Chapter 40 Burning Bricks and Building

"Lord Lane said at a glance that I am a person capable of great things, so he entrusted me with this arduous task."

Lin Mu put his hands on his hips and said to Chen Yan proudly.

"Ah, yes, yes, then why are you here looking for me if you, a man who can do great things, don't repair the toilet?"

"Aren't I sharing the blessings? When something good happens, I will think of you first and come to you to complete the task together."

"I don't think it's a good thing to be sent to repair toilets, and I haven't finished planting the fields yet. You should enjoy this blessing for yourself."

Chen Yan waved his hand, signaling Lin Mu to go away quickly, so as not to delay his farming.

Seeing Chen Yan like this, Lin Mu stopped pretending. He hugged Chen Yan's arm and cried:

"Brother, help me! I really don't know how to fix toilets. If I can't complete the task, my favorability with Lord Ryan will be lost!"

"You don't want to see your good brother being targeted by the protagonist of the game, and finally abandon the game."

Chen Yan looked at the tearful Lin Mu, felt a chill in his heart, and quickly wanted to break off Lin Mu's hand.

"Put your hands away first! Who asked you to take random tasks just for rewards? Besides, you can't repair the toilet, can I?"

Lin Mu did not let go, but hugged him even tighter.

"If you don't promise me, I won't let go! It's better to have someone to help me than to do nothing alone."

"And you are not helping in vain. Lord Ryan said that as long as players participate, they will issue elf coins according to their contribution."

"Please, my sweet giegie~"

At the end of the sentence, Lin Mu even shook Chen Yan's arms, and his voice became extremely numb.

"First of all, I beg you, please don't disgust me. I promise you, why don't you? Please take your hands off me!"

Chen Yan felt goosebumps all over his body. How did Lin Mu become so aggressive in the game? He is not like this in reality.

Everyone lets themselves go after entering the game, right?

"If I had promised earlier, it would be over. I still have to act coquettishly for you. I didn't expect you to be so good at it."

After Lin Mu heard Chen Yan agreeing to himself, he immediately let go of his hand and said with a disgusted expression.

"Mosquito-repellent tadpoles, don't water them yet. Please spray them with a water gun to kill them!"

Chen Yan turned to the mosquito-repellent tadpoles that were being watered and said.

"Yo?"

Mosquito-repellent tadpoles looked at Chen Yan suspiciously.

Aren't you two still posting just now, why are you attacking him now?

"No, no, we're joking."

Lin Mu was really afraid that the mosquito-repellent tadpole would take him seriously, so he fired a water gun at him.

But he was too worried. Ryan had told these Pokémon a long time ago that they were only responsible for watering the cultivated land, and they didn't need to listen to other orders.

Chen Yan naturally knew this, so he said it deliberately to scare Lin Mu so as not to disgust him all the time.

"Let's stop making trouble and be serious. Thank you very much for coming to help me. Do you think the two of us are enough? Do you want to recruit a few more players?"

"We definitely have to recruit people. Just the two of us will have to build it until the end of the Year of the Monkey."

"Lord Ryan said that if you need anyone, you can go to Clerk White to get it."

"That also has to attract players, and NPCs can do some work, and we have to study the technology by ourselves."

Chen Yan pointed to Xu Ruofeng who was watching the fun and said:

"I don't care about others, first pull Xu Ruofeng over here, he watched us laugh for a long time there."

"no problem!"

Lin Mu met Xu Ruofeng through Chen Yan, and he was not familiar with him at first.

But men, after going out to wash their feet a few times, they will get to know each other.

Under the persecution of the two, Xu Ruofeng also joined in.

The three of them decided to check the information first after going offline today, and officially start building the toilet tomorrow.

Time soon came to the second day.

As soon as Lin Mu went online, he couldn't wait to share his learning results with the other two people.

"I watched a carpentry teaching class during the day, and also watched a few videos of building toilets in the wild. I have generally mastered the construction process. Just wait and see me show off my skills!"

"Why do you watch the carpentry class? Didn't we say in the group that we want to use bricks and tiles to build toilets?"

Xu Ruofeng asked puzzledly.

"When did you say that? Why didn't I know about this?"

Lin Mu even had a question mark on his face.

"It's broken, I forgot to drag you into the group! I said, why are you silent in the group during the day!"

It was only then that Xu Ruofeng remembered that he didn't pull Lin Mu into the group chat.

"What do you mean? You even started a group behind my back?"

Lin Mu felt isolated.

"No, this group was created by Ruofeng before. There are only five old players in it. We often discuss the game in it after we go offline."

