About the water system and drainage system of Chidi City.
The tap water system is actually very easy to handle, the main work is the firing and laying of pottery pipes.
On the earth, the use of pottery pipes as water pipes was actually recorded in the Qin Dynasty, and even such historical relics have been preserved, which shows that the wisdom of the ancients should not be underestimated.
The drainage system also needs to use ceramic pipes, but it can only discharge simple domestic sewage.
Zhuang Yu thought to himself, it seems that it is necessary to make a special filter filter like the sink.
The entire Chidi City was busy again. Zhuang Yu's idea was that before the envoys from Baidi City came, at least the newly repaired town's water system and drainage system had to be done.
The pottery pipes were fired before the house was built, so there were already some, and the pipes were planned to be dug from the beginning.
Zhuang Yu led his staff to work overtime to lay the floor.
In the past few days, the whole town has been extremely lively, and everyone came to see the news after hearing the news.
There are also a lot of children, and they like to roll around on the second floor, run to the French windows and look at the street, and laugh out of nowhere together, and suddenly become happy for no reason.
Zhuang Yu was originally worried about the smell of the new house and formaldehyde, but now that he is so popular, he probably has diluted these things.
Poor businessmen from other places, from time to time they hear people from Chidi City excitedly discussing new houses, but they can't see them because they can't enter the city.
It has been several days since the town's water supply system and drainage system have been fixed.
In front of each small building, there is a small platform. In addition to a briquette stove, there is also a platform made of cement. The sink on the platform is particularly conspicuous. where to put it.
A switch is added to the outlet of the water pipe, as long as it is twisted, white water will flow out.
A group of children were playing happily, washing their hands and feet clean and white, with bright smiles on their faces.
"Young Master said that you have to clean up for nothing before you can enter the house."
"We brought dust into the room two days ago, and it took a long time to wipe the floor every day to clean it."
The adults are feeling the convenience and ease of use of the tap water system.
They used to go to the river to carry water, and they felt that it was very convenient and satisfying. They had experienced a period when there was not enough water at all, and all the water carried in the river made them extremely satisfied.
Unexpectedly, now, they come to the water without going out, it is really tap water.
It is completely unimaginable how Shaojun did it, and he is amazed.
A group of children were looking at the adults expectantly, "Are you going into the house? I'll turn on the tap for you to wash your hands and feet."
Because Shaojun said to save water, the faucet should not be turned on for fun, so they all waited there, and when adults wanted to enter the house, they would turn on the faucet to let people wash their hands and feet.
Zhuang Yu couldn't understand the fun of turning on the faucet after a day of playing with these children.
Not only children, but even adults can watch the faucet for a long time.
The water in the water pipe is quite large, because the location of the dam is high enough, there is no problem of insufficient water pressure.
Zhuang Yu also taught the Guiliu family to make some simple wooden furniture, mainly wooden shelves for storing things.
Put some porcelain bowls on it and some beautiful jars for salt and oil, and it will become taller in no time.
Although things are simple, putting them in the room not only does not take up space, but also allows things to have a place to be summarized, which looks extremely orderly.
No matter how you look at it, the house is simple, elegant, beautiful and easy to use.
It took a few more days until these things were decorated.
Zhuang Yu checked the town carefully, and then let the clansmen who had moved out come back to live.
Every household is allocated such a small building, which is nothing more than exchanging shotguns for cannons.
Even on earth, such a townhouse is priceless.
The clansmen couldn't close their mouths from laughter, their new home was so beautiful.
And they have all tried it secretly, that thing called Kang, as long as it is burned, it will be unbelievably warm at night.
The tribesmen wiped the floor bit by bit with the animal skins, because it became their home, and they were more particular and cherished.
However, there are other people coming to visit every day, and their doors can't be closed, especially on the second floor, where there are always a group of children rolling on it.
This is also because the number of houses is still too small for Chidi City. When a large number of such small towns are built, they can stay in their own homes without having to visit every day.
"Goudan, your house is so beautiful."
The kid named Goudan blushed. He invited these kids to play at home.
