The planning for Xindu Town was officially finalized after Li Xueying's brother entered the Micro Realm.
As expected of a professional landscape designer, he quickly finalized a design policy that was convincing and set the direction for the future of the town.
The town remains centered around the current campsite, close to the Night-blooming Forest for easy access to supplies, but a road has also been specially built leading to Clear Lake.
Chenghu is easy to reach, as there are no resources along the way, so we will focus on the direction closer to Yebolin.
However, the town's activity center was still located within the current camp area because many resources are currently located there, especially those in the time acceleration zone, which are immovable.
In addition, housing must be located near a water source, and several more wells will be dug for use.
The functional areas of the town have been clearly defined, separating residential areas from planting areas. However, each household has a yard where they can grow their own things.
The town's reasonable capacity is tentatively set at around 1,500 people, as there may be residents who do not live in the town for an extended period in the future.
For example, Hou Yu's family, Hong Gui and Li Sen spend most of their time on the island in the middle of the lake. Several border residents also frequently visit there. Jiang Bo, on the other hand, spends most of his time at the West Border River camp.
"The project is divided into three phases. The first phase involves housing construction, supporting public facilities, and landscaping," said Li Xueying's cousin. He clearly divided the area with a few simple strokes, and then the rest was just a matter of time.
They mainly use wood as the material for their houses, and some also use stone for the foundation.
Fortunately, they tamed a few more elephants, which made moving the books much easier.
If I had chosen the material duplication shop back then, I wouldn't have to worry about materials at all now. I could just keep duplicating the materials, and it would only take about a month to gather all the materials.
Although it's a pity, no one really regrets it. The material duplication room always feels like cheating, which takes away a lot of the experience and fun.
Yunshi is working diligently on the design, striving to complete the initial engineering design drawings as soon as possible, while he has entrusted the design of some individual buildings that will not expose the existence of the micro-world to the studio.
Yun's studio has already started up and is currently handling three projects simultaneously, including one worth tens of millions of yuan. He is extremely busy with each one.
Fortunately, reality is different from the micro-world; work in the micro-world does not affect reality.
While Yun was rushing to finish the blueprints, Chen Yang and his team had already started frantically transporting materials.
Chen Yang participated in almost all the work. He was responsible for everything except the volcanic ash, and when it came to logging, he was worth ten people by himself.
While others might take ten minutes to chop down a tree, he finishes in less than a minute on average. If he didn't have to constantly sharpen his axe, he would undoubtedly be even faster.
Chen Yang chopped down three trees, then went to move stones, and moved more than half of a stone mountain on the Mo Plain away.
When everyone first saw Chen Yang carrying a boulder as tall as a person and running at full speed, they were all amazed, but they got used to it afterward.
As for the grinding and cutting work, having strength wouldn't be of much use, so Chen Yang didn't participate.
He works so hard because others are paving an easier path.
It doesn't need to be flat, just free of obstacles and large potholes.
Elephants alone were not enough; the transport efficiency was still too slow. So they built two freight wagons that could be pulled by two horses at the same time, with a change of horses each time.
Once the roads are improved and the obstacles are cleared, the carriages can be put into use.
Because of their simple structure, the freight wagons were built quickly, but the progress of road construction was still somewhat slow.
Chen Yang was worth ten men, getting most of the men in the camp to move stones and fill in pits, speeding up the process of clearing a road.
The resources in the micro-world are quite abundant. The land in the forest they are currently cutting down is very fertile. Once this forest is cleared, they can plant crops, killing two birds with one stone.
Some of the more valuable wood was reserved for Yu Xuan and the old carpenter to make furniture. The rest was used to build houses.
Polishing and cutting the stone was a rather meticulous and troublesome task, and since no one had much experience, they could only learn by trial and error.
Fortunately, they didn't plan to build a very elaborate house; just having a basic shape would be fine.
Besides stones and wood, there were only bricks.
Making bricks is a very time-consuming task. Each brick has to be molded, fired, and then transported away.
They found a new place to fire bricks, built a workshop there, and worked in shifts, firing bricks day and night, producing kiln after kiln of bricks.
Time always flies when you're working; a month can pass in no time.
We've now entered the hottest period, and everyone's working hours have been forced to be shortened, especially for outdoor jobs.
The snow-capped mountains have become the most popular destination, and everyone who goes there brings back about 500 kilograms of ice, allowing people at the camp to enjoy ice even in the height of summer.
Some food was also taken to the snow mountain to be frozen. They built a snow house at the Four Gates of the snow mountain specifically to store some of the ingredients.
Xia Yue is the happiest person now. Many of her cake recipes require refrigeration and freezing, which used to be only possible in winter. Now she can simply ask someone going to the snow mountain to bring them to her and then bring them back, which is very convenient.
Xia Yue researched many cakes, and her pastries were very popular. Girls and aunties followed Xia Yue to learn how to make pastries. With this skill alone, Xia Yue was already considered a professional. Just making pastries and jams for all the people of the world was enough to keep her busy.
As summer approaches, many jobs become impossible, so they can only prioritize indoor work, such as making household items and parts.
Even so, there was still plenty of time, so various extracurricular classes sprang up again, and the trend of micro-entertainment summer programs flourished in schools.
Yu Xuan's wood carving class has always been a mainstay in the micro-world, but the class is mostly made up of elderly people.
Second only to Yu Xuan's class is Xia Yue's baking class, which also shows an extreme trend: females outnumber males, with only two men: Li Sen and glass master Rael.
The calligraphy class, fitness class, martial arts class, etc. that followed were all very popular.
After work, everyone had plenty of free time, which they used to pass the time. Almost everyone participated in hobby classes, even Chen Liu and his few talented friends.
The newcomer, Yin Weilin, had already finished his honeymoon and integrated into the micro-world. He also liked the micro-world very much and did not act like a rich man. He was very meticulous in his work.
After Yin Weilin's honeymoon ended, Jiang Bo and Ye Wen's honeymoon began, Jiang Yining and Yun Hu finally officially confirmed their relationship, Ye Wu and Ye Yan even planned to get engaged, and Hong Gui and Li Sen were also preparing to get married.
It's the height of summer, yet the air is filled with the scent of spring.
