The tribe had a good news, that is, the Yanfeng tribe. After Zhuo Hao discussed with several elders, he decided not to leave and from then on to join the Yeqiong tribe.
Since then, the Yeqiong tribe has officially accommodated the third tribe, and its population will soon exceed 2,700 people, nearly 3,000.
With the addition of fresh blood, the tribe's vitality is even stronger.
Because of the experience of the Yanghe Tribe and the Yutang Tribe in the previous period, Ye Tianlong is already very experienced in tribal reorganization.
So in less than half a day, the members of the Yanfeng tribe moved out of the simple tent.
The day after the Yanfeng tribe arrived, Ye Qiong asked Rongling to start building a wooden house.
After all, Ye Qiong still has this confidence. After this experience, Ye Qiong planned to get more reserved houses. Even if the Yanfeng tribe really wants to leave, it will not be a loss anyway. It will be left for the next one.
Just a tribe.
Although the tribesmen's work efficiency is very high, after all, the wooden houses are simple in three days, and the outline has been built. The detailed details of the Yanfeng tribe must be slowed down by the tribesmen of the Yanfeng tribe themselves.
It is built slowly, but you can decide what you want based on their own preferences or family members.
Since he expressed his ownership, the supplies and food of the Yanfeng tribe should be confiscated. Ye Tianlong specially arranged for Tang Ying to deal with this matter, and Ye Qiong was pulled over by Tang Ying.
Zhuo Yan looked at Ye Qiong and Tang Ying, and had already agreed to the relationship between the two, so he took out a list of supplies and food and handed it to Ye Qiong.
Ye Qiong handed it to Tang Ying casually. After all, he had no idea about this thing and had no interest. Now Ye Qiong tribe is fat, so the supplies and food confiscated by Yanfeng tribe are just a form of
That's it.
What Ye Qiong values most now is people.
If Ye Qiong wants to make a difference before winter comes, he must find a way to expand the population to more than 10,000 before winter comes.
Only by reaching this population base can Ye Qiong be able to quickly develop science and technology with various theoretical knowledge in his brain and put theory into practice.
The city wall on the south side is expected to be completed within half a month. With the regular mass production of giant crossbows and serial crossbows every month, Ye Qiong is not worried about monsters or madmen attacking the tribe in spring and summer.
However, just in case, Ye Qiong was still in the stone city wall and in the center of the tribe, and it was budgeted to build eight watchtowers.
It is even taller than the wooden tower built on the ice wall in winter. It is absolutely safe to combine stone and wood to ensure that the tribe members are in the center.
If one day the stone city wall outside is broken through, then the city defense construction in the central area will be the last patron saint of the tribes.
The weather has been very good these days...
Ye Qiong went to the south wall from time to time to stroll, cheering the soldiers and helping them a little help.
On the other hand, we are starting to study the steam engine.
This time, Ye Qiong waved his hand and took half of the excess iron from Yanfeng tribe to the blacksmith shop, and the other half to his own laboratory.
The bearings have been built, and there are still many things that need to be poured by Ye Qiong himself.
After all, incandescent iron can be used. He didn't know how to do these things in his heart. If there were paper money in this world, Ye Qiong could draw it. Unfortunately, papermaking has not been invented yet, and Ye Qiong has not yet
Find the right raw materials.
So Ye Qiong couldn't draw the steam engine and let others help pour it. He could only do so by himself, researching and fiddling.
What Ye Qiong wants to do now is a simpler thing, which is the base of the steam engine, that is, the chassis.
Although this thing is simple, it is quite tiring...
Coal was burning in the stove built by Ye Qiong. Tang Ying sat in front of the bellows made by Ye Qiong, twitching the bellows' lever back and forth.
With sufficient oxygen, coal burns very vigorously!
After boiling the iron, Ye Qiong poured the iron into the mold made of clay soil using the oldest pouring method.
"Sizi..."
In order to ensure safety, Ye Qiong did not mess with the iron by himself, but instead built a drainage device, which was also made of clay soil, which was very resistant to high temperatures.
The advantages of clay soil have been brought into play.
After pouring the molten iron into the mold below, wait for the molten iron to cool down naturally.
Compared to weapons, the base of this steam engine does not require too complicated technology, as long as it can be strong and durable.
Next, wait patiently for the iron to cool down, and then it will become a base that is 1.5 meters long and 80 centimeters wide.
Originally, Ye Qiong planned to use wood as the base. After testing the toughness and corrosion resistance of several types of wood, he decisively gave up.
However, you still need to make a larger wooden base and put the cast iron base on it. In this way, the steam engine will be more stable after it is running.
After all, it is a piston movement. If the base is not stable enough, even if the steam engine is pulled out by Ye Qiong, it will be shaking for a few days and will probably be ruined.
So the base is like the foundation for building a house. Within a reasonable range, the more stable the better.
I divided half of the excess iron into the Yanfeng tribe to myself, Ye Qiong now...
I made such a base.
Although I still think that even though I have to catch the steam engine construction period, it is hard for a good cook to cook without rice!
If there is no iron, there is no way to continue. Ye Qiong can only dream of finding an iron ore as soon as possible.
But then again, iron ore is much more difficult and mining than coal mines, and even if it is mined back, it still needs to be refined.
So it is very troublesome. The current iron tools on the snow star are all obtained by humans in some corners and corners for millions of years, and then gradually accumulate to the present, back and forth, repeatedly using them.
That's all.
It can barely satisfy human daily life and weapon manufacturing, as for the development of technology...
It is still necessary to fundamentally solve the problem and find large iron ore, which is the king.
At night, the molten iron was completely cooled down, and the base of the steam engine was completely completed. What made Ye Qiong more pleased was that because Xuexing's gravity was relatively high, the plane formed after the molten iron melted will not bubble or have
Waveform.
The surface is very flat, which increases a lot of stability.
Ye Qiong asked Tang Ying to help. The two of them pressed the poured base from the clay soil together, then lifted it outward, stood at the door, and continued to weather it.
The matter of the base was finally completed. It was a little late, and I could no longer see the blue mother star when I looked up. Ye Qiong looked at the base standing at the door, clapped his hands, rubbed his body a few times, and then pulled Tang Ying's
