The harvest of the food group was very large, we caught more six-legged crabs, giant barnacles and turtle shells, which is the premise that I repeatedly remind everyone not to overcollect. Since these seafood are everywhere on the beach, you should eat as much as you want every day. And in my experience, seafood should be eaten with other foods, and even if you eat a good meal, your stomach will eat badly. Everyone also accepted my suggestion, and everyone didn't eat much seafood for the first meal.

Compared with the bumper harvest of the food group, Luo Yuxiang, who built the house, made his progress quite slowly. After the food group finishes work, I'll take a look at the progress so far. The site where the house was built was roughly weeded and leveled, and a tree was cut down, and the stem was cut into two or three meters long stumps, and Lao Luo and the others were sharpening these stakes with Qingshuang at this time, and I didn't understand what they were going to do at once.

"Lao Luo, what are you doing with these stakes?" I asked, looking at the seven or eight stakes that had already been processed.

"Make the stake foundation for the house!" Luo Yuxiang glanced at me, as if to say that you don't know this.

"Oh, you're going to put two or three under each pillar in a house?" I told Luo Yuxiang before that the first house didn't need to be too big, six meters wide and seven meters long. Each house has four columns, two floors, and a floor height of about 3 meters is fine.

"yes!" Luo Yuxiang walked over to me, looked around at the surrounding vegetation and said, "The stake is basically done, but there is a problem, what tool to use to drive the stake down?" ”

I was stunned, but I hadn't thought of this question before. Luo Yuxiang is right, the importance of the foundation to the house is self-evident, generally in the jungle is to lay a few wooden stakes as columns. With the columns, it was made into a stilted building, but now there are no tools, and driving wooden stakes has become a big problem.

This question seemed to stump everyone, and Carter and Toom, who were cutting the stakes, also stopped what they were doing and looked at Luo Yuxiang and me together. It is indeed a big problem to drive wooden piles without modern tools, and if this problem is not solved, it will be a big blow to everyone's enthusiasm for building houses.

I sat on the felled stake and looked at the trees around me, which were probably not tall because of the strong winds, and a few of them swooped to the ground, their roots exposed. The height of the tree is about ten meters, the short ten meters is less, the branch point of the tree is generally between two-thirds and one-half of the height of the tree, leaving a large number of neat and straight trunks below, these trees are good timber! Looking at the shrewd trunks and petite canopies below, I suddenly had an idea.

"Lao Luo, you don't have to worry about piling, just find a ready-made one." I jumped up with excitement, excited about the idea of my own genius.

Luo Yuxiang was also looking down and thinking at this time, and when he heard me say this, he raised his head and said strangely: "Where is there any ready-made?" ”

I kicked the tree pole: "Isn't this ready-made!" ”

Luo Yuxiang's eyebrows sank, and he didn't know what I said: "You say more details." ”

"Actually, we don't have to drive stakes at all." I smiled and said, "We are digging the stakes to find the foundation for the columns, but we just need to find the right pillars now." ”

Everyone was attracted by my remarks, and all eyes were on me.

"Jingtian, you don't want to sell Guanzi, to put it bluntly." Hongyin said a little anxiously.

I smiled and kicked the tree pole next to me: "The branches of the trees here are quite high, in fact, they are the natural pillars of the house, let's pick a few suitable trees as pillars and cut down the rest of the trees next to it." The cut trees are processed on the spot, or made into house frame beams or wall panels. The crown of the tree left as a pillar can be cut off, but it can also be left partially sheltered from the wind and rain. If you cut it down, just leave the main pole as a column, and leave part of the canopy is actually good, because the roof is also to be built, and it is more natural to leave the whole house in the canopy. I believe it will be very interesting and flavorful when it is made. “

"Great idea!" Carter exclaimed, "Young man is a good brain, we old fellows can build ships, but we don't have any inspiration for other things, it seems that you don't want to look for any food in the future, just stay here and build a house." "I was a little embarrassed to be liked, and he laughed a few times.

My idea was unanimously approved by everyone, and Luo Yuxiang was still annoyed that he hadn't thought of this method just now, and he had to do his best to cut the stake. But I told him that the stake was still used. It is believed that there will be more wild animals here, and these wooden stakes can be dug and buried in the trap to kill prey, and can also be used as a protective fence.

