MTL - Be a Leader In a Primitive Tribe-Chapter 45

Considering that these kangs need to bear a relatively heavy weight, and not many bricks are needed, Sang Yu finally decided to let Daxue and others cooperate to burn a batch of fire bricks to build the kang.

The bricks used to build the kang can be smaller. But a larger adobe had to be burned on top as a kang surface.

It is also necessary to make a mold first, then mix the clay and hay evenly, pour it into the mold to make a brick or a kang surface, dry it in the shade, and then burn it.

Thirteen people can sleep on a kang, and according to the activity space of one person and one meter, a thirteen-meter kang is needed.

Nowadays, to make a thirteen-meter-long kang, more than two kang paths need to be separated. The purpose is to support the weight of the kang surface, and the kang paths should not be too curved.

Otherwise, if the smoke is not smooth, the fire will not start, and the house will be poured with smoke, and the position of the chimney must be built higher.

When building, first use bricks to build the four sides of the kang, then make the kang road, plaster the mud, and then put the adobe kang surface on it.

Finally, wipe the entire kang hole with yellow mud, and the airtightness is no problem, and the kang is ready.

Sang Yu taught the first kang by hand, explaining while teaching, and a group of people gathered around to study.

The thirty or so people who had been following her before were no strangers to her knowledgeable talents. But these people who were rescued later gradually realized the omnipotence of the leader, and they couldn't take their eyes away.

After Sang Yu demonstrated the whole process, everyone started working in groups of six.

For the three sisters, Yan and Daxue, this thing is a bit like the cave dwelling they made before, except that the cave dwelling is round, and this one is flat. After knowing the method, several people felt that it was not difficult to make this kang, and it took a long time to hold the handle. Just finished one.

Others are a little slower, and it only takes a day and a half to go left and right.

After the kang is ready, the bamboo shed will be built.

Except for the need to burn bricks, it takes time to chop bamboo, and it takes time to carry it back, the rest is not a big deal.

Originally, Sang Yu had reserved half a month for them, but it was done in a dozen days, and the efficiency was beyond her expectation.

Of course, another reason is that there are more people and more strength. With 120 people, how much effort can it take to build a few kangs and a few bamboo houses.

Seeing that they were doing things quickly, Sang Yu drove them up the mountain to cut firewood.

The place where firewood is needed on weekdays is the kitchen, and the deaf person is enough to collect firewood.

But now that the kang has been installed, firewood will be a super consumable by then.

Moreover, the place to chop firewood cannot be near Xindi, as this is a place where many people gather, and human life will more or less affect the ecological environment. Therefore, the surrounding trees, except bamboo, should be cut as far away as possible.

One hundred and twenty people chop firewood, and one bundle is one hundred and twenty bundles per person, and there are more than 5,000 catties of firewood in one day.

But Sang Yu is a character who likes to be prepared. And this winter can't be finished, and it can be used to burn bricks after the New Year.

So under the arrangement of the leader, this group of people chopped firewood for another three days, and piled up the back of the kitchen like a hill.

So many people went up the mountain together, and the big guys chatted while chopping firewood, and went home together, which was a lot of fun.

They all know that the firewood will eventually be used on themselves.

After about a week, the kang was almost dry, and Sang Yu tried to light the kang.

It was already late November, and the weather outside was enough to make people shiver.

After burning for about ten minutes, Sang Yu asked a few people to go to the kang to test the heat of the kang.

The few people who had shrunk their necks and were so cold did not want to get down after getting on the kang. Seeing this, the others rushed to sit on it in turn.

Especially the fire in the back is getting hotter and hotter, and the kang is so warm, it is not too beautiful.

Yu also went up to try it for a while, but it was so warm that she almost fell asleep lying on it.

Sang Yu couldn't help teasing her, like a vicious tiger when she was hunting outside, but turned into a lazy kitten when she came back.

Looking at Sang Yu who was standing by the door smiling and watching everyone trying the kang, Yan grabbed Daxue and said in a low voice, "Have we not built a kang for the leader yet?"

Daxue's expression became serious when he heard this.

The leader likes to be clean and doesn't like crowds. At that time, I will definitely not climb to the kang with everyone to rest.

It's not enough to just carry it like this. Last year, the leader fell ill because of the cold.

The two murmured, found Sang Yu, and wanted to build a kang for her.

Although they wanted to surprise her, they didn't dare to enter the leader's small bamboo house without permission, so they still came to ask for her opinion.

Sang Yu was stunned for a moment. She had been busy with her own work during this time, and she was always thinking about not letting the people in the tribe freeze, but she forgot about herself.

Seeing the leader's obviously astonished expression, Yan was very moved in his heart, feeling that the leader loved them, the people below, too much.

Whatever they say, they will build one for her.

And this thing is now easy for them to do, and the kang here at the leader's place is as big as a bed, so small, it can be done in half a day.

After getting the approval of the leader, the two started working immediately. But when it was built, it was more attentive than any kang.

After the building was completed, more than a dozen bundles of firewood were moved and placed next to Sangyu's house for easy fire.

Sang Yu saw that they had learned to think about others now. And I happen to be this other person, and I feel warm in my heart.

When the days entered December, the snow began to fall one after another.

Except for the planting team, the other teams began to stop working.

Sangyu also evacuated people from the observation towers of the two peaks. In such a high mountain with such heavy snow, it would be terrible if people froze to death.

The west wall is basically built. But it is only two meters high, because the fence line is long, and it is already remarkable to be able to achieve this height.

