Gwen beat Xu Zheng angrily, completely forgetting the dignity and reserve of the eldest lady beside her. Xu Zheng laughed and dodged around, and Ao Sen smiled: "Don't make trouble, discuss the business properly." Gwen stopped stupidly, her face still flushed.

Xu Zheng turned to Nordin and said, "The Terrans in the manor are almost gone, and almost all the rest are orc friends, so we have to count on you." It would be kinder for you to send them than I did. ”

Nordin smiled and said, "You know how powerful the orcs are. We can do things like hunting and fighting, but we can't do anything else. To do it, you just have to say it, don't dislike our slow brain, we will try to cooperate with you. ”

"Good. Xu Zheng nodded and said, "My first step is to build a factory in the manor and open a paper factory. The second step is to intend to build more houses for later generations to live in. ”

"The tent doesn't work? It's simple and convenient. Nordin chimed in.

Xu Zheng chuckled and asked, "Would you rather your compatriots live in tents for the rest of your life?" I don't have an opinion, the problem is that everyone came here with great hardship just to live a better life. In the past, tents were only temporary, but now that we have a home, it is not appropriate to live in a tent again. Since it is possible to build a house, it is necessary to create good living conditions for everyone. ”

Nordin was a little moved and smiled wryly: "You have a point." I used to live in tents all the time, and I was used to it, and when I suddenly mentioned it, I could only think of that. Xu Zheng, I thank you on behalf of my people. I know, you're genuinely good to us. ”

"Isn't it nonsense again?" Xu Zheng smiled and asked again: "What kind of living environment do orcs generally like?"

Nordin thought for a moment and said, "It doesn't seem to be too much of a requirement, just have enough sunshine and a dry place." We loved the feeling of the sun shining and the breeze blowing. ”

Xu Zheng turned his head sideways and thought about the living habits of the Tiger Clan, and suddenly remembered the stilted building of a certain ethnic group, and his heart moved. Draw it on the ground and say, "Nordin." How about coming and seeing this?"

Notting didn't understand it for a long time, scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, and said to Xu Zheng: "I don't understand it, you can tell me about it." ”

Xu Zheng pointed to the figure on the ground and said, "This kind of building is called a stilted building. Most of the building is overhanging. I refer to Tujia, Miao...... Uh, when I didn't say. Anyway, this kind of building is roughly divided into the main house and the wing room. You see, the main house was built directly on the ground, and the wing houses were built on top of the main house, with the bottom of the building hanging in the air. The advantage of this is that it keeps the house dry in the humid forest, which is very convenient for ventilation. The lower space is not only used to store things, but also to protect against dangerous creatures such as poisonous snakes and small beasts. ”

"Look at it again, on this second level, you can build an open-air platform. A corridor is built outside the platform, and a railing is built on the outermost part to protect it, so that the overall sunlight is abundant. Spacious and ventilated, it is guaranteed to avoid the uncomfortable feeling of wet fur that comes from moisture. ”

"Is it that I don't understand or what? I see that there seem to be three floors. Notting lay on the ground and looked at the picture, Xu Zheng drew something, listening to him explain it so carefully, Nordin understood seven or eight points, and felt that he liked it tightly.

Xu Zheng said: "I painted three floors, and the third layer of storage can be used by people. The top is topped with thatch or tiles. Stilted buildings are generally built with two or three floors, and the highest ones are up to five floors. ”

"I like it!" said Nordin, "just build this." Isn't it going to cost a lot of money? What is a tile?"

Xu Zheng shook his head: "This is also one of the benefits of stilted buildings, the cost is low. As for tiles, they are simpler to make, they are made of mud and are used to build roofs and shelter from the wind and rain. ”

"That's nice!" said Nordin, "it's airy, and it's sunny, so you don't get your fur stuck to your body and feel uncomfortable." Hehe, the place is also wide, and that, oh, it's called a platform, right?"

"Balcony, or terrace. ”

"Whatever it's called. Basking in the sun and blowing the wind on it, the little tigers can also run around freely, which must be very comfortable. Ha, I love it so much!"

Orson asked, "We live here too?"

Xu Zheng said: "This kind of stilted building is specially considered for fur-covered orcs, if you like it, you can also build it to live." However, according to human habits, I think it is more appropriate to build a house by quarrying stones, or burning mud to build a house. And I also promised Starbader to try to be economical and not damage the trees, and then build some stilted buildings and other types of houses, and live in whichever one you like. ”

After thinking about it, he said: "Human housing is much more troublesome, and we also have to consider drainage, water supply, underground sewage channels and so on. Oh, that's a headache! I miss Haze and Ilic, they both love to make holes, and it would be nice to have the dwarves help with the underground water and drainage system. ”

"There are dwarves in the Discord Continent. Orson said.

