"Ai Xia, should be my subordinate!"
Lu Xidong nodded and signaled to the other party that there was no need to panic. It was probably the goblins and the one-horned troll who had received the news that he had come out alone and were looking for his team.
As the panicked guards left the territory of the dark elves, they turned out to be the trolls headed by Tyr and the equally panicked Goblin warriors.
When they saw Lu Xidong safe and sound, they breathed a sigh of relief. Of course, why their master was at peace with the unruly dark elves also surprised them.
However, no one dared to ask, they were all waiting for Lu Xidong's order.
War or peace
Tyr unconsciously clenched the war hammer in his hand, waiting for the devil's words.
"Tyr, I have already negotiated with the dark elves. From today on, they will allow the felling of trees in the Forbidden Forest."
Hearing this, Tire and the others admired Lucidong even more, because they all knew that the dark elves regarded the trees in their territory as treasures, and Lucidong could make them agree to cut down the trees. What kind of magic was this? Is it causing trouble
However, Lu Xidong immediately added: "But... I still need to study carefully which trees to cut down."
To be honest, Lu Xidong only knew about the method of thinning but didn't know why. Therefore, the principle can be said clearly, but in actual operation, it still needs to be planned as early as possible.
Of course, he couldn't do it by himself. The most important key to thinning was the measurement and mathematical calculation of the distance between trees. Lu Xidong thought that the dwarves might be able to help in this regard.
And even if he cut down some wrong trees in the end, the dark elves didn't know, so he couldn't be fooling them.
It's better to have knowledge, you can freely grasp the scale, Lu Xidong has a lot of color.
Back in the town of Iserlohn, Lu Xidong immediately convened a meeting of the dwarves, and Ai Xia was also present at the meeting, because the actual operation required their cooperation.
On the other hand, Aisha Oudkard, the queen of the dark elves, actually relied on him, which gave Lu Xidong a headache.
He has no plans to open a harem yet, and even if he does, Lu Xidong is not sure what species of elves and demons will eventually be born.
Fortunately, Ai Xia's single-target combat effectiveness was very strong. She was an S-level advanced race and her special skill was concealed shooting, so Lu Xidong included her in his personal guard.
This personal guard is different from the personal guard composed of goblin warriors and horned trolls. Those guys are similar to regular combat troops, but this personal guard is more like a special force.
The current members include the human warrior Carter, the female magician Yundi, and the dark elf shooter Aisha. They are not monsters named after themselves, but the elite among the elite.
After the lumber was ready, the town construction of Iserlohn officially entered the fast lane.
The town was built even more beautifully than expected, because planning and organization from scratch were the only way to build such an orderly town.
If the old house needs to be demolished, it means that the past housing facilities have to be relocated, and it is difficult to make it so neat.
Lu Xidong was very satisfied, but the houses of the dwarves had no sense of art and were all the same. Without the road signs, it was sometimes easy for people to get lost.
Of course, there are still missing issues.
For example, the matter of pest control was forgotten by Lu Xidong, but it was a very important matter.
As expected of a forest, there are many insects. Of course, I don’t mean insect-type monsters, but common insects in life, such as flies, mosquitoes, and ants.
First of all, the sound is buzzing and buzzing, which is so annoying!
And if you don’t take anti-insect measures, just being stung by an insect will hurt you to death.
I remember the first time I was born, I was chased half the forest by a wasp. It was really miserable.
Nowadays, there are more monsters and creatures in the town, and a large amount of excrement and household garbage has attracted all kinds of bugs.
Of course, what’s even scarier is that these bugs can spread germs.
Although monsters have stronger resistance, they are all living things after all, and they will get sick and die. If it is because of the lack of protection from bugs, it would be an injustice.
No matter how clean you keep it, once the mysterious pathogen spreads, the cleaning work will be in vain.
As long as it is kept clean, bad bugs won't grow there, but it's hard to guard against those coming from the outside.
Therefore, we must find ways to deal with bugs.
To this end, Lu Xidong also held a plenary meeting specifically for everyone to brainstorm ideas.
But the cultural level of monsters can be imagined. Even Yundi and Carter, limited to their level of cultural development, did not come up with any plan that satisfied Lu Xidong.
So in the end, Lu Xidong completely ignored them and arranged everything according to his own wishes.
First, he thought of screen windows, which was the most direct method and expected to have good results.
But the most important thing is the material. Silk threads in this world are extremely expensive, and the output is extremely low. It is really unwise to use them for such consumables.
So Lu Xidong found an alternative—weaving a window screen using silk threads from a giant spider.
