As the old saying goes, live and work in peace and contentment, people are obsessed with their own houses, it is the container of the family, and it is a symbol of stability.

Jun Qianqian is no exception.

"In my hometown, on the day of the beam, I had to set off firecrackers and eat a running water mat."

The girl sat on a pile of bricks and shook her feet leisurely while the sun had just risen and the morning wind was cool.

"What is a running water mat?"

Luo Ze dug the foundation for their house and chatted with her by the way.

"It's the owner of the house, and he wants to invite the whole village to his house for dinner!"

There are no luxurious dishes in the town's flowing water table, a fish, a few plates of meat, mushrooms and wild vegetables produced in the mountains, home-raised chickens and ducks, and then cut half a watermelon, plus a plate of fried glutinous rice balls that children love, it is enough!

"Shall we invite our people to dinner too?"

Luo Ze was a little confused when he heard this, the word please eat has no meaning to the Purple Flower Tribe, they have been together for a long time, and they have a big pot of rice every day, and they can't talk about who invites whom.

"Then it's better for the whole family to build a house and celebrate together."

Jun Qianqian rolled her eyes helplessly.

Anyway, only salt barbecue can be eaten, so what's the difference with dinner?

When the foundation of the house was dug to a depth of one meter, Luo Ze obediently stopped, Jun Qianqian selected a large stone from the excavated soil, and the broken bricks exerted their residual heat at this time, and were filled in the pit and paved the first layer.

"It's called laying the foundation?"

Unlike most people in the clan who don't want to understand, Luo Ze likes to ask about the new things she said, he learns very quickly, what Jun Qianqian has taught, he can explain to the other tribesmen when he turns around.

"Well, if you don't lay the foundation, the wall will fall down as soon as you push it, how dangerous it is."

Jun Qianqian also likes to tell Luo Ze, and the people listen to instructions, but there are many words that are directly told to everyone, and they are difficult to understand.

Luo Ze is her "Chinese-to-Chinese" royal translator!

"No wonder the wooden house I built is always blown down by strong winds."

Roze recalled his failed attempts, and the problem turned out to be this.

"Yes, in addition to this, it is necessary to bury wood at the four corners of the brick house to reinforce it, and this kind of wood is called 'pillars', and the ones that come across are called 'beams.'"

Jun Qianqian uses hemp rope to measure the size, the brick house is rectangular, the structure is divided into a kitchen and three rooms, the simple east and west house design is horizontal and vertical, there is no pattern and aesthetics at all.

There's nothing wrong with being simple and rude! Rush the duck!

"Columns and beams."

Luo Ze repeated it several times in his mouth, memorizing these two words.

"Pillars and beams are the most important things to support a brick house, and the people who support the life of the family can also be called the pillars of the house, Luo Ze, you are now the pillars of the family!"

The second layer of the foundation is flattened with bricks, which not only prevents water seepage, but also prevents the land from sinking over time.

"Qianqian is also the pillar of the tribe."

Luo Ze came to learn and sell now, and his expression was very serious and sincere.

"Do we want to blow each other like this, it's so embarrassing!" Jun Qianqian pursed her mouth and said dissatisfiedly, "I'll just move my mouth, and you will rob you of all the heavy work." ”

If she were to burn these bricks alone, she would be able to perform one and die on the spot.

"We take care of each other."

Roze poked her swollen face.

"Hmm!"

Jun Qianqian gave him a warm smile back.

Even in this era where huddling together for warmth can survive, other tribes are not all of this heart.

Tribes with more people will be divided, tribes with fewer people will be merged, and in displacement, people will become selfish in order to survive, but they will be weaker because of selfishness.

Strong cohesion is a precious thing.

The two of them have stepped on the foundation and can start the next step.

"It's up to me to build the wall!"

Seeing that the foundation and pillars were all done, Jun Qianqian suddenly became interested in moving bricks.

This is a rectangular concrete transportation project!

How lofty!

"Be careful, don't smash your hands!"

Luo Ze was also very helpless, he wanted to come by himself and let Jun Qianqian sit on the side to supervise the work, but he didn't understand what she said, so he could only wait for her to demonstrate it first.

"Building a wall feels like building blocks, haha."

The exterior walls must be thick, the bricks are staggered horizontally and vertically, and each layer is plastered with clay to connect and reinforce, and the roof wall only needs one layer of bricks to stagger.

In addition to partitions, the wall connecting the stove also serves as a heating function, so it should also be made hollow.

"We light a fire on the stove side, and the smoke runs down the hollow wall, so that the wall heats up and the house warms up."

Jun Qianqian simply set up a corner, and Luo Ze, who was unsuccessful in learning ability, immediately took over her work, and at this time, the people in the tribe also got up, and they surrounded the construction site, eager to help.

"After going around in a circle, the smoke will run away from the chimney so that it won't be poisoned!"

The children sat next to Jun Qianqian as if they were in class, and she couldn't intervene at all now, so she simply sat aside and coaxed the children.

"Wow!"

"That's amazing! With a chimney, you don't have to open the door, right? ”

"So that the cold wind of winter can't get in!"

A few people can still remember that when Jun Qianqian first brought the fire back, he said that he couldn't light a fire in the sealed cave, otherwise he would poison people.

Now there's finally a better solution!

"This is a brick house?"

"The brick house is amazing! It's warm and it controls the flames! ”

Winter is a long nightmare for any tribe.

All year round, you are either spending the winter or preparing for the winter, and the other three seasons are completely unprepared.

The use of fire has greatly increased the confidence of the Purple Flower people, and if the brick house is built, everyone will no longer have to be afraid of winter!

Jun Qianqian can't describe everyone's enthusiasm, a small brick house, how can it use a construction team of more than 30 people, if it hadn't accidentally collapsed once when building the ondol, they could have completed it faster!

"Awesome, awesome......"

Jun Qianqian looked at the neat walls of her house, and admired the five bodies to the ground.

If it weren't for the time it would take for the walls to dry completely, she believed that the people would have given her a show on the spot to make a tall building rise from the ground.

That night, the unfinished house stood alone in the darkness, and the sparse stars twinkled in the sky.

The blue-purple brick-covered house looks like an exotic feeling, and this color matches the name of the purple flower tribe very well.

"By the way, what kind of flower is the purple flower of the Purple Flower Tribe?"

Jun Qianqian suddenly asked, the way these tribes are named is very straightforward, basically whatever is nearby, but she doesn't seem to have seen purple flowers around.

"Purple flowers only bloom in spring and are scented."

Luo Ze was a little sorry, Jun Qianqian had missed the flowering period when she came, and those flowers bloomed very brilliantly in the spring.
