Vail smiled bitterly, "Numbers, man, I didn't tell you the number. My men built buildings with eight people in a unit, and eight people were responsible for the construction of one building. How many fishermen do you have there? There must be thirty, right? ”

"Thirty-two ......"

"If they know how to operate small cranes, forklifts and other tools, they can build a building on a mature foundation within a week. And don't underestimate the fishermen, they are all skilled workers, and they must have built houses compared to my workers, who are just inexperienced. ”

It took another day for the seeds and spores of the seaweed algae to be sprinkled into the fishing grounds, and the seawater that the giant algae had finally cleaned became turbid again, and countless seed spores floated with the seawater, absorbing the energy of the sea god and brewing to sprout and grow.

In the evening, Shaq and the bull returned on a transport ship, which in addition to various planks, wooden beams, and columns, also had a series of single-man machines, small and medium-sized hoists, two-wheeled nail boards, percussion drills, etc., which looked very much like that.

The boss and the workers sorted and transported the materials around the building, handed Qin Shiou a bill, and asked him to check and pay.

Qin Shiou took a look, this time the two of them bought basically all wood products, and they hadn't bought doors and windows yet.

Almost all Canadian houses are made of wood, not because there are many local woods that can be selected locally, most of the wood used to build houses in Canada is transported from South America, and they themselves take things like logging and cutting trees very seriously, and do not allow environmental damage to occur.

Wood is undoubtedly much lighter than masonry. In this way, it is easy to construct, and it is convenient to compensate for any problems.

Of course. Timber houses are not as durable as masonry houses, but Canadians don't need their own homes to last as long. This is different from the domestic situation, and is determined by the national conditions of the two countries.

Chinese people don't like to move, they have a strong sense of nostalgia, and they will have feelings after living in one place for a long time, so it is best to build a house durable. Moreover, when you buy a house in China, you don't consider the repayment of the loan, basically all the expenses are paid in the first year, and you can live in it later.

This is not the case in Canada. First of all, Canadians don't like to stay in one place for a long time, which can be said to be more 'adventurous', or it can be said that they are too playful. Therefore, I often see people running around with cars dragging houses on the road, and they can live wherever they want.

In this way, it is natural that a light wooden house is more suitable than a brick and stone house, and once the masonry house is completed, it cannot be taken away in its entirety.

In addition, Canadian houses have a fixed asset tax, which is 3% of the value of the property every year, so if you build an expensive house with masonry, you will naturally pay more prescribed property tax every year. It is better to build a cheap house out of wood. In this way, the remaining property tax can be used for repairs.

Repairs can be strenuous, but Canadians are not afraid of the effort, they love the manual work, and repairs can keep the home up to date. Always keep up with the trendy trends and never fall behind.

There is also one of the most important reasons, that is, Canadian bricks and stones are very expensive, and those who can build houses with bricks and stones are rich families. Many mansions that appear to be brick walls are actually only decorated with brick wall textures, such as the villas in the Daqin Fishing Grounds. It's a layer of tiles on the inside of the wood.

Timber is relatively inexpensive, and South America has the most forests in the world. The Amazon rainforest can provide countless trees, and North America, as a neighbor and big brother of South America, can obtain a large amount of cheap wood, and eventually the people will buy it cheaply.

In Qin Shiou's bill, a large wood four meters high and half a meter in diameter is only 1,000 yuan, which is unimaginable in China. As for the glulam boards used for building houses, they are cheaper, and the 12-centimeter-thick planks cost 500 yuan per square meter.

However, some finished products are much more expensive, and some furniture is best put into it at the same time when building a house, Shaq bought a set of maple cabinets and large wardrobes, which add up to 4,800 yuan. The granite countertops used in the kitchen, this one is more expensive, it costs 5,000 pieces. The beautiful staircase in the small building, this one is 2800 yuan, not including the stair handrail, the stair handrail costs another 2200 yuan.

In addition, the lamps and lanterns should also be purchased in advance, Sha Ke was purchased according to Qin Shiou's requirements, the chandelier used in the hall, 1500 yuan, a circle of twelve spotlights, 1400 yuan. The floor of the toilet kitchen needs to be tiled, and a set is down to 6,000 pieces......

However, on the whole, Qin Shiou felt that it was still not expensive, and all of these added up to only 180,000 yuan.

After he swiped his card to pay the bill, the boss thanked him, and then said that he needed to continue looking for him and left, seemingly surprised by their behavior of building their own house.

Naturally, he had to live in a tent that night, and early in the morning, the shouts of the fishermen and the roar of the machines sounded outside, and Qin Shiou rubbed his sleepy eyes to see the time, it was only five o'clock in the morning.

He lifted the tent and looked out, and the fishermen were already working shirtless, and it seemed that they had agreed to get up early to work. Obviously, these guys are also a bit boastful of saying that they can build a house in six days, so they hurry up and start work like this.

Qin Shiou smiled evilly, deliberately sabotage, and made a fragrant breakfast after he washed up. In fact, it is relatively simple, it is to cook a pot of milk oatmeal, fry small sausages, bacon, meat steaks and other foods in the ship's kitchen, as well as salted duck eggs and pickled devil ginger, etc.

The fishermen are foodies, and they are accustomed to eating Chinese breakfasts with him, and they have a soft spot for devil ginger and salted duck eggs, and they eat too much greasy, and they also like this light and delicious breakfast.

But the fishermen were not fooled, they devoured it when they ate, and finally some even put a few slices of devil ginger in the bread and ran to work, and it seemed that the bet on a salary increase made them tempted.

Qin Shiou followed to help, and he also learned the way Canadians build houses.

The foundation is a layer of cement, and Shaq led people to make a neat division on it with spray paint, and according to the design drawings, several rooms were divided, which is the garage, which is the living room, which is the bedroom, which is the kitchen, and which is the health bureau, which is clearly divided.

After he divided it here, someone immediately used a nail gun to shoot cement nails and nail a piece of wood to it, and then someone found the load-bearing wall, and started the crane to pull up the thick and strong planks, and there were tall columns on both sides as wall columns, dividing several rooms.

In this way, with the construction of load-bearing walls and the addition of wooden square plans, the wide foundation was quickly concealed, and it became a large wooden cage. (To be continued.) )