We chose the flattest woodland and started building a house. There are more than a dozen trees in this cluster, and Lao Luo and I took a few turns and decided to choose six of them as pillars, and the others should be cut down in principle. It was easy for us to choose six trees with straight branches and moderate thickness. These six trees have a DBH of about 30 centimeters, and they form a natural rectangle of 6 by 8 meters, with branches of about 7 meters, which is tall enough for us to build a two-story house. Everyone decided to build one first, and build a few more after gaining experience. With this house as the center, I also thought about creating a natural garden, so I didn't plan to cut down a few trees next to the house, so it would be interesting to keep them. After discussing the overall situation, the sky was getting dark, so everyone prepared to work hard tomorrow.

The next day, the group sang and walked towards the woodland, where we first cleared the branches of the six trees. For the low branches, I cut them off with a sword of green frost. At this time, the results of my sword training at Celta and Sufon were reflected. I can cleanly cut off the whole branch at the bottom of each branch, and the fracture is also very neat, neither hurting the main stem nor leaving any residual branches. Carter's axe-wielding branches are not so clean, often cutting the main rod and often leaving stumps for me to repair. They were stunned when they watched Carter.

The six natural wooden columns were quickly processed, and we began to prepare the beams and slabs. The beams and slabs were taken from the other trees, and because the Qingshuang Sword was so easy to use, the task of cutting the trees was handed over to me. Twenty or thirty centimeter trees can be solved with a cross-cut, and then thicker trees will be crossed first and then turned around. Soon we cut down all the trees that should have been cut down on the side of the house.

We cut off the branches of the trees as usual, and I cut them into sections of the right length. In this way, we rough-processed a total of 12 large logs, which were used to make the beams of the house, six on each floor. The surface of the beams was only flattened on one side, and this was left to me, and I held the handle of the sword in one hand and the blade tightly in the other, and Qingshuang cut one side of the beam into a twenty-centimeter-wide plane like a planer.

Others were not idle, some clearing and removing the severed branches, gradually clearing out a site for construction. Everyone started working on this field. Tum and Lao Luo sighed with their saws and sawed back and forth the other branches, their eyes staring at the green frost and the light. Although Qingshuang is very useful, you can't let it do everything, and the days are still long! Use it less if you can! The felled trees were piled up next to them, and Minenfaraire and Hongyin chopped the twigs with small axes, and the twigs were cut down and prepared to be woven into wall and floor slabs, and the ladies who were tied and arranged were more adept. Fortunately, there are still quite a lot of ropes on the spaceship, which also saves us a lot of effort.

Everyone is very motivated. The ladies didn't complain about the heavy woodwork, and after a tiresome life waiting in space, I felt very good about the solid land under my feet.

After the twelve beams are initially machined, they are then firmly attached to the tree poles. This part is very important, if it is not fixed well, the whole house will be unstable. Although there are no fixed tools such as nails, I have already thought of a way, and many ancient buildings in East Asia on the earth are made of wood, and they are basically built without nails but with falcons. This time we are using this method as well.

I carefully pierced the tree pole with the green frost, dug out the tree hole about 10 centimeters wide and 25 centimeters high, and then processed the two ends of the beam, which was smaller than the tree hole in size, so that it was easy to install. After the processing was completed, everyone worked together, and it was not easy to install a beam. With the experience of the first one, the installation of the second one is more convenient. After much effort, all twelve beams were finally installed in place before sunset.

"Ahh Everyone looked at the installed frame of the house and couldn't help but shout with joy. Now that the frame is complete, people's motivation is rising again, and the six canopies at the top of the frame are swaying slightly, as if to praise our creativity.

In the next few days, everyone continued to build the house, and everyone mainly smoothed the surface of the cut wood. The machined ones will be used as floor slabs and wall panels. After a few days, the house already has a rough appearance. The two-layer floor of the house was first paved, and the wall panels were also being made rhythmically, but with the acceleration of the progress, our requirements for the wall panels are getting higher and higher. The earliest ones were either discarded or re-disassembled.

Layers of wall panels were erected, and the appearance of the house became more and more complete. The naturally growing canopy has also been trimmed a lot to match most people's aesthetics.

After three days, the house was finally almost completely completed. It is a two-storey, flat-roofed cabin nestled under six large trees, as if it were born naturally. Everyone who sees this very creative and natural house will praise me, and I am a little embarrassed to praise it. The captain was also very pleased with the house and named it the Tree House. Except for a few trees, the rest of the weeds around the tree house have been thoroughly cleared by us, revealing the black soil, and Song Mingsheng plans to plant something here. A path to the sea was gradually formed, and for the past two days we have been provided with extra food mainly by the sea.
