"Andrew, I borrow an axe and a hoe."

Lawrence asked Andrew to borrow tools, and an axe would take more than a dozen chickens to get it.

I don't have any extra money to buy an axe at the moment, maybe I'll have something on hand to exchange money when spring comes.

Andrew said boldly: "Use it casually, you take the sheep to the mountains to find something to eat, and come back together in the evening." ”

Lawrence knew it was taking care of himself and said gratefully, "Okay, thank you Andrew." ”

Andrew was pleased, "I'm going to check the roof and chimney today, and I'll help you after these two days." ”

"Good!"

Lawrence knew that Andrew's family would inspect places such as granaries and house cellars before winter to make sure they had a warm winter.

After getting the tools from the house, Lawrence went to the sheepfold to lead a domestic sheep.

These domes are smaller than horses, and there are no horses in this world, so if you compare them to large mounts such as wild boars and camels, domes are considered small to medium-sized mounts.

The king of the kingdom of Loffin had an army of wild boars, and the barbarians of the plains riding large wild boars rushed down the hillside, and under the brute force of the wild boars, those border villages and herders would soon become the ghosts of the wild boars.

Dom sheep can also be used in Legion Combat, and all mounts in this world are used in Legion Combat, and most of them are only suitable for small scales.

The wild boar army will run around casually when it charges, and often stops after rushing for more than ten meters, so it can't run fast.

Endurance and obedience are the basic conditions, and take precedence over the mount's own combat effectiveness.

There is currently no better mount than a horse, and there are many alternatives, but none of them are that perfect.

The advantage of the boar army is that it is a strong deterrent, and with the combination of wild boars and barbarians, the serf peasants in front of them do not have the courage to stay and resist.

The disadvantage is that when you are obedient, it is only for a while, and after a long time, it is easy to expose all kinds of problems, and it can only be used for robbery and surrounding.

Grumpy wild boars will surround each other when they see strange creatures, and this wildness is a plus when it comes to robbery.

Dom sheep do not have this wild nature, and they are more timid and stupid than large wild boars.

Although the goat is large, it has a bad memory, and can only remember a few commands simply, and even the left and right and forward stops must be repeated often, otherwise it will not be long before it is completely forgotten.

The advantage is that most of the time it is very docile, it will not take the initiative to attack people, and women and children can also control it in winter, can help transport some goods, and can also pull carts.

Lawrence led the goat up the hill and pondered about the goat and the horse.

"People can tame horses, and from many, many horses have left behind the wisest horses, and after thousands of years of domestication, the smartest parts have gradually been left."

"Dom sheep do not have this opportunity to be domesticated, there are very few goats of this kind, and they will be used for both good and bad ones, and there is not enough room for selection."

"It's the same with the people here in the Northland, it's hard to grow up when they're short, and those who can survive are those who have been strong since childhood and take the initiative to fight."

"The ice barbarians in the north and the ice sea are selected by the environment and society, but the cattle and sheep here have not been screened, because everyone has no extra choice, and if they have the ability, they will feed all the cattle and sheep."

"The chickens, ducks, cows and sheep raised by humans are not much different from each other."

"On the contrary, the competition of human beings themselves is more cruel, and the strong people who survive are the first, and all families will concentrate their resources on those powerful men, even the villages."

Lawrence thought of the strong Andrew.

"I'm attached to Andrew now, and Andrew treats me very well, but Sariel doesn't take a fancy to me, and it's not a way for me to stay forever."

"Alas!"

Lawrence thinks about his own business, and standing on his own under Andrew's protection is what he has to do in the past few years.

"The things to be done are there, and the goals are already there."

"Well fed! Sleep well! Well played! I want to have these three good! ”

"Eating well is eating well, not only can I eat meat every day, but I also have to eat well, every meal is delicious food!"

"To sleep well is to build a comfortable house, to have a big house, I don't want to be crowded with my siblings or livestock, and I don't want to sleep with people who are covered in sweat and armpits, I'm really fed up!"

Lawrence was very angry, and in the years he came to this world, he endured torture every day.

Torture does not come from oppression, but from memories of the past.

The comfortable life of the Earth period, and his own recognition as a time-traveler, made Lawrence unable to endure those seemingly ordinary things.

Especially yesterday, the men and children in Emma's house were huddled on the same floor, and all kinds of snoring and stenching in the middle of the night made Lawrence feel like he was back on the farm.

This sense of rejection made Lawrence rather endure a few more days of toil than have his own home as soon as possible!

Having a good time is to relax your mind after being well fed and clothed, and slowly manage your own and Sophia's small family.

Plenty of motivation, as well as plenty of food to replenish these days, got Lawrence to work with high spirits.

The first is to destroy the bark and branches of several trees, on the one hand, to kill the pine trees first for felling, and on the other hand, to reserve fuel.

"There must be a lot of wood to build the shed, so do the math."

Lawrence had the Dom sheep graze in place, while he counted the approximate amount of wood under the tree.

"Make a wall out of logs pressed against each other, and fill them with mud and grass slurry, and make a one-meter-high kennel so that you can make it in one day, and then build a larger dwelling nearby."

Lawrence stood for three minutes and had a rough idea of how to build the shack and the general materials he would need.

"The roof of the shed is made of sword grass, so that it can be used as a material when it is dismantled later, and the wood of the shack can also be used as firewood after the new house is almost finished, or it can be converted into a pig's coop."

Sword Leaf Grass doesn't run, and there are other alternatives, so Lawrence collects wood first.

This is not easy, many of the branches of wood on the mountain are bent, and only one or two out of ten trees have straight branches.

Trees that are too big to cut down, and many small trees that have not been pruned grow freely, which are only suitable for firewood.

Fortunately, there were enough trees here, and with the help of an axe, more than a dozen crossbars were collected in one morning.

The large ones are two and a half meters long, and the short ones are one and a half meters long, and they are all ten centimeters in diameter.

The branches on it can also be used as walls, and a few sticks are needed to be fixed to the ground to make a windbreak.

Like a homeless man, Lawrence soon set up his own temporary shelter next to the trees.

This is a simple sloping hut made of wood and branches.

The shack is very simple, with a wall of wood six or seven meters high on one side, sloping branches on the other, a large tree on one end, and a doorway facing the hillside at the other.

"This place can only be used for a few days, or for shelter from the wind and rain, I want to build a wooden house as soon as possible!"

Lawrence thought about it with a frown, and soon realized that he didn't have enough time and materials.

"I can't destroy this grove before spring comes, if I can build a three-meter-long and two-meter-wide cabin in this wood, then time should be enough."

"It's certainly not sturdy, but the terrain here is very good, the snow doesn't pile up too much, and I can push the snow down the hillside, and the woods and slopes can keep out the cold wind and snow to a certain extent."

After spending eight hours building the first settlement, Lawrence quickly hatched plans for a second settlement.
