The daily life of a tribal leader

"That... leader is like this..."

Bai Ke went through the matter in his mind, and then began to narrate.

"Last time, you didn't say that you would set aside part of the land outside the city as farmland and wait until spring to open up wasteland."

So, Bai Ke told the teachers of the agricultural and animal husbandry team about this.

The teachers were very happy about this and asked Lin Mo to take them on a field trip. Overall I am satisfied and the soil is fertile.

But it feels sad to waste this good land there because of the cold and snowy season.

They also take the tribe's daily consumption into consideration, and are worried that the inventory will not be able to carry it.

"So the teachers considered the feasibility of building a greenhouse. This was the first experimental greenhouse built by the teachers. Yellow mud was mixed with hay and pressed into earth walls. Perfume bamboo film was attached to the bamboo frame as the roof. Bamboo film is still light-transmissive, which is suitable for the growth of shade-loving plants. In order to keep warm, the outside of the bamboo film shed will be covered with a curtain of cotton reed rods coated with yellow mud. There is also a fire channel inside the greenhouse, which can be used to burn fire and heat it. "

It looks like this greenhouse is turning out great! The rubber vines are so big that they look like they are showing their teeth and claws.

"What's going on with this rubber vine? Doesn't it stop producing as soon as it enters the cold and snow season?"

Lin Yun is still interested in this. Now the greenhouse is not light-transmissive, so food cannot be grown.

"This relies on the research of Teacher Lin. Teacher Lin has studied the growth habits and characteristics of the rubber vine. The rubber vine likes shade, so it can grow in this room. It likes temperature and cannot stand low temperatures, otherwise it will hibernate. It needs to be produced when producing glue. It absorbs a lot of water and nutrients, so it needs to be watered with nutrient solution.”

"So is this all nutrient solution?"

Only then did Lin Yun understand why there was still a jade bamboo standing in the middle of the greenhouse, and why the rubber vine was planted so high.

"Yes, Teacher Lin grew the rubber vine using hydroponic methods. The first layer of the jade bamboo is nutrient soil prepared with bone meal, which is used to fix the plant. The bamboo joints below are all opened, and a large amount of mats are poured in. The teacher prepared the plant nutrient solution. This glue vine can grow so strong."

"Thank you all. If you take the tribe into your heart, the tribe will definitely take you into its heart."

Lin Yun was very moved. He realized very early on that the development of the tribe could not be achieved in the long term just by relying on him and his brother alone. Only when everyone in the tribe takes the tribe at heart and everyone's strength is gathered together can they move forward bravely and not be afraid of wind and rain.

"Chief, don't be too moved, we haven't shown our true power yet!"

When Teacher Lin and the others saw Lin Yun's excitement, everyone felt warm in their hearts. They were right, Lin Yun was indeed a responsible leader.

"Yes, Xiaobai, show our treasure to the leader."

Teacher Lin handed a bucket of glue to Bai Ke, winked at Bai Ke, and asked her to take the leader alone to see their new research results. They won't bother them anymore.

"Come on, chief, I'll show you something good."

Bai Ke was carrying the barrel and leading the way.

What is it, mysterious?

Lin Yun followed Bai Ke out with full of curiosity.

The outside of the second greenhouse is the same as the first one, but the inside is different. It feels like a studio.

Against the wall are rows of wooden boxes, and inside the wooden boxes are seedlings of rubber vines.

"Chief, come and take a look at this."

Bai Ke came to the big table in the middle, put down the barrel, and pointed to the things on the table.

"Is this plastic or glass?"

Lin Yun was shocked. Did he miss something? When did the tribe have such a thing? No one reported it!

"Well, it's very similar to plastic PC endurance board."

Bai Ke handed the transparent plate to Lin Yun.

Very light, very thin, and very flexible.

Lin Yun took the board, held both ends and bent them toward the opposite sides, and they touched together easily.

"Tell me quickly, what is this made of?"

"Teacher Lin, don't they want to build a greenhouse? After searching the entire tribe, they found two materials. The bamboo film is translucent and has poor light transmittance. There are too few crystals and they are not available locally."

That is, crystals are exchanged with other tribes. The quantity is limited and they are used in various aspects. They cannot be used to build greenhouses.

"So Teacher Lin turned his attention to the glue of the cane. The glue is transparent after drying and is not afraid of water or fire. If the glue can be made into a board, the material for the greenhouse will be available. So, in the greenhouse in front, Everyone is very happy to see the glue production of Jiaoteng.”

Bai Ke explained to Lin Yun the reason why the teacher and the others were excited. They are so old and have never seen any big storms. I wouldn’t be so excited if I just planted a plant.

"really?"

After hearing what Bai Ke said, Lin Yun was extremely excited.

With this kind of board, a greenhouse can be built and planted during the cold and snowy season. Can cotton reeds also be planted?

"Sister Bai Ke, it's like this..."

Lin Yun told the reason why he came here today.

"That's right. Why didn't Aunt Xiuyu tell me about it when I went to buy cotton cloth last time? In this way, I can ask the teacher for advice."

Bai Ke didn't expect that the cotton reeds in stock were in a hurry.

"You have really helped the tribe a lot this time. First show me how this plastic board is made."

Lin Yun's anxiety before arriving was half relieved. As long as the seedlings of these glue vines grow up and produce a steady stream of glue, you can build many greenhouses and grow whatever you want.

"It's okay, leader, it's actually very simple."

Bai Ke took out a 50x70 wooden frame from the table. One side of the wooden frame is empty, and the other side is covered with bamboo film.

Scoop out a ladle of transparent glue from the wooden bucket, pour it into the wooden frame, and stop when the liquid covers a black line inside the wooden frame.

The glue will solidify quickly when exposed to sunlight. The sunlight in the greenhouse is relatively weak, and only one layer of glue solidifies on the surface.

Bai Ke poured another liquid into the wooden frame.

"what is this?"

curious baby Lin Yun asked.

"This is ordinary Liangbaikai. The glue is not soluble in water, and the weight of the water will flatten the glue and compress it. After a few hours, the glue will become solid and become a board. Pour away the water and apply the bamboo film The oil will not stick to the glue, so you can tear it off directly. Then use a knife to cut the wooden frame. (Unscientific principle)"

Bai Ke patiently told Lin Yun the process of making the boards.

"Very good. The production process is not difficult and can be produced in large quantities. This is the source of this glue..."

Lin Yun loves and hates the seedlings on the shelf. Why are they so big? How long does it take for them to produce glue?

"Chief, don't worry. As long as the nutrition keeps up, the rubber vine will grow quickly. The one in the greenhouse was also grown by Teacher Lin and the others. It only took three days!"

Bai Ke was not stupid, so he could not guess what Lin Yun was thinking.

"I see there are a lot of glue barrels in the greenhouse, and I have harvested a lot. I will have people make glue boards. All you have to do is provide the raw materials."