"Today I was too busy discussing about repairing the toilet, and I forgot to remind Ruofeng to drag you into the group."

Chen Yan explained.

"So you are planning to use bricks and tiles to build a toilet? Then my carpentry class was in vain? Why can't you use wood to build a toilet?"

Lin Mu couldn't accept that he wasted a whole day.

"In the beginning we also considered building toilets with wood, after all, there are plenty of wood reserves, but then we thought that wood is afraid of water, it is easily eroded by excrement, and it will rot and deteriorate in a short time, so we gave up this idea. "

"Then we thought of burning bricks and tiles to build toilets. The toilets built with bricks and tiles are not only strong and moisture-proof, but also more convenient to clean and collect excrement."

"It can also increase our experience in building houses with bricks and tiles, and we will be familiar with building our own houses in the future."

Chen Yan told Lin Mu the results of the discussion in the group.

Lin Mu didn't have any other advantages, he just listened to persuasion and was quickly persuaded.

"But isn't it troublesome to bake bricks? Are you sure the three of us can make them?"

"I checked some materials and videos during the day. In fact, firing bricks is not very difficult. You can just follow me."

Chen Yan led them to a muddy field and directed them to dig mud into the barrel.

Although Lin Mu didn't know the connection between the silt and the bricks, he did it anyway.

After the three of them dug a pile of mud, Chen Yan used the mud to build an uncovered cylinder with an air inlet at the bottom.

Then, the dead leaves of the branches and leaves placed in advance were ignited inside, and the mud was quickly dried with heat.

Such a mud kiln is almost formed.

Then put the cut wood neatly in the mud kiln, light it with fire and start to cap the mud kiln.

He used silt to pile a cone on the top of the mud kiln, and when the temperature in the kiln rose high enough, he blocked all the openings and kept the wood stuffy inside.

The rest is left to time.

"Okay, follow my method and pile up a few more mud kilns."

"Bricks can be fired in this way?" Lin Mu asked in surprise.

"No, your bricks are made of wood? We are burning charcoal. How can we burn bricks without charcoal?"

"Huh? Why not just use coal?"

"Good question! Why don't we use it? Is it because we don't want to? It must be because there is no coal!"

Chen Yan said angrily.

"Um, well, I'll give the lord a suggestion on digging coal later."

Lin Mu said sarcastically.

"That's a matter for the future. We still have to burn charcoal now, and we can use charcoal to burn bricks tomorrow."

"We have to wait until tomorrow? Then what should we do after we finish building these mud kilns?"

"You can first use wood to polish the mold for firing bricks, and then find suitable clay to make brick embryos."

Chen Yan assigned them the next task.

By the time they finished all these tasks, it was already afternoon.

"Phew~ I'm finally done with my work."

Lin Mu was so tired that he couldn't even straighten his waist.

"We have too few people. If we pull in some players and NPCs tomorrow, we won't be as tired as today."

"Okay, I'll go to Clerk White tomorrow to ask for someone. It's still early for me to go offline. What are you going to do next?"

"Ruofeng and I will definitely continue to farm. As for you, didn't you take a carpentry class for a day, so you can apply what you have learned and continue to repair the house."

It's not impossible to repair a house. It just lets those who say I make trouble see what I can do after a day of training!

Lin Mu was full of confidence at this moment!

"Are you here to make trouble? Why did you dig a hole in the middle of the wooden bed?!"

"Sorry, sorry, I thought this was the toilet."

Lin Mu was about to cry but had no tears at the moment. He had learned so much knowledge!

After three days of hard work, Chen Yan and the others finally succeeded in firing the first batch of red bricks.

Although the quality of this batch of bricks is not good due to various problems such as insufficient drying time in the shade and improper firing heat.

But in the end it burned out.

And they also made some cement from plant ashes.

Next, you can build the toilet.

The videos about toilets that Lin Mu watched finally came in handy.

He directed the players and NPCs to quickly build the first public toilet.

"Look, my lord, the toilets we built are all made of red bricks and cement, which are durable, waterproof and corrosion-resistant."

Lin Mu explained to Ryan who came to check and accept.

"We separated the left and right with a wall and divided it into men's and women's toilets. Considering that most of the residents sat down to use the toilet, we did not use squat pits, but used toilets."

"Because there is no sewer system in our territory, the toilet does not have a flushing function, but a wooden bucket is placed underneath to facilitate the collection of excrement."

Ryan listened to Lin Mu's explanation, looked around the toilet, and nodded with satisfaction.

Although this toilet looks very simple, there are many problems.

But being able to build a brick and tile toilet in just a few days is beyond Ryan's expectations.

