The newcomer named "Mosquito" is really good at carpentry.
Lao Bai and Fang Chang used steel bars as rulers to compare the boards that hadn't been sawed for a long time. He took a saw alone and made a pile.
What's more, these boards still have buckle edges, which can be easily put together to form hollow brick grooves in all directions.
In a short time, a lot of moulds for making bricks came out.
"You can't handle the wood well. Look at this... Mushrooms are growing fast." The mosquito wiped his sweat, leaned the saw against the side, looked at Fang Chang and Lao Bai and asked, "Is this enough?"
"Enough is enough! Thank you, brother. I'm very helpful!" Old Bai patted the mosquito on the shoulder with a happy expression.
The mosquito looked shy and gave a dry smile.
"You're welcome! Just let me know if you need anything."
Old Bai smiled and slapped him on the shoulder.
"Good! I remember, you are welcome next time!"
Mosquito: "..."
With molds, it is much easier to make mud bricks.
Laobai and Fangchang put a little water on the yellow mud collected from the river, rolled it into a thick mud and poured it into the mold, put it in a square shape on the ground, and then put some charcoal in the middle of the gap, and plaster the surface of the mud brick.
This is how Lao Bai learned from the video of survival in the wilderness.
When the first layer of bricks is almost dried, they change the direction, continue to stack the second layer, and stack them one by one until the bricks are higher than the head.
When the work was completed, Lao Bai carefully lit the carbon in the brick stack, let the fire start from the middle, and then gradually swallowed the whole brick stack.
"Can this thing work?"
Looking at the "mud pile" with smoke, Fang Chang wiped the sweat on his forehead with his muddy arm, which looked like he was crawling out of a cesspit.
The image of Lao Bai is not so good, and he has more carbon dust than him, just like climbing out of the coal mine.
"Who knows, I have to wait and see."
He was the first time to burn this thing. When he was young, he just watched adults do it. How could he know whether this method would work.
Everything can only be seen tomorrow.
"Come on, let it burn here first."
"Let's go to the cement kiln and have a look. I think we are very close to the finished product. This time, the force of the air blast should be stronger to get a bucket out before going offline!"
On the other hand, with the help of [WC really has mosquitoes], Gushi and Yeshi finally completed the improvement of the Nth generation fishing gear.
They replaced the original cylindrical structure with cage structure, and replaced the weak wooden strip with solid reinforcement, and reinforced the main structure of the trap again.
Never mind the fish. Don't leave when you come in!
The three went to the lake together and planned to try again.
It looks very happy.
As for Chu Guang, he still pondered over the skills of bacon.
Although there is still no great progress
"Dear manager, what are you doing here?"
Hearing the sound coming from one side, Chu Guang stood up from the front of the bacon rack, patted the carbon ash on his hands and looked aside. He saw [scrambled eggs with tomatoes], looking curiously at his bacon rack.
If I remember correctly, this guy seems to be a chef graduated from New Oriental?
Thinking of this, Chu Guang's eyes suddenly brightened.
"I'm studying how to make bacon... You've come at the right time. From now on, you will be the cook of Outpost 404!"
As he said this, Chu Guang didn't give the player a chance to speak at all. He looked at him seriously and continued.
"The situation we are facing now is very serious. In addition to the construction of surface outposts, we have to store enough food for the 100 compatriots who will arrive at the surface later in the winter."
"I need your help!"
Scrambled egg looks silly.
The chef is OK
In reality, he is a cook. Before going online, he fried two dishes before handing the spoon to his colleagues. Unexpectedly, he had to do his old job again in the game.
Is this equivalent to a life changing player?
It took him a long time to open his mouth.
"But... what can I do for you?"
"Good question."
Chu Guang looked at the bacon rack beside him.
"I tried to smoke meat, but the effect was not ideal. I need you to solve the problem of food storage... I read your information, and the organization said that you have experience in handling food, right?"
Scrambled Eggs Stunned.
"I know a little, but games are games after all - I mean, I'm not sure my experience works here."
Thinking that this is the game world, Brother scrambled eggs temporarily changed his mouth, but it seems that NPC didn't care, probably because the program has automatically ignored the reality related elements unrelated to the game.
"It doesn't matter. I need professional advice," Chuguang said, looking at the bacon rack beside him. "Please help me to see what's wrong with my bacon rack."
Looking at the wooden shelf in front of me, scrambled eggs fell silent.
Rather than saying what went wrong
It is better to say that everywhere is a problem.
"Well... first of all, the bacon must be cooked in a closed environment. I'm afraid your roasting method will scorch the outside of the bacon. What's more, the meat is spiced with spices?"
"A special kind of tobacco."
"Tobacco leaf?!"
"Well," Chu Guang nodded when he looked at the scrambled egg in surprise. "This is an inland area. Salt is very expensive. The local survivors use this tobacco leaf rich in aromatic compounds and tar to replace salt, which is crushed and smeared on the food surface. By heating, the antiseptic material is mixed with the oil on the food surface to achieve the antiseptic effect."
Can it be like this?!
Scrambled eggs surprised everyone.
Some aromatic compounds can indeed be used as food preservatives, but this is the first time he has heard that they can be eaten.
Maybe you won't die without overdosing?
But his intuition told him that this smoking process was almost equivalent to fighting poison with poison
"In fact, you can smoke meat even without salt... but the flavor is not very good. I don't understand the method you mentioned, but the smoked food is not suitable from a healthy point of view."
The term "scrambled eggs" is euphemistic, because I heard that NPC has a preference setting, and only when the preference is high can I take on hidden tasks.
In reality, he rolled his eyes.
"You don't need salt?!" Chuguang was stunned.
"Hmm... Microbes need water to survive. Smoked meat is essentially drying the water in the meat to achieve the effect of dehydration. With salt, the effect will be better, the storage time will be longer, and the flavor will be better. But if not, it can be handled properly."
"Of course, if the fat content is high, dehydration will be troublesome... It depends on the specific meat."
At this point, the scrambled egg paused for a moment, looked awkwardly at the nearby bacon rack, and whispered.
"But no matter what the situation is, you haven't sealed it... it's certainly not good."
If you can pickle food without consuming such strange tobacco leaves, it is undoubtedly a happy event for the outpost.
However, Chu Guang still had some doubts.
Even if the survivors of Beite Street are ignorant again, since they can survive on this waste soil to the present, they will not even make mistakes in this survival skill.
What is the problem?
However, Chu Guang does not intend to think about such a troublesome thing for the time being.
One reason is that he is not so free.
What's more, NPC has solved everything. Why should players do that?
"Very well, you have the glorious and arduous task!"
I clapped the cute new shoulder hard.
Chu Guang solemnly handed over the work of bacon to [scrambled eggs with tomatoes], told him about safety issues, and then left happily.
pretty good.
Another problem has been solved.
Now that the food problem has begun, should I try to recruit more players to improve productivity?
With these hands alone, we may not be able to build the wall of the sanatorium until the end of the month.
Just as Chu Guang was thinking about this, a cheering of excitement came from not far away.
"Bull review!!!"
"Shit, it's finally done!"
