Beginning Backpack [Farming]

The construction of the city wall was in full swing. Due to the shortage of stone materials, the consumption rate of cement could not keep up with the production rate for a while, and more and more cement was piled up. Shen Huaijin was inevitably moved when he saw it.He had long planned to build a bright and atmospheric brick house, but due to the lack of a large amount of adhesives, the construction was delayed, and now it happened to be complete.

However, brick and tile houses focus on bricks and tiles. If you want to build them, you have to prepare them first.

There are brick kilns on the base, but for the tribe, building a house is an option after the city wall.Due to the current shortage of manpower, even if Shen Huaijin wanted to build early and enjoy early, he was too embarrassed to ask the orcs for help, so he and Li's house was prepared by himself.

The same batch of bricks must have a fixed shape, so Shen Huaijin first took clay and squeezed out a mud mold. The inner length of the mud mold is 24 cm, the width is 12 cm, and the height is 6 cm. The pressed brick mud will have the same specifications.

After the clay molds were dried, they were fired in pottery kilns. In order not to waste fuel, Shen Huaijin fired a few more pottery pots to replace pottery that had been worn out for a long time.

The water level of the stream dropped, and the bank of the stream dried up. Shen Huaijin knocked the clay down from above, put it into the pit used for pottery making, and poured the stream water to soak the soil.

He scoured out pebbles and rotten grass stalks, and firmed the clay down with his feet.

The evenly trampled clay was transported by him to the work shed, and Shen Huaijin moved a flat stone slab to the side.

He was not afraid of getting dirty, so he sat down on the ground, first sprinkled a layer of dry soil on the stone slab to prevent sticking, then took an appropriate amount of clay, and kneaded it with the pottery powder that had been crushed in advance.

When the kneading was almost done, Shen Huaijin picked up the clay mold on the side, first soaked it with plant ash water to facilitate demoulding, then pressed the clay into the clay mold, smoothed the overflowing part and put it aside, waiting for the next time access.

Clay filled the inside of the clay mold. At this time, the clay mold was lifted two or three centimeters high, and with a slight shake, the complete bricks fell on the stone slab. Shen Huaijin neatly arranged the bricks of the same size in the work shed, waiting for them to dry. Dry.

There is enough space in the shed to accommodate not many adobes at one time, but now that the weather is hot, the adobes are prone to cracking under the direct sun, so he can only settle for the second best and take his time.

After a little shaping, the adobe can be placed upright, which not only allows it to dry faster, but also saves some space.

After drying to half-dry, Shen Huaijin built the adobes around the fire pit and ignited the fire to dry them, so as to ensure that the adobes were completely dry.

Taking advantage of this time, Shen Huaijin built a brick kiln, but this time he built it directly with dried bricks. He didn't need to wait for the clay kiln to take shape. He just needed to fill the gaps with bricks, which was convenient and fast.

There is a burner under the brick kiln, the top is hollow, and the inside is about half a meter long, wide and high. It can burn about four 50 yuan bricks at a time.

Shen Huaijin placed the bricks vertically and crossed them in the kiln, leaving gaps between the bricks for the flame to pass through.

Licked by the tongue of fire, the adobe was burned until it was red hot. After two hours, Shen Huaijin covered the kiln to keep the heat.

Burning bricks is not like firing pottery. Shen Huaijin does not intend to let it cool slowly, but directly pours a lot of cold water from the top of the brick kiln. After a series of chemical reactions, the red bricks will turn blue-gray.

The sound of knocking the bricks out of the kiln is clear and not dull. The internal structure of this kind of blue brick is much tighter than that of red brick, which can withstand strong pressure and is not easy to break, which can reduce the possibility of repairing in the future.

At that time, the same method will be used to burn tiles, so that a very beautiful blue brick and black tile house will be built.

Within a day, Shen Huaijin only burned one kiln of bricks, and they were neatly piled up in the corner of the shed.On the contrary, he was crawling and rolling in the mud, only to realize that he was in a mess after he realized it.

Fortunately, it is hot today, and the frequency of bathing of the sub-beasts has also increased. Shen Huaijin took a change of clothes and washed fruit, and followed everyone to the upper reaches of the stream as he wished.

In the hot season of Linshanyuan, the daytime is astonishingly hot, but at night, there is a breeze carrying the fragrance of flowers, blowing away the dryness and heat on the body.

Ling and Ji also went into the water, and the cubs here have seen the wind, and now they have the physique of a two- or three-year-old child in Shen Huaijin's impression, and they can also walk by themselves.

The two cubs were held in their arms by their Apa, playing with the water with their little hands and feet.

The spiritual milk called him childishly, "Jin! Jin! Baabaa! Take a bath!"

After getting along for a long time, Shen Huaijin naturally understood Ling's meaning. He rubbed the cub's wet brown hair and said in a warm voice, "Baabaa can't come to take a bath. Its hair is wet and it is difficult to dry. It will get sick after the evening wind blows."

Ling looked up at him intently as he spoke, his dark blue eyes filled with many stars.

"What, sick?"

"I'm sick..." Shen Huaijin's tone was very drawn out, and when he spoke, he seemed gentle and irritating, "Illness means that you don't feel well. When you don't eat well, you don't sleep well, you will feel very depressed. Oops."

"Ling and Baa-baa can't get sick."

"kindness!"

The little boy clenched his fists and nodded seriously.

In the cool evening breeze, Shen Huaijin's voice sounded soft yet clear, making people intoxicated. For a moment, everyone moved closer to him.

