Chapter 36: The Skeleton of the Rabbit House

The material is the yellow mud dug up by the excavation team before, and it just so happens that the waste is used.

Wood and leaves are also ready-made, Chen Chao originally planned to split wood to make planks, but found that he couldn't handle materials above one meter and a half, so in the end he had to choose ready-made branches.

Although the branches are not very high, it is better to save effort, as long as it is a rabbit house, it is also an experiment, and it does not need to be very tall.

Chen Chao called the hunting team Li Yi (the one who had to steal the moa eggs) and Qu (the population exchanged with other tribes) to help, and the three of them first selected three batches of wooden sticks.

The height of the first batch is about two meters.

This batch is mainly longitudinal, so there are certain height requirements, and the wood resources in the tribe are basically the highest and longest are so long, because these belong to the branches that grow on the trees.

The second batch is horizontal, and the horizontal one can be arbitrary, if it is not long enough, tie an extra piece of wood with a straw rope to extend the length.

The third batch is wood for the roof.

The roof is built on a herringbone roof, and the wood needed also has a certain height requirement, which can be long but not short, Chen Chao's original plan was to choose two meters like the longitudinal wall wood.

But there are really not so many two-meter-long woods, and the square house plan that I thought of at first can only be aborted, and in the end I can only choose a rectangular house.

In this way, the height of the wood required for the roof can be shorter, after all, it can be short but not long, and if it is short, you can find a way to cut it, and if you want to be long, there is really no way.

Although some of the wood is crooked, as long as the height is reached, Chen Chao will turn a blind eye.

After selecting the wood to build the house, Chen Chao considered whether to lay a foundation, in fact, sometimes it is not necessary to lay a foundation, such as a simple house for temporary residence, if the ground is relatively solid, the one-story house can still be lived.

But if you want to build a building, or a house that needs to be heightened in the future, you must lay a foundation. It is dangerous to raise or renovate the house without laying the foundation.

The role of the foundation is to maintain the relative stability of the house and the ground, and the weight of the foundation is generally much larger than the sum of the total objects inside the house and the house. And with the foundation can be considered, the re-elevation of the house, the renovation of the house and other issues.

If the house is built without laying a foundation, over time, there will be cracks, deformation, and even collapse of the house.

But it's just a rabbit house...

Let's fight, although it's an experiment, but also deal with a full set, so that you can also lay down experience for future construction.

After starting to dig the foundation, it was impossible to use only these three people, so Chen Chao went to various departments to borrow a few people. It's not that Chen Chao's movement this time is not big enough to cause no onlookers, it's that everyone is too busy and busy. For example:

The skinning team responsible for the disposal of wolf corpses, the washing team, and the meat cutting team.

The logging team responsible for cutting down trees, and the temporarily shrunken grass rope team, the old man and the little boy are all part of this team.

These little kids are lawless when adults aren't at home.

Now that the hunting and gathering teams are in the tribe, they have no choice but to sit obediently next to the haystack and rub the ropes.

And the few people who Chen Chao borrowed were still squeezed out, everyone has their own duties, even if you are the deputy leader, it is difficult for us to suddenly ask for someone... (Ω_Ω) (pretending to be pitiful)

Although they are not so fluent in speaking, the general meaning is still clearly expressed, and it is like this: although One-Eye is the person in charge of pottery, but people's intestines are treated quickly and well, and now there is no pottery, you are leaving One-eyed, and others are much slower than One-eye~~

So Chen Chao took two old men, one of whom was still a witch, and the javelin little prince Yi who was disliked by the tree cutting team because he was too thin, and the three of them returned to the vicinity of the rabbit nest.

After the six men moved the rabbits to the cave temporarily, they were ready to start digging the foundation, and the wooden shovel had made 23 when digging the long ditch before, not to mention that the wooden shovel was enough.

Chen Chao originally planned to use the loess from the previous excavation of the long ditch, but since he wanted to lay the foundation, he did not have to go far and far, and then the yellow mud wall was dug out of the foundation, and if it was not enough, he would use the loess on the side of the long ditch.

After laying the foundation, the six people began to build the tree house together, and Chen Chao chose to assemble the parts needed on the ground, and then put the whole house up and assembled.

The horizontal pieces of wood can be made a little longer so that they can get stuck on each other.

However, it was a bit of a problem when it came to the door, because it was difficult to find the right length of wood. Yi, who was in charge of spelling the door, was very depressed, and he tossed for a long time to see that everyone else had done it. His own is not good, the tsundere little prince of javelin, he will not admit defeat!

He's depressed!

Chen Chao waited for a long time to get the missing part, and went over to take a look, only to find that this kid was angry at a few pieces of wood of different lengths.

It turns out that it is other as long as the normal patchwork is good, if you encounter a horizontal is not long enough, at most it is the problem of adding a piece of wood to extend, but the part he is responsible for, because there is an extra door structure, so the wood needed has to be reprocessed, and the door should be short and short, and the long should be long.

Chen Chao sighed, it's not good to hold back this habit of having something to do.

So he began to help Yi build the parts of the door, which were still put together as normal as the parts of the other walls, but when he got to the door, he used a stone axe to cut off the required position and leave the position of the door.

Yi Gang, he is not unintelligent, he is just limited by thinking, at first he saw that he built a wooden wall, and he felt that the piece he was responsible for had to be built like this, and he didn't see anyone else cut the wood, so he desperately went to find some shorter wood.

But the wood he was looking for was of different lengths, and many of them were not the length he wanted.

Seeing that Chen Chao chose to cut out the position of the door directly, the arrogant little prince of javelin suddenly realized, and he also realized that it was wrong for him to think blindly by himself before. Although he was still a little squirming, he still began to try to ask Chen Chao some questions.

Helping Yi get the door right, Chen Chao thought about it, then let's just open a window on the other walls, and then took Yi to frame the approximate location of the window, handed him the axe, and let him leave the needed position.
