Because when the tribe first became prosperous, the first food they got was fish. In addition, the tribe now has its own fish ponds, rivers, and even a super large fish pond and wild duck lake. Therefore, the people in the tribe are very concerned about fish.
Not unfamiliar at all.
Especially veteran Qingque tribe aborigines like Lai, they don't know how much fish they eat.
They have seen and eaten a lot of fish, and they all know very well what fish look like.
But at this time, they all gathered together and looked at the fish that was caught and put in the basin seriously.
They all stared at each other, like a group of rustics who had never seen the world.
The fish in the basin was extremely frightened.
It has seen many humans before, and has never taken these humans seriously.
Because it was in the pond at that time, it thought that it had a vast world. It only needed to swim in the water or dive under the water, and there was no need to worry about what these guys who couldn't get into the water would do to it.
This is true even if I blow bubbles at them.
But it didn't work now. Now I was actually caught, and the big pond turned into such a small pond. There are no such things as stones in the water, and there is no mud at the bottom.
I tried so hard to dive, but my chin was almost knocked out of place by this hard thing, but there was no result at all...
Isn't this even more terrifying? What's even more terrifying is that these horrible perverts would extend their sinful fingers to themselves from time to time, poking at their foreheads or other places to prevent themselves from letting themselves go.
quiet.
The fish, which was poked by this damn man with his fingers and ran back and forth in the water for a long time, felt pain all over his body, spat out a series of bubbles in fear at the evil man.
It can't speak. If it could speak human words, it would definitely be unable to help but accuse these people with blood and tears at this time——
Pretty?
Pretty?
Am I pretty?
You guys keep poking at me...
Soon, the frightened fish was not the only one.
Several other fish of different species were fished out and placed in several pots. Like the fish that was fished out at the beginning, they were watched by evil humans and touched by evil fingers.
"... Generally, fish that are relatively slender, have a short body, and have a big tail can turn more dexterously..."
"The fish's tail is still in the middle of the fish's body..."
"The tails of fish are thin and wide, much smaller than their heads..."
After some careful observation and no one knew how many times they had extended evil hands to these poor fish, under the organization of Han Cheng, the people involved in the shipbuilding began to talk about their observations from just now.
Something must come out of it.
After talking like this for a while, after no one could say anything, Ling, the chief engineer of the shipbuilding company, began to summarize these things.
After summarizing these things obtained from the fish, Lai and others basically had a good idea of what the Son of God called the rudder, which they had never seen before.
Not to say it is particularly clear, but there are ideas on how to do it and how to install it.
In order to be as accurate as possible, everyone in the tribe, after finishing these things, looked at the fish separately, poked them with their fingers, and then got together to do some things.
After some discussion, it was finally determined that nothing could be obtained from these fish for the time being, so they let these poor fish go and started to make a rudder that could turn the sailboat.
Of course, these fish reliefs are accompanied by the aroma of food.
The reason why they were not put back into the pond was because they had been taken out of the pond for so long, and in the process, many of their scales had fallen off.
Some of those who couldn't bear the torture have developed new skills and began to swim sideways or backstroke with their white bellies turned over.
Under such circumstances, even if they were put back into the pond, they would probably not survive.
In order to avoid waste, we can only give them another form of freedom and relief.
As for the fact that the finished rudder is not easy to use, and then we look for fish to observe, and the fish that were initially observed cannot be found, the people in the tribe don't have to worry at all.
Because in their eyes, people all look the same, in the eyes of humans, fish of the same species all look the same.
The only difference is the size, fat and thin...
When the time comes, just catch some from the pond or river...
The carpenter's room became lively again.
People involved in shipbuilding gathered together and were busy here based on their latest results.
Everyone's interest was very high.
Because the method this time was inspired by the Son of God, and everyone came up with it by observing the fish that can move flexibly in the water.
In this process, everyone is involved.
Moreover, everyone is also eager to know whether this method of applying the inspiration gained by observing animals to the tool making of their own tribe can be used.
If it is really proven to be useful, then there is no doubt that a new and extremely wide door will be opened to them!
Inspired by this incident, their thinking will become broader and their vision will become more long-term.
It will be moved from a narrow, fixed place to more places.
Once something like this happens, it will naturally bring a lot of benefits to the Qingque Tribe!
This will promote the development of Qingque Tribe and make Qingque Tribe better.
A pioneer named Ma once said that hand-mills brought about a society of feudal lords, while steam mills brought about a society of industrial capitalists.
This sentence can reveal to a large extent how important tools, or the science behind these tools, play in the progress of human society.
As far as Han Cheng knew, even in the later generations where technology was already very advanced, he had always observed creatures and finally obtained inspiration from them, and finally came up with all kinds of strange and high-end things.
It is happening and will continue to happen.
Looking at the tribal carpenters in the carpentry room who were busy at work with their faces shining brightly, Han Cheng couldn't help but smile.
Before this matter started, he only thought of using this method to solve the problems encountered by the tribe in making sailboats.
But now it seems that in addition to solving this problem, the people of their own tribe will get bigger, more, and better things...
The sun disappears on the horizon.
Although the earth is still dreary without the sun shining on it, it feels much better. At least there is no longer the burning sensation of the sun shining directly on the body.
The sun disappeared and dusk fell. Not only did the tribe not become quiet, but it also became more lively...
The Qingque Tribe at night is probably the most comfortable time during the busy farming season.
The weather is much cooler and everyone is relatively relaxed.
