Waste Strong Foundation

On the first Sunday when the players logged into "Trash", Fei Mingqiu woke up early for the first time in a long time.

He has two tasks today.

One is to continue to dispatch players to dig deep ditches on all sides to prepare for the ramming of the city wall, and the other is to redefine the various areas inside the settlement.

With the mobile house that tightly covers the altar as the center, the existing grass and wood buildings on the south, north, east, and four sides can be regarded as the "first ring". The "three rings" need to be divided into separate workshops, residential areas, commercial areas, and training grounds. It is best to upgrade the original square to become a government affairs hall (mission hall).

According to Qi You, there are not only so-called "king cities" in this world, but also caravans that travel to and from various tribes to exchange items.

Caravan?

business?

Fei Mingqiu was very excited at first, thinking that it could prove that the era they lived in was the Shang Dynasty, a dynasty in the Central Plains that existed for more than 500 years.

But Qi You said that the "merchants" he knew did not include "people from the Shang tribe". The pronunciation of "Shang" was passed down from generation to generation.

As for which king lived in the distant "king city" and what obligation or relationship it had with their settlement, he was not at all clear.

Well, it seems that these can only be left to Fei Mingqiu and Shang Yuan to explore slowly, or to return to the caravan.

Primitive barter and armed protection are the basic ways for caravans to make a living, and coins as an intermediate have not yet appeared.

For example, Xiong’s Biancheng Yanchi specializes in salt production, while Qi’s specializes in pottery. Salt is indispensable for eating, and clay pots are indispensable for cooking meat and water. Therefore, caravans will come every season and stay for about two days. , but also brings some novelty.

Such as the ducks raised in settlements by the lake, wild crucian carp caught, or hand-woven leather skirts and leather jackets.

There is also a kind of yellow seed, which can be ground with a stone and kneaded with water, and pasted on the bottom of the pottery tripod to make scones.

Qi You is a priest and can draw. The seeds he drew are very small, granular, not full, and there is a vertical line in the center.

Fei Mingqiu suspected that this was an early diploid or tetraploid wheat.

It is similar to the small amount of wild soybeans collected near the settlement, and has not been artificially selected for thousands of years.

Everyone, wheat!

Steamed buns, noodles, cakes, bread... High-carb food is the best thing in the world.

Compared with cooking a big pot of millet that seems to have nothing to eat, even wild wheat is definitely a sharp weapon to improve the productivity of the tribe!

Thinking of this, Fei Mingqiu's mood improved a lot.

Looking away from the different depths of the drainage ditches dug by the players, he patted the back of his hands to relieve the drowsiness caused by the lack of sleep time.

Do you want to increase the number of people online at the same time?

If I knew it earlier, I should do it in a black box, and put the quota of the internal beta to the civil engineering major——cough cough, it’s nothing.

In the past two days, Fei Mingqiu often appeared in various places randomly with Alpha and measuring tools.

The players are not surprised, and because they subconsciously keep a distance from him, at most they silently find angles to take pictures and take screenshots to make emoticons.

Opposite the ditch.

A female player used a branch to scrape off the mud on the metal shovel, clenched her hands into fists and hammered her sore waist, and ran quickly back to the house to log out.

Her game time today has reached six hours.

The official website was patched in the early hours of last night and said: If the player does not log out on time, there will be a 90% probability of "losing important items".

This is outrageous, there is a difference between 90% and 100% in the game?

Today is Sunday, and the temperature across the country is cooling down. Most of the players with an average age of 20 are curled up in bed to play games.

The female player just went offline, and immediately a player went online, but there was no movement in more than 20 grass houses.

A guess came to Fei Mingqiu's mind, he put down the level and ran towards the square.

A new puppet just made moved its fingers and eyeballs, jumped up and down suddenly, yelled, and was so excited that it couldn't help it.

Players who were submitting mainline tasks nearby clicked on the game panel and kindly saved the precious early ape-man screenshots for him.

This is the first "lucky guy" who won an award in the gastronomy machine section of the official website. He received the VR glasses early in the morning the day after winning the prize.

