Return to Primitive Society and Become a Chief

Usma calculated it in her heart for a long time, then raised her head and said, "Okay, it seems to be the truth."

The thief asked Usma: "Now, I'm still worried about whether we can build a house?"

Usma smiled slyly: "No, no more worry, no more worry."

As he said, Usma hissed again: "Master Patriarch, I still have something to say."

Ji thief looked at him: "You said."

Usma said, "How can we let the Lin tribe buy our spear thrower?"

Listening to Usma's words, the thief only felt that this seemed to be an insult to his IQ.

"Usma, let me ask you, what kind of weapons are you using for a large mountain range?"

"Wooden spear."

The thief clapped his hands: "This is no more. Everyone uses the most primitive wooden spear. We are now buying spear throwers out of the country. We still guarantee that every tribe and every tribe can use a weapon. For you , A spear thrower with five throwing spears only requires two antelopes. Can you buy it? Let’s not talk about war with other tribes. Even if you don’t go to war with other tribes, you can use the spear thrower to catch prey. ?"

Seeing Usma's dumbfounded look, Ji Pirate concluded: "This is the rudimentary form of trade. Now the prey is in our hands. In this era, the prey is currency. We control the currency, one in and one out. The prey was still in our hands, but we got everything we needed."

Usma weakly asked the thief: "But the patriarch, isn't the trade you talked about in exchange for each other's needs. If you say it, it's not trade."

Ji Zei rolled his eyes, and said that he couldn't explain it clearly to you, right?

"You don't need to worry about these, you just need to remember that the prey is still our prey. We just used a few hundred spear throwers to exchange for a house where everyone can live, understand?" Ji Thief said: "One shot With the spear and five throwing spears, how much wood can be used? These hundreds of them together don’t use fifty trees. But seventy-five houses require seven thousand five hundred trees. The difference between one and the other is almost for nothing, which means that we have also incurred a little manual cost. As for the flying stone cable, it is easier to make, so let’s not say it. But you know why these things are only We can make it, and only we can sell it?"

Usma said: "Other tribes can't do it."

The thief slapped his slap: "Yes, this is the advantage of monopoly. We help other tribes to improve their combat effectiveness, and the price is to collect some prey. Waiting for the copper ore to be refined into currency, then we can gradually replace the prey with currency , This point, understand?"

Usma thought for a long time: "I understand, but there is still some patriarch."

"You said."

"If the fighting power of other tribes has increased, will it pose a threat to us? Master patriarch, as you know, our Lihuo tribe has strong fighting power. Apart from the large number of people in the tribe, the most important thing is the spear thrower." Wu Sima said.

The thief looked at Usma happily: "Would I not make bows and arrows without a spear thrower? Wouldn't I be able to make a catapult without a bow and arrow? Without a catapult, I can still make crossbows and crossbows. . Learn to order Usma, we have some ideas here," Ji Zei pointed to his forehead and said.

Usma was silent.

"Well, if there is no problem, we will classify these woods. From tomorrow, we will build the house."

Usma nodded.

That night, the thief gathered everyone together to discuss the issue of building a house.

Today is just the beginning. The number of trees may not be too much, but as time goes by, the trees sent by other tribes will gradually increase. At that time, relying on an engineering department will not be enough. .

Therefore, Ji Zei's idea is that except for the hunting department and the resource department, all other departments in the tribe must be invested in the construction of the tribe.

Army Fighting Army, I'll take a guest role as a worker in this period of time.

All the people in charge agreed happily. On the court, only the two of them couldn't get up.

One is a witch, the other is Manglietia.

These two were here to join in the fun. At the beginning, Ji Thief didn't say to invite the two of them over for a meeting, but when they were looking for someone to call Xue Xue, they happened to be there, and they followed.

Although it's coming, when everyone expressed their opinions at the meeting, it seemed that the two of them were a bit redundant.

Looking at the people in charge who were working together in the past, the witch's mood was more or less complicated.

Mulian kept staring at Awei during the process. You must know that Awei was an ordinary member of her clans before, but now she has transformed into a celebrity in front of Ji Thief. This difference in mood can be imagined. .

"Since everyone has no opinion, then, starting tomorrow, our construction site will officially start."

Ji Thief didn't notice the emotions of the two of them, and said with a clap.

Everyone cheered.

There was no word at night, and the next morning, people from the Ministry of Agriculture were busy weeding and sorting out the places that needed to be built.

The two departments of the Army Fighting Army moved trees back and forth.

For example, the four departments of public security, logistics, medical care and trade are all blatantly peeling and polishing each tree to make it look like a house.

At the end, it was transferred to the engineering department to carve and shape the trees that need tenon and tenon joints, and make the final preparations.

After all this was done, the two departments of the military fighting army began to excavate the foundations and make wooden stakes under oak trees.

The thief did not intend to build a high-rise house at the beginning. Although he said that this would save trees more, but in comparison, if you do this, the foundation will be shallower, so the house is not strong. , It collapses easily.

Therefore, Ji Zei’s method is to cut the fifteen-meter-long oak tree in two, without cutting seven or eight meters, and lower it halfway into the ground, leaving half on the ground, removing the 50 centimeters in the air, and three points The height of the house is five meters.

In this way, the people who live in the cave will not feel a little depressed under the house. And such a deep foundation can also make the house stronger.

After a busy day, the entire tribe was operating together, and it was nothing but the foundation of three farm-shaped houses. As for the bottom, roof and walls of the house, it didn't even do anything.

In the evening, everyone was sitting together and beating their legs and waist: "Oh, I'm so exhausted today. I peeled so much bark."

"It's okay for you, just peeling the bark, we are moving the wood and digging down the hole, what's the next thing, what did the patriarch said?

Several members of the tribe cast a glance at him disdainfully: "That is called foundation."

"Yes, it's just laying the foundation, isn't it tiring than you?"

"Pull it down, your combat department eats a lot, why don't you say that."

"···"

Listening to the conversation of the people in the ears, the thief couldn't help laughing, and turned to ask Usma: "How many trees did the Chief Lin send today?"

Usma groaned: "Each tribe sent more than forty roots today, and the total is more than 200 roots."

Ji Thief was slightly surprised: "Not bad, the speed is getting faster and faster, keep it up."

Everyone nodded.

After eating, everyone rested again.

The next day, it was the same job again.

In the past few days, it can be said that the Lihuo tribe has not been idle from top to bottom.

With so many people, adding up to more than 20 days of work, they have finally laid the foundations of all the seventy-five field-shaped houses.

In addition, trees and materials sufficient to build twenty farm-shaped houses are also piled up.

As for the remaining ones, they are all wood that has not been transported over and has not been processed.

"Everyone has been a little busy lately, Usma, please report the statistics. How many houses can we build now."

Ji thief swallowed a mouthful of water and asked.

Usma nodded and hummed: "There are currently fifty houses stored in the tribe, and the materials for 20 of them have been prepared."

The thief nodded when he heard the words, and thought about it carefully: "Let down the materials that have not been processed first, and do it first. The weather has turned cold recently. If the house is not ready, the people will get sick. After these twenty rooms are completed, let the women live in first, and our elders will lie on the ground and then deal with them."
