Chapter 39 Building a House

The first thing Zhou Zhou did when he returned to his hometown was to ask the village chief to help him build a house, and he went to the village chief's house with a few bottles of good wine and some good cigarettes.

The village head is Zhou Zhou's uncle, and the village head's grandfather and Zhou Zhou's father's grandfather are brothers, so they can be regarded as the same family.

Village head Zhou smoked a pipe, looked at Zhou Zhou curiously and said, "Child of Zhou's family, haven't you settled down in a big city? Why are you back?"

Zhou Zhou replied with a smile, "Although I live in a big city, this is my hometown and my roots. My grandparents and parents are buried here."

After finishing speaking, his expression darkened for a while, and he continued, "So I will come back to live here for a period of time every year in the future. This time, I am sick and under too much pressure, so I will come back to live for a period of time."

Village Chief Zhou smoked his pipe again, and then said to Zhou Zhou, "Okay, it's fine to come back to live, but building a house is not a small sum of money."

Zhou Zhou quickly said, "But if the house is repaired better, I can come back to take care of the elderly in the future, and living in the village is comfortable, and the air in the city is not good."

Village Chief Zhou thought about it, and said to Zhou Zhou, "It's okay to build a house, but it can only be built on the original foundation. The area cannot be enlarged, and only one floor can be built, but a cellar can be dug."

After finishing speaking, he smoked a cigarette silently, and Zhou Zhou hurriedly replied excitedly, "Okay, Uncle Zhou, that's great, but I don't know much about this house. I still need you to worry about it."

"My parents and grandparents are gone, and I will trouble you for everything in the future, so I will respect you as an elder. This is the tobacco and alcohol for you, and you have to keep it."

Village head Zhou looked at the good cigarettes and wine, and Zhou Zhou's honest face, so he accepted it, but told Zhou Zhou not to do this next time, it was too outlandish.

Zhou Zhou smiled and agreed, and then asked the village head uncle when to build the house. The village head uncle said that the construction would start tomorrow and be completed before the autumn harvest in October.

Zhou Zhou quickly agreed with a smile, thanked the village chief for his kindness to stay overnight, and Zhou Zhou returned to the old house and began to look around.

The old house has two rooms facing south. The middle of the room is the kitchen, the west is the place for firewood and coal, and the east is the family's farm tool room, chicken and duck coops, and a cowshed.

Zhou Zhou planned to rebuild these few houses with bricks, but only built a small house facing north and south, and built an earth kang, with the kitchen behind the house.

The bathroom is placed on the east side of the house, making it a dry and wet separation style, and the east side of the kitchen is a firewood room, where firewood and briquettes are placed.

To the west of the house is a tool room, and to the north of the tool room are connected chicken coops and duck coops. Zhou Zhou does not plan to keep other small animals on the surface.

After all, in the end of the world, people can hardly survive, let alone some other large animals.

The house can't be too big, otherwise it's hard not to be missed by others.

Although his house is surrounded by mountains on two sides, it can be considered remote, but Zhou Zhou is unwilling to take risks, even if he has the means to save his life.

After planning the layout of the house, Zhou Zhou began to organize his generator and water purification facilities.

In the early days of the end of the world, there was electricity, but because the wind and snow crushed the wires, and the country needed energy to do more important things, the residents stopped using electricity later.

This time, the bacterial solar generator in my own space can be said to be a big help to myself. This thing can absorb light even in the dark, and then generate electricity.

Although I can also use my spiritual power to display electrical energy, I have to use something to hide my eyes and ears.
