Chapter 744 Survival in the Wilderness?
"Here we come, the pastoral life that everyone has been waiting for." Luo Quan stood at the junction of the plain road and the muddy mountain road, pointing his camera at the rolling green mountains in the distance.
"It's really like going into the mountains."
"The environment looks good, I feel relaxed."
"Luobao, which mountain is this in Yuzhou? Are there many people?"
"Looking at the muddy road, there are still a lot of tire marks, which means the mountains are not too desolate."
"So we're going to start farming today?"
"It is recommended to prepare a few more camera seats so that you can enjoy it from various angles."
"Awesome brother."
……………………
The barrage was making jokes, while Luo Quan was pedaling the tricycle hard.
The workers who transported the goods only sent her here. They said that the roads inside were too bad and it was difficult for motor vehicles to go there. No matter how much money they gave her, they would not go in.
Although this was obviously asking Luo Quan to increase the price, she did not accept this trick.
The road from my hometown's house isn't that far away, just a few hundred meters, and it's right at the foot of the mountain, so it doesn't cost much to ride in by yourself.
So Luo Quan paid directly, then moved all the tools to the tricycle and stepped on the pedals.
There was a lot of cargo and the dirt road was really difficult to drive on. It was quite laborious for people riding three wheels all the way in Luoquan.
"I... now... know... why it is said that if you want to be rich... build roads first."
Luo Quan stood up and heaved his body from side to side: "This road is so bad... it's like this. Cars can't get in and agricultural products can't get out. It's really not good for economic development."
"No way, do you feel like crying so soon? (Funny)"
"Go back before you enter the mountains. In this summer, mosquitoes will bite you to death."
“Promoting Chinese pastoral culture does not necessarily have to be done by oneself, it can be done at once.”
"Yes, there is no need to suffer for the sake of suffering."
………………
Luo Quan had previously said that fans didn't feel sorry for her at all, but no, the barrages of distress came out one after another, all urging her to return to the city quickly.
"Which of your ears have heard my complaints?" Luo Quan couldn't laugh or cry, "I just lamented the impact of bad roads on the rural economy. This amount of exercise is not even one-tenth of my usual training. I am not that delicate yet. ah."
While chatting, Luo Quan arrived at his old house.
Just on the side of the mud road, at the end of a road covered by bamboo forests and covered with grass.
Luo Quan turned the car around and drove straight in. After passing through the long and narrow forest road, everything in front of him suddenly became clear.
The old house is located in a bamboo forest. The three-meter-high earthen house has completely collapsed. Even a quarter of it has turned into dust. The remaining standing part looks precarious.
In front of and behind the house, there is a large piece of grassy farmland half a man's height, which adds up to at least one acre of land. It is said that these are my grandfather's lands.
If this were in the city, how much would it cost?
However, in the barren mountains and ridges that cannot be developed, such a large area of land is almost worthless.
"Let's take a look, this is where my grandparents and their parents have lived for decades." Luo Quan raised his phone and slowly looked around at the fans.
"I'll go. It's still desolate. There won't be any wolves, right?"
"I'm more afraid of ghosts than wolves."
"What age are you still afraid of this? If I meet someone, I'm not sure who I will be afraid of."
"Indeed, Luo Quan's martial arts value was considered a keeper in ancient times."
"Are you planning to laugh me to death?"
"Don't laugh, Luo Quan seems to be really planning to farm here."
………………
Luo Quan began to unload the luggage piled high on the tricycle onto the ground.
This time she came and bought a lot of tools, including tools for live broadcasting, farming, and building houses. She basically thought of everything that could be used.
"Family, the condition is worse than I thought. It will take some time to repair it. I think it will take about five days to make this place look brand new. What do you think?"
Luo Quan took out a one-meter-long hammer from his tool bag, leaned on it and said with a smile: "The first thing is to demolish this mud house that is no longer habitable, and then use local materials. Use the bamboo here to build a bamboo house.”
With that said, Luo Quan fixed the lens of his phone with a holder, then picked up the hammer and walked towards the earthen house.
"Tufang: Don't come over!"
"I have protected your ancestors from wind and rain for decades, and now you actually want to do this."
