Raft for All: I'm guaranteed to get a golden affix when I upgrade!

150 square meters.

Xiao Zheng put away the construction hammer, walked to the edge of the deck, and glanced down.

A pale golden light membrane slowly spread along the edge of the newly added deck, and in just two seconds, the entire 150-square-meter area was completely enveloped within the shield.

It is impervious to all laws and extends automatically.

Anything that is part of the raft is under its absolute protection.

Lin Xiaoya's footsteps came from behind.

She jogged to the newly expanded area, squatted down to touch the brand-new wooden planks, and then looked up at the faintly visible golden light curtain above her head.

"This shield... moves with the raft?"

"Um."

"How much expansion should be followed by protection?"

"right."

Lin Xiaoya stood up and took a deep breath.

"abnormal."

Xiao Zheng ignored her complaints and took out the blue drawing that was shimmering with a faint blue light from his backpack.

[Rare Grade - Double-Layer Windproof Seaview Wooden House Blueprints].

He clicked to learn.

The blueprints transformed into a beam of blue light and entered my palm, instantly conjuring up a complete set of incredibly precise 3D architectural structure diagrams in my mind.

The orientation of the load-bearing walls, the dimensions of the window frames, the angles of the drainage system's bends... all the data is crystal clear.

"Stand back."

Xiao Zheng waved to Lin Xiaoya.

Lin Xiaoya obediently retreated to the planting box, gripping the edge of the box with both hands, her eyes fixed on the center of the deck.

Xiao Zheng selected the construction site and confirmed the materials to be used.

[Consumes 800 planks, 200 glass, 50 metal sheets, and 100 ropes.]

[Under construction...]

A blinding white light suddenly burst forth in the center of the deck.

The light seemed to have substance and weight.

Amidst the light, countless tiny streams of data rose from the ground, rapidly spinning, splicing, and meshing in mid-air.

The outline of the timber beams took shape first, followed by the walls, window frames, and stairs—

The whole process took less than ten seconds.

The light dissipated.

A two-story log building, covering an area of ​​40 square meters and with a ceiling height of nearly 5 meters, appeared out of thin air in the center of the deck.

The exterior walls are made of thick, dark wood with a waterproof coating that gives them a calm, matte sheen in the sunlight.

A huge floor-to-ceiling window is embedded in the second-floor wall facing the sea, allowing sunlight to stream in unobstructed, making it incredibly bright and clear.

A two-meter-wide balcony with wooden railings extends out from the second floor, offering a wide view.

Xiao Zheng looked up at the finished product. It was a rare item, indeed incomparable to those thatched huts and tents.

There was only deathly silence behind me.

He turned around.

Lin Xiaoya covered her mouth with both hands, frozen beside the planting box, her eyes almost popping out of their sockets.

Several seconds passed before she slowly lowered her hand.

"Senior."

"Um."

"...The raft I lived in before was only twelve square meters, and it didn't even have a wall to block the wind..."

Lin Xiaoya's voice grew softer and softer, as if she were talking to herself.

"We're right at sea now... building villas?"

Xiao Zheng pushed open the wooden door on the first floor. The thick door panel made a slight "creaking" sound, with a reassuring resistance.

"Come in and have a look."

Lin Xiaoya followed behind, and when she stepped onto the threshold, she subconsciously looked down to look, afraid that she might miss her step.

The interior of the first floor appears more spacious than it does from the outside.

On the left is a full wall of shelves, divided into upper, middle and lower tiers. On the right, a mounting slot for a worktop is provided against the wall.

The floor is made of spliced ​​hardwood, and it feels warm and smooth underfoot, much more comfortable than the open deck.

"We'll store things on this floor, and we've also brought in the barbecue grill."

Xiao Zheng pointed to the corner.

Lin Xiaoya didn't respond; she had already run up the stairs to the second floor.

The wooden staircase is narrow, allowing only one person to pass at a time, but each step is polished to a very smooth finish.

Xiao Zheng followed behind.

The layout of the second floor is immediately apparent.

Directly opposite the staircase is the living room, with a huge floor-to-ceiling window that almost covers the entire wall, reflecting the shimmering light of the sea into the room, making it dazzlingly bright.

Two separate rooms are partitioned off on the left, one large and one small, the master bedroom and the second bedroom.

In the corner on the right, a closed space was partitioned off with wooden boards.

Lin Xiaoya pushed open the door and peeked inside.

Then, she froze completely.

Inside is a complete bathing area.

A huge wooden bathtub was placed against the wall, its walls polished smooth as a mirror, with a drain at the bottom and a water pipe leading directly to the area below the deck.

The partition is 1.8 meters high, with ventilation gaps at the top.

There was even a row of wooden hooks nailed in the corner for hanging clothes and towels.

Lin Xiaoya slowly turned around.

Xiao Zheng was leaning against the stairwell, arms crossed, looking at her.

"The private bathroom with a window that I promised you."

He paused.

"There are no windows, but the ventilation opening will do."

Lin Xiaoya did not respond.

She turned back and reached out to touch the side of the bathtub to confirm that it was real.

Then, she suddenly squatted down and covered her face with her hands.

"what?"

Xiao Zheng frowned.

Lin Xiaoya let out a suppressed, off-key scream through her fingers, then jumped up, her eyes red-rimmed, but her lips curled up in a wild smile.

She sniffed hard.

"You gave me a bathtub."

"Bath tub," Xiao Zheng corrected.

"A bathtub is fine too!"

Lin Xiaoya rushed out of the bathroom, grabbed Xiao Zheng's arm, and headed towards the master bedroom.

The master bedroom is just the right size to fit the premium wooden bed, and there's even a shelf built into the wall. The sliding window lets in the sea breeze as soon as it's opened.

"Put the bed here, and move the planter to the first floor..."

Lin Xiaoya has already started making plans on her own.

Xiao Zheng didn't interrupt her, and turned to go downstairs.

The perfect barbecue grill was moved into the first floor, and the moment the flames rose, the indoor temperature immediately became warm and stable.

The basic water purifier fits perfectly into the groove of the operating table.

He carried the four large planting boxes one by one to the first floor near the window and rearranged them.

Finally, he carried the premium wooden bed up to the second floor by himself and put it into the master bedroom; the size was just right.

After everything was settled, Xiao Zheng clapped his hands and went up to the second-floor balcony.

The sea breeze blew in my face, carrying a salty and damp scent.

A 150-square-meter deck stretched out beneath my feet, giant sails were half-furled on the masts, and the sea stretched out in all directions.

A pale golden shield enveloped the entire platform, and from this height, the boundaries of the light curtain were clearly visible.

He leaned against the railing, his view encompassing the entire sea, where no movement could escape his notice.

Footsteps came from the doorway.

Lin Xiaoya came out carrying two jade coconuts and handed one to Xiao Zheng.

She leaned against the side, took a sip of coconut juice, and looked at the sun-dappled gold on the sea surface.

There was silence for a few seconds.

"Senior."

"Um."

"Others are still fighting tooth and nail over a single plank of wood."

She turned her head to look at Xiao Zheng's profile.

"We're drinking coconut juice on the second-floor balcony."

Xiao Zheng raised the coconut and touched it with her.

"That makes sense."

Lin Xiaoya was amused, but stopped laughing halfway through and covered half her face with a coconut.

"Um... the second bedroom is mine, right?"

Xiao Zheng did not turn around.

"Would you like to stay in the master bedroom?"
