In the Vine Tribe residential area, Jiang Xuan pushed a wheelbarrow slowly along the road.
This strange means of transportation immediately attracted the attention of the tribal people, especially the children, who all gathered around and chattered about what it was.
Jiang Xuan stopped, patted the unicycle, smiled and said to one of the children: "Tiandong, sit on it!"
Tiandong, the son of Uncaria, is three years old this year.
The tribesmen in this world are very strong, and a three-year-old child is already very agile.
"I am coming!"
Xiao Tiandong ran over excitedly, quickly climbed onto the frame of the unicycle, and sat on the left side. It felt very fresh.
Jiang Xuan asked another child to sit on the right side of the wheelbarrow, and then pushed the two children forward.
This time, there were more people watching, and everyone was chattering and discussing, and they were all guessing what this kind of thing was used for.
"I think it is used as a mount. You see, it has a circle as a foot and it can run very fast."
"Yes, yes, the leader asked those two children to sit on it."
"What you said is wrong, I think it is used for fighting..."
…
Everyone was discussing fiercely, their voices attracted more people, and the crowd of onlookers became larger and larger.
When Jiang Xuan pushed the two children to the open space in the center of the residential area, there were already so many people watching that the guards had to come over to maintain order.
Nan Xing walked up to Jiang Xuan, stared at the unicycle curiously for a while, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Chief, what is this?"
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
"This is called a wheelbarrow. It can carry people and pull a lot of goods. You can think of it as an animal that doesn't need to eat grass or drink water. Of course, the animal can move on its own, but the wheelbarrow needs someone to push it."
Jiang Xuan looked at the crowd of onlookers and said, "I have just shown you how the wheelbarrow can carry people. Now I will show you how it can pull goods."
Jiang Xuan had some animal skin bags brought in, tied them tightly to the frame of the wheelbarrow with ropes, and then pushed the wheelbarrow forward.
As he pushed forward, he explained: "In the past, when we moved things, we had to carry them directly, ask someone to carry them together, or carry them on our shoulders. Not only was it very hard, but there were very few things that could be carried."
"Now, with wheelbarrows, as long as the road is good, one person can transport goods that used to take several people to carry, and the work efficiency is greatly improved."
Jiang Xuan demonstrated the use of a unicycle to the people of the Teng tribe, including turning, braking, etc.
Then, he asked everyone: "Who is willing to come over and give it a try?"
A teenage warrior was the first to shout, "I want to try."
"I want to try too!"
"I also want……"
Everyone stepped forward one after another, eager to try.
Jiang Xuan said with a smile: "Don't make a mess, come one by one."
The young soldiers tried to push the wheelbarrow one by one. When the wheel started turning, they shouted excitedly, and the crowd was filled with joy.
At this time, Jiang Xuan stood outside the crowd, found a big rock to sit on, and looked at the lively crowd, feeling a sense of satisfaction in his heart.
Not long after, Jiang Xuan saw Hongtu, the leader of the engineering team, also in the crowd, so he waved him over.
"leader."
Hongtu walked up to Jiang Xuan. Due to working every day and being exposed to the sun and wind, his skin was close to bronze. His hands were wide and rough, and he looked more honest and reliable.
Jiang Xuan pointed to the unicycle and said: "In the future, our Vine Tribe will manufacture a large number of vehicles, not just unicycles, but also two-wheelers and three-wheelers..."
"Although these vehicles don't need food and water, compared to those animals, they need smoother roads to transport things better. Therefore, I need your engineering team to build roads that can be used by vehicles."
Hongtu asked in a low voice: "Chief, where do you want to build something?"
"First build the main roads near the tribe, especially the roads between the crop fields and the warehouses. As long as the roads are built and some vehicles are built, it will be much more convenient for the planting team to transport fertilizers, grains, vegetables, and straw in the future."
Hongtu asked again: "Chief, how wide should the road be built?"
Jiang Xuan thought for a while, made some gestures, and said, "Let's make it two meters wide."
The Vine Tribe has already produced a batch of bronze rulers with the same scale, and the engineering team naturally has them, so Hong Tu will know how wide the road will be when he hears it.
"There are still a few ditches that have not been completed over the new crop fields. I can dispatch some people to build the roads."
Jiang Xuan waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, it's summer now. Flood control is more important than road construction. Those crops are our winter rations. Let's wait until the ditch is built before building the road."
"Yes, we will repair the ditch as soon as possible and then start building the road."
Jiang Xuan patted Hongtu's broad shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Hongtu said hurriedly: "It's not hard work, we just do some rough work."
Jiang Xuan discussed some details about road construction with Hongtu, and then Hongtu left in a hurry to keep an eye on the progress of the ditch construction.
Jiang Xuan planned to visit the smelting workshop and woodwork workshop to ask them to make more wheelbarrows and try to make two-wheeled trolleys.
However, as soon as he was halfway there, a soldier hurried over.
"Chief, something happened to the hunting team."
"What happened?"
Jiang Xuan's expression suddenly became serious. The hunting team was one of the most powerful combat forces in the Vine Tribe. Once something went wrong, the consequences would be serious.
"I don't know exactly what happened. I heard that I suffered a big loss outside."
"Is the person back?"
"came back."
"Where is it, take me there."
"yes."
The soldier immediately led the way, and Jiang Xuan followed towards the west gate.
When Jiang Xuan walked near the vine wall of the west gate, he saw the hunting team walking back at a glance.
The strange thing is that there are no blood stains on the bodies of the first hunting team, and there is no reduction in numbers, but everyone is dejected.
In addition, every time the hunting team came back, they would bring more or less prey, but this time, Jiang Xuan didn't see any prey.
This is obviously not normal.
"Uncaria, what's going on with you?"
Jiang Xuan found Uncaria, the leader of the hunting team, and asked him.
Undo lowered his head in shame and said: "Chief... Chief, I'm sorry for the tribe."
Jiang Xuan frowned and said, "Tell me clearly, what happened?"
"All our prey was stolen, and even some of our weapons were stolen."
"All stolen?"
Jiang Xuan felt a little weird.
The hunting team is one of the most powerful teams in the Vine tribe. They fight against all kinds of ferocious birds and beasts and people from various tribes all year round. Logically speaking, they should be very vigilant.
Moreover, with so many people in the hunting team, even the rat tribe, which is best at stealing, can't steal everything in front of everyone, right?
Uncaria's head lowered, wishing to find a crack in the ground to get in: "We...we were plotted against someone. They didn't know what means they used to make us all fall asleep at night."
"When we woke up the next day, the prey had already been stolen, and some good weapons were also stolen."
Undouji said thoughtfully: "Fortunately, the other party only stole things and had no murderous intentions. Otherwise, we might not be able to come back alive..."
Jiang Xuan frowned tightly after listening to Uncaria's narration.
Which tribe's people are so capable that they can make the entire hunting team fall asleep without anyone noticing?
If such a method is used to kill people, the consequences will be unimaginable.