"Isn't there any need for rescue? I'm not done yet."
"Destroy it quickly."
………………
Luo Quan couldn't see the live barrage. She put on her gloves, stretched her waist, and then hit the earthen house with a round hammer.
With a "bang" sound, the hammer passed directly through the wall and brought down a large section of the wall.
She really didn't exert much force this time. In fact, the mud house had been exposed to the sun and rain for so many years, and it had long been in decay. After all, this kind of rural mud house could not be compared with modern reinforced concrete housing.
With only 30% of her strength, she hit a wall directly.
After discovering how easy it was, Luo Quan didn't stop, waving his hammer and hammering away.
"Eighty...eighty...eighty..."
"As expected of a girl with strange powers, a wall collapsed with just one hammer."
"I feel like I'm really good at it. This mud house has been here for decades, and it feels like it could be knocked down if I just push it."
"Indeed, it feels like it can be completely finished in less than an hour."
"Hey, Luo Quan, wearing a T-shirt, shorts and flip-flops, is wet with sweat and has a good figure. (Drooling)"
"unbelievable!"
"Baby, everyone is paying attention to Luo Quan at work. I really want to see the new swimsuit photos."
……………………
After working for more than ten minutes, under Luo Quan's random cloak beating techniques, the earthen house was smashed into evenly sized pieces. Each piece was big enough for even a junior high school student to hold.
After smashing it, Luo Quan wiped the glistening sweat on his face, took out a stainless steel folding wheelbarrow from his luggage bag, pulled apart and installed the various parts according to the instructions, and then began to transport the soil. .
There are more than one hundred pieces in total, and Luo Quan can transport two to three pieces each time and pour them into the bamboo forest dozens of meters away.
After going back and forth dozens of times, I finally got it all done.
It was much faster than the time expected by the barrage, and the collapsed mud house was completely moved away in forty minutes.
Now all that's left is abandoned farmland and dense bamboo forests.
Luo Quan pulled out an old newspaper and spread it out to sit on it. Sweat quickly fell on the newspaper, leaving round black watermarks.
It is indeed a bit tiring to do physical work in the summer, but fortunately, after being improved by the system, her body is far better than that of ordinary people.
Now she can easily run marathons. Although her speed cannot be compared with those of professional athletes, her endurance is no problem at all.
The physical work in front of me is actually not as tiring as I imagined, but the weather is too hot, and sweat can't stop flowing out even if I exercise even a little bit, and no amount of air conditioning will work.
No wonder the workers at the construction site like to work shirtless so much. They really can’t keep their clothes on.
Unfortunately, no matter how tired she was, a T-shirt and shorts were already her limit.
The only thing that made her happy was that her skin was thick enough.
After more than half an hour of hard physical work, her palms were only slightly red, and the blisters and broken skin that fans predicted did not appear.
If the skin is not injured or deformed, it is quite difficult to grow calluses.
Luo Quan once again wiped his face haphazardly with a towel, then unscrewed the 2L bottle of Nongfu Sanquan mineral water and took a swig.
It is said that this mineral water has quality problems, but these rumors have been refuted, and it has not been listed on the 315, which shows that it is still trustworthy.
Of course, if it wasn't too troublesome to buy from abroad, she really didn't plan to use domestic ones.
She used to support domestic products and felt that there shouldn't be much difference between domestic and overseas products.
But ever since the Laotan pickled cabbage incident came out, she was basically in despair.
Foreign food may not always be of good quality, but they impose heavy penalties, so the probability of quality problems is much lower than in China.
That is to say, the price is too expensive to buy, otherwise most people would probably choose foreign products.
It's one thing to support domestic products, but you can't treat Chinese people as fools.
At this point, Luo Quan sighed softly.
The barrage thought she was tired, and immediately became concerned:
"What's wrong, Luo Bao, why are you sighing?"
"Don't do it when you're tired, and rest more."
"Moving a mud house in more than half an hour is already a big deal. Are you going to just build a bamboo house today?"
"Don't be so tired that you strain your muscles."
………………
Seeing that the fans had misunderstood, Luo Quan showed a warm smile: "Thank you for your concern, but it's not because of this, it's another matter. It's not a big deal, so you don't need to worry too much about me."
