"What is a toilet?" Cangshi was a little confused.
"It's a special place for pooping and peeing." Yang Cheng explained: "One of the reasons why our tribe is so smelly now is because adults and children did not poop or pee in the designated place."
"Oh, that's right." Cangshi understood.
He didn't say that he could just find a random place in the wild to poop and pee.
Primitive society is not like the earth. There are all kinds of ferocious beasts lurking in the wild. If you go outside the tribe to deal with them, you will easily run into danger.
"Wu, tell me how to dig it."
The two beast-eared girls didn't have so many questions. They were very motivated and couldn't wait to ask.
It has been a day since he arrived at the Qingque Tribe, and Yang Cheng knew the terrain of the Qingque Tribe well.
On weekdays, everyone in the Qingque tribe sleeps in the cave, but their activities are in the open space below the cave.
Moreover, according to Yang Cheng's plan, when the Qingque tribe develops, they will definitely move out of the cave and build houses on the open land.
Therefore, the location of toilets and showers cannot be placed in the middle of the open space, but must be placed on the edge that does not affect daily life.
"Just the corner over there." Yang Cheng pointed to a corner on the right side of the open space and said, "In that place, dig two toilets and two bathrooms. Remember to separate them separately!"
"okay."
As soon as Yang Cheng's order was given, everyone began to work seriously.
Speaking of human beings in primitive society, they were very strong. They could move large rocks in the shape of door panels without any effort.
More than twenty tribesmen, plus a few totem warriors, were under the command of Yang Cheng.
The toilet was quickly built. The four walls of the toilet were made of solid rocks;
There is a cesspit underneath the toilet, and the roof is covered with thatch and leaves, giving it a rustic and ancient beauty.
The same goes for the bathroom.
Yang Cheng originally planned to build a bathtub, but he thought it was unnecessary and the conditions did not allow it. It would be easy for water to come in but difficult to drain out.
So I just made it a bigger circle like the toilet, with the four walls piled with rocks and covered with thatch and leaves.
Then Yang Cheng carved the two characters "male" and "female" with stones on the walls of the toilet and shower room.
He gathered everyone, pointed to the words on the wall, and said: "This toilet is divided into men's and women's. The one with the word 'male' written on it is the men's toilet, and the one with the word 'female' written on it is the women's toilet!"
Speaking of this, Yang Cheng paused, looked at everyone seriously, and warned:
"You must understand clearly that you have to go to the toilet that belongs to your own gender to poop and pee. You are not allowed to go to the toilet that does not belong to your own gender. If anyone has a bad influence, I will definitely punish him severely!"
After more than a day of getting along.
Yang Cheng discovered that the people of the Qingque tribe were not completely like primitive people and had no concept of ethical shame.
They have developed certain ethics, right and wrong, shame, and know the difference between men and women.
Sure enough, Cangshi nodded seriously and said: "Don't worry, we will definitely abide by it seriously!"
As he spoke, he turned around, stared at the crowd, and said, "I've heard from the witches. If anyone makes a mistake on purpose, or peeks at someone else taking a shower, I will definitely cut off one of his fingers!"
Cang Shi strongly stood up for Yang Cheng, and everyone was stunned and repeatedly patted their chests in assurance.
However, after Cangshi showed his majesty, he rubbed his head and said sheepishly: "Witch, I have a question..."
"Cang Shi, tell me." Yang Cheng said.
"Witch, what did you write on the wall? We can't understand it." Cangshi looked embarrassed.
He could tell that what Yang Cheng painted on the wall had a meaning, but they couldn't understand it at all.
"Oh, look at my memory."
Yang Cheng patted his head and forgot that primitive people couldn't read.
"The word 'male' means men's toilets and showers, and the word 'female' means women's toilets and showers." Yang Cheng explained briefly.
Everyone understood, but they were a little embarrassed.
Presumably these two characters written by witches are witchcraft characters.
But they don’t have the talent to become witches, they can’t inherit the witch heritage, and they can’t understand witch writing.
At that time, if you enter the wrong toilet or shower room for this reason, wouldn't it be very unlucky to lose a finger?
As everyone knows, these two characters written by Yang Cheng are pure simplified Chinese characters and are in another language.
Yang Cheng saw the embarrassment on everyone's faces, and after thinking about it, he understood everyone's worries.
So, Yang Cheng found some vines, tied them to wooden sticks, and hung them next to the toilet door.
"Let's do this!" Yang Cheng said: "From now on, the place where one wooden stick is hung is for men, and the place where two wooden sticks are hung is for women."
"That's good, now I can tell the difference clearly!"
"Hey, this is simple, don't worry if you can't tell the difference."
"This method of witchcraft is great!"
…
Everyone cheered and expressed warm praise for Yang Cheng's method.
Yang Cheng pressed his hand to keep everyone quiet and said: "Okay, now that everyone can distinguish the toilet and shower room, let's go to their own places from now on.
However, everyone must clearly recognize these two words on the wall, as they will be used in many places in the future. "
As soon as these words came out.
Everyone couldn't help but have a bit of a grimace.
It's okay for them to hunt and do things, but it's really difficult for them to read.
No, Yan Lin and Xing shook Yang Cheng's arms and begged: "Witch, can you do it if you don't know how to read?"
"no!"
Yang Cheng mercilessly threw away the arms of the two beast-eared girls, and said solemnly: "You have to know how to read. If our Qingque tribe wants to develop and grow, we must know how to read and learn knowledge."
Culture is the ladder of progress for human society!
And it was precisely because of cultural limitations that it took more than ten thousand years for primitive society to develop into feudal society.
The advanced class level will surely defeat the backward class level.
Yang Cheng did not say that he would push the tribe into feudal society at once, but he had to work hard to develop in this direction.
In this way, the tribe will have stronger fighting power, and at least there will be no problem in defeating the Black Monkey tribe.
And the Qingque Tribe in the future will definitely not be just these people, there will be people from other tribes joining.
At this time, the rule of interests and force is not enough. More spiritual rule and assimilation is also needed. This is the foundation of a tribe.
Seeing Yang Cheng's resolute attitude, the two beast-eared girls suddenly stopped. Yan Lin's tiger ears drooped weakly, and Xing's succubus-like tail stopped wagging.
The mood of the tribesmen was also affected by the two of them, and they became a little depressed.
