Chapter 30: A New Plan
Zhong Huaqiang, who was keeping vigil, sat cross-legged on the ground, with a notebook spread out on his lap, on which only the date and weather were written: "August 3 Weather: Sunny."
"Old Zhong, don't you really have to rest, you can indeed change shifts and keep vigil, I spend most of my time just looking at the surrounding situation, I don't do any physical work, it's okay to keep watch for half a night." Nan Xingyue asked when she saw Zhong Huaqiang sitting.
"No, I went to bed early last night, it's nothing to keep a day today, and the Fusang Zizi who is always at peace is not able to keep people awake, and then rest when tomorrow's things are dealt with, the task that was supposed to be completed today is delayed because of me, and it is not good to call people over, you have been using Yuan Li to keep patrolling before you have to rest more, I still have some things, it just happened that tonight's vigil was dealt with together, you go to rest, you have a light sleep, and now it is long past your time to rest."
"Okay, then I'll go to sleep." Nan Xingyue was indeed sleepy, and she didn't say anything more.
"Hmm."
After Nan Xingyue turned to leave, Zhong Huaqiang looked down at the date and put his chin on his chin with a pen cap: "It's the third day, there are still twelve days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, we have to speed up the progress, we must arrange everything on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, otherwise it will be difficult to have the opportunity to make them all pay attention, but what to do?" ”
After thinking for a long time, Zhong Huaqiang took out the plan in the back of the notebook and unfolded it, flipped to the front for comparison, drew a few strokes from time to time, made a few marks, and modified the plan a little.
The sun rises in the east, a group of people began to wash one after another, Zhong Huaqiang didn't say anything when he saw it, but just called most of the people before breakfast to say today's arrangement, first of all, the body of the tricycle was built, and then loaded with three cars of yellow mud, the silt in the dug pond should also be transported, and the collected grass and wood ash should also find a place to put it away, the current method of covering with straw poles does not work when there is a strong wind, so two more rooms must be built, at least the foundation must be circled out in the morning, and there is no task in the afternoon for the time being, You can look for ways to improve your food.
The day passed quickly, and the task assigned by Zhong Huaqiang was basically completed, in addition to improving the food, because the two rooms were still being built at night, there was really no time to do anything else, and they went to sleep after being busy, but the tricycle that was not arranged was built, and the paint was also painted, which was green, because I felt that the green paint felt that it was not right to use anywhere, so I took this first tricycle to test the water.
On the fifth day, or the sixth day when their class came in, there were not enough stones, and the original plan was to build a wall, but now there are not enough classrooms and rest rooms, so they can only take a day off, go to the mountains to find stones, find them in different areas, and take one or two pieces directly to the center of the sub-region, and then bring them back together. Zhong Huaqiang also specially told him to find one side, don't go over the mountain to find it, don't dig the soil to find it, take it back if you can find it on the surface, don't consume too much physical strength, and don't alarm the powerful Yuan Beast.
After a busy day, everyone found two things: first, there are still many stones on the mountain, but most of them are crispy, and the larger ones can still be used, and the smaller stones in it can be made into a small grinding plate, which may not be used to build a sleeping house. The second thing, with the strength of most of them, not to mention catching pheasants and hares, even catching a grasshopper will be kicked twice, and catching a grasshopper can't catch up, and Wang Qiwu saw a praying mantis, but he was drawn a few lines, and he didn't catch it in the end.
During dinner, Wang Hu almost couldn't help but get angry, and scolded Wang Qiwu while asking him to stretch out his hand: "How old is it?" You can actually catch a bug and hang the color, and your face is scratched, look at your hands! It's all inflamed! See for yourself what you've been drawn into! Tell me how many times you've been scratched, and your sleeves are fluffy! Your clothes are also cheesecloth! It has also been soaked in medicine! If you weren't lucky today, you just happened to have some stewed wild vegetables that could be used as medicine, and your hands would be waiting for you! ”
Wang Qiwu didn't dare to say a word, stretched out a hand that was inflamed and swollen on the back of his hands, and was grabbed by Wang Hu on his wrist with medicine, the gauze was used by Chang Zi'an, Chang Zi'an was sure that it was okay, and he took it off and washed it and scalded it a few times during the lunch meal, and dried it for later use, but it was just dried and used, and by the way, it was dyed a color, and it was dyed pale green by the grass juice that was leached.
Not many people cared about the small episode before dinner, after all, everyone was in a bad mood, and most of them were a little depressed after recognizing their strength, so Zhong Huaqiang made a decision to let Mo Niya take classes at night to talk about the safety precautions against the Yuan Beast and the method of hunting food.
After all, they are now also in line with the conditions for stability, in addition to the toilet there are two houses, although I didn't want to live, but if you want to lecture inside, you still can't squeeze in, you can only lecture in the open air, five bonfires are surrounded by a regular pentagon, and the podium blackboard and desk are naturally not, but fortunately, Mo Xiangyao brought a few drawing boards and a long roll of paper and brushes for writing calligraphy, so as not to even take notes.
