The first thing the Zhouxujiao tribe members did was to rub bark ropes.

This is not difficult. Basically, as long as you study it carefully, you can master it quickly.

However, based on the speed of control, he can roughly judge which ones are better at doing this kind of manual work.

"Okay, you guys go help pick up branches and tear off the bark."

Through this method of observation, Zhou Xu directly replaced the tribe members who were not very good at doing this.

After all, in addition to doing handicrafts, there are quite a lot of things to do within their tribe.

For example, on duty, picking up branches, tearing bark, watching fire, etc.

Let’s not talk about the work of guarding and watching the fire.

At this time, their demand for branches is still very high.

Not only to tear off the bark, but more importantly, if they want to obtain more abundant fresh water resources and keep the fire burning, they must continuously input wood as burning material.

Under this premise, the temperature here will definitely drop after nightfall.

In fact, at this moment, he already felt a little cold.

And there were almost thirty of them. One fire pit was not enough. At least two were needed.

When you successfully light a fire, this is a trivial matter.

After roughly teaching them how to twist bark ropes, Zhou Xu took some time off and used the stones they found to build a stone stove on the other side of the tribe, and lit a fire for the tribe members.

Warming.

Unfortunately, there is currently only one Nutshell Pot, and a suitable bone plate cannot be found. Otherwise, Zhou Xu would not mind building another 'fresh water extraction device' so that they can obtain fresh water more efficiently.

.

At the same time, this incident also made him aware of another problem.

[With so many mouths open, every time you want to get fresh water, you can’t just rely on fresh water, right?]

[If you can’t get two sets of equipment to increase the extraction speed, you can only rely on storing more, which means you need containers.]

Thinking of this, Zhou Xu glanced at the nutshell bowls again.

The quantity and capacity are limited, and considering what will happen next, it is simply not enough.

[I have to think of something as a container. I don’t know if I can dig out a wooden bowl with the bone dagger, but before that, I have to find wood with enough thickness and width. 】

While Zhou Xu was thinking, he glanced at the dark forest in the distance.

The thickness of the trees in the black forest is completely sufficient. The problem now is that if he wants to do this, he must first cut down the big tree and obtain the main trunk wood, and even then he must consider the problem of wood division.

To do these things, they must need a tool, and that is an ax!

Bones are not suitable for making axes.

On the one hand, they couldn't find bones of the right shape. Just look at the weapons in the hands of the tribe members. They were basically daggers and bone spears, with no axes at all.

On the other hand, the bones they currently have may not be as strong as the more common stones. If they are forced to be used as axes, the bones will most likely break during the chopping process.

Compared to stones that are easier to find, this is definitely an unnecessary loss.

[You must make a stone axe, but even if you make a stone axe, chop down a tree, and dig out a wooden bowl, it still feels very laborious.]

Obviously, in the process of thinking carefully, Zhou Xu had realized that according to the current situation, it would be more difficult to make a wooden bowl than he imagined.

As for whether there are any other alternatives...

【pottery?】

He used to play this kind of game, and one of the important signs of entering the Neolithic Age was the development of pottery.

Unfortunately, right now he cannot achieve this goal by clicking the mouse twice and typing the keyboard twice.

Zhou Xu had never studied pottery at all, but he had played with mud by the river when he was a child.

Pottery is made of clay. This is close to common sense. He still knows it. As for where to find the clay...

According to the rough experience he accumulated from playing in the mud by the river when he was a child, that is the riverside and the river.

Because the soil in the river has been soaked in the river water for a long time and endured erosion, its texture is very fine and sticky, making it easy to shape.

Of course, he couldn't spare any time to deal with this matter for the time being, so it was obviously more important to quickly make a trap and solve the tribe's food and clothing problem.

After the bark rope was almost ready, he began to teach the tribe members to weave baskets from bark.

Needless to say, he just wants to make a relatively simple basket trap. When he was a child, he and his playmates mainly used this to catch birds.

He has also thought about making rope traps, but he is not familiar with this. He is more comfortable in weaving baskets, at least there will be no mistakes.

In this environment, there is not much room for error left for him, so he seeks stability now.

As for what to put under the cover as bait?

He had planned this a long time ago, so he would use the heads and internal organs of the insects that he had pinched off and not eaten, so that he could make the best use of them.

Considering efficiency, this basket can be made hollow, and it doesn't need to be too dense. Anyway, the target is the mice, as long as the mice can't get out, this will not only save some time, but also save some bark.

In essence, it is not a very complicated thing. In addition, the people weaving baskets with him now are all selected by him many times, and they are considered to be the more ingenious members of the tribe.

After teaching it a few times, I basically understood it, and at most I only needed a little guidance from him when needed.

Different from other previous jobs, in this craft work, after Zhou Xu got into the state, even if he didn't look, it would not affect the movements of his hands at all. Practice makes perfect.

This also gave Zhou Xu finally some free time and turned his attention to the system that appeared from time to time.

[If there is a system, can I open a panel or something? 】

Almost at the same time as this thought flashed across his mind, Zhou Xu felt a blur in front of his eyes, and a virtual interface jumped out of thin air.

Name: Zhou Xu

Sex: Male

Age:22

Race: Human race

Status: Hungry

Mantra: Eye of Insight

Talent: Evolutionary Leader: Survival of the fittest and survival of the fittest are the eternal laws of this world. Only through continuous evolution can we stand in the torrent of civilization! Lead your people to complete the great evolution!

Brave:★★☆

Intelligence:★★☆☆

Spirit:★★★☆☆

Stamina:★★☆☆

Command:★☆☆☆☆

People under his command: 31 people

Territory under his command: Salt Lake Tribe

Looking at his attribute panel, as a modern person who has played a lot of games, Zhou Xu can basically understand the star rating.

If his judgment is correct, the filled physical stars should represent the strength of his current attributes, while the empty stars should represent the upper limit of future growth.

Let's not talk about other attributes. After all, he still has a little bit of knowledge about himself, but the five-star command limit really surprised him.

【Did you never expect that I have such hidden talents? 】
