Steampunk City [Infrastructure]
Chapter 27 City Fountain Square
The next day, I didn't immediately go to the ruins to start construction.
Because, first, Luo Zhan officially became the wise man of the Xietong tribe, such a major event requires a ceremony.
Second, there is no water source in the ruins, and the volcanic ash cannot be used to collect the needed bricks.
Therefore, Luo Zhan began to formally teach the Xietong tribe to fire pottery pipes. A large number of pipes was not enough for Luo Zhan to burn casually in the past.
What's more, the ruins are very far away from the sky-reaching river. A steam engine pump can't pump water here at all, so one has to be used at intervals.
Third, you need a hoe to dig the foundation. It is impossible to plan by hand.
Sharpening knives does not miss woodcutters.
By the time the Xietong tribe started to fight against the pipes, steam pumps, and hoes to go to the ruins, it was already half a month later.
In the past half month, Luo Zhan has not been idle. In addition to making more steam pumps, he asked the manager for some wild animal skins, boiled them and dried them in the sun to turn them into dry leather materials that can be written on.
Luo Zhan hid in the cave again.
When he came out, each piece of animal skin was full of words, all of which were recorded by him after consulting the computer, such as how the volcanic ash was poured into bricks, and what proportion could make the poured bricks harder and more durable. wind and rain.
Also, the four pictures he originally drew were just renderings. He had to plan the size of each wall, each pillar, and even each brick on the ground.
Therefore, when Luo Zhan came out, the animal skin full of records was hugged in his arms, almost blocking his head.
"Let's go." The manager looked at the ready crowd and said.
When everyone heard this sentence, they couldn't help being inexplicably excited.
For the past half month, they have been looking at the four pictures on the mountain wall every day, imagining how majestic and beautiful their city will be after they are built.
They found that they looked at the "rendering picture" tomorrow, but they still couldn't imagine what such a city would look like.
Because I've never seen it before, I know it's something spectacular, but I still can't draw a specific picture in my mind.
And the children of various ethnic groups who came here, looked at the pottery pipes that the Xietong tribe was resisting for a while, and looked at the animal skin pictures hanging on the mountain wall for a while.
"Ah, what are you doing?"
"You guys are talking about it."
They were more excited than the people of the Xietong tribe, because they always felt that the people of the Xietong tribe were doing something earth-shattering.
It's a pity that no one has time to pay attention to them, and they are so anxious that they jump.
These days, they also spread the news back to their own tribe, for example, Luo Zhan became a wise man of the Xietong tribe, but no one believed it, because no matter how powerful Luo Zhan was, he was still a foreigner to the Xieyong tribe.
This is completely unprecedented and impossible and unbelievable.
So the negative decision actually caused quite a stir in the Xietong tribe, but every time they saw those four pictures, no one could offer any rebuttal opinions.
That was what they were all waiting for in their souls, how could they refute it?
There are also four pictures, and the children of all ethnic groups will naturally tell their tribes, but they can't describe what they see in words, and the content sent back becomes so strange that no one pays attention to it.
Unexpected, yet seemingly expected situation.
Luo Zhan didn't care much about these children sending news to their own tribes, because the things he wanted to build couldn't be hidden, and the camps of all tribes were in the ruins, how could they not be seen?
So the situation became a little strange. Everyone on Luo Zhan's side was so excited that they couldn't help themselves, but there was no reaction on the other side of the ruins.
Luo Zhan found that the team was much larger than before, so he couldn't help but look at the leader.
Ling Xi said, "Not long ago, when the water source was sufficient, I sent people back to send a message to let more tribesmen come to this area. It happened that they just arrived."
Now that the city is going to be built, in fact, the bearer has asked people to go back to bring letters, so that more Xietong people can come.
The large tribe has a larger population than Luo Zhan imagined.
On the way, a group of children was very strange, because for no reason, the two of them were walking, and suddenly they kicked their calves, hugged each other and screamed excitedly.
The people around are still taking it for granted.
If it weren't for their embarrassment, they would be more excited than these children.
Luo Zhan: "..."
Do you know how scary it is when two people suddenly hug each other and shake their heads?
The first time he almost fell off the snake mother's head in fright.
Later, he got used to it, because the frequency was too frequent. When he stepped down from the snake mother to rest, he could suddenly hold a "wise man wise man" on his lap and scream loudly when announcing the good news and the funeral.
Luo Zhan: "..."
As soon as they came to the ruins, Luo Zhan and Xiang Xi led people to bury the pipes.
This place is different from the volcano in Luo Ran. There are few people in the volcano, and it doesn’t matter if the pipes are exposed to the ground. There are many people here, so they have to be buried underground to be safe.
Moreover, his urban construction itself had to include a water supply system, so water pipes couldn't be scattered all over the city.
For the first time, the children of various ethnic groups who had been following Luo Zhan left, and they almost ran back to their own clan's camp at the fastest speed.
Excited.
As a result, those tribesmen are still happily building stone houses.
They were so anxious that they rolled on the ground, thinking that their side was a mess of stone houses, and next door was the miraculous city in the picture, they couldn't stop in a hurry.
Some were stubborn, rolling on the ground while knocking down the stone houses one by one, because it was useless to repair them.
In the end, it is conceivable that the buttocks are all opened up.
"What did you tell us last time that Luo Ran from the Li tribe became the wise man of the Xietong tribe?"
"You really dare to say, do you know what a wise man is?"
How did these kids go crazy after going out for a trip?
When these children get together again, the hammerheads will follow the defeated rooster in frustration.
"Why?"
Why no one believes them.
Different views, different positions, different ideas.
The height of thought determines the height of a person.
Although Luo Zhan didn't teach them anything these days, he showed them a wider world. What's more important than this?
At this time, Luo Zhan and Ling Xi were leading the people of the Xietong tribe to dig and bury the channel for the water pipe.
Luo Ran looked a little pale at the Xietong tribe who was approaching the sky-reaching river.
A tentacled monster like a mountain was emerging from the river, lasers were shooting, the monster was neighing, and the people of the Xietong tribe wanted to get closer to the river in this fierce battle.
No one flinched.
The battle was very fierce.
This also made Luo Zhan truly realize that this world is a world of giant beasts, and even a huge tribe like the Xietong Ancient Clan is just struggling to survive in the gaps of giant beasts.
Human beings have had a hard time.
Negative Xie also frowned, because too fierce fighting would only attract more ferocious giant beasts.
In the end, it was only possible to barely put a section of pipe into the river.
It is impossible to get a trench-buried pipeline, and the situation is worse than what Luo Zhan expected.
Luo Zhan also knew why the major ancient tribes were so short of water in the past, and humans did not have the slightest advantage in the struggle against this sky-reaching river.
Fortunately, the behemoth has no interest in these inanimate pipes.
It can only expose the pipeline in this section of the river.
When Luo Zhan and the others started to leave, a big fish in the water, covered in spells like stars, was biting the tentacle giant beast that was still showing off its might just now, making it impossible for the other party to break free. The fish was still staring at the leaving Xietong tribe with its huge eyes. If it wasn't for the giant tentacled beast, it would have chased after it.
The people of the Xietong tribe seem to be used to such scenes, but Luo Zhan's hairs are standing on end. The existence that was at the top of the food chain just now has directly become the food in the mouths of other creatures.
