The success of papermaking shocked and delighted the whole tribe.
After such a long period of basic education, everyone is very aware of the significance and far-reaching impact of paper.
When the papermaking group was first established, everyone already thought that they were doing something very sacred.
The books in the reading room are regarded as the most sacred items by everyone.
While everyone was scrambling to read, they were also very cautious, for fear that their own strength would destroy the fragile books.
Therefore, some fighters who think they are relatively reckless only dare to stand behind other people to cooperate with each other, and dare not touch them.
But at the same time, it is very troublesome, especially when there is not much literacy at the beginning, it greatly affects the efficiency.
Everyone will consciously wash their hands clean before turning the pages of the book, for fear of getting dirty.
There are also some people who will take back some paper and pens, and only start after copying.
But those papers are not only rare, but will disappear in the future, making everyone still feel uneasy.
So even if no one asks, they will memorize these contents by rote first.
But after all, there are too many books. It is very difficult to memorize their knowledge by rote at present, and it is very difficult to pass it on.
Now it's different, they have paper! The paper made by their tribe will not be taken back by the gods!
As long as their tribe exists, they can create a steady stream of paper to record their civilization and their history.
Even if they die and disappear, they can still leave their stories, knowing that such a person once existed.
The pen, ink and pen used for writing have been developed and produced before paper was made.
Yang Yi entrusted Han Bing, who likes to paint, to take charge of this work. He is very interested and talented in this field.
At the beginning, he made charcoal pencils, which were made of crushed charcoal powder and clay pressed in a certain proportion.
Although it is still a lot worse than the pencil lead made of graphite on the earth, it can still be used for writing, and it is very convenient to carry.
It can be used for temporary recording, return to a convenient place, and then use more stable ink to transcribe.
Charcoal pens are only for the convenience of beginners and those who often go out to record, and cannot be used as the main way to record text, because it is too easy to be wiped off.
After it was made, Yang Yi asked Han Bing to start making ink.
At night, tung oil lamps are used in most parts of the tribe.
Now there is enough tung oil in the tribe. The collection team searched all the tung trees before, and the tung oil fruits have accumulated in a large area, like a mountain.
Moreover, the oil-extracting team has now also sent additional manpower, and the daily oil output is very impressive.
Therefore, everyone in the tribe can own a tung oil lamp, as long as they apply for it themselves, they can get it.
The only requirement is safety issues. Once anyone accidentally causes a fire, he will be punished not to own it for a certain period of time, and food will be deducted, and benefits will be arranged later.
Safety is definitely the top priority. Yang Yi is very strict about this management. We must let everyone have this awareness from the beginning, so as to avoid more and more things appearing in the future and lead to adverse consequences.
Especially fire, which would be devastating, and even on the present earth, with all kinds of advanced equipment, it is often difficult to control.
Fortunately, these people used to live in the forest and knew the power of fire very well.
Most people are still very careful, and there have been accidents, but they were quickly extinguished without causing too much impact.
Otherwise, they are all thatched cottages now, and they will be contiguous once they are burned.
However, that person was still punished, and before the cartoon was shown, he was pulled in front of everyone to criticize and let him review in public.
Although these careless primitive people don't quite understand what it means to lose face, they still feel that this is not a good thing.
Yang Yi also considered this issue when the new residence was being built.
Each building requires a certain distance from other buildings, and there are fire-fighting equipment nearby.
The floor is not high, and everyone here can jump off the building and be safe and sound, so there will be safe passages but there is no need to set up too many.
When making the tung oil lamp, Yang Yi put a lot of thought into it.
First, it is not easy to overturn and cause a fire, and second, it can burn oil to get smoke.
Ink is a combination of carbon black and glue, and tung oil fumes can obtain carbon black.
Although it is difficult to obtain enough carbon black for the entire tribe to write for daily lighting, it is still necessary to burn oil to get smoke. But this is killing two birds with one stone, so why not do it.
