It didn't take much time to build a simple water well. It took only three days, and the tiling project below was almost completed.
"Three days, do you know how I got here in these three days! There is mud all over the ground! The witches are covered in mud, and if you still dislike it, I will throw you down in a while."
Among the clansmen, Yan Pan muttered that the well was a bit small, but was stunned by Yan Fou, who was covered in mud from going down the hole.
Wooden columns and beams were erected on the vertical wellhead, and a rope had just been fixed to the load and beams.
It is a log post across the center of the wellhead, fixed on a cool stone platform, and has been dried by fire to prevent the growth of woodworms. This is called "drying method" in the original treatment, and it is also the earliest and most commonly used method. , so that the moisture inside the wood is less than 20%, then the wood will not have insects and will not be corroded.
"What is this thing?"
Yan Pan lowered his head, avoiding Yan Fou's glaring eyes, and changed the subject, just in time to see this strange thing.
"Pooler's wheel, good stuff."
Šu Zai demonstrated the movement, which is about turning and lifting the wooden barrel.
Barrel, this thing has also entered the eyes of many people.
Playing with barrels was not popular in ancient China. The earliest barrels appeared in the Shang Dynasty, or in other words, there were no barrels in the era of the four ancient civilizations. However, the absence of barrels does not mean that everyone will not hold water. Many gadgets were invented in the ancient country, and their functionality is similar to that of wooden barrels.
Everyone likes to play with jars.
And in the Shang Dynasty, China came up with the orange and barrel (made by the King of Shang, limited to the East), so the seesaw operation of using the lever to fetch water appeared for the first time in this world of mountains, seas and human beings.
Now, what I have produced is the potter's wheel, which is often hung on the wells in rural areas. This thing is an upgraded and enhanced version of the orange. It has been used for a long time, and it is easy to operate. That's it.
The bucket made by Yu Zai is also very simple. Find a tree with a relatively large base, and then chop it down. Hollow out the thick trunk in the middle, burn it dry and drain the water, and after a little processing, it will almost become this thing. .
These are all non-technical things, even eighty-year-olds in rural areas can do them, but for the current era, they are indeed remarkable inventions.
There is no hemp rope, because there is no hemp, and there is no palm grass, so the all-purpose old rattan is still used as the rope.
The tribe can have everything, but rattan alone is the only thing that can't live without rattan. In this era, rattan can be said to run through daily life and hunting activities.
"Gululu"
The horizontal log pile was turned, and Yuzai showed everyone how to operate it. The wooden barrel was thrown down, and then Yuzai lay down on the railing of the wellhead and fished hard.
The barrel was filled with water, and she started to come back and turn the wooden handle.
Soon, a bucket of water was brought up, and it was much more convenient and less labor-intensive than the one in the north, which directly carried the crock down to fetch water.
"not bad!"
Many clansmen were very excited to point and point, and then Dayi came to try it.
He only used a little strength, fearing that the handle would be broken, and after the barrel went down, it was quickly turned up under Dayi's operation.
"This is called a potter's wheel? Yes, it's a good thing, and the production method is not troublesome."
Dayi laughed and said, "I think it's okay! I said before that it would take so long to drill a well, but now it seems that it is really interesting. Then the salt fields and dams you mentioned also look different from those in the north. Bar?"
"In general, it's not too bad."
Šu Zai responded: "We still have a lot to do."
Yes, we still have a lot to do.
After the tribe has a well and installed a potter's wheel, the tribe no longer has to go to the Daze to fetch water, which not only liberates part of the labor force for fetching water, but also reduces the risk of being attacked by wild animals.
The old tortoise was fried well, but in the same way, there will be a powerful creature in a certain area, just like in the swamp water near Xunshan Mountain, Da Dengshe is the boss, and when they live in groups, other beasts dare not approach. Now that the old tortoise is dead and the land beast is dead, the impact will be great. When this area is vacated, those relatively weak guys will find time to enter here.
Because the area occupied by land beasts is generally a relatively good place.
There are many wild beasts in the poor mountains and bad waters. They are eyeing these good places and looking forward to the death of the old tortoise. It is not just the Akakata family, but also the surrounding circle of wild beasts.beast.
Therefore, Nan Daze is not without danger, but the new danger has not noticed the death of the old tortoise, and has not gathered for the time being.
"With a well, people in the tribe can fetch water at home!"
"The essence has matured! There is something to eat!"
The soldiers carried the water jars and sent them home. In the cultivated land, the harvest of the first batch of leeks had already begun, which meant that the tribe had finally started to produce food. Next, we only needed to wait for the taro, rice, and green vegetables to mature , everything can start to go on the right track, and the number of people hunting and fishing in the future can also be reduced and put into new production.
Looking at the green arable land, Yan Zai felt extremely happy.
"In a sense, this is a good era. The world is not a complete slavery system, nor is it a complete feudal system. The emperor belongs to the emperor, the people belong to the people, and the gods belong to the gods. Heaven and earth do not interfere. "
No reason is needed for any action, behavior, just because our tribe likes to do it, so we do it.
It's a pity that the three mountains and four fields are a little far away from here. Otherwise, with the strength of everyone, an organization such as an agricultural cooperative can be established, and the farming efficiency can be greatly improved.
This is an era of public ownership. Public ownership does not only exist in the Central Plains, but also in local areas.
The means of production are collectively owned by all the people or laborers.
This is an era in which the commonwealth and slavery go hand in hand, compete with feudalism, stagger step by step, and constantly explore the way forward. In this era, the existing system of the world has not yet been established, Shun is still a young man, and Yu is still alive. Playing in the mud in the field, Nvjiao may only be six or seven years old, and she is still an ignorant child. As for Qi, who turned the public world into a home world, he is not even a tadpole now.
During this period of farming, Yuzai's originally slightly weak body has become thicker, her physical strength has increased significantly, and the sick state at the beginning no longer exists.
This is a good omen, and Yuzai knows and looks forward to it. After the tribe's totem is restored, everything will naturally be better.
A summer rain caused the water level in Daze to rise a lot.
The original embankment of rammed earth began to be built around Daze, and many diversion channels were set up. This is destined to be a long project, so the number of people is not too many, and dozens of people are all the labor force.
In order to prevent new water-attribute Pok¨¦mon from appearing and launching a flood similar to the previous one, simple diversion and flood control are necessary. Fortunately, Dayi also volunteered to help. Together, we plan the land here.
And those dozens of fighters said that Dayi alone was enough, because Dayi alone rammed up an entire wall in one day, and some fighters told Yanzai that they seemed like waste.
