The cattle and sheep living in the Qingque tribe are really hard.
Especially cattle.
does not only need to pull the plow, pull the cart, do all kinds of heavy work, farm work.
After they die, they still need to contribute their skin and flesh. What is even more sad is that for the great progress of the Blue Sparrow tribe's weapons, they need to become bald for it!
This matter, just thinking about it, makes people feel particularly sad...
The ox horn bow of the Qingque tribe was made by Han Cheng and some people after they returned from the mountain with cattle.
is like this, mainly because the horns are not easy to get.
In order to get two horns from the cow that the people in the tribe regard as treasures and treat them like eyeballs, Junior Brother Sha has spent a lot of thought.
This must be another story that is not only tortuous, but also makes people feel sad.
The reasons for the time and the number of words are not described here.
With the foundation of the horn bow, the production of the horn bow is not that difficult for Junior Sha.
only need to make some improvements on the basis of the claw bow.
According to the gourd drawing a scoop, it is not so difficult for Junior Sha, who is extremely accomplished in bows and arrows...
The weather is getting colder and colder, and the yellow leaves are all over the ground.
The people in the Red Tiger tribe are working hard to make bows and arrows and are very happy about it.
The people in the Red Tiger tribe are constantly charging toward the bow and arrow, and are delighted with the achievements of their tribe now, and dream of catching up with the Qingque tribe, the Qingque tribe’s bows and arrows have long been reborn.
There are not only seven or eight hundred horn bows, but also nine more powerful horn bows!
At this time, the first sharpshooter of the Qingque tribe, holding a horn bow in his hand, looked at the children who ran toward him with a rabbit that died from the arrow, and revealed A big smile.
Under the sun of late autumn and early winter, the horn bow made of horns, bamboo slices, beef tendons, fish swim bladder glue, mulberry wood, etc., is wrapped around the python skin, exuding some dazzling and charming luster...
At the same moment, between the Qinling residential area and the Jinguan City across the mountain, everyone was not idle.
Except for some of the people in the tribe who are busy building houses, most of the others have descended into the paddy fields.
In addition to some people who have cultivated before and have harvested a crop of rice fields here, more people are carrying things such as iron heads and copper shovel to open up wasteland.
"what!"
In the yelling of the "cow handle style", the cow in the cow hood, pulling the plow, struggling to move the hoof, and walked forward.
With the force of the cow, a moist soil turned over and buckled aside...
"Nest!"
The man who used the cow suddenly yelled a command to stop the cow and pulled the ‘skew rope’ tied to the plow handle behind.
‘skew rope’ is connected to the cow’s nose ring.
Under the double action of the password and pulling the skimmer, the bull pulling the plow stopped.
The bull handle holding the plow at the back. After the bull stopped, he started to hold the handle of the plow with both hands, preparing to pull the plow out of the soil.
After exerting force twice in a row, he couldn't pull it out.
This is because the cow has pulled the cow too tightly, and the plow is buried tightly in the soil due to this pulling force, and there is no room to go back.
After tried two times without success, this ox-handling style no longer has the idle power.
"Shuo!"
"Shuo!"
This person shouted such a command, and took advantage of the trend to pull back the skimmer in his hand.
Under the dual action of the password and the skimmer, the bull pulling the plow began to retreat.
As it retreats, the cowhide is no longer taut.
The man embraced the handle of the plow again with both hands, and pulled back forcefully. The plow that had fallen into the ground came out immediately.
saves a lot of effort than before.
The plow came out, but the situation is not very optimistic.
Because the underside of this plow has been deformed!
Not only the plowshare became curved, but the plough wall also became a little deformed.
Such a plow obviously cannot be used again.
This person was helpless, so he temporarily removed the cowhide from the cow, led the cow to a side with grass and tied it, let him rest here, and eat some grass by the way.
And he, carrying the broken plow, returned to the tribe, went to the tribe who specialized in repairing these tools, and asked them to repair the plow.
On the way back, the man's mood was not high, and he looked a little sighing.
The plow is broken, delaying work.
This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that this is the third plow he has worn out!
has learned the lessons of the previous two times. Now he has been very careful in plowing, but he still cannot avoid the damage of the plow.
When I go back to the tribe, from time to time I can see some half-elder children who return to the tribe carrying utensils such as heads and brass shovel.
None of the farming tools carried by these children are full.
Many are severely distorted.
is even more miserable, but the whole is broken in two!
Of course, these farm tools were not broken by these minors.
They are still young, have little strength, and do not have such a large destructive ability.
These are the masterpieces of adults who are working in the fields.
These children are responsible for transporting broken bronze tools back to the tribe for repair.
There are also some children, carrying the repaired equipment, and heading to the fields from the tribe.
This is to give some repaired appliances to adults in the field.
, carrying the plow, returned to the tribe, came to the place where professionally repaired the equipment, and saw more things.
Looking around, the eyes are all broken bronze farm tools.
Some distorted and badly damaged farm tools are put in the stove and burned for a while. After heating up, they are quickly beaten and repaired. They can be used again, and the repairs are not too troublesome.
The most troublesome thing is those farm tools that are directly broken off.
After such a farm tool is broken, the artisans in the tribe still have no means to connect them together and make them extremely strong.
So I can only clean it and return it to the furnace.
melted into juice, and after reaching the point of perfection, put it into the mold and recreate new farm tools.
