After the first successful example, it becomes easier to build subsequent ladders.
Considering the speed at which people in the tribe climbed up the wall when the enemy attacked, Han Cheng felt it was necessary to make more ladders.
So within two days, five ladders were placed behind the new tall west wall of the tribe.
The more traditional ladders of later generations, such as wooden ladders and bamboo ladders, were not made this way. The main difference was in the installation of the horizontal bars.
The wooden ladders and bamboo ladders of later generations were made by digging holes into two pillars, and then smashing the crossbars into the holes. The ladders made in this way were far beyond Han Cheng's creation, both in terms of beauty and sturdiness.
A crudely made ladder can be compared.
Considering that wooden ladders are easily damaged by exposure to wind and sun all year round, especially the ropes that bind the horizontal bars, Han Cheng wanted to make a traditional wooden ladder after making a simple wooden ladder.
If you want to make a traditional wooden ladder, there is a difficulty that must be overcome. This difficulty is to make holes in the wood.
In later generations, it was easier to make holes because there were sharp chisels specially used for digging holes.
Now, without suitable tools, Han Cheng could only frown and meditate when faced with this technical problem.
Han Cheng thought of the hand drill that he had successfully made before. After trying it many times, he had to shake his head and give up this method.
The hand drill can be used to drill some small holes, but once the hole required is too big, the hand drill is useless.
This is not something that can be accomplished by just changing to a larger drill bit.
Stone is a good thing, especially for primitive people and Han Cheng who cannot refine copper, iron and other metals.
After the manual drilling failed, Han Cheng turned his attention to stones.
Since stone knives and stone axes can be made from stone, there is no reason why stone chisels cannot be made.
Just as he was told, Han Cheng asked the people in the tribe to use the hard stone used to make stone knives to make stone chisels according to his requirements.
The shape of the stone chisel is also simple, it is just a round or flat elongated stone pillar. Knock one end off bit by bit. After knocking out a rough cutting edge, it is then placed on a big stone and polished while sprinkling water.
It makes sense to sprinkle water when grinding. The most important thing is of course not to prevent dust and cool down, but that the water can wash away the stone foam and allow the stone used as a whetstone to maintain friction.
The making of stone tools is a time-consuming task. This stone chisel was made by the hand of the tribe who is better at making stone tools. It only took three days to complete.
This piece of wood is not that piece of wood. This piece of wood is an adult man from the Qingque tribe.
He originally lived in the Qingque Tribe. Before the people from the Pig Tribe joined, his personal strength ranked fifth to seventh in the Qingque Tribe.
The reason why he is called Mumu is actually very simple. It is because he doesn't like to talk very much and always looks like a Mumu.
However, although wood is wood, when it comes to making stone tools, the Qingque tribe's wood technology is definitely second to none, and the same is true for the Pig tribe who joined later.
This may be related to his rather clumsy personality, and the fact that the making of stone tools requires patience and continuous polishing.
So, in fact, everyone has their own shining points. The reason why they feel inferior to others is because they only see the dazzling aspects of others and do not find anything suitable for their own strengths.
Things are not absolute and can be transformed under specific circumstances.
Just like a piece of wood that can't be beaten with three sticks, if he is asked to do transactions, he will naturally be taken advantage of. But when he meets stone tools, he can do things that are difficult for others to achieve.
"Dudududu!"
While other people in the Qingque tribe were busy raising walls or harvesting grass, Han Cheng, the Son of God, was also not idle. He held a stone chisel made of wood in one hand and a piece of wood in the other.
Hit the top of the stone chisel.
As he struck, wood chips were scooped up by the stone chisel from the big log on the ground.
The reason why the stone chisel is struck with wood instead of harder stone is because the wood can protect the stone chisel from damage.
"Dudududu"
Han Cheng placed the stone chisel diagonally on the wooden pillar and then struck it. It can be seen that a roughly square pit with a depth of two centimeters has appeared on the wooden pillar.
"Alas~"
Han Cheng hammered for a while, put down the stone chisel and the wooden stick in his hand, stretched his tired hands, and sighed.
The stone chisel is still not good and not sharp enough. It was okay at the beginning, but as the depth of the hole increased, the efficiency began to plummet.
This incident made Han Cheng full of melancholy. He just wanted to make some holes in the wood, why was it so difficult?
Mu Mu saw Han Cheng throwing the stone chisel on the ground, with a frown on his face and a sad look on his face. He thought that the Son of God disliked the thing he had polished, and did not say anything. He went over to pick up the stone chisel that Han Cheng had placed on the ground, and then removed the stone.
Grind on top.
Han Cheng looked at the wood on which the stone chisels were carefully polished. He felt a little warm and sighed secretly. Stone, even if it is polished to the extreme, is not as good as steel.
Of course, except for a diamond that will go bankrupt.
Han Cheng looked at the wood and thought hard. He kept digging with a stone chisel, and finally he was able to carve out the eye. But this was not what he wanted because it took too long. He might as well just make a simple ladder tied with a rope.
.
Dusk fell, and the Qingque tribe quieted down after a tiring day. The night was quiet, snoring could be heard in the cave, and a faint firelight swayed.
The shadow of the old primitive man tending the flames was cast on the mountain wall, making him look particularly tall.
Han Cheng turned over, lying on his side and looked towards the cave entrance, looking at the blurry and quiet cave, which was very different from the daytime.
The sound of him turning over woke up Fu Jiang, who was lying at his feet. Fu Jiang raised his head and looked around cautiously. Seeing that there was nothing unusual, he lowered his head again, burying his nose under his tail, and continued his sweet dream.
Got it!
An idea suddenly appeared in his mind, which made him feel happy. All the irritability suddenly disappeared, and his whole body became sober.
fire!
He looked at the weak dancing flame with burning eyes.
Water and fire have the most powerful effects, how could I have forgotten them?!
He was thinking about using fire to open the eyes, and he didn't fall asleep until very late.
Han Cheng got up early the next morning, washed and exercised a little, and then began to carry out his plan to open his eyes.
Han Cheng was thinking about getting the mao eye, not just for the ladder. Like the hand drill he got before, it was also to lay the foundation for the future.
In ancient times, when iron nails were not common, carpenters, bamboo craftsmen, etc. used to make various utensils, and the method used to connect them was mao.
This seemingly inconspicuous hole actually has extraordinary significance in the manufacture of utensils.
(I have something to do today, so the update is late, sorry)
