Fulu Rubik's Cube

Chapter 833 Standard Ruler

From the next day, Red Silkworm began to lead people to do things according to Zhang Ke's instructions.

Among them, the young and strong were divided into hundreds of teams, managed by dozens of cronies including Shi Xiong.

Half of the people scattered to hunt, and the rest were sent to cut trees and collect various stone materials to build houses.

The old, weak, women and children staying in the tribe do what they can, such as mending, tanning animal skins, weaving grass and vines, eradicating dry thorn bushes, dealing with existing corn, and tidying up caves and the environment in the tribe.

This is an experience that Zhang Ke has never had before. At this moment, he feels like playing a civilization evolution game in a dream.

The people of the Xiawan tribe have never managed 10 people, and they don't know what to do, so they can only follow orders.

Since Zhang Ke said that they want to build houses for people to live in, they will do this first.

In fact, these former enslaved people have far more experience than the people of the Xiawan tribe in how to build houses.

This is what they do every day at 'Wuxiangfeng'.

However, they are doing things under the command of the 'Heavenly Demon', and they may understand some tricks, but they may not really understand them.

If the houses cannot be built before the weather completely turns cold, these tens of thousands of people are estimated to be frozen to death by the severe winter cold.

There are hundreds of teenagers around Shan Qiao to help, and this is what Red Silkworm dispatched to him from hundreds of thousands of people as a messenger.

And she gave Shan Qiao only one task, and that was to organize manpower to build houses.

In Shan Qiao's mind, this should be a very simple matter.

Because he has fully understood the models and drawings constructed by Zhang Ke. After all, it is just a simple residence, basically four walls and a roof.

But when many people from the tribe continued to pull back the stones and trees shoulder to shoulder and hand in hand, and Shan Qiao led a group of smug teenagers to prepare for a big fight, the cruel reality immediately gave him a blow.

The basic height of the people in the 'Shanhaijie' is about three meters, which means that the height of the house must be at least about five meters, otherwise a jump may touch the roof.

The place where the Xiawan tribe is located is very wide and flat.

The thorn bushes used as a defense have been eradicated by the fire snake leading the women and children of the clan, and houses can be built at will.

When Shan Qiao directed the 5000 people assigned to him to get busy, not to mention how difficult it was for these people to coordinate, they were stuck at the most basic step.

After digging the shallow foundation, Shan Qiao suddenly found that not only the large wooden beams he had prepared were not long or short enough, but even the stone walls were crooked, making it impossible to build the house.

Shan Qiao tried a few times, but the house he built was like a child randomly setting up stones on the ground, rickety and uninhabitable.

Shan Qiao asked Zhang Ke for advice in doubt, he didn't know how to proceed in this situation.

Hearing Shan Qiao's confusion, Zhang Ke smiled and gave him a volume of "Book of Luban".

This book is only the first volume, and does not involve spells, secret methods, etc., but only the basic operations of some mud, tile, and wood craftsmen.

Including various vertical frame house diagrams, vertical frame codes, Luban real ruler, the theory of each star, the construction of gatehouses, the taboos of Jiuliang's construction, etc.

But even so, it is not something that Shan Qiao can master in a short time.

The most critical knowledge is actually the knowledge of arithmetic and physics, and if you ask a primitive person to master this kind of thing, it is too difficult for others.

So Zhang Ke simply taught him to make ink fountains, planers, saws, chisels, files, hammers, ropes and other tools.

In addition, hundreds of rulers of the desired length were refined for him, which is what Shan Qiao needs most at present.

No rules, no standards!

A unified standard measurement tool plays a vital role in the construction.

Shan Qiao listened to Zhang Ke explaining the usage of these tools one by one, and suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment, and immersed himself in it like a fascination.

If Zhang Ke hadn't reminded him that there were still many things he needed to deal with, Shan Qiao wished that Zhang Ke would continue explaining like this forever.

Shan Qiao, who had broadened his horizons and mastered the usage of construction tools, immediately called the hundreds of teenagers accompanying him to one place, gave them a brief explanation, and then sent them to organize people to build the house.

The biggest difficulty in building this simplest house is that there is no standard size.

It is conceivable that several people work together, but everyone builds and builds according to their own estimates.

How can the materials separated in this way be able to successfully build the house.

Once Shan Qiao got a simple tool like a ruler, the situation changed immediately.

