Volume II Chapter 141 The House Is Completed

Nothing was found for the last two days, but not a single crocodile was found on the beach or in the sea for two days in a row, and I was optimistic that there were no crocodiles on the island.

For two days I was almost patrolling back and forth on the beach, and if there were crocodiles, they would have been spotted, and two days without them, which proved that they had indeed been cleared!

The suspicious nature makes me think that this conclusion is still debatable, but if nothing else, crocodiles do not exist on the island......

Most of the relatively intact crocodile skins have been collected and nitrated, and so far there are more than 20 crocodile skins kept in the house, including those that were previously used.

I can't rule out that I will live here until I am old, so the crocodile skin left by the completely disappeared crocodile can be regarded as an important material, or a material that cannot be replenished.

More than 20 pieces of fish skin must not only be fully processed, but also well preserved, and may still be useful in ten or twenty years.

After wiping all the crocodiles off the island, I was undoubtedly completely relieved, but the other troubles encountered were no less!

Another batch of pottery is about to be made, and a clay pot is scrapped again when the salt is boiled, and the usual scrapping is added to the usual scrapping, and the pottery, which was not abundant, is once again overstretched.

If you count the kitchen and the third room that will be built soon, I have four houses, and there is plenty of space for pottery, and I am very distressed to give up too much crocodile meat, so I decided to add two more clay pots in addition to the necessary clay pots.

If you don't do it, you can't do it, the pottery bowl that used to hold grain was also used to hold fish, and by the time the corn was harvested, I estimated that there would be a maximum of three or four hundred catties of capacity, which was far from meeting the demand.

Fortunately, making them is not very complicated, and there are eight or nine hundred pounds of materials in the open space outside, so there is no need to worry about the problem of insufficient clay!

......

During the process of drying the pottery, the bricks and tiles of the new kiln were completely dried, and the materials used to build the third room were enough to count this kiln.

Judging from the recent activity track, it has not been leisurely, and I am even a little tired, but when I think that the construction of the house will be completely completed after the completion of the third room, I can feel as excited as if I have been injected with chicken blood!

I have been tossing back and forth on the house for several years, and I am finally looking forward to the final end, and it is difficult not to be excited......

If nothing else, the completion of the house should guarantee that it will not be tossed around for at least 20 years, because the test has proved that the extremely strong typhoon will not be able to cope with it.

As for the earthquake, I can only consider myself unlucky, but I don't think I'm so lucky!

This kiln is very important, but the process is not very smooth, and the rain comes again in the later stage, maybe God just can't see my good.

Fortunately, it is still spring, and the rain is very small, and even the eaves are only dripping down, so in the end, it was rushed by a fierce fire for two or three hours, and the bricks fell unharmed.

Immediately after the rain stopped, I started work, and at this time there seemed to be a raging flame burning in my heart, which made me feel very energetic, even if there was a cow in front of me, I could carry it!

The construction of the third room was not shortened by my urgency, but was full of twists and turns......

On the fifth day of construction, the wall was just over 1.5 meters high, and the rain came again, this time the rain was not only heavy, but also very long, and it rained for a week.

The damage caused to me is not insignificant, the thin mud used to bond the wall in the next two days was washed away by the heavy rain and there was a part of the cavity and displacement, because my own momentary negligence did not cover it, resulting in two more days of rework to restore the progress before the rain!

The rain was only a frustration, and the bigger trouble was the injury, as my foot slipped slightly while standing on the roof and fixing the wood with nails, and the back of the axe that had been smashed into the nail ended up on my finger.

The left index finger was broken, although it was not very serious, but it must not be able to move on the roof until the wound was sealed, after all, there was no band-aid here, and I was worried about the injury on the other!

......

The project dragged on day by day, even if there was only the last three or four days of work, but the pottery was fired in the cave first.

An injury to one finger has little impact on the kiln, at least as long as you pay a little attention to it, it rarely bumps, not to mention that your fingers are wrapped in layers of cloth.

Everything was done with ease, and two kilns were fired in two days, and a total of eight clay pots and five clay pots were obtained, as well as two clay pots.

Although it doesn't look like much, it won't be a problem to use it normally for a year or two, and then the days should be more leisurely!

Perhaps because of too many injuries, the body has a certain ability to resist, but the process of finger recovery is extremely fast, and the construction can be carried out again after only five or six days.

The quick recovery is also a good thing that I would like to see, after all, it will also make my life easier to complete all the construction work and connect several houses into a whole.