Sang Yu plans to wait until next year before continuing to increase the height and reinforcement.

At the same time, a watchtower was also set up on the edge of the wall, and two people were arranged to guard there each time, taking turns to be on duty.

During this period, the patrol team dispatched on time every day.

However, Xuetian's patrol team is no longer limited to the usual few people, and people from the tribe have to join the team in turn.

In addition, no matter how cold it is every morning, a snowplow team must be sent to clean the snow around the house, so as not to damage the bamboo house due to the heavy snow, and to ensure that the trap in front of the low wall is not crushed, so that even if someone suddenly attacks, At least there are traps to stop the wave first.

Behind the low wall is a wooden shelf, which is convenient for stepping on and shooting.

Everything was arranged, and Sang Yu himself went to check every link to make sure everything was safe.

Little Tail Feather followed her every time, appearing in every corner of the tribe with her.

After it snowed, it started to burn the kang.

There are twenty big houses, each with about thirteen people.

The thirteen-meter kang looks long, but in fact, each person occupies a small area. Even so, it was enough to keep everyone in the tribe happy.

They can chat on the kang, do handicrafts, weave rattan baskets, weave straw sandals, etc. As long as they don't go out, the room is warm and comfortable.

These twenty thatched huts are separated for men and women, eleven of which are just right for women and children, and the remaining nine are for men.

Each room also specially arranged a small team leader to carry out daily management in it. In the past, there were not enough team leaders, so Sang Yu entrusted this errand to someone he trusted, and he would inspect each room every morning and evening.

The food is still distributed uniformly, but only the ingredients are distributed, and each house cooks by itself.

Everyone is free and happy to try cooking.

The rabbits in the farm also come in handy at this time. There are more than one hundred rabbits in five houses, and there are five or six hundred meat rabbits that can be eaten.

There are twenty houses, one rabbit per house, and twenty rabbits a day, so we can’t eat them every day.

For some animals that are caught in traps on weekdays, they are waxed to store food for the winter.

Rabbit meat and bacon are eaten together, and you can also drink a broth and eat a few pieces of meat for four or five days to satisfy your gluttony.

If cassava is full, no one will die of hunger or cold.

In a bamboo hut, Zhi is boiling rabbit soup, sprinkled **** slices and salt, and bursts of aroma come to the nostrils.

And the women who were sitting cross-legged on the kang chatting and weaving straw sandals all smacked their mouths and said it was too fragrant.

Seven of these women, including Zhi and Hong, belonged to the former Bird tribe, and four were joined by other tribes.

Lian used to be a member of a small tribe, that tribe didn't even have fifty members, and when the Eagle tribe came, they had no power to resist.

Lian's previous tribe was often starving, unable to fill their stomachs, and most of the children died young because of malnutrition from their mothers. Later, they went to the Eagle Tribe and became slaves. They were even worse than ants on the ground. Several times, Lian felt that she was going to die.

But she survived with difficulty, and the days without hope made her wonder what was the use of living.

Until she was rescued by the Phoenix Tribe, Lian felt as if she had been reborn.

She actually has her own small house, and those stinky men don't touch her on weekdays.

That day the leader said that men must shave their hair, but women don't have to. But be sure to wash it clean, and wash it with soap locust every day. It is changed to once every two to three days until there are no more lice on the head.

After being rescued and coming all the way to Xindi, Lian felt that Sangyu was like a ray of light, illuminating her life.

So she listened to Sang Yu's words and took the lead in shaving off her hair. When the women behind saw her, many of them also shaved off.

That night, she slept in her own small bamboo hut, as if she had lifted a heavy burden, feeling extremely relaxed.

That night, I slept very soundly.

Since then, Lian's gratitude and admiration for the leader has grown day by day. Now sleeping on this warm kang, she felt like she was dreaming.

"Captain Zhi, do you think if I make a pair of straw sandals for the leader, will she want it?"

Sang Yu usually wears her Martin shoes when she travels, but when she is only in the tribe, she always wears straw sandals.

It's a pity that the straw sandals are rough, and the soles of her feet are very tender, and they are sharpened when walking, which is very uncomfortable. But I still forced myself to get used to it. After all, if the pair of Martin shoes were broken, I couldn’t wear them for a lifetime.

Hearing Lian's question, Zhi took a wooden spoon and stirred the rabbit meat in the pot, thought for a while and said, "I don't know, but the leader is kind, if someone gives her something, even if she doesn't like it, she will accept it. "

After hearing this, Lian sighed and said, "I don't want to embarrass the leader, I really want to do something for her."

Zhi smiled and said: "The leader said that everyone can live well, that is the greatest thanks to her."

Lian's eyes widened: "Did the leader really say that? The leader is too kind. I heard someone say that the leader was sent by the gods, isn't it? Anyway, I think so!"

The others laughed loudly when they heard the words, and said: "You say yes, even if the leader is not sent by the gods. But he is almost the same as the gods. He can do everything, and he loves the people of her tribe so much."

"It's really lucky to come to the Phoenix Tribe."

"Now if anyone dares to say something bad about the leader, I will definitely go back and fight him hard."

"Me too, I hope the leader will live longer and be our leader forever."

"Let me tell you, I also hope that the leader will not find a man. Those stinky men are not worthy of our leader."

"The leader doesn't like them either. She would rather play with Yubai and the others on weekdays than talk to men."

"That's right, the leader is so good-looking, playing with little girls is more eye-catching than playing with men."
