Chapter 79
Haitang sat next to the stove, looking at the red-hot iron, which became soft when it was burned, Shi Ming immediately took it out and beat it with the stone hammer he had made.
However, the hammer broke several times, so I couldn't help but frowned, "This thing is really stiff, even if it's soft, I'll break a few with a stone hammer." Haitang looked at it and nodded.
Shi Ming's craftsmanship is not mentioned, he is the best at polishing things, and Haitang will teach him how to do it, and the other party will soon find inspiration.
A huge piece of iron, after being burnt, almost turned into small pieces, just enough to be made into a knife, a bit long, about fifty centimeters in length, and Haitang told me how thin the blade was.
After the knife was finished, put the knife into the water, and Haitang came out and took a look at it. Although it was not satisfactory, it was sharpened by someone on the stone a few times, and the sharpness was not bad.
"This is a good thing." Haitang said, Shi Ming looked at it, and couldn't help but hold it in surprise and looked at it, the iron knife was sharper than other stone tools even if it was forged for the first time.
Under such circumstances, Shi Ming liked it very much, but he still gave it to Haitang. Haitang happily took the knife and went back. When she got back, she cut the rope with the animal skin and wrapped it around the handle of the knife.
He took a look at it, and chopped it not far away, and the effect was good, "Xiaolong...you come here." Hearing this, Dongfang Long came over with food not far away.
"Here, be careful, this thing is very sharp." Haitang said, "I originally planned to give it to my father, but after being folded into a beastman, the fighting power is even stronger, and it is useless to hold it. You are different. "
Dongfang Long was slightly taken aback by Haitang's words, and he picked it up and began to look at it, "Yeah." After touching it with his hand, it was a good thing, and he felt happy, "This is iron, it's a knife."
"Iron?" Hearing this, Dongfang Long looked at it, and immediately wanted to put it on his waist happily. Haitang asked the other party to wrap it with something so as not to hurt himself, Dongfang Long nodded.
Haitang just went to eat, and Xiao He cooked food by herself when Haitang left. When she was eating, Shi Hu also looked at the knife, but did not refute what Haitang said to Dongfang Long, "You just take it."
Dongfang Long is good at fighting, and it's not as good as becoming an orc himself. It's good to keep good things for self-defense. When he heard this, Dongfang Long nodded.
The next day, Haitang went out with a basket on her back to see what could be collected. When Haitang saw fish, she grabbed some fish and threw them back into the water tank.
But as far as the food in the house is concerned, there is really a lot of small fish. Winter is coming soon, and people from the Snake Tribe have come to find fault once.
They were discovered by the people of the Tiger tribe before they approached, and they immediately joined the battle, and the opponent was caught off guard. Under such circumstances, the people of the Snake tribe went back in despair. Of course, there was one more thing, that is, winter came. The people of the Snake tribe will become more and more difficult to move.
Under such circumstances, the people of the Snake Tribe were even more afraid to find fault. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Haitang began to think about things in this winter.
"Mr. System, tell me, what should I do if I want iron?" Haitang asked. After hearing this, Mr. System rarely gave Haitang an answer.
[Points exchange, how many points do you currently have?] Hearing this, Haitang looked up. He has more than 100 points, and Haitang is searching for iron.
Finding that there are indeed raw materials, "Fifty points is really a black heart." Haitang couldn't help but twitched the corners of her mouth, but she also felt helpless, and nodded directly to order.
If iron can be obtained, it will be easier to make various things at that time. Iron is a necessary tool for the development of this world.
But Haitang, in this case, there is something that bothers me more than iron, and that is the car, the cart...
Haitang wanted a cart, so she asked Shi Ming who was the most skillful in the tribe, and Haitang planned to let the other person make a cart for her.
When he heard this, Shi Ming was slightly taken aback, "What is a car?" He was a little puzzled, but Haitang smiled.
"Of course it's a useful car." Haitang is thinking about this car day and night. When she has a car, she can use a horse, and people can sit on it much more easily.
Hearing this, Shi Ming nodded, "There is a person who loves wood very much, but... I don't know if he starved to death."
Wood is a thing that cannot be eaten or used. Under such circumstances, I don't know if it is dead.