It's not easy to talk about this kind of thing in the live broadcast room. Saying it will easily set off the pace, so she just found an excuse to get over it.
After resting for ten minutes, Luo Quan continued to get up, took out a saw, and prepared to saw the bamboo.
In fact, it would be more convenient to use a chainsaw, but this is not to be retro and return to nature, so the tools used by Luo Quan are the most common types, and if they cannot reflect the modern atmosphere, they will not be reflected.
There is no question of protecting or not protecting your own bamboo forest, you have to use it as it should.
Luo Quan threw off his flip-flops, stepped on the bamboo with his bare feet, exposed his muscular arms, and started cutting back and forth on the bamboo.
On average, one piece of bamboo as thick as a bowl can be cut every half a minute. After a few songs, Luo Quan saw nearly 30 pieces of bamboo, and during this period, he changed three saw blades.
"I'd like to call you ranger."
"It's really my own stuff, no matter what I do, I don't feel bad about it."
"What a wonderful bamboo, how many pandas can be fed?"
“Are there pandas in Yuzhou?”
“Isn’t this thing available to everyone in Shuzhou’s rural areas?”
"Indeed, that's how it is here. Every household has a panda."
"I'm curious what kind of bamboo house Luo Quan is going to build."
………………
After Luo Quan stopped, he looked at the barrage and said with a smile: "This is the content of our first issue of China in the Pastoral, which is the display of the mortise and tenon structure.
As a unique architectural structure in China, the mortise and tenon structure is strong, durable and beautiful in appearance. It is the crystallization of the wisdom of ancient construction workers.
The only disadvantage is that it is a little troublesome to prepare and not as simple and straightforward as nail penetration.
But as a characteristic of Chinese architecture, it must be shown to everyone here.
However, before we can create something, we have to go through a process first.
As the saying goes, a tall building rises from the ground. If a house wants to be stable, it must have a good foundation.
Therefore, our next task is to dig a hole and prepare to bury the bamboo piles. "
Luo Quan stood up and put his hands on his hips with a solemn look on his face.
To be honest, this was her first time digging. This thing looked simple, but it was actually very technical. Some people couldn't dig very deep even after a long time of effort.
She had never learned any related technology before, and it was probably not taught in agricultural universities. She didn’t know if there was any relevant knowledge in the system mall.
Fortunately, the system's shopping mall is indeed all-inclusive. Although it does not allow her to practice and ascend in a day, the life skills are all available.
This includes digging soil for farming and the like, and the heat required is also very cheap.
Speaking of which, if it is just to demonstrate the process of building a bamboo house to fans, laying a foundation is actually completely unnecessary.
Just put the bamboos together and secure them with ropes.
However, she planned to stay in the mountains for a while this time, and she also wanted to make videos for foreigners to see. She must reflect the characteristics of China and not be perfunctory.
Therefore, the bamboo house built this time must not only be beautiful, but also be solid and reliable.
Therefore, the foundation must be laid, and all aspects of the process are much more complicated than ordinary ones.
Thinking of this, Luo Quan couldn't help but feel a little tired.
It is really tiring for one person to do such heavy work by himself.
Not just physically, but mentally as well.
From video content, to shooting, to editing, I have to do everything myself, and the effort required is immeasurable.
No wonder Wang Xiaojiu is questioned about having a team and posing for photos.
It's really hard to convince the audience if one person can do all this rough work.
If it weren't for the live broadcast, Luo Quan's fans probably wouldn't have thought that she could build a bamboo house by herself.
Although there are many videos on YouTube of a person building an earthen house or a wooden house with his bare hands, they were all filmed over several months. Who knows whether modern machinery or construction teams were used to help.
The final product is indeed amazing, but whether it is real or fake is unknown.
However, Luo Quan's live broadcast of the whole process this time, fans can see every process, so there is no case of fraud.
As for the feeling of exhaustion in my heart.
It was the same when she was making a movie. She would have this kind of mentality every time she took on a task, but this love would not make any changes to the plans she had already made.
If you are looking for trouble, you still have to bite the bullet and continue to suffer.
She was never one to give up halfway.
