Section 287 The Love Activities of the Stars 2
Li Jingyuan's self-recommendation was very effective, he got this task as he wished, and after he went to the roof as light as a swallow, he began to take action.
According to the position that he was optimistic about just now, Li Jingyuan cautiously lightened his steps, and slowly came to the leaky position that the old man said, he was afraid that because of his own negligence, he would step on these already fragile tiles.
"This is it." When Li Jingyuan arrived at the position, he squatted down and began to check. The old tiles above were uncovered, and the roof shed underneath was revealed.
It doesn't matter if you look at it, it startled Li Jingyuan. Due to disrepair, the roof here has deteriorated very badly, the wooden roof has been soaked and deformed by rainwater, and there are many holes caused by decay.
That's a big problem, and it seems like there's more to be done than a little bit. In order to confirm the size of this rotten area, Li Jingyuan also asked the old man again, and after getting approval, he began to expand the scope of inspection.
It wasn't until he uncovered all the tiles near the rotten area that all the problems were exposed. Now the task in front of him is still very serious, in addition to replacing the roof of about one square meter, he also has to find some waterproof materials and construction glue, so as to ensure that similar things do not happen to the roof after the replacement.
Fragmented materials are easy to solve, and now the difficulty is to get out of the wooden planks used to repair the ceiling, plywood is not nothing, but that thing is really not used, if you want to ensure the quality, it is better to use solid wooden boards.
"Uncle Li, is there any wood here that can be used?" Looking at the materials at hand, it was really a little inappropriate, Li Jingyuan found the village chief and asked, because so many people came to help with things today, and the scene was a little chaotic, so the chief also kept following the side to control the scene.
"What do you want? Is this a success? Hearing Li Jingyuan's inquiry, the lieutenant chief didn't say much, and directly took him to his family's warehouse, where a lot of timber was piled up, which seemed to be leftover from the chief's family when they built a house.
"Hehe, it's just right, Uncle Li, can you use these?" Looking at these materials, Li Jingyuan smiled happily, although the size is a little inappropriate, but this is not a problem, as long as it is simply sawed, it is much better than not finding the materials.
"Then take it and use it, this is also the rest of my family, if you don't come, it is estimated that I will burn it as firewood in a few days."
After getting the materials, Li Jingyuan found helpers and carried these things to the construction site together. Now what we have to do is to clean the old roof, and after the cleaning is done, measure the size of the gap, and make a new one directly according to the size.
Li Jingyuan, who was standing on the roof, moved his steps cautiously, almost in a lying position, and reached out to uncover the rotten wooden board.
This roof is indeed useless, Li Jingyuan felt that he didn't use any force, so he broke off the plank, and then looked at the nails on it, they were all about to rust and break.
"Hey~~~ This is too exaggerated." Putting the rotting wooden board aside, Li Jingyuan continued to reach out and remove a piece.
At the moment when Li Jingyuan stretched out his hand, a small thing suddenly flew out of the hole he had just uncovered, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye, and Li Jingyuan was also startled.
"What's that?" Knowing that there might be a problem inside this roof, Li Jingyuan didn't stretch out his hand rashly, but took a look at it by the side of the mouth.
"Holy." At this glance, Li Jingyuan's scalp was a little numb. It turned out that the thing that flew out of the hole just now turned out to be a soil bee, and now there are a lot of them in the hole.
Because the soil bee is an ectothermic animal, the body temperature will change with the temperature of the surrounding environment, and the severe cold of winter threatens their survival all the time. Smart bees use the method of "huddling together to keep warm" to survive the winter.
When the temperature inside the nest drops below 13°C, they lean on each other and form a spherical ball around the queen bee to prevent cooling and keep each other warm. The lower the temperature, the tighter they clump. At the coldest time, the temperature inside the bee ball can be maintained at more than 20 degrees! The surface temperature of the bee ball is lower than the center of the ball, and the bees outside drill into the center of the ball, and the ** bee in the center of the ball takes the initiative to transfer outward, so that they keep repeatedly exchanging positions, and they do not dissolve the ball to feed separately when they are hungry, but the bees on the surface of the bee ball take the ** sugar stored in the beehive, and use the method of mutual transmission to solve the problem of food and clothing, and safely overwinter. ,
What is presented in front of Li Jingyuan's eyes now is such a scene, under a beehive with a diameter of about ten centimeters, there is a ball held by **bees, and the **bees on the surface of this ball are constantly moving, which looks really uncomfortable.
In the face of such an obstacle, of course Li Jingyuan couldn't just reach out and pick it, he didn't want to be targeted by the ** bees to carry out kamikaze attacks.
