Chapter 308 Taking the Chapter to Do It
Welcome to a vast collection of novels for you to explore!
"That's right."
Li Mosi gently kicked the tools on the ground with her foot.
"It's not just that they can't make ironware. You have to understand, the skill levels of the craftsmen in these manors vary."
He pointed to the broken tool handles.
"They're used to working by feel. If you ask them to carve a wooden handle, ten people might carve ten different thicknesses. When you try to fit it into the same iron axe, some won't fit, and some will be loose."
This will cause a lot of trouble.
In the end, it's easy to end up like adding too much water to flour and too much flour to water; if the wooden handle is thick, you just need to shave it thinner. If it's loose when you go in, then hammer it tighter.
Then the probability of the handle and head falling off during use increases.
There is also the possibility that the joint is too thin, causing it to break easily when force is applied.
With so many people working on the project, he didn't want anyone to get injured and morale to drop because of a few tools.
Faced with even more extreme outcomes, he would rather put efficiency aside.
Anyway, it's not impossible to use wooden planks to dig clay.
You can even dig it with your bare hands.
Li Mosi looked at Ziyi and Zian.
"We need to build houses, and everyone has to work. Ideally, all the tools should be the same size. Otherwise, even changing the handles will be a huge hassle. Even if these craftsmen can replace the broken handles now, it might cause other problems."
Zi'an and Ziyi were stunned for a moment, then nodded subconsciously.
"Ha~~~ So what are you going to do~"
The saintess yawned again, softer than the previous two times.
"Alright, that's enough for tonight."
Seeing her like this, Li Mosi knew that this matter wouldn't be resolved today.
Even if Ziyi and Zian explain it clearly, they will have to wait until tomorrow morning to pass it on to the people.
Let's talk about it tomorrow.
He waved his hand.
"Go and tell the people and tribesmen to rest first. We'll talk about the specifics tomorrow."
……
Early the next morning.
The sky had just begun to brighten, and a damp chill still lingered in the forest.
On the open ground outside the large cave, several campfires were rekindled.
A large pot was placed on the fire, bubbling and cooking today's breakfast.
Several goblins who had just returned with the group last night were stirring the pot with large spoons.
The one-eyed old man walked over with his spear and peered into the pot.
"What are you doing?"
goo~
He sniffed, and his stomach growled.
The slaves, awakened by the fragrance, also peeked out from the cave entrance.
"Why are you cooking so early?"
"Isn't it for feeding wolf cubs?"
"Fool, how can wolf cubs eat wheat?"
"Yes, I can smell the aroma of wheat."
Hearing the noise behind him, the goblin cooking answered casually without even looking up.
"Cook rice."
"Cook rice?"
The one-eyed old man glanced back at the cave entrance, and seeing the slaves pull their heads back in, he turned back with a curious look on his face.
"It's just dawn now?"
Eating so early?
What exactly happened during this period?
The goblin who was cooking stopped what it was doing and tapped the edge of the pot with a wooden spoon.
Ding ding—
"That was before. The chief said that now we eat three meals a day."
It grinned, showing its teeth.
"This is how we eat on human territory!"
Three meals?
The old one-eyed man nodded slightly and remained silent.
Lasso, who was not far away, heard it clearly. He touched his emaciated belly and his eyes lit up.
Three meals a day?
Can slaves be eaten?
On the other side, Li Mosi had already gotten up.
"Eek!" "Eek!" "Eek!" "Eek!" "Eek!"
Inside the leader's cave, the five wolf cubs, reunited after a long separation, were whimpering, which had already woken up Li Mosi and the others.
At this point, apart from Hagi Saint still lying on the hay bed, the three of them had been moving around for quite a while.
Zian was watching over the wolf cubs, telling them not to run around.
Ziyi is cooking dried meat to feed the wolf cubs.
Li Mosi glanced at them and continued with her own business.
He was standing in front of the stone table, holding an ink stick in his hand, writing and drawing on the spread-out surface by the firelight.
The first thing is still the update time.
Thirteen days to go.
The temperature drop has entered the next stage, and even the night wind has begun to carry a noticeable chill.
Thanks to their current clothing and the good food they had eaten recently, the people were able to hold on for the time being.
However, in a few days we will enter the next cooling phase, and the perceived temperature is expected to officially drop below 20 degrees Celsius.
If people don't wear extra clothes, they'll definitely catch a cold, and the people won't be able to withstand it for long.
In short, we need to hurry.
We can only use the old methods.
He skillfully drew several shapes on the rice paper with an ink stick.
That's nothing other than a tool used for tamping soil.
A tamping tool for a single person, wooden stakes for several people to tumble together, and wooden molds for fixing the earthen walls.
After finishing the drawing, Li Mosi put down the ink block and looked at Zi'an.
"Zian."
"Um?"
Zi'an looked up in response and instinctively tightened his arms to hold the wolf cubs. Zi Yi also looked over when he heard the sound.
"Go and find the carpenter in the team later, and show him the rammed earth tools that the tribe made before."
Li Mosi pointed out of the cave.
"We showed this to the carpenters at Vallos Manor before; they've made similar tools before. Have them show it to the other carpenters how to make it. I'll get some wooden rulers later to finalize the dimensions."
As he spoke, he moved his finger horizontally, roughly pointing to the pile of damaged tools outside the cave.
"Find an empty oxcart and load all the broken tools onto it. Take a few men and take it back to the manor to have the blacksmith fix it."
"Yes, Master."
Before long, the five wolf cubs were calmed down and began to devour the softened jerky.
Zi'an and Ziyi received the new blueprints drawn by Li Mosi, turned around and walked out of the cave to find the craftsman and explain the situation to him.
Seeing them leave, the wolf cubs even put their food aside.
Some looked at Li Mosi first, while others looked at Zi Yi and Zi An's backs.
The five fluffy gray heads turned around for a while, and the largest one picked up the jerky and walked towards the cave entrance, swaying from side to side.
Seeing it leave, the four pups followed one after another, each carrying a piece of jerky.
It seems they've already decided who's in charge.
Li Mosi glanced at the wolf cubs at the front, then looked at the four slightly smaller cubs behind them.
The development speed is okay.
It's been almost a month since I last saw him, and he can walk without any problems now.
He didn't stop him.
There are more important things to do.
Li Mosi turned around and walked towards the hay bed.
Haki Saint was still huddled up there, his golden buns, after being frantically rubbed against the hay, had turned into indescribable explosive buns, sputtering here and there in a chaotic mess.
"Get up. Wake up, don't sleep!"
The wolf cubs have already eaten, why are they still sleeping here?
Li Mosi reached out and grabbed the back of her collar, lifting her up directly.
"What are you doing?!"
Haki Saint immediately opened his mouth and closed his eyes, his face full of reluctance.
"I'm not awake yet! What are you up to now?"
It's not even lunchtime yet, is it?
Li Mosi ignored her, turned around and took out a long strip of wood left over from dismantling the wooden box from the wall, and also picked up the ink block.
He opened the [Leshanshui] map and directly locked onto Hajisheng.
[Target state: Drowsy, underage, lethargic]
[Target distance: Less than one meter]
[Target Behavior: Resistance]
"Stand up straight."
Li Mosi looked at the three notifications that popped up after she locked onto Hagi Saint, and immediately made the agitated Hagi Saint get out of bed and stand up straight.
Once she stood at attention, Li Mosi took a step back.
