After pulling Tang Ying out, the two rode the Snow Demon Wolf together to the snow cave where Ye Qiong specialized in conducting experiments.
Ye Qiong asked Tang Ying to call several middle-aged women in the tribe for help. These women were responsible for bringing over the fatter meat stored in the tribe, cutting off the fat parts, and putting them together.
Compared with vegetable fats, refining animal fats is much simpler. Simply boil the fat in a large pot. After the water vapor dissipates, the remaining gel-like substance will become
Solid grease similar to candles.
Making grease is not difficult, the difficulty is the wick!
How long it can burn and whether there is smoke or not depends on the quality of the wick. Ye Qiong asked a few middle-aged women to collect a lot of cotton and linen fabrics in the tribe. Animal skins would definitely not be able to be used as wicks.
To Ye Qiong's disappointment, even after searching the whole tribe, they couldn't find a few decent pieces of fabric.
Things like silk and satin cannot be produced in a short time. Ye Qiong is now forcing his tribe to jump directly from the primitive era to the steam era.
Now the entire Snow Star, if divided according to the level of civilization, is still in the primitive period. However, the slavery system did not arise, but the tribal system. People are relatively equal between people, men and women, and there is no class division for the time being.
No matter how powerful the tribe is, it will not take the initiative to exploit the small tribes, unless the small tribes themselves are picking troubles with women for resources, so if they have nothing to do, look for trouble. The tribes are all migrating and surviving on the snow star, and no one is excluded.
, no one wants to see anyone.
You live your life, and I live mine. We are all worried about the cold winter, have no time to fight, or are distracted by other things.
After the cold winter comes, unless there are any special events, there will be no contact between tribes under normal circumstances. After the cold winter has passed, all tribes are nervously collecting materials and stocking up on food, over and over again, tirelessly.
All human beings are worried about how to survive, so things like entertainment, leisure and dating are of little significance to the current human beings on Snow Planet.
Nowadays, any human being on the Snow Planet, if taken out and placed in the modern society where Ye Qiong lived in his previous life, would be an ascetic existence.
play?
nonexistent……
Since there is no such thing in the tribe, then Ye Qiong can only continue to exploit the caravan. Although the caravan now completely belongs to the tribe, because Ye Qiong retains the establishment of the caravan, they still keep their original supplies by themselves, but
Ye Qiong can now be requisitioned unconditionally.
Tang Ying ran out humming a little tune. Being able to contribute to the tribe was the happiest thing for Tang Ying so far. She was very motivated.
A lot of things were brought over from the caravan. After leafing through them, Ye Qiong selected a few that were more suitable and cut them into lines.
The only thing left is inspection, which can only be done after the grease is removed, which takes time.
After leaving all these tasks to Tang Ying and the others, Ye Qiong just started, and the subsequent development is up to them.
Days with clear weather and clear weather are good times for the development of tribes, so they should be cherished.
Nowadays, various things within the tribe are intertwined, making Ye Qiong's head a bit big. To sort out all the things now, Ye Qiong will need to spend a lot of time and energy, and it will also require a lot of manpower and material resources.
The only thing Ye Qiong is thankful for now is that the people in the tribe are very obedient. No matter what, there is absolutely no problem with their attitude.
Another advantage is that the physical fitness of the tribesmen is not bad, especially the soldiers. After a tiring day, they can sleep at night and be full of energy the next day.
This is inseparable from the dried meat of King Xiantong and various high-level monsters.
After walking out of the tribe, it was already dark. The soldiers responsible for building the city wall also stopped. Without lighting equipment, they really couldn't work at night.
It seems that this problem really needs to be solved in time. The daytime on Snow Star is only about eight hours, and the night is as long as sixteen hours.
Although there is the light of the starry sky, it is not impossible to see all the fingers in the dark night, but due to the problem of sight, the work efficiency is very low.
Ye Qiong thought of a kind of animal fat, that is, whales. In Ye Qiong's previous life, there were historical records that the longest burning thing was whale fat. Because of the pressure of the deep sea, whale fat is very dense.
Coupled with some special reasons, whale fat can burn for a very long time. In northern Europe in the Middle Ages, this kind of thing was used in everlasting lamps, and it was very expensive!
Specialized sailors will go to the depths of the sea to hunt whales and extract their fat.
Because whale fat is fluid when inside the body, but outside, it is solid at room temperature, making it very easy to store.
There must be an ocean on the Snow Star. Ye Qiong was very sure of this. After all, the corpses in the ice sculptures were all marine creatures.
Ye Qiong took advantage of the faint starlight falling from the sky and walked to the location of the city wall being built.
The city wall on this side is now one meter high, and Ye Qiong jumped directly onto it.
The stone city wall is indeed much more stable than the ice wall when you step on it. It has a very calm feeling. Ye Qiong thinks of the Great Wall he climbed in his previous life. Ye Qiong has an inexplicable feeling for the stone city wall built by his tribe.
feel.
After walking forward for a while, Ye Qiong sat directly on the city wall and patted it hard with both hands.
The entire city wall is five meters wide in total. The outer edge is 90 degrees perpendicular to the ground, while the other layer has a curvature. As you go up, the overall width becomes smaller and smaller.
In the sketch designed by Ye Qiong, the width of the top of the city wall is three meters, and the middle is sunken. Whether it is a tide of beasts or a crowd of madmen, if they attack from the front, the soldiers can defend it very well.
Ye Qiong had too many references for this kind of building. He chose a shape that could maximize the use of archers. On the side of the vertical slope, there were many hidden compartments and hollow square holes for storing things.
Bows and arrows can be shot out from underneath, and if cannons are invented in the future, the blast holes can be inserted directly into these holes.
The task of building the city wall has always been the responsibility of Ye Qiong's second uncle, Ye Tianling. So far, Ye Qiong is very satisfied. The foundation is very stable and can easily withstand snowstorms below Level 3.
Those ice sculpture corpses will not cause much damage if they hit the city wall.
Sitting cross-legged on the city wall, Ye Qiong's lonely figure has become a very unique scenery here.
No one knew what Ye Qiong was thinking, but they just looked over from a distance and saw the young man on the ice wall, staring at the night sky in a daze.
It was as if there was something in the distant stars that fascinated him.
