I ride a big black tiger and fly through the world of beasts

Looking at the painting Chen Shiyue drew on the wooden board, Li asked in surprise: "Shiyue, is this the house you mentioned before?"

Chen Shiyue was slightly surprised and asked, "How did you know?"

Li pointed at the painting on the board and said, "Didn't you say before that houses are like caves and tents where people can live. A house can accommodate many people. The grids here are like caves."

Chen Shiyue smiled and said, "Our Li is really smart, yes, this is the house."

Li raised her head proudly and said, "That's right. Before you came, I was a smart and beautiful female. It was only after you came that I was outshined."

Honghua said disdainfully, "Li, stop shaking your head, your braid is hitting my face."

The females smiled happily.

Chen Shiyue drew the floor plan and renderings of the house. The floor plan was OK, but the renderings were a bit abstract. After her explanation, the females opened their eyes wide, and it turned out that the house was so good.

What is giving Chen Shiyue a headache now is the roof. She really doesn't want to use thatch to cover the roof. If it really doesn't work, she can just build the house first, use thatch on the roof first, and then replace it with other materials later.

Ya asked, "Shiyue, when do we start building the house?"

Chen Shiyue said: "It would be best to start preparing after the rain stops. However, now we have to study how to build it specifically. I can only think about it but not do it. I will go to the carpentry shed and let the orcs see how to build a house." As she spoke, she stood up, took the wooden board and walked towards the carpentry shed.

Li hurriedly caught up and said, "I'll go and take a look together."

The other females wanted to follow, but Ya stopped them, saying, "There are too many orcs over there, and they are all busy. Don't send too many people, or it will affect the orcs' work."

The females didn't follow.

Yu said, "Let's not waste time and continue making animal skin clothes. Ni'er, Cai'er, Luo, Man, I will teach you how to make animal skin clothes. Xiaocao, go and ask your father to bring some orcs to help."

When Chen Shiyue and Li arrived at the carpentry shed, the orcs' eyes lit up.

Mo Chen came forward faster than Yiyun and asked, "Shiyue, what's in your hand?"

Li smiled brightly and said, "It's a picture of a house."

After dressing up, Li looks healthy and beautiful, and her smile is even more attractive, which makes many single people stunned.

A white wolf orc stepped forward and said, "Li, I like you. I am willing to be your fourth partner."

Chen Shiyue... The beast world is really bold, proposing marriage anytime and anywhere.

Yiyun immediately stepped forward and put his arm around his partner's slender waist.

Chen Shiyue patted him on the shoulder and asked him why he was so nervous. It wasn't like he was proposing to her.

Yanyi, Wali and Yangguang looked at Li nervously. They really didn't want to have any more orcs in this family.

Li smiled again, looked at the white wolf orc and said, "You are really good-looking and strong. If it were before, I would have agreed. But now and in the future, I don't plan to have any more orcs. I have Yanyi, Wali and Yangguang, which are enough. You can find another female."

The white wolf orc said disappointedly: "Am I too late?"

Yan Yi, Wali and Yangguang were very happy, and Li promised that she would not look for other orcs in the future.

Another white wolf orc hugged the previous white wolf orc and said, "Let's go and do something. Don't be sad. Being rejected by a female is not a big deal."

Yiyun picked up the wooden board painted by Chen Shiyue and asked, "Is this a house?"

Several orcs leaned over from behind Yiyun and asked, "House?"

The beastmen were too close, making Yiyun feel uncomfortable. He put the drawing board in the middle and said, "Yueyue, tell everyone how to build a house."

Chen Shiyue pointed to the drawing board and said, "This picture is the structure of the house. Each grid represents a room, which is where people live. This is the rendering of the house, which is what it will look like after it is built. As for how to build a house, I don't know how to do it, so we need everyone to think about it together. However, I still know the materials needed to build a house. The foundation, which is the underground part of the house, is best made of stone. If there is not enough stone, mix crushed stone with soil. For the time being, let's use wood for the house. Until there is a better material, use thatch for the roof."