This man is carrying a plow, which is the most efficient and fastest tool in the tribe to turn the ground. After it is broken, the tribe will suffer the most losses, so it has priority.
After seeing the arrival of this person, someone who was doing repairs here immediately stopped his work and began to come over to rest the plow.
First remove the plowshares and ploughshares, and then start repairing without stopping...
This person is waiting here, looking at the many broken agricultural tools, and thinking about the work that has been delayed because of this, it is a pity that he is full of anxiety and feels very sorry.
If the tools are strong and not bad, then the people of their own tribe will open up much more land in such a time.
These extra land is used to grow crops, how much more food can the tribe harvest in time!
The more he settled the accounts, the more pity he felt in his heart.
In the past, he thought the bronze farm tools in the tribe were very useful.
But now, I feel that bronze farm tools are not very good to use.
Because the bronze farm tools are not strong enough, nor hard enough.
Compared with tools made of bone, stone, wood and other materials, bronze farm tools are indeed very easy to use. I don’t know how much higher they are!
However, bronze farm tools are also not perfect.
When I only came into contact with and used bronze farm tools before, the people of the Qingque tribe didn't feel that way.
But with the increasing time of using bronze farm tools, people in the tribe began to slowly become less satisfied with bronze farm tools.
From time to time, someone will think, if the tribe can make tools that are more useful than bronze farming tools, how great it would be!
Thinking of these things in his heart, this person sitting here, waiting for the repairman in the tribe to fix the plow, something appeared in his mind.
These things are the black stones that the gods call meteorites and tools made from the meteorites obtained from the tribes that defeated the Blackstone Tribe.
The tools made of meteorite iron are not only strong, but also very sharp. It is the best material he has ever seen so far, and it can satisfy all his illusions about making farm tools!
If only it could be made into farm tools from meteorite!
In this way, it is used to plow the ground to grow grain, so there is no need to worry about the broken farm tools.
The speed of plowing the ground for planting will also become very fast, and a lot of food can be planted!
However, such a thing can only be thought of and cannot be realized.
Because the amount of meteorite is too scarce!
Such a long time has passed. Except for the Blackstone Tribe, where he obtained meteorite iron, his tribe has not obtained meteorite iron anywhere else.
These meteorite irons are only used to make such important tools as axes and planes. They are not enough. It is simply impossible to apply them to farm tools.
"Oh~"
Thinking of these things in his heart, this person couldn't help but sighed long.
Such a thing, I think it’s a vain thought, or just wait for the repairman in the tribe. After fixing the plow, let’s go to the plow yourself...
On the field outside Jinguan City, Han Cheng, the son of the tribe, was standing here at this time.
The weather became colder, and the clothes he was wearing became thicker.
Han Cheng has been standing here for a while.
His gaze not only saw the land that was turned over and cultivated, but also the minors carrying farm tools and traveling between fields and tribes.
This is a common sight in the tribe.
especially after coming to Jinguan City.
Compared with the soil quality of the Green Bird Master Tribe, the soil quality here in Jinguan City is much thicker.
This kind of land is not only laborious to cultivate, but also very tool-intensive.
After came here, the tribe’s bronze farm tools were damaged much faster!
I see a lot of things like this, but it doesn't mean that Han Chengcheng can get used to such things.
Many people in the tribe feel that this kind of equipment is not working well, and it delays life.
He, a person from later generations who has seen many advanced things, is even more accustomed.
It’s just that, before, because the population here in Jinguan City has achieved a rapid increase, and correspondingly, the cultivation of food has not developed.
There is not enough food in the tribe.
In order to solve the most important stomach problem, Han Cheng had to put this matter aside first, and concentrated his efforts to obtain sufficient food for the tribe.
Now, as I went to the Red Tiger tribe, I slaughtered two fat sheep in a row, bringing a lot of food from there, plus what my tribe had harvested from the ground and trees, as well as hunting. The trade team of the Qingque tribe, such as Mao, used pottery and salt to earn from the other tribes. In addition, the older female primitive men of the old tribe, the second-dao dealers, gave them to their tribe. The food here in Jinguan City is enough. Up.
As long as there is no extravagance, people in Jinguan City will not be hungry.
In this situation, my tribe can indeed shift its center of gravity a little bit~EbookFREE.me~ You don’t need to stare at the food, you can do some other things.
It is not like looking for iron ore, mining and smelting the iron ore, and then making iron tools with better performance and better use!
Steel is a good thing!
Before this era, Han Cheng, who was accustomed to using steel and full of steel products in his life, did not feel that steel was so important.
But after he came to primitive society, he truly realized that he had been used to it before, and he didn't think what was important, how important it was!
Steel products can not only improve the efficiency of various things, but also can be made into weapons, which greatly enhance the armed forces of the tribe and make the tribe more powerful and prosperous.
stood here and pondered carefully for a while, and after making an estimate of the food stored in his tribe, Han Cheng decided on finding iron ore to develop steel products.
After standing here for a while, Han Cheng turned and walked towards the tribe, and began to arrange the matter.
In the tribe, some trade team members, such as Mao and Xiong Youer, are packing up their things here, preparing for a new round of outgoing trade, bringing back food from the tribe.
"Mao, when I went out this time, tell those who exchanged with our tribe that in addition to food, stones, seeds, and cubs can also be exchanged for things from our tribe. The rules are still in the main tribe. same……"