There are too many unknowns in the wild, which is more terrifying than he imagined, or a little more awe, it is also true.
The rest of the road is much easier.
Luo Zhan also saw the benefits of more people and more strength. Each part of the people was responsible for a certain distance, and then excavated.
The hole dug does not need to be too deep, because the pipeline is not too big, otherwise, even with the help of the entire Xietong Ancient Clan, such a long distance would be too time-consuming and troublesome.
Pottery pipes are also fired from the volcano and sent over.
A week later, with the buzzing of the steam engine, the ruins finally had water.
Luo Zhan and Salmon were washing there with basins, and the beautiful water splashed everywhere.
In hot weather, washing your face and feet will cool you down.
This water source is not provided to other tribes, because the Xietong ancient tribe made it themselves, and other ancient tribes still have to go to the volcano to get water.
Moreover, they will need a lot of water right away, and it is true that they don't have much to supply to others.
The appearance of the water source has attracted the attention of other ethnic groups. If there is no water source from the volcano to supply them, there may be another dispute.
With water, all that's left is volcanic ash.
The bearer took Luo Li to the nearest volcano. There is a lot of volcanic ash, and the quantity is not a problem at all. This continuous volcano is the best output.
The difficulty is how to transport them to the ruins.
Negotiator frowned, "Is it necessary to use this sand?"
"If it's stones, it's easier to transport, even if the clansmen can move them one by one, but this sand..."
And how to build the city in the sand, this is also something that Liao doesn't understand.
Luo Zhan knew what it meant to carry the sand, but the sand was not easy to transport.
But it's useless to move the stone back. The stone is irregular. Who will beat it into the required square shape?
Maybe he can cut the stone into the desired shape with a spell, but can he still cut the stone for building a city?
When manpower runs out.
Seeing that Luo Xi was frowning, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up. He really thought that he stayed in the cave to check the information these days for nothing.
He must have thought about such a big problem of transportation.
He beckoned to the salmon who was holding a large pile of animal skins next to him.
Salmon ran over happily, because he had seen all the animal skins in his arms, and they were all written on them. Although he couldn't understand them, he felt that they were all great things of their Li tribe, and the little patriarch taught him something. , he has to keep it.
Seeing that everyone is trying to snatch him, Salmon is extremely vigilant.
Luo Zhan took out a piece of animal skin from the middle, "Transportation is not a problem."
There are a lot of text annotations on the animal skin, and I can't understand it, but they should all describe a strange pattern drawn on the animal skin.
Luo Zhan said, "This thing is called a chicken bus. We just need to make it, put volcanic ash on the chicken bus, and let the people push it back along the way. The chicken bus can save a lot of energy."
They are here on a plain, Luo Zhan also noticed it when they came here, the road is actually very flat, just fill in the potholes a little bit.
As for the weeds on the road that affect the cart, it is not a big problem to let the snake mother or other huge beasts walk back and forth a few times, and they can forcibly press out a road.
A chicken cart is a one-wheeled cart, which was frequently used on construction sites, especially in ancient times.
Luo Zhan specifically checked the information on the computer and found it.
The bearer took the animal skin and looked at it for a long time. He probably didn't have the concept of tires, so he saw the picture, but he probably didn't understand it.
Luo Zhan said, "This thing is simple, and you can understand how to use it as soon as you make it."
As for why not consider using ferocious beasts for transportation?
This problem is very simple, because ferocious beasts are always used for fighting. Without special transportation and domestication, it is impossible to suddenly obediently help to transport things. For example, the docile character of the snake mother, if you hang a lot of things Yes, it can roll on the ground for a long time.
For example, cattle and horses are not consigned from the beginning, but are the result of domestication from generation to generation.
Of course, there is another reason. Wilderness is dangerous, and you may encounter danger at any time. What if you let the ferocious beast engage in transportation and face the sudden danger?Let them fight with heavy objects?
The gain outweighs the loss, and protecting the safety of the tribe is the first priority.
For the production of the rooster cart, people from the Xietong tribe must be called in, because there are too many people needed, Luo Yan can demonstrate to make one, and the rest depends on the Xietong tribe in charge.
Under the current conditions, the tires of the chicken bus are wooden tires with high friction, but the tribal people are strong, and this frictional resistance is not enough to offset the benefits of chicken bus transportation.
Negative Xie nodded, and called someone to start preparations.
The felled trees were quickly brought over.
Luo Zhan took out the coke and began to draw on the tree trunk according to the record on the animal hide.
The floor plan of the decomposed chicken bus is all on the hide.
The eyes of the Xietong tribe became sacred when they looked at the animal skin. It really is a great ancestor's writing. Their tribe wants to grind stone guns and squeeze mud irrigation. They are all passed down from generation to generation. It is difficult to use words like what we see now. record it.
Luo Zhan said, "The one in my hand is called a ruler. Remember the dots I drew on the wood. You will also draw according to this ratio in the future."
The ruler was specially prepared by Luo Zhan, and it was actually a flat piece of wood cut with a bone knife, with scales marked on it.
In fact, there are many small problems in building a city, and it also involves too much knowledge. The scale alone must be unified.
Luo Zhan promised to teach Mathematics to the Xietong tribe, and this ruler is an important part of mathematics.
It seems that in order for the Xietong tribe to help make more cockroaches, they have to make up math lessons.
Now let's get the first rooster out for now.
After Luo Zhan drew the line on the tree trunk, he looked at Xiang Zhi, "Come on, cut it along the line I drew."
Negative: "..."
To be honest, at the beginning, the people of the Xietong tribe could remember what to draw, but later they couldn't remember at all. They couldn't understand the plan on the animal skin, so it was really difficult to learn.
From day to night, pieces of wood are cut into the desired shape.
Then there is assembly.
Luo used the most classic buckle and hinge method in ancient times to assemble the shape of the wheel and car body.
But in fact, they are relatively loose, and they will fall apart once they are exerted force.
Luo Zhi also has a solution to this problem.
Not long ago, he was surrounded by quite a few children of the ancient Tongque tribe. The fierce beasts they raised were uniped bronze birds, because they were all small bronze birds, the size of a big rooster, and they chirped and jumped on the ground very gratifyingly.
This bronze bird looks very strange, it doesn't look like a flesh and blood creature at all, it looks like a metal bird, the strangeness in the world is really amazing.
Luo Zhan also took a special look at the feathers of these bronze birds, one by one, like steel needles.
At that time, Luo Zhan happily picked up the feathers of some small bronze birds. At first, he planned to use them as pens, but he found that they were too hard, and he couldn't absorb ink even after making them into pens.
It's really very hard, the kind that you can't stop breaking.
Now it can be used as a steel nail, which is also a surprise.
As for how to get more feathers from the Bronze Bird, it depends on how Negotiating with the ancient Tongque tribe. Luo Zhan thinks it should not be difficult, because when he picked up those feathers, the people of the ancient Tongque tribe did not take it seriously at all. It's the same thing.
Now Luo Zhan is using stones to drive these "nails" into the connected wood one by one to play a fixed role.
It was already midnight when a chicken bus was ready.
A group of people: "..."
Luo Zhan pushed it, it was pretty good, it was very firm, "Put the volcanic ash into the upper car body, that is, this box made of wooden boards, and then push it back."