A young little Asian beast couldn't help but coquettishly said: "Jin, your voice is really nice, tell us a story."

"Okay." Shen Huaijin smiled slightly, and Night Breeze carried his voice far, far.

Everyone put their arms on the soft grass and listened to him quietly.The spirit relaxed, and the exhaustion all over the body disappeared. Many sub-beasts couldn't help but fell asleep later, and were finally woken up one by one.Shen Huaijin was afraid that they would catch a cold, so she told them to dry off and go home.

Seeing that the sleepy Asian beasts had all returned home, Shen Huaijin walked back in peace.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Li aggrieved lying on the table and looking at him.

"Jin, why did you take so long to wash?"

Shen Huaijin put the washing basin by the door, and walked into the room, "After teasing you for a while, I told you some stories, and it's been a while."

The orc pulled Shen Huaijin's hand to his mouth, and sniffed the inside of his wrist carefully.

Shen Huaijin twisted her wrist casually and broke free, then flicked her forehead sharply, ignoring the other party's moans, "Don't make trouble, I have something to discuss with you."

Hearing this, he breathed a sigh of relief, pushed the silver hair on his forehead back with his big bony hands, looked at the man in front of him seriously, and waited for what he would say next.

Shen Huaijin took the pen and paper on the wooden stand and began to paint and draw.When firing bricks, he conceived the house in his mind, and now that he has roughly confirmed it, he wants to build a three-in-one courtyard.

While drawing the structure of the yard, he chattered.

"Didn't I always tell you to build a brick and tile house before? Now that the cement is enough, I want to slowly burn out all the bricks and tiles to be used. After the amount is almost accumulated, we will formally build our house. Get up. Look, how does this yard look?"

Shen Huaijin handed the simple drawings to Li Kan.

What is drawn on the paper is a closed courtyard house facing south, with the main house on the north and side rooms on the left and right, connected by walls on all sides, leaving an open space in the middle for other purposes.

The main room and the side rooms are each divided into several rooms. As for the specific use, he has to seek Li's opinion.

Li looked at the drawings carefully for a long time, "It's up to you to decide, remember to leave a room for you to take a bath."

Hearing this, Shen Huaijin chuckled lightly, "Okay."

He took a pen to mark on the paper and muttered, "The north is the main room in the middle, the left and right are the living room and warehouse, the west wing is the kitchen and dining room, and the east wing is our bedroom and bathroom."

"Then do we have to pick another good place to build a yard?"

"Our current place is pretty good, and there are two peach trees and stone tables and chairs, I am not willing to move." Shen Huaijin subconsciously turned the pen in his hand, "We will surround the current thatched grass before the time comes. Let’s build a courtyard for the house, and then raze the thatched house to the ground when the bedroom is completed, and then we can dry the millet on it.”

Clenching his chin and looking at him, tenderness surged in his eyes, "It's all up to you."

After reaching an agreement, Shen Huaijin was satisfied, and continued to burn bricks and tiles during the day.

In order to make room, the fired bricks were piled outside the shed, while the newly made bricks were placed neatly under the shade of the shed roof.

After a new batch of bricks was fired in the kiln, he started making tiles.

Unlike adobe, tile adobe can only be made piece by piece.Shen Huaijin first burned out six short cylindrical clay cylinders, then pasted a circular base cylinder with clay, let it dry until it was half-dried, then took it out of the clay cylinder, cut the cylinder into six or two evenly, and then put it into the kiln. firing.

The six-section fired slab tiles will be laid on the roof at that time, and the half-sectioned slab tiles will be covered between the two rows of slab tiles, which can have better sound and water insulation effects.

The tiles can be directly fired in a brick kiln, which saves him the effort of building another kiln.

Shen Huaijin had just lifted the roof of the kiln, when she saw An leading Ling, a toddler, walking towards him.

He immediately put a smile on his face, wiped his hands with a sweat towel, took a few quick steps to pick up Ling, and kissed Ling on his pink cheek, "Zai Zai, why are you here today?"

"Play! Come find Jin!"

An, who was walking behind, smiled and said, "I said I would come to play with you without having breakfast all morning, and I can't even persuade you."

"So that's how it is." Shen Huaijin put Ling on the ground with a smile, and took his little hand, "Come on, how about Zai Zai cooking delicious food with us?"

"Okay!" The spiritual milk replied childishly.

The two big ones and one small squatted at the entrance of the bamboo path together, stretching out their hands to touch the cool water of the stream.An rubbed her delicate little hands, and asked, "Jin, what are you going to do delicious?"

"How about making some ginger milk? Cool it in the stream and serve it to everyone. It can also relieve the heat."

"That's not bad." An's eyes lit up when he thought of the smooth and cool taste of ginger milk, "I haven't eaten it for a long time, and I'm quite greedy when you say that."

The three of them wiped their hands clean, and were about to go to the animal pen to milk the cows when they heard a violent animal roar, followed by the feeling of the earth shaking and the mountains shaking.

Shen Huaijin turned around in astonishment, only to see a huge monster rushing into the valley.

The giant beast was extremely fast, and rushed in front of the three of them in a few strokes.

An screamed in fright, closed her eyes and stretched her arms and rushed in front of the two.and

At the same time, Shen Huaijin hugged the cub with one hand, and grabbed the short knife tied around his waist with the other.

Look straight at the behemoth in front of you!

The author has something to say: Big dog hook: Hungry, hungry.

Xiao Shen: Look at this room, how do we...

I can't eat well, sleep well, or feel bad. I also need the gentle Xiao Shen to tell me stories.