Goudan nodded, "It won't be long before your family can live in such a good house, because Shaojun said that all the houses in our Chidi City will be built like this, let me tell you, sleeping on the kang at night is warm, not at all It's not cold, I slept on the kang last night, it was so comfortable..."
A group of children’s eyes were shining, and then they rolled into a ball on the floor. The laughter like silver bells never stopped. They only hoped that the repair would arrive at their home as soon as possible. At that time, they would also invite other children to their floor Roll on.
In fact, the first people to live in the new house were not people from Chidi City, but... Qiao Jiang.
This guy was the first to move in, and Zhuang Yu told him that the new house had to wait until it got tasteless before moving in.
In the end, Yao Jiang replied that he could suck up the dirty air by himself, and he would not come out of the house even if he was killed. It was like a wolf who saw meat, and ran to the wooden floor on the second floor like a child. , rolled for a day.
Zhuang Yu almost covered his face, for such an adult, the majestic Xuandi's youngest son is actually so childish.
Shao Jiang has a different idea, he is not from Chidi City, he is going to leave after all, this house is less and less, no matter what, he has to move in first.
Zhuang Yu thought about it, the physique of people in this world is much better than that of people on earth, so let him do it.
After Yao Jiang moved in, the second one moved in was... Little Mushroom.
Recently, Shaohao's wooden house has become more and more beautiful, he has really figured out a little bit of tricks, grabbing small mushrooms and stuffing them into the wooden house every day.
Originally, Little Mushroom was a little familiar with the wooden house, but ever since Little Mushroom went to see Zhuang Yuxiu's new house, he wished to smash the wooden house in Shaohao's face, the gap was too big, so it didn't want to sleep in the wooden house.
The little mushroom rushed to occupy a building, all of which were its territory.
Unexpectedly, it is quite small and has a strong sense of territory.
Therefore, Zhuang Yu also moved into the house selected by Mushroom Zai.
And when Zhuang Yu moved in, Xiaoluotou from the Golden Centipede Department would definitely follow, and he also chose a building next to it.
These radish heads are still small, and they don't seem to be separated, they just occupy one building.
Zhuang Yu thought for a while, they stayed together and took care of each other, so I left them alone.
The Golden Centipede Department is now a part of Chidi City, so they should be given a small town, and according to the rules, the name of the small town must be called Golden Centipede Town.
That's it for now.
Then came the bee kiss, this little guy was very shy, but as Zhuang Yu's number one hidden guard, this matter was his most persistent, and no one could change it, so he chose the small building on the other side of Zhuang Yu to live in. , happily running to Zhuang Yu every day.
Fortunately, after the messy earthen houses were pushed away, the planning was unified, so that the space was used rationally, and many more houses were built, otherwise it would not be enough.
The most lively thing in Chidi City recently is that the town has been repaired, and people come to visit the town.
The town is the most comfortable in the morning, and it will be overcrowded in the evening.
Zhuang Yu lived in a small town with a group of children, and it was extremely lively every day.
Of course, new towns are constantly being built.
In addition to this, Shaoyu's team is also approaching.
Before Shaoyu's team arrived, Zhuang Yu had one more thing to deal with.
It is the bees kissed by bees. There are too many bees. A lot of beehives were originally added, but now there are not enough.
Maybe there are more and more flowers in the flower garden outside, and the bees reproduce very diligently in order to be able to pick all the flowers.
Also, there wasn't enough room for beehives.
Zhuang Yu planned to move the beehives to the town and hang them under the balconies of every small building.
In this way, the people in Chidi City can help take care of the beehives, and also allow them to have candy in the future.
Every household usually keeps a box of bees, which is also a good by-product, and it is not troublesome.
Zhuang Yu collected the honey in the beehive once, and then asked every household in the town to collect the beehive.
Bee Kiss was a bit reluctant, but there were so many bees that he couldn't take care of them by himself, so he had to go from house to house to let others take good care of his bees.
Zhuang Yu didn't let him go empty-handed either, but instead held a small jar with some honey in it.