In the past, when you went to the kitchen on a rainy day, you had to go through the third room in the open air, but after that, you don't need to use it, and the rooms are connected as a whole.

After becoming a whole, the structure of the house can be strengthened, and the resistance to typhoons can be improved by a level, especially the kitchen that was originally suspended on the side, and the stability will be better!

The completion did not last long, and the construction of the third room was completed in mid-June, marking the completion of all the main work on the house.

In the future, most of the time and energy can be allocated to daily production and life, simply put, more time can be used, more freedom!

The heart that was still hanging because of all kinds of troubles has also relaxed as one thing after another has been solved, especially the completion of the house.

The problem of shelter may be a matter of great concern to most animals, not only humans, but also the birds in the sky, the animals on the land in the middle, and the fish in the water seem to be very interested in living conditions!

It's no surprise that people spend half their lives saving to buy a house, because even on a desert island like this, figuring out housing takes up a considerable part of my time......

From the initial renovation of the cave, to the second generation of wooden houses, to the brick houses, and now to the relocation of the island to rebuild the houses, the time spent on the houses accounts for almost one-third or more of the labor time on the island.

I have to say that the price is very large, and there is quite a strong resistance to building a house from body to heart, and I think this time it should be the last toss on the house!

......

There are 400 bricks and more than 300 tiles left after the house is finished, and at the moment there is no other use for the tiles, and keeping them for spare is the only option, but it is very necessary, and I would have even made some more without them.

The floors of several houses have been completely covered with bricks, so I have laid these bricks into the sheepfold and formed a hard floor of more than 10 square meters.

Judging from the hardened area of the sheepfold on the top of the hill in the past, it is still far from the area, not to mention the need to use hundreds of bricks to renovate the swimming pool, and I don't think the drying field outside the house is not large enough.

I was so big that I wanted to expand the drying area to one or two hundred square meters, and the road down the mountain was also paved with a layer of bricks, although I felt that such a task was too onerous and canceled most of it, but it was also a lot needed.

So even if the house is fully built, the brick gap will still exist!

But the process of making bricks will definitely not be as focused as before, but occasionally take the time to make some, after all, there are no fishing plans recently, and there is no need to rush the pool that needs bricks the most.

It can be regarded as a link and a link, and the renovation work of the swimming pool has correspondingly become less urgent and can be carried out slowly.

It's a rare time to relax, and I'm ready to rest for a few days.

One of the most important things for me to do is fishing, because there is so little entertainment, there seems to be little other choice, if sleeping at home can be considered a recreational activity, you can make the following choice!

But desert island life is different from the nightlife of the city, because there are no entertainment devices such as mobile phones, and there is no means of lighting, so it has become a habit to go to bed early.

Sleeping lazily when you are tired is a kind of enjoyment, which can be regarded as a kind of entertainment, and you will definitely be excluded when you are idle!

It's just a pity that there are relatively few locations for fishing on Crocodile Island, and there is no longer a good location for deep water next to the natural reef on the island, so the usual record is not good enough.

......

Today I wanted to find a better place to fish besides fishing, and after trying it last time in the small bay where the boat was parked, it was completely substandard, and the fish did not hide in some areas with gentle currents like river fish.

First of all, I ruled out two beaches, and I already knew that the beach was flat in the past, and even if I threw out all the fishing lines from the shore, I could not reach a depth of more than five meters.

For marine fishing, even if the water depth cannot exceed 20 or 30 meters, at least ensure that the water depth is close to 8 to 10 meters before there will be more fish......

In addition to passing the time as a recreational activity, the purpose of fishing is definitely to fish more, especially the big fish, which are generally hidden in deep waters.

After eliminating most of the positions, I went straight to one of the few positions that I thought were barely up to par.

As a result, the waves were huge in this location, and after two hours of staying, nothing was found, and I was forced to move to a new location.

The second location, although better, was also very reluctant, and after two hours of sitting down, I only caught one fish, which was still only the size of a palm!

Although fishing is a matter of luck, I was not very happy with this location, so I had to look for a good spot and finally found a third location.

It's just outside the bay and it's a good place to stay on a higher level, with a drop of more than three meters from the sea.

Because I had just sat down for only ten minutes before I got the first fish, a big fish that was more than five pounds, and an hour later I got a second big fish that was more than three pounds.

Two fish caught my heart, and I decided that this was the place I would want to fish in the future!
