Chapter 11 Complete Logging
Tomorrow, she and Suiye planned to take the able-bodied men to log, while the young women still went to pick vegetables and fruits.The older grannies are in the tribe to deal with tonight's bracken and all the leftovers.Uncle Bart taught another elderly man to weave a basket.

"When you go back tonight, each of you will tell your family members." Chu Yao finished the division of labor for tomorrow in one breath.

"Sister Yao, what about us?" Suifeng also came over at this time.

"Hey, don't worry, I happen to have a job for you tomorrow, but you have to take the initiative to do it for me!" Chu Yao pinched his little face.

"Don't worry, we promise to complete the task!" Suifeng patted his chest immediately, expressing his determination in a manly manner.

Everyone was busy with their work in an orderly manner, until it was almost midnight when the temperature dropped sharply.

Suiye urged everyone to call it a day and go to rest.

There was a lot of work today, and Chu Yao dragged her sore body back into the house.After Suifeng fell asleep, he simply washed himself.

"Hey, my waist hurts!" Chu Yao wailed and lay down on the bed, beating her waist repeatedly.

"Today must have exhausted you." Sui Ye's voice came.

Chu Yao lazily raised her head: "You are back, hurry up and go to bed, the workload will be heavy tomorrow."

"it is good."

Sui Ye answered with his mouth, but the man went directly to the bed and sat down.

Just when Chu Yao was thinking about what he was going to do, Suiye stretched out her hand, and pressed her waist lightly, with appropriate strength.

Chu Yao squinted her eyes and enjoyed Suiye's service, and fell asleep without knowing it.

Thinking of her arrangements for tomorrow, Sui Ye couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.She is really considerate of everyone by distributing affairs reasonably based on the physical abilities of the clansmen, and these are things he has never considered before!
Suiye lay down next to Chu Yao, and gently moved her into his arms.

The next day, everyone got up earlier than usual. After breakfast, everyone got ready to start today's work.

Chu Yao also received the pannier that Uncle Bate made overnight.

Called directly: "Uncle! Your craftsmanship is awesome!"

Seeing this decent pannier despite its rough workmanship, Chu Yao once again gave Uncle Bate a thumbs up!
Bart is also very proud. He and a few old guys stayed up all night to study, and finally succeeded after many failures.I thought I was old and couldn't do things for the clansmen, but I never thought that the leader's wife would arrange for them, so I don't have to feel guilty at all!
"Uncles, you have worked hard. After the house is built, I will get you some nourishing food." Chu Yao looked at Uncle Bate's eyes bloodshot from staying up late, and felt a little moved.

"Good good."

A group of elderly uncles nodded one after another, their eyes were full of emotion, their leader's wife is really kind at heart!
"Let's go!" Sui Ye came over and said.

Chu Yao asked Suiye to put the stone ax he was using into his backpack, and then he easily carried it and set off.

The logging site is in the forest not far from Chongshang. After logging in the early stage, a wide road has been trampled in the forest.

"Children, follow me first." Seeing that there were already pine trees in the forest, Chu Yao stopped and waved.

He handed the basket to Sui Yedao again: "You guys go there first, I will come up after I have made arrangements for the children."

"Dongze, you stay with the children." Suiye left him behind to avoid any accidents.

"Boys, come and see how I do it."

Chu Yao chose a very thick pine tree and pointed to the pine resin secreted from the bark: "Did you see this? Collect them all, this is your job today, the old rules have rewards plus a story Oh." Chu Yao released the temptation.

"Okay, we'll be done!"

Under Suifeng's leadership, the children soon got involved in picking pine resin.With Dongze here, Chu Yao went up the mountain to find Suiye and the others with peace of mind.

"The chief's wife is here!" A man shouted to everyone when he saw her coming up.

"Suiye, give me your stone axe." Chu Yao said to him directly after arriving.

After receiving the stone ax Sui Ye handed over, he chose a big tree as a demonstration.First use a stone ax at the root of the tree pole, and start chiseling against the bark.Chu Yao's strength is limited and the ax is polished out of stone, so it is quite difficult to chisel it.The strong tree pole collided with the hard stone axe, and Chu Yao's arm went numb.But in order to make a good tutorial for everyone, Chu Yao gritted her teeth and persisted.

After a while, a triangular gap was chiseled out of the tree trunk, and Chu Yao put down the stone axe and exhaled.

"Has the rosin been filled?" she asked Suiye.

"There's a big bag, do you think it's enough?" Sui Ye hurriedly handed over the pine resin wrapped in leaves.

"Enough!" Such a large bag is enough to cut down several trees, and the children are really fast in doing things!
Chu Yao grabbed a handful and put it into the gap in the tree pole: "Bring the fire." With a torch close to the pine resin, Suiye broke a big leaf and fanned it against the torch.

Chu Yao glanced at him appreciatively, a child can be taught!
The fire burned in one direction along with the fan, and soon the turpentine in the gap ignited.

Pine resin is very resistant to burning. After touching it for more than ten minutes, the gap of the tree was burned to the point where only a layer of skin remained.

"It's done! One of you can come over and knock it down." Chu Yao said happily after putting out the fire.

"I come!"

Babu came over eagerly, put his hands on the tree pole, and pushed a few times.

After the big tree made a few "click" sounds, it fell down.

Suiye was very excited: "Chu Yao, you must be a messenger sent by God!" He put his arms around her and kissed her on the cheek.

Chu Yao coquettishly pinched Sui Ye, but in return the man laughed heartily.

The experiment was successful, and then Suiye directed the crowd, and a group of two began to use this method to cut wood.

In fact, the principle is very simple. It is to use the flammable pine resin and control the airflow to make the fire burn in one direction, so that the tree trunk will not be completely burnt, and the outer bark will remain. As long as you use force, the tree will be pushed down. .

Seeing that everyone has mastered the method, Chu Yao said: "For the first batch of trees to be cut down, cut off all the branches and lay them down in a triangle along the road down the mountain."

After Suiye heard this, he turned his head and understood the purpose of this move.

At the end of the day, not only has the progress of logging been accelerated, but the problem of transporting the timber down the mountain has also been solved.

After the wood reaches a certain amount, some people can start building houses, and hunting can also progress.

Thinking about this, Suiye felt that the days were getting more and more hopeful, so he picked up the stone ax and joined the logging.

Chu Yao saw that everyone was cooperating very well and thought that she couldn't help here.

He picked up the basket on his back and said to Sui Ye, "I'll bring Dong Ze up instead."

"Okay, be careful and call us if something happens." Suiye thought that the rosin he collected was down there. There were tribesmen along the way, so there would be no danger.
