Since spring ploughing, all the seeds have fallen to the ground. Most of the warriors and men of the tribe were making bricks in the brick-making department.
This time, Li Yue is going to build a house that is suitable for family living conditions. Bedrooms, kitchens, and toilets are required, and only bungalows can be built in limited conditions at present.
The house is inverted, with the front room being the living room, the bedroom on the left, and the kitchen and toilet on the right.
In the bedroom and kitchen, the outer wall of the house began to enclose the garden, 5 meters in front of the living room, the whole house facilities structure is just square, in front of the house garden is a 4-meter-wide cement road, the road is reserved for street lamps and green trees.
This highway connects every house, every household.
The garden is for the people to grow flowers, grass, trees, and food. You just can't afford not to plant.
Li Yue mainly wants to create the beauty of a quiet mountain village. He has always longed for a cottage, a small dog, and an environment with flowers and grass when he goes out.
Inside the house, Li Yue equipped each house with a set of tables and chairs, wardrobes, small cabinets, pots and pans, etc.
As for the bed, the tribesmen said that they wanted floor heating, so they made it into a fire pit. The rest of the clothing had to wait for the cotton and wool to be successfully spun and redistributed.
Li Yue also put a lot of effort into the tap water of the house, they cut off the stream closest to the tribe, and built a very wide reservoir there, from where the tap water flowed to every part of the tribe.
Just to build this iron pipe, Dan of the iron department stayed up late for 3 days, and he couldn't stay up before resting, so he took a short break and stayed up late, and the entire iron department was closed for more than a month, eating, drinking, and Lasa were in it before grabbing all the fallen water pipes.
Now the tribe not only has water, but also hot and cold water to use.
Since both the brick and pottery departments need very high temperatures, in order to cool things down in time and not waste this heat, they built a large iron bucket, which is connected to the hot water pipe of the tap water, and as soon as the temperature rises, the people will open the hot water valve to come hot water.
As long as the tribesmen want to make bricks and burn pottery, there will always be hot water, and it will not be cold in the middle of the night, and it will be more convenient to bathe the tribesmen and use living water.
This time, Li Yue and the others unanimously decided that the house should be allocated to the clansmen with families first, if there is no family, a house must be occupied by 4 people.
The house is not permanently theirs. At present, it is still distributed by the tribe, but Li Yue said that after a large number of steel bars are brought out next year to renovate the old house, the tribesmen will be free to choose the house.
As for the old houses before them, they will not be idle this winter, they will be used for the site where the work needs to be done in the winter.
"Jiang Zi, Uncle Feisha, have all the foundations been laid?" Taking a moment, Li Yue ran to the construction site to check the progress. Now the front is full of renovation and mess, and it is completely impossible to see whether the foundation has been laid or not.
"The foundation has been laid, and now we are waiting for the iron department to bring the pipe over and install the water pipe" Feisha participated in the whole process of brick making, and he was also taking the lead on the construction site, so he was very clear about these situations, and he said to Li Yue: "Lord Sacrifice, there is not enough manpower in the cement production area now, and you may need to draw some more manpower to come."
Now all the people who lay the foundation have to build houses, and they want to repair all the houses within 3 months, but the more than 100 of them are still very reluctant.
Li Yue said yes.
"Jiang Zi, can you keep up with the speed of your beams and wood?"
"We can keep up, our side is the last to need, so we are in a hurry to do half of it now."
"Okay, then I'll leave the building of the house to you!"
"No problem, Sacrifice Lord" Jiang Zi and Feisha said in unison.
They also yearn for the scene described by Li Yue. It's not just about doing things that are good for the tribe, it's about learning and challenging these new things.
Time passed day by day, and it was very smooth in the female knights trained by Lu Ying, and at present, there are 80 female knights who have become qualified warriors through hard work, and the warriors have struggled in the advantage of height and speed, and greatly defeated the warriors several times, which is exciting The warriors are very unconvinced.
So they also had an idea for the mount.
"Lord Sacrifice, what do you think are the methods?!" Da Niu is a fierce man, since he was defeated by the female knights, he has been dissatisfied, especially those women who ride horses all day long, or lead horses to shake around the tribe, which is even more exciting for him to blood to rise.
So he proposed to Li Yue to teach them to tame the cow, since the horse already belongs to the woman! Then they will become bull warriors!
Li Yue also had a question mark on his face after hearing this, tame the cow? Forgive him for knowing only the peasant cows, the fighting bulls, and the dairy cows, none of which are for people to sit on.
He didn't know how to use an ox as a mount, and he didn't know how fast the ox was in this era, and whether it was suitable for a mount.
Can he say that he doesn't know, seeing that the big cow is angry and bloody, it is obviously impossible: "...... You can pull a cow and try it! ”
Optimistically, the cattle of this era are very different from the cattle he knows, and maybe they are suitable for mounting.
"Do it the way and the tools of the horse"
"Then let's take the cows of the tribe first!"
"Well, try it for yourselves, be kind to them!" Li Yue is nervous, don't give him the cow to lose!