"Uncle Li, there's trouble here!!" When it's time to ask for help, he will still ask for help, Li Jingyuan is not the kind of dead brain who can't do it and is hard.
"What's the matter? Are you hurt? Hearing Li Jingyuan's shout, not only did the lieutenant run over, but even Brother Kong, who was also working in this courtyard, also ran over. Who made Li Jingyuan's work position dangerous, he shouted like this, which would inevitably make people a little worried.
"Brother Zhen, I'm fine." Showing a smile to Brother Kong, who cared about him, Li Jingyuan said to the chief: "Uncle, there is a honeycomb here." If you don't dispose of it first, you won't be able to continue the work. ”
"Honeycomb? What kind of bee is it? Hornet or **bee? "In the countryside, bees are a good thing, and the bees of the native bees can be regarded as high-end skin care products, and in everyone's eyes, this thing is not worse than those high-end boutique oral liquids on the market.
"It should be a **bee, it's relatively small, I'm sure it's not a wasp." After taking a closer look, Li Jingyuan replied loudly while lying on the roof.
In fact, even if you don't need to look at it, you can know that this is a ** bee, because the hornets will not continue to maintain the social structure of the bee colony during the winter, and they will disperse to find a place to hibernate in winter, and only after spring will the female bees rebuild their nests and lay eggs. Only ** bees will still have such a bee colony structure in winter, but Li Chang and Li Jingyuan are not very clear about this common sense, so there is such a conversation.
"Then you wait a little while I'll go find the tools." After hearing that it was **bees, the lieutenant ran away happily, it seems that he wants to get these **bees back to raise them.
After a while, the lieutenant returned with a pile of equipment, including a long-handled net, a hat with a gauze curtain, and a beehive.
"Uncle Li, can you transfer these ** bees over now? Can you feed it? "Li Jingyuan doesn't think that the eldest uncle here can raise such a group of bees, after all, now is not a good time to change rooms for bees.
"Hehe, it's okay, it's best to be able to feed, and there's no loss if you can't feed." The chief is relieved, and he doesn't care if he can feed it, anyway, in his opinion, if he can feed it, it should be cheap.
Seeing that the lieutenant chief said this, Li Jingyuan didn't say much, took the tools handed by the lieutenant to the roof, and after dressing neatly, Li Jingyuan stretched out the net pocket to the hive.
"Remember to take off the beehives together, it's useless to have **bees alone." When Li Jingyuan was acting, the lieutenant chief was still admonishing below.
Fortunately, the action went relatively smoothly, **the bees are still quite docile, or it may be because the weather is too cold, **the bees don't have too strong attacks**, so Li Jingyuan just took a little time to pick this bee cluster with the honeycomb.
When the lieutenant took over the honeycomb from Li Jingyuan's hand, he immediately ran away with the beehive, according to his words, now is the most critical time, to find a warmer environment for these ** bees as soon as possible, to improve their survival chances.
Looking at the fast disappearing back of the lieutenant, Li Jingyuan also smiled, and then climbed onto the roof again to continue working.
After getting rid of the ** bee, the obstacles in Li Jingyuan's mission were swept away, and after continuing to remove the rotten wooden planks on the roof, Li Jingyuan finally made a big hole in the roof of the old man's house.
At this point, the task is half done, and the next step is to replace the roof with new boards. After measuring the size, Li Jingyuan began to work on the materials that he had just moved from the chief's house.
"Jing Yuan, you really look like a carpenter." Seeing Li Jingyuan's current posture, Brother Kong, who was passing by, gave him an evaluation.
Now Li Jingyuan has a pencil pinned to his ear, holds a chainsaw in both hands, and has one foot on the plank, this frame is indeed very much like a skilled carpenter, no wonder Brother Kong gave him such an evaluation.
"Hey, hey." After smiling, Li Jingyuan did not reply, but continued to see the wood attentively.
I don't know what the reason is, Li Jingyuan is very rhythmic when he saws wood, and when he hears such a voice, Brother Kong Zhen joked again: "Jingyuan, you have sawed wood to the level, if you don't do this business in the future, you can also do carpentry." ”
"Hehe, brother Zhen, see me show you a hand." Back and forth, Brother Kong always joked about himself, Li Jingyuan was also interested, and after clearing his throat a little, he put down the chainsaw in his hand, and then gestured to the wooden board with his empty hands, and at the same time made an imitation sound in his mouth.
"Ga Ri ~~~ Ga Ri ~~~ Ga Ri ~~~, Ka ~!!"
"Wow, haha, haha, you kid really learns like that, what's going on with the last sound?" Hearing such an image imitation of Li Jingyuan, Brother Kong laughed loudly.
"I'm tired of sawing, so I stepped on it directly!!"
