He hoped to establish a civilization.
Indeed, a civilization is now beginning to sprout.
This winter, most of the primitives they encounter will live much better than in previous years.
Ma Lin found a suitable place to help the people of the Reed Tribe build houses.
Made of stone.
Winter is unsuitable for construction, so they all start working from noon and stop by dusk.
The stone houses are also very warm.
Construction became much easier after acquiring iron tools.
Ma Lin recalled how difficult it was to build a house in Stone Creek Village before, where digging a trench for the foundation could exhaust a person.
Now with shovels, they can swiftly dig a trench.
There's a stony area nearby, making obtaining stones easy.
Their campsite has a ground fire trench, with stones and mud piled above it and fire underneath. The smoke is channeled outside the tent, making it warm and clean.
They live comfortably, with plenty of food and no shortage of clothing.
