204 Consumed
After the original house was burned to the ground, Tang Guoguo had already made a lot of finished wooden planks.
She picked up the planks and set out to start building a simple house as usual.
In the houses where the elderly civilization is popular, the production process is extremely simple.
All you need to do is set the corresponding planks in the correct position.
The whole process uses a mortise and tenon structure, which does not require the use of a single nail.
In half a day's work, an ordinary person can build a house suitable for living in accordance with the style in his memory.
But she was just about to start construction when Rhodes immediately stopped her.
"Guoguo, wait a minute."
"Huh?" Tang Guoguo looked at Rod a little strangely.
She didn't understand, what should she wait for if she didn't hurry up and repair the house now?
Rhodes said directly: "I don't want to build the house from before, I want to change to a better style." ”
Tang Guoguo asked, "Wouldn't that delay a lot of time?" ”
Rod laughed, "Let me ask you first, would you choose to cook every day because it takes a lot of time to read the recipes?" ”
Tang Guoguo thought for a while and said, "No, although it takes a lot of time to read the recipe, you can use it forever if you learn it." ”
So Rod answered:
"That's right, since there are conditions, it is best to provide yourself and your family with a relatively comfortable place.
When we build a beautiful house, it is also a one-time effort and a lifetime of enjoyment.
Because the living is comfortable, the mood will be much better every day, and the motivation to study will also be enhanced. ”
Tang Guoguo was stunned: "There is still such a statement?" ”
Rhodes nodded: "There must be such a statement!" ”
Tang Guoguo was skeptical, but out of trust in her husband, she still handed the wooden board in her hand to Rod.
Rod picked up the plank, and began to build according to his own ideas, and asked Tang Guoguo to help him with it.
Rhodes did not do this without purpose.
Because he needs to pretend, he needs to attract the attention of the people around him.
His own talent is only in the middle of the man.
With so many extremely talented people in the same period, he doesn't necessarily stand out with his talent.
If you want to gain military merit, official position, and even access to more civilized knowledge than the elders as soon as possible, you must take shortcuts.
And one of the shortcuts is to spread the fame of his talent to the public.
I have a few worlds of accumulation, so why don't you show some of them at this time?
Even if the number of abilities he has not had at that time, he was able to create some abilities that had never been seen in the elder civilization, so how could you say that his talent was not strong? He's a partiality at best!
The new architectural style, which is clearly different from its surroundings, is the first step for him to show his abilities.
Both Rod and Tang Guoguo have countless abilities, so they can process wood extremely quickly.
So it only took a day's work, and this building full of antique and antique courtyards in the south of the Yangtze River took shape.
In addition, Rhodes also carved many formations on the building.
These formations can absorb the aura that is free in the world, and constantly strengthen the building itself.
As time progresses, these buildings will not only not be eroded and collapsed by wind and rain, but will become more and more rigid.
After the portrayal, Rhodes stood in front of the house sweating profusely, with a happy face.
I have this unique technology, can't I take you again?
At this time, Tang Guoguo had already begun to spread joy in the house.
She started by strolling around the chic garden.
It is full of trees and flowers transplanted by Rhodes from the surrounding area.
She went to look at the pond that Rhodes had carved out again.
In the pond, some miscellaneous swimming fish are happily shuttling between the rockery and the cracks of the stones.
After Tang Guoguo had fun for a while, he rushed into the house again.
The furniture inside is very reasonable, and just from the outside, it will make people feel extremely warm.
Tang Guoguo saw the furnishings for the first time, and felt that this was what a home should look like.
In addition, there are many new appliances in this new home.
These appliances are powered by solar panels placed on the roof.
As soon as the lights were turned on, the swan-shaped hollow glass hanging lamps immediately emitted a pale yellow light, which filled the entire room in an instant.
Night.
Rod sat on the sofa, and Tang Guoguo shrank in Rode's arms.
She looked at Rod with adoration: "You are so amazing! ”
Rod laughed, "Are you saying that I'm so good?" ”
Tang Guoguo's face flushed, and he twisted: "You are powerful everywhere!" ”
Rod bent his lips and smiled: "Then I have to give you something to taste!" ”
So Rod immediately turned over and sat up, standing on the edge of the sofa, and Tang Guoguo had already crawled over obediently.
Just as Rhodes was standing in front of Tang Guoguo, about to give her a taste of the power, he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door outside.
