Chapter 244 Yanghu
After the matter was negotiated, the conditions given by Wang Wei had no reason to refuse.
Each tribe selects some young and strong people according to the number of people and is assigned by Wang Wei, who is responsible for building passes in Yanghu.
The royal family will send two to three tribes who know Chinese, arithmetic and various techniques to each tribe in the next two months to teach their tribe's work.
In the next six months, the royal family will also send male and female grass deer, breeding pigs and big white insect eggs to them according to the number of people in each tribe to teach them to raise them.
Of course, these breeding animals are not donated free of charge, but require them to pay a certain price.
After talking about the matter, the tribes of Dahe jointly worshiped their ancestors.
The main sacrifice is pig's head, and the secondary sacrifice is a bottle of deer milk, a plate of big white worms, honey, eggs and other royal foods.
The other sacrificial vessels are various tools invented by the royal family.
For example, bows and arrows, saws, copper sickles, fishing nets, etc.
After two days of busyness, the sacrifices in the old tribe of the Eagle tribe were completed this time, and the soldiers of the royal clan also began to transport the Hui tribes from various tribes to count the number of people.
Within one month, the young and strong people drawn by each tribe must be in place.
During this month, in addition to farming, the royal family also needed to build straw sheds that were enough for 4,000 people to live in.
Fortunately, the royal craftsmen have already been experienced in building simple straw sheds, which will not stump them.
After Wang Wei returned, he began to take charge of farming.
With the help of the bronze plow, the land reclamation progressed rapidly in the last month.
Large areas of land suitable for cultivation were reclaimed. When Wang Wei returned, the workers of the tribe had already begun to repair the ridges and dig the canals used for irrigation.
In this era, the biggest advantage of land reclaiming is to identify land.
The land that Wang Wei reclaimed is close to the water source and the terrain is flat, so there is no need to be too flat after land reclamation.
At the same time, a group of carpenters who participated in the shipbuilding of the royal family also completed 200 water trucks in accordance with Wang Wei's requirements.
These waterwheels are the basis of irrigation. They can lead the water from the river to high places and then flow into the fields through the canals.
The royal family has become more busy than ever at this time.
Every morning, those representatives who have learned sowing with Wang Wei will go to the fields.
Illustrated a worker about the use of the trolley and explained the depth and distance of farming.
Many people even went to the river to find places where water trucks were easily arranged.
With the help of Yanyan No. 1 and No. 2, columns were deeply penetrated into the mud in the river.
One water truck has started to install and test.
The women and children of the royal family knew that they would be sent to the other tribes in a month, and they were somewhat frightened and confused about the future.
But in the end, they all chose to believe in Wang Wei.
Every night, Wang Wei would work overtime to make up for them and teach them all kinds of knowledge.
During the day, Wang Wei had to go to the fields to patrol again.
In this world, Wang Wei may only have been farmed.
The first cultivation was on such a large scale. Any negligence could affect the germination rate of seeds.
Seven days later, the first batch of installed water trucks began to be refrigerated.
Amid the surprised expressions of the tribe members, the water wheel turned by itself along the river.
After the water in the bamboo tube is transferred to the apex, the water is transported to the water bridge built by the bamboo.
Then the water in the water bridge flows downstream and enters the canal.
In this way, the water originally in the river could flow through the canal into the fields without consuming any effort from the tribe.
When a field is short of water, you only need to dig up the ridges to irrigate it.
This power to change nature has inspired the tribe.
The tribe members were even more convinced of what Wang Wei said about growing food.
Day and night, Wang Wei didn't have a moment of free time.
Every day after going back, I fell down and fell asleep.
Although he was tired and sleepy, he felt extremely fulfilled as he watched the land completed cultivation.
Just when the royal family was busy.
The number of young and strong people drawn by each tribe has also been counted.
When the tribes of these tribes learned that Wang Wei had dispatched young men to build a twenty-mile pass and blocked the grassland people outside, they all felt that Wang Wei was crazy or too inflated.
Human power is extremely small in front of nature.
The distance between Yang Lake and the mountains cannot be seen at all.
No one thinks that this idea can be realized when they want to build a wall in such a place, and it is a brick wall that they have only heard of but never seen before.
However, after hearing the benefits Wang Wei gave to their tribes, the tribe members who were originally very resistant to the cultivation of the pass were all smiling and willing to accept it.
The construction was completed and could keep the grassland people out, and from then on, everyone had no worries.
If the construction fails, they can get compensation from the royal family.
As long as you can learn how to burn pottery and smelting copper, you won’t have to be controlled by the royal family everywhere in the future.
Some tribes even hoped that Wang Wei would fail to build a pass.
In this way, they can learn techniques such as burning pottery and smelting copper.
Half a month later, the young and strong men drawn from tribes began to step onto the royal sailing ships.
They did not pass the royal family during this trip, but were sent directly to Yanghu.
On the other side of Yanghu Lake, it is close to the water source and the lake is larger, making it convenient to cast nets to catch fish and lush water plants.
So the hut was built near Yanghu Lake.
The royal family's cultivation gradually came to an end.
Wang Wei no longer needs to stare at the next thing.
After the busy farming season, the royal family will enter a period of slowness.
The main energy will be placed on the food that will be stored for winter.
And the acquisition of food is naturally inseparable from the river.
Next, the royal family will be captured in the river every half month.
The manpower for fishing and the manpower for handling fish afterwards were just replaced by workers who had been idle from the busy farming industry.
Although the river is wide, fishing in the same place will definitely not work.
No matter how dense the fish are, a section of the river cannot stop a thousand-meter-long net from taking turns to catch fish.
Therefore, the location of each fishing will be different.
After building the waterwheel, the carpenters trained by the royal family have already begun to build new sailboats.
With the experience of the previous few times, coupled with the continuous innovation of bronze tools used in woodworking, the construction speed of sailboats will be much higher than before.
The fish caught on the downstream net will be transported to the royal family for treatment.
Wang Wei calculated that even if the fish are not exhausted, even if the net explodes every time, only five sailboats are needed to get busy.
Except for some of the caught fish, they are marinated and stored as spare grain, the remaining ones are dried and sent to Yanghu for early grain reserves.
Wang Wei predicts that it will take at least two months for him to gain self-sufficiency in Yanghu.
In the past two months, the supply of food needs the support of the tribe.
And the royal family also began to transport people out.
One by one, the royal family members were sent to other tribes by sailboats.
Most of them are women, but there are also many half-aged children like Wang Hu.
They will take what they learned from Wang Wei and go to various tribes to teach.
In addition to the small number of soldiers who were responsible for protecting the old woman and others, only breastfeeding women and some children who were not yet enlightened or were still in their infancy were left.
Wang Wei, this time he went to Yanghu, he needed to bring most of the soldiers from the clan to leave.
As for the royal family, it can be said that except for the rows of granaries, houses, and unbuilt schools and other landmark buildings, there are only old women and the others left.
The remaining 95% are workers from the Dahe tribes.
Fortunately, in the past six months since they arrived at the royal family, they have completely adapted to life here. They know what they need to do and what they can't do.
The old woman stayed in the tribe and just needed to coordinate the management according to Wang Wei's instructions.
Yanghu is not far from the royal family, and now there are horses, the distance is closer.