The powerful "Shanhaijie" human race showed their advantages, and they could easily carry huge beams and boulders.

A series of houses were quickly formed in the Xiawan tribe.

At this time, Hong Cang, Shan Qiao and others have no concept of overall planning, so these houses are built in a disorderly manner and are in a mess.

This time Zhang Ke didn't say a word to remind him, but just watched from the sidelines.

Just like doing a question, if you tell the student the answer but ignore the process of doing the question, then the student's knowledge is incomplete.

There are always some things that need to be experienced in order to understand.

Zhang Ke positions himself as a guide, who can guide the direction of Xiawan tribal civilization, but will not interfere in various daily life.

Just like the knowledge and ruler he imparted to Shan Yao, this crucial thing is an indispensable part of the Sairen civilization, so he will directly explain and impart.

As Zhang Ke and Bu Chan expected, the heavy snow fell in a few days.

This is the first snow in winter, which also means that there is not much time left for the Xiawan tribe to prepare for the winter.

In the tribe, countless people built houses against the wind and snow day and night.

Outside the tribe, countless tribesmen hunted all the wild animals they saw, and brought back a large amount of tuber food and dry wood.

Zhang Ke hangs in the air every day, obsessively watching a huge primitive village being built bit by bit.

At Zhang Ke's current state, wanting to improve is not only achieved by absorbing the power of heaven and earth, but also a spiritual comprehension.

In the Azure Realm, he never had the opportunity to observe the development of a race's civilization from the primitive period.

This process is as intoxicating as the creation of the world and the establishment of the rules of the world. It is conceivable that once Zhang Ke promotes the rapid development of the civilization of the human race in this world, what precious spiritual wealth will be brought to him.

Perhaps the opportunity to advance to Daojun is in this world.

The boundaries in the universe are endless like the sands of the Ganges River, but if you really want to find such a primitive star where the human race has just risen, it also needs a chance.

At this moment, Zhang Ke finally understood why Zhenjun Feihong would spare no effort to pay such a high price to lead this 'battle between dao and demons'.

After observing the Xiawan tribe for several days like opening the eyes of God, Zhang Ke understood one thing.

That is, it is difficult for the human race in this world to have a large tribe born.

In this primitive realm, the human race has not yet mastered farming techniques, which means that there is a natural shortage of food.

And the beasts in an area have limits. Even if the human race has no natural enemies, hunting alone cannot support a huge group of people.

This is good news for Zhang Ke.

Relying on this information, Zhang Ke has already taken a certain advantage in this 'Battle between Dao and Demons'.

First of all, he has 40 people, which is the foundation for the development and growth of the tribe.

Secondly, because disasters are imminent in the blue world at any time, Zhang Ke has accumulated a large amount of daily resources in his "cave sky".

If another practitioner came over, even if he was given 40 people, he would not dare to take it. Not everyone can afford to support so many people.

Thirdly, he has the knowledge in the dream, but he has systematically studied the six civilization development stages of human beings for 5000 years.

The Stone Age was the period when humans started hunting and making fire. According to Zhang Ke's knowledge, the current 'Mountain and Sea Realm' belongs to this most primitive era.

In the Bronze Age, smelting tools invented weapons, established social order and armies.

In the Iron Age, farming and animal husbandry, human productivity and fecundity are directly proportional, and various human interest groups annexed and conquered each other.

In the steam engine era, the invention of the steam engine marked the extensive use of machinery by humans. At the same time, the six parts of human philosophy, religion, culture, economy, social system, and science gradually matured and eventually human civilization changed.

The "War of Dao and Demons" has only been given a development period of 200 years, and it is impossible to fully enter the steam age in 200 years.

But for the sake of victory in this war, Zhang Ke doesn't mind forcibly upgrading some technologies.

As for the information age and the smart age, this is not what Zhang Ke wants to consider.

Zhang Ke felt that whether it was the well-prepared Zhenjun Feihong or the "Heavenly Demon" who had been in this world for 600 years, they were definitely not as good as his current situation.

The knowledge of "human development" may only be sorted out, coordinated, summarized, generalized and discussed in the environment of the dream.

Zhang Ke hung in the air, looking at the people below who were working hard like ants, a thought came to his mind.

'It seems that it is time to have a good talk with Red Silkworm about the tribe's follow-up development plan. '

night!
Inside the Zhongfeng Great Cave.