"Is anyone home?"
Tang Guoguo, who was still kneeling on the ground, hurriedly got up from the ground when he heard the sound.
Rhodes straightened his shirt and walked towards the door.
He opened the door.
found that the person standing outside the door was the chubby Cao Lie.
"Yo, why are you here?" Rod asked.
Cao Lie smiled and said, "It turned out to be you!" I just built my own house not far from you, and I saw that your building here seems a little unusual, so I came over to take a look. ”
Rod invited, "Then don't stand outside the door, come in and sit." ”
Cao Lie followed Rhodes into the door.
Cao Lie, who had just entered the house, was attracted by the furnishings in the house.
"Wow! You're doing a great job here, aren't you? ”
He looked around in shock.
Tang Guoguo hurriedly showed off: "It's not bad, right?" Everything here is designed by Yusheng! ”
She hugged Rod's arm with a happy face.
Cao Lie nodded and said, "It's really good, you guys just spent a day's work?" ”
Before Rod could speak, Tang Guoguo replied, "Yes! This is the little home that the two of us have worked together to build. ”
Cao Lie approvingly: "I really envy you, and it's so good." ”
Rod took the opportunity to say: "If you want, you can also exchange knowledge." ”
For the trading of knowledge, Cao Lie was not surprised.
So Cao Lie said: "Okay, I have some brand new versions here that you have never seen before, just watch it for three minutes, and you will definitely fall in love with this knowledge." ”
Rhodes spread his hands: "Then take it!" ”
After the two finished trading, Rod invited Cao Lie to dinner.
Cuisines from all over the world fill the table.
The dry ice in the raw cut cane flakes (a kind of seafood) is constantly bubbling white, making the whole table very meaningful.
Rod raised his glass and said, "Come on, let's fill this cup!" ”
Cao Lie drank all the liquid in the cup in one gulp, and immediately suffered a dry cough from the spicy.
He clutched his throat and said, "What is this?" ”
Rhodes replied, "It's wine!" ”
"Wine?" Cao Lie sniffed again.
The liquid in the cup was filled with the aroma of food, and little by little it entered his nostrils.
He couldn't help but smash it.
He found that although the wine was slightly spicy in the mouth, after drinking it, his whole body was warm.
And there is a feeling of gradually fluttering in the body, which is really wonderful!
Seeing Cao Lie's somewhat erratic appearance, Rod couldn't help but shake his head.
What he took out this time was only more than ten degrees of rice wine.
But even if it's just this degree, it already makes Cao Lie, who has never drunk alcohol, feel a little unbearable.
Cao Lie maintains a high level of acceptance of new things.
In his opinion, Chu Yusheng and Tang Guoguo would not harm themselves, so they began to drink in small sips again.
As the liquid entered his stomach little by little, the indescribable wonder slowly came to his heart.
Rod advised: "Don't patronize and drink! Try my newly developed dishes as well. ”
"Good!" Chubby began to taste the various dishes placed in front of him.
He found that each of these dishes was extremely delicious.
Eating a few bites of food and drinking a sip of wine is simply a great thing in life!
He exclaimed, "Elegant! What a noble life you have had! ”
Tang Guoguo replied with a smile: "How can there be, we haven't had time to prepare, it's all some home-cooked food, you can just eat a little, don't mind if the hospitality is not good!" ”
Looking at the dishes on the table, Cao Lie was a little speechless.
That's what you mean by casual eating? Still not well entertained?
What kind of family are yours! You can eat so well as you can eat casually?
I only eat one dish every night!
These are estimated to be enough for more than a dozen people to eat with open arms, okay?
Fortunately, there is no need to cultivate food in this world, so there is no such thing as wasting food.
So Cao Lie threw off his arms and ate a big belly.
By the time he left Rod's house, he already had to hold on to the wall with one hand and his waist with the other.
Tang Guoguo hummed the song that Rhodes taught her, and cleaned up the leftovers of the three of them.
Rhodes, who sent Cao Lie to the door, always maintained a faint smile like a friend on his face.
He silently watched Cao Lie's figure and watched him go away.
It wasn't until Cao Lie's back had disappeared into the night that Rod entered the house.
Rod made some tea and some desserts, and the two sat in the courtyard and tasted tea at night.
The sky, though completely covered by night.