Textbooks were originally available, but they were all in the class teacher's place, after selection and processing, it is an important subject point, especially printed to be waterproof and fireproof, according to the requirements is the latest to send it on the 10th, it is not yet time, and it can be received later and there are fewer things.
The lecture started at seven o'clock and ended at nine o'clock, and for two hours, no one dared to speak out, and only Mo Ruyan was speaking alone, and no one proposed to go to the toilet or anything. Not everyone was listening, those who weren't listening were asleep, and those who were still awake were divided into two parts, one was half-asleep and the other was listening carefully and taking notes.
After the lecture, Mo Crow did not leave in a hurry, but left it until ten o'clock to ask them questions, and after making sure that most of them understood, he decided not to repeat the lecture tomorrow morning.
I got up very early in the morning on the sixth day, and I got up when it was still dark, ready to walk around to see if I could meet nocturnal animals, but before I went out, I was stopped by Zhong Huaqiang and Wang Hu, who got up earlier, after all, after listening to the class, it doesn't mean that they have become stronger, but they know the method, and in the next few days, they will be supplemented by traps, picking wild fruits and digging sweet potatoes, and Mo Xiangcrow's lecture mentioned that there have been people in this area who have come to develop it before, and some crops can still be found now, and the reason for being abandoned is that they have been brushed aside, and they are not told in detail.
The trap is very simple, teach a few kinds, catch insects, use a larger bottle, put a funnel-shaped thing on the mouth, the small mouth towards the bottle, put the bottle horizontally, and then use a large stone against the bottom of the bottle, and then use a stone the size of one-third of the bottle mouth against the mouth of the bottle, fix the bottle around, put bait in the bottle, this piece because of their activities, there are always insects will be alarmed, put a little water in it can be caught.
The problem of food is also a small and half solved, at least these days do not have to rely only on soup to live, and Zhong Huaqiang also thought of a solution, the plants will not be harvested for a while and a half, but they do have rapeseeds, they can't be wasted, and there is silt, and it is not impossible to solve the problem of sunlight and temperature by Chang Zi'an, or things that can shine can also be, but unfortunately no one has brought a transparent plastic bag or plastic film, otherwise you can make a greenhouse, or you can try it with a glass house, and there is a lack of sand, and now the most realistic way is to provide sunlight from Chang Zi'an, In this way, it is also possible to grow vegetables in the room.
In addition to meat and existing wild vegetables, there are also mushrooms, which can also be grown by themselves, and do not need sunlight, as long as it is the right mushroom species, you can harvest more with the received forage and wood, the problem is that the mushrooms are not easy to find, and there are probably a lot of mushrooms that come out in autumn, but I don't know where they will come out, in this case it is a little difficult to grow mushrooms and let them accept them.
The food solution is there, the water is there, it was found on the fiveth, or someone is digging stones, and when digging the soil, it is impossible to dig a well, one they don't have the physical strength, two they don't have the technology, the tools are easy to say, the iron ore has been brought, the iron slag has also been brought, it is not difficult to make iron, there are people who can strike iron, the tools are relatively easy to say, it depends on whether you want to think about it or not, you can really dismantle and rebuild something, or use weapons to temporarily replace it.
After the spring water was dug out, a channel was dug and extended to the pond where the Yuan Beast was raised, and Zhong Huaqiang planned to connect the other ponds as well, and finally dig a pond near the place where he now lives, and lay the bottom with silt, so that he could leave more water when the rainy season came. But for now it's just a plan, because they don't have the stamina.
I have to do a lot of work every day, but I eat less, although there are three meals a day, but a meal is at most a bowl of soup per person, the rabbit caught before has eaten half, the other half is a female rabbit, in fact, there are two, the chicken is still because it will crow, this rooster crows, there are always a few roosters around from time to time to cry together, this is an important reason to support its survival, if there is no way for it to guide, it is more difficult to find other chickens, to take the initiative to find, there is this chicken in, go to the ambush where the rooster cries heard before, take this chicken with you, Seal its mouth first, untie it in the place, let it bark, lure out the other chickens, and then you can catch more chickens, but this is only a plan, because they are not strong enough, they can't beat it, occasionally let the chicken they catch come out to let the wind, several times they have to let the chicken run with the rope tied to the foot, the rope is brought over, but despite this, it still changed a few ropes to not let it peck the rope off.
After receiving the blows, Zhong Huaqiang and they had already discovered the problem, but they were helpless, in general, it was strength, the strength was not enough to make it difficult for them, so they could only rely on technology to solve it, otherwise with the cattle and sheep they found on the way over, if they could fight, it would be several good meals, and they would not still be drinking soup and eating insects.
