The weather is hot, the surrounding vegetation is motionless, and the leaves are a little wilted by the hot sun.
In this weather, the road construction team of the Qingque tribe is still working.
Although the sun has been avoided when the sun is in full bloom, at this time, when building roads in the big sun, everyone is still sweating.
The sun is still second, the most uncomfortable is that the weather is too hot, almost people can't breathe.
Many men chose to have a bare back, and some bold women also unbuttoned the front of their clothes.
It's just that the weather is too sultry, even if you reduce the clothes on your body as much as possible, the sweat on your body still keeps flowing out, and everyone's clothes are covered with circles of white marks.
This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that many people who build roads have become a little overwhelmed.
In this case, several donkey carts with two wheels drove towards this side along the already constructed road.
On the front donkey cart, there was a blue bird flag.
"The tribe is here! The tribe is here!"
Even in such weather, after seeing the flying green bird flag and the people driving the donkey cart, these road builders couldn't help but cheered.
"The Son of God knows that you are too hot to eat, so we bring delicious food!"
As soon as the driver met the road builder who was cheering and greeted him, he announced such good news with joy.
After saying this, everyone who was already a little excited became even more excited.
"What delicious food? We don't want to eat hot food anymore..."
Someone asked.
"Wait, you will know, this kind of food, you don't have enough to keep it!"
The man said with a mysterious and proud face, and he was actually sold out.
Then began to carry the things pulled on the donkey cart down.
The first to be removed was a set of stone mills.
This kind of stone mill is different from the first stone mill made in the tribe. The bottom stone mill and the surrounding gully used to pick up the ground soy milk are made of the same piece of granite.
Such a stone mill is easy to move.
After the stone mill was removed, the two tanks were soaked in water from the start.
There are three bags of dried peas and some other food.
Several people found stones and other things, set up a table under a shade of trees on the side of the road, and then put a movable stone mill on it. After placing it firmly, they began to scoop the soaked peas into the mill eye. Inside, began to grind peas in circles.
The people in the road construction team are looking at this side expectantly while building the road, waiting for the new food delivered by the gods...
"delicious!"
"Anything else? One more bowl..."
When the jelly was made, someone used a bronze scraper to scrape it into the bowl, prepared it, and announced that it was ready to eat. In this open-air cafeteria, there was a sound of snoring and drinking jelly. , And mixed with people's vague admiration.
The people from the tribe are right. This is indeed a good food that can make people appetite in such weather!
"Hiccup~"
After a full hiccup with Big Feet, he licked the corner of his mouth again, lowered three bowls of jelly, and felt that the pores all over his body opened comfortably.
Looking at the bags of raw peas in animal skin pockets, Bigfoot shook his head with regret.
Bigfoot is a slave from a semi-agricultural tribe. Shaking his head at the moment is not because he thinks the jelly made from peas is not good, but because he remembers the past.
Before his original tribe was broken, the current tribe didn't have this kind of food that God's son called pea.
However, after this peas arrived in this tribe, under the leadership of the son, not only did they grow stronger than in their tribe, but they also used it to make such delicious food!
Even if I have seen how the people in the tribe use raw peas to make delicious appetizing jelly that makes people not enough to eat, Bigfoot still can't believe it.
You know, their tribe has owned and cultivated this kind of food for many years. Except for adding water and boiling it in a crock pot, there is no other way to eat it.
But today’s tribe has used it to produce jelly that is not only good-looking, but also delicious...
Not only this one thought, but the rest of the former semi-agricultural tribes were basically the same at this time.
In such a comparison, not only the idea that the original tribe is far inferior to the current tribe, but also the admiration for the son of God and the recognition of the tribe today...
After the delicious and refreshing jelly was eaten, the people on the road construction team took a short rest and started to build the road with great enthusiasm.
The son of God didn't forget them, and he got some delicious food, and he was pulled such a long distance from the tribe with a donkey cart and made it for them.
Under such circumstances, what reason do they have not to build roads properly?
The dull weather can't stop everyone from working hard to build roads...
Within the Qingque tribe, Han Cheng didn't feel happy for long after getting the good food for this summer jelly, and he was affected again.
