Traveling through the mountains and farming

Since everyone had to work together to build their new home recently and could not divide their energy to cook for themselves, they decided to eat together in a big pot before the house was completed.

Therefore, a logistics support team consisting of grandmothers from each family was set up to be responsible for everyone's meals.

That’s right, it’s three meals a day, which Lin Wan actively fought for.

When she heard that everyone was going to eat from a big pot, she immediately stood up and suggested implementing a three-meal system.

And gave sufficient reasons: the current stage is the period of the highest labor intensity for everyone, in order to ensure that everyone has sufficient physical strength to advance the construction of their homes.

You also have to plan ahead so that if you encounter danger, you will have better energy to deal with it.

Finally, everyone thought it was reasonable and agreed to implement the three meals a day system during the "big pot" period.

Each family hands over a certain amount of food and ingredients according to the number of people, and the logistics support team arranges meals to ensure that everyone can eat hot meals in a timely manner.

In this way, everyone can devote themselves more fully to the construction of their new home without having to worry about daily meals.

They also assigned a captain to each team, who would take the lead in executing the agreed tasks.

Lin Wan took the initiative to join the hunting and gathering team.

She wanted to go out into the mountains and discover some new food.

After the meeting, she took the two siblings back to the place they had chosen to build the house, ready to re-imagine their future home based on the site.

They have divided the area for each household to build a house according to each household's own intentions and the actual situation of the cave.

Lin Wan chose the first location close to the cave entrance on the cliff side.

Just as Lin Wan was explaining her ideas for the new home to her two siblings, Li Changyi, the captain of the housing construction team, came over.

It turned out that he thought Lin Wan's family had the fewest people, so he planned to build her house first.

Moreover, he had helped Lin Wan build a house before, so he knew that she had some ideas about her own house.

So he wanted to first talk to Lin Wan about her specific requirements for the house.

After learning about Li Changyi's purpose of visit, Lin Wan elaborated on her idea of ​​building a house with two bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen, a bathroom and a small courtyard.

The size of each room and the approximate layout of the cave were all clearly depicted on site.

Her only regret was that there were no conditions to build a toilet in the cave, so she had to settle for the next best thing and build a shower room.

I plan to get a bathtub and a toilet to solve the problems of bathing and going to the toilet. I just need to be diligent and clean and change the water every day.

After listening to Lin Wan's detailed explanation, Li Changyi thought that it would be very convenient if every household could express their ideas so clearly.

He suddenly had an idea. Lin Wan in front of him had a lot of ideas.

So he asked Lin Wan how to build a reasonable and comfortable house based on the actual situation of the cave and the number of people in each household.

As a practitioner with more than ten years of experience in project planning, Lin Wan has studied many different housing types, including modern three-generation living households, large families, and single apartments.

After hearing Li Changyi's request, he combined it with the actual situation and expressed his own ideas one by one.

We also remind you to pay attention to the lighting and ventilation of the cave. It is recommended to reserve space on the wall in each room for oil lamps/torches, and to open the windows as large as possible to increase lighting.

After hearing Lin Wan's many novel suggestions, Li Changyi immediately ran to discuss with others.

After a while, Lin Wan saw them taking tools and preparing to go out to cut wood and dig soil.

At this time, Uncle Li was leading a farming and breeding team, carrying hoes and working hard on the land on the edge of the cliff.

Looking around, there were old people, women and children everywhere.

Two siblings were also among them.

While Lin Wan and Li Changyi were discussing, they were pulled outside by Li Chongping and others to help.

From a distance, they were explaining the steps of land reclamation seriously with other friends in a very professional manner.

While the adults were discussing how to build their home, these two sensible kids took their friends outside to dig earthworms and pull grass to feed the five chicks.

Li Chongle also planted those stevia plants and found a hidden corner on the gentle slope to sprinkle stevia seeds.

In order to ensure everyone's living safety, they decided to complete the security and defense facilities of the new home today and tomorrow.

So these days Luo Dashan led the men of the hunting and gathering team to help set up traps outside the cave entrance and on the east and west sides of the gentle slope. He will not lead the team out hunting and gathering for the time being.

After Li Changyi left, Lin Wan became free, and she prepared to help with the reclamation of wasteland.

Nowadays, they will spontaneously go to work in the fields whenever they have free time.

At this time, several shouts came from the cave entrance on the gentle slope:

"Come on! Come on! Bring us some barrels."

It turned out that Luo Dashan and his team, who had gone out to carry large rocks to block the outer entrance of the cave, had returned.

They found a pool of water not far away, which was full of big fish.

They first moved the big rocks back and prepared to go fishing again with the tools to catch fish.

Everyone was attracted by their shouting and gathered around curiously.

Luo Dashan said to everyone with a happy face:

"We are in for a treat. The fish in the pond are big and fat. We can improve our meals."

When Lin Wan heard this, she smiled and said, "That's great, Uncle Dashan, catch more later. We can keep them in the stream in the cave, and we can catch them whenever we want to eat them."

Luo Dashan laughed and said, "Okay, Lin Wan's idea is good. Let's move quickly and try to catch more."

Is this still the same taciturn Uncle Dashan from before?

Once he arrived in the mountains, Uncle Dashan seemed like a different person, and he looked much more lively.

In the end, Luo Dashan took a few people who were good at fishing and set off with wooden barrels.

Lin Wan was full of curiosity about the surrounding environment. In addition, they came in in the dark last night and had no idea what the outside was like.

She really wanted to go out and take a look, so she suggested going along to help watch the fish on the shore, and then she could also observe the surrounding environment at the same time.

So, Lin Wan followed Luo Dashan and the others to the pond, and Luo Fang also took the opportunity to follow.

The water surface was sparkling, the pool was surrounded by green trees, the aquatic plants on the shore were lush and swaying, and from time to time, big fish could be seen swimming in the water.

Luo Dashan, Li Chongwu and others quickly rolled up their trouser legs and rushed into the pool impatiently.

Like agile otters, attacking the fish in the water.

It wasn't long before they caught a barrel.

Lin Wan watched for a while on the shore and then prepared to take a walk around the area.

Just as everyone was immersed in the joy of catching fish, Lin Wan suddenly discovered that something seemed to be moving in the reeds in the distance.

She was startled and shouted quickly, "Uncle Dashan, look over there!"

Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked in the direction Lin Wan pointed.
