Orcs through the age

Waking up early in the morning, Luo Lei and Canaan had already divided their work. Canaan took people to hunt, and Luo Lei took people to cut wood to build a house.

This is also our practice. I don't need to make any arrangements for general things, they know what to do by themselves.I also don't want to interfere too much.

But today I don't intend to do that.So before they left, I also called them back.

I discussed it with Canaan. Although they used to hunt by force in the past, they could still get enough food. However, we don't have so much manpower and time to do it now.We've got a lot to do, and I'm not interested in most of the game that's either dead or wounded.Therefore, I suggest that they wear stone hoes or something to dig a few traps that are enough for the buffalo to fall into, and then quickly trap the prey in the way Roy used to hunt.

Canaan has not been to Hezu for a long time, so I haven’t seen what the trap looks like, so I can only dig a hole in the ground, then put a few wooden sticks on it, and sprinkle some pulled grass, Luo Ray also took a rock and showed Canaan how to drive the prey into the trap.

Canaan didn't understand at first, but after seeing Luo Lei's demonstration, he quickly nodded in agreement, and even Hong Da and the others around him also agreed.Although it can be seen that they seem a little uncomfortable with things like traps, after all, people here still prefer force.But they also understand that we don't have a lot of manpower and time to do things like hunting. It's already July, and it's too late to plant anything, and we haven't found high-yield sweet potatoes and potatoes here for the time being.We need to prepare enough food to prepare for the winter, and at the same time, we also need to make a good house and a fence around the tribe. There are too many things to do, and we can reduce some if possible.

Therefore, Canaan also decided that he only took Lukes and four others to hunt, and the rest of them followed Luo Lei to log.

I also discussed with Luo Lei. I plan to build a house here that is better to set fires and is more comfortable to live in. This kind of house only needs a wooden structure, not all wood, but at the same time it needs a few other things. kind of material.So I have to slowly prepare other materials.Although logging requires more people, I also need someone to help me do things.So I suggest that Luo Lei first lead people to fence the entire valley with sharpened wooden fences about two meters high.As for the other wood that looks unused, it will be shipped back to me to dry and make firewood.The principle of logging is still in accordance with the principles we have established in the He nationality.Also, Monte and Ley and Honda helped me with the prep work I needed to do.

Although he didn't know what I was going to do, Luo Lei still trusted my request.

I also arranged a task for Aman, that is, let him and Alin take a few older children to search for wild vegetables that we can eat as much as possible within the range of the tribe, including the wild barley and wheat we planted before. and other crops, and collect as many as possible.

But obviously, Rona and Yejia were not willing to do this, and even Ari was not willing to do it.In addition, Luo Lei and Canaan also thought that they could start to exercise, so I had to agree that one of them would go logging with Luo Lei, and the other would go hunting with his Abba Canaan.

Ah Yuan originally wanted to come out to help, but I didn't dare to let him out because of the way his stomach looked like, so his task became to stay at home and boil water, and bring our lovely Ah Xing, although Ah Xing Already half a year old, the habit here is that it can already be left alone at home.But I still warn them that there are not many children here. On the one hand, we must step up the development of the tribe and attract more people to join our tribe. On the other hand, we must protect our next generation and treat and educate them more carefully. them.Otherwise, when we die, there are not many people in our tribe, and if our tribe is not prosperous, our tribe will cease to exist.

Everyone also understood that what I was talking about was reality, so they all advised Ah Yuan to stay at home with Ah Xing who had started to crawl around.

In addition, I also told him that his task is to look around the tent to see if there are any medicinal materials that can be used, but he finally looked at me and agreed.Although there seems to be something in the eyes.

One morning, I took Hongda, Ley, and Monte to pull the loess exposed from the collapsed gap in bullock carts.

While digging the loess, I just wanted to be careful not to get salt ore, and to avoid the black soil. After all, black soil is not sticky, and it is better for planting.Rather than mixing them with black soil, I'd rather use them to grow things.

They are also very careful in their work. While transporting the white sandy loess to the bullock cart, they also carefully shovel the black soil to the other side - I told them that I plan to plant a few trees here, which will be used as tribal sentries They even carefully piled the black soil into one piece according to my plan.

Although the hunters didn't come back at noon, we only ate some leftover jerky, but everyone worked hard.

By the end of the afternoon, we had transported the soil three times, and the loess surprised the hunters when they came back.

But the hunters also surprised me. They drove back two cows, four sheep, and a creature I had never seen before. Although some people were slightly injured when collecting the prey, but such a harvest It also makes everyone boil!

Even Canaan, who has always been very calm, repeatedly told everyone the benefits of traps, and from time to time cast admiration and complicated eyes at Luo Lei and me.

Although this is also something that makes me very happy, what makes me most happy is the black things on Ye Jia's body!

At first I didn't notice anything on Ye Jia's body, because his animal skin clothes were really dirty.I just don't know why, Ye Jia and Ari, who usually have a good relationship.This day because Ye Jia rubbed against him, A Rui ran to me crying and complaining that Ye Jia was a big villain and that he had stained his cotton clothes. thing!

According to Ye Jia's recollection, the pit they dug was about three to four meters deep and about six meters long and wide.Originally, he would not have touched that thing, because it was only about as deep as his ankles, and it was actually covered with dirt, and he was not actually dirty. Ari happily sat next to me.

Seeing that I signaled him to continue, he continued, because a cow suddenly ran wildly, and he had no choice but to go up and entangle the cow, and then he rubbed the thing on the cow.