The work of collecting spider silk was handed over to the dwarf Dorum without any hesitation, and he was assisted by the lizard man Tagore and his troops.
The reason is that the giant spider is also a B-level monster, and it is difficult for other low-level monsters to be his opponent. Fortunately, spiders mostly act alone, and if a group of lizardmen surround him, they still have a high chance of winning.
This kind of spider silk is not only tough but also very sticky. It has achieved good results as soon as it was put into use.
Of course, Lu Xidong also arranged for someone to clean the spider silk screen every day, otherwise the sunlight in the house would be blocked by the insect corpses swarming in.
Next is the toilet and water supply device.
Lu Xidong was not used to being convenient in the open air, especially after having Yundi and Ai Xia, it became even more inconvenient.
Except for the previous female monsters, after all, they didn't have much beauty, Yundi and Aisha were different, both of them had the urge for him to push them.
So far, I have pushed him down just because I am worried about my face.
When the drainage and water supply facilities were completed, Lu Xidong already had an idea for the toilet.
However, making a toilet also has its own difficulties, such as the toilet.
At first, I just used wood to cut the toilet, but the result was very bad!
The squat toilet is okay, but the wooden sit-down toilet is difficult to clean.
It cannot be deodorized if it smells bad, and it will rot if not taken care of properly.
Oops, what if I'm too lazy to maintain it? If you say that, you're right, but taking durability into consideration, wood is really not durable, so it was eliminated.
Not to mention steel. We are already in a state of scarcity of resources. How can we get such luxury goods? Not to mention it hurts our butt.
Based on the above reasons, Lu Xidong decided to make a ceramic toilet with a material close to what he remembered.
Next comes the dwarf craftsman.
They buy and sell daily necessities made of pottery, which is relatively easy to reproduce.
Soil is collected from various parts of the forest, carefully selected with suitable properties, and then grilled in the prepared kiln.
After several failed experiments, as long as you come up with a finished product, everything will be fine.
Ten days later, the toilet exactly as it was in Lu Xidong’s memory was completed.
The toilet seat is made of wood and is completed when assembled.
In this way, every household is equipped with toilets and drainage facilities.
As expected of a dwarf, his hands are really skillful.
However, the surprise is yet to come.
Lu Xidong told them about the tap water facilities that would allow water to flow out when the faucet is turned, but he thought it would be impossible to implement and gave up very early.
There seems to be some kind of device that can use high-quality water magic stones to absorb moisture from the atmosphere. However, I heard that this thing is very expensive and takes up space.
In addition, purchasing magic stones requires a lot of money. In human society, this kind of equipment has become the exclusive property of a small number of wealthy people.
Of course, no one is stupid enough to use that expensive device as a toilet.
Therefore, even the dwarf brothers have never seen a flushing toilet or similar equipment.
Judging from the cultural level of this world, even the extraction type used in the dwarf kingdom is classified as the latest equipment, so it can be said to be natural.
If you think about it carefully, building water supply and drainage systems requires a considerable budget.
It's not so convenient that anyone can just change it if they want. It would take decades to slowly figure out the plan. Lu Xidong didn't want to just do a one-time project.
Now that water supply facilities can be built, it will definitely not be a problem to set up water distribution pipes based on the knowledge of the dwarves.
Having said that, it is still not comparable to the water pipes in the original world. It is difficult to maintain pressure at all times.
Therefore, it is necessary to use the gravity of nature, just like the water supply mechanism used in apartments and other places, to raise the water supply tank.
There is no high-pressure pump in the town of Iserlohn, so we have to rely on manpower to fill the water into the storage tank on the roof.
Of course, this level of labor is not a big deal to monsters. This is the superiority of monsters over humans.
That being said, the latest equipment is only available in a central facility for Lu Xidong's residents.
Every monster household still has to fetch water from the well on its own.
However, there are small water storage tanks at the water supply station and toilets, so you just need to refill them there.
Special personnel must be assigned to clean the water supply stations of each house every week. In short, it is generally going as Lu Xidong wants.
As expected of Milder, and Rolf.
I really underestimated the dwarf craftsmen before, but Lu Xidong thought to himself: In fact, he can entrust them with everything.
The water conservancy system, which he had always regarded as a long-term issue for the future, was completed in a matter of seconds.
Afterwards, Lu Xidong ordered the monsters to keep the water supply area thoroughly clean and to make them accustomed to washing their hands and gargling their mouths.
In this way, Lu Xidong gradually integrated human civilization and literacy into Iserlohn, a new type of town where monsters live together. Who knows that in a dark place, some people are always paying attention to their movements...
