Chapter 171 Brick Making



"It's a place that can block wind and rain like a cave, but it's more breathable and light-permeable than a cave, and it's more comfortable to live in."

Zi Ye immediately said, "Then there's no need to build my own apartment. The female master and I can just live here."

"Then I don't want the house anymore. I want to live with the Mistress too."

Everyone wants to live with Tu Ling, but Tu Ling is definitely not happy about that. Although she likes beautiful women, she also needs private space. She will get bored if she stays with these handsome guys with long legs, thin waists, fair skin and good looks all day long.

"Alright, alright, stop arguing and start building the house."

"How do we build it?"

Tu Ling was silent for a while. She knew that the house had to be built with bricks. It couldn't be built like a chicken coop by just plastering some mud on it. If someone lived in it, it would collapse.

But where do we get the bricks?

Tu Ling felt a little regretful. If she had known that she would learn how bricks were made when she was a blogger, she would have done so first.

There was no other way. Even though Tu Ling was not sure how to build the house, he had to bite the bullet and give it a try.

Tu Ling found soil suitable for making bricks in the forest.

This mud is different from the mud that was previously transported to the small plain.

The mud on the small plain is black in color, the soil is fertile and has a soft texture, while the mud for making bricks is yellow mud.

The yellow mud is slightly lighter in color and slightly reddish. This kind of mud has high viscosity, high temperature resistance and good plasticity.

By shaping it and baking it at high temperatures, it can be formed into waterproof and strong bricks.

But that was all the knowledge Tu Ling knew, and he had to figure out the rest on his own.

A group of males started to get busy again, some carrying soil and some cutting trees.

Tu Ling picked a relatively thick tree and used the trunk to make a hollow rectangular wooden frame with two handles on both sides of the wooden frame. This was the mold for making bricks. Tu Ling made more than a dozen of the same size.

Because he was not sure whether it would succeed, Tu Ling decided to try it himself first.

The yellow mud was mixed with water, becoming firm and smooth. Tu Ling placed the mold on the cleaned ground and filled the middle part of the mold with yellow mud. Tu Ling pressed the mud tightly in the mold with his hands, then took a deep breath, lifted the mold and shook it hard. It turned out that the mud either stuck to the mold and could not fall off, or it was thrown off but broke in the middle due to excessive force.

Tu Ling scratched his head, wondering how to make the mud stick to the mold.

Looking at Bai Qi who was cooking in the distance, she had an idea.

He took some wood that had been burned into charcoal from the side of the pot and crushed it into black powder.

Tu Ling spread the powder around the mold, and demolding was indeed much smoother.

The prototype of the brick is pretty good, the next step is to burn it.

Tu Ling controlled the strength, jumping back and forth between under-firing and cracking, and finally after trying more than a dozen times, she found the best temperature for making bricks.

Looking at the first brick fired, Tu Ling felt a little proud.

Even more exciting than when she killed her first zombie.

The color of the bricks was redder than the yellow mud. Tu Ling knocked on them with his hand and the sound was crisp. The texture was hard. If you hit someone on the head with this, it would definitely be more effective than anything else.

The next step is to put it into mass production.

Tu Ling taught the orcs how to make bricks. Although the orcs were a little clumsy, they became more skilled after trying a few more times, and the bricks they made became more and more beautiful.

After the bricks are shaped, they will be roasted by Tu Ling. The baked red bricks will be moved to the small plain by the orcs and stacked into brick piles.

After this process, the brick problem has been completely solved.

In fact, Tu Ling originally wanted to take a break for a while before working again, but when she saw that the males could only sleep at the foot of the mountain every day, she thought it would be better to build the house as soon as possible and let them live in the cave.

Tu Ling picked out a few of the smartest orcs from a group of orcs and taught them how to build a wall.

After their house was damaged, Tu Ling specially asked them to build a chicken coop next to the residential area to practice.

But these orcs were surprisingly smart, and they built a very sturdy and beautiful chicken coop. As expected, there is no such thing as a naturally superior sex. It's just that they were not given the opportunity to show themselves. They were deprived of the right to show themselves as soon as they were born, and then they were suppressed by others all their lives and could not raise their heads.

To cover the roof of the chicken coop, Tu Ling also chose to cover it with a layer of wooden boards first, then put bricks on top, and finally paste a layer of yellow mud on the outside. This makes it more beautiful and stronger.

Tu Ling patted the male's shoulder and said, "You've worked hard. Let's go down and eat."

"It's not hard at all. If it weren't for Lord Tuling, we would still be stray beasts hated by all the orcs."

As they spoke, several males were so moved that they were about to cry. Tu Ling couldn't bear to see people crying, so he quickly sent them away to eat.

Tu Ling naturally followed him down, but saw Shi Yi holding a spoon in his hand and looking at her with resentment.

Tu Ling didn't dare to go over, without even thinking about why Shi Yi had that expression.

It has been a month since she opened up the new territory, and during this month, all the males in her camp were sent by her to cook.

That is, during this month, Bai Qishi and Yinhen and their companions just hunted, cooked and distributed meals every day, and could only watch their female teacher teach other males to make bricks and build houses.

If it were Tu Ling, she would definitely have opinions too.

It's simply a waste of talent.

But there's nothing we can do about it, since they cook delicious food.

After eating, the males jumped into the water in a swarm to wash the sweat and mud off their bodies.

The moment I went down, the crystal clear water in the stream instantly became turbid and dirty.

"Eh!"

Lan Jiao, who was resting in the water with her cub, did not notice their actions. She only realized it when the yellow stream water touched her body. She felt so disgusted that she immediately jumped into the portal and returned to the cave.

He kept washing his body and Lan Ling's body with the clear water from the mountain cave.

While washing, she complained to Tu Ling who was sitting on the stool: "They are too dirty! Can you let them go somewhere farther away next time?"

Tu Ling didn't take Lan Jiao's words to heart: "It's not dirty, it's just that the color of the yellow mud is a bit muddy. Besides, they work so hard for us, and I let them live outside. It's already too much."

Lan Jiao snorted, "You think this is modern times? Come on, you're a female. It's their honor to work for you! You even feed them and they'll have to live in the cave in the future. You're really flattering them."

"Yeah, baby."

Lan Ling looked at Lan Jiao in confusion, not quite understanding what he meant: "Chiu?"

"It's useless to ask you, you little thing who doesn't understand what people say." Lan Jiao tapped Lan Ling's nose lovingly, then looked around the cave and found that there was no one. Yin Hen and the others should be preparing ingredients for tomorrow's cooking.

An idea came to my mind.

"Wife, you haven't kissed me for a long time. Do you want to kiss me?" Lan Jiao looked at Tu Ling with anticipation, waiting for Tu Ling to kiss her.
