The gaps between the stones surrounding the pond are filled with thick green grass. The leaves are curved, and raindrops hang from the tips of the leaves, falling diagonally.

The drizzle was swaying unsteadily, falling into the pond, splashing onto the wooden board and printing small brown dots, which faded in the river breeze.

The cabin that has not yet been capped is based on pond stones and spreads from the water to the water. Two small beavers come in and out with wooden sticks in their mouths, constantly adding bricks and tiles to the cabin.

It is unimaginable that with the joint efforts of four beaver spirits, most of the entire hut covering an area of ​​more than ten square meters was completed in less than ten days.

Seeing that the roof would be completed in two or three days, the chief designer of the entire project, Da Heli, was called out by Liang Qu.

The big beaver sat on the ground dragging its tail. It stretched out its tongue and licked its paws, combing and smoothing the few raised hairs on its head with saliva.

After sorting out the rules, the big beaver walked out of the wooden house and came to the pond to meet the landlord.

Liang Qu looked at the old clam by the water and motioned for the old clam to come forward and communicate with him.

As a monster, the Old Tridacna seems to be useless, with no advantages except high defense and long lifespan.

But its mental strength is truly strong, and it can communicate at a shallow level with intelligent spirits through its thoughts, which serves as a transfer station for him to communicate with beavers.

Moreover, Liang Qu strongly suspected that the beaver family was attracted by the old clam.

That day, the fat catfish and a group of water animals came to the pond. The beaver family acted very frightened, and their first reaction was to look at the old clam.

This point is very subtle.

The beaver subconsciously regards the old clam as a target for help.

Perhaps the old clam traveled to Daze every day and happened to meet the Beaver family who were looking for a place to spend the Binghuo Day. After mentioning it, things happened naturally.

It is even possible that the two parties have known each other for a long time.

After living for a thousand years and spending most of the time in the swamp, it is not impossible to meet some safe and harmless spirits.

Otherwise, Liang Qu didn't quite believe that Heli would just find a garden to settle the whole family in without knowing the personality and habits of the owner of the house.

He asked Old Tridacna to be responsible for communication, also considering that both of them are water animals, so the mutual trust will be higher.

As the old clam kept bubbling, the big beaver kept nodding.

Heli Shipyard appears to be on track to open for business.

If it can be listed, it would be no problem for the Heli family to stay there forever.

However, if you want others to work, you cannot avoid one thing - remuneration.

You can't work for nothing if you help others build things.

The old clam relayed the beaver's request.

Liang Qu asked, "What do you want?"

People like silver, not because it can be used as food, but because money can be exchanged for food.

There is no problem in giving banknotes to Liu Quanfu, but Heli may not like it.

It cannot take the banknote and go to the bank to exchange it for silver, and then run to the market to exchange it for something it likes.

That's too much trouble for a beaver.

The big beaver stood up straight, waving its two paws up and down, holding something in the air and putting it under its mouth to chew on it.

Then it moved to Liang Qu's feet, picked up his palm with its paws, clenched it into a fist, and raised it in front of Liang Qu with its five toes spread out.

It looked back, thought for a while, then turned back one of its toes and stretched out four toes.

Liang Qu looked at his fist and suddenly understood after listening to Old Tridacna's explanation.

"Four metal rocks the size of my fist every month?"

The big beaver nodded sharply.

For a family of four in total, one dollar per month?

“Can’t gold and silver nuggets work?”

The big beaver shook his head, his cheeks trembling.

It picked up a stone from the ground, brought it to its mouth, chewed it into powder, and then dropped it to the ground. Then it pouted, revealing its two bright orange front teeth.

"Gold and silver are too soft to chew?"

Liang Qu was thoughtful.

The most important treasure of the beaver family is their teeth.

The reason why the giant beaver's teeth are orange-yellow is not that it doesn't brush its teeth or pay attention to hygiene, but that the composition of the beaver's teeth is very different from that of ordinary animals, and it contains a lot of metal elements!

Elements do not appear out of thin air, they need to be replenished, and eating metal ores is the main method.

In addition, beavers' teeth continue to grow throughout their lives. If not polished, they will grow too long and poke their heads.

Ordinary beavers are enough to gnaw trees, but strange beavers cannot do that, so they need some "hard food".

Gnawing ore is a combination of polishing and ingestion.

Although gold and silver are also metals, their texture is too soft and is not even as useful as ordinary stones.

Liang Qu agreed immediately.

As for metal ores, there are a lot of them in Daze. Even if they can't be found in the water in a short period of time, Senior Brother Lu Gang must have a lot of them in stock.

Blacksmiths at the level of Langyan martial arts masters have no shortage of various ores around them.

It's just that metal ore is not cheap. Beaver is more efficient, and the construction cost will be doubled...

But it doesn't matter.

Efficiency is king.

I'll go to Liu Quanfu another day to ask for two drawings and start work on both lines!

It was originally supposed to be one ship every two and a half months, but now it is one ship a month!

I think I can maximize the benefits while not getting too tired of the toad.

After receiving Liang Qu's approval, Beaver twitched his tail, lay on the ground and ran back to the cabin on all fours to tell his wife and children the good news.

From now on, not only will they have a monthly supply of ore, but they will also have a safe shelter!

For beavers, building things is a part of life, the only difference is that the things they build need to change shape.

The four beavers rubbed each other and conveyed their joy. The big beaver ran back, pointed at the cabin, raised its legs and stamped on the ground, stretched out its paws to dig holes in the soil.

"Want to dig a hole by the pond?"

The beaver originally only lived for a month and a half and left after the Binghuo Day. Now it wants to live for a long time. It is instinctive to drill a hole on the edge of the pond to connect the inside and outside of the house.

Liang Qu looked around and agreed, as long as he asked the beaver not to dig outside the wall.

The original purpose of establishing the pond was to provide a place for old clams and fat catfish to enter and exit.

For this reason, the entire pond was built very large, with a light radius of five feet, fifteen meters, and a diameter of thirty meters. It was roughly slightly oval in shape and covered an area of ​​more than an acre.

Next to the pond, there is a circle of land paved with pebbles, planted with a few shrubs, and then a two-meter-high wall. The total area is almost equivalent to the area of ​​a three-yard courtyard.

The cost was not large. Liang Qu was already an official at the time and there were no residential buildings nearby. The land for expansion was almost half sold and half given to him.

The main force in the pond pit is a few water beasts. It costs a lot of money to hire craftsmen to build the walls and lay the ground.

What a magical life.

There is a large garden with a pond, three courtyards, someone is responsible for eating and washing, and you live like a real landlord.

When he went to his master's house for the first time that year, he saw almost the same scene, but the scale was more exaggerated.

Entering the fourth courtyard, there is a large courtyard with a pavilion in the middle of the lake. There is a horse garden, a dog house, an ice cellar, and a small martial arts arena. There are servants coming and going.

I couldn't be more envious.

Thinking about it carefully, I am really the replica of Master now.

Back then, there was Yang Dongxiong in Pingyang Town, and now there is Liang Ah Shui in Yixing Town.

How do you feel when others look at you?
