Chapter 113 Adjustment of Management Measures
bump!bump!bump!
The prisoners wielded shovels, hammering nails into the wood.
There's nothing we can do about it.
Li Moss only managed to capture one hammer in total.
He opened the [Leshanshui] map and zoomed in on the foot of the mountain to the west of the tribe.
Three rectangular platforms are shown on the map.
As seen on the map, these three high platforms are all located at the foot of the mountain to the west of the tribe, east of the natural passage.
They are all more than ten meters wide and more than twenty meters long, and they are tilted at different angles.
The three high platforms extend into slopes, all pointing southwest, forming a rough symmetry with the mountain to the left of the natural passage.
Li Mosi suddenly felt someone tugging at his clothes. He turned off the map and looked down at Zi Yi.
Zi Yi asked excitedly, "Master, should we give it a try first?"
The high platform is finally almost finished!
He couldn't wait to test the power of the log!
Li Mosi glanced at the platform, which was a full five meters high.
All the platforms were constructed from pine logs, with simple mortise and tenon joints and wooden nails used for reinforcement at the joints. Iron nails seized last time were used to reinforce key areas.
To ensure the platform could stably support the logs piled on it, they not only surrounded it with timber almost entirely, but also built many logs in the middle for support.
Looking through the gap behind the platform, it looks like a small house.
However, this space is not suitable for goblins to live in.
Because it was filled with tinder made from a mixture of pine resin, beech leaves, and fresh pine branches!
This is the result of Li Mosi's busy day.
Zi Yi didn't even call on the goblin warrior squad to supervise or train them.
All soldiers must keep a watchful eye on things, in case of any sparks!
"The nails are all driven in!"
"Check carefully! Make sure all the nails are in! Once you're done, take your tools and stand still!"
At the third high platform at the northernmost end, Kaken was directing all the prisoners to leave and stand to the side.
He and three other prisoners with fractured arms served as security officers, assisting Li Moss in managing the situation.
After he had inspected the platform twice, he walked up to Zian.
"Lady Enlian, all the nails are in!"
Zi'an frowned, feeling somewhat awkward.
Because the slave's demeanor really did resemble that of a wolf cub with its eyes open!
As for the rows of prisoners standing not far away...
Zi'an saw envy and resentment in their eyes towards the four safety officers.
They're not much different from wild animals!
They were just wild beasts that hadn't had enough to eat!
She felt that everything seemed strange after listening to her late teacher's words yesterday.
"And you, too, well, never mind. Let's just get through this for now."
They still have enemies to deal with!
Zi'an muttered to himself as he got up and walked toward the platform.
Kaken panicked at first, thinking he had done something wrong.
But hearing Enlian's seemingly random words, which didn't sound like she was blaming him, he felt relieved.
Zi'an walked to the side of the platform and pushed it with all his might.
She could sense that if she used all her strength, she could slightly shake the platform, but she could never push it over.
That's enough.
"Okay, you can go and rest first."
Zi'an gave the order and turned to walk back to Li Mosi's side.
"Master, all three platforms are very stable."
Li Mosi looked at Zi Yi, whose eyes were practically sparkling.
He waved his hand: "Go ahead. Tell the goblins to carry all the logs up there and try."
"Great! Master!"
Zi Yi excitedly ran to a spot not far from the goblin warriors and immediately gave the order.
With some time still left before heading home, the goblins quickly got to work.
Li Mosi had also wanted to test it for a long time.
Although he still couldn't find any trace of the enemy on the map today, he dared not relax his vigilance in the slightest.
We must expedite the testing and resolve any issues as soon as possible.
He has very little room for error now!
Watching a large group of goblins carrying logs up the slope to the high platform, Li Moss pulled Hagi Saint over.
"Um?"
The saintess, who had been lost in thought for a while, came back to her senses.
"Is it all set up already?"
What do you mean by "this is it"?
Li Mosi glanced at her: "This took three days to build."
The day before yesterday, we dug the foundation pit; yesterday, we buried the supports and processed the timber; and today, we spent the whole day building and reinforcing it before we finally got the platform erected.
If it weren't for potential enemies, he could have done many things in those three days.
The saintess was choked and unable to speak.
Does this craftsman even know that this is a rare sight these days?
It's rare to find so many people working together on one task in the city!
"you……"
"Master! We are ready!"
The saintess wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Zi Yi's shout.
He and Zi'an had already climbed onto the platform, and the goblins had placed the rolling logs on the shelf.
"I am coming!"
Li Mosi quickly pulled the saintess towards the high platform.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, I don't have hands!"
Although the saintess's hands were bound, she still managed to climb onto the high platform with Koyasu's help.
Li Mosi looked around and shouted at the prisoners watching the commotion not far away.
"Get away from me!"
Zi Yi also imitated this and gave orders to the goblins.
Everyone quickly retreated to a safe distance.
After confirming again, Li Mosi nodded to Zi Yi.
Zi Yi immediately waved to the goblin: "Push!"
"Wow!"
"push!"
With a jerk, the wooden frame stuck in the table collapsed, and the log rolled down!
Wow! That's fast!
"So much faster!"
The logs were visibly moving faster!
Snap! Bang!
In a very short time, the log collided with the steep slope on the other side of the passage, producing a dull thud.
The prisoners froze at the sight.
This is much more serious than what they are facing!
"My dear..."
Kaken clicked his tongue in disbelief.
Luckily, they didn't run into each other!
Otherwise, they definitely wouldn't survive!
"Wow!"
"That's amazing!"
The goblins began to cheer.
Now we're definitely not afraid of humans coming again!
Zi Yi smiled and ordered the goblins, "Quiet! Bring up more logs, then we'll go back for dinner!"
"Yes, Chief!"
The goblins immediately went to do it.
Li Moss stood on the high platform and shouted to the prisoners, "You did a good job. Everyone will have meat tonight!"
"Thank you, sir!"
"Thank you for your kindness!"
The prisoners cheered upon hearing the news.
After the cheers subsided, Li Moss continued, "Kaken, you four also did a great job. If there are any more constructions in the future, you'll be in charge for me."
Kaken paused for a moment, then knelt down.
"Yes, sir! I will certainly do as you say!"
The other three wounded slaves also knelt down, following his example.
"As you wish, sir!"
Zi'an didn't quite understand.
She walked over to Li Mosi and asked softly, "Master, will they no longer have to work?"
"They were never able to handle the tools in the first place."
Li Mosi spoke in a voice that could only be heard by a few people on the high platform.
"This kind of..."
Zi Yi squeezed his head between the two: "Is this how we choose the 'alpha wolf' among humans, and then have the alpha wolf manage the other wolves? Is that right, Master?"
The saintess was somewhat surprised.
"Are you really treating people like wolves?"
"Well……"
Zi'an scratched his ear.
"These people and wolves do seem to be not much different."
Ziyi grasped the theory quite quickly.
Li Mosi was somewhat surprised.
He nodded: "Ziyi is right, that's a good way to understand it. It's a good thing that you can apply theory to practice."
Zi'an remained silent, appearing to be deep in thought.
Before long, the goblins had set up the supports and logs on the three high platforms as planned.
Li Mosi took one last look at the map and led the team back.
Wow! Bean has grown taller again!
Upon returning to the tribe, the goblins cheered once again.
Ziyi also looked towards the fields.
Although Li Mosi couldn't understand the goblin's squeaking, he could see the condition of the fields.
The bean sprouts have grown taller and have sprouted many leaves.
The fields are all green.
"It's sealed off. Now we don't need to pull weeds anymore."
