Today, the Lumberjack finally received fifteen finished saws from the blacksmith today, and Captain Croft has a unique sense of pride for him today. Thinking that he had a wife and three children to support at home, he was particularly attentive to this job.

After leading his team into the depths of the forest, the lowest place to see was a large tree about seven meters high and one meter wide. Usually, if you want to knock down such a large tree, it takes at least ten or even dozens of minutes to chop down. So Croft is still worried about whether his team will be able to complete the required amount of felling before sunset.

He lowered his head and looked at the newly collared tool in his hand, a uniquely shaped and never-before-seen logging tool that was rumored to have been designed by the king himself. Unlike the knives and axes used in previous deforestation, the special double handle is stubby and easy to hold, and the concave and convex handle is ideal for holding vigorously and pulling back the saw.

Look at the sharp serrations of the blade, which gnaw at anyone like a demon's mouth, and will definitely pull off a large piece of flesh. Croft felt a little intimidated just by looking at it. However, can such a serrated blade really make it easier to cut down trees?

As a small person born hundreds of years after the Common Era, he naturally did not know this saw, which did not appear until the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries A.D., and played a key role in the revolutionary and key role of human logging. Don't look at its potholed shape, but once you get started, the speed of cutting trees is slowly rising! And most importantly, compared to the bulky wielding axe, the tandem saw tool is lightweight and easy to carry, and it is easy to exert force and save the body.

"Hey! Brothers get to work! No matter how strange the guy in his hand is, in short, I can't be sorry for the king's expectations for everyone."

Croft said hello to a few of his nearby brothers, and it was time to get to work. The men smiled and waved to the captain, and then each found a large tree and began to cut down the wood.

Croft also found a companion, and then the two of them looked left and right, and finally locked on a large tree about half a meter in diameter. They followed the method of using the tandem saw that Tianxiang told everyone when they gathered together. First, the saw was measured at 75 degrees and obliquely pointed at the trunk, then one hand grasped the handle and the other hand held the trunk.

Hold it sideways because it is most straining down in accordance with the ergonomics. Croft: To be honest, it's actually useless for this tool. He just numbly followed the king's instructions, prepared himself in advance, and then began to pull the saw slowly.

Kela ......

At first, it was very awkward and uncomfortable, as if my teeth had been jumped by something hard and could not be embedded in the trees. Croft and his companions were stunned, and then remembered that Char had said that this was normal. Spit and foam, Croft began to push down again without believing evil, and immediately pulled back after pushing!

In this way, the "Kerakala Khala Lala......" will be easier and easier the further it goes, and the easier it will be. In the end, Croft found out that he was simply a god! I often get tired like a dog when I cut down a one-meter-wide tree, but now I have sawed two-thirds of the trunk of a tree that is about the same thickness of more than one meter in six or seven minutes!

"The tree is down!!"

Croft shouted excitedly and uncontrollably. With a "boom", the seven-meter-high tree fell in response, and many branches next to it were broken.

Croft laughed, looking at the fallen tree like he saw his daughter-in-law stripped naked. Lift your pants, pick up the saw and rush forward. All the branches of this big tree are sawn off and collected as firewood! The trunk itself is completely smoothed and peeled, and then used as a raw material for making houses and wooden walls!

At the same time, the same situation and the same exclamations mixed with shouts of surprise were echoing all over the forest. Many of the lumberjacks who used the double saw were surprised to find that the tools given to them by the king were like a godsend, and while their enthusiasm for their work was greatly increased, they were even more in awe of the king in their hearts!

After a while, staying in the village, watching the surprised shouts of workers and the sound of falling trees from time to time in the forest below, Tianxiang's expressionless face finally showed a smile.

Well, the original process of making this saw was the era when iron crafts were mature in the fifteenth century. I was worried that the ironmaking process of this era would not be able to keep up with the saw, so that the saw could not play its original work efficiency, but now it seems that I should be too careful.

"Hehe, the old blacksmith's craftsmanship is really good. It seems that next month's shipment should be worth the same time. ”

Tianxiang touched his chin and thought so.

"King! King, please pay attention!! “

Just as Tianxiang was contented to listen to the sound of the falling trees over there, the somewhat panicked and even sharp exclamation of "Ni" suddenly sounded in his ears.