Whoever wants a table in the family is the same as those who don't make their own beds, so few people pay too much attention to this so-called carpenter at the moment.
If there is no source of income, then they can only starve to death, Haitang nodded, "Then take me to have a look." After you make your own things, others will like them at that time.
When he heard this, Shi Ming looked at Haitang, "You girl can toss things." Not only can you toss, but you also want to toss.
Haitang also smiled helplessly, the wheels of a car look simple, and it just so happened that the wheels gave her a headache, but she asked a carpenter to figure it out.
When it is made, the distance can be saved, and the horse-drawn cart can be brought back directly at that time. Last year's planks are not reliable.
Haitang went directly to find this person, Shi Ming led the person to knock on the door, and looked in the room, there were small things everywhere, and there were all kinds of wooden utensils and weapons.
However, it is obvious that if the weapon is made of wood, it can only be opened and hung, and it is considered a powerful murderous look.
"Qiao Yu didn't expect you to be alive, I thought you were dead." Looking at the person who opened the door, Shi Ming said.
Qiao Yu looks about 40 to [-] years old, and looks much older than Shi Ming. Shi Ming eats delicious food these days, and has a wife, so his breath is getting better and better, and he is getting more and more energetic.
"It's you, what's the purpose of coming here?" Knocking on the door, he said indifferently, not very interested in the person who came, Shi Ming immediately smiled when he heard this.
"It's my niece who asked you to do something. She said that if you come up with the research, she will give you a pig from her family." After hearing this, Qiao Yu looked at Haitang.
"A little female, can she be the master of the house?" Qiao Yu seldom went out and didn't pay attention to the outside affairs, so she didn't know, but frowned at Haitang.
"Of course, we Tangtang can make the decision, so I'll ask you if you want it or not." Looking at Qiao Yu, Shi Ming said, Qiao Yu pursed his lips and nodded when he heard this.
"Okay." And in the room, there was another little one, a little orc holding Qiao Yu's thigh.
Haitang looked at the other party a little surprised, Haitang took out the prepared snacks for the other party to eat, the little orc shivered, looked at Qiao Yu, Qiao Yu nodded before he dared to take it.
"What do you want me to do? If I can't do it, then I want the pig too." Qiao Yu looked at Haitang and said, Haitang nodded immediately, and Shi Ming smiled immediately.
"Qiao Yu, you don't know, right? My niece... is Haitang, which is booming in the village, the wheat ones..." Hearing Shi Ming's words, Qiao Yu was stunned for a while. He heard that the village There is a girl in there who is amazing.
He also has wheat at home. He has no females, so he can only get more wheat back. With wheat at home, he is not hungry now, and the problem is not much. If he has a pig, then he will It can also be eaten with meat.
Haitang immediately took out the leaves, which showed a car, and the wheel that Haitang had now was imitated from the dumper, and the painting was very clear.
Haitang smiled, the wheels on the dumper are all the same, and the internal structure is similar, so there should be no problem, as long as the wheels are wheels.
Seeing the thing on it, Qiao Yu frowned, wondering what the purpose of this thing is? "It's a big project, just this wood, you have to get it for me, and I also need sausages." Looking at Haitang, Qiao Yu said, "Oil..."
Hearing this, Haitang knew that Qiao Yu probably had the bottom line, "Okay, I'll bring you a small jar of oil, and I'm bringing you a sausage." The pig said at the beginning, "I will do it too." Here it is, regardless of whether it is a boar or a sow."
"Okay." After hearing this, Qiao Yu nodded, and Haitang was also happy to give the blueprint to the other party, and then went back to find Shi Hu and asked Shi Hu to get a tree for herself.
"Shu, good..." Hearing this, Shi Hu nodded and went out with Dongfang Long. He didn't ask his daughter what he wanted to do, but just chose to trust her.
He understands... Smart is not smart. Right now, his daughter can manage the house in an orderly manner. From this point, he can see that his daughter is definitely better than him.
Under such circumstances, he quickly cut down trees and sent them to Qiao Yu's house. The snow did not fall too fast in winter, because the snow lasted for six months, so it has been half a month into winter, and it has not yet fallen. Snow.
