Chapter 928 Building a Wall

 Li Tieniu came back that night.

Lin Dawang saw no one.

Jiang Xiaoxiao looked at Li Tieniu, who had a dark face, "What's going on? Did Lin Dawang leave you alone and leave?"

 Li Tieniu scratched his neck and became angry.

"This Lin Dawang, not only did he leave me behind, he also took it upon himself to find Mr. Wu alone. He said that he was Lin Dawang from Linjia Village, and then kicked me away. Mr. Jiang, this Lin Dawang may have something wrong. He probably thinks They learned how to make snowflake salt, so they won't have to worry about sales if they become a noble person.

 I think he wants to break up the gang, but today he didn't even pay attention to me. I can only come back alone. "

 Li Tieniu became arrogant when he thought of Lin Dawang's virtues. This was completely different from the way he behaved when he learned how to make snowflake salt with him a few days ago.

 It is really a dog.

Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled slightly, "Since Lin Dawang wants to go it alone, let him and we do our thing."

Recently, we need to urge people to repair the city wall as soon as possible. We don’t want to make it strong and durable, but just build it.

Li Tieniu hates the fact that iron cannot become steel.

Ms. Jiang is so kind-hearted, how could she ignore Lin Dawang!

Lin Dawang is an ungrateful bastard.

 The project in Lijiacun is progressing very quickly.

Li Tieniu built the city wall based on Jiang Gongzi's suggestion and followed the progress of ancient concrete and cement walls.

 Of course it is actually very simple and easy.

The yellow soil here is mixed with glutinous rice flour, plus glutinous rice water, and some sand to form a simple version of cement.

Although this kind of cement wall is not as hard as modern cement walls, it is quite strong.

 Li Tieniu personally supervised the work.

Of course, the strong men in the village did not have time to build the city wall. The main reason was that the strong men in the village still had their work to do. The grain in the fields was about to be harvested, so they had to be busy with the work in the fields.

 Their plan is to be prepared with both hands.

Of course, the villagers' autumn harvesting work is proceeding steadily. The 18 strong men in the village have not missed two hours of training every day even though they are harvesting autumn.

 For them, no wind or rain can stop their enthusiasm for training.

They know that although these training methods may seem simple and harsh, for them, they are life-saving skills.

Jiang Xiaoxiao taught them not only various battle techniques, but also various cooperative formations.

 These are also the various methods Jiang Xiaoxiao learned in the training room of the end of the world. They have no problem dealing with monsters, let alone ordinary people.

 What they are doing now is a clever trick for everyone to cooperate.

 The 400 people who built the city wall were actually building the city wall very quickly. Because these people had three meals a day, they had enough to eat.

 From the thick porridge for the first three days, they have now begun to eat dry rice. They even have one dish with meat every day, which is called a meat dish.

Everyone was satisfied and grateful after eating the oily meat dishes.

These meat dishes benefit from the young people in the village who go hunting in the mountains from time to time and catch some prey.

 They improve everyone’s lives, but they have to eat meat for training anyway.

 The villagers also need to eat meat to improve their lives, and these refugees eat meat along with them.

These people benefited from the nourishment of these good meals, and the bodies of these 400 people became stronger day by day. They were grateful to the people in Lijia Village for being so kind to them.

These people are working hard, fearing that they will be kicked out if they are not active. You must know that now you and your family can have enough to eat and drink, and there is also meat to eat, and a house to protect you from the wind and rain. , compared with their wandering outside, this kind of life is simply a happy time to catch up with immortals.

They don’t know how the immortals in the sky live. They just know that even if they had eaten all the tree roots and turf before, they still couldn’t fill their stomachs.

 Looking at family members becoming emaciated one by one, some even died in front of one's eyes. They even had to sell their children, daughters, and even wives just for a bite of food.

 The current life is extremely happy for them.

Everyone worked hard, for fear that the people in the village would dislike them. Of course, the people who took the lead in working hard also had small thoughts in their hearts. They were eager to work well and strive to make the people of Lijia Village like them.

They saw that there were many vacant houses in Lijia Village, and the life of the villagers in Lijia Village was also quite good. If they could stay here and become people of Lijia Village, wouldn't they not have to go out to be exposed to the wind and sun in the future? Do you want to beg for food?

Wouldn’t this get more than what they would get by building a city wall?

There are not a few people who have this idea. After all, this is dozens of households, and the heads of each household have already made up their minds.

Even the elders and children of the family have discussed one purpose, which is to perform well and finish the work, and discuss with the leader, Mr. Jiang, to allow them to stay in Lijiacun.

That’s considered living a good life.

 There are not a few people who have this kind of mentality.

So it took less than half a month to surround them, and an earth wall about five meters high had been built around the village.

Of course, the reason why the speed is so fast is because Jiang Xiaoxiao’s requirements are not precise, and he simply follows the rough production method.

Instead of making adobe, a lot of stones were mixed into the sand and yellow mud, and local materials were used. In this way, a simple concrete was formed and placed directly on top.

This kind of wall is quite easy.

 There is a two-meter-wide platform on top of the five-meter-high earthen wall.

The earthen wall is like the city wall on the other side of Fucheng. It also has crenellations and observation openings, so that if someone attacks, you can attack directly from the top. Of course, they don't have weapons like bows and arrows like the officers and soldiers, even if they are above If there are crenels, I'm afraid the means of attack will be limited.

They were able to build so quickly mainly because the terrain of Lijia Village was very good. Behind their village was a big mountain, and in front was a dirt road, so as long as they built in front of the village and around the mountain, The city wall is actually equivalent to surrounding the village.

 Save a lot of effort.

 There is a strong gate in front. As long as the gate is closed, a closed fortress will be formed in the village.

 If the gate is open, it is not a problem to get in and out of oxcarts and carriages, and people's daily life will not be affected.

In order to be more stable, the gate they made is quite strong. Just for this wooden gate, dozens of trees were cut down from the mountain.

　　It took several carpenters to work day and night for ten days to build this strong wooden door.

In particular, the outside of this wooden door was painted with fire-resistant paint. This was the unique wisdom of the ancients. Fire-resistant paint had long been available in this era.

Seeing that the city wall had been built, the 80 families were a little anxious. Seeing that the work was done, if they were not left behind, they would soon be displaced again, so representatives of each family came directly to Mr. Jiang and Li Tieniu. .

Li Tieniu has now risen to the occasion. With the recommendation of the clan elders, he has now become the village chief of Lijia Village, and he is also the youngest village chief.
