The entire Qingque tribe was so excited by the fish cage that the senior brother got up early the next morning, rubbed his hands with other members of the hunting team and looked at Han Cheng and the fish cage enshrined in front of the totem pole.
They wanted to see with their own eyes the elegance of fishing in fish traps given by God.
Han Cheng knew what they were thinking, so he took the fish cage and walked out. As a result, everyone else in the cave wanted to follow them to see the miracle.
Even the most stable witch is no exception.
My luck was not very good today. When I came back from the river, I only caught eight fish.
But this was enough to shock the senior brothers and the others, because it was still early and half of the morning had not even been used up.
Moreover, after the fish cage was launched into the water, the wife of the elder brother who was the best at spearing fish in the tribe, under the arrangement of the elder brother, took a simple harpoon and struck it twenty meters away.
In the same time, she only caught three fish!
The advantages of fish cages are fully reflected after comparison!
After collecting the fish cage, the senior brother, who was already in a state of fanaticism, led other equally fanatical people to find suitable wooden sticks without Han Cheng's instructions.
Other people in the cave were rubbing ropes with ropes.
After getting all the materials, Han Cheng started making fish cages again, and chose three more ingenious people in the tribe to teach, including Lame.
At night, the Qingque tribe had four more fish cages. Including the original one, there were five in total!
The usefulness of the fish cage is far beyond Wu's imagination.
Because Han Cheng wove a net that can be entered and exited at the mouth of the fish cage, after the fish entered the fish cage, there was no need to pull it out in a hurry, and the fish could not escape.
So one person does not have to guard a fish cage completely.
One person can take care of three or even four fish cages, which is quite busy.
The person who takes care of the fish cages only needs to stay on the shore, and then pull the fish cages out of the water one by one every once in a while, take out the fish inside, and then put the fish cages back into the water.
Moreover, because the fish cage needs to be placed in the water for a long time in this way, sometimes the fish cage can contain two or even three fish when it is pulled out!
One person guarded the fish cage and sent two people to transport fish to the tribe. At the end of the day, the tribe could not finish the fish they caught in two days!
The food problem that has been weighing heavily on everyone's hearts and making people dare not relax at all has been solved by these small fish cages and the minors in the three tribes!
this……
This is truly a miracle!
Looking at the fish piled up in the cave and the fish cages placed neatly by the workers in the most conspicuous place of the tribe, everyone's faces showed a sincere smile.
They don’t have to be busy all day long and worry about not having enough food!
These are all gifts from God and His Son!
The advent of the fish cage gave Han Cheng a higher prestige within the tribe, far surpassing that of his elder brother as the leader, and even higher than that of the wise witch in the tribe.
But Han Cheng was not proud of it, because in his opinion, it was not worth being proud of.
He treated witches and others as usual, respecting them when they should, and being approachable when they should be approachable.
But everyone in the tribe respects him from the bottom of their hearts.
The weather is already hot now, and there are too many fish caught every day. If you can't eat them, they will go bad.
However, Han Cheng still did not reduce the number of fish cages in the water.
But what is different from the past is that the fish caught are not transported directly back to the hole, but are cleaned on the spot by the river, and then salt is rubbed on it, on the beach by the river, the cleared flat land, and the free space.
Come down to the place where the pottery is fired to dry.
This is about making dried salted fish.
The people responsible for doing this are some minors in the tribe who can do light work, women with weaker constitutions, and of course, lame ones.
Han Cheng did not let them throw fish viscera and fish scales randomly. Instead, he specially dug some pits 20 meters away from the river bank and close to the downstream. The viscera cleaned out every day were thrown into these pits.
, when it’s time to finish work in the evening, first throw some dry grass on top of these internal organs, and then cover them evenly with a layer of soil.
Continue in this order, after smoothing one pit, then replace it with the next pit.
Of course Han Cheng is not doing useless work again.
This can protect the environment on the one hand and prevent fish offal from being left everywhere along the river, and on the other hand it can be fertilized.
In autumn, he was going to plant a crop of rapeseed. Now that he had the opportunity, he naturally had to make some preparations in advance.
The construction of the wall is a huge project for today's tribes. Han Cheng roughly calculated the workload and found that even in autumn, it would not be able to complete the construction.
Autumn is also the season for storing food. In order to avoid the problem of storing food that would greatly affect the construction of the wall, Han Chenggong took advantage of the hot weather to dry out more fish.
The place in the tribe that is specially used to store food is surrounded by thirteen large tanks. In the enclosed space, under the guidance of Han Cheng, a layer of mud embryos that were first made and dried in the shade was laid.
The mud embryo was covered with a layer of broken animal skins, and on top of the animal skins was a thick layer of hay.
This is where the dried fish is placed.
With these three layers of protection, it will not be that easy for the moisture to rise from the ground and make the dried fish wet!
As for the empty tanks surrounding it, they are also used to store food.
The bottoms of these tanks are also lined with adobe.
Storing food in this way not only has a good moisture-proof effect, but also saves a lot of space.
After no longer having to worry about food every day, the wall planned by Han Cheng was also put on the agenda.
Han Cheng didn't want to build a smaller wall because after building the wall, he also wanted to build houses inside the wall and build some pens for raising livestock. At the same time, he also wanted to leave enough space for the people in the tribe to rest and play in peace.
It is precisely because it is not easy to build the wall that Han Cheng wants to build it well. Otherwise, he has spent a lot of effort now and will not be able to keep up with the situation in a few years. If he pushes it to expand again, he will suffer a big loss.
Got it!
He has been wandering around outside the tribe for the past two days. Under the premise of taking care of the terrain, he can basically build the wall to a scale of three hundred meters wide from north to south and five hundred meters long from east to west.
Because the northernmost side of the wall is the mountain wall where the tribal cave is located, the mountain wall on this side is high enough, so there is no need to build a wall.
In other words, we only need to build two 300-meter walls and one 500-meter wall to create a safe enough space for the tribe!
