Chapter 491: Mining Strip Stone

Subsequently, he also helped to harvest, and the stacks of rice seedlings were really gratifying, and the full ears of rice made the season happy. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

There was a bit of depression in the tribe, but as thousands of people moved in, rice piled up, and it immediately became popular.

Early the next morning, the clansmen went down to the field one after another to continue harvesting, and the three of them had no pressure on two acres of land a day, and they could be harvested tomorrow at the latest, and they would be sent to Taixu the day after tomorrow.

Inevitably, the yield here is lower than in the hills, which has a lot to do with the sunny climate.

But compared to last year, there has been a big improvement, if there is a chance, he may find a way to breed hybrid rice, this relies on pure technology to eat, every year to cultivate seeds, the enemy can't take it.

Two days later, Jianmu's people never entered the mountain forest, but only circled around the side and occupied the Youyan clan.

Their rice had already been harvested, and they originally planned to transport only the ears of rice, but since Jianmu did not come, they simply took the straw with them, which was a treasure, and the value was higher than that of the reeds.

Reeds are better than straw in that they can be woven mats, and if they come into direct contact with the skin, they are prone to itching.

In addition, the straw is too useful to be thrown away, so it is all taken away.

For this reason, a group of people were urgently transferred over, which lasted a day and a half, and returned to Taixu without danger.

"It's going so well, it's like God's help." Su Yang is a little confused, could it be that he has persecution and is prone to imaginary enemies?

So far, in addition to Youchao, there are dozens of people who have not come, taking care of the millet and waiting for the harvest.

The rest of the people have all gathered in the Taixu tribe, nearly 4,200 people, and the number of people in the entire mountain forest was not so many at the beginning.

And now, in addition to Taixu, those small tribes in the mountains and forests add up to more than a thousand people.

Taixu fused more than eight hundred people from the hills, one or two hundred people he brought back from outside, people from the Chao clan, and more than a hundred scattered people.

If the unification of the mountains and forests can be completed and the 5,000 mark can be properly broken, this is a critical point, because when so many people gather together, just hunting near the tribe, it is impossible to feed so many people.

And with the overpopulation, the difficulty of management will also increase greatly, and if you can't keep up with medical care, housing, etc., there will be problems.

Fortunately, there are people in Taixu who have food, and he himself is in charge.

He reassigned the warriors and formed three hunter-gatherer teams, which took turns to go out in search of food, just as they had done in the Youxiong clan.

Although he knew that Jianmu was on the edge of the mountain forest, he couldn't just leave Jianmu, so he didn't do anything here.

This day still has to be passed, take precautions, counting the wounded soldiers, and the hundred people brought by the merchant girl, as well as those who are fixed to defend the city, it is no problem to make up a thousand and a half.

Every time you go out, there are at least four hundred warriors, plus one or two hundred gathering teams, you can hunt completely, and even if you encounter a sudden attack by Jianmu, you can get away.

In addition, he limited the scope of his activities to the opposite direction, that is, Xiaohe and Youxiong's side, and scouts were sent every day, and it was impossible for Jianmu's large army to come quietly.

"Witch, you prepare, tell me in two days how to sacrifice totems, what things are needed, it's too late, too void and need totems."

"I will." The shrine maiden had been preparing for the long time, thinking that there would be no problem before winter.

After receiving the confirmation, Su Yang continued to arm, did his best, and carried out a second construction of the tribe, building a stone retaining wall.

Instead of widening and reinforcing the city walls, it is a place to go up the hill to create the last line of defense, and at the same time to familiarize the people with this kind of stone wall.

The whole amount of work is not very large, but once it is completed, the enemy who comes ten times will not be able to attack the mountain.

Just do it, it took half a day to complete the measurement, there is only one way to go up the mountain, the mountain is high and the road is steep, only need to build a retaining wall about 200 meters long, the height is directly erected to 15 meters, which is almost the height of a modern five-story building.

Nearly 1,000 square meters of stone will be used, and according to his specifications, about 3,000 pieces of stone will be needed, and if the number is reduced, the number will be doubled.

If 1,000 people dig the stone at the same time, it can be done in two days.

But it's not realistic at all, not to mention that there are not so many tools, the right place, the key is that there are no mature stonemasons.

The excavation of the stone is made by the opening cracking method, like the macadamia nut, which first makes a hole in the shell, and then inserts it with a small tool, and the shell is cut in half with such a force.

The stone is like this, first draw a good line, every ten centimeters to punch a thick chisel into it, and then use the front segmentation, the side punching, equivalent to the seven sides of the cuboid cracking, and finally pry hard, so that the other five sides of the collapse, the stone will roll down.

Therefore, it is best to choose a relatively square place where the front and sides are exposed to the air for artificial mining.

Fortunately, this kind of place exists on the Xushan Mountain, that is, he took local materials, but moved the stone mining on the mountain to the foot of the mountain.

Su Yang decided to take turns to invest more than 200 people, and only asked for 50 square stones every day, which could be done in 20 days.

Divide these people into groups of sixty or seventy, and the necessary tools can be scraped together, whether they are hammers and chisels, and thick bronze rods for prying stone, which can be used in turn.

At the same time, dozens of captives of the blood wolf were also used, and coolies were used to mine stone.

After a day, the mining team was pulled up, and with the addition of prisoners, nearly three hundred people were invested.

At the beginning, everyone didn't know what to do, Su Yang had to go on the field in person, thinking about his determination to be the emperor, which is farming, breeding, being a witch, leading soldiers to fight, cooking, and repairing houses...... Now even the stonemasons are done.

In modern times, this kind of rough stone, in fact, is very cheap, dozens of dollars a side, if it is a single person pure manual mining, a month, can mine 30 square stones is good, calculated, it is more than 2,000 yuan, there is really no future.

Those who make bricks and break stones are purely coolies, earn little, and are tired like dogs.

"Look at it." Su Yang first took a small chisel, pestled it on the surface of the rock, picked up the hammer with one hand, and hit it with a bang.

Good guy, Rao is his arm strength is amazing, but he also feels uncomfortable, physically speaking, the effect of force is mutual, and the force of the shock cannot be carried by it.

When a pit is dug, it is inserted into a large one, and it is replaced by a two-handed hammer to slam into it, and the gravel is dug out while knocking, and the depth is enough to be about ten centimeters.

Then he loosened the chisel and took it out, and continued in another position, sweating profusely, which lasted nearly an hour, and stopped twice to rest in the middle of the way, before he pried off a large stone.

This stone is about one-third of the square, weighing about 700 catties, that is to say, the arranged clansmen, three or four people in each group, only need to mine three stones of this kind of regular material every two days to meet his expectations.

"Do you see everything, now let you do it yourself." He gasped first, feeling that the muscles in his body were stiff, and he seemed to be able to exercise his body.

ps: The next chapter will be more tomorrow, and I'm a little busy at the end of the year. After writing this big plot, Su Wu should be an adult. (To be continued.) )