It's just that the weather outside was terribly cold. Under such circumstances, Haitang and the others wore thick clothes to go out. The cart was handed over to Qiao Yu, and Haitang also went to see it every day. The other party did a good job.
Stones are used for polishing. Although there is no iron, the orcs and humans in this world are strong enough to make anything quickly. The sausages sent by Haitang are used for oil. At present, they are making food for their little ones at home. Nephew eats.
Qiao Yu and her eldest brother originally lived together, but the latter two brothers got a woman. At the beginning, Qiao Yu's eldest brother was a beastman, but later died unexpectedly, and the child Qiao Yu was raised.
The female also ran away and remarried directly. Regarding the matter of remarriage, there was not much trouble in the village, and he did not have the opportunity to have a sister-in-law, but the sister-in-law would come back to look after the children.
It's just that it's much better once or twice. The orcs of the other party know that they slapped the other party directly, but they didn't come.
Haitang watched the scooter take shape day by day, and became more and more happy, so she pulled it up immediately, "Not bad." Although it was a bit heavy and less flexible, the effect was very good.
"You can make it and put it not far away. When winter is over, there will be females who will like it when they see it. How can I say that with this thing, several people don't need to carry it, and it can be directly loaded on the car.
"You're right." Hearing this, Qiao Yu nodded, "Can you let me use it for others?"
"Of course." Haitang said, "Next time I come to ask for one, you have to give me a discount." Haitang said, letting Dongfang Long pull him back.
"Xiaolong, I'll sit on it." Haitang sat on the car, all made of wood, as for the seams, they were nailed with wooden thorns, of course not only that, they were also tied together with rattan.
This kind of rattan is very good, even if it is blown by wind and rain for many years, it is impossible to break easily. When Haitang looked at it, she was very satisfied. Dongfang Long lifted it up, "Be careful, yes, just do it like this, and then pull..."
There is a rope rubbed with animal skin on the handlebar, hanging on Dongfang Long's shoulder, and then let the other party press the handlebar and pull it gently, Dongfang Long can't feel too much weight.
"It's very light, and it's easy to walk." Dongfang Long said, and Haitang nodded. Of course it's very light, and it's easy to walk. "In the future, you can use this cart when you go picking. It's fast and light."
"That's right, it took a lot of things to pay back." Haitang said, with this car, it can save a lot of labor when going out in the future.
Hearing this, Dongfang Long nodded, "The little pony?"
"Use it to pull, and let the pony go when the time comes. In this way, you don't need to use your feet, and the speed will be much faster." The carriage is faster than people, Dongfang Long also nodded, and after pulling it back, Shihu and others Everyone looked at it and was very satisfied.
Haitang looked at the foals not far away, they were all waist-high now, beasts always grow fast, and the foals will be ready for use in spring.
Erha and Xiaoha have now directly become wolves, not wolf cubs, they stand not far away and look ferocious, of course they follow the real Erha when they see their master, which arouses the envy of many orcs.
The three wolves in the tribe are also well-raised. In the future, they will have a lively wolf guard. Seeing the safety of the tribe, Haitang went to see these wolves, and they looked good and fierce.
When Haitang's cart came back, he made a saddle. The saddle was similar to what he made last time. Shi Hu could handle it by himself.
Thinking about what Haitang said, he also closed his eyes and thought about it, and he really felt good, it's okay for the orcs to go far, but it's really tiring for the problem females to go far.
Moreover, the female's footsteps are too slow. The orcs walked for half an hour, and the female said it would take at least two hours. Under such circumstances, one can imagine how big the difference is.
If you come back with something on your back, the fatigue and load will add up to the female's physical exertion, so the transportation tool is very important. Once the Haitang's transportation tool comes out, other females will of course want it.
If you want it, you will go to Qiao Yu. This is a business opportunity. Although the orc thinks he doesn't need it, Shihu actually smiled. After becoming a beast, he can also pull the cart, which is easier than carrying it by himself. too much.
With the development of science and technology, the spinning wheel is too delicate, not as simple and rough as the cart, so there is no way to make the spinning wheel now.
