Chapter 19 It's going to rain(1/2)
Seeing Cai Ji's appearance, Jiang Tian felt warm in his heart.
Before time travel, he was alone.
The feeling of being relied on now...
not bad.
Reach out your hand and stroke Cai Ji's hair.
"Be good, the monster has been thrown down, don't be afraid anymore."
"Um."
Cai Ji opened her eyes wide and nodded obediently.
"Master, I want to help."
"Okay then, just fish for clouds here. You should be able to pull up something lighter."
"How to fish?"
"Lu Bu, come and teach her."
"Yes, my lord! This Diao Yun is... I will make it for you to see..."
…
Cai Ji is very smart. After watching Lu Bu's demonstration, she also learned to throw the pole.
I learned it in a decent way.
Let her watch from the east, while Jiang Tian led Lu Bu to the wooden house.
The cylindrical trunk is surrounded by irregular wooden boards.
Just like this, it's not finished yet.
First, the door must be made for it.
I took a thicker board and calculated the length and width.
The overgrown part is sawn off, and the part that is not wide enough is nailed with boards to make up for it.
I compared it against the door frame and found it was just the right size.
A half-meter round hole was drilled on the side below the wooden door.
He gestured at the same position under the door frame and dug a hole there.
Then take a polished round stone stick and put it into the junction to make a door shaft, and pour some cooking oil on it.
Push and pull it with your hands, it's very smooth and there is no sound.
Go inside the house and nail two grooved pieces of wood to serve as door bolts.
This door is considered ready.
After adding the wooden door, the wooden house is still not complete.
Houses made of wooden materials are not very insulated, and if it rains, water can easily seep in.
"Lu Bu, bring the bucket and soil, and two buckets of water."
"Yes, my lord!"
He ordered Lu Bu to pour the soil he caught earlier into the aluminum bucket, pour in the mineral water and start stirring to mix them together.
Later, Jiang Tian brought a trowel.
Together with Lu Bu, spread the wet soil evenly around the house and on the dome.
Waiting for the sun to dry the soil and form a protective layer.
In this way, the thermal insulation effect of the house will be greatly increased.
The cold wind does not enter and the scorching sun does not invade.
Having said that.
Although there is no shortage of water resources now, we use mineral water and mud.
Jiang Tian still felt a little distressed.
It looks like we need to dig a reservoir.
If it rains, it is also convenient to store some domestic water.
Having said that.
If it rains, the mud may be washed away by the rain.
To be on the safe side, after the soil dries, a layer of rainproof cloth must be covered on top.
Jiang Tian had caught a few pieces of rainproof cloth before and placed them on the west side with other materials.
However, the current total area of these tarpaulins is only more than 30 square meters, which is not enough to cover the entire exterior of the house.
Open the system mall and see if you can buy some from it.
After searching, there are quite a lot of tarpaulins for sale.
It seems that many people are looking at the good weather now, as it has not rained for so many days.
So everyone relaxed and regarded the rainproof cloth as something less necessary.
The terms of exchange are varied, including buying food and water, weapons, sore medicine, anti-inflammatories and gauze.
It seems that these people also caught monsters and were injured.
Although Jiang Tian had caught some weapons, gauze, and some anti-inflammatory drugs before, it was impossible to use these things to replace the rainproof cloth.
There is a lot of food, so you can take it out and change it.
After buying enough tarpaulins, I took a look to see if the things I just hung up had been replaced with medicines.
none.
Not a single one.
Seeing this, Jiang Tian twitched his lips.
Is everyone knowledgeable now?
No one is willing to exchange medicine for Huazi?
The bags of potato chips and dried tofu that were placed there were also ignored.
After thinking about it carefully, it seems that medicines only appeared two days ago, and no one has caught them before.
In addition, as soon as the channel monster attack incident was publicized, everyone was panicked.
It will probably be difficult to collect the medicines.
Forget it, leave it alone for now.
Thinking of rain, Jiang Tian thought of another thing.
The gaps between the wooden boards on the wall and the ground must be sealed one by one, and more soil should be pressed below to form a slope, so that the house is at the highest point on the island.
If it rains, it will prevent water from seeping inside.
Well, very rigorous.
After a busy meal.
Next, just dig out the puddle again.
"Lu Bu, get the shovel and work."
"Yes, lord."
After searching for a location, I chose a piece of land on the north side of the island and marked out a 2x3,6 square meter grid.
"By the way, don't dig too deep and fall. Digging to a depth of more than one meter is enough."
"Yes, lord."
"After digging, remember to tamp down the mud to avoid water seepage."
"receive!"
Bang Chi Bang Chi...
Mud is flying.
…
After more than an hour of hard work by the two men.
A puddle has been shoveled out.
After a whole set of work, the sun has already reached the west and the sky is starting to get dark.
I went over and took pictures of the wooden house.
To be continued...
