Lords of War: Sinicized Dragonborn

Chapter 20, Building the Wooden Firepit Hall

The words "take advantage of advantages and avoid evil" are enough to fully explain all of Li Di's actions.

Since we already know that the south is either a disaster or a disaster, and we already know the characteristics of this week and next week, why can't we avoid disasters in advance?

Do you have to wait until disaster befalls you and there is nowhere to escape?
Crossing a big river can completely isolate more than [-]% of the disasters in the south on the south bank.

The valley of the Longyan Mountain in the dragon vein of the mountains and rivers is another treasure land that can bring great benefits to Li Di's hegemony, the development of the territory, and the convenience of everyone's life.

Taking advantage of the active choice of pros and cons, the right time, place and people are under control.

Isn't the entire Liyue territory on the fast track of development?
In this primitive wild ancient times, the only way for human beings to avoid disasters was to migrate!
Migration is an instinctive survival skill that has been inscribed into the laws of human survival.

Even in the modern society of the previous life, this instinct has not disappeared.

From the countryside, move to the city, and then hide from the city back to the countryside.

Natural disasters and man-made disasters, wars and horses, fleeing from famine and plague, a word escape, a word hide, represents everything.

The third day has passed, and it is less than four days before the aggressive tantrum next week.

In this short period of four days, Li Di needed to build enough residences for all the people in Li Family Village.

It is also necessary to build the system building carrier and build the fortifications of the territory.

It is best to use sufficient preparations to deal with the drastic changes that will come next week.

It was another night of voluntary all-night work and compulsory overtime.

That night, Emperor Li cut down hundreds of trees, surrounded by thick and thin wild trees alone.

This is a savage plant similar to a pine tree and an arbor. The trunk is not too thick, but it can grow tall.

In the whole tree, only the crown of branches and leaves exists at the top, and under the crown are straight trunks that are smooth and not branched.

When the aboriginal barbarians got up in the morning, they saw the eye sockets of the Longyan Mountain.

That tall forest of trees was like being bitten by an unknown giant.

A large gap appeared, and there were trees lying crookedly on the ground.

After waking up in the morning, the top priority is to start a fire and cook.

The native barbarians used to have two meals a day, and each meal consumed nearly [-] catties of food.

After changing to three meals a day for two consecutive days, the food consumed for each meal decreased slightly, and I could eat more than 700 catties of food for three meals a day.

Of the more than 2000 catties of food caught the day before yesterday, half of the five meals have been eaten so far.

If you save a little food, you can catch another net of fish during the day, which is basically enough for the food consumption and supplement of all the indigenous tribes.

So today Li Di's task is to organize the manpower of the indigenous tribes to cut down trees and build houses.

After eating, Emperor Li gathered the native barbarians in front of the core of the territory, and began to arrange today's labor work.

There were 21 adult men in the original tribal hunting team, and six of them were unable to participate in labor due to injuries during previous hunting.

There are 15 remaining adult men who are able-bodied and have an intact labor force.

Li Di saw that this was the case, so he just divided into three teams, with five adults in one team.

Coupled with some half-sized children, the manpower will be enough.

In the tribe, as long as they can work, they all need to work.

Especially these underage children.

Before, it was because the hunting team was too dangerous. In order to preserve the future seeds of the tribe, they were not allowed to go hunting with the hunting team.

However, when it comes to Emperor Li, the situation is different.

He doesn't need these half-children to go out and kill the beasts.

They are all safe jobs of felling trees, moving and trimming logs.

In the previous life, when Li Di was the same age as them, when the family was familiar with the dealer, he didn't have to help the family collect food?

Give the two-handed federal sword to the captain of the tribal hunting team, and let him lead four adults and ten and a half children to continue cutting down trees.

Give the two iron daggers to the most clever native barbarian in the tribal hunting team, and also give him four adults and ten and a half children.

Ask him to bring someone to trim the wood and move it to the location Li Di needs.

Then Li Di personally made a team of five adults and ten and a half children, to level the site and dig the foundation of the building.

As for the other Lijiazhuang women, let them collect vines and continue kneading the hemp rope.

There is no way, at present, there are too few adult women who can serve as labor force in Lijiazhuang.

Although women are much more expensive than men, they all have big bellies.

They can't do heavy physical work at all, that is, this kind of work that is not too tiring, such as collecting vines and kneading hemp rope, is more suitable for them.

Moreover, hemp rope and vines are the most scarce supplies in the tribe.

After the work of everyone in the tribe has been arranged, he, Emperor Li, can lead people to do his own work.

He needs to find out the direction of the ends of the dragon veins in a territory of more than 5000 square meters based on Fengshui geomancy techniques, and find out the specific locations of the dragon vein nodes.

Then, according to the Dongtianfudi technique, the three system buildings were built on special dragon vein nodes in turn.

The core of the territory is used as the eye of the formation, and the three system buildings are used as the formation.

