Chapter 89 Transforming the Lighthouse
Walking around the lighthouse a few more times, Qu Mao thought over and over in his mind, but as a dead house who had just entered university in another world, Qu Mao couldn't think of any way to improve it.
But who is Qu Mao? Qu Mao is a person with a cheating system, if you don't understand something, just ask the cheating system.
Meditated in my heart: "Cheat the system, spend 1 cheat point to ask about the strategy of transforming this lighthouse, and want to make this lighthouse have a rainproof function."
The cheating system shows: "Nail the wooden boards into a waterproof roof, increase the distance between the roof and the iron pot, and the shielding range of the wooden roof is at least twice the flame range of the iron pot, so that the waterproof function of the lighthouse can be realized.
1 point of cheating is worth so many strategies..."
Qu Mao rolled his eyes, dismissed the hints of the cheating system, so as to avoid the cheating system from tempting himself to consume more cheating points. Call the staff of the civilian wharf at random, let him go to the small village of Mingang immediately, and call the carpenter from the carpentry workshop.
A few minutes later, the carpenter came to Qu Mao, and said with a bitter face, "Sir, what do you want from me? The villain has received an order from Mrs. Su Yan, an internal affairs officer, to produce 20,000 crossbows, and it has not been completed yet... "
Qu Mao said dissatisfiedly: "What can you complain about? Didn't the 20,000 crossbow bolts ordered by Su Yan pay the carpenter's processing fee? Did the carpenter's workshop ask you not to pay your salary? Did the territory be divided among each of you? Are you dissatisfied with 10 units of arable land?
My lord asked you to do some work, but you complained so much without even asking about the task. "
The carpenter hurriedly saluted and apologized, and said, "My lord, I'm sorry, this subordinate didn't mean it that way. What do you want to do? Please tell me."
Qu Mao said: "I want to add a waterproof shed to the top of this lighthouse..."
The carpenter hurriedly said: "My lord, the interior minister has tried twice, but it will be burned by the sparks or flames in the iron pot at night."
Qu Mao smiled and said: "That's because the shed she built was a thatched shed, and what my lord wants to build is a wooden shed.
Come on, let me tell you, you nail the three-meter-long planks together to form two large planks three meters long and three meters wide, then nail them together at an angle, bend down at an angle, and fix them with cross-pieces Together.
Nail four wooden pillars below, each pillar is reinforced with horizontal wooden strips, and finally a square with a side length of about two meters is obtained.
Then send the leader to climb to the top of the tower, hoist the ceiling up, and fix it to the top. "
While talking to the carpenter, Qu Mao picked up a stone and drew a sketch on the hard ground of the cliff.
The carpenter looked at the picture drawn by Qu Mao and said, "My lord, the herringbone triangular plate and the three-meter-high pillar are a lot of work, and I can let the little man go back and process it immediately. Fortunately, the wood and tools are ready-made. Not big."
Qu Mao said: "Nonsense, of course I know the problem is not serious, otherwise I wouldn't ask you to process it.
Go quickly, and ask a blacksmith for help, and nail a thin layer of iron on the ceiling plank near the inside of the iron pot, so that it will be safe.
In addition, find a few more people to help. After you go back, process according to my drawings. I will see the finished rainproof roof before tomorrow afternoon.
Call the artisans for me, even masons. "
The carpenter bowed his hands and said: "Yes, my lord! The villain will do it right away."
After waiting for a few more minutes, two masons came over and greeted Qu Mao.
I hope that you will take this bamboo and wood frame as the main body, and build a circle of stone walls along the bamboo and wood frame to enclose this lighthouse with bamboo and wood structure. Can you do it? "
The two masons walked around the lighthouse a few times and said, "My lord, you are building a stone lighthouse. If there are blueprints, there is no problem, but there are no blueprints now. Even if it can be fenced, the stone wall will not be special." Sturdy, prone to accidents…”
Qu Mao interrupted the stonemason and said, "You don't need to talk about nonsense such as no blueprints. Don't the earliest buildings have blueprints? Don't all buildings be tested bit by bit, and you start working now. I will let other stone materials The leaders will carry it over for you.