The sky is full of stars embedded in the deep night sky, and a wide luminous belt stretches across the sky, which is particularly beautiful.
In the distance outside the courtyard, the sound of beating gongs could be heard, and little bits of firelight were flashing.
This is the night watchman of the tribe, inspecting the threshing floor in the distance and the unharvested millet fields, worried that something will come and destroy the precious food of the tribe.
Little bits of fire were shining, and sometimes it was hard to tell whether it was the stars in the sky or the fire on the ground.
In the courtyard of the tribe, many people were sleeping, enjoying the coolness of the night.
Some adults also held fans made of wide grass blades or large leaves after shelling bamboo shoots. They lay there and swayed slowly, fanning the wind for themselves and the children sleeping next to them, and carried them along.
Get rid of those unpleasant mosquitoes.
After washing, people lay here and felt extremely comfortable.
The Qingque Lord tribe was quiet at night, just like this peaceful night.
However, there is still a light on in one place.
This is the carpenter's room of the Qingque tribe.
Under the light of the fire, many people were busy in the carpenter's room.
Lame and everyone else involved in the shipbuilding were there.
As everyone was busy, something appeared in front of everyone at this time.
This thing has a rather strange style and is divided into two parts.
On top is a long wooden handle.
The lower end of the wooden handle is equipped with something made of wood.
The shape of this thing is a big fish tail.
This is the rudder they made.
The sailboat that was carried to the river for experiments for a long time yesterday was once again carried to the courtyard of the carpenter's room.
At this time, a wooden pillar had been installed directly behind the stern of the ship.
There was also a hole made on the wooden pillar, from front to back.
I stood here lamely, bending over and looking at this fish-tail-shaped thing carefully.
After seeing that there was nothing wrong with it, I picked it up and installed it on the stern of the boat.
The handle of the rudder was stuck in the groove of the wooden post installed at the stern. It was moved up and down for a while, the position was adjusted, and a mark was made with a charcoal pencil. Then it was removed, and then someone started drilling with a hand drill.
hole.
After the hole is drilled, clamp the rudder into the wooden post again, align the hole on the wooden post with the hole on the rudder, and thread it through with an iron rod.
The gap on the wooden post is very large, much wider than the wooden handle, and there is still a lot of space left and right when it is stuck inside.
This was left out intentionally.
In this case, the rudder is stuck inside and has a lot of room for movement.
After putting it on, he thought about it for a moment, then climbed onto the sailboat with the help of a stool. He stood on it and held the handle of the rudder with his hands and shook it back and forth for a while to feel it.
As he rocked, the rudder, which looked like a fish's tail, also swung from side to side.
After feeling it for a while, he lamely shook his head.
He felt that the swing range of the tail under the rudder was still too small.
When they observed the fish today, they found that when the fish turned, especially when it turned around, its tails were bent a lot.
The amplitude of the swing can exceed the head of the fish in front.
But now, the swing of the rudder obviously cannot exceed the widest point of the hull.
Lame stood here and watched for a while, then he pulled out the iron rod, removed the rudder, and found tools to thicken the hole on the rudder again.
And let people widen the gap in the wooden pillar again without affecting the solidity of the wooden pillar at the stern.
After a while of knocking, I rested it and put it together again.
I boarded the sailboat again, stood on it, held the tiller of the rudder and swung it from side to side, and carefully observed the swing amplitude of the rudder tail.
Compared with before the break, the swing range is much larger.
But after looking at it for a while, I still wasn’t very satisfied.
But at this time, neither the opening on the tiller nor the opening on the stern of the wooden pillar used to fix the rudder can be enlarged or thickened, otherwise it will affect the
their sturdiness.
Lai stared at the connection between the rudder and the wooden pillar, falling into deep thought...
The night was already deep. Han Cheng, who was lying under the gourd shed, turned to look at the lights still on in the carpenter's room and shook his head helplessly.
He put down the fan he was holding, then quietly got out of the bed, put on his shoes, walked around the bed next to where Bai Xuemei, Xiao Xing'er and the youngest son were sleeping, and headed towards the brightly lit carpenter's room.
Go.
These people really work too hard to do things, and they always want to finish the work as soon as possible.
"Stop it, go to bed early. No matter how much is left, leave it to tomorrow! The work cannot be done in one day. The days will be long in the future. If you can't finish it in one day, just do it in two days. If you can't finish it in two days,
Just three days to complete.
Otherwise, if it goes on for such a long time, it won’t be worth the pain.”
After Han Cheng came here, he looked at the people in the carpenter's room and said this.
"Son of God, it will be done after a while."
After hearing what Han Cheng said, Lai said to Han Cheng with a smile.
"No, don't do it, put it down and go back to sleep."
Han Cheng shook his head and refused directly, not giving Lame any chance to be accommodating.
"The sailboat is just a relatively important thing. In addition to the sailboat, the tribe will continue to make other things in the future. I will be very busy in the future. Only by taking good care of yourself can I be able to make things for the tribe in the future.
Bigger, more contributions…”
After Han Cheng thought for a while, he added.
Under Han Cheng's tough attitude, the lights in the carpenter's room were extinguished, and everyone left. After washing with water a little, they went back to their respective sleeping places to sleep.
Although the work was stopped by the Son of God, everyone felt warm in their hearts...
The night became quiet again, punctuated by snoring.
I don’t know how long it took, but someone quietly got up and walked towards the carpenter’s room...