Bee Kiss couldn't even say a word, he just raised the jar above his head and looked at others dryly.
As a result, people who have tasted honey are going crazy.
People outside may have tasted the taste of wild honey, but people in Chidi City have not. It is impossible to find sugar in the desert.
For most people in Red Emperor City, it was basically the first time they tasted sugar.
Not to mention children, even adults can't wait to raise beehives.
I didn't expect that these little guys who were flying around all day could actually make such a good thing.
I used to think that these little guys were flying among the flowers, and I just thought that they brought vitality to Chidi City, but I didn't expect that they were a big baby.
In addition, honey is brewed from pollen, which is natural and clean.
Bee Kiss goes from house to house, telling others how good his bees are in his way, and he is very happy to see that everyone likes them.
He's also a useful behemoth fighter.
After Zhuang Yu looked at the remaining honey, he didn't stay idle, and took a group of children to the mouth of the fire to pick up saltpeter.
A group of little radishheads from the Golden Centipede Department were so happy that they couldn't close their mouths together, "Brother Yu, are we going to make ice?"
Zhuang Yu nodded, "Recently, Red Emperor City has spent a lot of money buying materials to repair houses, so we have to sell other things."
What Zhuang Yu said was the truth. After a small town was repaired, the materials purchased from foreign merchants were a huge amount, which consumed a lot of materials in Chidi City.
Although it is worth the money, he still has to find a way to sell some best-selling items.
Now there is not enough manpower, and the development of new things requires manpower, so we have to make simple ones that don't require manpower to sell.
First of all, the weather is hot, and he has some honey, so he can make popsicles and sell them.
Don't underestimate popsicles, they are consumables. In such a hot weather, foreign businessmen will definitely buy them, and they will accumulate a lot of income over time.
The point is, popsicles have no cost except sugar, and the income from small transactions will not be small.
So Zhuang Yu took a group of children to pick up saltpeter.
Although saltpetre is often found in volcanic areas, it is not everywhere.
Moreover, the situation of each crater is different. For example, Zhuang Yu took a group of children to search for these craters in Chidi all day, but there are only a few sporadic ones.
Zhuang Yu looked at the saltpetre carried by the little radish heads, and originally thought that each family would get a refrigerator, but now it seems that it is impossible...
You have to gather the saltpeter and make it into a big refrigerator, so that you can get enough popsicles.
I can only do this at first, and pick up some saltpeter every day to make more large refrigerators. If there is more ice, each household can share a little. When it is hot during the day, put it in the basin and use it as an ice basin.
In addition to the small business of selling popsicles, Zhuang Yu thought of another one.
After such a long time, the prickly ash and fragrant leaves he planted can be harvested under the irrigation of the small mushroom bath water.
The basic materials traded in the market are all settled in the form of meat and animal skins, so now Chidi City has stockpiled a lot of meat.
Zhuang Yu is going to process the meat and sell it as stewed meat.
I believe that the taste of stewed meat will conquer all people.
Braised pork is not like popsicles, it cannot be stored. Merchants can buy their braised pork to eat in their clan's land, and let their clansmen taste the food in Chidi City.
Things have to be done one by one. Zhuang Yu is going to make the popsicles and stewed meat first, and then see if there is any manpower to carry out other businesses.
The huge Scarlet Emperor City is so busy that it can't be manned. It can be imagined how busy it is.
in a few days.
The market outside the city was as lively as ever, but today was a little different.
A group of little radish heads ran out of Chidi City with a box hanging around their necks.
The box was sealed with animal skins, as if afraid of something getting out.
A group of radish heads came out of Chidi City, opened their mouths and shouted, "Sell popsicles, sweet, icy and delicious popsicles."
In the market, foreign businessmen wiped their sweat. The weather in Chidi seems to be much hotter than that of their tribe. Looking at a group of yelling little radish heads, what are these children from Chidi City doing
The weather is so hot, it is really energetic to run outside.
Because popsicles appeared for the first time, no one knew what they were, and no one came forward to buy them.
