From wilderness to palace

Chapter 47 Reinstalling the Shelter
Unlike most of the other villagers who go into the mountains with their backs on their backs, Liu Yaozu, who goes into the mountains every time, wears a custom-made mountaineering bag.And every time he enters the mountain, the things in his mountaineering bag increase.This weight alone would be difficult for ordinary people to carry.

On the other hand, Liu Yaozu had to carry so many things over mountains and ridges, which would have been impossible for him who used to work in the imperial capital.Now he feels that it is not strenuous because he has always insisted on practicing physical training and only dared to do so after improving his physique.

When they arrived at Shelter No. [-], the nearby mountains and forests were still very quiet.At present, most of the nearby villagers who enter the mountains go to the mountains with pine forests.On the No. [-] shelter, most of them grow miscellaneous trees, and some pine trees grow sporadically.

Seeing the lock hanging on the wooden door, it seemed that no one had touched it. Liu Yaozu also knew that no one had entered the wooden house.In fact, without knowing who built the wooden house, the villagers who entered the mountain would not enter the house casually.

In the countryside, it is easy for misunderstandings to break into other people's homes.The No. [-] shelter is quite large and looks like a wooden house.If the owner is not at home and he opens the door and goes in, who knows what will happen?

"First open the door to let in the air, and then open two windows. It must be more comfortable to live in the house at the back!"

When he built Shelter No. [-], he didn't install windows in the wooden house.This time he entered the mountain, he specially customized two windows with double-layer antifreeze glass.Just cut two holes in the wooden wall and install the windows.

Before entering the house, Liu Yaozu still took out an insect repellent tablet from his backpack, lit it and threw it into the wooden house.As the pungent thick smoke began to permeate the wooden house, the insects, snakes, mosquitoes and ants hiding in it would be driven away from this confined space by the smoke.

As long as you don't go in right away, and then open the door to let in some air, you won't feel uncomfortable living in it.This kind of insect repellent smoke sheet is also relatively common in the countryside. It is very convenient to smoke mosquitoes and moths in summer.

Taking advantage of the insect repellent, Liu Yaozu cleaned up the area around the wooden house again.Compared with Shelter No. [-], the wooden house in front of me is located in the center of the jungle, but the surrounding area is still quite open, and there are not many shrubs and weeds to be seen.

Considering that the picked wild mushrooms will be dried in the later stage, Liu Yaozu, who took out the tools from his backpack, also started to make some tools needed for woodworking.Similar to wooden shelves and some easy-to-use operating platforms.

On this trip into the mountains, Liu Yaozu went to the market to purchase some special tools for carpentry.Without power tools in the mountains, he can only purchase handmade wood planes and drill bits for drilling holes.

With these tools, it will be much more convenient for him to decorate the wooden house more beautifully later.For example, the wooden bed I used to sleep on was made of logs.This time with a plane, you can make a real wooden bed.

There are also furniture such as dining tables. With these custom-made old-fashioned carpentry tools, Liu Yaozu can also experience the work of those carpenter masters in his early years.Besides, he should stay for a few more days for this trip into the mountains.

Since it is necessary to live in the mountains for a period of time in the future, it is natural to make this wooden house more comfortable.Even this trip into the mountains, Liu Yaozu is planning to build a big wooden barrel to ensure domestic water when he lives here.

Looking at the open space around the wooden house, Liu Yaozu said thoughtfully: "If you have time, maybe you can build a tool room here. Some things are always carried on the back, but it is actually quite tiring. Putting them in the mountains should also be thrown away." Stop it!"

There is a tool room, which is also convenient for storing some things.Even in this wooden house, it is impossible for Liu Yaozu to live forever.But there is a house here, and it is much more convenient to go back into the mountain.Compared with the other two shelters, living here is more comfortable.

In addition to building a tool room, Liu Yaozu also considered building a toilet.Although in the mountains, it is very casual to solve the toilet.But for the sake of sanitation and safety, he felt that it was necessary to set up a squatting pit to solve personal hygiene problems.

