Chapter 16 The foundation of the family house

It took three days to make all the preparations, reserve the materials, and roughly calculate the bricks needed to build this big house, which will take one month to burn at the current rate, and at the same time need to burn the tiles needed for the roof. After the completion of the main house of the Pen, Fun and Pavilion www.biquge.info, it is necessary to burn the houses inhabited by ordinary people, and the number of needs is even larger. Therefore, the demand for large-scale brick kilns is imminent, and after three days of work, many tools are not as sharp as before. And in addition to fish, Yao Ran's reserve of beef is no longer available.

Arrange for Yao Shi to lead eight people to the place where the bison were hunted before to find animals that can be hunted, and continue to hunt in the way that it is best to catch them alive. Then Yao Ran led the women and children and the men who did not follow Yao Hemu to cut down the trees, and began to lay load-bearing pillars at home. At the beginning, the middle ridge has to be load-bearing, and it is also the highest column, which is more than 8 meters high, and the scaffolding can barely be smashed after three layers. Every time the load-bearing column is fixed, it is spliced after two load-bearing columns and a beam are connected to the card slot and fixed. Two load-bearing columns go down to the foundation at the same time, and three ropes are tied to the upward end of each weighing, and five people pull a rope for each rope. Finally, he began to throw piles into the holes he had made, and stood on the scaffolding with a sledgehammer and a large stone hammer with a thick wooden handle. On each scaffold stood two men, each holding a large stone hammer. One person and one hammer began to hammer the top of the entire log, and with the continuous blows of force. Inch by inch, the logs entered the holes in the foundation. Yao Ran took a ladder made of bamboo bundles and set it up, in the center of the beam, took the horizontal bowl and placed it, and began to measure the levelness on the beam of the two bamboos, "Hammer down ten times on the left...... Good! …… Hammer twice on the right! …… Good! Fix the rope. Remove a layer of scaffolding. ”

The highest load-bearing column in the middle, because it also needs to connect the two columns, is the thickest and tallest. Therefore, after fixing, it should be fixed in the middle position according to the opening of the beams on both sides. Therefore, the load-bearing columns on both sides are first lowered and then opened through the beams. Yao Ran also wants to build villas and castles, but the current materials, technology and tools are not allowed, so Yao Ran is still a little dissatisfied with being able to build such a brick house across the ages.

When it was almost time for dinner, the hunting party and the tree cutters came back and saw those tall wooden shelves, unaware of them, not knowing what they could do, Yao Shi ran to the thick spine of the house and patted left and right. looked at Yao Ran's gaze with more and more admiration.

During the day, the rest of the people were digging mud and detaining soil by the river, and some people built a huge brick-burning cave more than 50 meters long at the foot of the mountain near the stream, according to Yao Ran's request. When the bricks were made, Yao Hemu's eldest son also dug out a piece of semi-naked jadeite, this jadeite is green all over, and it is a treasure to see clearly from the bare place, but it is a pity that it is so hard in this primitive society. It is more suitable for making a chisel or drill. Because it's so small, it's only the size of a fist. Yao Ran rewarded the child with five bamboo sticks and asked him to send them back to Xiaoshu, who was first startled, and then blossomed.

Yao Ran was very impressed by this woman, the first time she watched primitive people up close, she was afraid that she would be defeated, and the root cause was because she wanted to share a little more food, greed is the nature of human beings. There's nothing wrong with that. It's a bit unruly, but it's clear-headed. You can also try to cultivate it, maybe you can take charge of it on your own.

After dinner, the literacy course continued, and today I taught everyone the same mathematics, but after a day's thoughts, Yao Ran was ready to popularize applied mathematics! The sun rises and the moon sets for a day, the sun for a day, and the sun for a night. Everyone listened very carefully, Yao Ran didn't know if this was the earth. So there is no set of concepts of the lunar calendar and hours, minutes and seconds coming in. So in the end, Yao Ran could only simply divide the day into sunrise, noon, sunset, and midnight. Tonight the slate was full of people, and almost the whole village came. Someone asked, "The patriarch came from the place where the sun rises, so what does the sun look like?" "The sun, the sun is actually a big fireball. It is countless times larger than the earth beneath our feet. It's like the difference between this stone and me. I am as small as the sun and the earth under our feet is as small as this stone, and he is far, far away from us. But there are no stars far away from us, and the stars we see at night are the sun farther away from us. The earth beneath our feet is a ball. It's like this emerald stone in my hand. And our tiny ones are like the dust on a stone. ”

Yao Shi asked in confusion: "Then don't we fall down if we go down?" ”

"Do you see the moon above you? The ball at our feet attracts it to circle around us on the outside of our ball. And we revolve around the sun. That's why I can see the sun rise and set and we ourselves are turning, and these are too advanced for you to learn yet. If you learn all my knowledge, you will understand these mysteries. Of course, there are many more secrets waiting for you. There is no end to learning, and knowledge is vast. ……”

The course lasted until midnight, and it was not cold, and most of the tribesmen slept on the floor around the campfire, and some of them left to go back to their homes.

