Facing such awareness from the other party.

He no longer thought about taking on the most complicated work himself.

Instead, he was busy with Qin Ruoyan.

However, Zhang Liu still tried his best to prevent other people's delicate hands from coming into contact with dirty things.

Notice his gentlemanly behavior.

There was more tenderness in Qin Ruoyan's eyes, and she wanted to love the other person more and more in her heart.

She understood that she had really found the boy she could entrust her life to.

or……

Why not let your sister marry into the family and get married yourself?

This way, she could immediately give him a child with the surname Zhang...

At this moment, this thought suddenly flashed through the eldest daughter of the Qin family's mind.

Today's weather is very nice.

Originally, Zhang Liu was very worried that it would rain while he was working.

You may end up in a terrifying state of working with "both soup and water".

By that time, there will be no help from heaven or earth.

However, the work was not completed until noon, when fires were built inside and outside the walls and the soil shell was dried with a large fire.

The sky remained densely covered with dark clouds.

Although the overall weather is a bit stuffy, it is really just stuffy.

Not even hot enough.

As long as you pay attention to staying hydrated while working, you can be very persistent.

"Ruoyan, shall we go to Teacher Zhou?" After finishing his work, Zhang Liu, who was standing in front of the fire that had already started burning, panting and sweating, spoke.

During this time, other girls who had finished their work also came over to help.

He didn't let anyone else get involved.

Just ask them to help carry the large pieces of firewood over.

After the firewood was delivered, Zhang Liu asked the girls to go to Zhou Fang to help.

I am still "acting alone" with Qin Ruoyan

Standing next to Zhang Liu, Qin Ruoyan rubbed the dirt on her hands carefully, and then she whispered, "Let's go wash our hands first?"

In Qin Ruoyan's opinion.

It was already noon, so Zhang Liu and I went to Zhou Fang and the others.

The final result is most likely that no work will be required.

Therefore, the most reliable behavior is to wash your hands in advance before going there.

Zhang Liu was slightly stunned when he heard Qin Ruoyan's words.

Then he realized the time issue and thought there was not much he could do to help if he went there.

So the two of them walked to the next bamboo sink next to the taro field and started washing their hands.

At the same time, Zhou Fang, Xiang Wanying, Gu Xixi, and Lan Yueting had already completed the digging and leveling of the septic tank and urinal with alloy shovels.

The digging of the pit was done by four people, while leveling the pit was done by Anya, Su Yan and others who came to help one after another.

Currently, they are using firewood to bake the soil just like Zhang Liu is doing.

This is done to remove as much moisture from the soil as possible, making it easier to lay the bricks later.

When Zhang Liu and Qin Ruoyan finished washing their hands and were about to walk over to the four people.

Zhou Fang and others also turned back to wash their hands and prepare for dinner.

I heard that the project over there has been completed and they are just waiting for the brick laying in the afternoon.

An expression of deep joy suddenly appeared on Zhang Liu's face.

Although none of them had experience in building walls.

However, in his opinion, building a wall is ultimately just a job of coating bricks with wood ash cement mortar and then laying them flat, which should be relatively simple in theory.

After all, I don't care about beauty or anything like that, as long as it can last for a while.

....................................

The task of cooking at noon was taken over by Zhao Yiran and Song Shuyao.

As for the others, they were resting in bamboo house No. 1.

Today the hen in bamboo house No. 2 was very helpful and laid another egg.

There are already three eggs in the wild egg nest.

But no one was prepared to move anymore.

After seeing the positive example of the little rabbit, they are more optimistic about the idea of ​​recycling food.

Even Anya began to think about how to get the lame male goat to "have sex" with the immature female goat as soon as possible...

At this moment, Xiang Wanying was sitting next to Zhang Liu. After hesitating for a few seconds, she spoke out her worries: "Zhang Liu, I'm actually a little worried. Will those bricks sink to the bottom and deform over time?"

Hear what Xiang Wanying said.

Zhou Fang, Gu Xixi, Lan Yueting, Qin Ruoyan and others who were also resting nearby also showed surprised expressions.

They had never thought about this before, but when it was brought up, they immediately realized that this situation was indeed possible.

After all, although bricks are made of fired clay, they are inherently much heavier than clay.

Zhang Liu gave a very positive answer to this question:

"Over time, this pit will definitely deform and sink to the bottom."

"Our excrement is always liquid."

“Although I will later put a layer of plant ash cement on the bricks to waterproof them.”

"But faced with salty excrement, this layer of cement may be corroded over time."

His explanation was so detailed that all the girls, including Xiang Wanying, were stunned for a moment.