After thinking about it, Liu Yaozu also said with emotion: "It seems that there are a lot of things to build! After the tool room and the toilet are built, even if you come here for a long time, it will probably be as convenient as at home!"

As for electricity consumption, as long as Liu Yaozu is not afraid of hard work and buys some solar panels to assemble them, it is not impossible to use electricity in the mountains.These days, the level of science and technology is advanced, are you afraid that you will not be able to enjoy a high-quality life if you are willing to invest?

Carrying the tools into the jungle again, Liu Yaozu did not let go of the fallen dead wood in addition to some straight miscellaneous wood.Prepare more wood, and save time when you need to use it later, and you have to come and cut it temporarily.

As a result, after a lot of work, Liu Yaozu, who arrived at Shelter No. [-], did not have time to look for Hericium erinaceus.Fortunately, on the way to the mountain here, he brought a lot of ingredients that can last for a few days, and there is no shortage of food for the time being.

He wanted to use the heating stove to cook, but when Liu Yaozu walked into the wooden house, he still felt that the house was relatively stuffy during the day.In desperation, he found some stones from the forest and built a relatively stable stone stove.

"Using a stove to cook is probably more suitable in winter. In summer, it's more comfortable to cook outside with a fire."

Installing a heating stove in the wooden house is more due to the fact that I will live in the mountains for a few days in winter.But staying in the wooden house in summer and cooking with a heating stove does seem a bit stuffy.There is an outdoor stove, which is also more convenient to use.

After lunch, Liu Yaozu started to move towards the wooden house, measured the size of the windows, and began to drill holes in the wooden wall.Because the building is very solid, cutting a window hole from the wooden wall will naturally not affect the sturdiness of the wooden house.

Looking at the two cut-out window holes, standing in the wooden house and feeling it, Liu Yaozu was also very satisfied and said: "When you rest at night, the windows can be completely propped up, and there are mosquito screens to block them, so you don't have to worry about insects flying in. "

It doesn't take much time to install two windows.Open the window, and the mountain wind blows into the wooden house along the window, and the air in the whole wooden house also forms a circular convection. The stuffy feeling of walking in before is quickly relieved a lot.

Just seeing the slightly damp ground, Liu Yaozu thought for a while and said: "The mud floor is still inconvenient after all. Even if the rain does not come in, if it is closed for a long time, it may be prone to mold. How about laying a wooden floor? "

Liu Yaozu, who was about to dismantle the wooden bed, thought of the bare ground, which seemed a little bit of an eyesore.There is a lot of wood that has just been cut down. If you build a frame on the ground and spread the wood evenly, won’t it become a solid wood floor?
With wooden floor insulation, the house will be warmer in winter.Thinking of this, Liu Yaozu immediately emptied all the things in the house, except for the installed heating stove, and began to build the frame in the wooden house.

Compared with building wooden walls, laying floors for wooden houses is undoubtedly more technical.Fortunately, Liu Yaozu brought a lot of tools when he was going up the mountain.The felled large timber is first sawed into planks of uniform thickness with a saw.

Although the boards sawed in this way are not as smooth and fast as the sawing machine.But Liu Yaozu, who was also not slow in his hands, still sawed a few chopped miscellaneous trees into wooden boards, and then planed them smooth with a plane.

Looking at these newly baked wooden boards, Liu Yaozu, who was sweating profusely, also smiled wryly: "When I go back next time, I need to look online. It is best to find a sawing machine that uses oil and does not use electricity. , then it should be much more convenient to saw the board.”

Not to mention the slow speed of manual sawing, the key is laborious.Even if Liu Yaozu's physique and strength are sufficient now, but it takes too much time for this, which makes him feel dissatisfied.As the saying goes, time is also money!

If there is a more time-saving and labor-saving tool, he will naturally not refuse to use it.Wouldn't it be more convenient for him to take more wood at any time if he wanted to build some new buildings in the future?
