The Rise of Primitive Tribes Farming

Chapter 156 Building a House and Building a Wall

After all the captives were washed and put on bark clothes, they were driven together again. Standing in front of these captives, Chen Bei felt a sense of pride in his heart.

These are all labor forces. The Mang tribe is not short of food, but they are short of labor force. These more than 1000 labor forces can make a great contribution to the development of the Mang tribe.

In this day and age, there is great power in numbers.

"I don't care what you were like in the original tribe. In our Mang tribe, unless you go out, otherwise, you have to take a bath at least once every two days."

"If you don't want to wash it, just like today, I will send a totem warrior to wash it for you!"

The captives trembled when they heard that they wanted to brush. Those totem warriors just now were not gentle at all, and they wanted to brush off a layer of human skin.

After being brushed by them, the skin is still red, and there are still marks on it.

Therefore, in order not to bother those totem warriors, these prisoners kept Chen Bei's words in their hearts, and no one wanted to repeat the experience just now.

"The second thing is that since you wear the clothes of the Mang tribe and eat the food of the Mang tribe, you have to work for the Mang tribe. From today onwards, everyone has to work. If anyone is lazy, hehe... "

Chen Bei didn't say what was the result of the lazy people, but his sneer made the prisoners tremble again, and they all regarded the heaviest punishment they could think of as punishment for being lazy.

"Shanwen, Honghua, I will give each of you a hundred totem warriors, and take these captives to build a wooden house. There is only one, and it must be spacious and strong."

The existing houses of the Mang tribe can't accommodate so many people, so they can only rely on them to build them. There is so much labor, why not make good use of it?
"Yes!"

Shanwen and Honghua immediately found someone, and then escorted the captives to build a wooden house.

Unknowingly, the status of Shanwen and Honghua in the Mang tribe has gradually improved. Of course, this is also related to their abilities, and no one can say anything.

Chen Bei said to Yun Helie again: "You continue to hunt and fish. Now that there are more people in the tribe, the food consumption is also high. The food stored in the tribe alone is not enough."

"Yes!"

Yun and Lie went back separately, led the hunting team and fishing team to work, and provided a steady stream of meat for the Mang tribe.

Soon, the entire Mang tribe was fully operational again, and everyone performed their duties, continuously providing the tribe with all kinds of things they needed.

A large number of wooden houses are built in the southeast corner of the tribe, because there is a large flat wasteland here.

These wastelands are rocky and not very suitable for farming, but they are very suitable for building houses.

"Dong dong dong..."

Pieces of the ground were cleared, then trenches were dug, the top beams were buried, and they were pounded down.

These pillars are very thick, and the most indispensable thing near the Mang tribe is wood, so there is no need to worry about choosing materials.

"Boss, why did you burn the bottom of these pillars black?"

Under Chen Bei's order, Shan Wen lit a fire, and then used the fire to burn the surface of all the pillars and the parts that were to be buried into black charcoal first.

Chen Beidao: "After burning black, buried in the ground is not easy to rot, and it is not easy to get insects. The wooden house built is more durable."

"So it is."

Shan Wen suddenly realized, and he admired Chen Bei very much in his heart.

As expected of the leader, he knows everything.

Shan Wen didn't ask any more questions, he led people to do what Chen Bei said. The pillars were erected one by one, and then the carpenters from the tribe were invited to connect these pillars with beams to form the structure of a house. skeleton.

As the saying goes, more people are more powerful. With the efforts of more than 1000 people, the skeletons of a large row of houses were built in just one day. The speed is astonishing.

At night, these prisoners spent the night in the newly built house. They lit a bonfire and spread hay in the sleeping place.

"It's time for dinner, it's time for dinner!"

The women of the Mang tribe brought a large amount of food here, and as before, they also distributed bamboo bowls and bamboo chopsticks to these captives.

Because of the large number of people, the food was not very good, and a large part of it was wild vegetables, but these prisoners were not picky. Except for the slightly painful use of chopsticks, they were satisfied with the portion of the food.

As a captive, it is the best treatment to have a full stomach and not starve to death. What taste do you want?
After eating, many prisoners fell asleep while lying on the hay. After a hard day's work, the prisoners' physical strength was exhausted.

That night, many captives dreamed about their former tribes, dreamed about all kinds of scary things, and rarely had good dreams.

Early the next morning, the work of building the house started again. Under Chen Bei's division of labor, some people were in charge of cutting down trees, some were in charge of peeling the bark, and some were in charge of digging holes and erecting pillars...

Everyone performs their own duties, and the efficiency is much better than everyone messing around and doing everything.

After all, if he does everything, he may not be able to do anything well, but he only needs to do one thing well, and he will naturally do better.

The work of building wooden houses lasted for seven or eight days. With the help of more than 1000 people, more than 100 spacious and strong wooden houses were finally built.

These huts have large logs as pillars, small logs joined together to make walls, and the top is covered with bark and bundles of hay.

Although it is very rough, it is stronger than it is. Anyway, the captives are very satisfied, which is better than the place where they lived in the previous tribe.

The Mang tribe assigned a hundred totem warriors to watch over these captives to prevent them from causing trouble or escaping.

After the house is built, it's time to build the walls.

The Mang tribe has been attacked twice by other tribes, and they will suffer some losses each time. If there is a high wall blocking it, the Mang tribe will have a barrier and will suffer less losses.

This wall must be very high and thick. It is best to build a city wall, so that the defense will be much higher.

However, given the current conditions of the Mang tribe, building a city wall is really difficult. It would take a lot of manpower and material resources to build a city wall that encloses the entire Mang tribe, which is not realistic.

Therefore, at present, Chenbei can only build a thick and simple high wall to enclose the important position of the tribe, which is good for defense, and it is not enough for people to rush into the tribe.

Chenbei summoned the important figures of the Mang tribe to discuss how to build the city wall.

"My idea is this, we use stones to build a high wall, and every short distance in the wall, there will be a hole, which can be used for shooting arrows, or you can use a spear to poke through the hole to stab the wall climbing wall enemy."

Yun and others, you look at me, I look at you, no one has any opinions, after all, no one has seen such a thing as building a wall to enclose a tribe, other tribes can only build a simple fence with wood .

Chen Bei said again: "To build a wall, we can mix stones and soil, just like building a stone house. Stones of any shape can be piled up, and the gaps can be filled with reconciled mud."

"The mud used to build the wall is the same as making mud bricks. Add a lot of grass clippings to the mud and make it right. The wall built in this way should be stronger."

……

After Chen Bei told everyone the method, everyone agreed, anyway, no one can come up with any better suggestions, and the leader can do whatever he wants.
