I am a primitive

When it was first discovered, there were as many as a dozen or so in that litter.

It's just that the speed of these little guys is really too fast. Even though they are far from mature, they walk through the grass one by one, but they are fast.

After everyone was in a hurry, they caught these three.

With experience in feeding deer, donkeys, geese, and chickens, those traveling with him naturally knew what the Son of God wanted them to do by catching such birds that could swim in water.

There is a great possibility that they will be raised like chickens and geese, and when the time comes, they will be used to lay eggs and eat them, or they will be raised directly and slaughtered for meat.

But even though they understood Han Cheng's intentions, Mao and the others who were traveling with him were not too enthusiastic about such things.

Because the tribe already has chickens and geese, two types of poultry that can lay eggs.

Of these two things, one lays eggs frequently, and the other lays very large eggs. As long as the two complement each other, it doesn't matter whether there are other birds in the tribe to supplement.

Han Cheng didn't agree with such a concept at all. He came from later generations, and he had a deep obsession with gathering chickens, ducks and geese, three kinds of leaders in the poultry world.

Moreover, if ducks are well bred, they also have a strong advantage in laying eggs.

Not only are they much bigger than eggs, but if they are fed well and have enough to eat, these guys can sometimes lay two eggs a day.

One when it was just dark, and another when it was light.

Moreover, the salted duck eggs that are marinated with red oil are also a good food, especially the duck egg yolk, which is at least comfortable to eat.

Of course, things like eggs can also be eaten with salt, but compared with salted duck eggs, they always taste a lot worse.

In addition to salted duck eggs, roast duck is also a delicious thing that people have to mention.

Han Cheng has never eaten the famous Beijing Quanjude Roast Duck in later generations, but he has eaten the ordinary roast duck sold on the street for 18 yuan a piece, and the roast duck that is said to be roasted with fruit tree charcoal for more than 30 yuan.

The outer layer is dipped in cumin and chili powder, and the baked golden skin tastes the most delicious...

Those little ducklings who are full from eating grasshoppers and lying there stretching their legs or wings from time to time, don't know that the big hairless monkey in front of them is already drooling to attack them and their offspring. , if I know it, I don’t know if I can still be as calm as I am now...

The Bronze Expressway is something that affects everyone's minds and needs to be put on the agenda as soon as possible.

When Han Cheng left, he told the stonemason Wood and the part-time coppersmith second senior brother who stayed in the tribe to let them come during this period of time and make some tools needed for road construction.

Now that the tools are complete and the route has been determined by Han Cheng, the road construction can begin.

On the second day after returning from the residential area of ​​Tongshan, in the morning, he brought some small peas to catch some grasshoppers and fed them to the ducklings. After breakfast, Han Chengcheng began to discuss with Wu, senior brother, second senior brother, Shang and others again. Regarding the road construction, and then, under the condition that the rest of the tribe's affairs can be carried out normally, they began to arrange and deploy manpower to prepare for the road construction.

More than half of the people who were drawn out to build the road were slaves of the Qingque tribe.

Such drudgery as building roads is naturally indispensable...

'Dangdangdang...'

At the quarry of the Qingque Tribe, someone knocked and lifted pieces of shale from there, and then loaded these rock pieces on a two-wheeled donkey cart parked nearby.

"what!"

With the yelling of the driver, the donkey pulling the donkey cart and the deer pulling the cart together began to work hard, pulling some stone slabs on the cart, and turning along the previously paved stone road. After turning two turns, they headed toward the west end of the Qingque tribe's field all the way.

In the farmland around the Qingque tribe, stone roads have been built long ago, and there is also a main road leading to the west side.

In the construction of the Bronze Expressway this time, the main road that had been built before was directly used by Han Cheng, and became the starting point of the easternmost side of the Bronze Expressway.

However, when this road was built, there were no two-wheeled carts in the tribe, only unicycles.

Therefore, although it is a main road, its width is only about two meters.

When the time comes, it needs to be widened.

However, because the crops in the farmland on both sides are not mature yet, starting to widen it now will destroy a lot of crops.

Therefore, the construction of the Bronze Expressway this time directly follows the main road to the west and continues westward.

As for the widening of this section of the old road, it can only be carried out after the crops in the field have been harvested.

At this time, there are many people scattered at the end of this old road.

These people held all kinds of tools in their hands, and were busy with the tasks assigned before.

Some people carried sickles, axes, saws, etc., and continued to clear the grass and trees along the wooden stakes that Han Cheng and the others had nailed when they returned, and the passages that were simply opened. space to develop.

A group of relatively high-end talents such as Lame, Shitou, Yuan, etc., under the professor of Han Cheng, used rope measures, long ropes, benchmarks, etc., along the field cleared by the people in front of them, according to Han Cheng The wooden stakes that were roughly nailed before, the road was straightened, and the exact location of the road, as well as the width of the road, were circled with lime powder.

Behind is another group of people, carrying metal tools such as copper shovels and shovels, and leveling the land along the roads they have marked with lime powder.

In the back, someone used a tool for rammed earth to pound the loose soil into a firm place and make it smooth.

On the preliminarily leveled land, some people used stone slabs pulled from the quarry to lay them.

The stone road is still more durable than ordinary dirt roads, and the road surface of the stone does not need to be rammed too hard. Han Cheng finally decided to lay a section of the stone road.

Of course, the decision was made on the premise that the distance from the quarry is not too far. Once the road extends five or six miles and the place where the road is paved is too far from the quarry, we can only start building pure Dirt road.

Of course, if a large amount of shale is found along the road, then the situation is another matter.

In fact, even the stone road is not as good as the cement road.

It's just that now the tribe can only burn limestone, and the known limestone origin is far away from the Qingque tribe. Even if cement can really be fired, at this time, according to the manpower and material resources of the Qingque tribe, they want to build It is also unrealistic to go out such a long concrete road...

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

The newly built road is four meters wide.

Counting the wheels, the donkeys in the tribe are nearly 1.4 meters wide at their widest point, and the two donkey carts add up to [-] meters. When two donkey carts meet, they need a distance of at least three meters to avoid.

If the two donkey carts that meet each other are still loaded with some things that exceed the car body, such as hay and freshly harvested grain, then the space required will be even greater.

Only a width of about four meters can be used for avoidance.

Counting the cows and horses that I don’t know if I can meet them in my lifetime, and the more spacious cars that will appear after the appearance of these animals, the road of four meters is still a bit narrow. It is best to build the road to a width of five meters .

However, after thinking about it, Han Cheng decided to set the road at four meters.

Because in this way, a lot of workload can be reduced.

As for the problem that the roads would be too narrow to pass after there were bullock carts and horse carts in the Time Tribe, Han Cheng also considered it.

That is to build an extra one-meter-wide and 15-meter-long road on one side of the road at intervals of one mile, which is similar to an emergency lane and also looks like a road where buses stop.

In this way, when two oversized cars meet and the normal road cannot be avoided, one of the cars can be parked here to give way.

Although this method is still a bit troublesome, compared with the one-meter-wide road that was less than two hundred miles away, it has saved a lot of engineering.