As for the solidified glue, it is made from cowhide and other animal skins, and fish skin can also make very good glue, and relatively speaking, cowhide and other animal skins are more versatile than fish skin, so if fish skin is more economy.
This is also one of the important reasons why Yang Yi is eager to raise fish. It can not only enrich everyone's dining table, but also use its various parts to make other things.
The ratio of smoke glue has been a secret method that has not been passed on since ancient times. The ratio will also be adjusted according to the climate and other differences, and directly determines the quality of the ink.
When it comes to the feeding step, medicinal materials will be added in addition to the solidified glue.
Yang Yi doesn't need such extravagance at present, it will be relatively simple.
These specific technical operations, including the subsequent beating, molding, etc., Yang Yi handed over to Han Bing to study and experiment.
Han Bing is very interested in these things, and he is more literate and capable than ordinary people, so he can study on his own based on books without Yang Yi's guidance.
It doesn't take too much energy to let Yang Yi let go.
After Han Bing developed ink with strong stability, smooth writing and fast drying, which met the writing standards, Yang Yi also started the establishment of the ink making workshop.
At that time, papermaking had just started, and it happened to be able to be carried out simultaneously.
When actually starting to make a large amount of ink, it is necessary to build a special kiln so that more carbon black can be obtained. Pine wood is used to produce pine smoke ink.
Pine wood is one of their common fuels, so it is not difficult to obtain.
"You must remember to drain the pine resin now, and then cut it down, otherwise, the ink produced will have dross, which is not easy to write."
This was Yang Yi's only exhortation, and all other matters were left to Han Bing.
As Yang Yi's assistant, Han Bing is also one of the earliest and most educated group of people. Compared with ordinary people, Han Bing is better at self-study.
If a problem is found, Han Bing can make corrections and make up for it based on the books and materials. Yang Yi does not need to check the materials, and then teach them a second time.
Yang Yi himself often learns and sells now, without in-depth research.
He has too many things to consider, so he has a superficial understanding of many things, which also leads to the fact that he can only teach the simplest and basic things when teaching, and the finished products are often rough.
If you want to make a better one, you can only study it slowly by yourself, which becomes very difficult for people with insufficient literacy, and the efficiency will be much lower.
This made Yang Yi more determined that he must cultivate more talents.
"Envoy, this is the latest ink, do you want to try it?"
The joy on Han Bing's face couldn't be hidden, it could be seen that he was very satisfied with the results this time.
Yang Yi is also a person who has studied ink to a certain extent. He has seen a lot of materials and videos about ink making in the past, but it is far worse than Hanbing.
Yang Yi can only be regarded as a life player, while Han Bing is going to go professional.
Han Bing now talks about making ink, and it can be said that he is very thorough, even more professional than Yang Yi.
As soon as he mentioned these things, Han Bing's whole person became different, with fanaticism in his eyes.
"it is good."
If Yang Yi didn't try this ink now, he might not be able to sleep all night.
As soon as Han Bing heard this, he immediately rubbed the ink for him with a new ink ingot, while Yang Yi picked up the writing brush made from the tail hair of a weasel on the table, which is also the legendary wolf hair, and wrote with some ink on the white paper spread out on the table .
Yang Yi learned calligraphy from his grandfather when he was a child, and his calligraphy is pretty good. He wrote the couplets at home during the New Year and holidays.
A big character "Fu" landed on the paper, powerful and neat.
"It is indeed a great improvement compared to before." Yang Yi praised, "The writing is smoother. The ink still has a kind of astringency last time, and the color is not as pure as it is now."
Han Bing's chest stood tall, very proud of herself.
"This kind of ink is less likely to fade than before. You must pay attention when writing. Once it is stained, it will be difficult to wash off."
Yang Yi tried to write with a quill again, and found that it was also very smooth.
Although the brush is good and can show the beauty of Chinese characters to the greatest extent, it is not friendly enough for some beginners, so Yang Yi made another quill.
What he is holding now is the feather of the King Goose, which is exceptionally good at writing, and it is much higher than other animal quills.
