Chapter 569: The Monkeys Attracted by Sweet Fruit

Because the construction of Hwaseong is the top priority, Wang Hao has to check the progress every few days. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Although the working hours of the bricklayers have increased, to Wang Hao's surprise, their work efficiency has not improved much.

Wang Hao, who was curious, made a special inspection and found that it was not that the clansmen were lazy, but that the supply of bricks, cement and black iron and wood could not keep up.

Of course, this is not to say that Hwaseong is short of raw materials.

After a winter of storage, the raw materials from all sides of Hwaseong were transported to Hwaseong, and the cement was placed in the hidden army pavilion reserved in the city wall, while the bricks and black iron and wood strips were placed in the open air.

The main reason for the shortage of raw materials is that the city walls are getting higher and higher, and the stairs up the city walls can only be walked by four people side by side.

As a result, bricks had to be transported to the city walls, and cement had to be transported to the walls, which led to a stagnation in the transportation of raw materials.

This situation does not mean that the number of savages can be solved. After all, there are only so many staircase passages reserved, and they can't use them if they are too numerous.

Of course, after the matter was discovered, Wang Hao also tried to let the wild men use ropes and bamboo baskets to pull up the raw materials for building the city from the edge of the city wall, but when two wild men fell from the edge of the city wall in one morning, and the efficiency did not improve much, Wang Hao gave up this method.

Later, Wang Hao also thought of using a hook and lock, that is, to use a strong rope diagonally from the top of the city wall to connect to the bottom.

There are hooks and loops under the rope, and both sides are fastened.

After loading the bricks with a large bamboo basket or something like that, a dozen savages pulled the hook and loop with a rope on it, and then the hook hook hooked the bamboo basket and was pulled up along the rope.

But in this way, the defects are also obvious.

It's easy to say that the hook is locked underneath, but when it comes to the top of the city wall, it's very difficult to fix.

If it is not fixed, it is difficult to bear the huge weight, but if you want to fix it, it will take two days for the cement to solidify the black ironwood column.

And because the city wall of Hwaseong is constantly increasing in high schools, this kind of hook lock basically has to move a position every two weeks, so that the time is greatly delayed.

In the end, in desperation, Wang Hao had to find a solution in the system.

Not to mention, after some careful searching, Wang Hao really found a solution.

From the system space, Wang Hao searched for a wooden crane.

The round winch at the bottom has a diameter of 30 meters, a lifting height of 40 meters, and a maximum weight of 3 tons.

Such a huge winch, even in the Great Wilderness, requires sixty people to twist it.

For the conversion of power, it is more than half lower than the winch of iron pulley.

But fortunately, Wang Hao has no shortage of savages who work hard, let alone sixty people, as long as he can improve work efficiency, even if it is six hundred, he can afford it.

Of course, it is impossible for an ordinary wooden winch crane to lift something weighing three tons, even if it is capable of lifting something to a height of 40 meters.

The reason why the function can reach such an amazing level is mainly because the material of black ironwood and spider silk rope is very good, and it has been systematically tested to be raised to this height.

After this matter was resolved, the spring plowing in Hwaseong had already begun completely.

Although it is still a little cold in the middle of March, the seedlings of sweet potatoes need to be raised one or two months in advance.

The sudden increase in population has put a lot of pressure on Hwaseong's food supply.

Although this pressure has been resolved, Hwaseong decided to save food in order to face a possible crisis.

Wang Hao has set the tone for this year.

Because the growth cycle of sweet potatoes is fast, if it is compact, according to the fertility of the wild land, it is still very easy to have two crops a year.

Therefore, this year's staple food will be sweet potatoes mixed with salted fish.

As for wheat, corn, which can be stored for a long time, will be stored in case of emergency.

As for the fish, when the sweet fruit is harvested, it will naturally be brought by the river.

The sweet fruit trees that were transplanted outside Hwaseong last year are finally harvesting this year.

The ten-mile-long sweet fruit grove is nothing compared to the 200,000 population of Hwaseong.

But in winter, the whole world is frozen and snowy, but this sweet fruit forest blooms with brilliant pink flowers, which is really pleasing to the eye.

The sweet fruit tree is a peculiar plant that blooms in winter, then bears fruit, and in spring, the fruit ripens, bringing a delicious taste of the beginning of the year to the great wilderness.

Wang Hao believes that in ten or twenty years, when Huacheng is prosperous and stable, this ten-mile-long sweet fruit forest will become the most gorgeous scenery in the entire Huacheng in winter.

In an environment rich in natural products such as the Great Wilderness, the main reason why the human race starves is that there are too many wild beasts.

There are no sharp swords, only ordinary wooden sticks and stone axes, and under the limitation of numbers, the Terrans who cannot unite as one cannot be bullied, and it is surprising that they are not bullied.

When the sweet fruit is ripe, a dense group of monkeys appears on the edge of the Black Forest.

Because of the construction of Hwaseong, the Black Forest is close to Hwaseong, except for those super giant trees with a diameter of seven or eight meters thick, the rest of the small trees have been cut down, and the entire edge of the forest has shrunk by nearly a thousand meters.

Now, the monkeys that were attracted by the sweet fruit directly occupied all the trees near the sweet fruit forest.

A day earlier, the monkeys had tried to storm the Sweet Fruit Grove.

It's just that, after being scared back by a few black crystal bombs, they did not retreat to the Black Forest, and confronted the Black Armor Army at the edge of the forest.

When the monkeys were shot down by hundreds of corpses with bows and arrows, they also knew the power of the Black Armor Army, and the Black Armor Army, who no longer dared to rely on, was too close.

If the Black Armor Army enters the forest, the monkey group in that area will retreat from where the Black Armor Army enters from.

After the Black Armor is gone, the monkeys will return.

These monkeys are different from last year's wild boars.

Although the destructive ability of individual wild boars far exceeds that of these clawed monkeys, they live on land, and once discovered by the Black Armor Army, they don't even have a place to run with the help of the giant clawed dragon.

Hwaseong's reinforced bow and huge metal arrows could pierce their hearts with just one arrow.

But these monkeys are different.

Not only are they numerous, but they also know how to use roundabout tactics.

When the Black Armor Army comes, they run, and when the Black Armor Army leaves, they come again. It's impossible for the Black Armor Army to live in the Black Forest all the time, after all, the Black Armor still needs to take off the Black Armor to eat and.

In this way, between coming and going, the color of the sweet fruit is getting darker and darker.

It seems that this boundless group of monkeys, which may have tens of thousands of monkeys, is obviously going to be consumed with Hwaseong.

It is impossible to send large numbers of clansmen into the Black Forest to disperse them.

Because of the sheer numerical superiority, these monkeys are able to climb trees and attack from all directions.

Wang Hao had seen with his own eyes that the monkeys tore a passing wild boar to pieces in just a dozen seconds.

If it weren't for the protection of the black armor, rashly sending people into the forest to sweep would definitely cause huge casualties.

As the ripening date of the sweet fruit draws closer, the cry of the monkeys grows more and more terrible every night.

Whether it is Wang Hao or the monkeys, they all understand very well that when the sweet fruit is completely ripe, it will be the time for Huacheng and the monkeys to fight completely.
