Chapter 380: Deer Pulling Sledge (Packing Chicken Wings for Rice
The method of clearing the snow that Shang mentioned is a good method, but it is still a bit too difficult to transport it.
Too many hands were used to transport the stones.
According to that progress, by the time the bathroom is completed, it will almost be Chinese New Year.
Seeing that this proposal was rejected by the Son of God, Shang and others were helpless. Clearing the snow and then transporting the stones was the best solution they could think of.
If this method is not recognized, what other method can be used?
You can't let the stone grow its own legs and walk from the quarry to their tribe, right?
However, what surprised them was that the Son of God really came up with a unique solution.
The focus of this method still falls on the group of deer in the tribe.
Deep snow should not be the main reason for hindering traffic.
It makes no sense that the old man in red clothes with a white beard can use two deer to pull a sled to run back and forth to deliver gifts to people, but his own tribe cannot use a deer-pulled sledge to transport stones.
The second most powerful stickman in the tribe is here, the senior brother who is the leader is here, the second senior brother who has lost weight is here, the first carpenter of the Qingque tribe is here... Several houses are already full of people, and the houses are full of people.
There were many people standing on tiptoes outside, looking inside.
This was the result of the news that the Son of God was preparing to create something that could glide on the snow and transport a lot of stones at once without much effort spread among the tribe.
Everyone wanted to see how the Son of God created such an unimaginable thing.
Following the Son of God to see strange things has become a custom among the Qingque tribe.
Han Cheng looked at the solemn expression on his face holding the ax in his hand, with a hint of excitement, and knew that no one else would spread the news except him.
Han Cheng shook his head and laughed without any trace. This guy is getting more and more stinky now.
After waiting like this for a while, Han Cheng saw that there were too many people in the room, and the space that was not too big was occupied, and he could no longer carry out the work of making sledges.
So he sent a message to people not to stay in the house, and to make room for the lame to make a sledge. As for the appearance of the sledge, they can see it after waiting. Not only that, but it can also be used.
After Han Cheng spoke, except for a few people in the room, everyone left obediently.
But he didn't go very far, but stayed outside the room, stretching his head and looking into the room.
After discovering this scene, Han Cheng shook his head and smiled helplessly. These guys, it's so cold outside, they can freeze people to death if they stand for a while. Now they are standing outside, what should they do if they catch a cold?
In order to prevent these extremely curious people in the tribe from getting sick from the cold, Han Cheng kindly asked them to go to the quarry to mine stones after he walked out of the room...
It's freezing cold, how can we stay outside without doing some work?
Of course, another reason is that after the sledge is manufactured, the speed of transporting stones can be greatly increased.
If we don't take advantage of the fact that the sledge has not yet been built, to mine more stones and put them there for later use, I'm afraid it won't be long before the supply of mined stones will be exhausted.
The structure of a sledge is not that complicated. Except that there is no pulley underneath, instead it is replaced by two long glossy wooden bars with both ends tilted up. The rest of the structure is very similar to the oxcarts that Han Cheng has come into contact with many times.
resemblance.
By this time, the usefulness of iron tools became increasingly apparent.
If there are no such things as axes, chisels, saws, and planes, it would be difficult to build a sledge that does not require low technical requirements and rely on the original tools.
However, the sledges of the Qingque tribe were much simpler than those commonly seen in later generations. The two most important and wide pieces of wood at the bottom were not missing, and all other parts that could be missing were removed.
Firstly, it was because of the limited technical level. It was the first time for the first carpenter to build such a tool. Secondly, Han Cheng wanted to build a sledge as early as possible, transport stones, and build the bathhouse as soon as possible.
Therefore, the requirements were lowered, making the sledge built much simpler and rougher.
Two long frames, used as 'wheels', are connected every 20 centimeters by a wooden scale five centimeters wide and four centimeters thick in the middle, just like making a wooden ladder.
The connection is made of neat grommets made with iron chisels. After the wooden scale passes through the grommets on the wooden frame, a small hole is drilled out with a hand drill in the exposed part. The small hole is close to the wooden frame.
The outer edge is firmly wedged with a wooden nail about half a centimeter in diameter. As long as the wooden nail is kept constant, the sledge will not fall apart.
This is the main structure of the sledge manufactured by Qingque Tribe.
In addition, thirty centimeters of ‘wooden gangs’ were installed on the wooden frames on both sides.
This is something similar to a railing, which can prevent things mounted on the sledge from falling to the left and right sides.
When people ride the sledge, they can also sit on this 'wooden gang', which is more comfortable.
To put it simply, the wooden ladder is thickened and widened, the two ends are tilted upward, and wooden railings are placed on the sides. This is probably the sledge made by the Qingque tribe.
Generally speaking, a layer of wooden boards is laid on top of the sledge, similar to the bed boards on an old-fashioned bed.
With this layer of wooden boards, things will not leak down from the sledge, and when the snow is deep, the snow will not be turned up.
However, there are no such wooden boards on the sledges of the Qingque tribe.
In order to save iron material, the iron saw was made a little short before. It can be used to cut some wood that is not too thick, but it is a bit difficult to cut the wood into wooden boards.
In order to save time and put the sledge into use as soon as possible, Han Chenggong omitted this step.
The sledge, which was two meters long and one meter wide, was lifted upright from the room and placed on the unplowed snow in the yard.
The seemingly heavy sledge pushed down a lot of snow in one go.
He stooped down and pulled the end of the sledge with his hands, trying to move forward. He could pull it, but it was not as easy as the Son of God said.
Lame scratched his hair with his hands, worried that he had not made the sledge well.
Pulling an empty sledge is so strenuous. If heavy stones are placed on it, it will be even more difficult to walk.
The adult deer in the tribe are much stronger than humans, but they are not too big.
Pulling a sledge in the snow, and then pulling stones...
Thinking about that situation, Lai couldn't help but imitate the Son of God and twitch his nose.
Before the experiment, Lame had full confidence in the sledge mentioned by the Son of God, but now after the experiment, he became guilty...
