Chapter 111 Shelter Matters

At the same time, Chu Wenxi and Zhou Yue can also start to eat more good-grade food to improve their physical fitness.

These days, they have been doing their best, responsible for both ice transportation and making charcoal to earn resources.

In the trade with Zhao Cheng and Yang Zhenghe, Qi Yuan obtained a large amount of white pine sand, ice crystals, and good-grade charcoal.

Most of the white pine sand has been put into the pond to provide storage space for fish and shrimp.

Ice crystals are used to build basement ice cellars.

The total amount of good-grade wood has reached more than 25,000, equivalent to 2,500 spirit coins.

Now in the shelter, more than 40,000 ordinary-grade wood has been made into charcoal for sale and exchanged for good-grade materials.

However, the business of the charcoal industry is almost coming to a halt.

As the weather recovers rapidly, the demand for charcoal from seekers has decreased. Now even if charcoal is not used, it will not be too cold at night.

So for the next period of time, the two of them can stop making charcoal for the time being. Start doing other work.

Qi Yuan will focus most of his attention on various matters in the shelter.

For example, the business of spirit coins, preparations before high temperature, defense of the shelter, planting, breeding, etc., all need their help.

...

After eating and exercising.

Qi Yuan first took out four bottles of healing potions and sent them to Zhong Maiyun to sell in the store.

At the same time, it was found that there were still 3 bottles of healing potions left in the warehouse.

It seems that no good-level beasts have approached the fog area of ​​the shelter in the past few days, so there are no new beast corpses to replenish.

If you want to maintain the business of healing potions, you must collect good-level beast corpses as soon as possible.

Even go out hunting to obtain more sources of blood and flesh essence.

This matter can be handed over to the black tiger queen bee after it recovers.

...

After that, Qi Yuan came to the basement again.

The construction of the ice cellar is still a very concerned issue.

As soon as you enter the basement, you can clearly feel that the temperature inside is very low.

A large number of transparent ice blocks are piled in the basement.

Qi Yuan plans to build 5 20-square-meter ice houses in the entire basement.

Now, five ice house locations have been roughly separated in the basement.

2 ice houses are built on the left and 3 ice houses are built on the right, with a corridor of about one meter between them.

Although the outlines of the five ice houses have been built, the interior is not completely filled with ice blocks.

In addition, some of the ice blocks have begun to melt.

The main reason is that the number of ice crystals is too large, so only some of the ice blocks can be guaranteed not to melt.

However, this problem is not difficult to solve.

Qi Yuan took out 500 ice crystals, which were sent by Zhao Cheng.

Adding the original ice crystals, the total number is nearly 1,250.

Distribute the 1,250 ice crystals evenly among my five ice houses. Almost every ice house can be inlaid with more than 250 ice crystals.

At the junction of two ice houses, because they share a wall, some ice crystals can be saved.

Qi Yuan looked up and found that the five ice houses had been capped.

So, all the extra ice crystals were inlaid into the ice blocks on the top of the ice house.

Ice crystals can continuously release cold air, and ice blocks can lock in cold air, greatly slowing down the speed of cold air loss.

To a large extent, the basement ice cellar can be kept at a low temperature for a long time.

However, in hot weather, there is another very important problem.

That is the water source.

Qi Yuan planned to fill three of the five igloos with ice. As a source of fresh water in hot weather.

However, Qi Yuan was still a little worried.

If the ice in the three igloos was only for drinking water, it would be enough.

But if you want to meet the needs of water use, it is likely to be stretched.

Therefore, you must find another way to store a batch of fresh water while the water source is still sufficient.

The best way is to build an underground reservoir.

But it is easier said than done.

It is difficult to build even a small reservoir with only one person's strength.

Moreover, many problems need to be considered.

For example, excavation, leakage, collapse, transportation, force... and other multi-faceted problems.

Just thinking about the complicated process, Qi Yuan felt that he was willing but not capable enough.

"It seems that we have to think of other ways... I just don't know if there is an underground river under the shelter."

Qi Yuan thought about the fresh water problem silently, but he didn't think of a good solution, so he could only put it aside for the time being.

Now, let's continue to prepare for the basement ice cellar.

In order to get ice cubes more quickly, Qi Yuan decided to do it himself.

Because both storage boxes and dimensional backpacks can quickly transport a large amount of ice cubes.

Back to the warehouse, I found that there are only 3 storage boxes now.

It should be Chu Wenxi and Zhou Yue, who are also using storage boxes to transport ice cubes.

A storage box has an internal space of 5 cubic meters.

A dimensional backpack has an internal space of 8 cubic meters.

Added together, it is 33 cubic meters.

Just one delivery can transport a whole room of ice cubes.

However, Qi Yuan tried, but he couldn't put the storage box back into the Dimensional Backpack.

As both are space-type items, the two cannot be stacked again, so they can only be used separately.

Although it is a pity, it is not a big problem.

Qi Yuan called back Chu Wenxi and Zhou Yue and began to rearrange the tasks.

The two of them only need to find ice and snow, make ice cubes, and then put the ice cubes into the storage box.

As for the work of transporting the storage box, it can be directly handed over to the Guardian Thorns.

What surprised Qi Yuan was that the two of them were obviously not very smart.

They actually kept running to transport the storage box, and had no intention of asking the Guardian Thorns for help.

They ran back and forth, but the efficiency was not high.

This made Qi Yuan a little tired.

For a moment, I didn't know whether to doubt their work attitude or their IQ.

Even riding that bicycle is faster than running with legs.

There were no roads in the primeval forest before, so bicycles were not easy to use.

But now in the foggy area, all the trees, weeds and stones have been cleared, and riding a bicycle is easy.

But fortunately, now they are just asked to make ice cubes, there should be no big problems.

During the process of making ice cubes these days, Qi Yuan also discovered some situations.

Although there are a lot of ice cubes on the river surface and it is very convenient to collect them, there is a big problem.

Irregularity!

The space in the basement is limited, and ice cubes must be stored with maximum efficiency.

Irregular ice cubes greatly affect the space utilization rate.

Therefore, Qi Yuan finally decided to use snow to make ice bricks.

Although the process is slower, the quality is higher.

After arranging the two matters of making ice cubes, Qi Yuan returned to the yard to check the situation of the black tiger bee colony.

After returning from the battle, Qi Yuan released them from the dimensional backpack and let them return to the hive to recuperate.

So there is no specific understanding of the specific situation of the bee colony.

At the hive, the black tiger queen bee is working hard to contribute to the growth of the bee colony.

It seems that the black tiger queen bee has indeed turned over a new leaf and is determined to become a bee again.

Her performance these days has changed a lot from before.