The big cow immediately shouted the news as he walked. "Brothers, Lord Priest has agreed!"
Leave Li Yue alone to ponder other issues.
It's just that this contemplation didn't take long for Lu Ying to come.
"Lord Priest, what are you thinking?" Lu Ying was obviously very happy, "Lord Priest, I have something to discuss with you"
"What's the matter?"
"It's a warrior's rattan armor, and we female knights want it too"
Lu Ying has seen the rattan armor they wear since she joined the Ji tribe, don't look simple, it seems to be weak, but in fact, the sword is not easy to cut, and it can be set on fire with a layer of oil. Moreover, a man can protect the torso of a warrior when he falls on the rocky ground. The whole rattan armor is also very lightweight, which is very suitable for women to wear.
"Oh, this matter, you discuss it with Jiang Zi, see how many things are in the hands of the clan, you are really too busy, you can get raw materials from Jiang Zi. You make a set that works for you."
Lu Ying thought that it would be good to do it herself, and said to Li Yue: "That's okay, sacrifice to the lord, I'll go first!" ”
"Good!" Li Yue wanted to continue to ponder the question just now, but he couldn't calm down.
"Forget it, go for a walk around the tribe"
Li Yue walked and walked to the pottery department, the current pottery department is completely different from the previous simplicity, the house is newly repaired, the tile is made of glazed tiles, eh, it is a colored tile, the house used to be built with bamboo pieces of the shelf has become a wooden frame made of wood, there are all kinds of samples in a regular manner, all kinds of colors, all kinds of styles, Li Yue also saw the pottery knife on it! The sharpness is the same as that of an iron knife.
Li Yue smiled, this Bai Zhen is a natural pottery master.
Bai is a child who was in the cave with him before, and Li Yue was picked up, at the beginning of the establishment of the pottery department, and Yong came to try to make pottery, Yong failed, but Bai stayed, and became a master of pottery, taught a lot of apprentices, and now leads people to contribute to the development of the tribe.
Bai is also very willing to learn and dare to do it, and he heard about Tao from Li Yue, and he is doing everything. The biggest highlight is that Shiro has learned to add ore to dye the pottery color, and has also fired very beautiful ceramics!
When Li Yue saw it, he felt that this craftsmanship was similar to that of later generations, but the style was very different in style.
"Huh! Tree...... Well, you're here! Saying that Cao Cao Cao arrived, Bai ran to Li Yue's side and said happily: "I haven't seen you for a long time!" ”
"Me too, you're still taller!" Li Yue found that the current Bai was about 10 centimeters taller than him, he was shocked, Yong couldn't avoid eating all kinds of food in the cafeteria, how could you, a person who sits all day and night in the Tao Department, develop faster than he runs all day long?
"Hehe, it's not much taller" Bai scratched his head embarrassedly, and took a closer look at Li Yue, "Lord Sacrifice, you are opening up a lot, and you are getting more and more beautiful!" ”
Hehe, Li Yue doesn't want to be beautiful, he just wants to be tall and strong.
"Thanks for the compliment, I'm fine right now, come and see you"
"Haha, welcome to come and see, come, recently the clan asked me to be a potter, I have to be like you, you don't look like you" Bai walked to the innermost, took out a piece of fur-wrapped pottery, and held it in front of Li Yue.
"It's quite similar!" Li Yue's eyes lit up, not to mention this thing, it really looks like him. The colors on it are very harmonious and natural.
"Bai, your skills are getting better and better, you can do anything!"
"Not either!" Bai became humble again, "Speaking of which, thank you for giving me so much inspiration and methods."
"Hey, don't talk about this, awesome is awesome!" Li Yue didn't like to talk about official words, so she opened the topic and asked, "Have you done anything else?" ”
Bai wrapped the pottery man and said, "No."
"It's a pity that you have this craft, do more, such as those beasts, beauties, these things, when the goods go out, there must be many people who want to rush to get them!"
"Merchandise?" Bai is puzzled.
Only then did Li Yue react, now they are developing behind closed doors, and they are not connected to the outside world at all.
The only one who has the conditions to connect is the three young people of the beast tribe, and the key is that they are dedicated to mining salt in the original fire tribe. His own tribe is still the target of others, and now trading with them is simply sending them to add food.
So there is no way out at all if there are goods.
Now there is no commodity trading market, they can build one, but who will come from this central area far from the southeast and northwest?
Or do you want to sell like a trader? But where to go first?
To the tribe of beasts? Or go to the tribes of the north?
And does your own tribe have the ability to fight those powerful tribes? There are still countless problems that cannot be solved.
These questions exploded in Li Yue's mind, causing the headache to be good for a while.
"Priest Lord? Are you alright, are you sick? Bai looked at Li Yue's brows getting tighter and tighter, and his face was still pale, beware of whether he was sick.
"I'm fine," Li Yue pinched the bridge of her nose.
No matter what happened now, Li Yue still decided to pull up the force value in the tribe and raise the amount of food reserves first.
