I am a Primitive Man
Chapter 106 Mud Roof and Stone Sickle
Shang stood on the low wall inside the enclosure, holding the rope in his hand.
Seeing someone below hanging a bag of mud on the wooden hook at the end of the rope, he began to pull the rope.
There are bumps on the rope every half a meter or so. This is to increase the friction, so that the people who pull the mud will not get blisters on their hands due to pulling for too long, and it can also save a lot of effort.
Shang was already strong, but now he stayed in the Qingque tribe for half a winter with delicious food and drink, and he continued to eat salt, which made his strength even stronger.
With a little force on his hand holding the rope, the 'gray pocket' filled with mud left the ground, and after a few times of pulling up alternately with both hands, the gray pocket rose to the upper part of the wall.
Shang lifted his right hand holding the rope upwards, and the whole Huidou went over the wall.
He didn't let go, but turned around in this position for half a circle, then bent down and put the ashes on the ground.
There was no need for others to fetch it. Shang, who was already familiar with this work, loosened the rope, and the wooden hook came out of the rope-made belt on the ash pocket. With a light lift of his hand, the hook came back.
Similarly, he didn't need to pay attention to the ashes bag that was placed underneath. Someone specially assigned to carry it to the edge of the deer pen and hand it to the person above the roof of the deer pen who was putting mud on the fence.
Shang turned around and hung the empty rope to the outside of the wall again.
The person carrying the mud here hasn't come yet, so he can take this opportunity to look around.
Standing on this low wall, the field of vision is very wide, because there are no trees to block it, Shang can see the edge of the small river at a glance.
At the creek, there were a few small figures moving.
Shang knew that it was a few minors in the tribe who were getting food for the tribe.
In the beginning, Shang was really shocked.
Because according to his thinking, after the arrival of spring, the most important thing that the tribe needs to do is to go hunting.
Because after a winter of consumption, there is not much food stored in the tribe.
And when he was in their tribe, he had always led everyone to do this.
However, the decision made by this tribe took him extremely by surprise.
Shenzi and the others were not in a hurry to go hunting, but gathered a large number of people from the tribe to start building the roof of the deer pen, which was completely unnecessary in Shang's view.
As for obtaining food, it was handed over to several minors in the tribe.
These minors didn't bring harpoons, but walked towards the creek with a few things he had never seen before.
They use this to catch fish?
Shang was bewildered.
Just when he was just beginning to worry about the possibility of going hungry at night, a minor who had gone to the small river earlier returned.
There are several fish in the fish basket on his back!
Shang was extremely shocked. He thought that the fishing speed would be very fast in winter, but he did not expect that after the ice and snow melted, the fishing speed would be even faster!
Even now, Shang still finds this inconceivable.
You must know that in their original tribe, all adults need to work together to get enough food, and they still go hungry from time to time.
And now in this tribe, the most important task of obtaining food is not done by the strongest adults, but by a few minors who would basically be free-eating if they were in their tribe!
As for the strongest perennials, they do things that have nothing to do with getting food.
The key is that the people in the tribe can't finish eating the food these minors get...
Shang didn't know how to express his feelings.
After he knew that all of these were methods taught by the Son of God, he only admired that minor even more.
Patter,
Pata
On the roof, senior brother Sha and others put the reconciled mud in the ashes bag on the grid.
According to Shenzi's explanation, the mud was about as deep as their fingers.
After each piece of mud was pasted, they would pick up a wooden stick about three meters long and about four centimeters in diameter that was split in the middle, and each of them would hold one end on the freshly pasted mud. Wipe it back and forth, this is to make the pasted mud smooth.
Doing things on the roof of the deer shed requires extra attention, because there is a risk of falling.
Therefore, the people above are all relatively agile, and they all follow the instructions of the Son of God, try to walk on the wooden beams as much as possible, even if there are no wooden beams, they must also step on the rafters, not just on the fence.
Although the roof area of the deer is not small, the labor force of the Qingque Tribe has also increased by nearly one-third, and the tools for digging the soil have also been greatly improved, so the matter of plastering the fence with mud is also not slow. .
However, it took six days to complete the project.
After the completion of the project, Han Cheng allocated half of his staff to find and harvest grass that could be used to cover the roof.
Obtaining this kind of grass is not too difficult for the Qingque tribe.
Because there are a lot of this kind of grass growing on the mountain bag where they built the cave.
The hill where the cave of the Qingque Tribe is located has more stones and less soil.
With less soil, there is little possibility of towering trees growing on it, so the above vegetation, including the low bushes and this kind of thatch that is resistant to barrenness and similar to later generations, is now officially called thatch by Han Cheng. The presence of grass dominates.
Ordinary grass will deteriorate after a severe winter, but thatch will not, because it grows hard by itself, and there is a layer of fine and shiny skin on the outside of the pole, which will greatly reduce the erosion of rainwater on it.
Of course, in detail, for the roof, it is better to harvest and store thatch in autumn, but for the current Qingque tribe, it is obviously not possible to meet this condition.
In addition, this is to make a roof for deer, not for human beings, so it can be used after a while.
Harvesting thatch grass will take a lot of effort if you fold it by hand, and it will hurt your hands after a long time of folding.
Under the circumstances that everyone had been working for half a day without much success, Han Cheng, who was their son of God, once again used his ingenuity, and thus, Stone Scythe was born!
The making of a stone sickle is not complicated. It only needs a thin stone knife, a stick with a diameter of about three centimeters, a length of fifteen to thirty centimeters, and a rope.
When making, first split the thicker end of the wooden stick into a crack about three to four centimeters along the diameter, and then clamp one end of the stone knife horizontally into the crack of the wooden stick.
And it is relatively thin, with the edge facing down, and the angle between the stone sickle and the wooden stick is about 70 degrees.
After adjusting the position, tie it firmly with a rope, and a stone sickle is ready.
Of course, this kind of stone sickle is much heavier than the iron sickle of later generations, and it will be more tiring to use when using it, but it is far more convenient and labor-saving than simply folding it by hand.
