Pokemon Settler
Chapter 420 Wooden Board Processing
Rock is not a person who sits still, so when he realized that the eight bean pigeons he had high hopes for might have new twists and turns in their evolution, he subconsciously thought about a solution.
He actually thought of a way, which was to stop providing nutrients to the armored pupae after each battle, so that they would stop evolving because their energy could not be replenished.
However, this idea lasted in Rock's mind for a short moment before he gave up immediately.
This approach is tantamount to consuming the lives of the armored pupae, just to allow the bean pigeons to evolve a period of time in advance. Rock really couldn't use it and didn't bother to use such cruel methods.
This is not an overflow of his Holy Mother's heart, but just the principles he adheres to.
If the Doudou Pigeons need to eat some insect elves, or they hunt them with their own abilities, then Rock is happy to see this happen.
But if he wanted to kill weak insect elves just to give experience to the Doudou pigeons, Rock would never do that.
You stupid pigeons, if you can't evolve before winter, I will roast and eat you all!
Rock spoke harsh words to the eight bean pigeons who returned to their nest, and then, regardless of whether they could understand them or not, he threw a three-pound piece of bread and some vegetables to them and went to make dinner. .
Life has to go on no matter what, so he is not too anxious. At worst, the Doudou pigeons will evolve a few days later.
In the next two days, apart from daily work on the ranch, Rock spent the rest of his time and energy on preparations for planting in the greenhouse.
The drainage channels on the greenhouse floor have all been laid, and the entire distribution is exactly as planned before, with no mistakes.
The shell ash used in the construction process has all dried and solidified. Rock has also tested it and found that the water storage and drainage functions can be used normally, and it is also very convenient to maintain.
Next, the planting box can be installed on the water channel. The wood of the planting box has been opened and processed accordingly in the past two days.
The plank he chose was pond cedar. This kind of wood had accumulated a lot when digging the lake some time ago. It was piled together with some miscellaneous trees in an oak forest. That forest is now also the place where the armored pupae are placed.
Because these pond fir trees are piled roughly, without any drying treatment, and they have not been left for a long time after being cut, there is still a lot of moisture in the wood.
What Roque wants to do is a formal planting box that can be used for a long time, not the temporary wooden box he used in the vegetable garden before. Such wood with high moisture content obviously cannot be used.
Therefore, before opening the wooden planks, Rock peeled off the bark of the pond cedar to be used and let the Heilugas dry it for a day and a half. Then he and Geranium cut the dried wooden planks into seven centimeters thick. fir planks.
The advantage of using fire elves to dry wood is that the drying temperature can be adjusted at any time, which can minimize the cracking of wood caused by rapid loss of moisture and maintain the integrity of the wood.
After Roque and Geranium deliberately cut the boards, the resulting fir boards were all high-quality boards with almost no cracks.
However, such fir boards can only be said to have initially become wood, but they cannot be directly used to make planting boxes. Because the planting box is bound to be in a humid environment for a long time, these fir boards need further waterproofing and anti-corrosion treatment.
The method chosen by Roque is still the Shao Shi board, which is the surface carbonization treatment method.
The main force of the work is still the Heiluga. In fact, Rock's Heiluga can complete this work alone. The reason why his tribe is also involved is because Rock wants to take advantage of this opportunity. Let other Heilugas also practice their flame control abilities, and at the same time accumulate some experience in carbonizing wood.
He will build a house in the spring of next year. His house will not be a small house like it is now. By then, his Heiluga alone will not be able to complete all the carbonization work, and other Heilugas will also have to do it. To join the project.
In this way, by accumulating experience and technology earlier now, it will take less time and the quality will be better guaranteed.
So even though the Heilugas occasionally broke a few pieces during the process of carbonizing the cedar boards, Rock still continued to leave the work to them.
This time, he carbonized the wood board a little deeper, and after burning, the color of the entire board turned pure black.
At this time, Rock was holding a wire brush and cleaning away all the ash and impurities on the surface of the carbonized wooden board.
After cleaning the fir board, a layer of wood wax oil must be applied to the surface with a soft brush to complete the entire treatment process.
The wood wax oil will moisten the inside of the wood, making the isolation effect between the board and the outside world more dense and comprehensive, which can greatly improve the durability of the board.
Originally, wood wax oil is a relatively expensive wood coating, and Rock wants to make a lot of planting boxes, so there are a lot of fir boards that need to be processed.
But luckily, wood wax oil, whose main ingredient is palm oil, is a specialty of Sunshine Town. Because of the geographical environment of Sunshine Town, there are many palm trees growing there.
Therefore, thanks to this, the price of the wood wax oil Rock purchased from Sunshine Town was extremely cheap, almost the same as the cost price.
After being carefully processed by first carbonizing and then applying wood wax oil, these cedar boards all turned into a shiny black color, even with a little tan color. Instead of looking dirty after being burned, they looked much more oily. , you can also see the texture of part of the wood, and the appearance instantly becomes high-end.
There is absolutely no problem in using the fir board treated in this way for more than five years. Even if something happens at that time, just follow the same method to make and replace a new planting box.
Okay, this is the last plank, let's call it a day.
After Luo Ke painted the last piece of wood wax oil on the wooden board, he put away the brush, straightened up and turned his aching lower back.
With two days being limited, he could build the drainage channels of the greenhouse and also process all the panels for making greenhouse boxes. There was only so much he could do.
Rock was going to leave the rest of the formal work of making planting boxes, filling soil, planting vegetables, fruits and herbs to be completed by Junsha Yami and her.
It just so happened that Junsha Yami was about to arrive, so Rock hurried back to the camp to make dinner.
It’s finally a holiday