Now that he could experiment with winter wheat, in order to increase the enthusiasm of the clansmen, Li Yue decided to make a full meal tonight.
"White, I'll go first, tomorrow we'll eat food made of wheat"
"Huh? All right! "Bai has long wanted to know what the food made of this wheat tastes like.
Li Yue had asked the old man Ge Bu to build a stone mill for a long time, and when he heard that Li Yue wanted to use wheat to make food, the clansmen spontaneously cleaned the stone mill early.
Li Yue asked the clansmen to grind out hundreds of catties of wheat,
"Sacrifice to your lordship,"
Due to the limited conditions, there is no yeast and no wine, and if you want the flour to ferment, Li Yue has to get the yeast ball out a day in advance.
It is very simple to make yeast, put flour and water into a dough a day in advance, and place it in a warm place, the dough will swell and become sour after a long time, and this sour taste means that the fermentation is successful.
The next day, you only need to put a lump into the new dough, which is equivalent to adding yeast, and the dough can ferment smoothly, and then leave some dough down to continue to do it next time, and so on, this is the old dough fermentation method.
Of course, you can also learn European fermentation, that is, the water from the fermentation of sweet fruits is made of yeast, and many European bread are made by this fermentation method, which will be more delicious.
Li Yue asked the hunting team to prepare more fresh meat to return to the tribe. Also prepare a lot of garlic, ginger, and wild vegetables. I got a lot of honey from the ginger.
Li Yue prepares to make steamed buns, steamed buns, dumplings, and knife-cut noodles, which are all simple and easy-to-learn foods.
Due to the large number of clansmen, there are now more than 100 people who come to the canteen to help, and they have learned Li Yue's steps.
To make steamed buns, you need to knead the fermented dough into long strips, then pull off the dough of the same size by hand, cover most of the dough with a large leaf on one side to prevent the dough from drying out over time, and roll out the uncovered dough one by one with a rolling pin into a dough block with thin edges and thick middle, and then wrap the meat filling by the clansmen in the back. Take the leaves to the bottom and put them in a bamboo steamer to wait for 2 fermentations.
Dumplings are the same as buns, except that the dumplings are thinner. There is no need for 2 fermentations, or even sourdough.
Making steamed bread is very simple, the dough needs a little more salt than the bun, and then knead the dough and knead and then knead to increase the chewiness, this step is more laborious, men do more, and then also make the same big dough kneaded into a circle, or knead into a long strip with a knife to cut the same dough can also be, when the time comes to steam out is the difference between round steamed bread and rectangular steamed bread, and finally the same fermentation, the second fermentation increases to the original 3/1 steamed out of the best taste.
These have to be counted according to the head, buns and steamed buns are not too much to be put away, it is easy to overferment, and the taste will be sour.
So make 3/2 of the number of people first, and then beat the dough with only salt constantly, knead it into a large dough, and wait for the water to boil and start to cut the dough.
Li Yue was going to make some toast, but now the bread oven was too slow, so he would do it first.
When the beans are ripe, Li Yue will make fritters with soy milk, which is not too cool!
Then make some scones, make some pieces of meat, and then make a hamburger or a meat bun.
Several cauldrons are opened at the same time, and the white clouds are swirling with the sweetness of the wheat fragrance. A different refreshing taste surrounds the entire tribe. Everyone is looking forward to the delicious food made by wheat.
"It smells so good! Mother-in-law! The child stopped his hand and set the spinning machine. Look up and close your eyes and smell the scent.
"Yes, this is the wheat fragrance that the sacrificial lord said" The old man is in good spirits, and he has met Li Yue in the summer when he is in the cold, she asked the sacrificial lord, "Is this food delicious?" The priest closed his eyes and said, "Do you feel the smell of the flowers and trees in the heavens and the earth?" It's what it tastes like."
Now she's feeling it! Thanksgiving Sacrifice!
Food belongs to nature's gift to them.
"Let's go! It's time to call it a day and eat! "The people have been tormented by this smell all morning. When it's time to get off work, I feel like I'm rushing to the cafeteria.
Today, Li Yue adopts a self-service eating method for the clansmen, taking what they want to eat, eating as much as they want, but they can't waste it.
"Delicious! What a comfortable feeling for my stomach! ”
"The steamed buns have a natural sweetness! It smells so good! ”
"This dumpling is so slippery! The meat and wheat are so delicious together! ”
"Hey! Really, I found that the meat wrapped in this pie tastes better than eating it alone! ”
"Me too, I have a comfortable stomach after eating"
"Grandpa, this is so soft! You're missing your teeth, eat more! ”
"Good!"
There are many old people and children in the tribe, their teeth are not good at biting, or they simply have rotten teeth, no teeth, usually the tribe makes a lot of delicious meat, except for the stewed very bad, or thinly cut, the rest can not chew. You can only lick the smell from above.
Nowadays, the pasta is soft and sweet, and it is also very satisfying, and it is loved by the elderly and children.
After a meal of wheat fragrant, the people's passion for farming has reached a new level!
