Chapter 347 Unified Weights and Measures

The scorching sun sets on the other side of the mountain, and red clouds rise in the sky. Birds that are happy for some reason are chirping.

The heat dissipates and the coolness rises.

The leader of the green tribe was walking with a dull expression on his back carrying some pottery.

Not only him, but also the others who followed him were similar.

Before they came, they had imagined more than once the scene of walking back carrying pottery they had exchanged for weeds.

It must be laughter and joy along the way.

However, now, they have successfully exchanged the weeds for pottery, but there is no laughter as they imagined.

The reason for such a big change was what I saw in that tribe.

Thinking of the scene he saw, the leader of the Green Tribe felt that his heart was severely blocked, and his mind was also dizzy, as if he was in a dream.

It’s not that he doesn’t have a strong endurance, it’s that the scene was too unbelievable!

Weed seeds!

There are weed seeds everywhere!

I don’t know how many more weed seeds than what I and others brought here!

No wonder they laughed after hearing what they said.

After seeing this scene, the leader of the Green Tribe also smiled, but it was a forced smile, and his face was still a little feverish.

God knows where this tribe got so many weed seeds!

Is this tribe really a tribe blessed by the gods?

They always seem to have tons of amazing stuff, and it's always refreshing every time you go.

And they seem to be able to get everything they want, and in such large quantities that people look up to them...

After thinking about this for a while, watching the dusk gradually fall, the leader of the green tribe stopped first and decided to rest in this open area.

Someone took out something for drilling wood to make a fire, and it took a lot of effort to make a fire.

They used this fire to grill food and keep them warm.

The leader of the green tribe filled a bowl of water with a pottery bowl and drank it, feeling calmer.

This bowl was exchanged from that tribe today, along with a large vat and other bowls.

What he got in exchange was pretty much what he had expected, and there was even an extra bowl.

Regarding this result, he also felt unbelievable at first.

It was like he suddenly had a lot of weed seeds for that tribe.

After seeing so many weed seeds drying on the ground and recovering from the shock, what the leader of the Green Tribe thought about was that he was going to return empty-handed this time.

After all, this tribe already has so many wild grass seeds, why would they use precious pottery to trade with themselves?

Even if they knew how to trade, the pottery they could exchange for would be greatly reduced.

He was deeply aware of the treachery of that tribal leader.

When the leader of the green tribe said that he wanted to exchange these weed spikes for pottery, the leader of the tribe, just as he thought, only took out a few bowls and not even a larger pottery.

The leader of the green tribe felt that it was reasonable, but also felt angry and disappointed.

In order to collect these weeds, the tribesmen put in a lot of work and even gave up the opportunity to go hunting for two days.

Before arriving, everyone, including him, was excited and looking forward to the grand occasion of everyone having a pottery bowl, but now,...

The leader of the green tribe took a sip of water again, looked at the pottery bowls and large vats in front of him, and let out a beautiful sigh.

A figure appeared in his mind, and this figure was the man from that tribe, known as the Son of God.

The leader of that tribe has clearly expressed his intention to carry these weeds back with him if he doesn't want to change.

People under the eaves have to bow their heads.

In such a situation, the leader of the green tribe had to hold his nose and admit it, no matter how reluctant he was.

Because if they don't agree, they won't be able to take back a single pottery bowl.

He could only return to the tribe carrying the unpalatable weeds on his back.

It was at this time that the Son of God of that tribe appeared. He stopped the tribal leader's actions and gave him the pottery he expected to exchange...

In the past, he thought this guy called the Son of God was stupid, but now he no longer thinks so.

He admired the minor who was called the Son of God from the bottom of his heart.

Not only him, but the other Green Tribe people who saw this also admired the Son of God of that tribe.

If you think about it carefully, if the two parties exchange positions, under the same circumstances, they will never be able to achieve the level of each other...

This is of course a scene that Han Cheng and his senior brother colluded in advance.

Since it is a drama, it needs to have villains and heroes. Without villains, how can we set off the majestic image of heroes?

How can the Green Tribe feel that they have received a great favor from the Qingque Tribe this time?

Recalling the various performances of the leader of the Green Tribe, the three giants of the Qingque Tribe gathered together and showed smiles of success.

Among them, Han Cheng, the mastermind, laughed the most treacherously and obscenely.

The Qingque tribe's current foreign policy is basically a combination of kindness and power.

The biggest purpose of doing this is to make the integration of these tribes smoother in the future...

The second threshing of millet was also finished, and the second time we got a total of one hundred and ninety-eight jins of millet.

Don't doubt why Han Cheng knows such accuracy, because he has already taken out the scale.

A smooth stick, a hook for catching things, as well as a rope and a weight for lifting.

The structure of a scale is very simple. Modern people who have seen a scale can make such a thing as long as they spend some effort.

The difficulty in making a scale is not these structures, but how to carve an accurate crosshair on the support pole.

In order to find the scale's crosshair, Han Cheng spent a lot of effort.

After much thought, I decided to adopt a similar approach to the original ruler.

First find a relatively neat stone, hold it in your hand and estimate that it is about the same size as a pound in later generations, and use it as a standard for a pound.

Then tie the stone with a rope and hang it on the scale hook. Pick up the rope on the scale with one hand and lift the stone off the ground.

The other hand moves the rope hanging on the scale beam.

After moving the scale hammer to the position where the scale beams become parallel, use an iron knife to carve a mark here. This is the position of one pound.

Then use this standard of one pound to weigh out many small bags containing one pound of sand.

Hang it on the scale hook together with the original standard stone, and you can get the scale of two kilograms, three kilograms, four kilograms...

After the scale was completed, the stone that served as the benchmark was placed together with the 'standard' ten centimeter wooden stick, and was solemnly preserved by Han Cheng.

As long as you can ensure that these two standard things are not lost, the length and weight you create will not be messy.

It is very necessary to set a standard for weight and length, which are things that we come into contact with every day.