If you are worried that the stone wall is too high and the wall is unstable, you can try to support it with a few wooden pillars along the inside of the wall. Isn’t that all right? "
Two masons started to work at Qu Mao's request.
Qu Mao didn’t go anywhere, just stayed where he was and watched the two stonemasons work, and had lunch at noon delivered by the leader of Mingang Village.
Disliked that the two craftsmen took about two hours in the morning to lay a layer of stones around the base of the 5-meter-wide lighthouse. He felt that the work efficiency of the two masons was too slow, so Qu Mao went back to Mingang Village in person.
Called all the remaining three stonemasons in Mingang Village to the lighthouse, and called in ten more local people to help move stone materials and prepare and transport mud for bonding.
When it was dark, the stone wall outside the lighthouse was finally repaired to a height of 2 meters.
The reason why Qu Mao forced masons to build walls regardless of the practical effect is mainly because Qu Mao knew that once the stone lighthouse was approved by the cheating system, the cheating system would first gamify the stone lighthouse, as long as the cheating system gamified the stone lighthouse No matter how **** this stone lighthouse is, it will collapse if it can't last for a day, but after gamification, it will automatically be extremely strong. When it collapses depends on the durability of the stone lighthouse.
Maybe if you are lucky, you will be able to get a blueprint for the construction of a stone lighthouse.
Resting for a night in the first-order residential house in Mingang Village, Su Yan has already filled Qu Mao's first-order residential house in Mingang Village with the necessary furniture.
After breakfast the next day, Qu Mao went back to the lighthouse to oversee the work.
The five masons worked until lunch time, and actually built a stone wall around the nine-meter-high lighthouse. There are also circular steps built inside to go up to the top.
The carpentry workshop also delivered the rainproof wooden roof that Qu Mao ordered the day before. Qu Mao invited the leaders to hang up the rainproof roof. After installing it, there was a response.
The cheating system prompts: "Congratulations to the rookie host who built a stone lighthouse with a height of 10 meters using basic materials such as stone, wood, bamboo, iron pots, and iron nails. The reward for cheating is 50 points. This system will soon data fossil lighthouses, and Generate stone lighthouse construction blueprints."
Almost at a speed visible to Qu Mao’s naked eyes, this crooked stone lighthouse that may collapse anytime and anywhere began to merge with the cliff at the bottom, and its shape changed from a square to a circle. At first it was The square lighthouse with a side length of five meters at the bottom and a side length of two meters at the top, under the digitalization of the cheating system, turned into a circular lighthouse with a diameter of five meters at the bottom and four meters in diameter at the top.
Qu Mao pushed open the door at the bottom of the stone lighthouse and walked up the spiral steps to the top of the stone lighthouse.
It was found that the iron pot had become a large hanging stove, which was located in a circular windbreak wall around the periphery, and the rainproof shed on the top was also made of stone. There are a total of 6 expanded stone pillars.
The vertical height between the large hanging stove and the highest point of the rainproof shed is at least 5 meters, and the material of the ceiling is also tightly fitted stone without any gaps.
At the same time, the angle of the ceiling is relatively sharp. The conical ceiling hangs all the way to the outside of the windbreak wall, and the vertical height is only about half a meter. However, standing on the edge of the windbreak wall, you can't reach the edge of the ceiling with your hands. The horizontal distance from the edge of the roof to the windbreak wall is about one meter.
There is also a room of about 15 square meters at the bottom of the stone lighthouse, which is prepared for the watchman.
Seeing this stone lighthouse, Qu Mao was very satisfied, not to mention that he also obtained cheating points and the blueprint for the construction of the stone lighthouse.
Without hesitation, he took out the construction blueprint of the stone lighthouse from his backpack and chose to use it.
After returning to the ground, Qu Mao looked back and found that the entire lighthouse was 15 meters high including the ceiling, which was definitely enough for night navigation.