It can absorb a lot of ink with just a little click, and you can write a lot of characters before you need to continue to absorb ink.
The feathers of other geese did not have such an effect. Now Yang Yi asked the people in the farm to keep an eye on the goose king all the time. Once it dropped a feather, it would be picked up immediately, and it must not be wasted.
The goose king also knows that its feathers are very useful, and now it is even more arrogant.
Flying to Yang Yi's place a few days ago, he snatched away the paper written with its feathers.
Yang Yi asked Han Bing to draw the Goose King with his quill pen and sent it over. Now the painting is hung in the most conspicuous place of the farm.
According to the people at the farm, the goose king not only goes to the picture every day to see his heroic appearance, but also leads a group of his men to look at his portrait.
Every time I catch a beast that wants to steal, I will bring them to the picture, and the whole goose is more arrogant than before.
However, apart from the fact that he always likes people to look at its portraits, he has no other troubles, and on the contrary, he is even more heroic.
Xiaobai was frustrated for many days because it was too small and the feather could not be used for writing.
I don't know if it's Yang Yi's illusion, but I found that it has obviously grown up a lot in the past few days.
Can it grow with a single stimulus
Yang Yi felt that Xiaobai might be even more miraculous than Goose King.
"What is the production efficiency of this ink? Can you maintain the quality while ensuring the output?"
Speaking of this, Han Bing is even more proud.
"Compared to the previous efficiency, the efficiency has increased by 80%, and I believe it can be improved in the future. The process has been split by me, and many people who don't understand the process at all can also join in the production."
Yang Yi nodded: "This level is enough for current use, so we will use this as the standard for mass production, and we must ensure that everyone can have enough ink for writing."
They don’t need to worry about inkstones, they just use suitable stones to make them.
Not so long ago they were in the stone age and were no strangers to this work.
"Yes." Han Bing hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Envoy, I think I can make better ink."
Yang Yi said with a smile: "I thought you should be very clear about my attitude."
He never hinders excellence and encourages it very much, as long as the current basic supply can be guaranteed.
Han Bing also laughed, "I will definitely not delay the work here!"
The success of papermaking has made the ink making workshop more busy, making preparations for the real eradication of blindness for the whole people.
"Envoy of God, I have already found a time and decided to hold the celebration in five days. The wind and the sun are the most suitable day, what do you think?" Jiao asked.
At the same time that the paper was being made, the new temple was fully erected, and other houses were being tiled overnight, working overtime.
A large number of laborers have been transferred to Shangwa, trying to allow more people to move in after the celebration.
Not only that, a large wave of fruit vegetables and root plants in the field also began to mature one after another, and the tribe really entered the first bumper harvest.
Now the whole field can really be called fruitful. Yang Yi's favorite place to go now is the field. Seeing that the fields beyond the horizon are full of ripe fruits and vegetables, there is an indescribable feeling The sense of happiness makes people can't help but want to sing.
According to Qing's current statistics, this batch of melons, fruits, vegetables, rice, wheat and other grains can completely feed the entire tribe for a whole year.
And now that summer has just entered, they still have time to plant the second batch, which means that their warehouses can be filled with grain this year.
What pleased Yang Yi the most was that all the crops they planted survived and grew fruit smoothly.
There are also those fruit trees, although they are still only saplings, according to Qing's speculation, not only can they survive, but the results are also fine.
Many plants are typically not suitable for the climate here, and they are produced in different places on the earth.
But they all grew smoothly, and they didn't need a special greenhouse or other cultivation, which surprised Yang Yi very much.
He feels that this is the greatest gift this world has given him.
Think about picking apples and cherries here, and mangoes and durians over there, what a joyful life this would be!
Although the fruit trees still have at least several years to bear fruit, Yang Yi can already feel the joy of that time.
Now the large tracts of fruits and vegetables in the field are enough to make Yang Yi feel extremely excited, and he sleeps with a smile every night.