At the same time, um, he is also a "civil dog" who has struggled on the construction site all year round, and a real "asher (pouring concrete) man".

The male player nicknamed [Yin Yin Da yo] really wants to go offline and find a few people to talk about his excitement at this moment, but he is also afraid that he will not be able to come back today after going offline, so he can only urge: "The opening plot Hurry up! Huh? Grass, it's too real...?"

What was playing in front of his eyes was an opening video that old players were fond of talking about.

Perfunctory, very perfunctory.

The "NPC" wearing a large white hood and cloak stood not far away to check the delivery address filled in by the player.

Fei Mingqiu's eyes lit up when he saw the words "a certain project of a certain construction bureau in Nanjing".

What do you mean when you want to doze off and send a pillow!

For those majoring in civil engineering, this, this is where they come from.

According to his understanding of the various majors in 2021, computer students may not necessarily be good at computers, but civil engineering majors can be called construction site decathlons.

Every young civil engineer who hopes to use what he has learned and show his skills, has not only moved the heaviest bricks and carried the hottest steel bars on the construction site, but also faced the "360 days of hard work" on windy and rainy days. ! Do it! " The construction site slogan is more than the middle finger.

This Yinyin classmate has been working for three years after graduating from university, and he still sticks to the front line of the construction site for food and lodging.

Talent.

……

In the afternoon, another new player tried to log in.

Fei Mingqiu went back to the mobile home to move the newly made doll, and found that Shang Yuan hadn't gotten up yet, so he was relieved and went into the kitchen for 10 minutes.

Business engineers who no longer have the need to clock in and out of get off work gradually began to live a "normal" life of "sleep at night", nicknamed "vacation".

Really laid back.

If he didn't accidentally owe a billion in debt, he should be listening to the pianist's music channel in Central Star's apartment by now.

Fei Mingqiu lowered his eyes slightly, with unfamiliar emotions floating around him, he pressed the button of the food grinder by the sink, put the cleaned cups and forks into the disinfection cabinet, put his index finger and middle finger together, imitating the movement of playing a piano, and vigorously wiped the light metal table top drops of water.

There was a muffled "boom" from outside the kitchen.

Fei Mingqiu's dark black pupils suddenly constricted, and he hastily poured half a cup of boiling hot water to drink, his cheeks flushed strangely.

He covered his lips and coughed twice, as if trying to cover up something, and ran to the living room with a water glass in his arms, "Are you okay?"

Shang Yuan, who stepped on the ground and fell from the third floor to the first floor, was already brushing his teeth in the bathroom, and said vaguely, "I'm fine. Are you back?"

Fei Mingqiu pointed to the pale and lifeless puppet, "Well, let's move this."

"Oh." Shang Yuan didn't have the slightest "fatherly love" for the artificial intelligence little A who was trained/taught by himself, let alone a doll with extremely simple craftsmanship, spit out toothpaste foam, and said while washing his face: "Are you just eating? Is there enough food for you? Are the mushrooms a little bit bad?"

"...It's okay." Fei Mingqiu said guiltily.

Shang Yuan stopped brushing his teeth, and glanced at his wet lips lightly, "Have you recently..."

"What?" Fei Mingqiu squatted in the living room and rummaged through the medicine box. He drank too much water just now, and the inside of his mouth was hairy.

"Are you—" Shang Yuan came over, stared at Fei Mingqiu's waist calmly, and then asked directly, "You lost weight?"

Fei Mingqiu: "Is there any? Maybe it's because the climate doesn't suit you."

Shang Yuan was noncommittal, leaned over and held his right hand that had been put into the medicine box, and rubbed the inside of his wrist twice with his thumb, "I don't think so."

Fei Mingqiu: "Shang... far?"

The moment he looked up, he smelled the smell of hot cocoa, and suddenly he could only see Shang Yuan's black hair, and there was a warm touch from his neck.

When the incident happened suddenly, Fei Mingqiu couldn't help being stunned, maintaining a squatting posture, his eyes were moist and bright.

The spray he found so easily rolled back into the medicine box, his bewildered expression reflected on the curved surface of the composite metal.