The rooster car looks very simple and does not need too much explanation. You will know how to use it as soon as you get started, and you don’t need to consider the details in making it. The most important thing is practicality.
Negative Chi also pushed, which is indeed very interesting.
In this way, the transportation problem of the sand-like volcanic ash, which is very difficult to transport, is also solved.
Salmon has had a great time pushing the chicken cart.
Now it is left to Luo Zhan to teach the people of the Xietong tribe to use a ruler to measure step by step, and then cut out the components of the rooster cart, assemble them, and nail a usable rooster cart.
Luo Zhan thought about it, maybe it is a bit complicated for a person to learn how to make a car completely, although in his opinion, the chicken car is already a very simple thing.
So Luo Zhan decided to divide the whole production process into several parts, and each person can learn one part, which can reduce the number of things that everyone needs to learn, and finally can piece together the finished product.
This method is really easy to use, even you only need to memorize it by rote, and you don’t need to learn the specific meaning of the ruler, and you can make the correct and suitable components.
After another three days, the Xietong tribe made a rooster car that looked okay.
So the overtime chicken bus production began.
Luo Zhan and Salmon have already taken the snake mother to press the road.
On the snake mother's head, the two hugged the snake mother's antlers, and the salmon said, "I wanted to play with the chicken bus for a while."
Luo Zhan was a little amused, but that wasn't for fun.
Lie Xi followed beside him, and Luo Zhan's group of "students" were behind him.
If you want to squeeze out a road that can barely provide transportation as soon as possible, of course, the more people the better.
Followed by these strange beasts of the students.
The stone tortoises of the Minglun ancient tribe played a big role. They are so huge that they are so heavy that they are no different from stones. To be honest, these tortoises also look similar to stones. If you don’t pay attention, you can’t tell them apart. The chassis is low and the size is large. Big, it is simply the best choice for pressing the road, and Luo Yan has to lament the strangeness of the species again.
Those "students" are still downcast.
"Why doesn't anyone trust us?"
"No, the more I talk, the more I get beaten."
"Why?"
"And what are we doing now? We've all walked back and forth several times."
"The good news and funeral announcements of the Xietong Ancient Clan are strange. I seem to have seen them secretly plucking the feathers of the little bronze bird of the Ancient Bronze Sparrow Clan."
Luo Zhan felt that his temporary "teacher" was too incompetent, and he didn't start teaching the characters he promised to teach after so long.
But he was indeed prepared, and took out a piece of animal skin from the salmon holding it next to him. On the animal skin was an elementary school article "Prairie".
Let these "students" memorize the text first, and then teach each word from this text one by one.
As for why "Prairie" was chosen, the reason is very simple, because the characters in it can reflect the scene we are seeing now, and the immersive learning should be more impressive.
In the grassland, a strange voice sounded.
"Under the blue sky, a piece of golden yellow, here is a vast prairie..."
The voices of 150 people are not small, and the neat reading is something they have never experienced before.
Luo Zhan was taken aback when he heard it, he felt like he was reading aloud in the morning on the computer.
Not bad.
Luo Zhan also didn't know if there was any problem with teaching like this, who made him not a teacher by profession.
No matter, listen to this recitation, how pleasant it is.
Blowing the grassland wind, listening to the sound of reading that does not belong to this era, tsk tsk, Luo Zhan felt that he was going to lead the whole Northern Wilderness astray, haha.
Of course, the most important thing now is to press the road.
And those students were so excited that they couldn't stop.
They officially began to learn the characters of their ancestors, especially when Luo Zhan accidentally dropped the animal skin covered with the text of "Prairie" on his hand, and a child helped him pick it up. Looking at the words on it, he became demented.
Is he learning the words on it?
The abnormal expression caused other "students" to watch.
This time the pot exploded.
Are they learning the words on it?
The animal skin probably radiated holy light in their eyes.
It was the salmon that slipped off the snake mother's forehead and retrieved the hide that ended the chaos.
While doing construction, while listening to the sound of reading, sometimes Luo Zhan felt that his current life was good, especially when he passed by the camp of the Xietong Ancient Clan, he could still hear "Master Wise".
Even the salmon walk with their little heads up now, their little patriarch is amazing.
During the period before the volcanic ash was brought back, Luo Zhan dragged his load around every day on the land he was allocated.
Hold the rope in your hand, use it as a tape measure, and melt out area after area on the ground.
"Here we build the castle..."
"This is the street..."
"The square is being built here..."
Negative: "..."
Did not understand.
But he still followed it day by day, because what Luo Zhan planned was not his ideal.
As the volcanic ash was transported back one after another, the area belonging to Luo Zhan began to be cleared of people, that is, foreigners were no longer allowed to enter, because too many people gathered on the construction site, and no matter what happened, it would definitely hinder and delay the project. .
The eleven clans must unite to guard the relics of their ancestors. Mutual respect is affirmative. In addition to the lessons learned from the last time the psychic clans nearly fought each other because of peeping, the Li clan's decision is still followed by all clans, because they don't want to have to block themselves In the area, there are still people who come out to toss.
But they discovered a strange thing, the Xietong Ancient Clan stopped building their area, and instead flocked to the Li Clan's area to help build it.
For a while, many people were surprised.
But they have also seen the volcanic ash that the ancient Xietong tribe transported back to the Li nationality area, isn't it just some sand, does this have anything to do with the construction of the city?
can't read.
Don't say they don't understand, people from the Xietong Ancient Clan can't understand it themselves.
On the other hand, Luo Zhan had already unfolded the animal skins and arranged them in an orderly manner according to the formula above.
Luckily for Luo, he is a user of the results, not a researcher.
Otherwise, he didn't know how long it would take to study just one of the oldest cement formulas to succeed.
Even so, Luo Zhan moved step by step according to the information he inquired, and it took a few days to get the hardest brick.
It is wrong to say bricks, because it is more like a huge stone slab.
Luo Zhan said that what he needs to build is a place where fierce beasts can also set foot, and small bricks simply cannot bear such a weight.
So each brick must be strong and firm, and must be large.
It is estimated that after countless years, if someone comes to archaeology, they will mistakenly think that Luo Zhan built a city dedicated to the survival of giants.
This is a "huge" city.
The mold used to pour the bricks is made of wood, a simple boxy frame.
Just make sure that the size of each mold is exactly the same.
Seeing this hard "rock", Xiang Xi was also a little dazed.
It was obviously sand, but after mixing it with a fixed amount of water, it turned into "stones" after it dried.
Negative Chi stretched out his hand and squeezed it, it was extremely strong, no less than a complete stone.
It would be much more troublesome to make the real stone into such a square and regular shape.
Negative Xie's eyes could not help but brighten, even if these "stones" were used to build their original stone house, it would be good.
The force on the negative hand was getting stronger and stronger, the brick did not change significantly, and then he stretched out his hand and punched it hard, and only then did cracks appear on it.
The unexpected expression on the negative face became more and more obvious. The strength of his punch was beyond the reach of ordinary people, and it was only cracks.
Luo Zhan is also trying, and his method is more direct, just let the snake mother move on it.
The weight of the snake mother is very amazing, but because of the contact area, the bricks are very large and heavy, and there is no trace at all.