Seeing that he seemed to be hesitant because Ari disliked him being dirty, I smiled at him and told him that I would have someone make a new suit for him someday, and the clothes on him could also be changed, while telling him that his clothes The things on the ground are very important, and he asked Canaan to come over, and let them go to the place where they dug the trap after eating, and bring back two bags of that black thing.

Although the logging team did not have astonishing achievements on the hunting side, their speed was not slow. In a little more than a day and a half, they had already completed the fence of the valley near the foot of the mountain. There was also a large pile of shaved wooden stakes that could be used as a frame for the house.The rest were towed back by bullock carts and intended to be used as firewood.

But these are nothing.What made me most happy was a piece of stone that Luo Lei gave me, which had a metallic luster, an irregular shape, and wonderful patterns on it—meteorite.

After arriving here, although the bone knives here are already very good craftsmanship, the stone tools used for me are already the best that Luo Lei has done his best.Tools made of iron and wood are already much better than those made of stone, but my great regret is that there is no iron.

No matter how shabby a kitchen knife is, it is better than a bone knife. No matter how bad an iron-headed arrow is, it is more lethal than a wooden arrow. Some things, such as frying fish and meat and burning tung oil, barbed wire and iron pans are better than stone slabs. And clay pots!

I really wanted to hug Rory and kiss him to show my excitement, and in fact, I did hug him!He gave me the best gift I've had in a long time!Although he didn't give me many gifts, but here, he is the only one who gave me two gifts that made me very happy.

The first one is the calf he gave me, which is now one of the main labor force in our tribe; the second one is the piece of meteorite he gave me now!

I have been fortunate enough to visit several collections of meteorites. Although I don’t know much about meteorites and meteorites, I can also tell that this is a meteorite with an iron content of more than [-] to [-]%. Not mesoirites or meteorites with too many impurities.I am even more honored to have once visited the production process of Longquan sword with our top leaders, and I was also fortunate to see a Malak Rex sword handed down by a business partner who showed us his family. , I was also fortunate to hear his wife tell the general process of how her family made the Malakrishi sword.I even wanted to buy a piece of meteorite on a whim for a while, but that is not something that can be done with financial resources and interest. What's more, I don't have such financial resources, so I can only give up in the end.

Although I don't know how to find ore and smelt it, and I was not so lucky to give me a piece of meteorite from the sky to play with, but now there are ready-made materials, I can still give it a try.

Even if you can't make a sword, it's better to make an iron pot or a better kitchen knife!

Therefore, from the time I ate, I held the stone and studied it non-stop. Sim Mu also laughed at me because Luo Lei gave me too few gifts, so I was so excited to pick up a stone for me.

I really wanted to refute that he didn't even give Ah Man a stone, but seeing how he carefully helped Ah Man feed the broth to Ah Xing, I still shrugged and resisted the desire to tease him.I continued to dream happily of the majestic dream of me holding the world's first Longquan sword.Luo Lei couldn't help rubbing my hair twice.

Because the required materials are basically complete, I no longer hesitate to use other materials to replace them. The so-called rich and courageous, I also started to discuss with Luo Lei, and began to follow the mountain to find a higher and flatter place. Some places started to level the land, and started to make preparations for the things needed for the house.

While asking me in detail what I need to do and how to do it.Luo Lei also gave me some suggestions from time to time. Soon, we had a rough plan on how to level the land, how to lay the foundation, and how to fire the kiln. We also had a clearer idea of ​​when to do things.

It can really be said that Luo Lei is actually much better than me in planning and management. He can sort out a lot of details that I didn't think of. People are much more practical.

Just as we were making the wooden board I wanted for molding and chatting, the Canaan father and son who went out to carry the dirty thing I wanted and Lukes who went with them also came back up.

Because it took them four or five hours to go back and forth, and the sun was about to go down, and those who continued to cut wood to make fences in the afternoon gradually came back, and it was time to start preparing food.

I took the two heavy bags from their hands and walked over to Ah Man and the others who were preparing barbecue and soup.

Because the trap has been exposed to the sun for about ten hours a day, the soil on the surface is actually relatively dry.

The ones I took out were also [-]% to [-]% dry in the sun, and they started to burn when they were put in the fire.

Everyone was a little puzzled at first, why did I throw the stone into the fire, and even watched me burn the stone dumbfounded.

But as the stones put into the fire slowly turned red, they continued to burn. Even after I asked Ah Man and A Lin to reduce the amount of firewood they put in, the fire was still red, even redder than the firewood, and lasted longer. When the flame was even hotter than the firewood, everyone was surprised again!

I saw everyone's surprised and curious faces, and everyone's unbelievable hands touching the magical black stones still contained in the two animal skin bags, and I couldn't help but want to laugh.

Yes, this is coal, the coal that was once called the black gold and the bread of industry!Whether it's the following life, or what I will do in the future, or future development, there will be coal that will greatly promote it!In this primitive society where prospecting and mining are still almost at zero stage of development, it is coal that can be encountered but not sought after!

The light of the fire reflected on my face, and even though there was no setting sun at this time, I thought my eyes and face must also be red, or, the more clear light of the fire was in my eyes.

Who can say that when you lose something, you must be losing it?Who knows, when you lose something, in a sense, another door may be opened for you!

I don't deny that when I left the He family, I also felt uncertain, retreated, and even thought of compromising. After all, people are used to a place, so how difficult it is to change it?What's more, they are Chinese who are used to relocating their land!

But at this moment, I am more convinced than anyone that we will have a better life!We will definitely become stronger and stronger!Even though we don't have many people now, we don't even have a house, and we don't have enough manpower to do these things, but as long as we persist, we will definitely be able to live better and better.

We will definitely be able to create a new story on this land.