Within the scope of the territory, the Three Treasures Wishful Formation is laid out to build the embryonic form of the cave-heaven-blessed land.

Fully activate the characteristic attributes of Dongtian Fudi technique.

The first thing that needs to be built is the carrier building of the concept dress (village).

The carrier building constructed must have the actual use value of the building.

Only in this way can it become the carrier building of the concept dress.

And the system building will have a minimum number of grid requirements, if the requirements are not met.

Then the system building you build will be the lowest-grade system building special effect attribute, and it will not work.

And Li Di's current territory area is more than 5000 square meters, and the building standard of each grid is 125.6 square meters of construction area.

Therefore, after fusing the soldier pieces of other war lords, in addition to bringing about an increase in the territory value visible to the naked eye.

It also raised the requirements for the territory construction of a war lord like Li Di.

If it is a war lord who has not fused soldier pieces, they probably only need to build a small building covering an area of ​​more than 30 square meters, which can meet the minimum requirements of the system building.

And like Emperor Li, a war lord who has not only fused the pieces of the territory once, the difficulty of building the system building will be doubled! !
This is not a matter of simple talk, the gap here is too big.

For example, the trees cut down by Emperor Li, one person surrounded the thick and thin trunks as building materials.

The larger the building area of ​​the system building, the more wood it needs to consume.

The more wood that needs to be consumed, the correspondingly more labor force is needed to log.

And if you want more people, you need to build system buildings to recruit people.

Recruit population, build system buildings, and cut wood.

Thus, a perfect endless loop was formed.

After the value of territorial chess pieces like Li Di has increased several times.

Originally, the system building could be built in one day, but because the required building area has increased, it does not mean that the time can be extended several times, and the building can be completed as desired.

Unless Emperor Li is willing to give up production efficiency and choose to spend more time, by saving labor and prolonging the construction time, he can break this endless cycle.

However, the current Emperor Li simply cannot build slowly and leisurely.

He himself is already lagging behind other war lords, and the development and construction of the territory took more than three days.

The first week of this relatively mild living environment has less than four days left.

After Emperor Li measured out one by one, the three system buildings, the dragon vein nodes that needed to be placed.

Li Di asked him to cut down the trees he worked overtime last night, trim the branches and leaves, rough process them into wood, and move them to the detected dragon vein nodes.

The construction site of this first system building is at the eye end of the longan in the mountain range.

When the trunks waiting to be felled and trimmed into timber are moved over.

Li Di arranged for the people he brought over to start leveling the site, weeding and removing stones, and excavating the building foundation.

The native barbarians who had arranged before, pruned the trees he felled last night into wooden planks and stakes that can be used for building houses, and moved them to their places.

The two groups worked together to drive the cut wooden piles into the four corners of the building foundation dug by Li Di and his men, and used them as load-bearing piles for the wooden house.

A mortise and tenon structure is chiseled on the load-bearing piles, and the raised ground beams at both ends are clipped into the load-bearing piles at the four corners to form the ground beam frame of the house.

Then drive sharp wooden stakes one by one into the ground beams lying in the foundation.

The wooden pile wall is fixed with vine hemp rope, and the position of the door and window is reserved. A beam is inlaid on the top of the wooden pile wall to frame the entire row of wooden pile walls.

After filling and compacting the foundation, this is a very strong wooden pile wall with the simplest process.

To build a wooden house in this way, the tree trunks felled basically do not need to be overhauled.

It is only necessary to repair the upper and lower ends of the wooden pile, as well as the uneven parts of the wooden pile that do not fit with other wooden piles, as well as the ground beams and beams that are fixed up and down.

Then erect girders, triangular roof frames, lay fish scale shingles, and install wooden doors and windows.

During the process of building the wooden house, Li Di also handed over his knight scepter to the big indigenous girl who stayed up late with him to weave grate.

Tell her to bring some half-grown tribal girls to smash some vines that have been collected.

After the vines are pounded into plant fibers, they are mixed with gravel and other aggregates and mixed with soil to form the simplest soil-based cement.

All the corners and corners of the wooden house, the potholes inside and outside, and the leaks are all covered with this kind of soil cement, evenly painted, and painted again.

Then, use the debris obtained when trimming the wood and a large number of pebbles to fill the floor in the room to prevent moisture.

In the middle of the house, a one-meter-square fire pit was built with large stones and local cement.

Then, outside the firepit, the rest of the ground in the house is paved with a layer of wooden boards.

A bonfire can be set up in the firepit to speed up the drying of the freshly applied soil cement in the entire wooden house.

So such a simple wooden house with an area of ​​more than 120 square meters and a fire pit hall.

It only took one morning, and the construction was accelerated by everyone.

As soon as the Huotang Hall was built, Emperor Li immediately took out the conceptual dress (village) and chose to load it into the civil Huotang Hall.