It's not because the jelly is lacking in various seasonings and not enough flavor, but because there is a problem with the rattan in the tribe!
Naturally, the lame craftsmanship has nothing to say. The rest of the tribe who followed lame craftsmanship also did not learn to cut corners, which is the ‘noble’ quality.
The quality problem of the rattan armour in the tribe has nothing to do with their craftsmanship, but a problem with the later maintenance.
The rattan armor is different from the rattan shield in the tribe. The rattan shield is usually only held during training or when a few go out to fight, while the rattan armor is basically in accordance with the regulations when the road construction team starts to build the road. Everyone must wear it.
This is to prevent some accidents when building roads, the order issued by Han Cheng.
The people in the tribe naturally obeyed Han Cheng's orders, and almost no one took them off except when the heat couldn't stand it.
In this way, under the conditions of wind and sun all day long and some dew from time to time, these rattan armors that are often worn by people gradually have problems.
Compared with the time when they were newly compiled, these vine armors have slowly begun to fade.
This is not the most serious place, the most serious place is the edge of the cane.
When weaving rattan armor with rattan, the edge area needs to be folded in half.
In this process, many rattans will be twisted and split.
The cracked rattan not only loses the protection of the bark, but also a rattan is divided into several parts. The firmness and toughness of the rattan will not be affected in normal days, but the ability to resist corrosion can be greatly reduced.
In summer, wind and sun, coupled with humid air, and perspiration, these places are easily corroded.
Looking at the edge of his hand, there were already two rattans that had deteriorated, and the rattan armor that broke after a few hard buckles with his nails, Han Cheng's eyebrows were a little twisted.
Limp said to the side that he could repair the damaged vine armor.
After Han Cheng shook his head, he did not agree.
Han Cheng knew how to repair the rattan armour, which was to take out part of the broken rattan and replace it with a new rattan.
This kind of rattan that was later filled in is naturally not as strong as the previous kind that was directly woven into it.
The reason for this is second. The most important thing is that Han Cheng feels that this is too much trouble.
The use period of the rattan armour is too short, quality problems will appear in half a year, and various repairs will be needed later, which is really bad.
If the quality problem occurs again in the last two or three years, this is still within the acceptable range of Han Cheng, but now it is only half a year...
The rattan armours in the tribe will grow to hundreds of pairs later. If you don’t want to solve them fundamentally, then there will be more trouble later, almost you have to arrange a special person to repair the rattan armour...
Han Cheng knew how to make the rattan armour stronger and more resistant to corrosion, because in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Mr. Kong Ming wrote it out when he burned the Nanban rattan armour.
That is to soak the woven rattan armour with oil, then dry it, and then continue to soak and dry it.
The rattan armour made by this method will become extremely tough, resistant to cutting with knives and axes, not to mention rain, because when water falls on it, it will become water droplets and fall to the ground. Can't adsorb
Moreover, the buoyancy of the rattan armor produced by this method is not small, and it can be used as a life jacket at critical moments.
The only drawback is the fear of fire.
However, it is not easy to burn the vine armor army with torch, you need to push the vine armor army into desperation first.
From this point of view, this kind of vine armor is indeed very suitable for the current blue bird tribe.
It’s just that it’s impossible to know the solution, because there is no oil in the tribe.
If there is oil, Han Chengcheng had already started to deal with the vine armor when the vine armor was manufactured.
The oil used to soak the vine beetle is not ordinary cooking oil, but tung oil.
Tung oil is squeezed out from the fruit of the tung oil tree. Even in later generations, it is also an important industrial oil.
In the past few years, the Qingque tribe and the other tribes have never stopped using new seeds and stones in exchange for salt and pottery. However, Han Cheng has not found the shadow of tung oil eggs in these fruits. .
Han Cheng is no stranger to the tung oil tree and the tung oil tree's fruit ‘tung oil eggs’, because they have planted tung oil trees more than once on the hillsides.
However, most of the tung oil trees have not grown.
Because within two years, these trees will be planed off, and then the rest of the trees will be replanted.
In Han Cheng's impression, gardenia, tung oil, jujube, pear, and chestnut trees have been planted one after another.