"Is there one?" said Xu Zhengxi.

"Yes. It's just that they all live underground and deep in the mountains, and no one knows the exact location. ”

Xu Zheng said disappointedly: "That's it...... There's no helper to be found. He turned his head to look at Abel and said, "Abel, you are the most proficient in carpenter's craft." I'll leave it to you to build the stilted building, okay? Please teach your craft to the orcs and build the stilted building. ”

Abel nodded, gestured to Xu Zheng and said, "I'm so big that I can understand it, and I'll ask you for the specific details." ”

Xu Zheng nodded, and then said: "The third is to wait for the Blue Silk Starlight Song and Dance Troupe to gain a firm foothold outside the Dragon's Throat, and we will build a stronghold there, and then open the teleportation array, I remember that the Dragon's Throat is only a hundred miles back and forth, and I think I can do this kind of distance teleportation." Just don't be too often. ”

"Will you set up a teleportation array?" Ao Sen looked at Xu Zheng in surprise.

Xu Zheng looked at him angrily and said, "This level is not difficult for me." I don't have the ability to build a long-distance teleportation array to the Eastern Continent, and this kind of teleportation within a hundred miles is not a problem. The Spirit Gathering Array in the manor was all set up by me, okay...... Besides, if it hadn't been for the study of the teleportation array, it wouldn't have been transmitted to the Western Continent in a mess. Forehead...... It's not bad to pass it on, I found you, and I met many friends. It's just that I miss those relatives and friends in the imperial capital. ”

Aosen's heart warmed slightly, and he said, "They will also think of you." ”

Xu Zheng nodded: "If my estimate is correct, the imperial capital must have already sent someone out to find me." I don't know where they are now, I don't know if we have left the Western Continent and are now settled here. ”

Orson comforted: "Son, don't worry, you will definitely see them in the near future." ”

Feeling Aosen's care, Xu Zheng smiled lightly and said, "I believe it." Well, that's all for today. That's pretty much the initial work. Captain Lansi, when are you going to leave the manor?"

Lan Si said: "Tomorrow." Leave early, prepare early. ”

Xu Zheng said: "It's okay." Notting, tomorrow you can choose some clansmen with outstanding combat skills to follow Lansi and return to the Sword Dance Troupe, just as a guard, whatever you want, remember to protect their safety. Although the power of Iwaki can't reach here, there may be other troubles, so I will work hard for you. Choose two other orcs to serve as the liaison between the manor and the stronghold to communicate back and forth, chocobos we don't need now, and you can transfer them. ”

Notting nodded yes, he was entrusted with a heavy task by Xu Zheng in this way, and he suddenly felt a little nervous, for fear that he would not do well, so he carefully kept Xu Zheng's instructions in mind.

The crowd dispersed, and Lansi prepared to go. Xu Zheng waited with Abel and Nordin for the arrival of the orcs.

In the afternoon, Ling Meimei arrived first, and Xu Zheng told her the preliminary plan. The dwarf enthusiastically agreed to help as much as he could, and to collect some building materials and tools that could be used. Sang Duoduo is very interested in Xu Zheng's stilted building, because there is a fire beast on Dwarf Island, like a mouse, it will have low-level fire magic, and it will also steal food. The stilted building is used to deal with them, which seems to be quite good, so he has been pestering Xu Zheng to learn the construction method of the stilted building.

A little later, the orcs will really come. Forty-six of them came, and among them was Elder Pelton, one of the three elders of the Tiger Clan.

Everyone met, and it was lively for a while. When relatives and friends are reunited, there are countless things to say. The little tigers are running around in the crowd looking for their parents, the friends they know are patting each other's backs and getting close, and their families are hugging each other affectionately and happily together. Xu Zheng kept smiling and watching, and felt more and more truly that the orcs just had one more orc in rhetoric, in fact, there was no difference between them and humans, and they also hoped to live a better life, with rich and sincere feelings.

Elder Pelton was not disappointed at all when he saw that the manor was now dilapidated, he kept stroking his beard and smiling happily, hugging all the clansmen enthusiastically, and saying vigorously: "It's good, it's good!"

Bi Yi has a place to take root and settle down, and he doesn't have to wander around anymore, isn't it? Although it's not good enough now, as long as he persists, it will always get better. And now that it can take root, it is much better than before. As an old orc elder who has lived for a long time, this is more deeply understood than anyone else.