Langke thought: "I roughly know how to build a house. Shiyue, can't the house be placed directly on the ground like a tent?"

Chen Shiyue said: "If there is no foundation, the soil underground is relatively soft, which is OK for a short period of time. But over time, rainwater will seep in and the house will sink or tilt, and it will not be able to withstand wind and rain. With a foundation, the house will be more solid. A good house can be lived in for countless winter seasons. A tent like this will become old after only one or two winter seasons at most."

Being able to live here for countless winter seasons was so tempting that the orcs' eyes lit up.

Yiyun said, "Just build the foundation that Yueyue mentioned. Once the rain stops, Dad Mochen, take the orcs to look for more stones nearby."

Mo Chen nodded and said, "Okay, I'll bring back all the stones I see on the road."

Chen Shiyue said: "Aunt Mo Chen, if you find any sticky soil, please bring it back for me to see." Perhaps, he could try making bricks and tiles.

Next, the orcs discussed how to build a house. They talked a lot and the atmosphere was lively.

Yiyun said: "Yueyue, let's build a small house first, and you can see if it is right. If it is right, we will build a big house according to the appearance of the small house. If it is not right, we can modify it and build it again."

Chen Shiyue nodded and said, "That's a good idea. Let's make a house model first."

Yinfeng said, "Let's each build a small house first, and then compare who did the best. Then we can build the big house based on the small house that did better."

Yiyun said: "Okay, that's it."

Most of the orcs were a little confused. Even if they had looked at the diagram many times, they still didn't know how to build a small house. Forget it, they admitted that they were not smart orcs. This kind of thing should be done by smart orcs, so they would just be responsible for doing the work.

The violent storms, heavy rain, lightning and thunder could no longer affect the orcs and females in Yaocheng. They were very busy. The females were weaving and making clothes, the orcs were studying houses, and those who were not interested in studying did some simple carpentry work. Anyway, they would not be idle.

When Chiqing's father was not cooking, he was also learning how to do things in the woodworking shed. The little ones were not idle either, gathering around the orcs to look here and there and learning a lot.

The house model was eventually made by some orcs. The best ones were Langke and Langs, followed by Yiyun and Yinfeng. Yanyi also did a good job, and Kava also did a good job. Finally, it was decided to build the house according to the house model made by Langke.

By making house models, many orcs have learned the essence of house construction. Next, they just need to wait for the weather to get better and then start collecting materials for building houses.

After two days of heavy rain, the rain suddenly stopped.

The orcs and the females were so excited that even a break would make them happy. Everyone went out to take a look. The females either sat on the orcs' backs or were held in their mouths.

Chen Shiyue was carried out by the half-beast Yiyun and went to the river bank first. She found that the river water had flooded to the middle of the sandbags piled up by the orcs. The sandbags were solid and were not washed away by the river water.

Yinfeng was surprised at the effect of the earthbags and said with a happy face: "This earthbag is really good. I will make more and make them higher. The earthbags in some places are a little loose and need to be replaced."

Chen Shiyue smiled and said, "The embankment that Deputy City Lord Yinfeng was in charge of successfully blocked the water, which is cause for celebration."

What does "happy and congratulating" mean? Although Yinfeng didn't fully understand, he knew it was a good thing, and smiled instantly and said, "Shiyue's idea is good."

Yinfeng's heroic smile, coupled with his nearly perfect face, was very attractive. Chen Shiyue couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Yiyun said calmly: "If there were no two river channels upstream, these embankments built with earth bags might not be able to completely block the river water."

Yinfeng... I don't expect Yiyun to say anything good.

They went upstream again and looked at the two diversion channels filled with water. Yinfeng had to admit that if there was no diversion, with such continuous heavy rain, the height of the sandbags they made would not be able to stop the surging water.

What if the rain gets heavier and continues?

Yinfeng felt that the earthbags were not strong enough and their height and width must be increased.