Would you like to try without fatty oil?
Without tung oil, Han Cheng could only put his idea on fatty oil.
Although I know that it won't happen in all likelihood, if you can't get tung oil, you can only try this way.
After all, fatty oil also carries the word ‘oil’ in it. What if it becomes beautiful?
So, in the next, the son of Han Dao did something that made many people in the tribe feel distressed, that is, a brush made of wild boar hair from the semi-solidified fatty oil, and then brushed on the vine armor. .
After asking the child, I learned that this is to make the vine armor more durable.
The second brother stared at the greasy vine armor, and couldn't help swallowing.
The second brother did not believe that the application of grease might make the vine armor stronger, because he felt that he could eat the vine armor that was coated with grease!
After applying grease to the vine armor and then drying it under the sun, Han Cheng stopped after a few days.
This is not only because the effect is not good, but also because it is easy to attract flies, and more importantly, it is very expensive to do so!
Animal fatty oil is the only edible oil in the tribe and has a high status in the tribe.
If you want to get fatty oil, you must kill the animals, and then put the fat part into a clay pot for smelting.
But at this time, it is possible to feed all kinds of animals to raise pigs. The blue sparrow tribe has not yet, and often after slaughtering an animal, it does not get much fat.
In addition to eating, these fatty oils have another use, that is, they are boiled and mixed with plant ash to make soap.
This thing also consumes fatty oil very much.
Under such circumstances, even if the fatty oil really has a very good effect on the vine armor, Han Cheng cannot choose to use it too much to brush the vine armor, because this is too prodigal!
It is simply the first prodigal son of the Qingque tribe!
Under such circumstances, it is better to arrange a person directly to do the weaving and repair of rattan armour.
After tossing around in this way, he returned to the original point again. The damaged vine armor was still let Lie take it for repairs. This made Han Cheng quite depressed.
But depressed is depressed. Under such circumstances, Han Cheng has no other way to think about other than depressed. He can only continue to be depressed until he is not depressed...
When Han Cheng was depressed by the fact that the vine armor was soaked in oil, something went wrong with the road construction team of the Qingque tribe working in the front!
A modest autumn rain fell, and the autumn tiger that continued to show off was driven away.
One autumn rain and one cold sentence are not false at all.
It used to be very sultry, but after the autumn rain fell, it suddenly became cooler.
This makes these people who are building roads in front of them often breathe a sigh of relief and feel that they are happy all over.
Qiu Yu was struggling, and there was no way to work on road construction for the time being. The tired road construction team ushered in a rare leisure time.
Most of the people in the road construction team stayed in the semi-burrowing round houses that were temporarily built and used as work sheds. Taking advantage of this rare opportunity to make up for the rest, let the tired body get a good rest.
But there is never a shortage of energetic people in this world, such as Bigfoot and the other two people.
When the rest of the people were resting, they were dressed in fur clothes and hats and went out of the makeshift shed together.
Autumn is here, and many of the fruits are already ripe. Some of the fruits are sour and sweet. They want to find some fruits to eat this time.
People are omnivores. If you only eat one kind of food, you will get tired after a long time, and you want to find other foods to change your taste.
One of the people who went out with Bigfoot was a slave of the semi-agricultural tribe, and the other was a citizen of the Qingque tribe.
Unlike the tense opposition between ordinary slave owners and the slave class, under Han Cheng's conscious adjustment, this opposition between the Qingque tribe is not obvious.
On the contrary, the relationship between the two classes is quite harmonious.
This can be seen from the fact that a citizen, two slaves, and the three of them are looking for fruit together.
However, the luck of these three people today is not very good, because around this temporary residence, there are not many fruit trees growing.
They searched for a while, but they didn't find a few, and they couldn't find a small pocket full.
Under such circumstances, the three big feet began to move away from their residence...
"go back!"
After walking and searching for a while, there was still not much gain. The citizen of the Qingque tribe looked back, and the shadow of the temporary residence was no longer visible between the layers.
This person recalled the distance he and others had traveled, and then looked at the surrounding environment, and suddenly there was a wave of fear.
Immediately he greeted the two people to go back with him and stop looking for fruit.