"It's done." Luo Zhan's expression brightened.
But there is a problem...
Such a square cement block is hard enough, but it is rough and ugly.
Buildings built with such bricks certainly have their unique beauty, but Luo Zhan always felt that something was missing.
This can be regarded as Luo Zhan's last persistence and stubbornness towards beauty.
After thinking about it, his eyes lit up.
On the edge of the sky-reaching river, there are a lot of fist-sized pebbles of different colors.
Stay away from the river bank, and there should be no danger in picking up some.
As for Luo Zhan's talk of picking up pebbles, Xie Xi didn't have any objections. Although he didn't know what it was useful for, Luo Zhan turned the sand into solid "rocks", so he had nothing to say.
It didn't take long for the pebbles to be brought back.
Luo Zhan began to add the mixed volcanic ash into the mold again.
Luo Zhi held a wooden board with a handle, and bit by bit the mixed volcanic ash was rolled into the mold to make it flat and compact.
Only in this way can we ensure that the "slate" produced is strong and not hollow.
He had done the same before.
But this time was different. After filling the mold to its fullest, Luo Li began to put the pebbles in one by one.
Let the pebbles be embedded in the cement that has not yet solidified, leaving only one side exposed.
Try to keep the pebbles as flat as possible. To be honest, each pebble is manually placed, which takes more time than pure cement bricks.
But he has no shortage of people, isn't he, he has the support of a whole Xietong ancient clan, didn't he say that he has sent a message back for more Xietong clan to come.
The pebbles that were put in squeezed out the cement, and Luo Zhan also removed it bit by bit.
Some people say that pebbles are the most natural gemstones in nature, which is actually true.
The clean pebbles are put together, no matter how you look at it, it is beautiful.
After solidification, a unique huge "stone slab" appeared in front of Luo Zhan.
The solidity of cement and the beauty of pebbles blend together.
Luo Zhan touched the side of the flat cobblestone, his whole eyes were shining brightly.
Is marble beautiful?Nature is beautiful, because it is pure natural jade, no matter the texture or what, it is the best.
But the cobblestone side of the stone slab that Luo Zhan got out is also like pieces of jade gemstones inlaid.
It is impossible to be completely flat like a mirror surface, but we have tried our best to avoid too strong a sense of bulge.
Whether it is visual or hand feeling, it is a good "stone", which is completely different from the rough cement block just now. Although its essence is still a cement block, it is only embedded with pebbles the size of a fist before the cement has solidified. Changed the visual effect.
Negative Xi was also a little confused, and it wasn't complicated to say it, because he watched the whole process.
He couldn't even imagine what a house built with such "stone materials" would look like.
At the last moment, they were still living in the cave.
Luo Zhan swallowed his saliva, this should be the final product he needs.
In the future, pebbles of different colors will be selected for mosaic at most, such as pure white, pure yellow...
Pebbles naturally have the real feeling of jade, whether it is raining or scorching sun, it will not affect its appearance at all.
As for whether it can withstand wind and rain, it is completely unnecessary to consider, and it is not necessary to check how they are formed.
Luo Li began to teach the people of the Xietong tribe to start pouring the "stone slab". Although they watched the whole process, they still had to teach the details one by one, and there should be no mistakes.
Construction is serious and rigorous, and he had to instill this concept in the Xietong tribe.
In fact, there is a problem here. The people of the Xietong tribe have never used the experience of building, and they don't even have the concept.
Don't underestimate this, it is very prone to various unpredictable problems.
Therefore, the first project that Luo Zhi decided to build was the city square.
The difficulty of the square should be the lowest, so you should get used to it first.
To build a city square, the land has to be dug, because the surface of the land is actually soft, so if you put bricks on it, the bottom will be hollow.
There is another reason for digging the ground, to level the ground completely.
Of course, this is all physical work, and the supervisor is extremely meticulous. Otherwise, if there is a slight unevenness, it will look like a rough project, not even a tofu project.
As for the levelness of the ground, it is also easy to measure, just pull a rope straight and measure it.
The city square planned by Luo Ji is at the very center of his land.
Wide city squares are a must.
There has to be a landmark, there has to be a fountain...
He is also a man of pursuit.
In other words, everyone has a pursuit of beauty.
As for the iconic buildings, Luo Zhan had a smug smile on his lips, he had already thought about it.
Naturally, the fountain needs to be planned well, and a steam pump can handle it. Of course, fountains are not available all the time. When you need to use that steam pump to pump water, drive the fountain by the way. Otherwise, arrange a person to burn the steam engine every day for the fountain in the square. It's not realistic either.
Of course, when the city is built, the water supply required by a city is very large. The steam pump may really have to run 24 hours a day, so it is not impossible to keep the fountain running.
Because Luo Zhan blocked his area, the other ancient people could only watch from a distance, and they were not sure what they were doing.
But what is certain is that the Xietong clan has really completely put aside the things in their hands and is doing things for the Li clan.
However, those children who followed Luo Li to learn writing could come in, so every time these children returned to their tribal camp, the first thing they did was to fall on the ground and roll around, screaming that no one could understand.
These adults have no idea what they saw.
Although they don't know exactly what they built, but it's so beautiful that it makes people feel stunned at first glance, and they can't move their eyes at all.
That must be the greatest and greatest thing in this world.
Even if they don't study characters now, they are willing to watch them there all day long.
Even the cool boys of the bloody ancient clan rolled on the ground after they went back. If they didn't scream, they would keep rolling.
The technical content of the construction of the city square is indeed much lower. Pour wet cement on the flat ground, level it, and then spread the "stone" on it, and gently tap on the "stone" to ensure that the "stone" and cement Complete bonding, this process requires constant adjustment of the flatness of the "stone", so that each stone inlaid is at the same height as the rope used to measure the balance.
The gap between the two stone slabs is also filled with cement. Although this problem seems small, whether the quality is good or not is often reflected in these small aspects.
For a month, for a whole month, Luo Zhan stayed in the square with almost all the people from the ancient Xietong clan.
It stands to reason that there are a lot of people from the Xietong Ancient Clan, no matter how big the city square is, it would not take so many people a month.
But because it was the first time construction, once there was a slight mistake, Luo Zhan would rather dig it out and do it again.
Are the Xietong people bored?
No, on the contrary, their arrogance is getting higher and higher day by day. It can be said that they are more excited than Luo Zhan's mental state, and they are more cautious and serious.
Because they can see with their own eyes what they have made.
Is a stone studded with pebbles beautiful?
It's beautiful, but it's just beautiful, and it can't be as shocking as the scene covering the entire ground.
In their hands, what was born was the masterpiece of the gods.
During this month, Luo Zhan also looked at his seedlings from time to time. Now they can no longer be described as seedlings, they are as high as knees.
But basically they all went back the same day and came back the same day. The weeding of the paddy fields was taught to the people of the ancient Xietong tribe who guarded the steam pumps there.
He is now a wise man of the Xietong Ancient Clan. For this small request, others are still willing to help.
Luo Zhan wished he could separate himself, taking care of his seedlings and building his city square at the same time.
In a month's time, the city square is about to be completed.
In the very center of the square, there is a strange building surrounded by a surrounding pool, of course there is no water in the pool.
