life in primitive society

Chu Zhi originally thought that the things picked from the forest would be distributed equally, but he was also worried that the seedlings in his frame would be lost.It turned out that this was not the case. No wonder Fu asked them to collect on a family basis from the very beginning.The meaning is very clear, if you pick more food, you will get more food. The system of those who can do more work is already relatively advanced.

In this way, Chu Zhi had a better understanding of Fu's decision to agree to bring the iron meteorite back.Fu is indeed a responsible man, and he has a very personal vision. Even modern people do not have this courage.After all, food and an unknown stone, Fu being able to choose a stone, does have extraordinary confidence and boldness.

Gui is a master at home, he gets busy early in the morning.The men went out early in the morning because they didn't go hunting yesterday.Chu Zhi and Se stayed at home to help you with work, which was actually not a tiring task.It is to put those sweet potatoes in a corner of the room, and then spread a layer of grass on it so that the sweet potatoes can be kept longer.

"Auntie Gui, why don't you dig a cellar? Isn't it much more convenient?" Chu Zhi remembered that it was mentioned on TV that northerners generally have cellars in their homes, which are specially used to store vegetables and sweet potatoes in winter.

"The cellar?" Gui heard this for the first time. "what is that?"

"That." Chu Zhi didn't know whether to say it. Is it really okay to talk too much about modern things at once?What if you don't regard him as a god?He is not ready to be admired by others.If everyone thinks his intelligence is unparalleled, it will be bad to ask him questions all the time.Do we want to keep it secret and give people a sense of mystery?

"Chu Zhi, don't you know?" Se Zai helped Gui peel off the soil from the sweet potatoes, and said comfortingly, "It's okay if you don't know. Auntie said that we are still children. knew."

"Who are you talking about, who doesn't know? Who doesn't know the cellar." Chu Zhi was still imagining the scene of himself becoming a Buddha, but when he said this, he immediately fell down from the clouds.He was so angry that he even forgot how old he was, and shouted: "What the hell do you know? A cellar is a hole about three meters deep in the ground, which is specially used to store food for the winter, so that the food will not rot or be damaged. broken."

"Can it really be preserved?" Gui was a little moved when he heard that, every year the food always gets damaged in the end.Things like sweet potatoes, although they can be stored for a period of time, they still won't work after a long time.In the most difficult time of winter, starvation is inevitable.

"That." Chu Zhi really didn't dare to promise this. He is a southerner who doesn't have much research on things like cellars.I just watched it once on TV, or just watched it again because I was so bored that day. "Aunt Gui, I've seen people do it before, but I don't quite understand it myself."

"Then how did other people do it?" Gui still didn't want to give up, if there is a way, at least let the children eat more this winter.During the winter, children often freeze to death or starve to death, especially Chu Zhi, who is so weak and difficult to feed. "It's okay, we can give it a try."

"Is this okay? If not, the food will be wasted." Chu Zhi had to remind Gui, after all, food is very precious here.

Gui also hesitated, and Chu Zhi's reminder made sense. Although she wanted to preserve the food, she didn't care about taking risks.And if you put it on the ground, even though part of it will be broken, it's better than nothing at all.

"Aniang, the weather is not very cold yet. Let's dig first, and then put some other things in it. If there is no problem, then put sweet potatoes, okay?" Se shook his head, looking forward to looking at Gui, he hoped that Aniang could dig the cellar , so that you will like Chu Zhi even more.

"Okay." Gui felt that Se's suggestion was very good, she patted Se's head, her child really grew up.Can have his own ideas, stronger than other cubs.Maybe after being with Chu Zhi for a long time, have you also become smarter with Chu Zhi?

Chu Zhi choked on his throat, damn it, did I ask you to help?Do you fucking know, if I don't succeed, where will I put my face? I am a talent but not a genius, how can I understand everything!Chu Zhi glared at Se's help, making Se baffled, why did she stare at herself, she was helping him.

But after all the words were said, Chu Zhi really couldn't say it and wanted to make excuses, so he could only bite the bullet and try hard to remember.Now that I said it, I had to work immediately. The women spent a whole day sorting out all the things they dug yesterday.The next day Gui called everyone together and started digging.

Chu Zhi had made an agreement with Gui in advance, saying that this matter was thought up by Gui.Gui disagreed at first. Although he was a child, he couldn't take credit for it, but Chu Zhi refused to say that he thought it up. The reason was very fair.He is still a child, but he lives happily like a child, and he doesn't want everyone to look at him strangely.Moreover, he believes that you are the wife of the patriarch, and she is very authoritative in the tribe, and it is more convincing for you to come out to preside over it.

Gui was very satisfied with Chu Zhi's excuse, and Chu Zhi's flattery was just right.

"Chu Zhi, you are so kind to Auntie. I saw Auntie secretly laughing just now. After we get married, Auntie will like you." Se was very happy with Chu Zhi's act of giving up his glory. , His daughter-in-law is really nice, much better than others.

"Your aunt is very kind to me. I really like her. And this kind of thing is originally done by your aunt. I just talk, it's nothing." Chu Zhiyang smiled with a small face.Damn, I'm just trying to give it a try this time, if I fail, I won't be ashamed.

So the two children went hand in hand to find the place, which was chosen by Chu Zhi.Not far from Gui's home, in a place facing the sun, Chu Zhi thought that it would be good if there was wind, and the sun could absorb water, and the food would rot because of the dampness.

