With the arrival of Han Cheng and others, Jinguan City suddenly became overcrowded.
The inner courtyard, which seemed spacious before, now seemed extremely crowded.
The houses built before were overcrowded, and there were still many people with no place to live.
Fortunately, the weather had gradually warmed up at this time, and Han Cheng and the others had been sleeping outdoors along the way and had prepared the tools to sleep outdoors, so they could make do with it for a while.
However, this is obviously not a long-term solution.
In the long run, more houses must be built as soon as possible to resettle these people in the tribe.
A fat man is not made by eating one meal, and a house cannot be built at once.
Under today's circumstances, it is obviously impossible to build the kind of house that the Qingque tribe lives in in one step.
Therefore, semi-cave-dwelling dome houses similar to those used by the original semi-agricultural tribes were once again pulled out for emergency purposes.
Before these emergency houses were built, most of the houses that had been built in the past were used to house minors.
Most adults live in tents, huts, etc.
No one was dissatisfied with Han Cheng's arrangement.
The old men of the Qingque tribe have long been accustomed to such things. They have done similar things before, and they also agree with them very much.
Minors are the future of their own tribe. The more minors they have, the more they develop, and their own tribe will develop better in the future.
As for those who came with Han Cheng from the Qingque Lord Tribe and the original Qingque Alliance, they would have no objection to such a matter.
Because these minors who were given preferential treatment were basically from their previous tribes, and many of their children were among them.
In addition, another reason is that even the extremely respectful and wise Son of God himself did not live in a house, but chose to live with them in a temporary tent.
Everyone admired him greatly and felt warm in their hearts.
According to normal development, it will take some time for the old men of the Qingque Tribe who stayed in Jinguan City and the new men of the Qingque Tribe who came with Han Cheng to get along.
However, after Han Cheng's operations, this process was greatly shortened.
There is basically a seamless connection between the two parties, they are happy and happy, and it looks like they have lived together a long time ago.
While handling these matters, in such an atmosphere, Han Cheng also learned about some of the things that happened in Jinguan City during the time he left from the mouths of his second senior brother, Mao and others.
Nothing major happened here in Jinguan City, things were still proceeding in an orderly manner according to the previous plan.
The Red Tiger tribe that Han Cheng was worried about did not come, and the Youchao tribe also obeyed the rules and did not come here either.
During the time that Han Cheng left, another transaction was conducted with the Red Tiger tribe in Jinguan City through the hunchbacked primitive people.
Twenty-four cows were exchanged from them in one go.
When the hunchbacked primitive people left, they said that they would continue to come to exchange with the Qingque tribe.
In addition, Mao also told Han Cheng that because the amount of salt he carried before was not large, there was no further exchange of salt with other parties.
The older primitive women reported to him that many tribes were short of salt, and they were eager to exchange enough salt from their own tribes to continue trading with those tribes.
"Hey, salt!"
After learning the news from Mao Mao, Han Cheng pointed to the side with a smile and said to Mao Mao.
What was placed there was the salt they brought with them from the main tribe this time, and it was in large quantities.
After seeing this large amount of salt, Mao suddenly showed a smile on his face.
This former leader of the Donkey Tribe was a man who often made exchanges with his tribe members, and he still had great enthusiasm for exchanges.
He likes to do this kind of thing. Every time he sees a lot of things being exchanged for things from his own tribe from other tribes, he will feel happy from the bottom of his heart.
Even when he saw things like pottery and table salt, he would unconsciously convert them - if he exchanged these things with other tribes, how much would his tribe get.
It is precisely because of this that Mao is reluctant to waste a little salt on weekdays. Even if the bowls he uses are broken, he still continues to use them.
Because in his opinion, this is saving food...
One cloud after another floats in the sky, and the sun is sometimes covered by the clouds, and sometimes emerges, so the ground above is sometimes sunny and sometimes dark.
In this land where there is shade from time to time, Jinguan City is very busy.
The outer courtyard of Jinguan City, which was originally planned, is now being built.
Just like before, the wall was built first.
This is the best option when there may be foreign enemies.
Only after the wall was built first, Han Cheng allowed people to start building houses in the outer courtyard for living.
Before that, people in the tribe basically had to live in temporarily built domes and semi-cave houses.
The people in the tribe have all endured hardships.
In other words, the place I lived in before was not much better than the semi-cave dwelling house now, so I had no complaints about such things.
In fact, even if the semi-cave house is not as good as the cave they lived in before, no one will complain.
Because it was the Son of God who said this, and it was the Son of God who asked everyone to do this.
This alone is enough.
Not to mention, doing this is for the safety of everyone!
The fence currently being built is much larger than the fence Han Cheng had planned before.
This is the result of Han Cheng's modifications based on the original one.
When planning the return, Han Cheng himself never thought that the population of his tribe would increase so fast.
Therefore, in order to achieve the goal in one step as much as possible, Han Cheng expanded the outer courtyard this time.
When expanding these yards, Han Cheng encountered a problem, which was how to consolidate the foundations.
The main tribe basically used stones to build the foundation.
There are not many stones here in Jinguan City, so when he was building the inner courtyard before, Han Cheng had people cut down tree stumps, burn them black and carbonize them, nail them into the ground, and then build them.
