Building materials require slaked lime, which is essentially quicklime with water added. It reacts naturally, releasing a large amount of heat.

It then naturally becomes slaked lime.

In fact, this is the same material used in later self-heating hot pots and similar products.

Gu Yunyang didn't participate, not because he didn't know how, but because he couldn't take over the team members' work.

They're calculating work points for this.

Gu Yunyang doesn't have to do any work; as the brigade secretary, he gets ten work points every day.

During the busy farming season, I, like the brigade leader, was given twelve work points.

Over the course of a year, it adds up to quite a bit.

Although Gu Yunyang didn't think much of it.

Just then, Gu Yunyang looked into the distance.

A child ran over: "Captain, Secretary, the hunting team is back. They're over at the brigade headquarters."

Gu Yunyang raised an eyebrow; he was finally back.

Gu Hanping also breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Gu Yunyang: "Let's go take a look. Why are we still a day late? When I got up this morning, I was already planning that if they didn't come back today, I would have Botao take people into the mountains to look for them."

Gu Yunyang nodded, and the two walked side by side toward the brigade headquarters.

Gu Yunyang said, "It's probably a minor problem. Lord Dechang is a very calm person. If it were a big deal, he would have sent someone out to call for help long ago."

As for being fine, then they will definitely return as scheduled.

Even if Gu Yunyang didn't say it, Gu Hanping knew it.

"I just don't know how well we've fared this time."

"Let's go take a look. There's plenty of game this time of year, so the harvest should be decent."

In fact, Gu Yunyang knew all of this.

If Gu Yunyang hadn't known that they had only had a minor incident, he would have already led his men in to look for them.

Gu Yunyang actually knew about Uncle Dechang and the others' return earlier than Gu Hanping and the others.

They just didn't show it; they remained the same as always.

Nothing bad happened, and Gu Yunyang didn't intend to show anything.

To avoid being discovered.

Before they knew it, they had arrived at the brigade headquarters.

It's still quite lively here; the adults have all gone up the mountain to weed the fruit trees and catch insects.

Although many of them just dawdle at work.

At the end of the day, you can earn about five or six work points.

Of course, the scorekeeper will still check; if the weeds haven't been pulled out or the insects haven't been removed, then no points will be awarded.

Of course, you also need to bring the bugs you catch back to feed the chickens.

The team members are still working very hard.

There are also some children here.

Uncle Dechang looked worried, and Gu Hanping's heart skipped a beat: "Something happened?"

He thought to himself.

He quickly took two steps forward and asked when he got closer, "Uncle Dechang, what happened?"

Gu Yunyang, on the other hand, was much calmer; he knew what had happened.

However, at this moment, he also pretended to look over anxiously.

Xiang Dechang said somewhat embarrassedly, "Captain, I've returned with my men. Two of them sprained their ankles, and another was bitten by a snake. That's why we're late."
