Chapter 50
In addition, it is best to complete the houses before spring, so that you can start farming after spring.
Although a group of women are busy spinning and weaving on the mountain almost every day, they are always paying attention to the changes in the Shanxia Kiln Factory.
Especially a group of men responsible for kiln factories and building houses. Seeing this strange-style stone house built day by day, under Xu Chen's command, slowly installing beams, doors and windows, building a bed frame and fire pit, and then covering the house with thatch and leaves. Finally, it turned into a row of neat stone houses that had never been seen before. I was even more excited. Every day when I returned to the cave, I would discuss this matter with pride. My mother and a group of women would go down the mountain every now and then to see the progress.
Therefore, as these houses were gradually completed, the tribesmen became more and more excited.
This kind of house has square and flat ground, not only doors and windows, but also a roof that protects the wind and rain.
According to Xu Chen's arrangement, each house can sleep four people, and it is even more spacious and comfortable than the stone grass nest in the cave.
Therefore, on the day the house was built, a group of men couldn't wait to move in, and even almost started fighting because there was not enough room.
Don’t worry about lack of weight but not unevenness.
This group of primitive people have always lived a harmonious and loving collective family life. Women are responsible for collecting and caring for women, children, elderly and weak, and men are responsible for hunting and obtaining meat and animal skins and maintaining tribal safety.
Everyone is busy and struggling to meet the most basic survival needs. Because of the extremely scarcity of resources, all food and clothing can only be distributed evenly according to group needs, and there is no problem of eating more and occupying more.
But now it is different. Food and clothing are becoming more and more abundant. After the basic needs are met, higher quality needs begin to appear.
Houses like this at the foot of the mountain are sturdy and novel, and have ventilated windows and comfortable sleeping. Everyone wants to live in.
But it is obvious that the houses are not enough, so a group of people responsible for building the kiln factory think that these houses were built by themselves and that they should live in them.
Feng and a group of hunters believed that they had to go out early and go back and forth to hunt every day. It was most convenient to live at the foot of the mountain, so they should let themselves live first.
So the tribe's group conflict first appeared, and it was tense and fierce.
Fighting among tribesmen is definitely not allowed.
Mother Ba severely criticized the two groups of men and stopped the conflict.
But this emotion was suppressed on the surface, but in fact the contradiction was resolved without it.
Xu Chen understood even more that as the tribe continues to develop, there will be more and more conflicts.
Although they are simple by nature, fighting is not just about occupying these houses, and the starting point may be for the survival and development of the tribe.
But human sociality and complexity have long surpassed all animal groups.
Groundhogs still have to compete for a good position even when digging holes.
When penguins build nests, they also have to steal the beautiful stones from their companions’ nests.
As high-level intelligent creatures, humans cannot have no selfish intentions.
This selfishness will eventually gradually evolve into a conflict of interest, and eventually promote the slowly disintegration of this primitive communist tribal system.
To resolve the current contradiction, the only way is to build more houses and re-satisfie the conditions for equal distribution.
In fact, Xu Chen had already anticipated this situation since the beginning of repairing a house at the foot of the mountain.
In fact, the situation was almost exactly the same as he expected.
This contradiction is actually what he wants to see.
As the leader of the tribe, Muba is an equality maintained by blood ties and relies on the dignity of parents.
But if the tribe wants to truly grow and grow, only by constantly expanding and obtaining more population and resources can human beings truly gain a foothold in this wilderness and primitive era.
The Ba people are too small to support his plan, or ambition.
With a small population and few resources, the ability to resist danger is very weak.
According to the simple information he has obtained slowly in the past two months, if he wants to truly stabilize his position, he must at least take all five nearby tribes.
But now it's still hard to catch.
At least we must first solve the problem of adequate food and clothing and safe survival of the entire tribe. When men do not need to hunt to maintain their livelihoods, they can truly form stable combat power and have the conditions for external expansion. Otherwise, if the war is not over, the entire tribe will starve to death.
A new house completion ceremony that should have been celebrated by the family, but ended due to the unhappy struggle of a group of men.
Mother Ba was very angry.
The men were also dissatisfied.
Women don't know how to comfort them.
The children are still heartless and only know how to chase and fight in the new house.
Ye stood behind Xu Chen, holding his clothes tightly with his hands, with a hint of hope and expectation on his cheeks, and at the same time, he felt unconcealed loss.
It would be great if this kind of beautiful and private little house could be lived here with Chen.
Unfortunately, the men's territory is the foot of the mountain.
For safety, Moba will not allow women and minors to live at the foot of the mountain.
"Chenga, repair...fangga!"
Feng was depressed that he had not obtained the right to live in a new house and strode to Xu Chen to express his request.
"Teach a ga!"
A group of hunters, led by the wind, immediately surrounded them and responded.
Even many women began to get ready to move. Although they did not dare to express themselves blatantly, their eyes were also warm.
Although everyone is used to living in the cave on the mountainside, it is too different from the stone houses in front of you with doors and windows.
Especially in winter, the cave is as cold as an ice cave. It is true that summer is cool, but winter is even cooler.
Although Xu Chen suddenly had a whim this year, he used stones and mud to build a wall at the entrance of the cave, which had a certain effect of sheltering from wind and rain, so many people were crowded in a narrow cave, and they would look dark at any time when they entered, which was far less neat and comfortable than the small house in front of him.