The square is also dusty, and no matter how careful it is, there are still some cement spots left on it.
Because, first, Luo Zhan officially became the wise man of the Xietong tribe, such a major event requires a ceremony.
Second, there is no water source in the ruins, and the volcanic ash cannot be used to collect the needed bricks.
Therefore, Luo Zhan began to formally teach the Xietong tribe to fire pottery pipes. A large number of pipes was not enough for Luo Zhan to burn casually in the past.
What's more, the ruins are very far away from the sky-reaching river. A steam engine pump can't pump water here at all, so one has to be used at intervals.
Third, you need a hoe to dig the foundation. It is impossible to plan by hand.
Sharpening knives does not miss woodcutters.
By the time the Xietong tribe started to fight against the pipes, steam pumps, and hoes to go to the ruins, it was already half a month later.
In the past half month, Luo Zhan has not been idle. In addition to making more steam pumps, he asked the manager for some wild animal skins, boiled them and dried them in the sun to turn them into dry leather materials that can be written on.
Luo Zhan hid in the cave again.
When he came out, each piece of animal skin was full of words, all of which were recorded by him after consulting the computer, such as how the volcanic ash was poured into bricks, and what proportion could make the poured bricks harder and more durable. wind and rain.
Also, the four pictures he originally drew were just renderings. He had to plan the size of each wall, each pillar, and even each brick on the ground.
Therefore, when Luo Zhan came out, the animal skin full of records was hugged in his arms, almost blocking his head.
"Let's go." The manager looked at the ready crowd and said.
When everyone heard this sentence, they couldn't help being inexplicably excited.
For the past half month, they have been looking at the four pictures on the mountain wall every day, imagining how majestic and beautiful their city will be after they are built.
They found that they looked at the "rendering picture" tomorrow, but they still couldn't imagine what such a city would look like.
Because I've never seen it before, I know it's something spectacular, but I still can't draw a specific picture in my mind.
And the children of various ethnic groups who came here, looked at the pottery pipes that the Xietong tribe was resisting for a while, and looked at the animal skin pictures hanging on the mountain wall for a while.
"Ah, what are you doing?"
"You guys are talking about it."
They were more excited than the people of the Xietong tribe, because they always felt that the people of the Xietong tribe were doing something earth-shattering.
It's a pity that no one has time to pay attention to them, and they are so anxious that they jump.
These days, they also spread the news back to their own tribe, for example, Luo Zhan became a wise man of the Xietong tribe, but no one believed it, because no matter how powerful Luo Zhan was, he was still a foreigner to the Xieyong tribe.
This is completely unprecedented and impossible and unbelievable.
So the negative decision actually caused quite a stir in the Xietong tribe, but every time they saw those four pictures, no one could offer any rebuttal opinions.
That was what they were all waiting for in their souls, how could they refute it?
There are also four pictures, and the children of all ethnic groups will naturally tell their tribes, but they can't describe what they see in words, and the content sent back becomes so strange that no one pays attention to it.
Unexpected, yet seemingly expected situation.
Luo Zhan didn't care much about these children sending news to their own tribes, because the things he wanted to build couldn't be hidden, and the camps of all tribes were in the ruins, how could they not be seen?
So the situation became a little strange. Everyone on Luo Zhan's side was so excited that they couldn't help themselves, but there was no reaction on the other side of the ruins.
Luo Zhan found that the team was much larger than before, so he couldn't help but look at the leader.
Ling Xi said, "Not long ago, when the water source was sufficient, I sent people back to send a message to let more tribesmen come to this area. It happened that they just arrived."
Now that the city is going to be built, in fact, the bearer has asked people to go back to bring letters, so that more Xietong people can come.
The large tribe has a larger population than Luo Zhan imagined.
On the way, a group of children was very strange, because for no reason, the two of them were walking, and suddenly they kicked their calves, hugged each other and screamed excitedly.
The people around are still taking it for granted.
If it weren't for their embarrassment, they would be more excited than these children.
Luo Zhan: "..."
Do you know how scary it is when two people suddenly hug each other and shake their heads?
The first time he almost fell off the snake mother's head in fright.
Later, he got used to it, because the frequency was too frequent. When he stepped down from the snake mother to rest, he could suddenly hold a "wise man wise man" on his lap and scream loudly when announcing the good news and the funeral.
Luo Zhan: "..."
As soon as they came to the ruins, Luo Zhan and Xiang Xi led people to bury the pipes.
This place is different from the volcano in Luo Ran. There are few people in the volcano, and it doesn’t matter if the pipes are exposed to the ground. There are many people here, so they have to be buried underground to be safe.
Moreover, his urban construction itself had to include a water supply system, so water pipes couldn't be scattered all over the city.
For the first time, the children of various ethnic groups who had been following Luo Zhan left, and they almost ran back to their own clan's camp at the fastest speed.
Excited.
As a result, those tribesmen are still happily building stone houses.
They were so anxious that they rolled on the ground, thinking that their side was a mess of stone houses, and next door was the miraculous city in the picture, they couldn't stop in a hurry.
Some were stubborn, rolling on the ground while knocking down the stone houses one by one, because it was useless to repair them.
In the end, it is conceivable that the buttocks are all opened up.
"What did you tell us last time that Luo Ran from the Li tribe became the wise man of the Xietong tribe?"
"You really dare to say, do you know what a wise man is?"
How did these kids go crazy after going out for a trip?
When these children get together again, the hammerheads will follow the defeated rooster in frustration.
"Why?"
Why no one believes them.
Different views, different positions, different ideas.
The height of thought determines the height of a person.
Although Luo Zhan didn't teach them anything these days, he showed them a wider world. What's more important than this?
At this time, Luo Zhan and Ling Xi were leading the people of the Xietong tribe to dig and bury the channel for the water pipe.
Luo Ran looked a little pale at the Xietong tribe who was approaching the sky-reaching river.
A tentacled monster like a mountain was emerging from the river, lasers were shooting, the monster was neighing, and the people of the Xietong tribe wanted to get closer to the river in this fierce battle.
No one flinched.
The battle was very fierce.
This also made Luo Zhan truly realize that this world is a world of giant beasts, and even a huge tribe like the Xietong Ancient Clan is just struggling to survive in the gaps of giant beasts.
Human beings have had a hard time.
Negative Xie also frowned, because too fierce fighting would only attract more ferocious giant beasts.
In the end, it was only possible to barely put a section of pipe into the river.
It is impossible to get a trench-buried pipeline, and the situation is worse than what Luo Zhan expected.
Luo Zhan also knew why the major ancient tribes were so short of water in the past, and humans did not have the slightest advantage in the struggle against this sky-reaching river.
Fortunately, the behemoth has no interest in these inanimate pipes.
It can only expose the pipeline in this section of the river.
When Luo Zhan and the others started to leave, a big fish in the water, covered in spells like stars, was biting the tentacle giant beast that was still showing off its might just now, making it impossible for the other party to break free. The fish was still staring at the leaving Xietong tribe with its huge eyes. If it wasn't for the giant tentacled beast, it would have chased after it.
The people of the Xietong tribe seem to be used to such scenes, but Luo Zhan's hairs are standing on end. The existence that was at the top of the food chain just now has directly become the food in the mouths of other creatures.
