Chapter 101: Messy Things

Paper is the crystallization of the long-term experience and wisdom of the ancient Chinese working people, and an outstanding invention in the history of human civilization. At the same time www.biquge.info it is also one of the four great inventions of China.

Although Wang Hao had not been in contact with papermaking before the crossing, he had a certain understanding of papermaking to some extent.

The principle of papermaking is simple, it is divided into just four steps.

The first step is to degum the raw materials that can be used to make paper, such as hemp stalks and bark, by soaking or steaming, and disperse them into fibrous forms, which is similar to the way Wang Hao used to make fishing nets from hemp fibers.

The second step is to cut or pound the fibers and broom the fibers into pulp.

The third step is to add water to these processed materials, and then make a slurry, and use a mat made of bamboo strips to scoop the pulp, so that the pulp is interwoven into a thin sheet of wet paper on the paper grager.

The last step, when the pulp is dry, peel off the paper on it, then a piece of paper is considered to be successful.

Wang Hao decided that the rest of the things could be delayed first, but the pen and paper had to be put on first.

It is foreseeable that the tribe will have more and more foreign populations and more and more supplies. Chaos is bound to ensue.

The limitations of the bark and slate are very large, and they can only store a small amount of information for a short time, if they only rely on these two things to remember, I am afraid that Wang Hao will be annoyed to death in the future.

Not to mention anything else, just this time, plus the people of Zhao Village, seventy or eighty people came to Wang Village at once, if they only relied on bark and slates, how many truckloads of bark and slate would it take to remember the number of times they went to work and the items they had to exchange.

People's memory is limited, and things that are too old or too complicated will have a vague impression or even completely forgotten.

If you don't write it, you say that a worker has two days of foot injury and only 28 days of work in a month, but he says that he has been working for a full month, what should you do?

Now that they have just come to Wang Village, they are still at a new point, and after a long time, all kinds of contradictions will inevitably erupt. Therefore, a large amount of data needs to be recorded, and when there is a contradiction, use the data to speak.

Meals need to be eaten in one bite, and the road needs to be walked step by step. I can't wait to get the paper out there, but I still need to solve the problem at the moment.

A clansman found Wang Hao and told him that the cleaned hemp fibers had been tied into bunches according to his instructions, and the three-thatched hut was full of them.

Wang Hao, the spinning car used for spinning, has already been selected, but he has not let the system make it for the time being.

The narrow and dark thatched house is okay if you want to live in it, but if you want to put a huge wooden spinning cart inside, you have to burst the thatched house.

The only brick house has basically become a special storage warehouse for the eight-ox crossbow, and if you want to spin hemp in it, the space is completely insufficient.

Before leaving, Wang Hao, the foundation of the two rows of factories, had already taken Gu Mu to plan it out, but in the past few days, the clansmen who stayed in the village not only needed to fish and store food, but also needed to dig a brick kiln to burn bricks, and had to burn a batch of pottery pots and bowls for future exchanges, so they really couldn't spare too much time to build a factory, plus yesterday's attack by the wild boar king, which dragged down the progress of the village's work, so the foundation people only dug half. And the factory building, so far not even a prototype has been revealed.

While walking towards the place where the hemp bundle was stored, while thinking about the next work arrangement, Wang Hao found that the time was still too tight.

Seeing that the summer flood is coming, the fishing net must be done before the summer flood, otherwise there will be only one opportunity for fishing this year, and in the second half of the year, the food will inevitably be very tight.

Moreover, the production of paper and pen must be put on the agenda, and the workers' work records can not really be recorded only with the bark, you know, the bark is okay to record things for a short time, and after a month or two, the bark containing water is easy to rot.

Also, the sweet fruits that can be seen everywhere in the great wilderness are ripe, and before the heavy rain falls, Wang Hao must lead people to pick all the sweet fruits nearby, otherwise, during the summer flood, all the sweet fruits that have not been picked will rot on the branches.

Picking sweet fruits is not just for food, the main thing is that Wang Hao wants to make a batch of fruit wine. When he came to the Great Wilderness, Wang Hao could tolerate no snacks or drinks, but the only thing that made him unbearable was that there was no tobacco or alcohol in this place.

Wang Hao has been staring at this batch of sweet fruits for more than a month, and if he misses it this year, he will only be able to drink it next year.

Everything is very important, and Wang Hao, who has a lot of clues, can't sort it out at all. Just when he was irritable, several people personally stopped in front of Wang Hao. Among them, there are two people from Wang Village and five new people from other villages.

Digging the foundation is very easy to get started, as long as you have the strength to tell them how to do it, you can ensure that there will be no mistakes, not to mention that there are already skilled Wang Cun people next to you to follow the guidance.

The rest of the things can't be handed over to these people from other villages for the time being, so when he first returned to the village, after taking them around the brick house for a while, Wang Hao asked the clansmen to take them to dig the foundation.

It's hard work on the earth, but it's really easy for the people of the Great Wilderness. If it weren't for the limited number of shovels, each of them could have two shovels per person, open bows left and right, and turn into human excavators.

After lunch, while the rain has not yet fallen, Wang Da took these people to dig the foundation, if the two long factories can be built before the rain, then Wang Hao's worries about these things will be solved.

"What's the matter?" Wang Hao looked at the red-faced and very excited person from the village in front of him, and asked strangely. Although the work of digging ditches and transporting soil is a little dirty, it is not very tiring for the people of the Great Wilderness, and on the first day of this first day, everyone should be more restrained, how can there be conflicts.

"Hao, we have to ask for an explanation for this matter today, you said that we will definitely not be bullied when we come, now you see!" The outsider angrily pointed to a whip mark on his arm and said to Wang Hao.

"What's going on?" Wang Hao frowned and looked at the two clansmen who came with him and asked. Wang Hao's special status in the village naturally created his momentum of not being angry and arrogant.

Usually, let alone ordinary clansmen, even Wang Hu, who has the best relationship with Wang Hao, once he does something wrong, he doesn't dare to look at Wang Hao.

Who knows, these two clansmen today can actually face Wang Hao's gaze.

"Hao, they did something wrong! They didn't go to the toilet, they just in the village and I got caught. You said at the beginning that anyone over the age of eight who dared to in the village would be whipped twice if they were caught. The clansman said confidently.

Wang Hao thought about it, and found that he did seem to have said such a thing, there were only two reasons for doing this, the first was to keep the place where he lived to have a clean environment, after all, no one likes to live in a stinky place every day, the cave where he lived at the beginning, the most unbearable thing for Wang Hao was the smell of the clansmen's open defecation.

Second, when the seeds of various edible crops are ripe in autumn, Wang Hao will definitely collect all kinds of fruits that can be grown and edible vegetables to cultivate, and these manures will be the best fertilizer for the coming year.

Moreover, the main target of this regulation was those prisoners, and their own people were very obedient, and few people defecated in the village under mutual supervision.