Strolling into the fields every day, picking a tomato here and a strawberry there, walking around makes my stomach round.
For tomatoes alone, Yang Yi has planted many varieties, the big ones can be as big as a child's head, and the small ones are cherry tomatoes. There are also various colors, such as traditional red and yellow.
Strings hung on the vines, full of them, if not for the support of the erected shelves, they would have completely fallen to the ground.
There are also fruits such as watermelon, cantaloupe, cantaloupe, etc., which will gradually ripen in the near future. Yang Yi saw that the field was full of all kinds of melons, and he almost wanted to lie in it and not come out!
There are also corn, loofah, pumpkin, wax gourd, okra, pepper, etc. All the fields are covered by these fruits.
Wheat and rice also have heavy spikes, and they are full, and they will have a bumper harvest in the near future. At that time, there is no need to worry about not having staple food.
There are also underground fruits, sweet potatoes, potatoes, and peanuts, which have also begun to enter the harvest stage. If they are not waiting for the temple to be built and celebrated, many of the early-maturing batches can already be picked.
This piece of land is amazing, especially able to satisfy a person's yearning for pastoral life.
It is not affected by the geographical climate and can grow all the things you want to grow. Just looking at it is a great satisfaction.
Not only Yang Yi, but everyone in the tribe saw that these melons and fruits began to bear fruit one after another, and when they grew up a little bit, everyone walked with a wave.
No matter how many times everyone passes by, they will sigh: "This is a miracle!"
The eyes of the helpers of the Green Python tribe were all green, and they had no other thoughts except envy.
Now no one thinks that they are digging pits indiscriminately, looking for trouble. There are indeed a lot of fruits in the jungle for them to pick, but how can it be so spectacular? !
These plants are growing neatly in rows, without weeds, thorns, or lurking beasts and poisonous snakes.
They grow in patches and look so attractive that one can't help but want to hug them.
"Our tribe must be very beautiful now."
The people of the Green Python tribe also remembered that although their tribe did not grow vegetables and fruits, they planted a lot of flowers that Yang Yi gave them.
The flowers of the Xinghuo Tribe are also growing now. Although they are not as many as vegetables and fruits, they are still growing in patches, and they are very beautiful.
All kinds of flowers decorate the whole tribe very beautifully, but the impact of melons and fruits is too great, so that everyone slightly ignores the beauty it brings.
Now many of them have been transplanted to the new residential area, making the whole residential area come alive.
There are also lotus seeds that were planted before, and now they have bloomed lotus flowers, one by one, which is extremely beautiful.
Many people who love beauty even pick them specially to decorate themselves or their houses.
Almost every girl in the tribe wears one or a few beautiful flowers on her head, or a garland made of flowers on her head, etc. Some men who love beauty also decorate themselves with flowers.
The men and women in the tribe now have to clean themselves almost every day, and they all regard neatness as beauty, which makes everyone more beautiful.
Because of their racial advantages, this group of people has a very high overall appearance. Now they dress up a little bit, and they are all beautiful and generous.
Especially now that I eat well, sleep soundly, don't have to worry about being scared, and I am immersed in joy and happiness every day, which makes everyone more beautiful from the inside out.
Yang Yi felt that walking on the road and seeing them was a kind of enjoyment.
Such a result has led to a great increase in the pregnancy rate in the tribe recently, which is a very gratifying thing.
If the tribe wants to develop in the long run, reproduction is a big deal.
The Green Python Tribe planted much more flowers than the Spark Tribe, except for the batch of seeds that Yang Yi brought over earlier, and later sent people over to exchange them.
There are not many flower seeds left in Yang Yi's space now, and most of them were taken away by the Green Python tribe.
Yang Yi didn't buy too many flower seeds in the first place, but there are many types, which add up to more.
If it weren't for the cutting and planting, the Xinghuo Tribe wouldn't have so many flowers.
The Green Python tribe is so beautiful. After the first flower was planted, they started planting like crazy. Now I am afraid that they are all overwhelmed by flowers.
