I am the chief of a primitive tribe
Chapter 143
After cutting enough straw, Mufeng asked people to dig some yellow clay.
Of course, in the process, Mufeng also taught the tribesmen how to recognize yellow clay, water celery and other useful things for the tribe.
This surprised the teenagers who were out of the tribe for the first time. They didn't expect that following the chief was not just about hunting, but also about knowing a lot of useful things.
Mufeng's explanation made them feel that there seemed to be a lot of things to eat and a lot of things to use in the wild.
After the yellow clay was dug, Mufeng asked the teenagers to carry these things back.
Of course, in order to set an example, he also carried a large bundle of straw.
There were a dozen wolves guarding nearby, so they didn't encounter any accidents.
This surprised the teenagers even more, because these wolves really guarded near them to protect them.
Correspondingly, they "worshipped" their chief even more, and looked at Mufeng with fanaticism.
On the way back, Mufeng specifically asked Mingguang to take them a little further away, after all, they still had to hunt some prey back.
Because Hanshu was not there and Mingguang could not afford the three-piece bow, Mufeng had to "bite the bullet" again and performed. He took out the three-piece bow from behind, picked up the bow and shot an arrow, and shot down a horned deer that was grazing grass, which again attracted a burst of exclamations.
As Mufeng shot the arrow, the wolf pack also quickly moved out.
The hunting team of more than 30 people, plus ten wolves, made hunting extremely simple.
People shot arrows to scare the horned deer, and the wolf pack was responsible for rushing to the front and caught more than ten horned deer in a short time.
According to the agreement, Mufeng gave the wolf pack five deer, and the remaining few were taken back to the tribe by them.
This trip was smooth sailing, so smooth that all the teenagers felt that they were not satisfied and wanted to go out with Mufeng again.
First, they were protected by the wolf pack when they followed Mufeng, and second, they felt that they had not encountered anything more exciting.
In fact, if there was no Mufeng, or the wolf pack, their trip might not have been so smooth.
This was a bit unexpected for Mufeng, as he had intended to let these young men experience some "storms".
"It seems that this strategy is a bit wrong. Next time, we can't take so many hunting team members out, or let the wolf pack hide in the dark and take action at the critical moment?"
Mufeng sighed, it seems that there is still a long way to go to educate children and educate the tribesmen.
"This matter needs to be considered in the long run." Mufeng thought, "How to educate children and how to encourage childbirth should be put on the agenda. We need to find something for these idle people to do!"
"But for now, we still have to solve the most practical problem - making straw raincoats and bamboo hats."
The straw raincoats have been cut, and he even asked people to move a few tufts of straw raincoats and plant them in the tribe together with the plantain and perilla found this time.
But the newly cut straw raincoats cannot be used directly to weave straw raincoats.
First, the straw is still green and has not been dehydrated. If it is really woven into a straw raincoat, it will be very heavy. It will shrink greatly when exposed to the sun and cannot be used.
Second, fresh straw is very "brittle", easy to break, and cannot be used for too long.
Therefore, the best straw for making straw raincoats is in autumn, when it matures naturally, the leaves are dehydrated and yellowed, becoming flexible and light, and the straw raincoats made can be used for a long time.
But now it is spring, and Mu Feng can't wait until then, so he has to think of another way to make the straw raincoat dehydrated and tough as soon as possible.
This method is also very simple - steaming straw!
As the name suggests, it is to put the straw raincoat on a large pottery jar filled with water to evaporate the water and accelerate the process of dehydration and toughening of the straw raincoat.
This method is also learned from the ancients' practice of steaming bamboo arrows.
When the straw raincoat is steamed, it will be easy to deal with. Put it in a cool and ventilated place to dry naturally and use it directly.
This matter was very simple. He directly found Bai Ya and asked her to take the straw and steam it on the pottery jar.
Bai Ya was confused and didn't understand what Mu Feng was going to do.
Mu Feng explained: "After you steam the straw, you can dehydrate it. After it is dried, you can use it to make a straw raincoat to keep out the rain."
"Sweet raincoat, keep out the rain?" It was the first time that Bai Ya heard this word.
"Well, it means wearing it on your body, so that the rain can't fall on you. In this way, you won't get wet, and naturally you won't get sick from the rain!"
Bai Ya was moved: "Is it so useful?"
Mu Feng nodded: "Well, you don't have to pour out the water from steaming straw, just put it directly into the bathtub and give the tribesmen a bath!"
"Bathing with straw water?"
"Yes!" Mu Feng said with a smile, "Sweet straw itself can be used to treat colds. Bathing with its water can prevent and prevent the tribesmen from getting sick!"
Bai Ya's eyes lit up and narrowed into crescents: "I know, then I will go over to steam straw now!"
"Okay!" Mu Feng nodded.
The processing of the straw has been arranged, and the next step is to weave the bamboo hat.
Weaving a bamboo hat is a complex craft, and at least two layers of rough materials are required to sandwich a layer of bamboo leaves in the middle.
After Mu Feng exchanged the method from the system, he fiddled with it for a long time before he figured it out. The specific method is:
First, use four bamboo pieces to weave the top of the hat with the rough material of the lower layer. The bamboo pieces of the top of the hat should be staggered and finally bent to form a top.
Of course, water should be added to the bamboo pieces continuously during the weaving process to maintain the toughness of the bamboo pieces. Make sure that the bamboo pieces will not be broken.
However, Mu Feng used black bamboo, which is much tougher than any kind of bamboo he had seen in his previous life, so he doesn't need to worry about this link.
The top of the hat is done After that, it was relatively simple. It was fixed to a head-sized mold to make the hat body.
There were more than 80 bamboo pieces used for the hat body, and this was just the rough blank!
The most difficult part was the part from the top of the hat to the brim, and the hollowed-out part had to be neat. The time spent on just weaving the rough blank was equivalent to a day's work of a master craftsman in the previous life!
Fortunately, Mu Feng was willing to spend his achievement points. He directly spent 100 achievement points to exchange for the weaving method in the system, and even exchanged the "bundling" proficiency, which directly shortened the time by half!
What made him speechless was that he spent half a day to only make a rough blank of a bamboo hat!
A small bamboo hat is both mentally and physically demanding!
