Pulling the feed back to the Zhiqing point and unloading it to the pig house, Chen Fan dragged the cart back, and then ran back, already out of breath.

After dinner, he didn't go to wash and rest, but asked Jiang Lili, "I remember that there are firewood knives here, right?" ”

Jiang Lili immediately got up, "Yes, I'll get it for you." ”

After a while, he took the firewood knife and handed it to Chen Fan, and asked curiously, "It's getting dark, what are you going to do?" ”

Chen Fan took the firewood knife and swiped it twice, feeling okay, then looked at her and said with a smile, "The straw has been used so much, I'm afraid that the firewood is not enough, go to the back to chop some firewood, and by the way, find a suitable place to make a clay kiln to burn something." ”

"Huh?"

Jiang Lili's eyes widened instantly, and she looked at him without blinking, "Kiln? ”

Chopping wood is understandable, but burning kilns, will he?

Chen Fan didn't explain much, and walked out with two swings of the firewood knife.

Jiang Lili looked at his back, her eyes were full of curiosity, she wanted to know, what else would this man not do?

It wasn't until Chen Fan went out of the courtyard wearing clogs, a shovel in one hand and a firewood knife in the other, that she came back to her senses and was busy preparing food for the group of hairy children.

It is enough for the pony and lamb to be fed some forage, the chickens can also eat the bran directly, and the puppies can eat some leftovers, but the piglets are the most troublesome, and they have to cook pig food.

However, Jiang Lili didn't worry at all, but looked forward to what the two little pigs would look like after they grew into big pigs.

……

Chen Fan walked to the back, and his eyes suddenly darkened.

The terrain, which was still somewhat familiar, was now covered with ice and snow, and only the miscellaneous trees were rooted in the ice and snow, sticking out their dry branches, which became more and more desolate.

He used a shovel as a crutch and walked along the ridge until he reached a relatively high place before stopping.

Looking around, frankly, this place is really not small.

About a hundred meters north from Zhiqing Point is the small dirt slope where the soil is taken, and when you get there, it means that this wasteland has come to an end.

As for the width, there is a ditch on the edge of the wasteland, and about 50 meters to the east is the river embankment, so the boundary line is this ditch, and from this ditch as the starting point, about 5 or 60 meters to the west is the rice field.

The area of this wasteland is almost 5 to 6,000 square meters, far exceeding the two acres of land approved by the team.

Two acres of land is 1,333 square meters, and if the width is about 25 meters according to Zhiqing Point, then the depth is 53 to 54 meters.

Of course, this is only the area of the yard, and the building land still has to follow the rules, and it cannot exceed two and a half of the land, which is 166.6 square meters.

In addition, there is room for maneuvering beyond the two acres of land.

For example, if you set aside a distance of 10 meters between your yard and the educated youth point as a passage, does that occupy an extra 5 or 600 square meters?!

Then near the rice paddies to the west, a grove was planted for him as well...... This is a wasteland, I cleared the wasteland and transformed it into a useful timber forest, the team should give me a prize, how can I be blamed?!

and behind the courtyard and on the east side, trees were also planted,......

That's right, Chen Fan has now made up his mind to occupy this piece of land of more than 5,000 square meters.

There is a passage in front, a forest on the left, right, and back, and a yard in the middle.

Wait for the youth point to be revoked, and then rent this young spot that no one wants, and then open a back door in the pigpen house, and connect it to their own yard through the passage.

People live in the back, and they keep small things in the front yard.

Dynamic and static isolation, free and easy.

Thinking of the beautiful scene at that time, Chen Fan was a little excited.

Even if you settle in the city in the future, it won't affect the vacation here!

After imagining a better life in the future, Chen Fan finally began to face the reality and worked as a coolie with a firewood knife.

First of all, a miscellaneous tree behind the Educated Youth Courtyard must be cleaned up, so he started from here, cutting down some small trees first, and as for the root part, wait for the snow to melt.