A group of children were stunned, the popsicles are so good, why don't these foreign businessmen buy them
But it doesn't matter, brother Yu said, it doesn't matter if it can't be sold, the cost is not high anyway.
Then with a smile on their faces, they also secretly thought that it doesn't matter if they can't sell it, they can eat the popsicles.
They had already eaten a piece before they came out just now, but it is so comfortable to eat sweet popsicles on a hot day, so one piece is not enough.
Seeing that no one bought it, Xiaolian opened the box on his chest excitedly.
Because Brother Yu said that their small incubator is too small, if it is often opened, the popsicles will turn into water.
After quickly taking out a popsicle, the box was tightly closed, and any possible gaps were plugged with animal skins.
Then, with his eyes curled up in a smile, he stuck out his little tongue and licked the popsicle.
In fact, it is more refreshing to eat bit by bit, but they are reluctant to eat that way too quickly.
While licking the popsicles, he yelled inarticulately, "Selling Beng sticks, delicious Beng sticks..."
It's just that they haven't shouted yet, and the businessmen around them are all dumbfounded, wiping their eyes vigorously.
"Is it ice? I read it right, right?"
"Where did the ice come from in this hot weather? But seeing the white smoke coming out, it's ice."
In this world, there is an indescribable attachment to snowflakes, ice, etc., which is because of the ten suns in the sky.
As a result, ice is a great thing for them.
Think about how comfortable it is to hold a piece of ice in your hand in this hot weather.
Little Luobotou was stunned after taking a bite of the popsicle, because a group of people surrounded him excitedly.
He tilted his head in doubt, raised his head and looked at the adults, they are not afraid of being surrounded, this is their Chidi City, they opened their mouths, "Buy popsicles? It's sweet and icy."
The foreign businessman was also confused, and licked his lips, "Is this ice for sale?"
Before Xiaoluotou could answer, someone asked again, "How do you sell it?"
This is ice, which can be encountered but not sought after. No one has even seen ice in the daytime.
Their eyes were fixed on the box on Little Luootou's chest. If they saw it well, the popsicle was taken out of this box just now.
But why didn't it melt? With this kind of weather, the ice couldn't last at this time at all.
Little Carrot stretched out two fingers, "One piece of meat for two small popsicles."
Brother Yu said that although ice is worthless, their honey is hard to come by.
I am hesitating whether it is expensive, because they watch the water turn into ice, and after they have a dam, the water is worthless.
As soon as it was exported, a businessman said, "Buy, give me two popsicles."
"I'll also have two popsicles."
Little Luobotou was too busy, oh, let him finish licking the popsicle first.
Stuffing the popsicles in his mouth, he began to sell with inarticulate speech.
At first, I wanted to keep a piece to eat secretly, but when I saw the empty box, it was sold out in a rush.
The merchants also peeked into the box secretly, but saw nothing.
A group of businessmen held popsicles, "This popsicle looks quite interesting."
It is strung with a small wooden stick, and you can feel the coolness when you get close.
So comfortable.
Little Luobotou looked at the merchants using popsicles to cool off, and couldn't help being taken aback, "These popsicles are for food."
Then he put his nearly melted popsicle in his mouth, and took a bite, "Sweet."
It's ice cold, after eating it in the stomach, I feel comfortable all over.
Why don't these merchants eat it, just waste it with their hands, and it will melt away without a refrigerator.
How do businessmen know? After thinking about it, it should be very comfortable to eat.
I also put it in my mouth and took a bite, and then my eyes were enlarged.
"It's sweet, so sweet, sweeter than the berries we eat."
"And it's very cold, so comfortable."
There is nothing more comforting than eating a popsicle in summer.
The charm of popsicles instantly conquered everyone.
A group of people biting popsicles, showing comfortable expressions.
It's a pity that there are too few popsicles, but looking at the box of Little Carrot Head, they are all sold out.
The little radish heads started to walk back. They thought it would take a long time to sell, but they were gone in no time. The meat they bought in exchange for popsicles was directly handed over to the uncle who set up a stall next to them. They couldn't resist it.