The topic is far away, Yang Yi has no objection to the time of the celebration, he believes in Jiao's judgment.
Jiao now has an apprentice, Qing Tian, who can sense the weather, and her prediction ability is more accurate than the weather forecast.
Although it can only predict the weather within five days, the accuracy is very high, and the specific rain time within two days can be accurate to the minute.
Sunny is a very pretty teenage girl, one of the survivors rescued by the Tusk Tribe.
She had suffered humiliating treatment, and watched her twin brother being eaten, which caused her a great physical and mental blow.
She is more timid than ordinary people. When she first came to the tribe, she was like a frightened little rabbit, always shivering unconsciously when she saw tall people.
Seeing that she was pitiful, Jiao put her by his side and asked her to help her do things without having to contact too many people.
Qingtian adapted little by little and fell in love with the Xinghuo Tribe, and her natural ability was gradually revealed.
This has brought great convenience to the tribe, since the vegetables began to mature gradually, especially the harvest of peppers, which need to be dried in the sun.
Now the drizzly rainy season has passed, but it often rains suddenly, which is very troublesome for the drying work.
With sunny days, this problem is solved, and it also makes it easier for various departments, especially those who go out, to arrange work, which is of great help to farming.
"This celebration must be very spectacular." Thinking of that scene, Yang Yi couldn't help but smile.
Now everyone has not formally picked melons and fruits, but just picked some early-ripening ones to taste the taste a little bit.
Although everyone is very greedy, they all insist on waiting until the temple is completed before officially entering the harvest season.
During the celebration, all kinds of melons and fruits will be picked and displayed one by one in the large square in front of the new temple.
The large square of the temple is larger than a football field, which not only enhances the majesty of the temple, but also can be used for gatherings and as a drying ground.
The high temple also has a platform, which can stand on it and overlook the audience.
Black Hunter said: "In addition to the Green Python tribe, there will be visits from other tribes in this celebration."
This news came from the Green Python tribe before, and the demise of the Fang tribe let everyone know that there is such a tribe.
The rise of a powerful tribe always draws people's attention.
The Tusk Tribe has been around for so many years, and it was wiped out like this, so that everyone dare not underestimate the Spark Tribe.
The appearance of black pottery made everyone more interested in this tribe.
It is really shocking to be able to produce pottery that is even better than the pottery brought by the Western Continent Caravan!
Therefore, for this celebration, some tribes with a relatively short distance wanted to come and find out.
"I don't know how many people from the tribe will come this time." Yang Yi rubbed his chin.
Black Hunter narrowed his eyes slightly: "The Western Continent caravan will definitely come, as long as there is excitement, they will appear as soon as possible."
Yang Yi is also wary of the Western Continent caravan. While they bring business opportunities, they also bring crises.
"Jiao, you arrange the accommodation. While making them feel at home, you can't let them go where they shouldn't go or do things they shouldn't do."
Their tribe is still developing and is still not strong enough, so they will not spread some technical things to the outside world.
Yang Yi is generous but also very stingy, it is impossible to hand over his technology.
It can be said that any item in the tribe now is the credit of everyone. It is only after careful research that the current results have been achieved. It took a lot of hard work, time and physical strength, and it cannot be completed simply by relying on the knowledge brought by Yang Yi. of.
Theory and practice are different, not to mention that many things here are different from the earth. The knowledge brought by Yang Yi is a guide. To make it successful, everyone still needs to use their brains.
No matter from which point of view, Yang Yi couldn't do that.
"God rest assured, I will arrange everything."
Black Hunter also spoke: "During the celebration, members of the hunting team will not go out, and they will be temporarily organized as guards to ensure the safety of the tribe."
"Let them all replace with the weapons we made ourselves." Yang Yi paused, "I remember that is enough now?"
Hei Lie's expression was full of embarrassment: "Enough, although the quality still doesn't satisfy me, it's enough to shock everyone."