As for those problems, anyway, this toilet is also for transitional use, and it will be demolished and rebuilt in the future.

Ryan plans to re-plan the town when he has time later.

The current Yinghuo Town is indeed a bit dirty and messy, and it doesn’t even have a basic drainage system.

"You did a very good job and lived up to my trust in you."

"Let the remaining toilets be built in this way. In addition, due to your outstanding performance, I decided to reward you with the right to use the farmland first. After you complete the construction of other toilets, I will issue that special reward."

Ryan patted Lin Mu's shoulder and said in an appreciative tone.

"Thank you for your reward. I will fight to the death for the development of the territory!"

Lin Mu said solemnly.

"Damn it, how can Lin Mu lick better than me?"

Xu Ruofeng whispered to Chen Yan.

"It's too modest for you to say that. In my opinion, you two are the same. Don't talk about anyone else."

"You don't understand, can licking the protagonist of a game be called licking? It's called a necessary means to conquer the game."

"Besides, licking the characters in the game is better than licking the people in reality. At least the NPC in the game will increase the favorability. In reality, people will only call you a dog lick!"

After hearing what Xu Ruofeng said, Chen Yan couldn't refute it for a while.

What he said seems to make sense. How about I try to lick it in the future?
Chen Yan was thinking secretly when he suddenly heard Ryan calling him.

He quickly came to the side, bowed and saluted:
"Lord, what is your order from me?"

"I heard [Bo Yan Gui Mu] say that you have helped him a lot and contributed a lot in the process of building the toilet. Tell me, what reward do you want?"

Chen Yan glanced at Lin Mu when he heard the words, and found that the other party was blinking at him.

How about it?I mean enough.

Chen Yan nodded slightly to express his gratitude, and then said to Ryan:
"Lord, I don't need any reward. It's my honor to share your worries."

What the fuck?

Lin Mu and Xu Ruofeng both looked at Chen Yan in surprise.

Unexpectedly, this guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes also learned to lick people!

"It's good for you to have this kind of heart, but you have to be rewarded for your merits. How about this, in addition to the spirit coins promised to reward you before, I will give you another chance to use the circle bear."

"Opportunity to use Circle Bear?"

"To put it simply, you can borrow my circle bear for a battle, but it cannot be used to help you conquer Pokémon."

"Thank you for your reward, I will definitely cherish this opportunity to use it!"

Chen Yan said in surprise.

This is a level 30-plus Ring Bear. It is the most powerful Pokémon in Lord Ryan's hands. He can actually borrow it once. Not much else, at least it is invincible among the player community.

The most important thing is that the level of the circle bear will definitely increase in the future,

Thinking of this, Chen Yan secretly made up his mind that he would not take this opportunity lightly unless it was absolutely necessary.

"In addition, I have another task for you. The toilet has been built, and now there is an urgent need for a place to store a lot of excrement. This place will be built by you."

Ryan released new tasks for players.

"Understood, we will definitely complete the task as soon as possible!"

Chen Yan and the others nodded in agreement.

Isn't it just building a septic tank? They now have bricks and cement, so building a septic tank is not easy.

After the players left, Ryan looked at the toilet and fell into thinking.

Now the toilet has been built, and the septic tank has been repaired, and the only thing left is the transportation link in the middle.

Yinghuo Town has no drainage system and can only rely on manpower to transport excrement.

And this task is not suitable for players to do.

They all come from modern society, and they must be resistant to this kind of thing in their hearts.

If Ryan forced them to do it, they would certainly do it just to play the game.

But it is true that there is no mistake, and it is not that Ryan does not have a better candidate.

He said to his followers:

"Inform Clerk White and ask him to post a notice recruiting manure pickers. Successful applicants will not only be provided with three meals a day, but they will also be able to work in lieu of taxes!"

"As you order, I will notify Lord White right now."

Players may think feces is dirty, but Aboriginal people don't.

They have lived in this dirty town for so many years and have long been used to it.

Moreover, the salary offered by Ryan is very generous, so many people will definitely apply for the job.

"Solving another problem, and watching the territory gradually improve, I really feel a sense of accomplishment. The key is that the creation points I get every day have also increased!"

Ryan glanced at the creation point on the panel, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

[Side mission: Build and repair territorial houses (mission completed, reward has been distributed)]

The prompt that popped up suddenly startled Ryan.

"Good guy, I almost forgot that there is a side quest. I only rewarded two chances for the primary lottery draw. Anyway, there are no good things, so just draw and forget it."

"Double draw, let's go!"

【Congratulations on your draw】