The merchants were sighing a little, they didn't have enough popsicles, and they would be at ease after eating two more popsicles. At this moment, there was an uproar from the food street.
The voice was very loud, as if it was shocking something.
Someone from their own caravan has already come to inform them of the situation, "Team leader, hurry up, go to the food street to buy meat from Chidi City."
The team leaders were all stunned. Are they stupid? They brought meat to exchange for salt and porcelain. They could tell at a glance that the Red Emperor City lacked meat. Now they actually asked him to exchange for meat in the Red Emperor City? Isn't he stupid, usually this kid looks quite smart.
The person who came to report the letter said out of breath, "Their meat is different, and it is very delicious. The leader, we came here and passed through thousands of miles of yellow sand for a long time. During this period, we can only eat some tasteless dry food, but the meat sold in Chidi City Meat can be preserved for a long time, and it tastes very delicious. I just tasted a small bite, and it is countless times better than our barbecue. The people in Chidi City said that their meat is enough to preserve it until we cross Chidi, even if it is transported back It is also possible in our family.”
After finishing speaking, he said, "We brag about how delicious the food in Chidi City is, don't the people outside believe it? They say we are lying and haven't eaten good food. This time we buy some back, and we have to hit them in the face No."
The team leader was taken aback, "Is it really better than the current barbecue? Can it still be stored?"
Now the food street in Chidi City is delicious, but it cannot be stored for a long time, so they can only finish eating here.
When crossing thousands of miles of yellow sand, I still have to eat those tasteless dry food, which is painful to think about.
But if you have meat that is more delicious than the current barbecue, and you can carry it all the way, is it still a problem to travel thousands of miles of yellow sand
Of course, it would be best if he could slap those outside who said he was bragging in the face.
The guy who sent the message was anxious, "Really, I think people from other caravans are rushing to buy it, so let's go buy it soon, or there will be no more."
If they can't buy it, they will be pitiful. Every time they cross Chidi, what they fear most is not the harsh environment, they are not pampered people, what they fear most is eating tasteless dry food, thinking about the delicious food in Chidi City food.
A group of people hurried to the food street again.
Still far away, I could smell the unique aroma of stewed pork.
They had never smelled that fragrance before, but just by smelling it, they knew how delicious it was.
The food in Chidi City has never disappointed them.
There is quite a lot of stewed meat, and it is sold in every gourmet shop.
As a result, the food tasting event that was originally prepared was only started, and people from the caravan flocked to buy it.
The women in Chidi City were bubbling with joy. The meat was bought from these merchants, but now it was only processed and sold to them again.
Good business, Shaojun's brain is smart.
Moreover, they have no idea of taking advantage of others, because their stewed meat is really delicious and worth the money. They tasted it just now, and it tastes better than their barbecue. It makes people drool.
Apart from their Chidi City, where can these foreigners eat such delicious food.
There was a long queue in the food street, and these businessmen knew best about the hard work of crossing Chidi. It can be said that braised pork will become a necessity for them.
The stewed meat is wrapped in banana leaves, which come from the berry trees planted by Zhuang Yu on both sides of the river bank. It seems that some large-leaved plants such as plantains will need to be grown in the future.
Zhuang Yu was waiting for the sales results of popsicles and stewed pork.
Unexpectedly, after a while, a group of little radish heads came back.
"Brother Yu, our popsicles are so easy to sell, they are sold out as soon as we go out."
The other radish heads nodded, "They are rushing to buy them, we can make more in the future."
It's a pity that they don't have enough big refrigerators now, so they can't do that much.
Ant held his finger in his mouth and held up the small box on his chest, "But... but Ant didn't sell a single piece."
Zhuang Yu couldn't help being taken aback.
The ants were tearful, "I have eaten them all, I have eaten them all before I even walked out of the city gate."
Wronged Baba, he is small, and the box is also small, can't hold a few pieces, not enough for him to eat.
Zhuang Yu: "..."
He ate it by himself, and complained tearfully and aggrieved.
