After Chu Li showed the pottery to Father Yinhong, he placed all the pottery on the stone beside him.

People in the tribe really want to know what pottery is. Now that it has been fired, I will show it to the big guys to satisfy their curiosity.

At this time, it was just dawn, and everyone in the tribe had just woken up, and no one had noticed Chu Li's actions.

"Uncle, if they ask later, just tell them, I'm going back to the cave first."

Yinhong's father cheerfully responded, "Okay, I understand."

Chu Li walks briskly, with a faint smile on his fair face. The firing of pottery means that everyone's living standards will be improved to the Neolithic period, which is a very big progress.

"High Priest." Jiqian's crisp voice came over.

Chu Li was surprised, "Why did you wake up so early?"

Jiqian was in high spirits, "I'm here to help you."

Chu Li felt sorry for the child, he was so sensible at such a young age, "Where is my brother?"

"He's still sleeping."

Chu Li led Jiqian into the cave, and asked with concern, "Then if he wakes up, will he cry if he can't find you for a while?"

"No, I told him last night, he will wake up later and will come up."

"Okay, let's make breakfast together."

"it is good."

……

on level ground.

A sub-orc man from the Sanmiao tribe asked novelty, "What is this?"

After hearing this, Father Yinhong walked over and explained to everyone, "This is pottery, the high priest just made it, and I put it here for you to see."

An orc from the Jiuli tribe repeated in surprise, "Pottery?"

"Well, the high priest said that this is a bowl, this is a saucer, this is a plate, and this is a basin, and they will be used to replace our bulky stone tools in the future."

Yinhong praised, "That's great. Stone tools are not only difficult to polish, but also so heavy. If we use this pottery instead, it can save a lot of labor."

An orc man next to him answered, "Yes, yes, the high priest is too smart to make something like this."

A group of people chattered about pottery.

Chu Li came.

"High Priest." Everyone shouted respectfully.

Chu Li asked with a smile, "Do you still like pottery?"

"like."

"If you like it, let's make pottery together after I get all the materials together."

Lie Shan came running out of breath, "I like it too."

Everyone laughed at him, and they didn't know what the high priest asked, so they just said they liked it.

Chu Li was curious, "How did you run like this?"

Lie Shan panted, "Huhuhu...huhuhu..., getting up late, getting up late."

"I won't go if I get up late, what are you doing in such a hurry?"

"Going to go."

Chu Li pursed his lips, "Let's go, let's go."

Everyone followed Chuli and walked slowly towards the distance.

……

A bamboo fell obliquely onto the next bamboo, and then was pulled to the ground, the branches were removed, and carried to the tribe.

One by one.

Yinhong asked curiously, "High Priest, what are you going to do?"

"Make bamboo stools, bamboo frames, and bamboo boxes." Chu Li glanced at him, and then concentrated on the things at hand.

"What are you doing?"

"I make things and put them in the bamboo house, and then I can start to see a doctor there."

Yinhong was pleasantly surprised, "Then what can I do, let me help you?"

"You go and build a fire for me. After a while, the bamboo needs to be baked and shaped by the fire when it is bent."

"it is good."

Chu Li cut the bamboo into sections and smoothed the edges, then used a triangular ruler to measure the length of the bamboo, and then drilled holes to make the frame of the stool.

Then cut bamboo slices, which need to be thicker, to be used as the surface of the stool, on which the buttocks sit.

The process of making stools is somewhat complicated, but the requirements are not high, and it can be made at this level.

There are many people around watching, watching with relish.

Chu Li was operating while explaining. His language was detailed, peaceful and easy to understand, and he could understand it after just one listening.

"High Priest, the fire is burning."

"it is good."

Chu Li took the bamboo he had processed to the fire and roasted it. Two parts of the bamboo had been cut off on one side, and those two parts needed to be bent and shaped. The two ends of the bamboo were the two legs of the stool.

Two such bamboos form the four legs of the stool.

Add the rest of the parts on top of it one by one, and finally insert bamboo pieces into the holes in the legs of the stool and fix them, and the bamboo stool is ready.

The bamboo stool looks boxy, durable and knee-high.

"If you watch the meeting, you can try to make it yourself with bamboo. You can take the finished stool back and use it yourself. You don't need to put it in the bamboo house. If there is anything you don't know, just ask me."

Some orcs were eager to try, "Okay, High Priest."

Next, Chuli makes bamboo shelves, which are layered one by one like a bookshelf. They are used to place bamboo boxes containing herbs. The overall effect is that of the drawers in a Chinese medicine room.

Chuli is a person who either does not do things or does his best.

Bamboo frames are simpler than making bamboo stools.

Choose four bamboos of the same length and size, and cut a notch at a certain position on the top, keeping the notch in a straight line. This is the frame of the bamboo frame.

Take two bamboos of the same length, cut a bamboo slit at the position of the bamboo joint, and the width of the bamboo slit is half a centimeter.

