Chapter 7 Hidden Talent
Author: Flying de lazy cat
The first thing the members of the Zhouxu Sect tribe did was rub the bark rope.
This is not difficult. Basically, just study it a little hard and you will be able to master it quickly.
However, from the mastery of speed, he can roughly tell which ones are better at doing this kind of manual work.
"Okay, you guys go and help pick up branches and tear the bark."
Through this observation method, Zhou Xu directly replaced the tribe members who were not very good at doing this.
After all, in addition to doing handicrafts, there are quite a lot of things to do within their tribe.
For example, on duty, picking up branches, tearing bark, watching fire, etc.
I won’t talk about the work of on-duty and watching the fire for now.
At this moment, they still have a great demand for branches.
Not only to tear the bark, but more importantly, if they want to obtain more sufficient freshwater resources and keep the ignition burning, they must continue to invest in wood as burning substances.
Under this premise, the temperature here will definitely drop after nightfall.
In fact, he felt a little cold at this moment.
And they had about thirty people, and one fire was not enough, at least two were needed.
At the moment when a fire is successfully created, this is a trivial matter.
After roughly teaching them to rub the bark rope, Zhou Xu took a break and, on the other side of the tribe, used the stones they found, piled up another stone stove, and set off a fire to keep the tribe members warm.
Unfortunately, there is only one fruit shell pot at present, and there is no suitable bone plate available. Otherwise, Zhou Xu would not mind setting up another "freshwater extraction device" so that their efficiency in obtaining fresh water can become higher.
At the same time, this incident also made him realize another problem.
[Everyone has so many mouths, and every time I want to get fresh water, I can't just rely on fresh cooking, right?]
[If you can't find two sets of equipment to improve the extraction speed, you can only store more often, that is, containers are needed.]
Thinking of this, Zhou Xu's eyes swept over the fruit shell bowls again.
The quantity and capacity are limited, and considering what happens later, it is not enough at all.
[You have to think of some way, if you want to use the bone dagger, I don’t know if you can dig out a wooden bowl, but before that, you have to find wood with enough thickness and width.]
Zhou Xu thought, glanced at the black forest in the distance.
The thickness of the trees in the black forest is completely enough. The problem now is that if you want to do this, you have to cut down the big tree first, get the trunk wood, and even consider the problem of wood division later.
To do these things, they must need a tool, that is, an axe!
Bones are not suitable for axes.
On the one hand, they could not find a suitable bone, which depends on the weapons in the hands of the tribe members. They were basically daggers and bone spears, and there was no sign of axes at all.
On the other hand, the bones they currently have are probably not as strong as those of more common stones. If they are forced to use them as an axe, the bones will most likely break during the chopping process.
Compared to the easier-to-find stone, this is definitely an unnecessary loss.
[The stone axe must be made, but even if you make a stone axe, cut down a tree, and want to dig out a wooden bowl, it feels very difficult.]
Obviously, during the careful thinking, Zhou Xu realized that according to the current situation, it would be much more difficult than he imagined to create a wooden bowl.
And if there is anything else that can be replaced...
【pottery?】
One of the important signs of his playing such games before, and his entry into the Neolithic Age was the development of pottery making.
Unfortunately, he cannot achieve this goal by clicking the mouse twice and typing the keyboard twice.
Zhou Xu had never studied pottery making at all, but he played with mud by the river when he was a child.
The pottery is burned from clay, which is close to common sense. He knows it for now. As for where to find clay...
According to the superficial experience he accumulated when he was a child playing with mud on the riverside, that is, the riverside and the riverside.
The soil in the river is soaked in the river for a long time and is subject to erosion. The texture is very delicate and sticky, making it convenient for shaping.
Of course, he couldn't make any move on this matter for the time being, so he quickly created a trap and solved the problem of food and clothing in the tribe.
After the bark rope was almost weaved, he began to teach tribe members to weave baskets with bark.
Needless to say, he just wanted to do a relatively simple basket trap. When he was a child, he mainly used this to catch birds with his playmates.
He had thought about making rope traps, but he was not familiar with this, so he had to be more skillful in weaving baskets, at least he wouldn't make any mistakes.
In this environment, he has not left much fault tolerance rate, so he is now seeking stability.
As for what bait should be placed under the cover then?
He had already planned this, and he used the heads and internal organs that he would pinch down and would use them to the fullest.
Considering the efficiency, this basket can be woven into hollows without being too dense. Anyway, the target is those mice, as long as the mice can't drill out, which will save some effort, but also some bark.
In essence, it is not a very complicated thing. In addition, the ones who are following him to weave baskets are all selected by him many times, and they are considered to be more skillful members of the tribe.
After teaching it a few times, I roughly understand it. At most, I have to give him some tips when needed.
Unlike other previous jobs, Zhou Xu's craftsmanship, even if he doesn't look at his eyes, it will not affect his hands' movements at all. It's considered that practice makes perfect.
This also gave Zhou Xu some free time and turned his attention to the system that appeared from time to time.
【If there is a system, can I open a panel or something?】
Almost as this thought flashed through, Zhou Xu only felt a flash in front of his eyes, a virtual interface jumped out of thin air.
