Chapter 108 Stone Hoe



Now, Li Sheng's hands are covered with extremely thick calluses. He no longer has to worry about getting blisters or even blood blisters on his hands due to excessive workload. These calluses are the result of his daily weightlifting at the gym. With the protection of these calluses, he can exert more strength and move faster.

Li Sheng's physical strength was astonishing. After chopping down one tree, he would immediately start chopping down the next one without resting. These were not small trees that were easy to chop down. It would take an ordinary person more than ten minutes to chop down each section, and they would have to rest after a few strokes. But Li Sheng saw each axe very accurately and chopped it down one after another. The twenty-pound axe seemed to have no weight in Li Sheng's hands.

It only takes him five minutes to finish one section, but he doesn't deal with the details. He'll take care of the details later in the evening. He'll accumulate some work during the day and do it at night. It's dark for a long time, and he and Naituan are both short sleepers, so they don't need to sleep for eight hours unless they are extremely tired.

Six hours is already considered a lazy sleep. If he has a regular lifestyle, he only needs to sleep for four to five hours. Since he is growing, six hours is definitely enough.

So the father and daughter share similar hobbies. They go back to their room at 10 o'clock, listen to light music and read books until 1 or 2 o'clock before going to sleep. Around 6 or 7 o'clock, they wake up again, lie in bed, close their eyes, plan their tasks for the day, or look at the scenery outside the window to prepare themselves before getting up again.

So when Naituan was at her maternal grandparents' house, she became the "child" in other people's eyes.

With Li Shengfei's lightning speed, the five coconut trees, each over ten or twenty meters long, were now transformed into timbers six or seven meters long. Even the short scraps were not wasted. Because the wooden house was not a single-story building and needed to allow rainwater to flow down, it had a triangular sloping roof. When the height reached more than two meters, some of the timbers no longer needed. A one-meter-wide doorway was also created at the front, so the timbers on both sides only needed to be 2.5 meters long.

"Alright, now that the coconut tree trunks have been processed, the streamer isn't a robot and needs a rest too. Let the streamer take a break and do some lighter work."

Holding the stone drill bit that Naituan had polished, he began searching for a suitable round wooden stick and vine rope. He had made stone drill bits before, but since Naituan was small, he wanted to make them better so that Naituan wouldn't have to exert so much effort to use them. This required him to use the knowledge in his mind.

Either your body is on the road or your mind is on the road. This isn't rest; it's incredibly intense.

This isn't what netizens think rest is like. It's finding a shady spot on the beach, lying down, drinking coconut juice, and crossing your legs. What kind of rest is that?

"This is too much work. Is this considered resting? Your hands and feet have never stopped moving."

"Exactly, exactly. I might not be able to finish all this in an afternoon. Let's talk about whether it's possible. Wild King is not bragging."

"I don't believe it, I don't believe it, I don't believe it, it's fake, it's fake, Mr. Li is not human, he's an alien."

"Won't your brain and body get tired from such high-intensity work? Even if I lie down and read all day, I still feel so tired that I need to close my eyes and rest."

"When people say they're taking a break, they're just changing their job. There's a reason why some people succeed; it's even more impressive than a certain phone that can talk for an hour after just five minutes of charging."

...

Was Li Sheng tired? Yes, he was. Although chopping down those five trees seemed easy, and was actually quite easy, it was still a 20-plus-pound axe. His shoulders and arms were a little sore, which must be what tiredness felt like.

But mentally, he was even more excited. What did muscle soreness mean? It meant he was going to build muscle. Every time a muscle was torn, it would become stronger and he would become stronger. However, he rarely took fitness supplements because it was just his hobby, not his profession. Becoming a bullfrog would be impressive, but it was really unnecessary.

If it really turned into that, it would be too much of a waste of flesh and clothing fabric.

It takes a long time to accumulate experience and it can't be done overnight. He is very satisfied with his current physique.

No matter what he did, Li Sheng never made any unnecessary movements. It was as if every action was meticulously calculated, and every move he made had a reason. In half an hour, the stone drill was completed.

The stability is much better than before. I tried it out and it was very easy to handle. However, the stone is hard. Even with a stone drill, it would take a long time to grind through a quartz stone that is seven or eight centimeters thick.

Thanks to the efforts of the milk ball, the stone hoe has been transformed into a relatively regular long trapezoid, with one side being quite sharp, just waiting for the hole to be drilled.

Naituan took his tools to a place with seawater to work, keeping the rocks moist by sprinkling water on them every now and then while drilling.

Quartz is incredibly hard, and even with the right tools, the progress is quite slow. The hole we're drilling isn't a small one; it's a five-centimeter diameter hole. At this rate, I don't know if we can finish this today.

With the drill bit finished, Li Sheng's rest was over.

"Alright, the host's break is over now. Judging from the sun's position, there are still about five hours until dark. With that much time, the host plans to look around the area near the shelter to find suitable timber again. Besides coconut trees, which are straight, hard, and sturdy, there are many other trees with straight and sturdy leaves that are suitable for building timber."

After arriving near the shelter, Li Sheng soon found suitable timber, and quite a lot of it.

"Take these spruce trees, for example. As you can see, they are taller and thicker than coconut trees, making them excellent timber for construction. However, they are difficult to fell, and a lot of time is needed to process the branches after they are felled. So, the host needs to hurry up and try to complete our target this afternoon: find twenty spruce trees and cut them down."

Finding twenty spruce trees wasn't difficult, because there was a spruce forest right ahead, neatly arranged and waiting for Mr. Li. Each tree was robust, but not necessarily the thickest; all of them should be between twenty and thirty centimeters in diameter.

If he wore a hat and had his signature mustache, he would be Bald Qiang. Luckily, I'm not Bald Qiang, and there are no Xiong Da and Xiong Er here.

One by one, the spruce trees fell thanks to Li Sheng's efforts. Despite the enormous workload, the axe was sturdy enough that it hasn't been scratched at all so far.

Thanks to Li Sheng's efforts, quite a few viewers did indeed take a liking to his pink shorts.