There are too many unknowns in the wild, which is more terrifying than he imagined, or a little more awe, it is also true.
The rest of the road is much easier.
Luo Zhan also saw the benefits of more people and more strength. Each part of the people was responsible for a certain distance, and then excavated.
The hole dug does not need to be too deep, because the pipeline is not too big, otherwise, even with the help of the entire Xietong Ancient Clan, such a long distance would be too time-consuming and troublesome.
Pottery pipes are also fired from the volcano and sent over.
A week later, with the buzzing of the steam engine, the ruins finally had water.
Luo Zhan and Salmon were washing there with basins, and the beautiful water splashed everywhere.
In hot weather, washing your face and feet will cool you down.
This water source is not provided to other tribes, because the Xietong ancient tribe made it themselves, and other ancient tribes still have to go to the volcano to get water.
Moreover, they will need a lot of water right away, and it is true that they don't have much to supply to others.
The appearance of the water source has attracted the attention of other ethnic groups. If there is no water source from the volcano to supply them, there may be another dispute.
With water, all that's left is volcanic ash.
The bearer took Luo Li to the nearest volcano. There is a lot of volcanic ash, and the quantity is not a problem at all. This continuous volcano is the best output.
The difficulty is how to transport them to the ruins.
Negotiator frowned, "Is it necessary to use this sand?"
"If it's stones, it's easier to transport, even if the clansmen can move them one by one, but this sand..."
And how to build the city in the sand, this is also something that Liao doesn't understand.
Luo Zhan knew what it meant to carry the sand, but the sand was not easy to transport.
But it's useless to move the stone back. The stone is irregular. Who will beat it into the required square shape?
Maybe he can cut the stone into the desired shape with a spell, but can he still cut the stone for building a city?
When manpower runs out.
Seeing that Luo Xi was frowning, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up. He really thought that he stayed in the cave to check the information these days for nothing.
He must have thought about such a big problem of transportation.
He beckoned to the salmon who was holding a large pile of animal skins next to him.
Salmon ran over happily, because he had seen all the animal skins in his arms, and they were all written on them. Although he couldn't understand them, he felt that they were all great things of their Li tribe, and the little patriarch taught him something. , he has to keep it.
Seeing that everyone is trying to snatch him, Salmon is extremely vigilant.
Luo Zhan took out a piece of animal skin from the middle, "Transportation is not a problem."
There are a lot of text annotations on the animal skin, and I can't understand it, but they should all describe a strange pattern drawn on the animal skin.
Luo Zhan said, "This thing is called a chicken bus. We just need to make it, put volcanic ash on the chicken bus, and let the people push it back along the way. The chicken bus can save a lot of energy."
They are here on a plain, Luo Zhan also noticed it when they came here, the road is actually very flat, just fill in the potholes a little bit.
As for the weeds on the road that affect the cart, it is not a big problem to let the snake mother or other huge beasts walk back and forth a few times, and they can forcibly press out a road.
A chicken cart is a one-wheeled cart, which was frequently used on construction sites, especially in ancient times.
Luo Zhan specifically checked the information on the computer and found it.
The bearer took the animal skin and looked at it for a long time. He probably didn't have the concept of tires, so he saw the picture, but he probably didn't understand it.
Luo Zhan said, "This thing is simple, and you can understand how to use it as soon as you make it."
As for why not consider using ferocious beasts for transportation?
This problem is very simple, because ferocious beasts are always used for fighting. Without special transportation and domestication, it is impossible to suddenly obediently help to transport things. For example, the docile character of the snake mother, if you hang a lot of things Yes, it can roll on the ground for a long time.
For example, cattle and horses are not consigned from the beginning, but are the result of domestication from generation to generation.
Of course, there is another reason. Wilderness is dangerous, and you may encounter danger at any time. What if you let the ferocious beast engage in transportation and face the sudden danger?Let them fight with heavy objects?
The gain outweighs the loss, and protecting the safety of the tribe is the first priority.
For the production of the rooster cart, people from the Xietong tribe must be called in, because there are too many people needed, Luo Yan can demonstrate to make one, and the rest depends on the Xietong tribe in charge.
Under the current conditions, the tires of the chicken bus are wooden tires with high friction, but the tribal people are strong, and this frictional resistance is not enough to offset the benefits of chicken bus transportation.
Negative Xie nodded, and called someone to start preparations.
The felled trees were quickly brought over.
Luo Zhan took out the coke and began to draw on the tree trunk according to the record on the animal hide.
The floor plan of the decomposed chicken bus is all on the hide.
The eyes of the Xietong tribe became sacred when they looked at the animal skin. It really is a great ancestor's writing. Their tribe wants to grind stone guns and squeeze mud irrigation. They are all passed down from generation to generation. It is difficult to use words like what we see now. record it.
Luo Zhan said, "The one in my hand is called a ruler. Remember the dots I drew on the wood. You will also draw according to this ratio in the future."
The ruler was specially prepared by Luo Zhan, and it was actually a flat piece of wood cut with a bone knife, with scales marked on it.
In fact, there are many small problems in building a city, and it also involves too much knowledge. The scale alone must be unified.
Luo Zhan promised to teach Mathematics to the Xietong tribe, and this ruler is an important part of mathematics.
It seems that in order for the Xietong tribe to help make more cockroaches, they have to make up math lessons.
Now let's get the first rooster out for now.
After Luo Zhan drew the line on the tree trunk, he looked at Xiang Zhi, "Come on, cut it along the line I drew."
Negative: "..."
To be honest, at the beginning, the people of the Xietong tribe could remember what to draw, but later they couldn't remember at all. They couldn't understand the plan on the animal skin, so it was really difficult to learn.
From day to night, pieces of wood are cut into the desired shape.
Then there is assembly.
Luo used the most classic buckle and hinge method in ancient times to assemble the shape of the wheel and car body.
But in fact, they are relatively loose, and they will fall apart once they are exerted force.
Luo Zhi also has a solution to this problem.
Not long ago, he was surrounded by quite a few children of the ancient Tongque tribe. The fierce beasts they raised were uniped bronze birds, because they were all small bronze birds, the size of a big rooster, and they chirped and jumped on the ground very gratifyingly.
This bronze bird looks very strange, it doesn't look like a flesh and blood creature at all, it looks like a metal bird, the strangeness in the world is really amazing.
Luo Zhan also took a special look at the feathers of these bronze birds, one by one, like steel needles.
At that time, Luo Zhan happily picked up the feathers of some small bronze birds. At first, he planned to use them as pens, but he found that they were too hard, and he couldn't absorb ink even after making them into pens.
It's really very hard, the kind that you can't stop breaking.
Now it can be used as a steel nail, which is also a surprise.
As for how to get more feathers from the Bronze Bird, it depends on how Negotiating with the ancient Tongque tribe. Luo Zhan thinks it should not be difficult, because when he picked up those feathers, the people of the ancient Tongque tribe did not take it seriously at all. It's the same thing.
Now Luo Zhan is using stones to drive these "nails" into the connected wood one by one to play a fixed role.
It was already midnight when a chicken bus was ready.
A group of people: "..."
Luo Zhan pushed it, it was pretty good, it was very firm, "Put the volcanic ash into the upper car body, that is, this box made of wooden boards, and then push it back."
