As soon as it was dawn, Lawrence walked out of the cabin.

Andrew was cooking, and Saliel was tending to the Dom sheep and a few goats and sheep.

Apart from the three chickens, the only domestic animals here are sheep, and the output of these animals and the surrounding fields is enough for two people.

There is even some surplus that can be exchanged for some supplies using meat and grain to go down the mountain.

Lawrence saw that Saliel had just come out of the sheepfold, so he said to Sariel, "I'll go out for a walk and I'll be back in the afternoon." ”

Sophia quickly ran out of the house, "Master, I'm with you too!" ”

Lawrence quickly said: "No, you can help with something here, I haven't finished eating the food I brought before, I want to find a place to stay before I finish eating." ”

Lawrence also brought some dry biscuits, which didn't taste good, but they provided some energy in his mouth and barely survived for a few days.

"By the way, I saw a lot of pine cones in the pine forest in the mountains yesterday, can you eat them?"

Lawrence looked at Sariel, and if she could, she could have a little more to eat.

Sariel nodded, "Yes." ”

Lawrence quickly said: "Then let's go pick up some pine cones together, this one can be kept for a long time, I think there are many more!" ”

"I still have a lot of things to do, and if you put your energy elsewhere, it's much better than wasting your energy on those things." ”

The pine grove was an hour or two away, and there was nothing to eat at home, so neither Sariel nor Andrew would waste their efforts for that poor pine nut.

Here in the mountains, if you can't go out, try not to go out.

Even Andrew, who has lived in the mountains all his life, almost died in the mountains.

Those who live in the mountains should be in awe of the mountains.

Lawrence could sense Sariel's attitude and said awkwardly, "I'm out, I'll be back early today." ”

Sophia saw Lawrence go out, so she followed, "Master, remember to come back early......"

"Hmm." Lawrence waved his hand and quickly walked up the hill.

Andrew's Dom sheep were good mounts, but the two sides were not familiar with each other now, and Lawrence did not open his mouth to borrow them.

Lawrence quickly returned to the mountain, and today instead of going directly to the pine forest to check the traps, he looked at the terrain nearby.

After searching for many days, Lawrence finally found a relatively gentle mountain area after climbing a hillside.

In front of you is a meadow with an inclination of about 15 degrees, and if you can level the hill of about 20 square meters under your feet, you can get a gentle foundation that covers an area of at least 30*25.

Of course, there is another premise, that is, there are more than a dozen pine and fir trees standing in the wind, basically more than ten meters high, and it can be seen that they are still young trees.

To cut down these trees, you have to have an axe tool, and it takes a long time to process them and build a house.

"This kind of thing of building a house still has to be looked at again, and it is not too late to look at the situation here in the past few days, from the light to the wind direction, it has been reviewed and rebuilt."

Lawrence quickly looked around around the base, and there was a lake formed by standing water three hundred meters down the hillside of the hill, and another river passed nearby.

You need to fetch your own water for water, which is a bit laborious, but the distance will be much closer when irrigating, and it is actually okay if agriculture is a priority.

The nearby soil also has a lot of plants, which should also be suitable for crops.

When there is time later, you can continue to develop the surrounding wasteland.

"Maybe you can make a simple wooden hut first, cut down the trees first, build a shed between the pine trees and live in it first, and then slowly build a house?"

Lawrence had a new idea, the weather is not bad now, although the night will cool down significantly, but as long as there is a shelter from the wind and rain, and then cover it with a blanket at night, you should be able to get through.

"In ancient times, people could survive all winters in caves without cotton clothes and quilts, and it didn't make sense that I couldn't."

"There must be something to keep warm, after all, I can't count on the survival rate of the ancients, but it's a pity that I can't buy things with silver here, otherwise I can buy some daily necessities directly."

Building a house requires tools, and it definitely needs Andrew's help, and there are some things that can be done alone, but they are too inefficient.

Lawrence sighed, "You can't always trouble Andrew, it's not good to always trouble them." ”

There are so many things that are boring, and most of them are difficult to solve quickly.

Lawrence's frowning brow and depressed mood changed quickly after arriving at the pine forest.

"Bunny!!"

Lawrence looked excitedly ahead, where the trap had been set yesterday, where a fat gray rabbit was dangling from his waist and constantly swaying under the branches.

As Lawrence approached, the immobile rabbit seemed to sense something, and swayed violently.

Its body was tied to a thin root of grass, and the branches above it were constantly swaying as its fat body struggled violently.

Lawrence didn't want to let this hapless rabbit run away, in that case, he would be the unlucky one!

Hook the branch off your head with another twig and grab the struggling rabbit with your coat as it gets close to you.

Lawrence broke the rope and pinned the rabbit to the ground.

After two minutes, the rabbit with its head and mouth on the ground stopped struggling.

"Sorry man." Lawrence breathed a sigh of relief, quickly picked up some clean pine cones, and walked down the hill with the rabbit.

On the way back, Lawrence saw eagles speeding through the sky.

"Everyone is looking for food, and the eagle is looking for prey such as rabbits, foxes, and mice!"

The road that would have taken an hour or two, Lawrence walked in just over an hour, and today the pace was exceptionally light.

Before he could get close to the house, Lawrence saw Sariel and Sophia, who were watching over the flock's feeding.

Sophia was very happy to see Lawrence, and when she came over to say hello and saw the fat rabbit that Lawrence was carrying, she was even more excited.

"The hosts! You caught a rabbit?! ”

Lawrence raised the rabbit in his hand and said with a smile: "I just caught it, it was still alive when I found it, and we have rabbit meat to eat today!" ”

Sariel looked at the fat rabbit in Lawrence's hand and said, "This rabbit is so big that it can be eaten for many days as a strip of meat." ”

Lawrence nodded: "Yes!" ”

Sariel thought and said, "It should be heavy. ”

I don't know how much it is, and Sariel doesn't know the exact unit of measurement.

"Yes, when I caught it, it was so powerful, I'll ask Uncle Andrew to make a rabbit broth tonight!"

Lawrence said and walked over to the house, "I'm going to find Uncle Andrew!" ”

"Andrew! Look at! Come out and see what I've caught! A big rabbit of at least ten pounds! ”

Andrew was busy in the house, came out of the house after hearing Lawrence's cry, and soon saw the rabbit that Lawrence had lifted as well.

"Oh! Lawrence, my trap caught a rabbit, didn't it? Thank you for checking them out for me! This is the sixth rabbit I've caught! ”

Andrew was also very happy, apparently taking the rabbit as his own trophy.

Lawrence quickly stood where he was and said, "No, no, no, this rabbit was not caught in your trap, you can go and see your traps, I didn't go in the direction of that side today." ”

"This rabbit was caught by me on the other side of the pine forest, and with my hands and wisdom, you can see clearly, it has no wounds on it!"

Andrew looked skeptical, "You caught it?" Are you running faster than a rabbit? ”

Lawrence said angrily: "Of course I caught it!" ”

"I don't believe it." Andrew is usually very talkative, but at this time, on such an inconsequential matter, he disagreed with Lawrence.

Neither of them could convince the other, so they went out to check the trap.

After making sure that his trap was unsuccessful, Andrew reluctantly believed that Lawrence had caught the rabbit, and took the rabbit to cook under Lawrence's smiling gaze.

Hunting, and taking the prey home, is the romance and honor that belongs to men!

From this rabbit onwards, the idle label on Lawrence was torn off.

He is no longer a person who eats idle food, but a man who has the ability to make his family eat meat!