But countless bright and very close stars still hang high in the night sky.
The whole sky, showing a colorful black, still looks quite amazing.
Tang Guoguo sat by himself for a while, as if he didn't want to sit alone, so he got into Rod's arms.
She was like a kitten, constantly sniffing Rhodes's body, and she didn't know what she was smelling.
The two of them stayed quietly, as if it were calm before a fierce battle.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Tang Guoguo to start inviting Rod warmly and hurriedly entered the house to communicate.
After a fierce battle, the two fell asleep deeply.
Early the next morning, Rhodes was woken up by a hectic knock on the door.
Tang Guoguo frowned when he heard this, turned over the quilt and continued to sleep.
And Rod, who heard the movement, got up and dressed.
As soon as he opened the door, he found that there were many people standing outside the door.
A glance reveals that these people are all people from the same planet as themselves.
What are they doing here?
Seeing that the battle was so big, Rod smiled and said, "Yo, what's this?" So many people came early in the morning? ”
Cao Lie said: "They are all here to exchange books with you. ”
"Is that so? Then I would welcome it! ”
So Rod led them in.
The group followed Rhodes through the corridor and into the nearby courtyard.
The sofa at home is too small, and this is the only place that can accommodate so much at once.
With a smile on his face, Rod warmly welcomed everyone to their seats, but he felt that something was wrong in his heart.
Because he knows.
Although the purpose of making this set of things is to attract the attention of others.
But he didn't think that these things would attract so many people right away.
This kind of episode that will attract a group of people to pursue something will only happen in the middle.
In the real world, this is not possible.
After all, people in this world are basically compromised on food, clothing, housing and transportation.
It is impossible to rush over and change it just because you have a set of buildings with unique shapes.
There must be other reasons for this.
But Rhodes doesn't need to point it out directly.
Because since these people are here, sooner or later they will speak for themselves.
So Rod sat down in the yard chatting with them as if nothing had happened.
These people don't even know how to pretend.
They came here, nominally to exchange books.
But so many people came here, and no one talked about the exchange for a long time, and they were talking about some things all the time.
Since this is the case, then everyone will consume it.
Even if most of them come with some kind of idea, as long as they can afford it and consume it to the end, then the initiative is on their side.
So, Rod asked, "You haven't eaten breakfast yet, have you?" ”
Seeing that everyone shook their heads, Rod immediately invited them to eat Cantonese morning tea.
A dazzling and unique array of dishes appeared on the table one by one.
Shrimp dumplings, honey sauce barbecued pork buns, dry steamed siu mai, egg tarts, quicksand buns, chicken feet, beef balls, red rice sausages, glutinous rice chicken, money belly radish cake.
Dozens of different styles of things, the crowd watching was dumbfounded.
Rod looked at everyone looking at each other and refusing to make a move, and wondered, "What's wrong?" Eat them all! ”
"Ahh Eat, eat, eat! ”
Cao Lie immediately greeted everyone.
The crowd began to pick up the food on the table.
However, Rhodes, who carefully observed everyone, found that the communication of these people was extremely unprofessional.
In front of an outsider, they were still making eye contact with each other, and they didn't even have a weird expression on their faces.
That's all it takes? What the hell are you trying to do?
Under Rod's enthusiastic persuasion to eat and drink, in the face of endless morning tea, these people directly ate it.
Seeing that everyone was reluctant to explain their intentions after eating morning tea, Rod began to pull them to chat again.
Rhodes has traveled so many worlds and has a wealth of experience and insight, so he has a lot to talk to them about.
In the middle of the chat, the melon and fruit drinks were never interrupted.
Rod greeted everyone warmly, even in the face of more than a dozen people, Rod did not snub anyone.
The crowd remained at a stalemate until noon.
At noon, Rhodes entertained everyone to eat a feast based on Dixingchuan cuisine, supplemented by dishes from other worlds.
The bellies of the people, who had not yet been digested, were filled with Rod's hospitality.
The afternoon chat time passed quickly.
In a blink of an eye, it was time for dinner again.
Rod said, "How about we have a roast feast tonight?" ”
Hearing that Rhodes was going to treat him again, Cao Lie's expression was a little painful.
And Rhodes was even more speechless.
Is there something you can't just say?
You people care so much about time, how can you bear to waste an entire day and waste yourself?
What the hell are you thinking?