As soon as his words were uttered, Bigfoot walking in the front left shouted in surprise.
"Fruit! Fruit! A lot!"
He held a tree that was not thick with one hand, and pointed at the sunken area in front of him, turned his head to the citizen of the Qingque tribe and another slave, and shouted in surprise.
The two people who had already wanted to go back, after hearing Bigfoot's call, temporarily lost their thoughts of going back.
After all, they came out on this trip, but there was no gain, and it made people feel a little unhappy.
At this time, I heard that there were so many fruits in front of me, so I had to go over and take a look.
The two came to Bigfoot in tandem, stretched their heads and looked forward.
Here is a relatively steep slope, surrounded by fallen leaves and vegetation, with many dark brown round fruits falling.
Not small, bigger than the fist of a four-year-old.
And many of the fruits that fell on the ground have cracked, and the exposed kernels are very similar to chestnuts with thorny shells removed.
Seeing this scene, the two people who rushed over suddenly became excited!
The fruit in this kind of fruit looks like a chestnut, so the taste should be similar.
Chestnuts, acorns, and pecans are foods that people of this age like to collect and store most in autumn.
Because these foods are very storage-stable, they taste good, and they are very hungry.
At this time, seeing so many chestnut-like fruits at once, it would be strange if they were not excited!
At the moment, the three people dragged the trees down this not too steep slope, and were very happy to pick up the fruit in the bag they carried.
It didn't take too long to fill the three bags with him.
Without the bags to hold things, the three of them can only stand here with regret looking at the fruits.
After resting for a while, Bigfoot found the stone, picked up a fruit from the ground and smashed it open.
After smashing it, it will be delivered to the mouth.
"Don't eat!"
The citizen of the Qingque tribe opened his mouth and stopped him.
On the one hand, when collecting food in tribes, most of them follow the principle of handing in the food and then redistributing it. Eating food privately on the way to get food is generally not allowed.
On the other hand, the fruit they found today is something they have never seen before. Although it is very similar to chestnut, it is not a real chestnut.
Faced with this kind of uneaten food, it is best not to eat it lightly.
This is the recognition that the people in the tribe, who had paid the price of their lives in the past, became stronger after being strengthened by Han Cheng.
The chestnuts were not eaten less before they were too big, and they were burned in a fire to make them more delicious.
He felt that this kind of fruit that looked like a chestnut would not be dangerous after eating it.
But after hearing the stop, after thinking about it, I still didn't eat.
A few people stayed here for a while, carrying these fruits, excitedly climbed this not too steep slope, and then all the way towards the temporary residential area...
"so much?!"
Just like Bigfoot and the others thought ~EbookFREE.me~ When the three of them returned to the temporary residential area with so many fruits, the three bags full of fruits immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Even a lot of those who slept didn't sleep anymore, and asked Bigfoot where they picked up so many fruits, there are not many there, and they are going to pick them up too.
When everyone was extremely excited, the citizen of the Qingque tribe who followed said something that this kind of fruit had not eaten.
The person who led the road construction team here was the original Green Tribe leader Gu. After hearing about this, he took a closer look at the many fruits and found that this kind of fruit looks like a chestnut. Like, but it is not chestnut.
Of course, this new food cannot be eaten directly on a large scale, it needs someone to try it.
He just expressed this meaning, his big feet jumped out, and he patted his chest to show that he was willing to try it.
This is because he stubbornly believes that this kind of fruit that looks very similar to chestnuts will definitely be as delicious as chestnuts, even if it is not as delicious as chestnuts, it will not be poisonous.
On the other hand, Bigfoot wants to contribute to the tribe as soon as possible, and then become a citizen of the tribe.
Not long after joining the tribe, he was deeply impressed by the ceremony that the son of God personally presided over the dissolution of slavery and the granting of a citizenship card.
And as the longer he lived in the tribe, the more he recognized the Qingque tribe, and the more he wanted to join the Qingque tribe, become a citizen of the tribe, and bring his own ID card with him!
There is such a fearless person who is willing to try it, of course Gu agreed, but before Bigfoot tried it, under the prompt of the old man from the Qingque tribe, someone prepared something tasty outside...