Guihe and the women brought stone tools, which looked like modern iron rakes, but they were made of stone and were laborious to use.In this way, Chu Zhi remembered the iron meteorite in their house, and he could use it as an iron rake at that time, which would save much effort.

The so-called strength in numbers, unity is strength.After a while, a hole about three meters wide and three meters deep was dug. Gui ordered the women to lay a layer of wood on the ground, just to support the two ends. Mainly Chu Zhi was afraid that the soil would collapse in the future. The wood is on top.The distance between each piece of wood is 30 to 40 centimeters. He watched it on TV, but he forgot what it was for. Anyway, it is necessary for each piece of wood to have a distance.

Then spread thick hay on the wood, at least [-] centimeters or more, basically like this.

Finally, put the things that need to be stored in it, because it is an experiment, so I put some food that can be collected in the east woods, that is, some wild vegetables, which have been slightly dried before.Then put a layer of wooden planks on the top, and spread a thick layer of soil on the wooden planks to seal it directly.Of course, a hole was left to cover it with a wooden board, so that we could go in in the future to see how the dishes inside were.

When everything was ready, it was getting late at night, so Chu Zhi didn't care too much if he didn't have confidence in this.Anyway, it doesn't take much effort. I guess it won't matter if it fails. I can't settle accounts after the fall.

Thinking of this, Chu Zhi didn't worry anymore, what he cared about now was his basket of little seedlings.It must not be placed in the cellar anymore, taro and so on can be eaten, he picked up some big taro to eat a few meals, it should be no problem, and the weather will not go bad immediately.

While he was thinking, Fu came back, Gui told him about the cellar, and Chu Zhi listened a little worried.Fu didn't say anything, and called Chu Zhi and Se to the room after dinner.

"How about that stone?" Sure enough, Fu Yi was concerned about the stone when he opened his mouth.

"Father, the stone is at home anyway, so I won't throw it away." Se interjected beside Fu, who also stood there and dared not speak.

"Actually, can you do that stone, Uncle Fu? I'm just a child, so I really can't do it." Chu Zhi didn't dare to say that he gave Fu the credit for this matter, and iron smelting also depends on Pondering, and more trouble than the cellar.The cellar is digging, but iron smelting is really labor-intensive. Even if he and Se are combined, it is useless. This must be done by Popeye.

"Difficult?" Fu stared at Chu Zhi and saw that he was not lying, so he couldn't help frowning.

"It's not difficult, it's quite difficult. Fu said, let me tell you that it's my hometown... I mean that people with great strength rely on other things for assistance." For example, machines, universal electrical appliances . "But your strength, I think, is not bad. If you are in a hurry, we will come to smelt iron tomorrow, but you will not be able to go out tomorrow."

"Must I?" Fu is the patriarch of the tribe, and every time he goes out to find food, he will lead everyone to go together.The first is to let everyone have morale, and the second is also a symbol of glory. "I'm going to find food, I'm letting the others stay."

"Uncle Fu, this thing can only be done by you, really. You are the patriarch, this thing is really made, it is most suitable for you to be the first to see it. And this thing is very powerful, it can be used like a stone I make a lot of things, but they are much harder than stones." Chu Zhi wanted to explain the benefits of iron, but it was very abstract, and they had never seen iron, so what should I say.

"Can that be used as a weapon?" The color was very novel, but Dad didn't let him speak.After Chu Zhi said it, he couldn't help but ask again.

This question also attracted Fu's attention. Weapons, which are tools for defeating other ethnic groups, are also a must for being able to have food.

"Much stronger than weapons made of stones and sticks." Chu Zhi looked at Fu very seriously, although he was nervous.This rich and long one is really good, if you want to change it to a modern one, it will be a handsome man.But what Chu Zhi likes is the cute little boyfriend, for someone like Fu, it will only make him have an urge to escape.But no, he is a man, how could he be defeated by bastards!

Fu looked at Chu Zhi with interest, he had never seen such a courageous child.It's hard for people to think of the current Chu Zhi, he is the kid who was discarded by the river, so thin that he may die at any time.Fu was very happy that he saved him at that time, and his idea of ​​raising chicks was enough to prove his wisdom.

As the patriarch, Fu is also an excellent traveler. He understands that force is necessary for the tribe to survive better, but wisdom is even more necessary.What a prosperous tribe needs is to be able to survive for a long time. Once the surrounding food is lacking, they must migrate.This is what happened to many tribes. Even if there is enough food, they must guard against the attack of beasts.

There is a premonition that Chu Zhi's ideas may allow them to survive in one place for a long time, or even live on.

"Uncle Fu?" Regarding the matter of iron smelting, from the bottom of his heart, Chu Zhi really wanted to smelt it as soon as possible.After all, you can do a lot of things with iron, at least you can make a pot and fry things.Hey, you can also get a knife or a sword, anyway, it's better than a stone.

"What do you need to prepare?" Fu asked.

Sure enough, he is worthy of being an adult. The IQ of this father and his son are really not the same.Look, this is called wisdom, and this is the boldness that a leader should have.

"A tank of water, a lot of water, and thick wooden piles, a lot. There are also stones, large stones and pile stones." The iron meteorites are burned in the kiln, and the unused components are burned first.The pile stone actually looks like a hammer, but it is made of stone, which is at least seven or eight times larger than the modern iron hammers.

"it is good."

The author has something to say: Se: Daughter-in-law, you see, I made a new pot out of iron, and it is solid.

Chu Zhi: The weather is bad today, I decided to cook for a few days...
