Elven settlers

Chapter 198 Preparations before leaving
Time passed quickly in the busy work, and after another five days, Rock finally completed the wood collection work.

He not only felled all the spruce and red pine for building the main body of the house, but also reserved some additional wood of other tree species.

Different tree species also vary in wood characteristics and wood grain color. They may not be as good as spruce and red pine in house construction, but they will perform better in other uses.

For example, oak is more suitable as a floor material because of its hard and waterproof properties; and ash can be used to make cabinet furniture or other work tools because of its beautiful patterns and good crack resistance.

In the future, Rock's land reclamation and construction will inevitably use wood, and early preparations will not delay the progress of the work. After all, if wood is to be used for a long time, it needs to be processed in advance.

In addition, the texture of the wood itself is a wonderful art of nature. Rock likes this kind of pattern full of natural beauty. Using different wood grains in the room can also beautify the indoor environment.

Looking at all kinds of wood piled up under the oak forest, Rock felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart.

There are now a total of 310 five spruces and one hundred and five red pine trees. After these woods have been peeled and cleaned, each one still has a diameter of one meter and a length of more than 25 meters.

These logs are stacked into four huge wooden piles with a length of 25 meters, a width of 20 meters and a height of [-] meters, just like four trapezoidal hills.

With so much wood, Rock is more than enough to build a palace.

Abe blamed them for having some velvet sheep and deruby, who were climbing up and down the wooden stacks to play, and this became their latest playground.

Between the four huge wooden stacks, there are also some small wooden stacks stacked scatteredly. These are other trees that Rock has collected in recent days.

For the wood of these other tree species, Rock also chose large trees that had grown for dozens or hundreds of years, so the size of each log was also very tall and strong.

"These timber reserves should be enough for next year, haha, another job done!"

After checking his own wood again, Rock stretched a big lazy waist, feeling that he finally relaxed.

During this period of time, he has been constantly cutting and transporting wood. Rao is in good health, but the repetitive and high-intensity physical work still makes him feel a little tired.

Not only Roque, but also his elves are also working hard.

Whether it is Arbor, Geranium and Black Luga, or wooly sheep, they all put in a lot of labor in the work of logging and collecting wood.

Except Chenglong.

"Boom~"

Standing on the top of the tall wooden pile, Chenglong shouted cheerfully to Rock below, then jumped down and smashed into his arms heavily.

"Hey!"

Rock snorted, opened his arms to catch Chenglong who hit his chest, then embraced Chenglong's body with his hands, and raised it to his eyes.

"Boom~"

Chenglong, who had just completed an exciting "gliding", happily flapped its fins in Rock's hands, and opened its mouth to spit out a cloud of crystal clear ice mist.

"Haha, you little guy is getting heavier and heavier, and it won't be able to hold you any bigger."

Rock rubbed Chenglong's head with the tip of his nose, then held it with both hands and weighed it.

If there is any elf in Rock's territory who is the most leisurely, it is Chenglong in his hand.

When Rock and the elves are working hard to collect wood, the newborn Chenglong only needs to do three things every day, that is, eat, sleep, and play.

So it grows very fast, and it has doubled in size in only six days after it was born.

From the size of one palm to the size of two palms.

Stable two agaric fruits every day, plus ample supply of various meats, and a lot of activities on land and in rivers at the same time.This makes Chenglong grow very vigorously every day, and Rock feels heavy in his hands.

But Chenglong didn't make any contributions. Since taking it fishing for the first time five days ago, Chenglong, who has eaten fish, seems to have awakened his natural instinct.

Every day, I catch a few fish Pokémon together with Geranium and the others, which enriches everyone's daily dishes.

However, these fish were all caught by the cooperation of Chenglong, Geranium, Arbor, and Heluga. Rock didn't try fishing again these days.

According to him, this fishing rod limited his performance, and he waited until he had money to buy a good fishing rod before making a move. Now it is enough to point out Chenglong and them.

Chenglong has indeed grown rapidly in terms of fishing, but I don't know if it is really the reason for Rock's guidance.

In the beginning, when riding a dragon, the geranium was tied with a rattan whip as a safety rope, but later it was no longer needed.Every time they jump directly into the water, and after a while, fish will jump out of the water chasing the dragon, and finally, under the attack of Geranium, Arbor or Heruga, they become Rock and the others. A dish on the table.

"Boom~"

Chenglong bit Rock's finger lightly, signaling him to put himself down quickly, and he still wanted to watch and play with his friends.

"Haha, let's go!"

Rock let go of his hand, and Chenglong jumped directly from his hand.

The distance of more than one meter high has no effect on Chenglong. After jumping to the ground, it spreads its four fins and runs quickly to the Abo monsters on the wooden pile.

Looking at the back of Chenglong bouncing around, Rock raised the corners of his mouth and turned back to the camp.

After finishing the work of collecting wood, he planned to take advantage of this time to give himself and the elves a good rest.

He happened to be going to Sunshine Town to replenish supplies, so he could give the woolly sheep a vacation, and Roque could bring his elves to play in Sunshine Town for a few days.

He plans to leave early tomorrow morning, so now he has to do some pre-departure preparations.

Rock set up a bonfire, set up a cooking pot on the fire, and filled a pot full of clean river water.

While waiting for the water to boil, he found a few stainless steel airtight cans from his toolbox.

These airtight cans were bought by Rock when he went to Sunshine Town last time. Each can has a capacity of five liters.

His big needle bees have evolved for more than a month, and it's time to harvest honey.

This time, it is just right to put the honey in a sealed jar and bring it to Sunshine Town to sell.

Rock took out four jars, and after the water boiled, he put all the jars into the cooking pot, and then continued to maintain the temperature of the flame, and boiled the four stainless steel sealed jars in boiling water for a quarter of an hour.

This is done to sterilize the jar so that the honey kept inside does not spoil.

In fact, these airtight cans are new and clean in themselves.And now that he can ride the geranium on his way, Roque's speed from the territory to Sunshine Town is very fast, and the quality of the honey will not be affected at all.

Cooking to sterilize it is just for safety, and it is also Rock's self-request.

　good evening!
