Li Xiao is still at ease with the fifth master, he has been in Liaoyang City for so many years, but he is not in vain. If you want to be the boss, you can't just be ruthless. Leave a boat for the fifth master, and the rest of the people squeeze back to Phi Dao.

Life on the island is the same as ever, but there seems to be some undercurrents surging underneath the ordinary. Li Xiao arranged for the new arrivals of more than 500 people to live at the foot of the mountain, and transferred the musket team to live with them.

Now that it's May, Li Xiao feels that he should build a house. After all, this is on an island, and it is not a matter of living in a wooden and thatched house. Not to mention dampness, in winter, it's fucking sour. Last winter, many people got frostbitten on their hands and feet. Xiaoyu's two small hands are swollen like two pig's trotters. This year, Li Xiao doesn't want everyone to suffer this crime.

Wang Laosan, the leader of the masons, said that glutinous rice, water and clay were needed to build a house so that it would be strong. As a result, he was scolded by Li Xiao and bloody! Lao Tzu is building a house, not building a turret.

Return glutinous rice water, Lao Tzu will get it for you. Now how precious the food is, do you know if you know, is it easy for Lao Tzu to feed more than 2,000 mouths?

However, bricks and cement are still needed to build a house, and fortunately, these things are not difficult to find. And it's also very easy to get, Ao Canghai went to Shandong. I pulled several boats back, and now I have a big ship with 3,000 materials, but it's different. It took three days to unload the ship.

If you want to build a house, you must first build a kiln. Li Xiao found a natural cave on the island, which is a very good natural kiln.

Limestone, clay, iron powder, fluorite, and gypsum were placed in the fire and burned fiercely for three days, and when the kiln was opened, it was cold for a long time before daring to enter. The burned stuff was crushed and watered, and it dried up in less than a night.

It's just that the problem of marking is not easy to grasp, and it took several kilns to get it.

The cement thing is not easy to handle, but the brick is very easy to solve. Wang Laosan, the leader of the bricklayers, would burn bricks, drag the blanks with people and then burn the kiln. Within a few days, a lot of bricks were burned.

The matter of bricks and cement is solved, and you can build a house. Zhao Tiezhu's skill in drawing the wire is still not progressing, and the steel wire drawn out is thicker than the thumb. However, this thing is just right to be used as steel bar, and there are no reinforced concrete buildings in these years. The house built by Phi Dao is the first part of the Ming Dynasty. Emperor Lao Tzu may not be able to live.

I have to say that the craftsmen of this year are still very spiritual. Porcelain is stupid and porcelain is stupid is only a few people, Wang Laosan is very smart. Li Xiao told it twice, and he could understand the drawings and argue with Li Xiao.

"Boss, it's okay for you to keep the door bigger. But the windows can't be left so big, this half of the wall is almost all windows, and the air leaks in winter. Besides, with such a large window, you will also waste paper when you paste it. Wang Laosan, as a person who came over, persuaded Li Xiao bitterly.

"Whatever you want to cover, you can cover Lao Tzu how you want. Look, it's a two-story building. Don't fucking look at it backwards, dig a cellar for Lao Tzu to come out. This layer is the foundation, and you have to leave the drainage ditch for Lao Tzu. Yes, stay on the other side of the cliff. Li Xiao was so angry that he kicked Wang Laosan. You old boy knows a fart, Lao Tzu, this standard tube building. Later generations were known for the smallest area and the largest number of people living in the world.

The drainage ditch that Li Xiao flowed out was enough to walk into a big living person. This has to be explained to the rammers, and it would be bad if it was used as a cellar.

The drainage ditch was dug all the way to the cliff, and in the future, the island's domestic sewage will flow down the cliff directly into the sea.

hit the boss's big feet, Wang Laosan couldn't help it. I can only sigh and build according to the drawings, which looks very aggrieved.

The problem of the house is arranged, and the rest is the glass thing. I have long thought about burning glass, but now that the house has been built and the windows are left, how can I do it without glass.

The process of burning glass is actually not complicated, quartz sand, soda ash, calcite, limestone are not difficult to get. It's just that the firing temperature is a little difficult, and I have to go to Shandong again for this Ao Canghai. After pulling two large ships of coal back, Li Xiao spread out the two large ships of coal and burned them into coke, so that there was enough kiln temperature to turn these stones into valuable glass.

In the Hereafter, the process would be simple. Either oil or electricity, but Li Xiao couldn't help it. Only by continuously adding coke can the kiln temperature be increased to more than 1,200 degrees. Because it is only at this temperature that glass can be refined.

I studied it for more than a month, and failed more than a dozen times before I could figure out the glass. After the glass is fired, it is Zhao Tiezhu's work. He was responsible for driving the glass into pieces inside the model, and after solidifying, it became piece by piece of glass.

But to be exact, this thing should be called a glass brick. There is no way, Zhao Tiezhu's craftsmanship is like this. The glasses with a finger's thickness were stacked neatly one by one, so that Li Xiao could raise a piece with his two hands and look at the sun. The light transmittance is a bit poor, and it is estimated that the material is not pure, but it is much better than the paper paste window.

Seeing the glass being burned out, Wang Laosan's jaw was about to fall to the ground. I've never seen a window made of glass in my life. How much money does this get! In his most extravagant imagination, he didn't dare to think of using glass as a window.

Carrying heavy glass bricks, Li Xiao felt that this thing could also be used. After all, this is an island, and the house is in the mountains, and the sea breeze is very strong. A little heavier can withstand stronger typhoons, and you don't have to worry about breaking glass during typhoons and hurting people.

Dao Fuyou held his hands and leisurely watched Li Xiao busy with his work, whether it was cement or glass. He was preoccupied with watching and now that his grandson had returned to him. Although he couldn't leave the island, the old guy was happy and didn't seem to have any intention of returning to Japan.

However, Li Xiao made a lot of calculations, but something went wrong. When I put on the glass, I found that the window was left in the wrong size. However, Wang Laosan quickly solved this problem with cement, and two months was enough time for him to use cement perfectly.

Fortunately, Wang Laosan solved this problem, because now Li Xiao really can't find a diamond to cut glass. He could only get the red-hot glass into a model and make a glass brick of the same size.

After three months of hard work, the three silos were finally repaired. The tube building has just been built, and the glass has just been finished. Before the door could be installed, the sky became overcast.

Everything that could be moved was moved to the building, and everyone hid inside like quails. A blue bolt of lightning in the sky plunged into the sea like a fork.

The huge energy immediately struck the water vapor, and the sky and the earth seemed to be darkened all of a sudden. At this time, the sea surface is like hell, the waves are surging, purple thunder and lightning keep hitting the sea, rising puffs of white smoke, torrential rain, pouring down.

The power of heaven and earth was exerted to the extreme in an instant!

Through the glass, everyone saw that the wood-paneled house and thatched house they lived in were suddenly torn apart by the strong wind, turning into a pile of unrelated fragments flying in the sky.

No one dared to imagine what would happen if they stayed in it at this time. It's no wonder that in the past few months, the big bosses have been urging everyone to build buildings.

"Big brother! Won't our house be blown away by the wind? Xiaoyu snuggled in Li Xiao's arms, watched the wind raging outside, and drilled her head into Li Xiao's arms with some concern.

"Don't worry, it won't. The house built by the eldest brother is very strong! Li Xiao patted Xiaoyu on the back and comforted softly.

Li Hao hugged Li Hu and also wanted to seek comfort. was kicked out by Li Hu!

"Desna! Grant Desna! ”

"Xiaoyu! In the future, don't let Xiaobai play with the children of the Inafuyou family, it's easy to learn badly. ”

"Hmm!"
