[Farming] Orc's Little Silver Rabbit

Shen Xi walked over and took a look. The 1-meter red oak double bed had an extremely smooth curved headboard, which was obviously very convenient to lean on, and the shape of the bed was also good.Wouldn't the bed be a little too big, though?But it must be very enjoyable to roll around, Shen Xi instantly thought of something very impure, and quickly coughed and said: "I don't really understand this, just do it if you think it's good."

"It should be your master and my master's outsider," Eli said, "This is how the father and the beast educate us."

"Uh, I also think this bed is pretty good," Shen Xi glanced at the price of the bed: 100 copper coins, and found it barely acceptable.The two picked out another small dining table and four chairs, and Shen Xi shook his head and said he didn't want to buy it.But Eli took a fancy to a set of yellow rosewood, including a large coffee table, a long and wide sofa, two wide chairs and two cabinets with drawers flush with the coffee table.This combination looks very clean and simple, but the price of 100 copper coins made Shen Xi shake his head.

While Eli says he can earn money after spending it, he doesn't want to spend all his money on it in the first place.

"It's better to use coins on the edge of the knife. Let's take care of these appearance things in the future." Shen Xi snapped his fingers and grabbed Eli, who was still going to pick things up: "Plant seeds, hoes, shovels, axes, Kitchen utensils are a lot of expenses, so let’s buy them first.” Compared with the appearance of things, he actually wants to buy some things with sustainable development, such as raising a few chickens and ducks to eat eggs and duck eggs every day. , or feed a cow to milk and drink every day.

"You can earn money after the coins are spent," Eli said firmly. "I can return to the butcher shop every day after hunting to exchange for coins. You don't have to worry about these expenses." As an orc, you should make money to support your family.

"But..." I don't want to be raised by you. As a man, I have to have the self-consciousness to make money to support my family, don't I?Shen Xi looked at Eli's natural appearance, didn't say anything, just smiled and said: "Anyway, let's buy the necessities first, and take care of the rest slowly, and the paint in our room is not dry, so don't be so anxious."

Seeing that Eli seems to have listened, Shen Xi continued: "And we can make this kind of furniture slowly in the future. Although it may be a little simpler, these styles can still be made, so why waste money on it?"

After all, he took Eli to buy kitchen utensils such as pots and pans.Kitchen supplies are the most cumbersome to get. They first went to the ironware workshop to buy iron handles, hoes, shovels, sickles and other necessities. Then Shen Xi picked a small stove at a certain stall, bought chimneys and charcoal, and went to sell porcelain I bought bowls and cups at the stall, and then looked for pots and pots everywhere. After buying these, I went to buy plant seeds, cucumbers, strawberries, potatoes, wheat... I collected a lot.

After finishing all this, it was almost noon, and Shen Xi also felt his stomach growling.At this time, the number of people in the market gradually decreased, and many stall owners were also preparing to go back.He tugged on Rilai's sleeve and said, "Let's go back." The hunger in his stomach reminded him of another thing: "By the way, I haven't bought salt, pepper, oil, etc."

"I just saw that there is a special seller of olive oil and peanut oil, come here." Eli led him to the pavement with his good memory: "There is a seasoning seller next to him."

The oil sold here is actually packed in bamboo tubes, and a large bamboo tube is used as a unit of measurement.Shen Xi bought two barrels of peanut oil, and bought salt, sugar, soy sauce, star anise, tangerine peel, pepper, etc. at the stall next door.

"Eli, is there anything else you need to buy?" Shen Xi remembered that Eli had mentioned the old mung bean cake here, so he said with a smile: "Why don't we go buy mung bean cake?"

"Well, let's go." Eli really likes pastries, so he readily agreed.

After returning, Eli caught a pheasant in the low jungle near their house.Shen Xi cooked Beggar's Chicken again, this time with seasoning, the taste was much more delicious than last time, even Eli became interested, so he ate half of it.

After eating, the two will make wooden windows and wooden doors together.Shen Xi was not good at this kind of carpentry work, so he had to help Eli on the sidelines.Seeing that Eli used his sharp nails to cut off the neat wooden windows again and again without using the wood saw next to him, Shen Xi couldn't help but asked, "Eli, does this hurt you?"

"No," Eli raised his hand to look at it, then lowered his head and continued to work: "It doesn't need to be blunt."

Shen Xi took a plane and a wooden saw to plan the wooden windows cut by Eli. At first, he had a hard time doing it, and almost cut his hand, but after finishing the two windows, the movements became more and more smooth. , and the movement is getting faster and faster.

