Chapter 59 Different Roofs

"Old Hu, how long can this roof last if it rains!"

"My lord, don't underestimate the leaves on the roof, we locals use them to build houses.

These are the leaves of the taro. After drying, the effect is the same as that of the linoleum cloth you bought, and it will not be broken easily like ordinary leaves. "Old man Hu said proudly.

There are no iron taro leaves for tiles, and several houses in Xin'an County can afford the money to buy tiles.

The leaves can not only build a house, but the taro underneath can also wrap the belly, which is a major local feature.

"So good!
It's really one side, one vulgar, and it's the first time I've heard of this kind of leaves. "

Ziyu went around the wooden house twice more, not even missing the corners where she washes and bathes.

No trace of a nail was found during the whole process. The wooden house made of logs is very primitive, and traces of being burned can be seen in some places.

"That's right, old Hu!

From tomorrow onwards, you will be directly under Steward Sheng's management, and you will be in charge of building the house.

Two months later, there will be a batch of stone and wooden houses that are sufficient for occupancy.

There must be a fireplace and kang for heating inside.

On the largest sloping land below, first build a circle of stone and wooden houses on the outside, and build two exquisite wooden houses inside.

I have a rough idea, let's discuss it together. "

In front of experienced craftsmen, Ziyu will not ask Dadi to think that she is from a later life, so she should know more than others.

She is not good at architecture, so she can only say what she wants in her heart. Her ideas are collected when she wanted to build an ideal residence.

The specific implementation still depends on these veteran craftsmen.

"Thank you, Young Master, for your appreciation, I will guarantee you a satisfactory residence in two months.

If the son has any ideas, just say it, and Lao Hu will definitely follow through. "

The conversation between the two made the Hu family, who were paving the gravel road outside, more motivated.

Ziyu put down Xiao Luo, picked up a twig and squatted down, while drawing, she explained to old man Hu her conception of the house.

This saves even pen and paper!

"Stone and wood houses, the attic on the top is built with wooden squares, which can be used for living and storing food.

The wooden houses with two entrances to the inner courtyard are heated by earth dragons, and the upper part is also an attic.

Every room is equipped with a glass window, which needs to be double-layered..."

"Young master, the construction of the earth dragon still needs to be explored.

It will definitely not be completed in two months.

It also takes a process to dry the wood needed for the wooden house, and the freshly felled trees are wet and easily deformed..."

Old man Hu used to only hear his grandfather talk about the earth dragon, which is a heating method only available to Futai adults.

As for the glass, I have never heard of it!

I didn't expect that there would be a noble son Jiandilong in their mountain lump, so he had to think about it carefully so that nothing went wrong.

"There is no rush for the wooden house, and we will build it after preparing the materials next spring.

Let's deal with the winter thing first. Without a warm house, we can't survive the winter.

The house should be built on the sloping land according to the terrain as much as possible, and the flat place below will be used for farming..."

Old man Hu nodded repeatedly, and he could see at a glance which places were suitable for building a house.

He likes this way of building houses that can be played at will.

"Don't worry, my lord, you will definitely have a satisfactory residence in two months.

Sticky rice and tung oil are needed to build a house, and these two things have to be bought outside.

Lip ash can be made from various shells, and the remaining materials can be obtained locally, which is easy to handle. "

This is the first time Ziyu has heard of lip ash. It is probably similar to lime, and the locals really know how to use local materials.

The wisdom of the ancients cannot be underestimated.

It can be seen that the construction of the wooden house is not ordinary.

"I have ordered a batch of iron nails, I think you can use them somewhere.

I will ask Steward Sheng to fully cooperate with you and work hard.

Well done and continue next year! "

Another cake of purple jade was drawn, and seeing that the wooden house below was almost built, he led Xiao Luo down the mountain.

There are many people who work hard, which is vividly reflected.

The two opposite rows of wooden houses, each with fifteen rooms on the left and right, are already laying the last layer of iron taro leaves on the roof.

When Ziyu passed six wooden houses, the house had been completely remodeled, and a row of two-foot-high wooden beds were nailed to the inside, occupying half of the wooden house.

As the sun slowly sank to the sea level, the new helpers had assigned their accommodation.

A freshly dug ditch leads to a half-man-deep pit next to the cabin.

The turbid water was covered with silt and grass clippings all the way, and poured into the pit to settle.

...

In the barren mountains and wild ridges, the preliminary conditions for living in a decent shape have been met.

All land reclamation and construction will only start tomorrow. Ziyu has unlimited expectations for this paradise in the mountains.

On the road between the two rows of wooden houses, several fires were lit for lighting, and people who ate were squatting or sitting outside the wooden houses.

In the big sea bowls, the two meat dishes at noon remain the same, and there is an extra big crab in each bowl.

They are all people who live by the sea. They even tasted seaweed in order to fill their stomachs.

With the precedent of being full at noon, although everyone ate fast, they no longer gobbled it up, but became interested in chattering.

Especially around Mr. Hu's six, some craftsmen who were familiar with them gathered together to inquire about the afternoon's affairs.

"Four, Uncle Hu looks very happy tonight, there must be something good!"

Liu Heizi, who is in his thirties, dare not talk to the older members of the Hu family, so he can only use the old and honest Hu Siyou to talk to him.

As for Hu Quan's junior, if he doesn't understand anything, he definitely won't know.

"Yes, I will find out tomorrow!"

Hu Siyou curled his lips in the dark, he really regarded him as an honest man, so he said whatever he wanted.

[That's the only good thing they have for the Hu family, tomorrow they will make those people envious! 】

"What a good thing, you should make it clear!

We are all neighbors, so there is nothing we can't say.

Speak out, let brother be happy for you too! "

Liu Heizi approached Hu Siyou, and stretched out his chopsticks to grab a piece of meat from his bowl.

He didn't know what kind of meat it was, it tasted weird.

"Liu Heizi, what are you doing!" Hu Siyou turned his back and shouted.

"Hey, I was discovered by you kid." Liu Heizi didn't feel ashamed at all.

"If you want to fight, go back to Xin'an County and fight again.

If it causes me to be deducted from wages, I will throw you into the sea to feed the fish! "Hu Siyou said in a low voice.

Liu Heizi was embarrassed and didn't say anything more. The strength of the Hu family made him not so stupid as to give others a reason to fight.

"Mom, where do you live at night?"

"It's okay, you and Erniu live together, so mother can rest assured.

After eating, I built a hut under the cliff, and the weather was not cold no matter what. " Shi Liu gritted his teeth and said.

In order to stay and work, I don't care about so much.

……

Half an hour later, many newcomers went back to the wooden house and lay down, touching their stomachs that rarely felt full, and closed their eyes beautifully.

After a while, there were snoring sounds one after another.

Outside, those who were not arranged to live in the wooden house were guarding the fire, and had no intention of leaving.

Because, they are waiting, waiting for the promise to leave!
"Hahaha, it's all here!

Come, come, pay the hard work to the brothers, line up one by one!
Line up according to the standard of your ship boss! "