In fact, it is okay to expand at this time and continue construction according to the previous practice, but Han Cheng is always a little worried about this.
I'm worried that at some point these tree stumps driven into the soil will break down, causing the wall to collapse.
Although these tree stumps have been burned by fire, they have been carbonized to a certain extent.
But after all, these things are not steel bars, and the soil outside is not cement.
Moreover, nowadays we are building exterior walls whose length, width and height are basically longer than the interior walls, so there is no harm in being cautious.
It's just that caution is caution and worry is worry. In the current situation where there is a lack of stone and steel and concrete, it is not easy to solve this matter.
At least Han Cheng and everyone in Jinguan City who knew his thoughts were embarrassed.
They really couldn't think of any way to make the foundation of the wall better than that of the inner courtyard under the current circumstances.
However, this kind of thing did not bother everyone in Jinguan City for too long.
This is mainly due to the fact that they have a son of God who has traveled through time from later generations, and before traveling through time, he read a lot of online novels.
Affected by these unscrupulous online novel writers, my imagination is really not that big.
So after some entanglement, a solution to the problem was figured out...
While everyone was pounding earth to build the wall here, many minors who came this time were not idle either. They carried dried firewood from other places and kept transporting it here.
Some people stayed here, stacking the dry firewood carried by the minors on both sides and on top of the rammed foundation, and surrounding it all to cover it.
This is what Han Cheng thought of.
His method is actually very simple to say, and was inspired by the pottery of the tribe.
Since mud can be fired into pottery by heating it vigorously, can a foundation made of rammed earth also be heated and fired into something similar to pottery?
In this case, wouldn't it be possible to perfectly avoid the shortcomings of lack of stones and other things?
Of course, Han Da Shenzi is sometimes unscrupulous, but he generally doesn't make decisions that slap his ass, especially when a lot of manpower and material resources are involved, let alone act in such a random way.
After coming up with this idea, he did not let anyone execute it immediately. Instead, he first built a small section of earth wall, piled up a lot of firewood, and burned it for a long time to conduct an experiment.
Experiments have proven that his idea is completely feasible. After being burned by fire for a long time, the wall made of rammed earth really transforms into the state of pottery, and the whole becomes a whole.
Although it is not as solid as stone, it is still enough for use.
Moreover, if the adhesion of the stones is taken into consideration, the performance of this completely connected ceramic wall is actually better than that of the stone wall.
But there are also disadvantages.
The disadvantage is that such an operation is really a waste of firewood.
Fortunately, at this time, there are enough forests around, so as long as you are willing to put in the effort, you don't have to worry about running out of firewood.
Moreover, when logging is carried out at this time, those thick tree trunks are left and can be used on houses when they are built later.
The clearings after clearing can be turned into land and some crops can be planted in due course, so they will not be left idle.
Some distance away from the busy Jinguan City, there is a herd of cows grazing leisurely.
These cattle were obtained by Mao and others by exchanging them with the hunchbacked primitive people during the period when Han Cheng left.
The herding scene at this time was very different from the image of a shepherd boy riding an ox and playing a fife on his back in the impressions of later generations of literary and artistic youth.
The cattle herders did not ride on the back of the cattle, but held the reins in their hands and let the cattle graze. Some minors held both ends in their hands, and some children only held the reins in their hands.
One head.
Generally speaking, children holding only one cow will be more nervous and careful than children holding two cows. Moreover, two children holding one cow will generally not come together, but will be separated by a certain distance.
distance.
The reason for this is that on the one hand, these cattle are different from the cattle of later generations that have been domesticated for thousands of years and passed down from generation to generation. They are quite wild, and these children are all novices in cattle herding.
, so I still can’t do this skillfully.
On the other hand, these children who only lead one cow are basically holding bulls.
Compared with cows, bulls are larger and more powerful and are undoubtedly more wild.
Especially when two bulls come into contact, it is easy for them to start butting.
Even if they have been given nose rings, most children would not be able to pull them apart when faced with such a situation.
Han Cheng already knew about this situation, so he stood in Jinguan City and looked towards the place where the minors were herding cattle. From a distance, he saw two cows getting together again and ignored them.
After the minors shouted and pulled the rope, Han Cheng secretly clenched his fists while only focusing on his head.
It seems that relying solely on the bull nose ring cannot restrain the restless hearts of these guys.
It seems that we need to select a good day, and then let the people in the tribe pin these guys to the ground again and stop them from moving, and use knives to relieve some of their impatience and make them calmer.
If you remove the roots of your worries with one knife, they will definitely not be as impatient as they are now.
Just like the pigs raised in the tribe and some rams in the flock.
Before coming to this era, Han Cheng didn't understand much about how people shed animals they raised, and felt that such an operation was really cruel.
However, after coming to this world, as the number of animals raised in the tribe increased day by day, Han Cheng's thoughts disappeared.
Using a knife to remove some of them is really a very good, very simple and effective way to solve the problem once and for all.
Well, in the words of later generations, it means cutting to rule forever.
The two rejoicing bulls had their heads above their heads. I don't know what Han Cheng was thinking at this time. If he knew it, he didn't know whether he would be in the same mood and continue with this matter...
