined the Taixu Alliance, Su promised to give us twenty catties of salt, and we can use meat next year." Su would also send us clay pots and more rice seeds. ”

With someone taking the lead, the rest of the elders also spoke out, although they didn't join Taixu, they could also borrow ten catties of salt, anyway, they just had one meaning, they didn't plan to move into the Yan clan at all.

Ya suddenly wanted to ask Su Yang how he did it, why there was a Xiong clan that could integrate so many tribes, but she couldn't even handle one, obviously the rock tribe was pitifully small and poor at the beginning.

And even if Su Yang was present, he could only shake his head, how could it be so simple to fuse, didn't he see Taixu until now, didn't he get rid of Xiaohe and the other five tribes.

It's not difficult to defeat a small tribe, but it's not easy to get others to join in willingly.

Obviously, if she still wants to use salt, she can't achieve her goal.

Eventually, one of the elders told the truth, "Ya, if the tribe migrates, what about us elders?" ”

Ya had learned in advance that Su Yang usually gave one or two elder seats, but she was unwilling to give them, but she couldn't help it.

"Each tribe gives an elder position."

"That's right." The questioner was silent, because there were four elders in her tribe, and it was difficult to guarantee that she would win.

For a long time, the matter of the tribal merger was not discussed, which made Ya very angry, but helpless.

Not only that, but these five tribes actually discussed the matter of joint hunting on their own, hoping to hunt meat as soon as possible, send it to Taixu to pay off the debt, and maybe trade more salt.

After Ya heard about it, she wanted to reduce the price immediately, but the price given by Su Yang was too low.

Aggrieved, she was extremely aggrieved in her heart, and she had nowhere to vent. In the end, he decided to go to the Jianmu tribe first to complete the transaction, and came back to find a way to persuade the other tribes.

"What, nameless?" A few days later, Su Yang had just finished castrating the piglets, and suddenly learned that there was an unnamed alliance in the mountains and forests, which was formed by the union of several small tribes on the side of the Youyan clan, which was equivalent to kicking the Youyan clan with one kick.

Because a good name was not negotiated, and I didn't want to use any tribe as the name, I simply called it a nameless tribe.

Eh, but Su Yang was still struggling with his teacher being unknown before, this is too much of a coincidence, why should he be too vain?

Things seem to have become complicated, it is not a good thing that the Yan clan is isolated, but he doesn't care so much now, he is busy mining river sand, and he will use a lot of it in the future, this thing is tens of yuan a ton in modern times, and only six yuan a ton at the end of the twentieth century.

There is a tattered boat that can be collected, the sand is pumped up from the bottom of the river, washed and filtered, and stacked and sold, basically at no cost, but the transportation cost is higher.

And there are natural sand fields and sand rivers, which are equivalent to digging them out directly and using them, if the requirements are higher, you can use a screen to filter them once.

The other is yellow sand, also called fine sand, which can be found by mining sandstone, or in rivers near the sandstone, and used with lime, the effect is similar.

He was busy selecting a few sand fields, Taixu, Youxiong, and Hill, at least these three places should be used, and the amount was very large.

At the same time, let the tribe rush to make transportation, because the road has not been built, the best choice is a basket, or the open round pocket is also called a dustpan, which is used to pick.

The body structure of men and women is actually different, because women are naturally inferior in strength and are more suitable for carrying baskets; Men are more suitable for carrying burdens, and in comparison, they must carry a large amount of burdens, so the main labor force has to rely on men.

In addition to humans, animals can also be transported, but the body structure of the cow is more suitable for pulling heavy loads than carrying a burden on its back. Horses have not been found for the time being, otherwise horses are a good choice.

In modern times, for this kind of mountain and forest environment, mules are generally used to transport, that is, the offspring of horses and donkeys, if you need to walk the mountain road to climb the slope, a mule can transport about 30 bricks at a time, no more than 40 horses, and it is only 150 to 200 catties in conversion.

And you must rest halfway, pull goods without riding, and riders without pulling goods, otherwise the mule will be tired to death.

It seems that the weight bearing capacity of mules is not strong, but with the shoulder bearing capacity of modern humans, it is generally 70 to 150 catties, and most people are only 70 or 80 catties, which means that they can carry the burden for a long distance. If you never do physical work, pick a seventy pound of grain, your legs will definitely tremble, and if you don't pay attention to it, you may flash your waist.

Primitive people are okay, their weight-bearing capacity is equivalent to that of modern mules, and there are even a few outstanding ones with amazing strength.

But it is not possible to always use manpower to transport, in the absence of roads, and in the face of the complex environment of mountains and forests, coupled with the beasts that can be found in this area, mammoths have become the best choice again, and he dare not say that he can transport a ton of goods at a time, he feels reliable. The most important thing is that the mammoth can be transported long distances with a load, and it should be no problem to walk for two hours at a time.

Wiping his saliva, the mammoth army has no energy to build for the time being, for the sake of now, the only way to do a good job is to do a good job of logistics, so that the clansmen can be fed, and the nutrition must keep up.

After ten days of busyness, three battlefields were established, he stayed in Baispear for a few days to plant, and checked the growth of the seedlings, not bad, this year is a good weather, I hope there will be a good harvest, God, I praise you.

In addition to seedlings, the tribe now grows soybeans, konjac, radish, okra, leeks, yams, nameless tubers, gourds, and some wild vegetables. It's not rich, but it's already very good in comparison.

In addition, there are bamboo, walnut, paulownnia, camellia, hemp, white gum, palm tree, chestnut, pepper, ginkgo and other plants with economic value.

Of course, some of them can't be named, but he forcibly puts modern names on similar crops that fit his perception.

The current seed reserves and farming experience are not enough to feed so many people by planting, but one thing is that even if it is to save more seeds, you should spend time and energy on farming.

Since this primitive period, he has changed his picky eater, as long as he can eat, it is a blessing.

The Baimao Hill has a wide area and good sunlight, which is very suitable for land reclamation, and the planting center will be moved here in the future, but there may be problems with the water source, and flood and drought prevention must be considered.

ditches for flood control, construction of scientific drainage ditches; To prevent drought, dikes can be built upstream. As for cold protection, there is no way to do this, depending on whether God appreciates food.

Why did Su Yang suddenly feel that the tribe had developed and become stronger, but there were more things?

No, the talent reserve is very important, if you rely on him for everything, it is easy to burn your brain. (To be continued.) )
