Yang Xiaoxiao's reputation has improved quite a bit. Although she had many flaws before, the coconut incident at least proves that she has the qualities of hard work and perseverance.
He wasn't particularly outstanding; he mainly relied on the contrast with his peers. This time, without his own team, Wang Yao's true nature was exposed, and no one was there to help him block out unfavorable comments in the live stream. In such a short time, he had already been labeled as a "submissive man."
The more Wang Yao was criticized, the more Yang Xiaoxiao benefited. Many fans expressed concern and advised Yang Xiaoxiao not to be deceived by such a sycophantic man.
Yang Xiaoxiao deserves better; even her previous "borderline streamer" label has been ignored.
After finishing lunch, Li Sheng and his daughter, who had both lost their abs, lay under the shade of a tree, looking at the blue sky and the sea, letting their minds work for a while before putting their bodies to work.
It takes half an hour to walk from here to the shelter. There are five coconut trees this big here. It's not realistic to move them one by one. Even if he's strong, he can't carry several hundred kilograms of things. He plans to process the coconut trees here first.
"There are two of us living here. The streamer doesn't plan to make the cabin very big. A small apartment of 30 or 40 square meters is enough for two people."
This is another boast. Thirty or forty square meters? In the wild? Isn't that ridiculous? In the wild, it's already quite good if you can build a few square meters of sturdy buildings. A thirty or forty square meter wooden house in three days? That's really audacious.
Li Sheng dared to say it, but no one dared to believe him.
After resting for a while, Li Sheng's stomach finally felt better, so he picked up an axe and got to work. Nai Tuan also had her own task: to find a suitable stone and a shady place to make a stone hoe. This allowed Nai Tuan to help him and also gave her some exercise.
"Do you know how to make a milk ball?"
Naituan recalled the rocks she had seen near the reef when she was picking seafood, searching for suitable ones in her memory.
The advantage of having an extraordinary memory is that you can copy everything you've seen into your mind. When you need something, you can just search for it in your memory anytime, which is very convenient and saves you from doing so much useless work.
“I know. My dad told me about it when he read me bedtime stories. He talked about how people used to make all sorts of tools from stones. I can do that too, and I guarantee I can make them really well.”
Live broadcast room.
"This is eye-opening! Who tells bedtime stories like this?"
"Some experts say that bedtime stories can benefit children's brain development. Is it because my child is so smart that he is told good bedtime stories? I will arrange bedtime stories for my child right away."
"The bedtime stories for babies who are several hundred months old are Snow White and Cinderella."
"My child's bedtime story is a pink hair dryer."
...
Naituan closed her eyes, basking in the sunlight, like a projector flipping through memories of the morning. The scene froze on the second time she opened clams to eat. Next to the clams was a rock about the size of her father's foot. Judging from the pattern on its surface, it was probably quartz, which was very hard and would be perfect for making a hoe.
After finding it, he immediately got up, put on a sun hat, and walked towards the rock, which was about the size of Li Sheng's foot lying there.
The sun hat is very large; from this angle, it can almost completely cover the entire Naituan. This stone cannot be used directly as a hoe; it needs to be broken and shaped.
The flatter side is used for digging, but it's not sharp enough. She has to tap and sharpen that side before it's usable.
The other side is thicker, and the milk ball plans to drill a large hole in the back so that the hoe handle can pass through, making it more sturdy.
Quartz is very hard, and drilling a hole by hand would take a very long time. She thought she should make a stone drill first so that it wouldn't be too tiring.
It took Naituan an hour to sharpen one side of the drill bit, and then she found a suitable stone to make a drill bit and sharpened it to a point. But she couldn't do it by herself anymore; she needed her father.
Li Sheng was also quick in processing the coconut trees, having already separated the tops from all of them, leaving only the straight trunks. The trunks were also trimmed by Li Sheng with an axe. The shortest trunk of the coconut tree was more than ten meters long, but he didn't need to build the house that tall and wide.
So a height of about three meters is enough. This way, space and wood are not wasted and the living space is not too cramped. He himself is 1.8 meters tall, and he used a fishing line to compare the length to 1.8 meters.
First, he folded it once to get 90 centimeters. Then, he marked the 90-centimeter position on a piece of wood that Li Sheng had split with an axe to make a long ruler. After many more folds, he gradually made it more precise and made a one-meter ruler. Although it may not be 100% accurate to one meter, the error is very small.
Moreover, for Li Sheng, the difference between a meter and a ruler is not important. A meter is just a number indicating the length of a distance. His purpose in making the ruler is to prevent errors between pieces of wood. Whether the ruler is one meter, ninety centimeters, or one hundred and ten centimeters is not that important.
The entire construction of the log cabin was based on it as a measuring tool; comparing it with its scale was sufficient.
While the wooden house was a bit of an overstatement, this move was truly impressive.
Live broadcast room.
"They actually made a ruler! The operation is so simple, but most people wouldn't think of it."
"In this kind of environment, most people wouldn't think of bringing out a ruler; they'd just compare and see if it's about right."
"But can something made so roughly be acceptable? There must be errors."
"There is definitely some error, but it's still very impressive. This makes it easy to measure distances."
...
Backer also felt a glimmer of hope. Although he didn't believe that Li Sheng could build a wooden house, his gaze kept uncontrollably drawn to Li Sheng's live stream.
The production team has repeatedly reminded viewers that the main live broadcast room should also consider other contestants. It shouldn't just have one attractive contestant; there should be others to compare with, in order to stimulate the audience's senses.
Mr. Li plans to build this log cabin seven meters long and six meters wide, so he needs a lot of six- or seven-meter-long logs. The diameter of these coconut trees is about twenty to thirty centimeters. Roughly calculated, he needs about fifty six- or seven-meter-long logs. His ideal building materials are coconut trees or spruce trees. He has seen quite a few spruce trees in the forest. In summary, to complete the construction of the entire log cabin, including windows and doors, he needs twenty logs.
He now owns five treated coconut trees and is preparing to cut them all to his desired length with an axe.