When I looked back, it turned out that Ni was there dragging a thick rope with both hands, and her face was red with all her strength. At the other end of the rope is a thick, processed log.

“――！！“

During this week, Tianxiang first led the people to dig the foundation, and tossed shovels of dirt in the dirt from morning to afternoon. Until dusk, the figure of people sweating on the construction site continued. As a result of their hard work, the first wall is two-thirds complete.

During this period, all the men, women and children of the village were mobilized, except for the hunting troops, who were responsible for providing resources, and the steelmaking troops, who were responsible for providing logistical support, all the old people and children, including women and the remaining ten serfs, were involved in the new construction of the village.

Although the hunting unit can bring back a lot of game every day under the guidance of five old hunters, it is usually stored well until the next day. Basically, I went out hunting on the first day, and I ate it all early the next morning.

It is no wonder that almost all the hundreds of people in the village have devoted themselves to the construction of the new village this week, and they are cutting wood, bulldozing, and processing, and the whole village is in full swing. Naturally, the amount of food needed has also increased greatly, so it has become more difficult for the hunting team to survive.

Although the village still has a distribution policy, giving priority to the men in food, the medium portion to the women, and a small amount to the elderly and children. But no one is going to complain about anything at this time, and they are even grateful for it!

You must know that in this era, all the territories belong to the local lords, whether it is men and women, their bodies or life and death, they are all in the thoughts of the local lords, and it is not surprising that almost all the lords are extremely stingy and even harsh, they only care about their own wallets and interests regardless of the life and death of the residents, and they seem to be so greedy under the **naked**.

And people like Han Tianxiang are not only willing to share a qiē here with them, but even take this qiē for granted. They were also taught the basic concepts of "country" and "home", and although the utility would not soon be apparent, a monarch like Tianxiang who was cheerful and good at planning and preparation was still very popular.

"Hard! Hard! I pulled it up, I pulled it up! ”

"Quick! Quickly bury the earth! Stomp on! ”

With a loud "boom", the last wooden door was finally pulled up by the combined efforts of three cows and more than a dozen people. At the moment when the gate was erected, more than a dozen figures immediately rushed out from Tianxiang's side. They took out the wooden hammers on their waists and struck them on the top beams, smashing the door wall that was not very strong again!

When the sun set, a large, wide village camp surrounded by wooden walls was built.

When it was finished, the camp erupted in bursts of cheers, the sound was so loud that the people working at the bottom of the mountain could clearly hear it. Although I don't know what happened, it is clear that the high mood of the crowd in the village is also transmitted to the people in the forest below. For a while, everyone raised their arms and cheered, and the entire valley echoed "Long live my king!" "It's done! That's great! "It's not too neat to cheer.

Tianxiang wiped his nose and glanced at the disgraced Ni on the side with a smile on his face.

"It's been a hard week. Ni, in particular, is responsible for instructing the hunting team in the use of bows, guarding and keeping me safe, and even working as a temporary coolie. It's really hard work. ”

"No, it is my honor to serve the king! If it weren't for the saws you invented, which would have greatly increased the speed of logging for the people, if you hadn't met us in advance that we needed a lot of wood to build the walls, if you hadn't mobilized and encouraged the women and children to participate in the construction in advance. I've lived for more than twenty years, and it's the first time I've seen the speed at which a camp can be pulled up so quickly. Part of the credit here belongs to all the people here, but more to the king's foresight of the progress of the whole project, which is so perfect. Ni lowered his head and said modestly.

Tianxiang smiled and didn't say anything more.

In this way, before today's night, Tianxiang's first base was established.

Although the camp itself was still very empty, with only a row of wooden walls around it, it was all open space. But it doesn't matter, when more than 100 people enter this camp with a width of more than 200 meters at night, the torches lit all night shine on the camp, lighting up a bright orange lamp for the dark night......

Looking down from the sky, the new village is silent in the night. In the vast shadows of the night, there were small dots that shimmered slightly. The light was still very faint, and could even go out at any moment. But when it was silent in the dark night, the faint light seemed so bright and dazzling, as if it illuminated the night sky of the whole night, bringing a miracle of light to the dark and oppressive dark world.