Early in the morning, the clansmen outside the entrance of the cave were snoring horizontally, although they did not look good, but with them, there was the cross-era building. With them, Yao Ran can have a safe life. Yao Ran deeply realized that water can carry boats. The same is true for so many people, offering themselves to provide them with a better life, if one day they turn their backs on themselves. That was the moment when the boat was overturned.

But Yao Ran himself didn't know that the various miracles he had created and the knowledge he explained to everyone made the uncivilized human beings feel deeply shocked. The word "patriarch" is a title in their eyes, and after these few days of collective life. The patriarch became synonymous with the wise, the leader, and the commander. Yao Ran's status is constantly accumulating in his own seemingly simple work. His image is constantly taller and taller in the teaching of puzzles again and again, and the legendary IQ is suppressed.

Xiaoyu took a few women to work by the stove by the stream early, and the children who got up early were mowing the grass not far away, and the animal fence was half completed, and it was almost time to fix and complete all the fences. So last night the bison had already been driven into the barn. The bison in the barn were not tied to the ropes in their nostrils. Just wander around in the pens.

Yao Ran began to look at the blueprints of the family house on the walls of the cave, preparing for today's construction work. As a standard otaku, Yao Ran has a skill that he didn't expect to use in his own travel career, that is, to make models, Yao Ran is proficient in the production of ship models, model airplanes, and model cars, but most of them are semi-finished products bought on Taobao, and he has never played with his own model. Common techniques such as plugging and splicing are used in model players, but the most direct and effective bonding is not materialized. Yao Ran crossed his arms and looked at the drawings. After a while, he slowly walked out of the cave, and there were a group of overseers standing at the door. Including Xiaoyu, Yao Ran thought for a while and said: Today we have entered the state of comprehensive housing construction, Yao Shi is the deputy commander, and Quancheng will assist me in completing the housing construction work. Xiaoyu is responsible for supervising the brick burning work. In addition, Yao Hemu's wife and son Xiaoshu offered a piece of stone jade, and he was specially given the surname "Qian" and named Qian Shu. Responsible for assisting in light rain billeting, brick burning, brick transportation and other corresponding work. Yao Hemu is responsible for timber cutting and transportation. Yao Shi's wife, Dajiao, has a credit to the family, and is specially given the surname Zhao and the name Jiao. Zhao Jiao is responsible for life logistics, collecting forage, firewood, wild fruits, fishing, etc. Yao bones. Responsible for the replenishment of the animal fence. Yao Huo was promoted to a scholar, assisted me in completing the record-keeping work, and informed those who had not yet arrived to come to see me. Let's go their separate ways and work together! ~”

Qian Shu, Zhao Jiao, Yao Huo, and the three of them soon came to Yao Ran. Yao Ran encouraged a few words, saying that they had a great responsibility and would get more family bamboo sticks. Especially when the first two heard that they could get more bamboo sticks, it is not an exaggeration to say that their eyes are shining. Yao Huo was excited, because he felt that he could learn more calculations with Yao Ran, and he was also very majestic. The desire for power is one of human nature. After the two women left, Yao Ran also packed up his tools and went to the construction site uphill and down the hill to prepare to continue building the house.

Yesterday, the framework of the main hall has been erected, and the side halls on the left and right sides and the back house behind the hall also need to rely on the main hall to continue to build the framework. The frame of the side hall is relatively easy to fit. Four scaffolds work at the same time. The load-bearing pillar that should be the main hall has been made by Yao Ran, and as long as it is smashed to the corresponding position and passed through the beam, it will be completed. Some people use Yao Ran's level to correspond to the position of the beam, and the people on the scaffold are not in a hurry to adjust the distance to the final complete level, and correspond to the corresponding holes, pass through the main load-bearing house, and fix the beams with wooden wedges. By the time of the morning, the three halls had been basically completed. The back house is still in the midst of intense work, and the front hall people have stopped working after completion. A group of children and women began to move the burnt masonry into the foundation. Bamboo mats pull the masonry and pour it into the foundation. At the four corners, the eight corners of the main hall and the side hall began to build brick walls at the same time, and the four brick-thick walls looked extremely strong, and each brick was about 30 centimeters. The surface of the fire-burned clay is relatively smooth and flat. The shape of the bricks is uniform and easy to stack. Everyone has eaten and changed what they haven't eaten. Non-stop work to make progress surprisingly fast. Just after noon, the main hall had already completed the construction of the back wall.

The purpose of building the back wall first is to allow the wet mud that smooths out the gaps when the brick wall is stacked to dry as quickly as possible. In order not to become damp and breed bacteria, the work process was all arranged by Yao Ran in the entire construction process, and Yao Ran proudly explained to the little scholars who followed him. At the current pace. The bricks in the large brick kiln could not keep up with the progress of use, and another brick kiln was built to complete the mansion as soon as possible.