The rooster car looks very simple and does not need too much explanation. You will know how to use it as soon as you get started, and you don’t need to consider the details in making it. The most important thing is practicality.
Negative Chi also pushed, which is indeed very interesting.
In this way, the transportation problem of the sand-like volcanic ash, which is very difficult to transport, is also solved.
Salmon has had a great time pushing the chicken cart.
Now it is left to Luo Zhan to teach the people of the Xietong tribe to use a ruler to measure step by step, and then cut out the components of the rooster cart, assemble them, and nail a usable rooster cart.
Luo Zhan thought about it, maybe it is a bit complicated for a person to learn how to make a car completely, although in his opinion, the chicken car is already a very simple thing.
So Luo Zhan decided to divide the whole production process into several parts, and each person can learn one part, which can reduce the number of things that everyone needs to learn, and finally can piece together the finished product.
This method is really easy to use, even you only need to memorize it by rote, and you don’t need to learn the specific meaning of the ruler, and you can make the correct and suitable components.
After another three days, the Xietong tribe made a rooster car that looked okay.
So the overtime chicken bus production began.
Luo Zhan and Salmon have already taken the snake mother to press the road.
On the snake mother's head, the two hugged the snake mother's antlers, and the salmon said, "I wanted to play with the chicken bus for a while."
Luo Zhan was a little amused, but that wasn't for fun.
Lie Xi followed beside him, and Luo Zhan's group of "students" were behind him.
If you want to squeeze out a road that can barely provide transportation as soon as possible, of course, the more people the better.
Followed by these strange beasts of the students.
The stone tortoises of the Minglun ancient tribe played a big role. They are so huge that they are so heavy that they are no different from stones. To be honest, these tortoises also look similar to stones. If you don’t pay attention, you can’t tell them apart. The chassis is low and the size is large. Big, it is simply the best choice for pressing the road, and Luo Yan has to lament the strangeness of the species again.
Those "students" are still downcast.
"Why doesn't anyone trust us?"
"No, the more I talk, the more I get beaten."
"Why?"
"And what are we doing now? We've all walked back and forth several times."
"The good news and funeral announcements of the Xietong Ancient Clan are strange. I seem to have seen them secretly plucking the feathers of the little bronze bird of the Ancient Bronze Sparrow Clan."
Luo Zhan felt that his temporary "teacher" was too incompetent, and he didn't start teaching the characters he promised to teach after so long.
But he was indeed prepared, and took out a piece of animal skin from the salmon holding it next to him. On the animal skin was an elementary school article "Prairie".
Let these "students" memorize the text first, and then teach each word from this text one by one.
As for why "Prairie" was chosen, the reason is very simple, because the characters in it can reflect the scene we are seeing now, and the immersive learning should be more impressive.
In the grassland, a strange voice sounded.
"Under the blue sky, a piece of golden yellow, here is a vast prairie..."
The voices of 150 people are not small, and the neat reading is something they have never experienced before.
Luo Zhan was taken aback when he heard it, he felt like he was reading aloud in the morning on the computer.
Not bad.
Luo Zhan also didn't know if there was any problem with teaching like this, who made him not a teacher by profession.
No matter, listen to this recitation, how pleasant it is.
Blowing the grassland wind, listening to the sound of reading that does not belong to this era, tsk tsk, Luo Zhan felt that he was going to lead the whole Northern Wilderness astray, haha.
Of course, the most important thing now is to press the road.
And those students were so excited that they couldn't stop.
They officially began to learn the characters of their ancestors, especially when Luo Zhan accidentally dropped the animal skin covered with the text of "Prairie" on his hand, and a child helped him pick it up. Looking at the words on it, he became demented.
Is he learning the words on it?
The abnormal expression caused other "students" to watch.
This time the pot exploded.
Are they learning the words on it?
The animal skin probably radiated holy light in their eyes.
It was the salmon that slipped off the snake mother's forehead and retrieved the hide that ended the chaos.
While doing construction, while listening to the sound of reading, sometimes Luo Zhan felt that his current life was good, especially when he passed by the camp of the Xietong Ancient Clan, he could still hear "Master Wise".
Even the salmon walk with their little heads up now, their little patriarch is amazing.
During the period before the volcanic ash was brought back, Luo Zhan dragged his load around every day on the land he was allocated.
Hold the rope in your hand, use it as a tape measure, and melt out area after area on the ground.
"Here we build the castle..."
"This is the street..."
"The square is being built here..."
Negative: "..."
Did not understand.
But he still followed it day by day, because what Luo Zhan planned was not his ideal.
As the volcanic ash was transported back one after another, the area belonging to Luo Zhan began to be cleared of people, that is, foreigners were no longer allowed to enter, because too many people gathered on the construction site, and no matter what happened, it would definitely hinder and delay the project. .
The eleven clans must unite to guard the relics of their ancestors. Mutual respect is affirmative. In addition to the lessons learned from the last time the psychic clans nearly fought each other because of peeping, the Li clan's decision is still followed by all clans, because they don't want to have to block themselves In the area, there are still people who come out to toss.
But they discovered a strange thing, the Xietong Ancient Clan stopped building their area, and instead flocked to the Li Clan's area to help build it.
For a while, many people were surprised.
But they have also seen the volcanic ash that the ancient Xietong tribe transported back to the Li nationality area, isn't it just some sand, does this have anything to do with the construction of the city?
can't read.
Don't say they don't understand, people from the Xietong Ancient Clan can't understand it themselves.
On the other hand, Luo Zhan had already unfolded the animal skins and arranged them in an orderly manner according to the formula above.
Luckily for Luo, he is a user of the results, not a researcher.
Otherwise, he didn't know how long it would take to study just one of the oldest cement formulas to succeed.
Even so, Luo Zhan moved step by step according to the information he inquired, and it took a few days to get the hardest brick.
It is wrong to say bricks, because it is more like a huge stone slab.
Luo Zhan said that what he needs to build is a place where fierce beasts can also set foot, and small bricks simply cannot bear such a weight.
So each brick must be strong and firm, and must be large.
It is estimated that after countless years, if someone comes to archaeology, they will mistakenly think that Luo Zhan built a city dedicated to the survival of giants.
This is a "huge" city.
The mold used to pour the bricks is made of wood, a simple boxy frame.
Just make sure that the size of each mold is exactly the same.
Seeing this hard "rock", Xiang Xi was also a little dazed.
It was obviously sand, but after mixing it with a fixed amount of water, it turned into "stones" after it dried.
Negative Chi stretched out his hand and squeezed it, it was extremely strong, no less than a complete stone.
It would be much more troublesome to make the real stone into such a square and regular shape.
Negative Xie's eyes could not help but brighten, even if these "stones" were used to build their original stone house, it would be good.
The force on the negative hand was getting stronger and stronger, the brick did not change significantly, and then he stretched out his hand and punched it hard, and only then did cracks appear on it.
The unexpected expression on the negative face became more and more obvious. The strength of his punch was beyond the reach of ordinary people, and it was only cracks.
Luo Zhan is also trying, and his method is more direct, just let the snake mother move on it.
The weight of the snake mother is very amazing, but because of the contact area, the bricks are very large and heavy, and there is no trace at all.
"It's done." Luo Zhan's expression brightened.
