Chapter 16 Still catching monsters?(1/2)

The two items in the plastic bag are khaki in color and about the size of a fist.

It looks unattractive.

Jiang Tian looked at the plastic bag with a farmer's market label printed on it, and felt happy.

Potato!

What a good thing!

This is the fourth most important food crop in the world, not to mention its certain nutritional value. More importantly, its yield is extremely high and its ability to adapt to the environment is very strong!

The most important thing is that it is easy to store and not easy to deteriorate.

As long as you have it, you don't have to worry about eating and drinking.

At this time, Lu Bu had also put away his things and returned.

Looking at the potatoes in Jiang Tian's hand, he asked the classic line:

"Lord, what is this?"

"Okay, I'll explain to you later."

With a smile on his face, Jiang Tian arranged for Lu Bu to bring the bag of straw and scissors just now.

Then he walked to the southern part of the island, squatted down and pushed out two two-centimeter shallow pits with his hands.

Put the potatoes on top.

There is no shelter on the empty island, and the sun is shining on the potatoes.

Then the straw was spread evenly on the top, not very thick, and there was still a trace of sunlight shining through the gaps in the straw.

The temperature should be just right.

I took a bottle of mineral water and gently poked a few tiny holes in the lid with scissors.

A simple watering can is now ready.

Gently press the water bottle and sprinkle some water drops on the straw above the potatoes to ensure humidity.

The work of potato germination is completed.

While doing this work, Jiang Tian was still explaining the concept of potatoes to Lu Bu.

Looking at Lu Bu's dazed nod, he seemed to understand.

But it doesn't matter, he will understand it when he eats potatoes.

Looking at the position of this ball of potatoes, Jiang Tian couldn't help but start to imagine.

When the potatoes grow, should I eat hot and sour shredded potatoes or braised potato slices?

It would be even better if there is beef stew with potatoes.

Of course, this will have to wait until the potatoes grow.

I don’t know how long it will take for these potatoes to mature...



In the blink of an eye, another seven days passed.

Day nine.

"Well, it's almost done and we can start the rest of the work."

"Yes, my lord!"

"Okay, let's go get the things."

Jiang Tian waved his hand and arranged for Lu Bu to get supplies, then began to look at the small wooden house in front of him.

In the center and side of the island, a conical roof is built with wood.

It still looks like that's what happened.

During this period, Jiang Tian successively purchased some tree trunks over 3.5 meters tall, and together with the ones he caught, he made up 12 tree trunks.

Originally Jiang Tian wanted to make an ancient rectangular wooden house, but he couldn't find suitable materials, mainly because he couldn't find beams that long, so he had to settle for the next best thing and ended up looking like this.

At that time, I used a tree trunk more than three meters long, drew a circle with one end as the center, and divided the circle into six equal parts, and based on this, I drew a side shape.

This is the floor space of the house.

According to calculations, it is exactly about 30 square meters.

According to the original plan, a 1-meter foundation was drawn and laid for this cabin. Six tree trunks were placed in it, and then another trunk was placed on the top of the trunk and tied with hemp rope.

The same goes for the top, which is set up with a slightly shorter tree trunk and tied tightly with hemp rope.

The skeleton of a log cabin has been completed.

I pushed it with my hands and it was still very firm.

As long as there are no particularly strong winds, this wooden house should not be affected at all.

Jiang Tian nodded and looked to the west side of the island, where Lu Bu was busy.

There are materials that have been caught or exchanged for goods these days.

Stacks of wooden boards as high as one person, various sticks, branches, and stones placed on the ground.

There are also tarpaulins that are not neatly folded, and a large number of palm leaves and other materials.

Next to it are construction materials tools such as shovels, picks, and hammers, as well as daily utensils such as iron pots and aluminum dishes and chopsticks.

These metal objects reflect light in the sun and appear shiny.

A little further to the side, food and water are placed.

There were four cardboard boxes stacked on the black ground, filled with mineral water.

All brands are available.

There is also a cardboard box with Coca-Cola, 7-up, Mirinda oranges, etc. inside.

Although the quantity is not as large as mineral water, there are still more than 20 bottles.

Next to these water resources, there are several plastic boxes stacked.

Each box is full of food resources, and there are labels on the outside of the box.

[Instant noodles]

[Bread and biscuits]

[Soy products]

[meat]

[Sweets]



Seeing these neatly planned supplies, Jiang Tian shook his head and smiled.

Ever since I came here, I seem to have been forced out of my obsessive-compulsive disorder.

But when I saw the abundant resources, I felt very satisfied.

Looking to the south again, Jiang Tian raised his eyebrows.

The potatoes originally planted there have already been harvested.

The seedlings that emerged from the soil have grown very tall, about 20 centimeters tall.

To be honest, Jiang Tiandu was shocked when he saw this growth rate.

Under normal circumstances, it takes at least a hundred days from potato germination to harvesting.

But how long has it been now?

It only took seven days for the seedlings to grow so tall!

Calculating at this rate, it is estimated that the maturity period of the entire potato is only ten days, and the potatoes will be ready for a good harvest in two or three days.

How does the land here grow? It’s a bit amazing. This thing.

Speaking of land, I caught 12 pieces of 1 cubic meter of empty soil in the past seven days.

Now the island area has reached 114 square meters...

While Jiang Tian was thinking.

Lu Bu came over holding wooden boards, hammers and other things.

"Lord, please give me your orders!"

"Well, now that the frame of the wooden house is ready, let's nail the wooden boards and punch out the roof of the house first."

"yes!"

The two picked up hammers and nails and started hammering.
To be continued...