The wood is fir from our own territory, it is easy to dry, not easy to crack, and it is very convenient to process.This kind of tree is easy to cut, the sapwood is light yellowish brown, the heartwood is light reddish brown, the grain is straight and beautiful, and it is most suitable for making doors and windows.

Eli set to work on the wooden door that opened inwards.The bearings and other tools needed to install windows and wooden doors are in the pile of materials sent by the pterosaurs.This didn't bother Eli, after several times of adjustments, the doors and windows were installed, and Shen Xi hung up the light green screens behind him, so their new home was no longer a frame. Instead, there are four spacious rooms separated from each other.

The structure of their house is very simple. The largest room in the middle is the living room, with two wooden doors that open and close inwards.On the left side of the entrance is the bedroom, and there is a door between the living room and the door on the right leading to the kitchen. To the right of the kitchen is a large empty room, which can be used as a storage room or as a guest room.

The house has just been painted and painted inside and out and smells bad.Eli walked around pinching his nose for a while, and frowned his pretty handsome eyebrows: "It seems that something is missing." They were standing on a red brick floor, and Eli lowered his head, finally realizing what was wrong: "There should be carpet under your feet."

Thinking of the exquisite and gorgeous big Persian carpet in Eli's palace, Shen Xi raised his eyebrows: "Are you sure? That thing is very troublesome to brush."

"That's true," Eli didn't give up. He didn't like this kind of red brick floor, and felt that it was dusty when he stepped on it: "But if you don't spread anything, the floor is very dirty. Maybe you can lay animal skins, and throw it away when it gets dirty." Get a new one."

"That's so troublesome." Shen Xi made a suggestion: "Maybe we can make a wooden floor, which is elegant and clean, and easy to clean, and those tall trees piled up in the yard are useless."

"Wooden floor?" Eli asked suspiciously.

"Well, it should be possible to split the tall trees into flat long strips, right?" Shen Xi thought it should be possible in theory.

"Okay, I'll chop it now." Eli is a typical action guy, and he went to chop the wood without saying a word.Shen Xi also went to help. This job was also very troublesome. The planks had to be long and straight, and they had to be planed and dried. Fortunately, they had plenty of time and were young and energetic.

"By the way, the toilet." After relieved, Shen Xi suddenly remembered this serious question.He went to the stream to wash his hands, squatted beside Eli and asked, "Eli, how do orcs build toilets?" Aren't orcs have very sensitive noses? What should we do about this problem?It can't all be solved in the wild...

"It's built on top of the sewer, and the groundwater will naturally wash it away." Eli pointed to a remote corner behind their house: "Probably build it in that direction, and build a wooden house on it."

"Sewers? The Moon Clan still has sewers?" Shen Xi was stunned, perhaps it was time for him to re-examine the orcs' architectural thinking.When he lived in Eli Palace, the toilets were flush, and he wondered why it wasn't a toilet, because there was a sewer.

"Well," Eli nodded: "Most orcs have a keen sense of smell, so of course they can only build sewers underground." He said, "After I finish cutting the boards, I will use the remaining materials to build a wooden house toilet, and then I will build a toilet." A flushing toilet."

The wooden boards are smoothed and cut to the same width as the house, and then dried in the sun. Fortunately, they are not in a hurry to move in. The newly painted house needs more ventilation and drying.And now it is warm spring, it is not cold to sleep outside.The sky is also beautiful, the sun is shining brightly these days, and there is not a drop of rain.

But the human body is more afraid of the cold after all, Shen Xi likes to turn into a little silver rabbit and sleep in Eli's big furry tail, and roll a few times in the sea of ​​fluff.When Eli saw this, he just smiled dotingly, leaned against the tree and closed his eyes to rest his mind. Sometimes he would stretch out his fingers to play with the little silver rabbit-shaped Shen Xi for a while, or gently help him sort out some messy clothes. fluff.Feeling sleepy, he hugged Shen Xi to his chest, covered it with his tail, and the two fell asleep together.

On this day, Eli and Shen Xi decided to surround their own garden with a fence like Noah and the others.Of course, this kind of wall is not used to prevent orcs, nor can it prevent beasts. It is only used to prevent small herbivorous creatures such as chickens, ducks, geese, rabbits, deer, sheep, and cattle from stepping on and gnawing on the plants.

Their territory is not small, and this is also a big project. They have to cut bamboos in the jungle not far away, and then insert them into the soil one by one, and then wrap them horizontally twice with flexible wooden strips, so that chickens and ducks Small creatures such as rabbits, deer, and sheep cannot enter.

After working for these days, Shen Xi was so tired that his whole body ached.Although everything is not in a hurry, but when I think of sitting on the steps of my own yard and watching the green wheat seedlings bear ears of wheat in the future, this anticipation makes me full of energy.