What everyone heard yesterday was a "semi-permanent" toilet design...

He took in the stunned expressions on everyone's faces.

Then Zhang Liu smiled and said:

"It will indeed be a toilet for a long time to come."

Looking at Gu Xixi, the expressions on Gu Qingrou and others' faces changed from shock to confusion.

He added the second point: "But there is no foundation, so the soil will definitely deform under the pressure of heavy objects such as bricks and stones. Therefore, I just hope that this toilet can be used for a long time!"

After clearing his throat, Zhang Liu started talking about things other than the toilet.

“I will still proceed with masonry house construction after the rainy season is over.”

"By then we will need to lay a foundation here. Only a brick and stone house with a good foundation can be safe and stable. As for the toilet, we can simply build an additional one in the shape of one house and one septic tank, so we don't have to fight for the toilet in the morning..."

Zhang Liu's words surprised Lan Yueting, who had some experience on construction sites.

At this moment, she recalled the crazy buzzing of the cement vibrator on her own construction site, the tower crane that was at least ten meters high, and the cement piled up into a small mountain...

After hesitating for a few seconds, Lan Yueting asked in a low voice: "Zhang Liu, are you really going to lay the foundation?"

"Well, it's just laying the foundation..." With a slight smile, Zhang Liu said the operation method he was thinking about:

"Of course it's not like laying a foundation by just assuming steel bars and pouring concrete."

"My plan is to dig a pit and tamp the earth, and then use wood ash cement mixed with bamboo to replace the basic foundation."

Hearing such a detailed explanation, Lan Yueting nodded slightly.

Although it is not known whether bamboo can be used, there is indeed no building material on this deserted island that can surpass it.

Chapter 394: Anya gained face because of a man.

After talking about the foundation, Zhang Liu talked about the "floor"

"Then the house must not have a dirt floor anymore. It's too damp, and rainwater can easily seep in..."

"I'm going to dismantle all the wreckage of the plane and use it to lay the floor."

"The usable area above and below the wreckage on the seashore is about 20 square meters."

"And it's a double-story design, so our private room is about a dozen square meters."

"Adding the alloy plates on the walls, we can at least tear down the floors of seven rooms, no more, no less."

He touched the damp dirt ground near the fire with his foot, and then continued:

"Then I'll make a hole on the edge and build a simple stove for lighting or making a fire."

Regarding the idea proposed by Zhang Liu.

The girls all had expressions of deep shock on their faces.

But right now there is something more important to them.

That's lunch...

Because the smell of roasted taro and dried bird meat stewed with bracken has spread into the bamboo house, it is very tempting.

As Song Shuyao took the initiative to open the door of Bamboo House No. 1, everyone walked out and sat down one after another.

The little leopard that followed him out for a stroll was handed two pieces of dried bird meat by Lingying.

At this moment, he was lying at the door and chewing wildly.

He shoveled all the meat and bones into his stomach, and licked his lips as he did so.

After sleeping for a whole morning, the little guy prepared to go down the mountain for a good hunt in the afternoon.

Sitting next to the fire, Anya swallowed the taro in her mouth and said to Zhang Liu beside her:

"Zhang Liu, I want to take Yanyan and the others to the beach to cook salt and hunt some birds tomorrow."

Turning her head to look at the eight large earthenware jars that had been placed in the middle of the corridor, she asked casually:

"You're going to use up all the wood ash cement this afternoon, right?"

"Yes." Nodding, Zhang Liu looked at the earthen jar that Anya was looking at.

There are clusters of "quicklime eggs" inside.

Just pour in an appropriate amount of clean water to dissolve them and they will turn into eight cans of quicklime.

Then mix it with a small amount of sand and soil to make it a simplified version of cement.

To be honest, he didn't know if this was enough.

After all, I have to build two toilets.

And in order to achieve adequate waterproofing effect, a relatively thick layer of lime slurry must be applied.

"Well, then I have to bring a few more people with me, and also get some shells to make quicklime." Hearing Zhang Liu's affirmative answer, Anya also muttered softly.

Then she looked at everyone.

Compared to Zhang Liu who has the right to "directly select people", Anya knows that she can't do that.

At most, we could call Su Yan and Lan Yueting, with whom we have a better relationship.

So when it comes to "extra people to bring with you", she can only wait for everyone's response.

"Let's collect more this time. Xixi, Ruoyan, the three of us will join Anya's team."

Xiang Wanying noticed Anya's embarrassment.

Then she remembered Zhang Liu's behavior last night and took the initiative to give him face.
