43.chapter 43
The first is the residential area, across the river. At this time, people did not have the concept of laying a foundation for building a house, and directly built adobe and stone blocks on the ground, built small low walls that were a little higher than people on all sides, and built a roof with tree branches, thatch and other things. There are families who live together, and there are those who live alone.
In the morning, Cuong led these people to clean up a vacant lot of the boss. When asked, he planned to build more than 200 small houses, and there was a certain amount of vacant space between them...... It's the same in the smelting city, the open space is a place for these people's activities, and they can also grow vegetables or something.
"We are different now than we are in Yezhu City, if so many people live so scattered, not to mention that the cost of building a house is too high, and it is not very safe. At night, in case some wild beast invades, they live so far away from each other and do not take care of each other. ”
Sun Xiuqing proposed to build a house, with ten rooms in a row, side by side, so that the two rooms can share a wall, save costs, and dig the foundation before building the house to ensure the quality of the building. In addition, the orientation is to the north and face the south, and a certain amount of open space is left in front of it. Arranged in this way, a neat community is formed along the river.
Considering that some rooms will accommodate two to three people, the room area is set to about 20 square meters, and the house is built with clay mixed sand and fired earthwork bricks, and the height of the room can be guaranteed to be more than three meters. Each row is equipped with a bathroom and kitchen room, although no one may have used it for the time being, and some equipment will be equipped later, I believe everyone will like this arrangement.
In this way, when the time comes, the old and weak women and children will be given priority to live in the middle of the house, and the young, strong and combat-ready will live in the marginal place, in case of any wild beast invasion, it will also play a protective role.
In this way, in fact, the problem of city defense is much simpler. Beast attacks are relatively rare during the day, and everyone returns to the residential area at night, and building a high wall on the periphery of the community can actually make the most difference.
Sun Xiuqing talked a lot about Ah Wubi, who was in charge of the matter, and the sturdy young man nodded from time to time to show that he understood, and he hesitated from time to time. Sun Xiuqing asked him, "Is there anything you don't understand?" ”
Ah Wu asked her embarrassedly, "What is the foundation?" How to fight? Also, firing earthwork bricks, what is that? ”
Sun Xiuqing searched for a few videos in front of him and sat on the grass with him to watch them. At present, the language on the screen has been translated to him throughout the process. The more Ah Wu looked at it, the more he understood, and his expression became lighter, and after reading it, he nodded at the two of them and said, "I understand, let's arrange it." ”
And then there's the factory.
Ah Qiang also planned to build N separate blacksmith shops according to the experience of the smelting and casting city. Sun Xiuqing told him: "In the future, we will all work together, and if you want to turn the pieces into a whole, you first build a large factory that can accommodate 200 people, and you don't necessarily have walls around it." Come on, come on, you look at this. ”
Sun Xiuqing showed him some photos of the factory, first of all, there should be an empty and spacious factory, and then divide the area in the factory to divide and cooperate. I also found some reference videos for him to see.
A similar concept was conveyed in Guanlong City, but in terms of execution, Sun Xiuqing let their own person in charge supervise it, and she mainly stared at the outside of the city. After more than ten days of such busyness, this place has begun to take shape. Sun Xiuqing asked several leaders in Guanlong City to take care of the people outside, and he and Ma Yi were ready to pick up the courier.
Considering that there were a lot of things and heavy things this time, I called Ah Qiu to help with him, and the hunting team had reached a certain tacit understanding these days, Ah Qiu chose a young man to be in charge for the time being, and the three of them rode a young dragon and left.
The pick-up coordinates sent by the liaison assistant, according to the map, are somewhere in Yaochi District, S City, that is, near the smelting and casting city of this world. Sun Xiuqing guessed why the location would be different each time the goods were picked up, and would there be any clues in this? But after thinking about it, I can't think of any connection between the last Guxun Clan Stonehenge and the mountain behind the smelting and casting city this time. I haven't found any similar features in latitude and longitude, so forget it, I'll talk about it later.
After two days and nights of flight, they arrived at the city, and unlike the last time they came to see the thrilling scene, this time the sky over the city was calm. But in the city, loud slogans were heard from time to time. From above, many residents were gathered for military training, and it seemed that Lie was planning to train the entire smelting and casting city into an army.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Sun Xiuqing decided not to settle in the smelting city this time, but to the designated place and leave when he got the things.
The pick-up location is in the mountain behind the smelting and casting city. The city was built on a mountain, and it took some time to get around. When the three of them landed, Ah Qiuhu looked around suspiciously and said, "Isn't this the forbidden land drawn by the patriarch?" ”
"Forbidden land?"
"That's right, no one in Smelting City is allowed to enter or leave here. Isn't it good for us to trespass on the forbidden land like this? ”
After all, Ah Qiu grew up in the Smelting City, and Lie's orders also carried a lot of weight in her heart.