But there is a problem...
Such a square cement block is hard enough, but it is rough and ugly.
Buildings built with such bricks certainly have their unique beauty, but Luo Zhan always felt that something was missing.
This can be regarded as Luo Zhan's last persistence and stubbornness towards beauty.
After thinking about it, his eyes lit up.
On the edge of the sky-reaching river, there are a lot of fist-sized pebbles of different colors.
Stay away from the river bank, and there should be no danger in picking up some.
As for Luo Zhan's talk of picking up pebbles, Xie Xi didn't have any objections. Although he didn't know what it was useful for, Luo Zhan turned the sand into solid "rocks", so he had nothing to say.
It didn't take long for the pebbles to be brought back.
Luo Zhan began to add the mixed volcanic ash into the mold again.
Luo Zhi held a wooden board with a handle, and bit by bit the mixed volcanic ash was rolled into the mold to make it flat and compact.
Only in this way can we ensure that the "slate" produced is strong and not hollow.
He had done the same before.
But this time was different. After filling the mold to its fullest, Luo Li began to put the pebbles in one by one.
Let the pebbles be embedded in the cement that has not yet solidified, leaving only one side exposed.
Try to keep the pebbles as flat as possible. To be honest, each pebble is manually placed, which takes more time than pure cement bricks.
But he has no shortage of people, isn't he, he has the support of a whole Xietong ancient clan, didn't he say that he has sent a message back for more Xietong clan to come.
The pebbles that were put in squeezed out the cement, and Luo Zhan also removed it bit by bit.
Some people say that pebbles are the most natural gemstones in nature, which is actually true.
The clean pebbles are put together, no matter how you look at it, it is beautiful.
After solidification, a unique huge "stone slab" appeared in front of Luo Zhan.
The solidity of cement and the beauty of pebbles blend together.
Luo Zhan touched the side of the flat cobblestone, his whole eyes were shining brightly.
Is marble beautiful?Nature is beautiful, because it is pure natural jade, no matter the texture or what, it is the best.
But the cobblestone side of the stone slab that Luo Zhan got out is also like pieces of jade gemstones inlaid.
It is impossible to be completely flat like a mirror surface, but we have tried our best to avoid too strong a sense of bulge.
Whether it is visual or hand feeling, it is a good "stone", which is completely different from the rough cement block just now. Although its essence is still a cement block, it is only embedded with pebbles the size of a fist before the cement has solidified. Changed the visual effect.
Negative Xi was also a little confused, and it wasn't complicated to say it, because he watched the whole process.
He couldn't even imagine what a house built with such "stone materials" would look like.
At the last moment, they were still living in the cave.
Luo Zhan swallowed his saliva, this should be the final product he needs.
In the future, pebbles of different colors will be selected for mosaic at most, such as pure white, pure yellow...
Pebbles naturally have the real feeling of jade, whether it is raining or scorching sun, it will not affect its appearance at all.
As for whether it can withstand wind and rain, it is completely unnecessary to consider, and it is not necessary to check how they are formed.
Luo Li began to teach the people of the Xietong tribe to start pouring the "stone slab". Although they watched the whole process, they still had to teach the details one by one, and there should be no mistakes.
Construction is serious and rigorous, and he had to instill this concept in the Xietong tribe.
In fact, there is a problem here. The people of the Xietong tribe have never used the experience of building, and they don't even have the concept.
Don't underestimate this, it is very prone to various unpredictable problems.
Therefore, the first project that Luo Zhi decided to build was the city square.
The difficulty of the square should be the lowest, so you should get used to it first.
To build a city square, the land has to be dug, because the surface of the land is actually soft, so if you put bricks on it, the bottom will be hollow.
There is another reason for digging the ground, to level the ground completely.
Of course, this is all physical work, and the supervisor is extremely meticulous. Otherwise, if there is a slight unevenness, it will look like a rough project, not even a tofu project.
As for the levelness of the ground, it is also easy to measure, just pull a rope straight and measure it.
The city square planned by Luo Ji is at the very center of his land.
Wide city squares are a must.
There has to be a landmark, there has to be a fountain...
He is also a man of pursuit.
In other words, everyone has a pursuit of beauty.
As for the iconic buildings, Luo Zhan had a smug smile on his lips, he had already thought about it.
Naturally, the fountain needs to be planned well, and a steam pump can handle it. Of course, fountains are not available all the time. When you need to use that steam pump to pump water, drive the fountain by the way. Otherwise, arrange a person to burn the steam engine every day for the fountain in the square. It's not realistic either.
Of course, when the city is built, the water supply required by a city is very large. The steam pump may really have to run 24 hours a day, so it is not impossible to keep the fountain running.
Because Luo Zhan blocked his area, the other ancient people could only watch from a distance, and they were not sure what they were doing.
But what is certain is that the Xietong clan has really completely put aside the things in their hands and is doing things for the Li clan.
However, those children who followed Luo Li to learn writing could come in, so every time these children returned to their tribal camp, the first thing they did was to fall on the ground and roll around, screaming that no one could understand.
These adults have no idea what they saw.
Although they don't know exactly what they built, but it's so beautiful that it makes people feel stunned at first glance, and they can't move their eyes at all.
That must be the greatest and greatest thing in this world.
Even if they don't study characters now, they are willing to watch them there all day long.
Even the cool boys of the bloody ancient clan rolled on the ground after they went back. If they didn't scream, they would keep rolling.
The technical content of the construction of the city square is indeed much lower. Pour wet cement on the flat ground, level it, and then spread the "stone" on it, and gently tap on the "stone" to ensure that the "stone" and cement Complete bonding, this process requires constant adjustment of the flatness of the "stone", so that each stone inlaid is at the same height as the rope used to measure the balance.
The gap between the two stone slabs is also filled with cement. Although this problem seems small, whether the quality is good or not is often reflected in these small aspects.
For a month, for a whole month, Luo Zhan stayed in the square with almost all the people from the ancient Xietong clan.
It stands to reason that there are a lot of people from the Xietong Ancient Clan, no matter how big the city square is, it would not take so many people a month.
But because it was the first time construction, once there was a slight mistake, Luo Zhan would rather dig it out and do it again.
Are the Xietong people bored?
No, on the contrary, their arrogance is getting higher and higher day by day. It can be said that they are more excited than Luo Zhan's mental state, and they are more cautious and serious.
Because they can see with their own eyes what they have made.
Is a stone studded with pebbles beautiful?
It's beautiful, but it's just beautiful, and it can't be as shocking as the scene covering the entire ground.
In their hands, what was born was the masterpiece of the gods.
During this month, Luo Zhan also looked at his seedlings from time to time. Now they can no longer be described as seedlings, they are as high as knees.
But basically they all went back the same day and came back the same day. The weeding of the paddy fields was taught to the people of the ancient Xietong tribe who guarded the steam pumps there.
He is now a wise man of the Xietong Ancient Clan. For this small request, others are still willing to help.
Luo Zhan wished he could separate himself, taking care of his seedlings and building his city square at the same time.
In a month's time, the city square is about to be completed.
In the very center of the square, there is a strange building surrounded by a surrounding pool, of course there is no water in the pool.
The square is also dusty, and no matter how careful it is, there are still some cement spots left on it.
