Wooden Wind began to tinker with his own calendar.

The system recommends the Chinese Lunar Calendar, which has 365 days in a year, 12 months, and 24 solar terms, which can guide the people sowing and harvesting well.

It can better distinguish the solar terms of the four seasons.

Calculating days and the twenty-four solar terms are relatively simple and easy to understand.

The problem is that the real time of a year is more than 360 days and five hours, and there is a leap every four years-not counting the leap year, there is also a leap month!

The leap month algorithm of the Chinese lunar calendar is one leap every three years, two leaps every five years, and seven leaps every nineteen years.

But which month to add is determined according to the rules of the lunar calendar. The usual algorithm is to count a month with only one solar term as a leap month to make up for the algorithm of two solar terms in January.

The nineteenth year of the lunar calendar is a cycle corresponding to the same time in the Gregorian calendar.

However, the advantage of the lunar calendar is that it can guide the farming time according to the solar terms, but the Gregorian calendar is very lacking in this respect.

Figured out the algorithm of the calendar.

In addition to getting a set of calendars, Mu Feng also exchanged a set of methods for making sundials with the system. The production is not particularly complicated, but it is made by using the principle of the linear propagation of light.

The calculation method includes the length and direction of the shadow.

However, the length of the shadow is too precise, involving specific numerical calculations, and the requirements are too high, so the position of the shadow is generally used for calculation.

However, this thing has relatively large limitations and can only be used when there is sunshine on sunny days.

It doesn't work at night or on rainy days.

So when necessary, you have to cooperate with the hourglass-the water clock to calculate the time.

But so far, these big gingers are not needed for the time being. He only needs to tell his tribe the algorithm of the calendar, and then ask them to calculate according to the calendar.

Anyway, Da Jiang has a pen and paper now, and he also has other recording methods, which don't have to be as primitive as the knotting notes in history.

He himself compared the explanations in the system, first confirmed the calendar and copied it on paper, and then asked people to call back several "vital officials" in the tribe of Da Jiang and all the people from the Blue Bird Department, and gathered them in the In a classroom, they began to explain the use of the calendar.

In a classroom, Da Jiang's people include Da Huyou, Li Hu, Huang Lei, Chang Shui, Bai Ya, Ji Hua, Qi Ge and others.

The members of the Blue Bird Department are Changning, Zhaolu, Aguli and Azig.

The one who listened most seriously was naturally Chang Ning.

Because when Mu Feng introduced the lunar calendar, he said: "This is a complete calendar, with 365 days in a year, and sometimes 366 days.

A year is divided into twelve months, and each month is long or short.

There are twenty-four solar terms in a year, and there are six solar terms in each season of spring, summer, autumn and winter...

The solar terms in spring are Lichun, Rain, Waking of Insects, Vernal Equinox, Qingming, and Grain Rain.

The solar terms in summer are Lixia, Xiaoman, Eargrain, Summer Solstice, Slight Heat, and Great Heat.

The solar terms in autumn are Liqiu, Chushu, Bailu, Autumnal Equinox, Cold Dew, and Frost's Descent.

The solar terms in winter are Lidong, Light Snow, Heavy Snow, Winter Solstice, Minor Cold, Great Cold...

Through these twenty-four solar terms, you can tell when to do what and how the weather will change. Especially my big ginger needs to grow corn, wheat, soybeans, sorghum and other crops, and it needs to be planted according to the guidelines of the twenty-four solar terms...

Among these solar terms, there are several big festivals that you should also remember.

During these festivals, all the cities and clansmen of my big ginger can celebrate for one day, and some festivals will last for two or three days!
Even in the future, my ginger will be stronger and I can celebrate more days!

These festivals are the Spring Festival, which falls on the first day of the new year every year, that is, the first day of January.

Lantern Festival, January 15th.

Mid-Autumn Festival, August 15th.

Laba Festival, the eighth day of December.

Xiaonian, December 24th.

New Year's Eve, December 30th..."

As for the festivals, Mu Feng only chose the most suitable festivals for the current season, and he did not use other festivals such as the Dragon Boat Festival and the Double Ninth Festival that were not available for the time being.

Otherwise, how about just a Dragon Boat Festival?

What's the matter with primitive people commemorating a future master Qu?

There is also the day of Xiaonian. In some places in the previous life, it was counted to the day of twenty-three.

But his hometown is the generation in northern Jiangsu and northern Anhui, and his young age is twenty-four, so he "selfishly" chose twenty-four for a while.

And the twenty-fourth day of the lunar calendar is also "no taboo" for doing everything on the calendar-there is no better day for doing things than this day.

This is also one of the reasons why he set Xiaonian at twenty-four.

Everyone was stupefied at the beginning, but after Mu Feng talked dryly for a long time, everyone's eyes lit up.

Everyone reacted differently.

Li Hu and Huang Lei looked shocked, and they looked at each other, thinking of what Mu Feng said that crops can be planted according to the solar terms, they clenched their fists excitedly.

Bai Fang and Jihua were thoughtful, thinking of many problems that troubled them.

Chang Ning's eyes were sharp, and his face was flushed.

In her opinion, Mu Feng found a solution so quickly for what he had promised her, and it was obvious that he was extremely concerned about the two of them.

She waited for Mu Feng to finish, and asked first: "According to what you said, the vernal equinox should be before the New Year's Eve and the end of the year, but the beginning of spring is before the year. Doesn't that mean that our marriage is after the year?"

Everyone subconsciously looked at Chang Ning.

Da Huyou smiled all over his face.

Everyone in the Blue Bird Department sighed.

Especially Aguli shook his head helplessly.

A thought popped up in my heart, and it was also a helpless sentence from my great chief: "Girls are extroverted..."

Mu Feng knew what Chang Ning was thinking, touched his forehead, held back his smile, nodded and said: "Well, according to what Uncle Li Hu said, I should have brought me back to the tribe when the Sophora japonica flowers were blooming, and if I counted forward, I should It is the time when the peach blossoms bloom.

The peach blossoms are after the Jingzhe and before the vernal equinox. "

Chang Ning blurted out: "Then we will be in Jingzhe!"

Mu Feng was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that he knew Chang Ning's intentions. In front of the room full of Jiang and Qingniao, he smiled and nodded: "Okay, just be happy!"