Sun Xiuqing comforted her: "It's okay, let's take our things and leave, and we will never stay." ”
Ah Qiu nodded, and the three of them searched in the dense woods, really unable to figure out why they put things in such a place.
Doesn't it look like it's good at all? And it's also a forbidden place in the smelting and casting city, to speak...... Could there be any connection between the two?
As he was thinking this, he suddenly heard a voice that seemed to be someone talking from somewhere. The three of them instinctively silenced and crept together. Sun Xiuqing made a shushing gesture and whispered, "You two hide first, I'll take a look." ”
Ma Yi said: "Then you be careful. ”
Sun Xiuqing approached the source of the speech as close as possible to the other side of the mountain, as silently as possible. The voice of the person who spoke was a little familiar, and he quietly poked his head out to take a look, and it was really fierce.
He was explaining something to Xiaoyun. And Xiaoyun, who stood tall like a real soldier, listened to his admonition motionlessly.
"Alright, you can stay here. Be careful not to let anyone approach, not even yourself, and no matter what you hear, don't follow up. ”
"Yes."
After Lie finished explaining, he bent down and walked into a cave. That's his secret, right? It's really a fool.
Sun Xiuqing was not interested in Lie's secret at all, and at the moment she just wanted to go back to find her courier. Just as I was about to walk away unconsciously, I suddenly saw a large cardboard box looming in the grass not far from the cave.
How could such a thing appear in a primitive society, and how could it belong to any one other person? It's clearly her courier!
Fortunately, Xiaoyun didn't seem to notice it at all, and just dutifully guarded the entrance of the cave. But if you want to take things away, you can't avoid his gaze.
It's so hard to do!
Sun Xiuqing quietly retreated, and Ma Yi immediately asked, "Who is it?" ”
"Lie and Xiaoyun. I've found something, but Xiaoyun is there, and we'll have to wait, at least until he's gone. ”
Sun Xiuqing told them about the fact that she saw Lie enter the cave, and Ma Yi judged: "Then wait, that old treacherous and cunning guy is busy to death every day, how long can he spend in the cave?" ”
Sun Xiuqing also thought so.
The three of them waited patiently. I didn't expect to wait, so I waited for three days! During the period, it also rained for a day and a half, damn, Sun Xiuqing is going to die in a hurry, I don't know how much this rain will damage her! That guy didn't die in a cave, did he?
For the umpteenth time, when they carefully considered whether to rush out and grab something, at last, Lie came out. His eyes were red and his eye sockets were sunken, but his expression was particularly excited, and his emotions were obviously high. He staggered out of the cave, but patted Xiaoyun on the shoulder with great joy and said in a hoarse voice, "Okay, let's go back." ”
The two walked away one after the other. Sun Xiuqing immediately rushed to her baby express like an arrow off the string, and thankfully, the surface of the large cardboard box was wrapped in a layer of plastic film, and it was not wet a little. She saw her name on the box, and she couldn't hold back her excitement and didn't unpack it on the spot, after all, it would be very troublesome to open it here and put it back together......
What Ma Yi is most interested in at the moment is not the Korean bibimbap that she misses, but the cave that makes that guy so abnormal.
She walked into the cave without any hesitation, and Ah Qiu was so anxious that she jumped to her feet outside.
Sun Xiuqing confirmed that her things were fine, and she also had the mind to gossip, so she followed up. Ah Qiu jumped and thought, and followed up to take a look.
Inside, it's quiet. Ma Yi curiously looked east and west, and Ah Qiu followed her to look east and west, but she didn't notice Sun Xiuqing's shocked face.
How do you describe this cave that looks ordinary on the outside, but has a hole on the inside? Sun Xiuqing once went to the science and technology museum to play, there will be some similar earthquake experience, geocentric exploration, volcanic eruption and other experience halls, exhibition halls, the characteristics of the inside are generally dark, the dim light can barely see the road, the holographic image system will simulate a variety of different scenes, and then with the narrator's instructions, explain different themes to tourists and friends.
Now Sun Xiuqing sees the same situation as that kind of science and technology exhibition hall. It's just that there are no images or narration at this time, the lights are not turned off, and I look carefully through the dim light, and there is a projector on the roof of the cave......
Maybe it's because he captured a machine guy alive before, but this time Sun Xiuqing is much calmer. She calmly took out her phone, turned it to flash mode, took a picture of what she saw, and sent it to the liaison assistant.
"Dear, does this have anything to do with you?"
The other party replied: "...... Please report back your location. ”
"Report a P, just where you pick up the courier."
The other party replied: "Received, we will take care of it." ”
Damn, what do you mean! But then, no matter whether Sun Xiuqing questioned the set of questions, the liaison assistant was like running out of power, and he didn't reply a word.
There must be something greasy! Sun Xiuqing looked at Ma Yi and Ah Qiu, who were curiously touching around and asking, and thought: Forget it, let's go back and make some bibimbap first, I haven't eaten it for a long time, it's weird.
