Magician's Live Stocking Daily [Infinite]
Chapter 193: Building a Stone House
As long as there is enough labor, building a stone house is actually not difficult.
Jesse used a thick branch to draw the approximate construction range on the ground. Six square stone houses were arranged in a circle, with a circular open space in the middle, which could be used as a place for collective activities such as cooking.
After the sketch is completed and confirmed by Li Yang, construction can officially begin.
The strong young men of the tribe dug trenches along the edges of the houses and then piled up stones layer by layer in the middle.
Slowly, a not very tall stone house...
Wait – they don’t use adhesive?
The stones are heavy and solid, but the surface is uneven and can easily collapse. How can a body survive a sudden fall of a stone wall?
"Ouch—"
Just as Li Yang was thinking about it, she heard a scream from the side.
The busy people immediately stopped what they were doing and came over to inquire about the situation.
"A boulder just rolled down and hit your foot." Someone explained nearby.
Sure enough.
The injured person was a young man with an impatient personality. In his eagerness to show off and move into the new house as soon as possible, he did not bother to place the stone carefully. He just threw it up and quickly let go.
Fortunately, everyone's progress was not very fast, and he had just reached the second layer, so the force of the stone rolling down was not very great.
Even so, a large lump had formed on his foot. His expression looked grim, with beads of sweat on his forehead due to the pain.
Wu examined him carefully and concluded that this impatient young man might not be able to move freely for some time.
Labor Force - 1
Morale -
Li Yang, who had watched the whole process, decided to be the caring goddess again.
She walked slowly forward and tapped her wand. Golden light wrapped around her swollen and bleeding feet. The scars quickly faded visibly. The man's expression changed from pain to surprise, and his faith value soared rapidly.
Labor (Injured Version) → Labor (Pious and Faithful Version)
Seeing that they were about to kneel down and call the goddess again, Li Yang quickly stepped back, pointed to the stone house where the first floor had just been built, and asked:
"Do you know why the stone fell?"
The primitive man was obviously stumped.
"Because it can't be fixed?" Jesse guessed something.
Li Yang gave him a look that said, "So you knew that too?"
The descendant of the dwarf scratched his head awkwardly, then bowed apologetically: "Dwarves only live underground and are not good at building things above the ground. Please forgive me, goddess."
It's not a big problem. People are not encyclopedias, so it's normal to have areas that you don't understand or are not good at.
She walked around the stone mountain and stopped in front of a small pile of white stones. Then she squatted down, patted these unique stones, and ordered:
"Use fire to burn them to powder."
Ying Yi, who had been following beside him, quickly did as he was told.
This stone has a scientific name, called limestone, and after burning it becomes the famous lime. Mix the newly obtained lime with soil, sand, etc., and then add water to stir it into a paste, and wild concrete is made.
This type of concrete is sticky and easy to shape. It is mixed between different stones and becomes hard after it dries.
In this way, stability is guaranteed and there is no need to worry about air leakage due to gaps between the stones.
Building the house is back on track.
Having learned a lesson from what just happened, the people in the tribe, no matter how quick-tempered or slow-tempered they were, dared not deal with it casually.
With everyone's concerted efforts, the first stone house was finally completed in about half a day.
This is the largest room, built specifically for witches.
Then it will be the turn of other people in the tribe.
Li Yang was too lazy to watch them repeat the same work. After throwing down some pancakes, she planned to call the kids home for lunch.
Xinyu and Xixi were both sent to the mountains to play. Xinyu would sometimes go with Jiang Xun, while Xixi would usually run around by herself, but would come back soon.
The planting team is still exploring and farming. When they have free time, they will go to the bamboo forest and swamp next door to cut some bamboo and cattail reeds to weave baskets, straw mats, etc.
Of course, they are also responsible for the top of the stone house.
Before leaving, she was worried that there might not be enough limestone, so she patiently reminded him: "If this type of stone is not common, shells can be used as a substitute."
Anyway, the principle is the same.
It doesn’t matter if you are uneducated, as long as you are willing to learn.
↑The goddess who studies the various books brought back from the previous planes every night thinks so.
After lunch, it was already 15:00 in the afternoon when the lunch break ended.
Li Yang, who originally planned to practice magic, changed her mind and decided to go to the beach first.
Go see the salt pan she had just finished working on at noon.
I was able to confirm that the salt fields were completed because I heard the system announcement while having lunch:
"Congratulations to player Li Yang for making a qualified salt pan. Your island's prosperity is +3, and the current prosperity is 41."
In fact, the fishery team had already dug the hole during the daily work report the night before, and these days they have been mainly polishing the details and manually diverting water.
The salt fields are located at the junction of the coastline and the hills, where the terrain is relatively low, there is plenty of sunshine, and the flow of sea breeze is not affected by the mountains.
If the weather remains good, the coarse salt can be precipitated in as little as a week.
As the sun sets, the orange-red afterglow of the sunset shines on the clear sea, and red and blue form a sharp dividing line in the distance.
Li Yang stood on the shore, feeling the evening breeze and watching the breeze blowing across the square salt fields. She couldn't help but open her arms.
Look! This is the world of this goddess!
Now that the salt fields are completed, the remaining tasks will be much easier. We only need to check them regularly to prevent the embankments from being eroded by sea water and wind and causing sea water overflow.
After the inspection, Mr. Li was very satisfied with these three employees.
Start with a shovel and you can build a salt field at will.
She decided to give them shovels as rewards, along with some fishing knowledge and equipment, and then let them go about their business.
When you come to my island, not a single meal is eaten in vain.
Today's dinner was actually quite good: there was grilled fish, boiled shellfish and bamboo shoot soup, and after the meal everyone was given a banana and an apple.
My diet has been relatively light recently.
Because the weather is so hot, the highest temperature today is as high as 38 degrees Celsius.
When the weather gets hot, the demand for water and salt increases.
Fortunately, the fishing team is good at fishing, and the fruits in the orchards and forests are beginning to ripen, providing everyone with much-needed water and other supplies.
Jiang Xun would pay special attention to these ingredients when she went to collect rubber every day, and carry some back in a basket at night. She was the most hardworking and capable elder sister in the tribe.
