Chapter 86 Exploring Fire Time and Space
When Shen Yi saw these things appearing out of nowhere in his home, even though he was mentally prepared enough, he couldn't help but be surprised.
"Wife! You are so powerful? How come you can even get such a delicate knife?" After being surprised, Shen Yi's expression became more serious.
The Langya Kingdom had very strict controls on dangerous iron tools. If a home had extra iron tools such as knives or axes, it had to be reported to the village chief, who would then report it to the township chief. If a knife or axe was broken, it had to be handed in in exchange for a small amount of silver to purchase a new one.
Su Tai noticed that Shen Yi's face looked wrong, and she was inexplicably nervous, "Is there something wrong?"
Chen Yi sighed helplessly and picked out the knives and scissors. "I'll go to the village chief's house tomorrow and tell him. The rest is not a big deal. Just don't make a fuss about it."
Su Tai nodded quickly, "I plan to use this pot to cook, which can save some firewood and is also convenient to clean up. With this kettle, it will be much more convenient to drink water in the future."
After Shen Yi understood the uses of those things, he felt that this was indeed a relief, so he took the knives and went out.
Shen Ying, the village chief of Shenjiazhuang, saw the knives that Shen Yi brought over, and his eyes lit up. He asked excitedly, "Shen Yi! Where did you buy these things? They look more exquisite than those made by the blacksmith in town! They even put wooden handles on them and polished and painted them. How thoughtful!"
Shen Yi's heart was slightly moved, but his expression remained calm, "My father-in-law bought it for us. If the village chief wants it, I will ask him later."
"Okay, okay! Then uncle will wait for your good news! Oh, by the way, did you catch any fish in the Daxun River this year?" Shen Ying was in a good mood and asked a question.
Shen Yi's heart trembled, and he raised his eyebrows imperceptibly, "That's what happened, what's wrong?"
Shen Ying patted his thigh and gave him a thumbs up exaggeratedly, "I told you that you are a capable guy! Many people in the village wanted to learn how to catch fish from you, so they all went to the Daxun River to set up their fish baskets, but they only caught a few melons and dates. I told them that you are a river ferryman, dealing with water since childhood, and have inherited skills from your ancestors. With the blessing of your ancestors, no creature in the water dares to mess with you after you enter the water.
The others had a hard time even trying to get rid of the water, so they decided not to bother. At first they didn't believe it and said that I was biased towards them. As a result, after two days of hard work, one person fell into the water and was luckily rescued to shore but caught a cold. The other two were also sick after being outside in the wind for two days.
The villagers were frightened by their miserable condition, and finally no one went to the river to fish anymore. But everyone is thinking about your fish, and would like to ask if you have any fish to sell by the end of the year?"
Shen Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his expression softened a lot, "Of course there are, but I can't guarantee how much."
"It's okay, it's okay. How do you calculate the price?" Shen Ying looked at Shen Yi eagerly.
The corners of Shen Yi's mouth twitched slightly, and he thought about what Han said, "Fish under two catties are 45 cents per catty. Big ones are more expensive, but big fish are hard to catch, so it's too early to say that now."
"That's right! Then uncle will be waiting for your fish!" Shen Ying smiled from ear to ear, and said as he sent Shen Yi out the door.
Shen Yi returned home with the knife and told Su Tai about the situation.
Su Tai sneered, but didn't say anything. She just pondered and said, "I think we need to keep two dogs. In the future, there will be more and more ways for our family to make money, and there will be many people eyeing our family. Now everyone is just imitating. When they find that imitating doesn't work, someone will definitely have evil intentions."
Shen Yi's face tensed and he nodded heavily, "I remember Uncle Qi's dyeing workshop had a few dogs. The last time we went there, the dog seemed to be pregnant. I don't know if she gave birth yet? I'll drive the donkey cart over there tomorrow."
The Daxun River is now three feet frozen, and it is no problem to ride a horse on it.
Su Tai nodded, feeling a little relieved.
Shen Yi still had a serious look on his face, as if he was worried about the safety of their family.
The next day, he actually carried a telescopic iron ladder to the top of the wall and planned to build the wall. Judging from his posture, it was estimated that he was planning to build the stone wall to a height of two meters, completely eliminating the possibility of outsiders climbing over the wall.
Su Tai felt at ease with the high wall blocking his way, so she let him do whatever he wanted.
It just so happens that I haven’t explored the Fire Spacetime that I unlocked yesterday, so I’ll take this opportunity to go in and take a look.
Pushing open the door of time and space, Su Tai found herself on that familiar street again, but this time there was no store in front of her, but a private brick kiln factory, covering an area of more than 1,000 square meters, specializing in firing various building materials, such as cement, lime, sand and gravel, hollow bricks, sintered bricks, insulation bricks, refractory bricks, landscape bricks, ceramic bricks, marble bricks, etc., which made her dazzled.
Thinking of Shen Yi preparing to build a wall, this was like a pillow for a sleepy person! She hurried over to ask about the price.
A hollow brick costs 0.8 yuan, and a fired brick costs 0.5 yuan. They are very suitable for building walls, but the color of fired bricks is too bright, so hollow bricks are better.
According to the length and width of the walls of the house, a total of 4,200 bricks are needed, costing a total of 3,360 yuan.
I also bought some cement, lime, sand and gravel, totaling two thousand yuan.
When she agreed, the other party immediately received the payment and had someone count the more than 4,000 bricks.
She really couldn't move all these bricks, cement, sand and gravel by herself, but fortunately she had a powerful medium transport truck. After the building materials were loaded on the truck, she just had to start the car and return to the Time and Space Gate Transfer Station, then return to the room alone, run to the backyard, enter the Time and Space Gate Transfer Station from the backyard, get in the car and start the engine, and the next moment, the medium tool will deliver all the bricks to the Shen family's backyard.
After all the building materials were dumped, Su Tai swiftly sent the medium truck back to the transfer station and took a look at the rules for the use of Fire Space.
Like the Fire Spacetime and the Gold Spacetime, you need to spend a certain amount of virtual currency to upgrade. To upgrade from level one to level two, you need to spend at least 10,000 virtual coins.
She glanced at her virtual currency balance, smiled, and hurried back to the backyard.
Shen Yi, who was measuring on the top of the wall, was startled when he heard the noise in the backyard. When he came down from the iron ladder and rushed over, he saw Su Tai squatting in front of a pile of bricks and stones.
"Xiaotai, these are..."
Su Tai stood up and excitedly pulled him over. "I got the building materials. Don't you want to build a wall? These hollow bricks are just right. Use cement to sew the edges. It will be strong and sturdy, and can withstand wind and rain."
Shen Yi pinched her face lovingly, "Since you have prepared the materials for me, I would be sorry for these things if I don't work."
Su Tai smiled awkwardly and hurried over to help.
It was the coldest time of the year and there were almost no people walking around in the village. Their home was not located in a densely populated village, so no one would notice what they did.
The first to realize that something was wrong was Shen Zhuang, who lived not far from Shen Yi's home.
"Wife, look, am I dazzled?" Chen Zhuang stood at the door of the main hall, tiptoed and looked towards Chen Yi's house, "Why has Ayi's house become taller?"
Xu looked up and cursed, "Are your eyes dim in broad daylight?"
Just as she finished speaking, she saw the wall of Shen Yi's house. She was so scared that the sewing basin in her arms fell over. "What's going on? Go and check it out!"
