Chapter 91 Construction of the Deer Enclosure

The deer pen is already liveable, next to the rabbit pen.

It is a railing-type building.

Such a building is not very difficult for the Qingque tribe who have already built walls.

Specifically, this is how it is created.

First, draw the shape of the deer pen at the selected location, which is actually four sides.

The deer pen was rectangular, fifty meters long and thirty meters wide, with a total area of ​​1,500 square meters! In later generations, it was definitely a very extravagant act.

However, considering that there were a total of twenty-two deer, large and small, plus the large size of the deer and the arrogant nature of the deer, Han Cheng deliberately built the deer enclosure to be very large.

Of course, another consideration is the reproduction of these deer. Once the deer herd expands in the future, a pen that is too small will naturally not be able to adapt. On the contrary, it is not as convenient as doing it in one step.

This is convenient and trouble-free for people and comfortable for deer.

After planning the shape on the ground, the next step is to dig holes and plant pillars.

The weather is cold in winter and the ground is hard, so it is naturally difficult to dig at this time, but don't worry, this problem can be easily solved.

At Han Cheng's signal, the tribesmen cleared the snow before digging, and then lit a pool of fire on the ground where they were going to dig the pit. The temperature of the flame would make the hard land soft.

After the soil was roasted until it was soft, everyone took advantage of the heat to dig with their newly constructed bone shovels.

The bone shovel is much easier to use than the previous flat-headed wooden stick. This is not only because it is sharper, but also because it is wider, it can dig more soil at one time.

Another reason is that when digging, the senior brother and others can step on the side of the bone shovel with their feet and dig into the soil.

In the past, when grinding flat wooden sticks were used to dig the soil and insert the sticks into the earth, all people could rely on was the strength of their two arms.

And because of the force, a lot of power will be lost in this process, and not all of it is used to 'enter' into the soil.

Nowadays, it is different to use your feet to push down one side of the bone shovel and step directly down. First of all, the strength of the thigh is much greater than that of the arm. It is not for nothing that "the arm cannot twist the thigh."

Secondly, when using the feet to push the bone shovel into the soil, the weight of the body will also be used. Just for this reason, the level is no higher than simply holding a wooden stick and inserting it into the soil.

Another thing is the directness of force. When stepping down with your feet, much less force will be consumed compared to using your hands.

After combining these advantages, the most direct manifestation is the mining speed, which has been increased by more than three times compared with before!

In the past, things that couldn't be pressed with great effort by hand can now be reached out with one foot and stepped on one side of the bone shovel. Without using too much force, the bone shovel can easily enter the soil, and then use both hands.

Holding the handle of the bone shovel and tilting it back, a large piece of soil was dug up. (Suddenly, I remembered the advertisements for various pain-relieving medicinal wines and plasters on local channels...)

The ease of use of the new tool makes the senior brother and others very happy, because it means that they will increase the efficiency of doing things, and another reason is to save effort.

Even if you do a lot more things in a day than before, you won't be as tired as before.

Using this method, in just four days, the people of the Qingque tribe dug 1,780 holes on the four lines drawn by Han Cheng, including four corners and four holes.

The pit in the middle of the side is the largest and deepest.

This is done to improve the stability of the deer enclosure.

In one of these eight deep pits, a pillar with a diameter of more than fifteen centimeters was planted.

It is naturally difficult to break such a thick tree trunk just by relying on the tribe's stone axe, but it is much easier to burn it on a fire, although this is a bit costly and unsightly.

But these things obviously don't need to be considered by the Qingque tribe who have a lot of wood.

Long before the fire was set to burn the ground, these pillars had already been cut off while the fire was burning.

Eight pillars over two meters long were carried and erected in the dug pit by the tribesmen, and then the previously excavated soil was backfilled. Each layer was filled with the same sticks used to pound the wall.

In order to make it stronger, at Han Cheng's instruction, some stones were filled in at the base of the pillar.

After the eight large pillars at the four corners and the middle were erected, the people who had been divided into four groups divided their work again, and in pairs they began to plant small pillars as thick as their wrists in the remaining small pits.

This was easier to do, and it didn't even take half a day to complete, and everything was done.

Then we weave branches onto these pillars, which are placed every one meter.

In Han Cheng’s hometown, this technique is called ‘潽’ or ‘bie’.

The specific method is to use relatively thin and flexible branches to pass between these vertical pillars, one to the left and one to the right, and then go to the next branch, and then pass through them in the opposite direction.

After doing this, the entire deer enclosure will be connected into a whole, very strong.

The height of the weaving with thin branches is about one meter and two, and above it is a gap of about forty centimeters.

After the gap, the remaining height of about 30 centimeters is woven again with thinner branches.

This can not only ensure lighting, but also save a lot of materials and effort, and will not affect the stability of the deer enclosure.

Around the deer pen, Han Cheng also had people dig ditches for drainage. The ground inside the deer pen was also covered with a thick layer of firewood ash, mixed with hay and broken leaves. It can be said that it is very

Attentive.

Because of the disturbance from the Soaring Snake tribe a few days ago, the deer pen was not completely built, such as the lack of a roof, and Han Cheng's idea of ​​putting mud on both sides of the one-meter-two-meter-high fence near the bottom.

These will be made up one by one as time passes.

Uncle Deer had a crisp and delicious small rapeseed in his mouth. He swallowed it in three or two motions with his mouth moving. Then he didn't need Han Cheng to do anything. He consciously buried half of his head in Han Cheng's hand.

He held the animal skin bag in his hand and rolled a mouth full of it with his tongue. Then he was willing to pull out the head and slowly chewed this rare delicacy.

The rest of the deer all followed their leader into this completely unseen place.

However, these deer have all seen big events and are not stage frightened at all.

Especially under Han Cheng's instruction, Heiwa and others brought a lot of dried grass and put it on the wooden rafts prepared in advance on the ground. After treating them warmly, these deer became more natural.

.

Each one's mouth was moving rapidly, and their little tails were wagging from time to time, looking quite happy and unwilling to miss their childhood.

The witch looked at the group of deer, grinning more than he could see.

Especially when a little deer that was born not long ago poked its head into his hand and ate a few rapeseeds, and stretched out its pink tongue to lick his hand a few times, Wu was even more happy.

He stretched out his hand and stroked the deer's head gently. Looking at the deer grazing peacefully, his inner joy was indescribable, and his admiration for Han Cheng could not be greater.

The Son of God is a true god! He brought back such a large herd of deer to the tribe without any violent means!

You know, deer are good at running. Even for the adults of the tribe, it is extremely difficult to hunt them!

And the Son of God, who is still a child, can actually bring back so many, and they are all alive. If they are tamed, their tribe will have as many deer as rabbits!

This is truly a miracle!