The wood knife is about a foot long, with a flat head and a single edge, the back of the knife is extremely thick, and the handle is also about a foot long, which is put into the iron ring of the knife body and fixed with rivets.

Chen Fan held a firewood knife in his hand and began to practice the Five Elements Knife Technique.

Xingyi Five Elements Knife, based on the five elements of fist splitting, collapse, drilling, cannon, horizontal, combined with the routine of the chain knife and created a knife method, its move structure is rigorous, the strength is smooth, the strength is brave, and the momentum is majestic.

And the five-element knife taught by Xiao Liewen is combined with the number of swordsmen in Guanzhong, and the essence of "fast, accurate, and ruthless" is obtained, coupled with the fierceness of Xingyi Fist, at this time in Chen Fan's hands, a firewood knife flies, cutting off miscellaneous trees.

At the beginning, he was still a little unskilled, after all, practicing knives and chopping wood are two different feelings.

However, as these miscellaneous trees fell, the experience points of the skill board increased, and he automatically corrected the mistakes in his strength, which made him more and more deeply aware of the changes in the strength of the Five Elements Knife, and he became more handy at splitting the trees.

I don't know how long it took, until there was a creaking sound of snow in the distance, he came to his senses, and then looked at the ground, and more than forty miscellaneous trees had fallen.

Although none of these trees grew large, the thickest ones were only the size of a bowl, and more were small trees about the size of a fist, but he could cut so many by himself that he was even better than a professional lumberjack.

When Jiang Lili turned out from the courtyard wall and saw the broken trees in this place, she was stunned, and after a while, she looked at Chen Fan with a surprised face, "You cut these all down?" ”

Chen Fan coughed dryly and said seriously, "It's cold, the trunks are frozen and brittle, and they can be broken by knocking casually." ”

As he spoke, he stepped on the trunk of a fallen tree and snapped into two with a clatter.

Jiang Lili looked curiously at the tree under his feet, and then at a thinner broken tree not far away, and walked over with a kick.

Then he hugged his leg and shivered, "Wow, it hurts." ”

Chen Fan wiped his face and held back a smile, "With that little strength, you will definitely not be able to kick." ”

Jiang Lili was a little unconvinced, "A few days ago, you were not as good as me in carrying water." ”

Chen Fan said confidently, "I'm recovering from a serious illness, try it now, even you can pick it up." ”

Jiang Lili didn't know what to think, her face suddenly flushed, and she lowered her head and muttered, "It's a little late now, you better go back and rest first." ”

Chen Fan raised his head and looked at the sky, it was indeed dark and gloomy, but the thick white snow on the ground could borrow a little light, and he could barely see the surrounding environment clearly.

He turned his head to Jiang Lili and said, "You go back to rest first, I'll dig a pit and come over, otherwise it will be even more difficult to wait for the snow to be thicker tomorrow." ”

Jiang Lili nodded, "Then be careful." ”

Seeing Chen Fan nodding yes, she turned around and went back.

Waiting for Jiang Lili to leave, Chen Fan dragged the fallen tree trunk to a windward place, with a few large pads underneath, and other trees stacked up in turn, so that the branches could be dried as soon as possible with the help of the terrible north wind.

Then I found a low-lying place and tested the hardness of the ice and snow below.

Fortunately, the ice in the south is not as strong as in the north, and after a few shovels are shoveled down to dig out the ice and hard soil on the surface, it is easier to dig up a lot of soil below.

The place he chose happened to be a depression, and he piled up the excavated earth on the ground to make a wall, so that it was one point deeper and one point higher, and in a short time, he dug a pit one meter deep, two meters wide, and more than three meters long.

Later, a few small trees were cut down to cover the pit and prevent it from being flooded by heavy snow at night.

After all this, he moved his muscles a few times, and returned with a wood knife and shovel.

At this time, there was no light in the Zhiqing point, Chen Fan went to the kitchen urn to get a basin of hot water, and went to sleep directly after washing.

didn't notice it, until the movement on his side stopped, Jiang Lili fell asleep wrapped in the quilt.
