Chapter 167 - 167 167 Bite the Bullet and Go Ahead
167: Chapter 167: Bite the Bullet and Go Ahead 167: Chapter 167: Bite the Bullet and Go Ahead The planned structure wasn’t too complex—after all, there were only a few sewer outlets to deal with.
When the time came, buying a few pipes and connecting them to the sewer system would do the job.
The creek was too small, and Zhao Guang worried it might clog and affect the drinking water supply.
So Zhao Guang planned a septic tank at the very bottom.
“Such a large septic tank would take at least several years to fill up with just three manure machines.”
Zhao Guang nodded in satisfaction.
A few days later, whether it was cleaning the septic tank or digging a new one, that would be a problem for another day, as there was no hurry.
So, that was the plan, but there were quite a few things missing.
After giving instructions, Zhao Guang returned to Earth.
“Cement, shovels, probably need a ladder too, forget it, just buy a whole set.”
While thinking, Zhao Guang ended up running to the building materials market and bought a set of everything.
It even made people think Zhao Guang was about to start up a decorating crew, and a novice one at that.
When he returned again, Zhao Guang saw that the two women had almost completely grasped the blueprints.
To know why, just look at the designs they sketched on the ground.
The complexity of these designs was even greater than that of the original blueprints.
Although the blueprints for the prefab houses were indeed a little simple, the learning and research abilities of these two seemed a bit too strong.
True to their law background, their intellect was streets ahead of the average Earth person.
“Master, you’re back.
Are we starting the digging now?”
Zhao Guang nodded, “Let’s start now, right from here.”
“I’ll help too, I want to help!” Jeana happily picked up a shovel and began digging into the ground.
The tiny figure holding a shovel bigger than her body created quite a cute contrast.
“Just be careful not to hurt yourself.”
“Don’t worry, Master, I’m very strong.”
Indeed, she was very strong, truly a beastman.
Zhao Guang watched Jeana’s seemingly clumsy but actually efficient actions, surprisingly effective.
Such strength surpassed even that of construction workers.
Was this really a child?
This was merely a Foxman; if it were a species known for their strength, how much stronger would they be?
“Master, I’ll help too.” Beside him, Xi Fei also picked up a shovel and started digging without paying attention to anything else.
However, her movements were much faster than Jeana’s.
“Alright, no need to rush.
As long as we finish it by tomorrow.”
Because the custom-made water tank would only arrive tomorrow.
The water tanks Zhao Guang requested weren’t welded, as welding equipment was likely unusable anyway.
He needed the type that you just plug in, then seal with rubber and glue.
Even though it was prone to problems, repairs wouldn’t be too difficult.
But they weren’t readily available, so they had to be made first.
Zhao Guang paid extra so they would be delivered tomorrow; otherwise, it would take even longer.
Deciding to proceed, Zhao Guang also picked up a shovel and started to dig out the sewer and septic tank.
“Dig the sewer at an angle so it inclines downward; be careful.”
Zhao Guang suddenly spoke, and the two responded from afar; by now, they were out of sight, having dug underground.
Zhao Guang had just realized that if it was not at an angle, how would he clear a blockage inside later?
Too much hassle—better to dig the channel even deeper.
Later, he’d seal it with concrete, covering it up from the ground, which should solve any issue with odors.
Perfect, Zhao Guang thought to himself.
“Lord Zhao Guang, is that you?
What are you doing?” Suddenly, Zhao Guang heard a voice from above.
Looking up, he saw a human patrol soldier, someone he recognized, named…
what was his name?
“Oh, it’s you.
I’m just preparing to build a house here, starting with the sewer.”
Dig up the sewer?
What is a sewer?
The soldiers looked curious.
They had heard of city sewers, but never that a private residence would need one.
Besides, what’s this about building a house here?
“Commander, there’s a situation here.
We’ve found a beastman and a half-demon!”
Suddenly, someone nearby shouted loudly, alerting everyone.
“Wait, wait, wait, they are my slaves, currently helping me work.” Zhao Guang leaped up, jumping directly out of the hole.
From afar, he saw Xi Fei confronting two human soldiers.
And not far off, Jeana, who had just emerged, was also baring her teeth at these people, with her canines fully exposed.
Seeing how fiercely cute she looked, one could only hope she wouldn’t pounce and bite.
“Is it you, Lord Zhao Guang?
These, are these your slaves?”
“Yes, they are my slaves.” Zhao Guang lifted his hand, and a shimmer of light briefly illuminated their foreheads.
It was a symbol, not clearly discernible, but indeed signifying their status as slaves.
“Lord Zhao Guang, these aren’t of the human race, so could you explain where they come from?”
Although they asked, the soldiers were already relaxing.
After all, Zhao Guang was a noble.
It wasn’t uncommon for nobles to have servants and slaves of various races; rumors were plentiful.
“How about this possibility: I bought them from the beastmen.” Zhao Guang spoke, his head lowered.
“Bought from the beastmen, and you do business with them too?”
“Given that we’re in the border area, do you suppose there’s a chance I want to buy some Holy Spring from them?”
“You managed to get your hands on Holy Spring?
Impressive.”
“So, that’s the situation,” said Zhao Guang, brazening it out.
“Understood, but we must report this situation, that’s alright, right?”
Zhao Guang exhaled in relief, though he wondered what kind of story this fellow had come up with.
“No problem, just report directly to the Yars Commander, it’s better that way in case we get attacked later.”
He intended for the two of them to show up on the human side eventually.
But he hadn’t anticipated it happening so suddenly before the house was even built.
Yet, it was normal, considering this was a frontline area.
Building here was probably too ambitious.
If not for Zhao Guang being in a special situation now, he would never have considered building a house here, nor would it have been feasible.
This matter indeed needed to be reported.
“Speaking of which, I need a few extra hands to help set up the house.
I’ll go with you guys to the camp.” The camp was filled with lots of energetic guys, perfect to help out a bit.
