085 Going to the Flow 3
There are lush forests and vines, and there is no road. You can only use a knife to open the road while exploring. Although it is slow, this is the only way. It looked like another hour, the sun was about to set, and they had to hurry up, but just this hundred meters, it really took nearly half an hour.
However, the third son found out. With a lift of his right hand, everyone behind immediately stopped. He then patted the person in front of him who was opening the road with a knife. When this person turned his head, he saw that the third son made a ban. Voice gesture.
Three sons lifted both hands and clicked on both sides. These people all dispersed. After they dispersed, they noticed the front. Through the dense forest, they saw that there was a small grassland about ten meters away. , On the grassland, there are more than 20 unnamed animals grazing here, both like cows and deer, or not at all. Anyway, use Li Youping’s favorite words to replace them. 'Game'.
The Zero-Hour Trestle was quickly built, and it only took half an hour. After the trestle bridge was built, they began to sail and dock. There are many boats here, and they have to be fast. In the evening, everyone came down, and the supplies were just the necessary things like the tent. The rest will have to wait until tomorrow. It is definitely impossible to move all the things down today.
At this time, the sky is almost dark. It is estimated that in less than a quarter of an hour, the sky will be completely dark. Li You did not waste this time, and quickly let someone take a knife and an axe to clear their vision, and get closer. The trees on the beach are not too tall and can be easily cut down. As long as you drive 30 meters around, the coast here is indeed a bit narrow. For safety's sake, this must be done.
Just when Li You arranged for someone to cut down the trees, the people who went to investigate in the dense forest came back. When Li You saw the three sons and the others, he was also surprised, because each of them was dragging a hyena. When the antelope came out of the dense forest, this thing had to be at least nearly two hundred catties. When the others saw it, they hurried forward to help.
Li You really didn't expect that the three men and a group of talents went in to investigate for a while, and they were able to return a few hyenas, which really surprised him.
Li You immediately walked over and asked the three sons: "Why did you beat so many hyenas? This is a dense forest."
But the third son was still a little dissatisfied and said: "Young master, there is a small pasture ahead, where there are so many things, only the eight of us went forward. We just ran into it, and we hit eight heads by the way. If there are more people, I'm afraid that the remaining twenty or so will have to keep half of them."
"Hehe, in the future, you will have the opportunity to go hunting. Have you found any abnormalities during this investigation?" Li You is most concerned about this issue.
"There is no abnormality. Maybe this is not the area where they are active. Tomorrow we will expand the scope and explore it again. If there is no trace of activity, then this place should be relatively safe. I don't know whether the young master plans to build a dock here. "
This is the southernmost point of the island, and only the terrain is slightly flat, so it can only be here. This is originally the place Li You planned, and only here is the most suitable. If you really want to guard the southern end, then this is not the place to choose. . To the east is mountains, and to the west is a plain. Looking to the north, it is also a plain. It is big enough here. Just open up a piece of land at will.
Li You then said: "Yes, the place is chosen here. Starting from tomorrow, part of this area will be reclaimed first. As long as a small city is built here, it will be enough. By the way, you guys have to get this antelope to be dealt with quickly. Now, let everyone drive the meat at night."
"Haha, yes, young master."
Not far from the edge of the dense forest, a simple tent has just been set up here. This is the place where Mu Jiande, his mother, Cai'er and Aunt Liu live temporarily. There is really no way. The only way to do it was just two days ago. . As long as the woodland is expanded, some zero-time residences will be built here, and then it will be fine. Li You has already passed the word, saying that within half a year, all of them will get a small courtyard.
Mu Jiande carried two bowls of cut hyena meat into the tent. A family of four ate it under the light of a bonfire not far away. Although there were not many, each of them shared nearly half a catty. I can fill my stomach. This is the only thing tonight. There is no way. The fresh water on board is limited. I just arrived now and I haven't found the source of water yet.
"My son, just now, my mother heard a manager say that Young Master Li has already set this place, and in the future this will be the place for me to stay."
"Mother, this land is pretty good. As long as you open the land and plant anything, when you just cut down the trees, an older person said that the soil here is better than Ueda. Today, Patriarch Li sent a letter and said that within half a year, Everyone here builds a house. They also let those skilled in the work report to the steward. I, hehe, can only cut down the trees."
In this way, each family also has a topic to discuss, but everyone is very motivated, knowing that as long as they work hard, they will lead a good life, and this first night was quite fast.
The next morning, after eating, everyone was busy. As long as they could cut the tree, all men, women and children, young and old, carried knives and axes. Only in this way would the speed be the fastest. Li You's plan It is to open up a large enough place here within a month, and then immediately cultivate the farmland to become self-sufficient as soon as possible.
On a piece of land that has been cut down, the three men asked people to use claw nails to build a guard tower here. There are three guard towers to be built here. With this thing, you can still see something clearly in the distance. , At least it can still play a defensive role. Although I haven't seen a single person on the island now, this does not mean that there are no indigenous people active here.
After that, the Sanzi asked people to find a few places here and start digging wells. As long as this is solved, everything else will be easy to handle. As for the terrain here, Li You has taken people up to the top of the mountain on the right to check it out. At noon, Li You returned, and as soon as he got back, he boarded the ship and ran into the cabin to draw a map.
From the second day on, large-scale land reclamation began here, but they had two types of trees that they didn't cut down, namely coconut and camphor trees. There are many here, and coconuts are not mentioned. Naturally, they can be directly dragged back and sold for money. The whole camphor tree can exude the fragrance of camphor, and the fragrance can also repel insects, so it is natural to keep it. As for the other trees, they were all cut down, the better ones were left as wood, and the rest were burned directly into charcoal, and then the charcoal was used to burn bricks and tiles, but there was no waste.
As for the building, you have to slowly dig sand from the distant river, and mix it with clay to build bricks and stones with lime. Now everyone doesn't need to live in tents anymore. Many wooden houses have been built in the camp. Although simple, they are better than tents. If you want to have real houses, you have to continue to work hard. (End of this chapter)