Every few days, Red Silkworm and others will gather together to discuss some recent events, the development progress of the tribe, and various difficulties encountered.

Usually Red Silkworm and others will raise many questions and difficulties and ask Zhang Ke for advice or help.

Today is no exception. Red Silkworm first described the various situations in the tribe, and then said:

"Layman, the weather is getting colder and colder, the hunting range is getting bigger and bigger, and it is getting harder and harder to catch prey.

In the past few days, more than 300 people have been killed or injured by the clansmen who went hunting. Among them, except for a few who were injured by monsters and wild animals, most of the clansmen died of frostbite.

Thousands of houses have been built now. If you squeeze them together as much as possible, plus the Wufeng Cave, it should be enough for the tribe to live in.

But the animal skins to keep out the cold are not enough for the clansmen to survive this winter. I don't know if the layman can do it? "

While talking, the red silkworm looked at a small person beside Zhang Ke.

This is a woman who is much shorter than Zhang Ke, wearing a gorgeous gold and red robe with twelve tassels hanging down her waist.

Although she is not tall, her figure is exquisite and undulating.

The skin can be broken by blowing bombs, it is delicate and glows like beautiful jade, there are obviously a pair of big eyes, but it is always difficult to open them in a daze.

At this time, the short woman rested her hands on her chin, dozing off on the back blade of a golden-red sickle that was bigger than her.

The red silkworm and the fire snake looked at the woman's delicate skin that could squeeze out water with envy.

This kind of skin will never appear on the female human race in the 'Mountain and Sea Realm'.

At the same time, the red silkworm was also a little curious. It had been more than ten days since Zhang Ke returned to the Xiawan tribe again.

It was the first time she saw this woman, and she didn't know where this strange woman came from.

At this moment, there are not only six people including Red Silkworm and Stone Bear appearing in the cave.

There are more than a dozen enslaved people who performed well in these days and were recognized by the red silkworm as the managers of the tribe.

After Zhang Ke waited for the red silkworm to finish speaking, he introduced it first.

"Her name is Vientiane. In the future, she will be needed to help in some places, but she will not participate in the development of the tribe."

When Wanxiang heard Zhang Ke calling his name, he reluctantly opened his eyes, let out a soft 'huh', and dozed off again leaning on the giant scythe.

Seeing Wanxiang's dazed look, Hong Cang couldn't help but look at each other in dismay.

This little woman is not as tall as her calf, so how can she help her!

However, everyone would naturally not say such words, and just responded to show that they knew.

Zhang Ke then said:
"Now that it's winter, it's really no longer suitable for the clansmen to hunt outside. Besides, wild animals have to rest and recuperate. Otherwise, when the spring is warm and the flowers bloom, the clansmen of the tribe will have nothing to eat."

Red Silkworm and the others still understand the principle of inexhaustible water.

If it weren't for the hundreds of thousands of mouths waiting to be fed in the tribe and the lack of countless resources, the Xiawan tribe would not be able to go hunting after the snow fell.

After all, Zhang Ke made it clear that there is a limit to the food in the 'granary urn', and the more you can accumulate, the more you can count.

In the past, people in the current tribes have long been hiding in warm caves and fighting.

"Later, I will open the second restriction of [Thousand Gold Chariot and Horse Scroll], and I can extract fur clothes to keep out the cold."

Without waiting for Red Silkworm and the others to show joy on their faces, Zhang Ke said again:
"But these are just measures of rights and interests. When the greenery covers the land, I will take back the [Thousand Gold Chariots and Horses Scroll], and the tribe will also pay back the consumed resources bit by bit."

Red Silkworm couldn't help turning bitter when he heard this.

There are 40 people in the tribe now, and they don't know how much food they will consume this winter.

She had calculated with Shan Qiao before, but the result made her have nightmares for several days.

If she really wanted to pay it back, she didn't even have the courage to calculate how many years it would take, and she even suspected that she would never be able to pay back these resources.

Looking at the expressions of everyone present, Zhang Ke found that some of them had the same expressions as the red silkworm, full of embarrassment and bitterness.

And some people are thinking about something thoughtfully.

Zhang Ke once again determined that the red silkworm did not have the ability to become the leader of the big tribe.

"Shan Qiao, what are you going to do if you encounter this kind of thing?"