The same treatment is done for two bamboos, and then the bamboo slices are tightly inserted into these bamboo gaps to form a plane, and then fixed to the frame of the bamboo frame to form a layer on the bamboo frame.

Do the same for the rest of the bamboo frame layers, making a total of five layers.

The last is the bamboo box, which is spliced ​​with bamboo pieces. After it is finished, it looks like the box for the matches, but this one is bigger.

Only one kind of Chuli was made, and it was already getting dark.

"Let's go back to dinner, and do it again tomorrow."

"Yes, High Priest."

……

After the meal, Chu Li didn't stop. He went to the forest to pick a log, about one meter long.

Use a stone knife to slowly cut off a layer of pits and hollows on the surface, and cut it into a large one and a small one.

Then engrave the scale on the wooden pole, the first scale is longer, the second scale is smaller, the third and fourth scales are the same length, the fifth scale is longer, but not longer than the first scale, and the length of the sixth scale is the same as that of the first scale. Four are the same until the ninth, and the tenth is as long as the first.

By analogy, ten groups are engraved, and the last scale is not much different from the position of five centimeters from the end of the rod.

Find a stone with relatively hard density and large density, polish the top into the shape of the waist of a gourd, and tie a hemp rope braided into it.

A braided hemp rope is tied to the position of the club head, and a hemp rope with a light bamboo plate hanging underneath it is tied in front of it, and the position of the hemp rope remains unchanged.

Then hang the hemp rope on the stone to the position of the first scale on the pole, hold the hemp rope at the head of the pole, and level it.

Hanging in the air with the hemp rope, if the pole cannot maintain balance, move the position of the hemp rope until the pole is flat.

After the pole is flat, the position of the portable hemp rope is fixed there.

Jiqian touched it with his hand, "High Priest, what is this?"

"This is called a scale, something that measures the weight of something." He may not be very precise in doing this, but it works.

"Oh." Jiqian seemed to understand but half understood.

Chu Li took a handful of vegetables and put them on a bamboo plate, that is, a weighing pan, and weighed them with a hemp rope.

The weight rope stops at the fifth scale, which is half a catty.

I took the handful of green vegetables and squeezed them, and it only weighed about half a catty, so the weighing error should not be too big.

I am very happy.

He took some more things to weigh, and the weight he weighed was about the same as he estimated in his heart, so he was more satisfied.

"Okay, it's all right now, let's take my brother back to the cave to sleep."

"it is good."

Chu Li's excitement was over, and he fell asleep.

As for the exception that Ao Zhan did not come to see him tonight, he ignored it in his busy schedule.

……

In the cave, Chu Li weighed all the fans with a scale, and then wrote the total weight on the stone with a charcoal pencil.

"Next, we will distribute the fans. We agreed to divide them per person. Now that the fans are dried, we will distribute them to everyone. Take them back and eat them as you like."

The crowd cheered.

"Since some people don't work from the beginning to the end, and we distribute fans according to the principle of more work, more pay, so here we need to calculate."

"High Priest, what is the calculation?"

"Calculation is counting the number. For example, if we divide fans, as long as the people who came to help have worked for half a day, so we use the half-day as a unit to count how many half-days everyone has worked in total, and use the total weight of fans. Subtracting the total half-day amount, we can get how many fans can be divided into one and a half days."

Someone understood, "Then if a person works for two and a half days, he will get two shares, and if he works for three and a half days, he will get three shares?"

Chu Li's eyes showed appreciation, "Yes, that's what it means. Now everyone report to me how many half-days they have done, and I will count and calculate."

Yinhong, "I did it for five and a half days."

Chu Li wrote Yinhong's "5" on the stone, and then started a new beginning and wrote the word "正" for easy statistics, "Next."

Lie Shan, "I also worked for five and a half days."

Then everyone lined up and reported to Chuli one by one.

Chu Li believed that no one would lie, so he wrote it down.

"Is it all over?"

Everyone responded in unison, "It's gone."

"Okay, let me count the word "positive". There are a total of 120 half-days, and the fans have a total of 370 catties. If you calculate it, it will be three catties per half-day, which is an extra ten catties."

Everyone unanimously asked Chu Li to ask for the ten catties, and Chu Li accepted. The ten catties were revenge for his technical guidance.

"Five half-days get fifteen catties, four and half-days get twelve catties, three and half-days get nine catties, two and half-days get six catties, and one-and-a-half-days get three catties. Do you hear clearly?"

"Listen clearly." Everyone was very happy. Next time, if there is something to do, they will still work so actively. More work will pay more.

"Okay, I'll call everyone right away."

"Yinhong, Lie Shan, you guys come and help me, two people help me carry the scale, two people arrange the fans and put them on the weighing pan, first weigh fifteen catties, and then five catties and five catties."

"it is good."

The adults were busy dividing fans here, and the children sat at the entrance of the cave and watched curiously. Their little faces were full of curiosity. The high priest was so powerful that he made something new.

After the division was over, everyone hugged the fans and went back to their tribe's cave, with joy on their faces.
