A solid foundation is the basis for a building to stand for thousands of years.
The soldiers have dug out a foundation as big as a football field, with a depth of five meters. Now there are five soldiers in a group, and in the middle is a stone tied with hemp rope, weighing about 300 kilograms. The five soldiers Together, lift the stone high with hemp rope, and then pull it down suddenly to completely tamp the surface of the base.
More than 300 soldiers were divided into 60 groups and formed two large and small circles on the five-meter-deep foundation. The outer ones walked clockwise and the inner ones walked counter-clockwise, and there was endless shouting.
The soldiers have been doing work like this for a week, and the flat surface of the foundation has been tamped down to a very hard level by boulders.
It feels hard when you step on it, and the ground below has been compacted to an exaggerated level of hardness.
The soldiers have hit the ground with stones countless times this week.
After returning to the tribe, at the center of the tribe, I saw a beautiful figure from a long way away.
Tang Ying has been waiting here for a long time. Looking at Ye Qiong riding on Dudu's back, her pretty red face showed some excitement.
They haven't seen each other for nearly a month, and this separation is also the longest for the two of them.
Ye Qiong turned over and jumped off Daidai's back, then waved his hand towards Daidai, signaling Daidai to go home.
Daidai was also very discerning and ran away immediately. As for where he was going, Ye Qiong naturally didn't bother to care about it.
Tang Ying took her directly to the caravan.
Now that Yang Jianxin and Tang Li were back, the caravan seemed a bit empty and not very popular.
Early the next morning, Ye Qiong woke up on time.
It had been a month since he had returned to the tribe, and Ye Qiong began to jog around the tribe.
There are currently two main city construction tasks for the soldiers. One is the pyramid residence on the central tribe's side, and the second is the moat for the stone city wall.
Both sides were beginning to dig foundations. In order to save water resources, Ye Qiong asked the soldiers to compact the foundation of the moat.
In this case, water will penetrate very slowly in the future, and it is obviously impossible to make a layer of waterproofing like a ship.
Ye Qiong walked around the entire tribe, and finally stopped at the original northern wall of the central tribe.
A month has passed, and the plants planted earlier have completely changed. Some fruit trees are still growing relatively quickly.
The plant that Ye Qiong is most concerned about right now is Liang Chun, which may become a staple food.
After walking to the spot where Liang Chun was planted in front, Ye Qiong's heartbeat began to speed up because he saw several plants that looked like weeds.
But what Ye Qiong is sure of is that these are definitely not weeds. Every one of them was planted by Ye Qiong himself.
So I was particularly impressed. The area was about one square meter, a total of five plants were planted, and now a total of three plants have grown.
The survival rate is at a barely acceptable level. As for how long it will take for it to bear fruit, further records are needed.
Ye Qiong is still very happy now. As long as this thing can grow to the point where it can be picked in three to five months, it means that the farming era of Ye Qiong tribe may be coming.
The advent of the farming era meant that tribes no longer had to hunt monsters in the summer and could better develop other areas.
By then, based on Ye Qiong's philosophy, the tribe's development speed will be very fast.
It will reach an astonishing level, after all, Ye Qiong can provide a lot of theoretical things.
Ye Qiong squatted down, stretched out his right hand, and began to gently stroke Liang Chun's tender shoots.
After getting some wooden branches from the surroundings, Ye Qiong circled the land of about one square meter.
As the saying goes, a single spark can start a prairie fire. This square of land has epoch-making significance for Ye Qiong's tribe.
After morning, the weather started to get hotter.
Summer in Snow Star has officially arrived. During this time, warriors and tribesmen must adjust their schedules.
I sleep at noon during the day and work at night.
At noon, the intensity of the star's light is so high that it is impossible to work at all. Your skin will be burned as long as you stay outside for an hour or two.
Therefore, for the tribe, it is best for the tribesmen responsible for city defense construction to work at night.
In the past, when the Yeqiong tribe migrated, they would gather and hunt at night in summer, and then sleep at noon.
As long as this kind of work and rest is reversed, you can quickly adapt to summer life.
The first trip has ended, and a lot of supplies and food have been brought back to the tribe, but these are still not enough. After the scorching heat of summer has passed, a second trip will be needed.
Generally speaking, the tribe is not short of food this year, but they need to collect more supplies.
After surrounding Liang Chu's seedlings, Ye Qiong raised his head and looked at the blue mother star and the stars on the other side. Now he was a little worried whether these Liang Chu's seedlings would be killed by the sun.
When he thought of this, Ye Qiong ran back to the tribe, brought a large piece of linen cloth, and put it on the fence he had just made.
It didn't block all the light, but left half of it out.
After it was done, Ye Qiong clapped his hands with satisfaction and waited for these Liang Chu seedlings to continue to grow, and then see when exactly they would bloom and bear fruit.
Although the road is still long, everything is moving towards Ye Qiong's ideal state.
The heat was unbearable, and after being outside in the sun for a long time, his skin felt painful. Ye Qiong rubbed his shoulders, ran back to the research room, and began to work on the accessories of the steam engine.
The caravan is almost back. If there is another batch of iron by then, Ye Qiong can get the steam engine out.
Ye Qiong is currently studying other things, which is still in a design theory state, so the laboratory is still very quiet.
After the afternoon, when the starlight was no longer so scorching, the tribesmen went out one after another to continue today's work. Most of the warriors and tribesmen had just woken up at this time. After eating, they would We have started the day's construction of city defense. We will do more work at night when it is cooler.
Ye Qiong walked out of the laboratory, looked at the sky, and prepared to go to the coal mine base. After all, he hadn't been there for a month, and Ye Qiong was quite concerned about the situation there.
After blowing a whistle and calling Dudu over, Ye Qiong turned over and rode up, then ran out from the east gate of the stone city wall and headed straight for the coal mine base.
