Chapter 86 The Chicken Coop is Completed
Seeing Zhou Ziwen busy building the yard, Chen Qiaoyi stopped chatting and came out to help.
Liu Lingling was also tactful. Seeing this, she said goodbye to them and returned to her own youth home.
"What is Liu Lingling doing here?"
Although he had some guesses in his mind, Zhou Ziwen still asked out of curiosity.
"Hehe, she said she wanted to eat fish and asked if you could exchange some for her." Chen Qiaoyi said with a smile.
"Oh, it's pretty much what I guessed." Zhou Ziwen nodded.
"But my sister didn't agree. She said she wanted to ask you what you think first." Chen Qiaoyi said.
"Just agree to it. It's okay to exchange one or two. If you can earn more money, you can go to the county town to buy two pieces of cloth to make clothes for you when you have time." Zhou Ziwen said nice things to make Chen Qiaoyi smile.
Zhou Ziwen is the most favored youngest son in the family. Why is he favored? Isn't it because of his eloquent mouth?
Coupled with the experience of twenty or thirty years in the previous life, dealing with a little girl doesn't require any effort at all.
Look, before he even took any action, the girl was already deeply moved.
If Chen Shiying hadn't finished her work and came out to help, the two of them would probably have moved to another job in the house.
"Ziwen, is there anything we can help you with?" Chen Shiying rolled up her sleeves, ready to get to work.
"Well... why don't you all learn how to weave bamboo fences?" Zhou Ziwen thought about it and didn't want to undermine their self-confidence, so he arranged a relatively easy job for them.
It is relatively simple to weave bamboo fences. You just need to place the bamboo strips vertically and then weave them together horizontally with bamboo strips. It is very easy.
The one done by Zhou Ziwen is a little bit difficult. The bamboo is sliced into strips with consistent width and thickness. If you have never done this before and don’t master the method well, the strips will be very ugly. If you don’t do it well, you may hurt your hands.
But for Zhou Ziwen, this is relatively simple. After all, he is a martial artist. Although he relies on automatic practice to practice martial arts, his control over strength is real.
For others, it requires a certain amount of experience to complete, but he can replicate it by just watching how others do it.
While cutting bamboo strips, he also took the opportunity to improve his bamboo weaving skills.
【Bamboo Weaving LV0(15/50)】
Bamboo weaving is very simple. Although Zhou Ziwen had never done it before, his skill level improved very quickly from the very beginning because of his mastery of strength.
In just a short while, it has already risen by half a level, and there is no sign of weakening.
By the time it was almost dark, his bamboo weaving skills had broken through level one, and some simple bamboo weaving techniques emerged in his mind.
Bamboo products such as winnowing baskets can also be made, but they will probably look a little ugly after they are made.
With Zhou Ziwen's guidance, the Chen sisters completed their task well and had already woven a bamboo fence that was five or six meters long.
Seeing their own works, the two sisters felt a great sense of accomplishment, and even their sore waists felt rejuvenated.
"Let's stop here for today. I estimate that it will be completed successfully in two days."
Zhou Ziwen stretched and said with a smile.
The progress was not slow, but not fast either. The main reason was that Zhou Ziwen was not in a hurry, and he was not in a hurry anyway.
It is also a wonderful thing to stay with the two sisters and chat with them.
He even wishes he could work for two more days!
"That's great! The little chicks finally have their own home." Chen Qiaoyi said happily.
Chen Qiaoyi likes small animals very much, whether it is the chickens or the puppies at home.
Compared to her, Zhou Ziwen was much more perfunctory. At most, he would feed the baby when he remembered. If he didn't remember, it would be fine. Anyway, with the Chen sisters watching over him, nothing would go wrong.
Therefore, his breeding skills and proficiency have hardly improved.
…
In the next few days, Zhou Ziwen was busy building a chicken coop.
The stones for building the chicken coop had been prepared long ago. Zhou Ziwen put the stones together one by one to form a chicken coop built entirely of stone.
All you need to do is install a door and lock it, and you'll be safe.
As for whether someone would pick the lock and steal the chickens, Zhou Ziwen didn't think so.
After all, he is not deaf. At such a close distance, any slight noise would wake him up.
Not to mention there is a dog at home.
Although this dog is only two days old, this does not affect its hearing, which is its signature skill.
The fence of the chicken coop was also completed with the joint efforts of Zhou Ziwen and the Chen sisters.
Zhou Ziwen went to the mountains to cut down some small trees, stuck the trunks into the ground as support, and then tied bamboo fences to the trunks, and a simple chicken coop was completed.
The reason why it took three days was mainly because Zhou Ziwen went fishing.
Since he had promised Chen Yang and Liu Lingling, he did not delay and went to the river after work the next day.
I was lucky that day and the total amount of fish I caught, big and small, was eight kilograms.
Chen Yang and Liu Lingling were not picky and took them all, regardless of size.
The two of them bought the fish together, and as for how to divide it after they get home, that is their business.
There were eight pounds of fish, and because some of them were small, Zhou Ziwen gave them a discount, charging them 60 cents per pound, for a total of four dollars, and he didn't want the change.
As a result, Chen Yang and Liu Lingling were very happy, and Zhou Ziwen was even happier.
After all, he only spent a little time and earned four dollars in less than two hours, which was equivalent to several days' work points.
According to the aunties and grannies in the village, based on work points, they can only get about 100 yuan a year, which is only about 50 cents a day.
The big laborers in the village get a higher salary, basically more than 200 yuan a year, which is about 60 or 70 cents a day.
"Brother Ziwen, we finally built the chicken coop." Chen Qiaoyi hugged his arm happily.
This is the back of the house and no one would pass by, so Chen Qiaoyi was able to be intimate with Zhou Ziwen without restraint.
As for Chen Shiying, although she wanted to give a lecture, she couldn't say much because Zhou Ziwen was present.
Then she planned to educate her sister properly after returning home.
However, since childhood, Chen Qiaoyi has been accustomed to her sister's preaching, and it goes in one ear and out the other.
"Yes, let's put those chicks here later. This will be their home from now on." Zhou Ziwen also smiled.
"I'll go right away."
Chen Qiaoyi was impatient and didn't wait any longer. She immediately ran back home, put the chicks in her backpack, and ran back in a hurry.
"Hehe, little chicks, this will be your home from now on. You must grow up quickly. When you grow up, I will have eggs to eat."
Chen Qiaoyi caught the chicks and gave them instructions one by one.
